Jason is the best at this stuff, he needs a bonus this year horizon

Jason's passion for these aircraft comes across really well, he talks from his heart unscripted at a very fast pace yet gets all the information accurately laid out, what a pleasure to be fully informed by the end 🤩BB

This plane COMPLETELY "BLEW ME AWAY" and changed my opinion of what a "powered glider" can do at the hands of a company that can think "out of the box" like Horizon does from time to time. Also, Jason is ONE of the BEST people in the RC industry to showcase a product and bring it to us in the RC community by the way he incorporates his passion, honesty, knowledge and flying skills in all the videos that he does. Speaking for myself AND other RC flying comrades I associate with, we REALLY enjoy these videos EXCEPT for one thing.....our bank accounts takes a negative hit so many times when we watch these new product videos. 🤣.... Thank you Horizon Hobby and Jason for these great and informative videos and GREAT job, AGAIN 🙏👍😉

A larger conscendo to replace the Radian XL would be really neat 🙂

I’ve been in the sport about 4 1/2 years. Lots of planes, lots of crashes, lots of spare parts and glue ordered. Going back to the month 2, even the Apprentice S on Safe wasn’t fun. There was a learning curve and about the same with any plane. Lots of tweaks with trim, CG, how the plane reacts to the wind. With all that said, the Conscendo Evolution was FUN 2 seconds out of my hand. More of the same through 3 batteries and the last being a 4s. Never had a moment where I felt I needed Safe. I was in AS3X and one the maiden I did hand launch in Safe, but after one turn it was all AS3X. I did manage a low pass where I wasn’t trying to knife edge while nose slightly down, but just leveled the wings and the Evolution leveled out and climbed on its own. The Evolution is, in my 4 1/2 years the best overall built RC foam plane I’ve ever flown. It’s stress-free flying. It’s fast, it can soar, it’s the perfect plane to practice loops, rolls and flying inverted if you’re an Intermediate. Battery life per flight is off the charts. If I had any problem was landing. It just wants to stay airborne. All 3 flights I had to take the 50/60 yard walk of shame. Just kept gliding. LOL!

Outstanding shipmate. Press on. USS Kitty Hawk CV-63 Jan 1980 to July 1983.

The original conscendo was amazingly fun, even for advanced pilots. I crashed mine flying low and looking away for a second. I am really looking forward to this plane. The only thing I could think to add would be a few LEDs.

dont think i have had a bigger smile on my face being involved in RC than flying a conscendo

This plane is ridiculous ! Fun to fly performs amazing on 4S

You are so right about this plane ----- Its awesome -- I have 12 Horizon planes and this is my favorite

I need this for my therapy 😍

Great plane! We love it! My 6 year old son flies it in safe on 3S and me with safe off. It can cruise and glide and can be fast or slow. We love this plane and everyone in our club who sees us fly it wants to buy one too!

A great video for a great product. A very wide flight range and envelope. It can both truly race and truly glide. What a combination.

Great job Jason, would love to have this in my hanger beside my radian👊🏼👊🏼👊🏼

I have one on order. Easy choice. I think (and hope) that if I had only one RC plane, this one could be it. Able to do aggressive aerobatics, to soar and coast a little, to go pretty fast, (not insane fast), easy launching and landing, and SAFE as needed. I use SAFE when I have to swat away the mosquitos or get blinded or distracted, etc..., especially when the flight times are 15+ minutes. Maybe not the best individually, but looks really good overall. It seems to be a medium-performance warm-liner. Can't wait to get it.

6 month owner and flyer of the Conscendo. Still looks brand new. Pretty much fly it every time I go out to the field as a “warm up”. Never disgraced it with a 3s. Last week, I had the field to myself when I got there and wondered- “Can I rip the wings off the Evolution???” (I have a backup in the box, I’m not crazy) I pretended to be 15 years old, and tried everything I could to rip the wings off.... total failure. Not a scratch. No stress fractures... nothing... I’ll try again when it stops raining here.

