Quite aggressive 'harcore flights' performed with my Freewing Eurofighter. I'm bringing the airframe to the limits of its capabilities. I had a scary moment with a low-altittude stall due to a sudden lateral gust of wind but thankfully I managed to save the day using the thrust vectoring nozzles of the jet.

The BLEND435 Revolectrix batteries testing goes on! 
The plane is powered by 8S 3300mAh Li-Pos. Those are 2x 4S batts connected in series. The flights shown on the video were the fourth cycle of each of the packs. These were quite stressing/demanding flights for the batts.

These were the Eurofighter's 159th to 161th flights.

The Freewing Eurofighter is one of the most unique foam EDF jets available in the market, featuring all-moving canards and 360º thrust vectoring nozzles, which make this plane an actual aerobatic beast and allowing for advanced post-stall maneuvers like high alpha, hovering, flip turns, cobra and flat spins to mention just a few. The jet is now sold in an upgraded V2 version but this one is still an older V1 airframe.

Bright LED navigation lights and HUD teaser enhance the realism, especially at flights on cloudy days or at dawn/dusk.

It also features an electronic retractable landing gear with all metal shock-absorbing struts and metal trunnions.
