Here are a few great flights flown with my Freewing 8S 90mm EDF F22 Raptor R/C Jet flown both at my local field 'Club Aeromodelisme Els Cards' and at a friend's field 'Club Aeromodelisme Ciutat de Reus', the last flight being flown on a very windy day!! :DDD

Shameless plug: if you want to contribute to my work, please consider having a look at some of my merch! ;)

Mind that although most of the jet is stock, I performed several modifications. Removed the infamous Blue Box and wing ribbon wires, passed individual leads to wing servos, mixed them all separately, removed pilot figure and nose gear light, installed a HE A3S3 gyro (which required physical servo reversing one stabilator servo, inverting motor and pot wires), added a green LED to make a fake HUD reflection effect, airbrushed the canopy to make it look more golden, like the fullscale one. Need to pick the sun at the right angle to show up though!

More details on my setup coming (soon?)!
