- Here are a few great flights flown with my Freewing 8S 90mm EDF F-22 Raptor R/C Jet flown both at my local field 'Club Aeromodelisme Els Cards' and at a friend's field 'Club Aeromodelisme Ciutat de Reus', the last flight being flown on a very windy day!! :DDD
Shameless plug: if you want to contribute to my work, please consider having a look at some of my merch! ;)

These were flights 135th, 136th and 145th on 'Scarlett'.

Mind that although most of the jet is stock, I performed several modifications. Removed the infamous Blue Box and wing ribbon wires, passed individual leads to wing servos, mixed them all separately, removed pilot figure and nose gear light, installed a HE A3S3 gyro (which required physical servo reversing one stabilator servo, inverting motor and pot wires), added a green LED to make a fake HUD reflection effect, airbrushed the canopy to make it look more golden, like the full-scale one. Need to pick the sun at the right angle to show up though!
More details on my setup coming (soon?)!

Seriously one of my favorite RC related channels. No Ego. No cringe voice over. Just good flying. Raw content. Showing what the plane can do. Well done!
Thank you very much, it means a lot to me :')
Nice flight with the raptor , love that jet 🔥💯💯
Thanks! It's certainly one of the most capable birds out there atm! :D
Man, you sure know how to wring that baby out!! Superior flying!
Thank you very much!! :D
Truth be told, I feel really comfortable flying this one! 😀🥰
Made that dance in the air. Lovely footage 👍🏾 running stock EL servos?
Thanks!!
I ran those for a while, so yep, in this video the jet was still using the stock servos, but I recently replaced them by Promodeler DS150s. ;)
Dang that is some good flying. Next Level!
Thanks Brad! 🥰
This jet makes it easier! (most of it anyway, haha!) 😄
Have u ever tried LiHV packs with the F22?
I fly LiHV but not on my 8S birds yet... so mostly the Su-35, F-16 and MiG are on HV.
do you have thrust vectoring on this plane ?
Nope, not at all! My only vectored jets are the several Su-35s, the MiG-29, the Gripen and the old Eurofighter. Everything else doesn't feature VT.
