Expressions are derived for the 4-velocity and path incorporating the radiation friction when an electron moves in mutually perpendicular electric and magnetic fields equal in magnitude. It is found that the solution differs from the exact one for the Lorentz-Dirac equation by a quantity less than the quantum corrections.
