Freewing T-33 Shooting Star 80mm EDF Jet Maiden Flight

Guys we have been looking forward to flying this jet since it was announced. The Freewing T-33 Shooting Star has been a jet we have wanted for years (well since Boozer and Papa started flying again), and we just couldn't wait to get our hand on it. This jet would be a great first jet for those of you moving form tricycle gear war birds into the EDF world. It has working retraces, flaps, and fly phenomenal. Check out the link below to get one for yourself.
We hope you enjoy this video.

Victor Shamulus thanks victor

[@shelbyseelbach9568]

Answers the question of what would happen if we took a mustang wing and put a single jet engine on it.

[@MerryBoozerRC]

Well as long as it has more thrust than weight and you get the thrust line correct and cg proper it will fly

Lol thanks Bill

[@johnsons74thsquadron74]

What kind of receiver did you put in this plane and where did you place it?

[@MerryBoozerRC]

I really like the AR637T it my go to lately in all my planes.

[@skyblazerrc7228]

Great flying of that plane!

Very nice video thanks

[@payitfwdrcl6171]

Wesley , Lori, Papa Boozers....Great job....That T33 flies smooth. Sorry to hear about that terrible Florida weather your’e having down there....🙃🤣. I think most here would love to have a winter like yours any day. LOL. Enjoyed the video. Thanks for sharing. 👊👍😉

[@loriage]

Lol ya the weather here is terrible lol

[@olsonaviation9382]

yup my main gear came out just as the nose gear came out. But my nose strut didn't always want to come out, and every time I played with the gear doors the nose wheel would come out... so will have to look at that more

[@slugosrc1256]

Great Video! Can't wait for spring!

[@MerryBoozerRC]

It just gets hot then 😂

[@gavstreet8976]

Great vids as always love em keep it up

I wish I had weather like that to film. But I'll be down in Florida in March

It’s beautiful here 🤘

[@keithshillbillyrcn849]

Well done gentleman and excellent camera work as always. Wes made the plane fly on rails,well done thanks for the video keep flying you guys. Just having fun RC'n with friends and family

[@MerryBoozerRC]

Thanks again it’s you guys comments keep me going 🤘

[@mickmuzzmkmz1628]

Wow, we used to view foamies as expendable, cheap crap. Now it seems to be the main material for BNF & RTF RC planes. And why not, when the overall product turns out as good as this? This T-33 is a very desirable little peach! In fact every foamy reviewed here (prop or jet) is desirable, I want them all! But of course I can't. At least, thanks to channels like this, I can enjoy the latest offerings for free! These newer EDFs even have an (almost) real jet sound to them too, unlike the earlier ones, which sounded like a dog whistle, blown by an astmatic, with an electric motor sound thrown in! Or someone attempting to whistle with a lisp!! Also, good on you for using raw skill to fly, instead of cheating with gyro stabilisation. Gyro stabilisation is like cars with driver aids such as traction control, stability control, & advanced braking systems. All of which are totally unnecessary if you can actually drive properly. Not only that, but it will instill bad habits into the layperson. Gyros are only really needed in planes with a sub 500mm wingspan, as well as helis & multis. With that said however, some small helis seem to have too much tail hold in the integrated, non-adjustable PCB gyro, making the amount of rudder input needed, out of proportion with roll & pitch inputs. This makes smooth flight almost impossible, especially with the cheap shit "Txs" that they come with, which have stick "gimbals" straight from a gaming controller! Anyway, enough bitchin' & back to the topic! Sweet plane, great flying, with an equally great landing Wes! Jolly good show all round. 😉👍👏

[@IJustGotHere]

Great team work presenting this airplane! Here lately it seems to be windy like this every time I go to fly. I'm 7 days away from completing the 365 day challenge here in Ohio. 😀👍✈

[@MerryBoozerRC]

That’s awesome

[@mrt1035]

I was mad at Freewing for not making this plane when they came out with the L-39, but dog gone it, I can’t help but like the L-39 better as in terms of flying. This plane can float though, I feel like this one is faster than the L-39. I have a 636 with AS3X in it and it’s locked in.

