F-4D Phantom II 90mm EDF Jet from Freewing - ARF PLUS - FJ31211AP
Version Info: This is the ARF+ version for pilots who wish to install their own power system. All primary electronics including servos and landing gear retracts come pre-installed, just add your own power system (EDF, motor, and ESC) to begin flying.

The specter has been revealed! Aviation enthusiasts have long loved the F-4 Phantom, and Freewing and Motion RC are extremely proud to introduce our 90mm Super Scale Series rendition of this ultimate warfighter! For more than 50 years, the F-4 Phantom delivered the versatile capabilities required of an all-weather frontline supersonic interceptor, fighter-bomber, SEAD, and reconnaissance platform. Less than a year after its retirement from US military service, you can still keep the F-4 Phantom flying in your RC fleet!
RC pilots have consistently requested a large F-4 EDF jet that performs excellently out of the box without endless modifications. We developed this F-4 to deliver reliability, durability, and performance from your very first flight. Grass operation is a hallmark of the Freewing 90mm F-4. With its wide stance, tall main tires, Oleo suspension nose strut and concealed trailing link suspension main struts, this aircraft performs well on rougher grass fields.
Super scale details include accurate dual landing lights flush-mounted into the scale operating nose wheel doors, DayBright position lights, rivet detail, static arrestor hook, and period accurate ordnance comprising four AIM-9D Sidewinders and two 370 gallon fuel tanks on removable hardpoints. Plastic details include pitot tubes, ejection seat pull rings, and molded exhaust nozzles. The large fiberglass nose cone is magnetic and removable, and the chin pod beneath it is foam, allowing easy removable and customization for other versions (-C or late -D).
Representing the famed aircraft BuNos 66-463 operated by pilot Richard “Steve” Ritchie and weapons systems officer Charles “Chuck” DeBellevue when they scored their fifth kill together on May 10, 1972 over Vietnam, the Freewing 90mm F-4 arrives pre-painted in classic SEA (South East Asia) Camo and proudly wears the markings of the 555th TFS. For piloting wanting to customize their F-4 with their own scheme, we recommend Callie-Graphics.com.
Such a large RC model aircraft remains easy to transport with magnetic removable fiberglass nose cone and removable wings with a convenient flexible wire harness that attaches at each wing root. Large flaps, brass ball links, reliable control hardware, and digital servos throughout the aircraft provide positive control, and a specially designed elevator mechanism incorporates two ball bearings for smooth rotation at all times.
Own the biggest and best performing foam EDF F-4 Phantom in the world – Rejoice RC pilots, Freewing has delivered another grand slam!

Product Updates:
- Sept 21, 2018 - This update is specific to the new Grey color version of the 90mm F-4D. The grey version of this model includes two decal sets, one Marines "Grey Ghosts" and one Navy "Sundowners." The plane comes painted to accept the decals for the Grey Ghosts variant. If you wish to use the Navy Sundowner livery, it will look best if you paint your vertical stabilizer red before applying the decals to the tail section. Use a foam safe paint such as basic latex paint available at major hardware stores.

I was a Crew Chief on F4 C,D,E and RF 4c’s. I saw this model and was so impressed I bought it as a static display. When the model arrived assembly was very easy and I set it up so all systems are functional using a Specktrum DX6i radio. It is currently being displayed in my hobby room.

It does not save any money doing it this way, better to just purchase the 8s capable planes unless you have this stuff lying around like I did. I had some trepidation about the c.g. because one well known reviewer that I trust said the plane was tail heavy at the book c.g, 190mm. Mine was not. I set mine at first flight at 185mm and it was just slightly nose heavy. so 190mm to me is a great starting point. As I always do with freewing products I used the low rates for my ailerons and the high rates for everything else. this was a great starting point for me. I generally don't use high and low rates, I just leave them on 1 setting. I read some of the threads where people were saying that some of the early models needed a lot of aileron trim on first flight. This was not the case with mine, I set it up ailerons and flaps straight across and I never even touched my aileron trim. Only a few clicks of up elevator setting the elevator 8mm down on the front edge from the parting line on the fuselage, by the book. I did install a gyro because they just fly better with them. I never used them for years but I love them now. I mounted it at the back of the battery compartment behind the breakout box where the wing wire connectors hook up. I put my receiver under the battery tray and my antennas extend forward above the front landing gear. I am using 2 4s 60c heavy duty batteries linked in series and they are all the way back on the battery tray to achieve 190mm c.g. The 2 batteries together weigh 1100 grams. First flight was picture perfect nice rotation and nothing freaky happened. Plane has good speed ( 125mph in level flight) using a gps data logger. I'm very happy with that! Great power and the flying is rock solid with no bad habits. Fly it like a jet and only slow down on final and it is very easy to fly! I bought Colonel Robin Olds plane markings from Callie Graphics and they look amazing! I am super happy with it, don't hesitate!

Have experienced other suppliers IE Byron scale models, Horizon Hobby etc. Motion RC fills a very nice metric between cost and performance.
