The CNHL 75mm EDF pilot figure is designed for 80–90mm RC jet airplanes that need a more realistic cockpit appearance without adding excessive weight. The modern jet-pilot design features a flight helmet, dark visor, oxygen mask, flight suit and harness detailing, making it a useful replacement or upgrade for scale EDF cockpits.
At approximately 38g, the figure is compact enough for many medium-to-large EDF installations while still providing enough visual detail to remain clearly visible through the canopy. Its approximately 75mm height makes it particularly suitable for 80mm and 90mm EDF jets where a full-size cockpit figure would be too large.
The figure can be used in aircraft such as the Freewing 90mm T-45 and other similarly sized EDF models, but cockpit dimensions vary between aircraft. Always compare the figure dimensions with the available canopy and cockpit space before installation.

Realistic Modern Jet Pilot Design
A detailed cockpit can make a major visual difference to an EDF jet, particularly on aircraft with a large clear canopy. This pilot figure uses a modern military-jet appearance with a dark flight helmet, visor, oxygen mask and hose, green flight suit and harness detailing.
The upper-body design is particularly useful for EDF aircraft where the cockpit tub does not have enough depth for a complete full-body pilot figure.
75mm Pilot Figure for 80mm and 90mm EDF Jets
This figure is primarily intended for the cockpit proportions commonly found in 80mm and 90mm EDF RC jets. With an overall height of approximately 75mm and a weight of only around 38g, it offers a useful balance between visual scale presence and practical installation weight.
It can also be considered for other RC airplanes with a suitably sized cockpit. The important measurement is the actual space under the canopy rather than EDF diameter alone.
Pilot Figure for the Freewing 90mm T-45
The Freewing 90mm T-45 is one of the intended applications for this EDF pilot figure. Its modern helmet, oxygen mask and flight-suit styling complement the T-45's military trainer cockpit, while the compact upper-body construction allows it to sit beneath the canopy without requiring a full-depth pilot seat installation.
If you are replacing an existing Freewing T-45 pilot or building a custom cockpit, compare the 75mm height, 66mm maximum front width and approximately 26mm side depth with your existing cockpit configuration before permanently mounting the figure.
Cockpit Installation Tips
1. Test canopy clearance first. Temporarily position the pilot before applying adhesive and make sure the helmet or visor does not contact the canopy.
2. Check pilot position from outside the aircraft. Small adjustments in seat height and fore-aft position can noticeably improve the scale appearance.
3. Secure the figure carefully. Use a mounting method appropriate for the cockpit tub material and avoid adhesives that could damage surrounding foam, plastic or canopy surfaces.
4. Recheck aircraft balance. Although the figure weighs only around 38g, any added cockpit accessory can slightly affect the CG of smaller EDF aircraft depending on where it is installed.
Why Add a Pilot Figure to an EDF Jet?
An empty cockpit is especially noticeable on scale EDF aircraft with large canopies. Adding a properly sized RC pilot figure gives the aircraft a more complete appearance both on the ground and during close flybys, making it a simple visual upgrade for scale-oriented EDF builds and replacement cockpit projects.
Frequently Asked Questions
What size EDF airplane is this pilot figure designed for?
It is primarily intended for 80mm and 90mm EDF RC airplanes. Because cockpit dimensions vary considerably between aircraft, always check the available cockpit space rather than selecting the figure only by EDF fan size.
Will this pilot fit a Freewing 90mm T-45?
The Freewing 90mm T-45 is one of the intended applications for this pilot figure. For replacement or custom installations, check your individual cockpit configuration and canopy clearance before fixing the figure permanently.
How tall is the EDF pilot?
The figure is approximately 75mm tall, with a maximum front width of approximately 66mm and a side depth of approximately 26mm.
How much does the pilot figure weigh?
It weighs approximately 38g. After installation, recheck the aircraft CG before flying.
Can I use it in an RC airplane that is not an EDF jet?
Yes. It can be used in other RC aircraft or custom cockpit projects when the available space and scale appearance are suitable. The 80–90mm EDF designation should be treated as the primary application range rather than an absolute restriction.
