Easy to Assemble, Maiden flight was perfect, didn't need any trim for level flight. I added a led to the bottom to help with orientation while flying. Landing was smooth with full flaps, half flaps for take off. 40% expo 0n high rates, 35% on low. This is my first jet, its a great trainer and would recommend it for a first jet.

Easy assembly. Flew great out of the box both with and without Flex gyro on. Very little trim required. Handles great and is agile. Looks great in the sky. I recommend it.

Our field has a course blade grass and is mowed 20 to 25 times per year. So our jets must have the power and wheel-size to blast-off from an unmanicured runway. This jet handles it. The trailing link gear are an extra bonus as is the redunkulous low landing speed. Another great feature is the long pointy nose. I can throttle way way back and she just keeps going. Where other planes yield a 3 minutes flight this plane will get you 4.

This is my 3rd Freewing jet. Easiest build to date, absolutely gorgeous jet and flies like it’s on rails. Only complaint would be that the blue on the wing tanks blends in a bit on a blue sky but nothing a little red paint won’t fix. I would highly recommend this plane to anyone wanting a beautiful and fast 2nd or 3rd jet.

This is a great flying edf, very solid in the air and predictable. It is very well made and I have had no problems with it, after 125 flights. I bought mine after watching other guys in our club fly theirs, they all had high praise for it. Now we fly together and have a lot of fun with our L-39's , especially when trying some formation flying. I have thought about buying another one for a back-up in case I tear this one up. It goes to the field every trip. Great flying plane. Also coyote approved (see photo)