Just ordered one with a Blade fusion 360.

As always, very informative . Well presented Jas

My very first R/C airplane was a nitro powered Carl Goldberg Gentile Lady that I built myself with a .049 strapped atop the wing. I also soloed in that plane. I had to hand start the engine, I had to hand launch it, and at that time there wasn't the technology available now like SAFE and telemetry. In fact batteries were still mostly MNiH, and LiPos were just starting to appear for consumer use and park flyers didn't exist yet. So with all that said, why couldn't this plane be used as a first R/C airplane? Especially when Horizon Hobby sells a jet for a trainer (the Habu). I'm coming back to the hobby after a several year hiatus, and this plane is really looking like a good launching point.

Looks great well done jason 💯💯💯👊

Looks like this would fit in the Warmliner category. I have a few Hotliners. I have the the Conscendo S, and the Advanced, now I'll have to get this.

This is awesome! Would you consider this as with warmliner-capable performance?

Awesome Jason have the advanced glad horizon has done a few upgrades which it needed great flying sport glider.👍

Glad to see it has better foam, im so disappointed in the foam density on the extra 300

Just ordered one ☝️. 😉. My first E-flite product.

How come the NX series transmitters are no address in a lot of the videos?

How does one manage to look at the small details on the screen of a transmitter whilst the plane is in the air? last time I took my eyes off a plane, when I looked up & found that I was flying a seagull !!!!!!

Hi, when will the new version of this model be released? And if you confirm when its arrival in Europe is expected? Thanks for the reply.

Love it! Upgrade all your planes to smart batteries please...

Yep that's my next one

SmartER than most planes for sure! I'm assuming you didn't get a chance to fly it yet since you're just sitting in the park

Jason Merkle I don’t have the DX transmitter I’m I allowed to use the Fly shy radio control

As a beginner pilot I'd like to ask what is the range of control on these new planes and transmitters? Thanks

Can the Spectrum DX4e Controller from the original red Conscendo be paired to the new Evolution? Will the Safe Button and Easy, Intermediate, and Expert toggle switch still work?

Can the data for the transmitter be downloaded? I cannot find it. Or can you only program it manually? Thanks.

Is AS3X automatically active when the aircraft is turned on? I will be flying with a DX9.

Are there any budget controllers compatible with this model? I'm looking to get my foot in to the hobby without breaking the bank?

Is it a good beginner plane to learn to fly?

I just got the bnf and I was gonna use a dxs transmitter will that work ? Or do I need a new one.

ill take that. i fat futaba only im getting my new futaba 32mz soon 32 channels. ill take the pnp

❤

Is this plane bindable with a DXe transmitter?

Hi, can I ask you about the batteries? can you indicate me the model of the batteries in the video? is it enough 4s 2200 50C or 100C is better?

when this will be available in Europe?

Id really like to know how to setup low voltage alarm on the NX6

For those thinkiing of any new Horizon Hobby BNF models. the AR637T TX installed in these models is locked. That means if you ever crash or tire of the model, you either throw away a 120€ TX or are forced to buy a BNF of the same model and reinstall. Given how often Horizon retire models this may be a problem in future or likely you get charged to unlock. At the moment Horizon refuse to help you unlock the AR637T so it can be used in other models. Model is OK, its not a great glider but its OK. Also not super stiff (especially tail boom) as most reviews are informing and you may want to consider better servos.. also check control cables to elevator and rudder..,. they can slip.

Hey Jason, Why or Who Screwed Up Your Website??? You Now Can't Find Anything or It's Very Diffibult!!! Also You Took Out All The Catagories For Brands & Types Of Planes ETC! Plus You Dropped MANY Older-Discontinued Planes Completely!? I Fix & Repair Older Planes+ & Often Would Go To Planes To Check Availability Of Parts+Specs ETC... NOT COOL, I'm Very Upset & Not Happy With Y''alls !!!
