Thanks so much!

Thanks Ken!! :) Ha! Now you got me going to the field for a roll! lol :) I did see some birds earlier circling about without flapping them wings.

thanks for watching bro!! :)

Thanks for checking it out bro!! Yup, not a day goes by without close encounters with trees or my car!! 😁🤙🤙

There are a lot of fixed wing pilots who don't fpv but fly these line of sight only so it is a lot of fun. They are more stable than multirotors and they are also good trainers to fly acro line of sight.

Enjoy!

Yep! Another fixed wing :) I think I want something bigger now... 😁

thanks man!! :) I had a lot of fun with this one :)

@@RCEscape I watched so many of your vids can tell...;)

theoztreecrasher Yes it does. Watch the end of the video :)

@@RCEscape Yes Pete I had watched the whole video - including the section from 20.30 to 22.45 where you flew the plane away from you mostly in only 1 direction before hitting the "one-key return switch" (normally the bottom throttle trim button.) However you did not show the actual "One-key Return Activation" process or even mention what direction you had the plane pointing when you "Place your plane heading to the take-off direction." :) So without doing the requested test it is not clear to a mentally deteriorating old foggie like yours truly whether the One-key Return Function just makes the plane do a 180 degree turn from its current flight path, or makes it turn to fly backwards along a set "headless Direction" or even magically makes it fly towards its remembered take-off point! ;-) Sorry to belabor the point but please be kind to us lowest common denominator old dumbos who can't even figure out how to copy & paste here that blurb from the Amazon listing. Also I see that Quadcopter 101 was no more lucid in his run through the same feature on the VolantexRc v761-3. So a chance to go one up on the old fellah. ;-)

@@theoztreecrasher2647 One key activation @5:10

@@RCEscape My sincere apologies Pete. Must have missed the activation sequence during a short toilet break - a weak bladder being another joy of advancing years along with deteriorating mental faculties. You didn't try the OKR on that first flight nor show the required re-activation and set direction before the second flight where you did try it several times after flying mostly in 1 general direction. I presume that the plane was pointed in that general direction at set-up? Because of the wide looping turns the plane requires and the need for you to cancel out of the return fairly quickly before the aircraft could get behind you it is hard to judge how accurate the return was. It certainly doesn't bear comparison to even an el-cheapo quad.

Thanks Ray!! :) 🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺

Tim Robinson Thanks Tim :) I appreciate it :) There’s a field here where a bunch of old guys like me hang out and fly their fixed wings. I’d say they just want to get away from the house! When I get a slightly bigger plane, I’ll take you guys there :)

@@RCEscape Cool stuff mate, look forward to that :)

thanks Greg!! :)

Ha! Yes, I am a beginner fixed wing pilot...well, sort of, I did fly a few of them so I'm not a complete beginner but everytime I get ready to fly one, I feel like I'm I am :) Thanks!

My ranger shuts motor down if Tx is turned off.

@@jeffreyhall6345 Yep. The no-failsafe with all the Volantex V761 series planes was fixed for all later-sold units about the time that Banggood started selling the re-branded V761 Mini Warbirds. The original Volantex-sold Mini P-51 Mustang still had no motor failsafe but the first Banggood-sold P-51 Mini Warbird arrived with full motor failsafe.

Thanks :) Yes but there is a point at which it will start to descend.

Flying closer is a real pain in the neck !!!

Yes, I agree. But if I were doing a demonstration for youtube, it's the only option. It's useless when viewers just see a dot.@@michiobosozoku489

It actually has yaw control. It is however on the roll control of the sticks.

@@RCEscape ok cool. if you use the yaw without rolling how well does it turn?

@@cooljunkproductions there is no roll. the yaw is the roll.

@@RCEscape that doesn't make sense to me. From what I understand you have yaw, pitch, and roll.

@@cooljunkproductions It has throttle on the throttle control sticks. It has yaw on the roll control of the transmitter sticks and not on the yaw control sticks. It has pitch on the pitch control sticks.

They are rechargeable.

Lee Maples Correct! This does not have gps. It is one key to return and not return to home.

Yep. "Modster" is just 1 more re-brand name for these Volantex V761 planes. Add to Eachine, Rage, TopRace, Sonik and a few others.

@Carson VanLieu on beginner mode the elevator to go up in the air does not move. In the beginning of your video did you throw it or just pin throttle and let go. Mine goes straight to ground even if someone else throws it for me.

@@brianu33 A Check if your elevator moves correctly B Before you fly always check that the aircraft responds the correct way to both stick controls and under the influence of the gyros. You should note that these use the unusual Volantex system whereby you can reverse the direction of the servo controls of the flying surfaces by the following procedure.... 1 Turn on transmitter with throttle at 0. 2 Plug in plane battery and sit it down level until the plane binds and the gyros initiate. 3 BEFORE you arm the motor (with throttle full up then full down) hold stick controlling the reversed servo hard over for about 3 seconds. There will be a beep and the surface will give a flick. Release the stick and the servo will be correct. 4 Arm the motor and the servo direction will be fixed. Just make sure you don't accidently reverse anything again before you arm the motor each time! NOTE that all V761 planes will allow this reversing - BUT ONLY with the Tx supplied with the earlier planes. IE the 1 where you have to push in at the top/bottom of the trim buttons to adjust the trims. The Tx shipped lately with the Eachine etc re-branded Mini Warbirds has slide up/slide down trim switches and will not allow this reversing procedure.

Yes. If you have a Multi Protocol Radio chose V761 protocol/3-channel sub-protocol. Plane on first then hit bind on Tx to pair first time up. After that Tx on first.

Yes it does I have it
