I'm glad this came up in my recommended videos, it's been decades since I had anything RC other than a TV lol

Love the fact that y'all gave credit to everyone else for this plane and admitted to only putting your spin on a proven design... This is why I continue to watch/follow Flite test.. gotta get me a couple of those sticker for my Semi truck... guess my son will be building this next.... and as always thank for the free plans

every time the show ends I always smile because you guys are doing so well and you really encourage me in the hobby thanks so much :)

That is amazing! I am so getting one! Along with a lot of poster board and start making some custom designs. I will try to build some other modern aircraft, and share them with you guys. Thank you for the inspiration! Keep it up Flite Test!

I'm probably one of may to say this, But Thank you Josh Bixler, David, Chad and the rest of the flite test crew for bringing a different view in RC flying. Ive been watching your videos for a few months now and they are AWESOME!! . Thank you so much for taking the time to post these how to videos of your scratch built planes, I have printed the tile plans for this model and am looking forward to building and flying the F-22 with my son. A huge thanks to you

Awesome! This episode came JUST in time! Wanted a simple plane that I can build with a shortage of parts.

Great video! Just placed my order can't wait to get it and go fly!!!

This is and was my favorite plane these guys did!

Great video as always! Looking forward to see you guys experimenting with the Mobius camera for FPV.

Oooohhhh I remember when you guys released the older F-22!! This one looks so much better! Gotta build one now! ;D Good job!

Yet another really great and inspiring episode, Amazing!

This plane is a winner. Not from personal experience but I've seen some guys flying at my field. It's on my list to build - soon.

I love your guy's swappable series and everything you do to promote rc flight. PLEASE dont get rid of swappables!

Nice - been missing the vids lately. I'll be building this one for sure.

Can't wait for the plans!!

Great job mate will order a couple to build with the grandsons keep up the good work

I know there are a lot of these types of planes about on the web but for some reason this one reminds me so much of the rcfoamfighters F-22,maybe it's the bow tie opening to stop some of the noise or the enclosed body or the canopy,i don't know what it is but it does.

You guys have WAAAAY too much fun! :)

Great Job! this is what the hobby is all about fun!

Thanks guys, was tired of the swaps, this might make a cool fpv with the micro camera, can do some dodge flying like you did through the woods but fpv..!!

Amazing flying at the bonus end

Awesome as usual!!!!

Also a good tipp for making it quieter is to increase the clearance in front of the prop, from experience thats where most of the nose comes from because the blade is constantly going from high to low speed air and back.

Just ordered 3 of these kits. I hope to get my 8 year old son involved in the build and, with some luck, some buddy box flights.

I love the F22 so much that I watched it twice!

can you guys come to australia like you did with L.A, theres lots of people here who love your show just like it do. keep up the good work

Well done Chad. Josh made a point to acknowledge all the different f-22 versions already out there. I would like to personally acknowledge RCPowers....one of the first guys IMHO to mainstream this foamboard prop and slot f-22....his design is still epic. Matter of fact, it may have already been discussed but it would be awesome if you guys could have a few "special guests"....ex: maybe a trip to NZ to see Bruce one day.

Draculeos Fair enough, now I know and knowing is half the battle. Suspected RCPowers had a chip on his shoulder though. Strange to think just 3 years ago he was KZread king so far as RC related stuff was concerned and now where is he?

I'm trying to get into scratch builds myself!! Nice guys!

This is an excellent design and a good video. Thumbs up, by the way, for the Dusty Crophopper on the wall. One question; what´s that warbird, the silver one with invasion stripes?

These things are SICK!!!!!!!!!

been waiting for this for a while :)

This is great what you'r doing !

Never cared too much for the F-22 style planes as they always seemed to flat. You guys did an excellent job on the redesign.

AWESOME!

WOO More F-22s!!!!

I love the swappable series and hope you guys keep making them. The Raptor is cool but, I still prefer the swappables.

great plane! I'm building one soon!

Looking forward to the Viggen foamboard planes in the background at 00:35 . I never had a plane with canards.

I would love to see one of these built like the FT Viggen. Maybe with dual EDFs.

Great Videos

that´s Awesome!

My most successful method of extracting planes from trees: Large fishing pole, heavy line, tennis ball. poke holes through the tennis ball, and use a stick to push the line through, then tie a fisherman's knot. The propensity of bait, cast from a fishing pole, to snag in a tree makes it the perfect solution to shake the plane down. Also you will get great casting practice!

Love it!

I go to an engineering club and my teacher actually designed the air intakes for the real F-22. He told us all about how secret it was when he did it, and he wasn't even allowed to leave a single paper on his desk. They used special windows and walls because they had heard that the Chinese had something that would allow them to hear through our normal walls. So interesting to hear the story from him.

My friend flew the first combat mission and got the first kill in the f22. If I had 20/20 vision, I would certainly follow in his footsteps and join the Israeli air force :)

its not just the chinese usa has it to and it picks up vibrations on windows and turns them into words thats the laymens terms

looking forward to this one :D

Great plane! You could make your next scratch build an edf

I am literally regretting buying the racer this looks awesome!!!

"oh you done such a great job chad" "no josh you came up with the tunnel for the pushrod" "oh no but chad this is such a great design" "oh josh, but you did...." start making out 0_0

you guys shoot out machine gun loads of compliments^^

Dang the edges of the air are dangerous! Fun times guys!

Is possible build it with a EDF 64mm? the sound is great!

Bixler seems like the nicest guy on the planet. Does he EVER get upset or rattled about anything? He always seems to incredibly happy to be doing whatever he's doing. TBH, I'm a bit envious of that. Great show, as always guys. :)

plans? all i see is the old plan.. when is the pdf plans coming out on this version?

