A simple correction for the ordinance. Those are replicated AIM-9 Sidewinders and AIM-120 AMRAAMs. They are not AIM-7 Sparrows, which have not been used by F-15's (or the rest of the USAF) since 2004/5'sh. AIM-7s could only be loaded to the 4 stations on the main fuselage; AIM-120s can be loaded to those same stations AND on the rails attached to wing pylons. I was a Maintainer on Eagles for 8 years before switching over to Raptors; 21 years later I am retired and enjoying videos of folks like yourself playing with miniature versions of those jets. These 90mm EDFs are just amazing facsimiles or the real jets; can't wait to finally buy one or 4.

[@aerospacematt9147]

Thank you for your service! Are you flying them now?

[@matdeeskbkn]

Thanks for your explaination. Really useful

[@jonbarnes7877]

The Freewing F15 is till one of the best looking 90mm jets out there IMO. From several angles, she looks downright brutish! In a good way! :)

[@romieiv]

fantastic video thank you so much for making it, it absolutely made my build very easy.

[@victorrcjets7660]

An oldie but a goodie!

James, keep coming with these videos

Awsum work. Most def my next build wd

[@randylovato7888]

Got mine last week did my 1st flight on Saturday... absolutely love it! Good job guys great plane for the money

[@skypilot23]

Must be quite the thrill- above my head both $ and flight field serious plane envy here

[@randylovato7888]

@@skypilot23 it's an amazing plane .. just did my 4th flight today if u get a chance to get this plane do it! I got the upgraded version

[@skypilot23]

@@randylovato7888 sadly it's not in the cards but I am living it vicariously through you. Haha. Tomorrow night my latest dream comes- blade 230 collective pitch night led helicopter. My niece brought me a hokey copter to repair and after that I just couldn't live without a new bird. Very pumped here too- enjoy! Oh yes and I got it's from these guys they are a premium vendor in my book.

Gorgeous , miss my F-15. Shame im not allowed any "bigger" models anymore :(

[@nathangarciamuro]

Awesome plane!!!! Shame I don’t have the skills to get myself one of those, I am still with trainers. :-(

[@RylandH-Airsoft]

I started with 2 trainers and then I got the parkzone t-28 1.1M. That’s one I really recommend it’s so easy to fly with and without safe!

[@LigthningII]

The build was fairly easy except for the rudder. The opening to receive the wires is much too small. I really had to work very hard to get the wires to fit the opening. Not sure what the solution is since carving up the original opening is probably not a good idea, since the contents in the opening are not known. Otherwise, good build and excellent plane quality. This experience taught me not to be hesitant to buy from the open box stock. A few minor cosmetic finishes was all I needed.

[@brianroberts5062]

In the past Freewing had different Fans for InRunners and OutRunners. This was in account of the different KVs of the motor. I don't know what they did with this jet.

[@CalebT_RC]

I really like the scheme of the P.15 that’s in the background on the left side and I would like some advice on how to paint my p15 like that too

[@MotionRC]

That was all rattle cans and frog tape. Started with silver as a base. Then just started masking for the white, black and blue.

[@CalebT_RC]

Thanks

[@kenyattacollins8517]

Where may I find tips on how to repair cosmetic damage to my Freewing F-15 received during shipping?

[@dariusrucker7854]

Any thoughts on 8s?

[@f900ex5]

What 8 ch receiver are you using?

[@justanotherguy469]

What is the difference between an outrunner and an inrunner motor? Can anyone recommend a video on KZbin that will explain the significance of the kv rating and other details?

[@tomspeed2000]

So lucky I found this company on Holland ;) for me Its hard to choice between F14 or F15 , but I will ask company to send RTF version if it possible for them cos I have no experience to install receiver and other parts..

[@shelbyseelbach9568]

If you don't know how to install a receiver, you are in WAY over your head with either the F15 or the F14. Should learn to walk before you try to run.

[@N2RIT]

Why does Motion website list the inrunner as a 1835kv this video is listing a 1680kv

[@djquick]

Why do RC manufacturers always make the nav lights blink?! No! Nav lights do not blink!

[@newbraskia.3992]

Will a Flysky FS-i6X i6X 10CH 2.4GHz AFHDS 2A RC Transmitter With FS-iA10B Receiver run this aircraft and or f14? Very nice aircraft!

[@aerospacematt9147]

It should (it’s a 10 channel Receiver). I have the FlySky Fsi6. I would really recommend a spektrum transmitter though because the flysky springs are WAY too loose in my opinion. With a spektrum, the springs have way more resistance, which is something that you would want for this model, to prevent over-corrections.

[@TheJakesdad2403]

Hello I was wondering if you have done a B2 build? If not please do that one. I've been looking for that for a long time.

[@shelbyseelbach9568]

They don't sell a B2.

[@melvinriverarcjet6544]

Whats the cg? Thanks

Go to product page on motion rc.

[@LeoH3L1]

Something looks a little off about the Freewing F-15, especially at the front end, the nose seems to droop down far more than the real thing, also the rudders look underscaled, and the decals for the rudder the EG and the 33rd are underscaled and misplaced.

[@phatbusted]

Hey, do U Brothers ship to Malaysia ? Or do U hv an Agent here already ?

[@pasmatrilubov6840]

Bro, dah dapat ke?

[@honestlyforreal6304]

Plz fix the rear shocks on these jets. They look fine, but they're crap.

[@briankmavpro5246]

Fat piggy needs a upgrade. V2 maybe? Lighter? Better edf? Main gear doors need to retract when gear is down otherwise they rip off if landing in grass or bumpy runway.

[@winnerwolf9546]

Had the same issue

[@craigseymour1099]

the white tipped missiles are AIM-120 AMRAAM MISSILES...NOT AIM-7 SPARROWS...SPARROWS ARE NOT CARRIED ON SHOULDER PYLONS...

[@MultiSkyman1]

Build video? This has been out for a while now?

[@MotionRC]

yup. Never had a proper build video from back when. Trying to make sure we have videos for every product we sell, 1 at a time

Hi, do you have in stock?,regards!!

Will be back in stock any day now. They are on the way for sure

[@jaimeocana6061]

@@MotionRC thank you!! I ll be waiting,this plane is amazing!!!

[@dunbar555]

shame the shape of the nose is wrong. otherwise great jet

[@AmericanSmallArms]

This is the main reason I haven't bought this model. I used to work on F-15Cs, and I can't get over how wrong the nose looks!!

[@eduardobaldin8475]

Made in China? Não obrigado.

[@deepspaceexplorer4265]

I wish it was a twin. All these scale details are moot with such a questionable shortcut. Twin jets should be twin jets.. Period..

[@shelbyseelbach9568]

Good luck with that. Period.

[@aerospacematt9147]

@Deep Space Explorer With more electronics for a 2nd EDF comes more size, And more price. If you want a twin, go check out the F-14 TWIN 80mm EDF
