T-33 Shooting Star USAF 80mm EDF Jet - PNP from Freewing - FJ21715P
Version Info: As of 4/28/2023 this model now comes with the upgraded 3658-2150Kv inrunner brushless motor and a newly designed 12-Blade EDF.

Motion RC is excited to announce the new Freewing T-33 Shooting Star in 1/9.5 scale. Honoring the popular T-33 that flew with over 40 countries between 1948 and 2017, the Freewing T-33 faithfully represents this amazing aircraft!
Constructed from EPO foam, carbon, wood, aluminum, and other materials, the Freewing T-33 is powered by an 80mm EDF power system optimized for performance and easy flying behavior. Its wide 1350mm (53") wingspan offers a light wing loading that allows for very stable flight and a mild gentle stall. Scale split flaps and robust aluminum trailing link suspension landing gear makes taking off from and landing on grass runways an easy operation. Removable tip tanks, an accurate overall outline, and landing gear doors enhance the scale fidelity of this model aircraft. With a quick and easy screw together assembly that is convenient for pilots wanting to get in the air quickly.
The Freewing T-33's power system provides performance that is similar to other recent 80mm Freewing jets such as the popular Avanti S and L-39 Albatros but is now powered by a upgraded 3658-2150Kv inrunner brushless motor with new 12-Blade EDF power system! The 100A ESC provided ample headroom for high power use and the new 12 blade EDF provides a perfect balance between thrust, sound, and efficiency. Rapid acceleration, low cruising altitude position, and efficient energy consumption are key features of the Freewing T-33. Although it's wingspan is greater than more expensive 90mm jets, the T-33 is affordable to operate and makes a perfect EDF trainer jet for new jet pilots moving up from smaller 64mm and 70mm jets

First, within the first month on separate occasions, I ripped both main landing out of the wing. These were easily reglued and I have had no problems since. Our field enjoys both hard surface and grass facilities. Two years ago, our club decided to improve the grass area, which is now much more lush and free of ant hills. But, now when freshly mowed, I learned unfortunately yesterday there is much more loose, cut grass, lying, or embedded in the surface. My first two flights were on the hard surface owing to the wind direction. At the time of my third flight the wind had picked up a little and was now in yearly 180° from the first two. This meant I had to takeoff on the grass to allow adequate rollout. I advanced the throttle plane gained speed, then appeared to lose speed just as it lifted off the ground and stalled. Upon examination I found the entire intake on the underwing surface was full of cut grass starving the EDF of the extra air needed. So at full throttle, it was losing speed. JUST A CAUTION TO OTHERS FLYING OFF GRASS FIELDS!
