From our November 2011 issue of MAN, Steve Shumate’s great F/A-22 Raptor Pusher Jet is an awesome looking park flyer you can build from foam sheet. Plans are available at: To download the 22-page PDF construction guide, F/A-22 Raptor pusher jet– An easy-to-build pusher park jet with functional thrust vectoring Photos by Lawrence Dong and Steve Shumate The design goal of this model was to capture the unmistakable look of the F/A-22 Raptor in an easy-to-build semi-scale model that could be flown in small fields.

Frederick Mcduff Limited Edition Prints there. Good small field performance was achieved through a combination of low wing loading (only 10.5 oz per sq ft), high power loading (160 watts per lb), and excellent control response (provided by the flaperon/stabilator control system). This design also features a functional thrust vectoring (TV) system in the pitch axis, just like the real F/A-22 Raptor. The TV system provides incredible maneuverability, enabling amazingly tight turns and loops, flips, tailslides, and greatly enhanced pitch control at low speeds.

The TV system is electronically mixed to the stabilators using transmitter mixing, and can be turned on and off in flight with a switch. But for those that prefer to build a simpler model, the TV system can be deleted completely—this model flies well and is still very maneuverable without it. 1 While there are many motors that can be used to power this model, the LittleScreamers Park Jet motor (available from Hobby Lobby) is highly recommended due to it’s very light weight (which makes balancing easier), high power (185 watts), and small 6-inch diameter prop (which reduces prop torque effects in flight and also reduces gyroscopic effects during thrust vectoring). This motor provides fantastic performance on the F/A-22 park jet, including unlimited vertical and a top speed of 70 mph. The F/A-22 Park Jet can accommodate up to a 7 inch diameter prop. The control system on this design features full-flying stabilators and flaperons, which provide excellent control response at both high and low speeds.

Flaps and elevator-to-flap mixing can be incorporated for even better performance, but aren’t required. Rudders are optional as well, but are handy to have for aerobatics and for improved slow flight control. The simple sheet foam construction used on this model builds very quickly. If you’ve never build a sheet-foam model before, you’ll be amazed at how much quicker and easier they are relative to an all-balsa model.

This design also features a simple flat sheet-foam wing, which performs very well in flight and eliminates the complexity of a built-up wing. Construction Either Depron or BlueCor fan-fold foam can be used to build this model. Both types of foam weigh the same, but Depron has a smoother finish and produces a better-looking model. Depron is available at many local hobby shops or can be ordered online from companies such as RC Foam (www.rcfoam.com). Several types of adhesives are used to build this model.

Foam contact glue (such as UHU Creativ for Styrofoam) or foam-safe CA works best for general construction. Epoxy should be used for all critical joints such as the wing spars and motor mounts. 3M 77 spray adhesive should be used to tack the paper parts templates to the foam and to laminate foam pieces together. Begin by cutting out all of the parts templates from the plans, leaving a roughly 1/8” margin around each piece. Lay out all the templates on the foam sheets to minimize waste, and then lightly tack each template to the foam with 3M 77.

Then cut out all the parts with a sharp hobby knife. To help keep track of the parts, keep the paper templates on until you’re ready to use each part. For parts that require more than one piece, just use the parts you’ve already cut out to trace the outline onto new pieces of foam.
