Super simple to assemble because of the clever design and easy to follow online manual. I dropped in a FrSky S8R receiver and a 2S2200 HRB flight pack and took it for its first (line of sight) flight with my RadioMaster TX16S transmitter. Also tried out the onboard S8R gyro on this flight and showed the resilience of the model by crashing on the first landing !
WHAT'S GOOD
Simple and quick to assemble
Dense foam (for grey version) so very resilient (as I demonstrated)
White foam light version also available
Good power system even on 2S
NOT SO GOOD
Limited space for FPV but we will try
No rudder but differential motor thrust might help with ground handling
Looks ugly with landing gear (but lower risk option for take off on first flight than hand launch)

*The airplane and the beautiful scenery are wonderful images. 😍🤗🤗👍👍👍*

@GroundControlRC 2 года назад

Nice flight demonstration and a huge difference on the 2nd flight with the reduced rates. See you in the Air!

@EssentialRC 2 года назад

Thanks 👍

@DadsRCHangar 2 года назад

Great plane Dom, great the wings just popped out on the landing rather than breaking. 👍🏻

@EssentialRC 2 года назад

As long as they stay on in flight 😆

@wiggysk10 2 года назад

this is one of the best models I have and would compare the flight to something as good as my strix nano goblin. Greta model

@EssentialRC 2 года назад

Yup. A few tweaks and suspect ours will be the same. Cheers 🍻

@joenaylor34 2 года назад

When you said you reduced the throws it would have been nice if you had zoomed in and showed what the throws looked like. I am about to maiden mine and I will need to reinvent the wheel.

@AerialWaviator 2 года назад

At 2:13, 3:28 regarding balance. Have seen others note to test by holding at front of tab vs. rear, to ensure balance slightly forward. At 11:25, 11:28 "Do NOT hot plug" in wings. Red labels ... LOL (better to unplug main battery before reattaching wings) NOTE: KIT edition does not have come with hot-plug feature, as I've discovered Thanks for keeping it real. ;)

@EssentialRC 2 года назад

Thanks for the tips Aerial. I'll try again soon

@maxun1 2 года назад

Looking foward to see the VTOL version with arduquad.

@Quads-n-Tech Год назад

First great maiden flight... BUT i must say... the wings say there on RED labels DO NOT HOT PLUG the wings...

@eprohoda 2 года назад

yeah,what a awesome job.see you on my side~guy-

@EssentialRC 2 года назад

Thanks 👍

@jakeclauson9863 2 года назад

Looks cool, to bad there's no rudder. Been thinking about trying fpv ever since your rv8 and fox videos. Looks really fun!

@EssentialRC 2 года назад

I'm not sure a rudder would actually help much with ground handling because this is a twin. I think differential power using the left (rudder) stick could be better. I'll work on configuring that over the next few days.

@BRIANFORWARD1 2 года назад

Glad you maidened this one What a load of ol POO. ill stick with my zhod which has the same boom connection and is waaaaay more stable. So cheers for the heads up This is one I'll SCRATCH OF MY SHOPPING LIST Cheers Brian

@EssentialRC 2 года назад

I've not decided yet. Bit early to say its 'poo'. First flight and adjustments to be made. Hoping will fly better next time out.

@BRIANFORWARD1 2 года назад

@@EssentialRC hi dont know if you've flown the zhod drift on 3s....what a kite. If you haven't flow one try it then your see why i said this one was poo Have a great weekend Brian

@EssentialRC 2 года назад

Drift is totally different Brian 😄. For zero or low wind. Surely you don't judge a new RC just from the maiden flight?! There's always things to correct to get it flying well as in this case.

@BRIANFORWARD1 2 года назад

@@EssentialRC well must say the drift straight out the box brilliant flown it in 12..15..mph winds or just chop the throttle and kite ive got loads of my drift vids on YT. BUT I MUST ADMIT IT NEEDS THE 3S WITH THE 3 PROP TO GET THE BEST OUTOF IT... I'll be interested to see how you get on with the kite normally people use non lipos to do long range perhaps it needs the extra weight up front Have a good 1 Brian

@michalp.4975 2 года назад

CG is in the front part of the hatch cover not back...

@EssentialRC 2 года назад

Fairly sure manual showed it as back!?

@michalp.4975 2 года назад

@@EssentialRC check the way he is holding it in the manual again :) Also every manufacturer of RC planes will give you CG point pushed forward a bit (to make it nose heavy) as in general it is easier to control nose heavy plane than tail heavy.

@WinstonSmith1984 Год назад

The red warnings on the wings say "Do not hot plug" and then you hot plugged them. Luckily nothing got smoked. By how many aileron and servo servo horn holes did you move the pushrods inward?

@wearemany73 2 года назад

That thing needs a FC and some aileron stability but also needs an undercarriage in rhe same way a motorcycle needs an ashtray. 😁 I love these little drones type things though, but not the V-tail versions too much.

@EssentialRC 2 года назад

I'm loathed to add more weight to something so small. The gyro helped a lot except on that first landing (possible glitch). Yeah...the landing gear is a bit unsightly but I thought better than hand launching for a first flight. I'll dispense with it on future flights. 😎

@mikebird8290 2 года назад

HI SIR GOOD JOB KEEPING IT UNDER CONTROL. ONCE SORTED IT SEEMS TO FLY OK. THANKS FOR POSTING DOM.🇬🇧🕊️✌🏼👍🏼

@EssentialRC 2 года назад

Thanks Mike. Sometimes maiden flights do throw in a few challenges. Important thing is to get it high so it can be trimmed out for level flight. Looking forward to putting FPV gear, tuning the gyro and doing some smooth flying. Cheers and have a good Easter weekend !
