Freewing VS FMS Yak 130 Showdown!!! What Will You Choose? 

Having gone on a spending spree the past 3 years on everything Freewing, I was STUNNED they put the Dynam/Eflite/Save Money at All Cost style landing gear. (With no opportunity to upgrade) It also surprised me that Freewing didn’t go to the trouble to make the nose cone magnet. My thoughts- FMS is the better of the two Yaks. And because of the gear and slower speed, it’s a perfect first jet. (Just match it up with a Spektrum 630 series receiver for AS3X & Safe) I’m not sure who the Freewing Yak is suited for. I’m thinking someone with an unlimited runway and an over abundance of 6s 3200 to 4000 mah and have lost the will to live. I wasted 3 years being the Jehovah’s Witness for everything Freewing. They really let me down on this jet.

Wesley. Great comparison of 2 good models there. Enjoyed the show. Blooper reel was clean-too lol. Like to give a shout out to ALL our Veterans. We wouldn’t have the freedoms we have today without you! 👊🇺🇸

Very nice & a great report/ comparison Keep up these great brand comparisons- just love em

they look identical! Man if only I had access to an RC Club as nice as the one you're at

I have both of them as well. I love them both. This review is spot on 100%!

I really like the gear on the FMS. For a grass runway, that’s all the difference. $269 vs. $229. I will still take the FMS.

Great comparison video BTW. I was so wanting the FMS version, but I'm good now. 👍

SWEET. Great flying and review Wesley. The Old Man really enjoys your videos. Lori another awesome camera work 👍. Keep them coming. Love you guys. ✈️😀💝

Good comparison video 50/50 in my mind.

thanks for help and support

Great review as usual.After listening and watching ,I would come down on the side o Freewing in this case. Retracts not an issue . Wire preferred for taking off from grass. Most clubs in the Uk have grass runways. Ps (would normally pick Fms over Freewing. )

Just maidened a FMS today. 70mm inrunner is amazing, 5 minutes of HARD flying on a Roaring Top 5000 I shoehorned into the bay. FAST. Superior gear and motor to the Freewing plus FMS finish is consistently better than Freewing. Not sure why anyone would buy the Freewing with wire gear and an outrunner... I will also say the sound... I don't know what you guys heard but the sound on this inrunner is incredible. I have 4 other jets with FMS inrunners and this one sounds the best BY FAR. Probably the fat airframe and all the foam muffling the noise of the actual inrunner and just letting the "whoosh" of the 12 blade fan go.

I have the FMS Yak and absolutely love it. The retracts are freaking awesome. I fly it with 3300’s and 4000’s. The 4000 is a tight fit and makes her a little nose heavy, but it’s doable.

Great show brother, I have never owned a yak. One of these days.

great review,, lol lived in naples and don't miss the bugs lol 8'' dragonflies , no seeums but eastern nc isn't much better..

I'm flying the FMS Yak with SMC HV 6s 3800 packs and its simply amazing power!!!

Just realized that we live in the same area (I live near Wildwood, FL...would love to visit u guys sometime!

Awesome comparison! Sadly the FMS is pretty expensive here in Germany...

Good job! 👍 Fms is easier to get here in Australia so I will go for that

Great review. Not bad flying either. Just a not to FW owners of the Yac130. Fms retracts will not work on the FW. Love both jets.

Nice Comparison flight demos Wesley, Kevin kept the bugs out of your ears as well! 👍

Get freewing airframe with servo installed and shove FMS EDF in it. You get the best of both airplanes

Finally going to pull the trigger on the Freewing ARF version from Motion RC. For $169, that is really hard to beat. You couldn't buy the pieces separately for less than this. Plus, if you already have a 70mm EDF lying around (which I do) and already have a TX and RX... Also, I'm going to try the old school Siren Whistle instead of the Nerf/Dollar Tree football whistle. We'll see how that goes 😁

Great review Wes. I think I'd have to go with the Freewing model for sure. The cost is certainly a consideration. (What was o'l boy doing to your ears 🤠).

