Freewing F-15C Eagle Super Scale High Performance 90mm: Flight Review/Radio setup

[@hamiltonshangar]

Very in Depth and very nice flight! Smoooooth

[@BDTennessee]

Thanks bro!

[@ltfadl1]

I just picked me one this past weekend, brand new never flown, but it still has the outrunner setup. I have an FMS Ill be putting in it soon. Nice video, thanks much.

[@BDTennessee]

FMS will wake it up for sure! Ducting/EDF Hatch will need to be sanded to fit...

[@jerryc1491]

Love the f15 myself awesome looking aircraft thanks for the setup tips, keep flying!

[@BDTennessee]

F15 for the win :) Your wlecome and Thanks for watching Jerry C!

[@ShadowOppsRC]

Sweet buddy! She is a looker and flies well too! The newer power system makes her come alive. I love my China hobby line black series batteries i use on one of my drones!

[@BDTennessee]

Thanks Shadow! I agree its air authority is great and new power system makes it move! CNHL have worked well for me too :)

[@mikessi]

Excellent work BD. Looks like you have the approach and touchdown figured out. Very nice.

[@BDTennessee]

Thanks Mike!

[@antolinray4275]

Muchas gracias por tu vídeo, es de gran ayuda😊

[@BDTennessee]

Thanks for watching,glad video helped!

[@jetman899]

Thanks, BDT, you're helpful and resourceful as always.

[@BDTennessee]

Thanks Jetman for the positive words!

[@rhelton72]

Man that is sweet!

[@BDTennessee]

I agree!

[@victorrcjets7660]

They're really needed this upgrade, She was called a piggy...

[@BDTennessee]

Agreed! I couldnt even see if being agile with some of the motors they started with on this jet...

[@eqrc7587]

Great flying BD !! Man it’s going to be a while before I take my 15 up, but can’t wait 👍🏻✌🏻🖖🏻

[@BDTennessee]

Thanks EQ! Get that bad boy up there :)

[@petervancleemput1991]

Dear sir, thank you for posting this review. You convinced me as to buy this model airplane F15 Freewing. Greetings from Europe, Belgium. Let's hope the war in Ukrania ends. It's only 2500 kms from here.

[@BDTennessee]

Thanks! You will like it for sure! Be safe my friend!

[@islandrc-duke1972]

cool jet and flight,great review

[@BDTennessee]

Thanks Duke!

[@ljhobbylife]

Great review! I picked one up used and beat up, been fixing it and getting it ready I’m glad you put the CG you are using I was too neutral at the 118mm from the book, wanted a bit of forward cg for Maiden. I did install the lighter Viper 90 fan in it along with esc to add that reverse thrust since my field is not the greatest. Hope to Maiden it soon.

[@BDTennessee]

Awesome LJ! Which motor does yours have? Also ,there is a 3D nozzle mod now that makes a noticeable difference in thrust! Did some testing recently with F15 FMS setup and reverse thrust. Definitely a upgrade!

[@ljhobbylife]

@@BDTennessee That’s the same setup I have in it the FMS vipers 90mm with reverse thrust. Where do I find the files for Nozzles would be something to mess with! I was worried about CG until I seen your video at 125mm she CG’s better.

[@BDTennessee]

@@ljhobbylife files are on Motion RC Customer Community Facebook page. 125mm should be good in air too :)

[@ljhobbylife]

@@BDTennessee Thanks, I’ll try that mod!!

[@BDTennessee]

@@ljhobbylife let me know how maiden goes and if you need any help my friend! Thanks!

[@old-rcplane-phart]

& great idea on the nose wheel!!! 👍👍👍

[@BDTennessee]

Thanks!

[@jlester42]

Definitely a fan of separate channel for nosewheel steering. I use the same setup for all my trikes that I can. But I also add a mix that reduces the nosewheel rate when throttle is increased. Less sensitivity as speed increases during takeoffs.

[@BDTennessee]

Thats a good idea too!

[@willieanderson3819]

First off I’m so glad someone finally gave what mm is in %, thank you for that so much. Second just wanted to ask if your flap and elevator mix was preferred or was it in the manual

[@BDTennessee]

Flap to elevator settings is what it needed to set attitude right with flaps.

[@rcpilotwill]

Nice flight pilot

[@BDTennessee]

Thanks Pilot Will!

[@jerrywillfong5770]

Awesome content 👍

[@BDTennessee]

I appreciate that Pilot Jerry!

