free wing F-35 Lightning II Joint Strike Fighter Jet

 Product Information

The Freewing 70 mm EDF Super Scale Jet, the F-35 Lightning II, is a 1/13 scale model that uses EPO material. It
is 1210mm in length with a wingspan of 820mm and has an empty weight of 1700G(without battery). The aircraft
features scale details with lots of engraved lines on the surface, new paint and decal processes, and lots of scale
plastic accessories. All control surfaces are easily removable, and the aircraft is adequately reinforced with carbon
tubes to effectively improve structural strength and ensure flight quality. The PNP Version features a 70mm 12-
blade EDF impeller, 2957-2210KV out runner motor, and 80A ESC. The PNP version uses one 6S 4000mAh 35C
battery, achieving a top speed of 165KPH / 103MPH. The shortest takeoff distance is about 22M. The air posture
is stable, easy to control, and the action is gentle. The excellent flight stability of the F-35 is very consistent with
modern Freewing jets. When landing, the F-35’s directional stability is good.

Product Usage Instructions

1. This is not a toy! Operators should have a certain experience, and beginners should operate under the
guidance of professional players.
2. Before installation, please read through the instructions carefully and operate strictly under instructions.
3. Due to wrong operation, Freewing and its vendors will not be held responsible for any losses.
4. Model planes’ players must be at least 14 years old.
5. This plane uses the EPO material with surface spray paint. Do not use chemicals to clean, otherwise, it may
cause damage.
6. You should be careful to avoid flying in areas such as public places, high-voltage-intensive areas, near the
highway, near the airport, or any other place where laws and regulation clearly prohibit.
7. You cannot fly in bad weather conditions such as thunderstorms, snows, etc.
8. Model plane’s battery should not be put everywhere. Storage must ensure that there are no inflammable and
explosive materials within a round of 2M range.
9. Damaged or scrap battery should be properly recycled. It cannot be discarded to avoid spontaneous
combustion and fire.
10. In the flying field, the waste after flying should be properly handled. It cannot be abandoned or burned.
11. In any case, you must ensure that the throttle is in the low position and transmitter switch on, then it can
connect the lipo-battery in the aircraft.
12. Do not try to take planes by hand when flying or slow landing process. You must wait for landing to stop, then
carry it.

8. Center of Gravity
Correct Center of Gravity (”CG”) is critical for enabling safe aircraft stability and responsive control. Please
refer to the following CG diagram to adjust your aircraft’s Center of Gravity.
Depending on the capacity and weight of your chosen flight batteries, move the battery forward or
backward to adjust the Center of Gravity.
If you cannot obtain the recommended CG by moving the battery to a suitable location, you can also
install a counterweight to achieve correct CG. However, with the recommended battery size, a
counterweight is not required. We recommend flying without unnecessary counterweight.

9. Control Direction Test

After installed the plane, before flying, we need a fully charged battery and connect to the ESC, then use radio
to test and check that every control surface work properly.

10. Dual Rates and Flight Attention
According to our testing experience, use the following parameters to set Aileron/Elevator Rate. Program your
preferred Exponential % in your radio transmitter. We recommend using High Rate for the first flight, and
switching to Low Rate if you desire a lower sensitivity. On successive flights, adjust the Rates and Expo to suit
your preference.

Introduction

Thank you for purchasing our Freewing 70 mm EDF Super Scale Jet, the F-35 Lightning II! It is 1210mm in length
with a wingspan of 820mm. This 1/13 scale F35 uses EPO material. This F-35 innovates on previous versions by
adding scale details with lots of engraved lines on the surface new paint and decal processes, and lots of scale
plastic accessories. All control surfaces are easily removable, and the aircraft is adequately reinforced with carbon
tubes to effectively improve structural strength and ensure flight quality. The Freewing F-35 PNP Version features
a 70mm 12-blade EDF impeller, 2957-2210KV out runner motor, and 80A ESC. The PNP version uses one 6S
4000mAh 35C battery, achieving a top speed of 165KPH / 103MPH. The shortest takeoff distance is about 22M.
The air posture is stable, easy to control, and the action is gentle. The excellent flight stability of the F-35 is very
consistent with modern Freewing jets. When landing, the F-35’s directional stability is good. In addition, due to the
aerodynamic design, according to our test results, at low speed, the model aircraft is prohibited from turning at a
large elevation angle, which may cause a stall spin.