Nice plane, nice video. But still, it's making me sad, I HATE wintertime specially if I think of the coming summer without David, I love you man. Please come back summer 2015

What? No scratchbuild of this one? Great job as always

Great flyer I need one

So I'm still extremely new to building planes and everything, but I just want a couple tip son how it is you guys get the stripes and decals on your planes so nice and even, any techniques or special kind of decals that you use?

Suggestion! Maybe review a zephyr 2 with fpv?

Awesome video and build! But I think the vertical stabilizer should be a little more wide horizontal-ways by like an inch or two. Just my opinion

I have been waiting :)

BTW the Decal looks great on the window of my 2012 Crew Cab Z71! :)

Is there any chance that somebody could post some links to store pages with the necessities that are not included in the speed build kit? Like the servos, battery pack, etc.?

Perfect 👌 I love it

This is probably a dumb question, but is there somewhere you can buy a kit with all the necessary electronics? I would love to build this, and know I need a remote, but I was wondering where to get all the rest, thanks.

FINALLY THE F22!!!

Quick question. What if you swopped the motor from front to back and had the motor behind the thrust like a normal puller plane. Just mounted in thr middle?

Nice!! Now I know what my next build will be, as for my wife! :D

Again! Josh was wearing the flitetest jacket when they were flying! I want one so bad because my zipper broke on my favorite jacket and its the same as the one josh had on, except for the flitetest printed on the fount and on the back. PLEASE SELL THEM! It is still cold and snowy were I live and I need a new one and am waiting for you guys to get them out!!!!!! PLEASE! :)

Welcome back chaps!

could rudder control be added to this plane? would it add any benefit? nice vid guys.

That ending!

Wrist rocket, lead sinker, either kite string, mason line or heavier. If it's high in a tree shoot the kite string to thread and thread heavier cord. I've gotten things out 75 feet up. It is amazing how high up a 1 oz fishing weight on kite string will shoot up. Do NOT be under it when it comes down. Later, you can pop balloons with pinto or navy beans just for fun.

Hey really nice, i always wanted an F-22. The problem i am having is that i have bought the (3 Pack Swappable Speed Build Kit) and mangaed to crash all of them i think the most problem i had was that where i live it is always windy. Do you think this will be a good plan to start with or i should go with something more slow like (FT Old Speedster) or is another one? Thanks a lot.

I would appreciate it if you guys would test fly the HobbyKing Minimoa Glider or at least provide a tutorial on setup

Josh Josh & Chad : Those Planes seem to Fly pretty good ! But you guy's are all good Flyers Also ! Great job everyone & Thanks for the Video !

awesome! :)

Yeah so I'm a big fan of you guys... You guys actually got me going into this hobby. And a few days back, I got an idea that you could maybe build. Its an F-35 Lightning II without the stvol actually. But the main thing is, you can make a jet engine type except for without any flames... the jet will be powered by a electric motor... this gives the plane a realistic sound and may also increase the performance. I didn't do further experiments on this so... inbox me if you like it

Yeah dude, that elecric powered jet you talk about is already a big thing, its called an EDF. They already made an EDF jet called the Viggen.

I have a park 400 with a 2100 venom flight pack I put landing gear on it and it takes around 200ft to take off should I get a bigger prop

as you kept landing in the tree you should mod a tri copter and put a claw on the front... attach it using magnets and some string so when you grab the plane it breaks off and hangs at the centre of gravity...

You should make an F-18 too!!!

When is the power pack for this model coming out?

Another great plane to scratch build is an f4u corsair, you could use the toaster plane wings!

you should make a EDF design, even one with a pod or A-10 style would be ok

check out my post of an edf version

Way cool looking plane. Looking forward to the build video. I like the swapables but after building a couple other non swapable planes, Personally I'd rather build a plane, put the electrics in it and leave them, at least until it gets destroyed! LOL It really isn't that much (on small park models) to have a radio, motor and ESC in each plane. I know receivers that work with my Turnigy 9x are cheap and have had good success with the HK 3 channel Rx that is for the race cars.

How about adding the classic Ugly Stick to the simple series build.

BTW.... Are the downloadable plans available for this plane yet?

How about mounting a few rockets underneath that you can shoot while flying? Would be cool to watch. :)

Hey Flitetest. Great plane! I have a request. If possible, could you guys design a similar jet, except with an edf instead of pusher prop? It'd be awesome if you could. Thanks

I’m inspired to modify the design to incorporate a 50mm EDF on 3s. That would be really cool.

could you guys do a video about best planes that are under $50-$100 because I'm trying to find good but cheap planes i could buy

Saving up now

Great plane! You awesome like alwayse! ))

please do a video on how to mount a go pro to your airplane :)!!

I can't find the new version of these F22 plans on flitetest.com, just the old version that doesn't have the 3D look to it, can anyone provide a link?

If i use the light setup what battery should I use?

is a 'swappable plane' on that can be a glider and a regular or what? any information would help thanks

About how much do you think it could carry kn payload? im looking for a cheap build that i can mount a cam to and a Airsoft payload bay

I gave that tip on my channel of removing one layer of paper to make the foam board more pliable years ago

I just seen this kit on amainhobbies. Is there a way to mount a fpv camera in the nose of this one?

Hey guys... fun video... just one comment re. your comment, Josh B, about using the prop in slots for streamer combat. If you / others do fly streamer combat with electrics (as I love to do) remember to throttle OFF asap if the streamer gets wound in the prop. Failing to do so _can_ cause an overheat situation and permanently damage a motor. Prop in slots do not guarantee protection of the prop and if the streamer catches on another part of the airframe it can seize the motor. Not good. Don't shy away from it.... definitely DO have fun with combat! But remember to take care. Cheers, J

What is the motor angle on this?
