Nose gear features a bright landing light that automatically turns on when the landing gear is deployed.

Articulating pivot point used on the main landing gear allows gear to fold flat in the retract bays.

PNP versions offer pilots a choice of either a 6S or 8S power system ARF Plus version allows pilots to source their own power systems.

Radio system: Spektrum DX9 transmitter Spektrum AR9020 receiver Power system: Freewing 3748-1750 Kv brushless outrunner motor Freewing nine-blade 90 mm fan Freewing brushless 130-amp ESC with separate 8-amp BEC EC5 connectorīattery: Admiral Carbon 70C 6S 5,100 mAh LiPo All versions of the F-22 kit include electric retract-powered, suspension-equipped tricycle aluminum landing gear, flaps, full-flying horizontal stabilizers, a bright nose gear-mounted landing light that is synchronized to the deployment of the landing gear, and a full collection of preinstalled servos. This last version omits the Freewing power system entirely. Pilots who are looking to squeeze every ounce of performance out of this airframe by using third party (read as typically much more expensive) 90 mm ducted fans will want to go with the ARF Plus version.

Both motors mate to Freewing’s lush-sounding, nine-blade 90 mm EDF unit or the 12-blade EDF unit with the 8S power system.

The standard version includes a six-cell-based power system (brushless outrunner motor), while the deluxe version offers a higher-performance, eight-cell power system (brushless inrunner motor). Manufactured out of EPO foam, this Raptor is available in two Plug-N-Play (PNP) configurations. Motion RC’s release of the Freewing 90mm EDF-powered F-22 Raptor now offers EDF jet enthusiasts a jumbo-size, full-featured alternative. The Pratt & Whitney afterburner-equipped, turbo-fan engines produce a maximum thrust of 35,000 pounds each, giving this jet a 1.25 to 1.00 thrust-to-weight ratio in full afterburner.Įlectric ducted-fan enthusiasts who are eager to fly this 21st century jet have long had to settle for smaller models powered by 64 to 70 mm power systems. Standout features of this modern airframe include a clipped delta wing with a reverse-swept trailing edge, thrust-vectoring nozzles, and full-flying horizontal stabilizers. Its notable capabilities include the ability to supercruise (sustain supersonic flight without afterburners) and an impressively tall service ceiling of more than 65,000 feet.

A total of 195 aircraft were manufactured throughout the life of the program, with the final Raptor delivered to the U.S. THE LOCKHEED MARTIN F-22 Raptor, a single-seat, air-superiority stealth fighter, made its first flight in 1997. Although the military-gray airframe might cause some pilots to feel angst lest they experience loss of orientation, the Raptor’s twin, canted vertical stabilizers and unique cross section create excellent in-flight orientation cues.
