Taking the Freewing 90mm F-4 Phantom II (6S) out of the box is a mix of pure "Rhino" scale excitement and that inevitable "RC pilot's sigh" when you spot those minor shipping dings in the foam. But once you get past the initial frustration of a slightly scuffed wingtip or a compressed nose, the build quality of this 6S bird really shines. The assembly is satisfyingly straightforward—everything from the magnetic scale ordnance to the heavy-duty trailing link landing gear feels purposeful and rugged. The real payoff, though, is the first time you throttle up that 1960kV inrunner. Even on a standard 6S pack, the power-to-weight ratio is impressive, pushing this massive airframe through the air with a locked-in stability that makes those minor cosmetic shipping flaws completely vanish from your mind. It’s a "grass field king" that handles rougher strips with ease, and despite its "Flying Brick" reputation, it flies with a predictable, high-performance grace that makes every high-speed pass feel like a victory. For the price and the presence it commands on the flight line, it's easily one of the most rewarding 90mm EDF experiences you can have, battle scars and all.

The Freewing F4 has the ultimate presence at the flying field. All the glory of a classic military jet with excellent flying and handling characteristics. Once dialed in, this is a dream to fly.

Good quality kit. Was easy to assemble. Stable and easy to fly (only my 2nd EDF jet). Slows down nicely for landing. Looks great in the air!

This is actually my 6th F4 Phantom. I just absoutly love this bird. The 8s is a grate way to go and the added weight does not seem to detract from the flying ability of the heavier bird. It still will slow way down for those comfortable landings without even a hind of a stall. With all 6 not once have I had a bad landing and takeoffs are just as good if not better. I must say that I do use a Hobby Eagle 3L gyron in all of them. Just makes it easier to fly on those windy days. Also I might add since there have been soo many of these in the real world of F-4 's there is a whole host of choices in liveries. That is also a good reason for having 6 aircraft. My thought is you can't ask for a better flying jet in a military form.
