Profile F-22 low altitude flight

Here's a video of my profile depron F-22 with simple thrust vectoring. The video shows slow speed handling and acrobatics with tailerons only setup. The bird is designed by tomhe from RCGroups. You can find the build thread and more info at

Hey I am building this airplane and I want to make it a speed demond. Will it fly fast.

[ShadegrownRC]

@geekpeptalk: It depends on your setup. With sufficient motor, prop, esc and battery it will fly very fast. I recommend that you use 6mm CF rod for the wings and leave the thrust vectoring tabs out.

Nice flying. What size are your thrust vectoring tabs? My F22 wing wags as well at high alpha.

Thanks! My F22 is the original Tomhe design, which has longer TV tabs than the current version.

Where did you get the "Original" plans? Do you have an electronic copy that you could share?

[ShadegrownRC]

I think that the second revision (which is the current version available on Tomhe's page) is better, since the TV tabs are a bit shorter. I think that there isn't any substantially difference between the two versions, at least what comes to the control power of TV tabs.

nice, i think i want a bigger f22 than the one i have, its a shrunk down tomhe one 18in ws by, a d bradley flys amazing, my party trick is an inverted launch followed by flying a 500mah 2s for the whole pack while still inverted lol, and the bigger one looks to fly as well as the mini which does 60+mph slap a 2212/6 on it and it should be a rocket, i just love the mini as its light and even on a crash there is little damage due to its light weight