[@Icarusthe2nd]

Nice maiden flight, really good vid! The flight time was actually 4:47 minutes instead of the 3:47 you mentioned at the end, and still 3.86V in the cells that's a really effficient inrunner. And 'hey film me!!!' that was a nice Petrinic Brothers joke :-) Can't wait to fly mine. Greetings from Belgium!

[@MerryBoozerRC]

Yep I do my timer on useable flight time. If I’m under 10% throttle the timer turns off. Good catch 😉. Hopefully you enjoy our videos we have some great stuff coming over the next two weeks.

[@melvinriverarcjet6544]

Hello westley.is she fly's as avanti?thanks😎

[@raulroman5732]

Great slow passes! Good job camera man !!

[@MerryBoozerRC]

That’s why I married her 🤫

[@ArthurRC]

Awesome flight video as always Wes’ 💪🏻🍾 I’m wondering what is your CG in order to make aerobraking landings, not 95mm as book says I guess it’s toooooo nose heavy isn’t it ?

[@MerryBoozerRC]

I balanced it on the molded cg mark under the wing feels perfect on that mark

[@ArthurRC]

Merry Boozer RC oh really ? That’s not what other pilot told me! But will try first at molded marks though 😉 you didn’t felt her too nose heavy so?

[@Adam-hq8di]

Hey Wes, awesome review and video dude! Always love all the videos that the Boozers share! Quick question, I’m looking to get into EDFs and just wandering from your experience / opinion, which is a better first EDF, the T33 or L39 from Motion RC? Thanks man!

[@MerryBoozerRC]

I really do think the T-33 is the better flyer and if I’m honest I like the way it looks better

[@courtenaysmock2771]

Is there a way for the main gear doors to retract back up when the gear is down?

[@johnsons74thsquadron74]

There is a way, but it would be a hassle. You will need two servos and a gear door sequencer, plus linkages and rods and y harnesses, which would take long time to execute installing. Be mindful too that not all sequencers close your gear doors after the gear is down, and the weight of the servos could affect flying and your CG.

[@dragonsknights]

Even if not related to this video, wish to know at your airfield (of each one reading this) how is ruled a collision between planes (not engaged in a combat or a formation flight in which the risk of collision is possible) or plane/heli . When i was beginner and flying the Apprentice I was downed by a P51 coming from my six and i discovered that in such situation each one had to take his damages without any money refunds. Please let me know what rules are applied at your local club so that some rules could be applied at my airfield too. All replies are welcomed, Thank you!!

[@MerryBoozerRC]

Yep part of the hobby accidents happen and when they do you shake hand and don’t fight about it. No money is ever expected to be paid to someone over a crash at any club I’ve ever been to. You fly at your own risk.

[@dragonsknights]

@@MerryBoozerRC thank you for your reply. At my airfield they told me the same, even if the other pilot offered 50% of the damage he did. I was no allowed to fly during the exam to get the licence with the repaired wing and had to buy a new one. I was so afraid to fall down during my first flights but never expected to be downed :))

[@joehabeeb3462]

Great video...I'm really on the fence 1.5 p-51 or the T-33 ...

[@MerryBoozerRC]

That is a hard one...... I haven’t flown the P-51 yet so can’t help........... Yet

Both!

@@MerryBoozerRCThe Old Man says Lori you film anything you want to. Wes has got to remember you are the one making him look good. ✈😎💖

[@octane2099]

How does this plane fly compared to the F-86 80mm saber

[@MerryBoozerRC]

Similar but slow speed is much easier it reminds me of a really fast P-47 and I love it

[@olsonaviation9382]

I don't think our t-33s landing gear took that long to go up. our mains go up right after the nose wheels starts to go up. I will go check really quick

[@MerryBoozerRC]

It was strange maybe it’s just mine ?

[@jeffhenderson3318]

Very nice Wes. I never noticed the Maya pyramid in the background. Is that new?

[@MerryBoozerRC]

Haha our flying field is on a dump the pyramids come and go

[@boss2234]

I love you graphics, I need a contact for you I would love to get you to do a pinup graphic for my bomber,s and planes, good job guys

[@williewideback]

would you say the T-33 fly's similar to the Albatros L- 39?

[@MerryBoozerRC]

Yes except the T-33 flys slower better.

Yeah something is wrong with your gear mine go together
