My First EDP Jet Solo Flight

I finally soloed my first EDF jet. EDF stands for Electric Ducted Fan. Instead of a propeller, these planes have a motor with a multi-bladed fan. Typically you move to EDF after mastering propeller planes.

The Freewing 6S Hawk was the jet. I was thrilled with the flight and excited about improving my EDF piloting skills. The landing was a bit bouncy with a slight crosswind. Here is the video of that flight - The video is from the past president of our club, The Wingmasters, here in Dayton, Ohio.
