Thank you for purchasing our Freewing 80mm EDF jet A-10 thunderbolt II. The original A-10
thunderbolt II is a single-seat twin-engine attack plane, produced by the Fairchild. It is now the
only continuous service jet in US Air Force which provided the implement intensive support for
the ground forces.
Freewing 80mm EDF jet A-10 thunderbolt II, length is 1551mm (61.1”), wingspan is 1700mm
(66.9”). Main wing and horizontal tail take the hollow frame design, reduce the weight
effectively, and significantly increase main wing’s strength. Three piece control boards installed
on the fuselage and main wing on both side. Through the ribbon wire connection, reduced its
install time, and increased the connection reliability. The model use screws to fix, you can
assemble/disassemble it in short time and convenience for carry and ship.
A-10 thunderbolt II model plane used the grey color scheme and posted most decals in
factory. In package, we put three different set nose fuselage decals, please refer to the decal

It used the newest 9-blade dual 80mm EDF with 3530-1900KV brushless out-runner motor
and 100A ESC. In fight, one side continues current is about 85A. Use 2 set 5000mAh lipo
battery, its flight time is about 3.5 ~ 4 minutes, the max flight speed is about 180KPH / 110MPH.
Whether it is high speed flight or low speed flight, it has excellent flight stability, easy to control.
Excellent short takeoff and landing performance, with the new 70mm nose wheel/85mm rear
wheel, you can fly in kinds of flight ground.
Wish you have a pleasant flight!

Traction steel wire use instruction
Through investigation, excessive servo extension line will increase the risk of poor contact joints, and lead to the
servo outages caused flight accidents. Because of A-10 large and flat trough interior space, we don't use the
servo extension wire in this jet. As the below photo shown, package includes a traction steel wire, we can use it to
pull the main wing/elevator/rudder servo cables to the battery compartment.