I would say it is more of an illusion with regard to speed - The higher KV motor of the Freewing will make it sound like it is really moving every time. The in runner is more efficient hence they run lower KV, so it "sounds" slower. Watching the video there really isn't anything in it, if you want to be scientific I would almost suggest putting a speed radar on each one doing a high-speed pass🤷‍♂️. I love the fact FMS give you all of the "fruit" out of the box (decent landing gear etc), I think it stinks how freewing charge more then expect you to pay for ordinance/upgrades. The one thing i will give freewing though is that you have more room for battery options-i only bought a freewing F16 because the FMS one had such a small battery bay and i didnt want to have to buy a bunch of 6s 3300's when i already have a bunch of 4000's.

Really great Plains, no prefer to one. Nice Video great Kameras. Witch Kamera in use? Know it's possible to have a great new Kamera for on Board filming, you know witch one it is? Give you a typ, verry smal. Thanks for filming, nice wishes from Bern, Swiss

Your next “vs.” video should be a comparison of the deltas...Freewing Gripen vs. FMS Rafale

TURN AND BURN FOR ME, like you speed and sound big deal, i'd go with freewing just saying, great camera work Lori

Wow, Great comparison. Now even more in doubt which one to get..LOL. Is it possible to put the FMS landing gears on Freewing? I really hope that Freewing comes up with their version 2 for Yak 130 70mm. They did pretty nice with the upgraded BAE Hawk (I recently bought one). Hoping something similar for the Yak 70mm.

Great video. What receiver are you using for the FMS? Do you have SAFE? Mahalo!

Your a great pilot These edfs are hard to fly. Defiantly need a paved runway. Especially for free wings F35

Dear merry.. I need honest answer .. which one of them is the faster ? I dont care for options.. I need just to know which one s faster ?

I love freewing airplanes.

If I had to buy just one, which one would you recommend? Regardless of the landing gear, I like aircraft that have good flight and are fast and easy to land.

Hey Wesley. Based on the gear, would you say one would better on the grass than the other? Have you tried them on grass? Thanks for the great comparison videos.

Also... If you dont calibrate the throttle on the FMS they will only give you about 90% throttle... no way its slower than the freewing... seen them compared in person flown at the same time. FMS is a rocket!!

Which one is faster and has better thrust? I want to buy one.

I wonder if the FMS gear will fit the freewing.

Wow, didn't think the suspension on the FMS would make that much of a difference.. seems like if they sold the Freewing with suspension it would be the ultimate jet!

Which one is better for speed or duct sound?

Get it right it right bro --Freewing does offer the upgrade suspension struts if you got to Motion RC!!

You know me. FW better details,& Faster. The gear is the same as Red Arrow & FMS Viper, wire spring. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻✌🏻👊🏻🖖🏻💥🇺🇸💥

U can tell that the freewing has the upper hand but u do have to give props to fms for those upgraded retracts also what type of mic is that on the ground?

I don't think they make the FMS Yak anymore, when I flew a friend and it was definitely screaming fast!

That's strange because 2150kv motor from freewing has less thrust then FMS motor

my fms 130 clocked in at 130mph ! but does not have the retracts ?

Can the fms yak take 5s ?

THEY ARE BIGGER THAN ON SCREEN BELIEVE ME ABSOLUTE INCREDIBLE NOT BE DISAPPOINTED FOLKS

Is the fms not discontinued?

Dear merry, can I put the FMS retractable to FREEWING?

Can’t deny. FMS makes a better plane.

ye

I like how the FMS has no. 01 on the nose and 130 on the back, and the Freewing has no. 02 on the nose, and 131 on the back. Also, did you add the missiles to the Freewing? All hobby stores I checked do not have this "accessory". Thx! Excellent video.

Him: Our nice NEW rumway ... Me: Why is it so bumpy then ?

Can the cockpit from the the freewing be interchanged with the FMS model?

get the fw 90mm yak 8s....unbeatable

Fms YAK V2??

Its so weird.... the FMS is insane fast!!! Better plane all together in my opinion. It needs and can fit a 40c 4000 which makes it much quicker than the Freewing bird. Landings are also so much better with the fms. Fly to two together and see what I mean!! Its much faster than the freewing!!

I won’t buy an FMS plane because nine out of ten you get a bad component on my freewing yak I get 4 minutes mixed throttle with a 3300 FMS can go kick rocks

Fly by of both FMS - 9:33 Freewing- 4:44 Freewing sounds better to me

BOTH HAVE LIMITED SPACE FOR RECEIVER WHICH THESE BUILD VIDEOS NEVER SHOW YOU