[@georgewatts9361]

Great video

[@BDTennessee]

Thanks GW! If you got any questions let me know!

[@craigbeaven8445]

I like mine also , It fly's a bit on the heavy side for it's size , And that's OK with me , Grate job BD. !!!

[@BDTennessee]

Thanks Craig! Yeah i dont mind the weight either...

[@impactrc6427]

Awesome flying man! I hope one day I can get to your level. I’m still flying most of my edfs with safe on. I been in the hobby 1.5 years. I get nervous without safe.

[@BDTennessee]

Thank you! Keep practicing and always learning :) Once you start flying off SAFE you will progress faster. If you like flying with it and having fun thats all good too!

[@acm1pt374]

I use safe for take off and landing and I was fine with my first one from a few weeks ago, the Eflite twin 40mm F14, until something went wrong with it and it would crash after about a minute of flight time. No response at all even on safe, so now I'm more nervous for the next one lol but I have to keep trying. Today it was completely destroyed, I did good when it responded well, and I refuse to start with a Habu.

[@mizz9841]

​@@acm1pt374why do you refuse to start with a Habu?

[@timdoss2569]

Nice flight and great details!

[@BDTennessee]

Thanks Tim!

[@tughillrc6327]

very good job on the review, Enjoyed watching👍🤠🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🗽🎬🎥✔

Thanks Tughill on the feedback!

[@jcb6713]

good looking F15 ! ...

[@BDTennessee]

I agree,thanks JCB!

[@pjhubik]

Great video, thanks for the info. What about your expo settings? I’m setting mine up now. Can’t wait to fly it!

[@BDTennessee]

Zero expo on all surfaces.

[@enzok6414]

Another great channel in the making! I hit the sub and the bell. One question regarding the battery choice. Do you think there is enough room for an SMC 8100mah weights 910g(120g heavier than your 5000)? Maybe 2 more inches back?

[@BDTennessee]

Looking at the dimensions the height will get you. Also you can really push back much further,especially to offset 120grams more. Side note: i wouldnt run that heavy of a battery...

[@BDTennessee]

Thanks for the sub and support too :)

[@old-rcplane-phart]

Nice flying sir! 👍 Way back when, i had a deflection meter like that, & sold it when i got outta planes. (Stupid! 😫). Now, theres no such thing available. But there are digital versions.

[@BDTennessee]

Thanks for feedback on flying! Good tool to have for sure.Digital ones are cool too.

[@old-rcplane-phart]

@@BDTennessee Im still 'old school' myself! 😁

[@ederdmann7347]

MotionRC has the deflection meter.

[@BDTennessee]

@@ederdmann7347 good deal! Thanks for sharing ED,they been out of stock for awhile...

[@ederdmann7347]

Well they are out of stock again. But now you know where to get one.

[@mrparamedico25]

Hello, great fly and good shots, flying this F15 with inrunner 3672-1900 with 9 blades? does not feel heavy? it is not difficult to take off?

[@BDTennessee]

When you fly heavier 90mm you get the feel of them/learn what they can and cant do. Yes 3672-1900kv. Takes off no problem...

[@charlesrestivo870]

I know this is old you showed the front steering mix but you did not say what was controlling the trim I assumung a rotator slide switch

[@BDTennessee]

Subtrim... Taxi down the run way,adjust value with scroll wheel until tracks straight.

[@billpennymcnally226]

Hi BD Any chance of doing a video on the eflite night radian setup

[@BDTennessee]

If i get access to one ...

[@billpennymcnally226]

@@BDTennessee That would be great

[@stevemartin9498]

What receiver did you select using the spektrum radio?

[@BDTennessee]

Lemon RX 10 channel with Satellite Receiver. Links in description for product info.

[@dbirds21]

Not a jet with much thrust or power. Cool looking but not enough performance for me to buy it.

[@BDTennessee]

Agree it doesnt stack up with todays "new performance".However with new motor setup its fun bird and got enough power.

[@dbirds21]

@@BDTennessee Have you flown the f22 raptor and if so how do you like. I like that and the 90mm f18

[@BDTennessee]

I have both F22 and F18 as well. F22 is big docile,easy and capable jet! No helps being lightweight for its size. F18 is different jet all together.

[@dbirds21]

@@BDTennessee so which one for you for balls out flying. Keep in mind I'm a su35 lover.

[@BDTennessee]

@@dbirds21 between those 3...F18 However you not going to get the speed of a high powered 80 or twin 70 from those 3. F18 does rip tho!
