freewing F-22 90mm TrueFire and BlueFire LED Afterburner

Introduction

• Thank you for purchasing our Freewing 90mm EDF Super Scale Jet, the F-22 Raptor! The F-22 is the world’s first and feaures cutting edge advances such as stealth capabilities, enhanced agility and computer controlled maneuverability, and precision weapon combat capabilities. The F-22 represents the future of modern air combat, and its technology continues to set the standard against which all other Fifth Generation fighters are judged.
• The Freewing F-22 is a flying foam RC replica of this innovative fighter jet. The Freewing F-22 is 1500mm in length, with a wingspan of 1060mm. Assembled from an array of materials including EPO foam, aluminum, carbon fiber, and other parts, the Freewing F-22 is capable of extreme maneuvers and extended durability on grass runways. The model aircraft features highly detailed surface detailing and paintwork and decals, to accentuate the muted but complex surface seen on the full-size F-22. Assembly is completed primarily with screws to attach the flying surfaces. The main wings disconnect conveniently with a flexible ribbon wire cable, which smartly reduces the load exerted on the actual electronic connections.
• The Freewing F-22 is available in two PNP versions. The Standard version features a 90mm EDF with an all-new 9 blade single piece impeller, factory balanced for precise operation, paired with a 3748-1750KV outrunner brushless motor and 130A ESC. The Deluxe version features a 90mm 12 blade impeller, also molded as a single unit and factory balanced, mounted to a powerful 4075-1390KV outrunner brush less motor and 150A ESC. The F-22’s maximum level airspeed has been measured at 170KPH / 106MPH and 190KPH / 119MPH between the Standard and Deluxe versions, respectively.
• The Freewing F-22 has been optimized for operation on paved runways and also short grass runways. Even without flaps, the model can takeoff in less than 30 meters. A widened gear stance and larger grass-appropriate wheels greatly improve ground handling. In the flight pattern, the F-22 truly shines. It is highly maneuverable and difficult to stall, and can be flown at high angles of attack including high-alpha passes, inverted lmmelmans, etc. In the landing pattern, flaps are not required to slow the model to a long and level descent. If flaps are desired, we recommend mixing slight down elevator to avoid a nose-high approach.
• Overall the Freewing 90mm F-22 is a very approachable flyer and suitable for pilots moving up from 80mm to their first 90mmjet.

Note

1. This is not a toy! Operater should have a certain experience, beginners should operate under the guidance of professional players.
2. Before install, please read through the instructions carefully and operate strictly under instructions.
3. Cause of wrong operation,Freewing and its vendors will not be held responsible for any losses.
4. Model planes’ players must be on the age of 14 years old.
5. This plane used the EPO material with surface spray paint, don’t use chemical to clean, otherwise it will damage.
6. You should be careful to avoid flying in areas such as public places.high-voltage-intensive areas, near the highway,near the airport or any other place where laws and regulation clearly prohibit.
7. You cannot fly in bad weather conditions such as thunderstorms.snows ….
8. Model plane’s battery, don’t allowed to put in everywhere. Storage must ensure that there is no inflammable and explosive materials in the round of 2M range.
9. Damaged or scrap battery should be properly recycled, it can’t discard to avoid spontaneous combustion and fire.
10. ln flying field, the waste after flying should be properly handled,it can’t be abandoned or burned.
11. In any case, you must ensure that the throttle is in the low position and transmitter switch on, then it can connect the Ii po-battery in aircraft.
12. Do not try to take planes by hand when flying or slow landing process. You must wait for landing stop, then carry it.

Warning: This is not a toy! Not for children under 14 years.Young people under the age of 14 should only be permitted to operate this model under the instruction and supervision of an adult. Please keep these instructions for further reference after completing model assembly.

Control Setup Instructions

Battery Size

Center of Gravity

Correct Center of Gravity Is crltlcal for enabllng safe aircraft stablllty and responsive control. Please refer to thefollowlng CG diagram to adjust your aircraft’s Center of Gravity.

• Depending on the capacity and weight of your choosen flight batteries, move the battery forward or backward to adjust the Center of Gravity.
• If you cannot obtain the recommended CG by moving the battery to a suitable location, you can also install a counterweight to achieve correct CG.
• However, with the recommended battery size, a counterweight is not required. We recommend flying without unnecessary counterweight.

Control Setup Instructions

Control Direction Test
After installed the plane, before flying, we need a fully charged battery and connect to the ESC, then use radio to test and check that every control surface work properly.

Flaps

Dual Rates
According to our testing experience, use the following parameters to set Aileron/Elevator Rate. Program your preferred Exponential % in your radio transmitter. We recommend using High Rate for the first flight, and switching to Low Rate if you desire a lower sensitivity. On successive flights, adjust the Rates and Expo to suit your preference.

Important Fllght Notes
A Flap-to-Elevator Mix is required to maintain level flight when the flaps are deployed. The detail is as below:

• With high rate flaps deployed, mix 2mm of DOWN elevator.
• With low rate flaps deployed, mix 1 mm of DOWN elevator.
• Please confirm your horizontal tail position is correct as the right photo show.
