Your friend is gifted, actually you both are... Having the patience and skill to make these models shine the way that they should is a pleasure to watch. The 104 a couple of days ago and this today, thank you.
The flying matched the scale detail of the build perfectly. Super nice scale loops, the solo fortess pass with the gear down, the "opposing aileron rolls" pass and even did a nice scale minimum radius turn. Fantastic.
He added a secondary spring in there for when they’re compressed and put some Robart tires on there. Those gear are pretty robust, but it took quite a bit of modification to get them in there.
@@Thercgeek how did he get the foam to look so shiny and metallic looking ? Also with the spektrum receiver, does it enable safe on this plane and does the spektrum receiver have a gyro in it?
I had a copy of the Freewing Refinish process of the Freewing F-18 but accidently deleted the Utube email I got showing the mod process. Can you send it to me again if you have it?
You should be able to get it through your watch library on TH-cam. Anyhow, I think this is what you’re looking for. th-cam.com/video/cY5aN4gCDYQ/w-d-xo.html

Thanks for watching! 😊

Another fine job by Brent on this beautiful jet! Great job in making this video,thanks Chris!
Great looking plane. That dark paint scheme makes it super easy to see. The headlight and the gear, wow.
One of the cool features of the new Eflite jets is ball bearing wheels.. except they don’t want to stop!
Gorgeous! I sure wish it came out of the box like that.
Agreed!
Looks absolutely amazing
That’s an awesome looking bird.
Nice landing...
That was an awesome flight👍🏅🏆
,ciao ,finalmente è arrivato l'f18 puoi dirmi se le escursione e' il baricentro sono esatti come c'è scritto nel manuale?grazie
Eflite F18 landing gear but with beefed up wheels.. is that what he did?? Looks so cool.

Can I get a set of those wheel covers from for a small cost?
nice flite perfect landing just need brakes
What size wheels do you have on your plane? The gear and struts?
This was modified to receive the eflite f18 main struts and retracts. The nose gear is the stock freewing still.
Mine flies exactly like that.. ;-)
hi, the F18 has finally arrived, can you tell me if the excursions and the center of gravity are exact as written in the manual? Thank you
Honestly I’m not sure. This was a model my friend had kit bashed up and I don’t know where he ended up on the cg with it.
The FMS LG is the best.
They look so good!
If that's a Freewing jet where did you get the gear from or if it's been modified to fit another gear how did you do it?
My friend modified it for the eflite landing gear. Was a pretty extensive mod, but really looks awesome!
Does the guy have a video of how he did the landing gear mod??
He did. His channel is called Hecht Speed. The mod was a ton of work.
I would like to do the same mod on my F-18. You think your friend would be willing to share pic's of the process her did?
Take a look at Brent’s channel, he showed a bit of that there th-cam.com/channels/_wVnZ5wwzCKE_YLbF0gTCw.html

Bel volo, vorrei comprare l' 18, potreste dirmi i pregi e i difetti di questo modello😊
Freaking sweet man.
Have a video of this aircraft being painted?
Yeah, check out his channel. I tagged it in the video description. @Hecht Speed
Geek 👍
One scale detail left out…… it’s flying single ship!
Just needs that opposing solo :)
The mid field knife edge cross would be an awesome maneuver to pull off.
