Overview
T-33 Shooting Star German 80mm EDF Jet - PNP from Freewing - FJ21725P
Version Info: As of 7/26/2023 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 2150Kv Inrunner! The 100A ESC provided ample headroom for high power use and the 12 blade EDF provides a proven efficiency that thousands of Freewing jets have had worldwide. 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

Eddy.
gear back in place with epoxy. Good as new. The nose gear plastic servo housing broke and I had to replace it with a spare. I did have to glue the plastic servo foundation back in place and reinstall the nose gear. In my opinion the gear was adequately glued. Since that repair I have flown it 25-30 times without issue and the other main gear which was not damaged is still glued in place.

My only problem was one of the pushrods was missing, which was easily replaced, but otherwise excellent quality and good packaging. first few flights went well. Later I made the mistake of not keeping the throttle upon landing approach and put it in. A replacement fuselage and wing was needed to get back in the air. Appreciate that you sell spare parts. I was not sure about some of the items that needed to be replaced so contacted customer support. Spoke with a fellow with an English ascent that was extremely helpful and answered all my questions very quickly.... I ordered the spare parts needed and they arrived today. I strongly prefer purchasing RC items from a company that has support folks that speak English that I can actually talk with is a big competitive advantage.. Keep up the good work.. Also you might consider stocking the T-33 GERMAN colors as an ARF. Ray Keep up the good work...
