SHOWDOWN: FMS Rafale vs Freewing Gripen

Which jet flies better - the FMS Rafale 80mm or Freewing JAS-39 Gripen 80mm? The answer might surprise you. Pick up your own Rafale via https://bit.ly/3S3qjng to help support what we do.

We got a couple of SMC LiHV packs to test out - and promptly put them to use to max out the performance of these two beautiful aircraft. Be sure to pre-order some for yourself from https://www.smc-racing.com - LiHV looks like it's the right direction for the RC flying hobby to take.

Be sure to check out Hangar 18 Hobbies on social media - and please consider ordering from them now that their website is live! They're a growing local hobby shop and I'm proud to be their demo pilot.

Be sure to pick up a BlueFire or TrueFire 🔥 afterburner for these jets. Larry's afterburners look amazing - brighter than what you can get elsewhere, and cheaper too:
