Both pilots flew great in challenging wind shooting from the hip the entire flight. I did my best to keep up and had to edit out some of the fuzzes that come with being wide angle enough to capture both in the frame.

This is how Motion RC describes the 90mm Freewing F-4 Phantom II EDF Jet:

"Aviation enthusiasts have long loved the F-4 Phantom, and Freewing and Motion RC are extremely proud to introduce our 90mm Super Scale Series rendition of this ultimate warfighter! For more than 50 years, the F-4 Phantom delivered the versatile capabilities required of an all-weather frontline supersonic interceptor, fighter-bomber, SEAD, and reconnaissance platform. Less than a year after its retirement from US military service, you can still keep the F-4 Phantom flying in your RC fleet!

RC pilots have consistently requested a large F-4 EDF jet that performs excellently out of the box without endless modifications. We developed this F-4 to deliver reliability, durability, and performance from your very first flight. Grass operation is a hallmark of the Freewing 90mm F-4. With its wide stance, tall main tires, Oleo suspension nose strut and concealed trailing link suspension main struts, this aircraft performs well on rougher grass fields.

Super scale details include accurate dual landing lights flush-mounted into the scale operating nose wheel doors, DayBright position lights, rivet detail, static arrestor hook, and period accurate ordnance comprising four AIM-9D Sidewinders and two 370 gallon fuel tanks on removable hardpoints. Plastic details include pitot tubes, ejection seat pull rings, and molded exhaust nozzles. The large fiberglass nose cone is magnetic and removable, and the chin pod beneath it is foam, allowing easy removable and customization for other versions (-C or late -D).

The Freewing 90mm F-4 Phantom II is available in two power system versions. The Standard version requires a 6S 5000-6000 mAh LiPo battery, and is our top recommendation to pilots seeking the best balance between speed, thrust, and cost. The High Performance version requires an 8S 5000 mAh LiPo battery, and delivers increased vertical climbing performance and acceleration. The High Performance version is recommended for Advanced pilots only due to the aircraft’s higher speed envelope and heavier flying characteristics."

This is how Motion RC describes the 80mm Freewing MiG-21 Fishbed EDF Jet:

"Dominate the skies with Freewing’s 1/9 scale MiG-21! First designed in 1953, the MiG-21 is widely renowned as a classic Cold War era brute and holds the distinction of being the most produced supersonic jet fighter in the world. More than 11,000 MiG-21s of different variations have flown for over 60 countries over a period of more than 60 years. In fact, the unmistakable outline of the MiG-21 can still be seen today in the skies of over 15 countries that still operate this historic warplane.

The Freewing MiG-21’s impressive 1730mm length puts the aircraft into a category of its own. Longer than most 90mm class Freewing jets but with the lower wing loading of the smaller 80mm class Freewing jets, the Freewing MiG-21 is the perfect balance between size, weight, performance, and cost. Its removable wings, horizontal stabilizer, and vertical stabilizer make transport very easy. Even the nose cone and pitot tube are removable! Freewing has recreated many scale details of the MiG-21 “MF” variant, and the PNP version of the aircraft is powered by an 80mm 12-blade EDF and an all-new 3530-1800KV out-runner motor and 100A ESC. This power system’s thrust can sustain a 40 degree slow high alpha maneuver that is impossible with other jets in the 80mm and 90mm classes. Magnetic fuel tanks and the iconic “blisters” throughout the fuselage help complete the look and feel of the menacing MiG-21."

Look for videos soon for the Freewing A-4 Skyhawk 80mm EDF Jet, Freewing L-39 Albatros 80mm EDF Jet, and more from my Freewing BAe Hawk T1 “Red Arrow” 70mm EDF Jet. The E-flite Havoc Xe 80mm EDF Jet is also on my radar, though I likely won't get it right away, if I do.
