VolantexRC ASW28 2.6 meter Motor Glider ! :D - Flight Report 

Super! Such an elegant plane this :) at Amazone: www.amazon.com/VOLANTEXRC-Airplane-Aircraft-Professional-Uni-Body/dp/B07JF9ZHK5/ref=sr_1_2?keywords=volantexrc%20759-1&qid=1567147427&s=gateway&sr=8-2 www.exhobby.com/

Great all the way to the end my friend, thank you so much! I am buying this plane next week, I am so excited, can,t wait!

Nice video! Thanks for the review! It was funny you said bye bye before the landing. Afterwards I understood. But you landed in very short time and with lots of high still. Well done! I’ll see how I manage mine :)

Super nice flying plane my friend. Looks great and just like the other video, the on board flight footage looks great too. Fun to watch. Have a great week buddy!

Good job! Thanks for the video.

Good work Dutch. Super smoooooth. Cheers Dom (Essential RC)

Pretty beautiful airplane, dude! Flies really smooth! 😃 Great review!!!

Thanks for the information.

Really beautiful and big plane !! Excellent flight , nice video !!

I like that tail view, and I get the impression that the plastic fuse dampens some of the turbulence shakes before they reach the camera. Well set up, well flown!

Nice landing, nice plane

You would like the AR637T receiver it's got telemetry it also has a AS3X safe select

Well done!

thank you volantex and hobbyking for making/selling such nice sailplanes at reasonable prices! While horizon and others keep ramping up the $ on sailplanes (200 for the 3 channel nit radian? 170 for 1500mm consendo? 270 for asw17 2.5m) Volantex gives us very good airplanes for alot less! Thanks Dutch Rc for the detailed review!

Great review and nice landing, missing all the traps! I've had my ASW 28 for 2 years now and it goes very well. Only real issue is the CG ... would you be able to balance yours without that camera on the tail? I couldn't - the pack basically had to go under the wing otherwise it was pretty nose heavy. So I removed the wheel and foam well, and hung the pack under the rear/top ply plate (I removed the front/lower ply plate). I use an Aeronaut 12x8 prop in place of the stock one - the motor handles this fine on 3S and the climb rate is much improved. You asked about telemetry - I have a vario (for altitude and vertical speed), pack/cell voltages, and current (to get mAh used). I use crow braking for landing, just on a 3-pos switch rather than a slider. I have aileron-flap mixing to boost the roll rate a little, and also camber adjust (flaps & ailerons drooped or raised together) although I rarely use that. I widened the servo cable channel slightly at the wing roots to take a 4-pin connector for the servos - this is covered by a small flap hinged at the front edge with tape and held shut by small magnets at the back. I added cheap vac-formed servo covers to clean it up a bit, some scale registration letters, and some extra red trim (tape). I did cut the flaps off and re-hinge them with tape to get more throw without the servos stalling. No other issues - all the servos are original and have been fine. Like you said, super fast & ultra precision gear is not really necessary here ;-) Short video of mine from a week or two ago here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-77UCKSgK8-k.html

Looks Great !!! I Prefer convention tail...T-tail not so much ...the only servo that will need to be changed for safety is the elevator. Hope you Enjoy that plane a lot !!!

Hello =D Nice plane. Im a Sailpane guy more then a quad.

I got the new AR637T spektrum receiver for my ASW28

Nice work on video, can you do more videos on banggood planes? They have a lot of new ones out Smack.

Beautiful plane from Volantex and perfect maiden sir! Which size battery did you use?

Can you set voice prompts on all switches on this radio? Many thanks.

I know its been awhile...hope you still enjoy the ASW 28. What battery did you use? and how was the CG obtained? All kinds of rumors of bad CG issues.

Nice thumbnail :)

Is the Volantex phoenix 2.6m is better that Volantex ASW 28 2.6m for thermals? Thank you!

What motor/prop/esc/battery combo please? Nice flying, thanks from sunny BONBEACH Melbourne Victoria Australia.

I like volantex! But motor should be in back, I know it's a model of a glider. But still, i love my @. m Volantex pusher plane. Nice video and glider.

Do you know where to find spareparts ? I have two ASW28 but couldn't find a vendor for spare parts. Tips: Measure the amp draw, set the %Throttle timer according to your measurements, install a lipowarner, use the flaps as much as possible and shot down the motor.

Leuk filmpje, net mijne afgebouwd. 100 euro voor betaald nieuw.

Dutch is worse than Google...last few reviews are things I've been researching...he must be monitoring my web habits. Great review as usual.

Where can I get the recover battery and charger?

What about the motor performance?

Thanks Mr.Dutch! Your videos really excellent and helpful! We would love to see more and more people join us and enjoying being a pilot. Please check our offcial website www.exhobby.com/ for more rc models.

Greate review and performance! As a hight qualified pilot could you give me a review of my modified ASW28, look up my videoes. After the videoes were shot, I have replaced the RX with an original Spektrum AR8010T 8ch Telemetry Receiver, and I have modified my Spektrum DX8 G2 like Sunny Soundrise (ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-VpM9AVk_U2Y.html). As you might see I have some issues with the range. I'm only an intermediate pilot, I rely on using stabilization on this model and I have, like several ASW28 pilots, a need for more authorities of the control surfaces. Some mix the ailerons with the flaps, I, and a few others, extend the control surfaces - your opinion? At last I find the ASW very attractive for FPV flying. I have an Arkbird 2.0 Lite installed, and that one gives me all the telemetri I need, beside the sight of "sitting in the plane".
