Thanks Andrew, great video as usual, short, informative, and to the point! Others will make this into 10 episodes series!

@AndrewNewton Месяц назад

Haha, thanks for noticing Dr

@CapnBry Месяц назад

Love seeing how you set these things up and your how the build experience went. Thanks, Andrew.

Thanks Captain

Hi Andrew, as always thanks for your video. I've been waiting for the review of this model for a while, if one day I buy it I think I'll transform it into a VTOL because this way I'll have a more versatile model that doesn't need a landing strip. Good flight!

@AndrewNewton Месяц назад

It does look ripe for VTOL conversion

Amazing

I really wish reptile-tech would revise the reptile dragon v2. Its such a good plane just needs some HD updating.

👍🏻

Great setup insights. Nice close views in the camera work to show details. Any thoughts on a 2 vs 3 blade propeller setup? I'd be bit worried with catching 3 blade on landing. 2-blade is also more typical of an efficient cruiser.

@AndrewNewton Месяц назад

Yes I have some 2 bladed props coming but the three bladed are smooth. I'll compare the efficiency

I stay away from planes with boom tails. They always seem to rely on proprietary parts that I am a part away from not being able to fly. Not too mention the special parts seem to be less reliable. Having said that, I am in the middle of a Sonic Modell Binary build , and that wing drop looks scary familiar to what I am about to jump into :). I hope it is just the tape and not a wing design issue :)

@AndrewNewton Месяц назад

Great for VTOL rear motor attachment

@tubamanandy2 Месяц назад

@@AndrewNewton No doubt thats whats coming

@GNARGNARHEAD Месяц назад

gorgeous. how do you think it would fly with a slightly flatter tail using thrust to steer?

@AndrewNewton Месяц назад

I wouldn't flatten the tail, that might reduce the yaw stability, but differential thrust would work fine

@user-otzlixr Месяц назад

I loved atom rc planes, but they seem pretty lost when it comes order management. They have lost me as a customer because they took my money, but never delivered what I ordered. This results In paying for items , and not getting them, no matter how many email conversations you have with them. I had several I’ve had several over the last few months. I ordered parts for my penguin after a crash. After 2 months of back and forth, I’m putting the penguin in a box and see if I can figure out something next winter. They were just waiting for me to give up without my parts. They win, but I’m not playing the game anymore. Lucky for me, this plane does not tempt me to buy like the others :)

@AndrewNewton Месяц назад

Disappointing from AtomRC

@snakevsbarukun Месяц назад

What do you think of Altus vs swordfish?

@AndrewNewton Месяц назад

I prefer the Swordfish for speed, efficiency and wind penetration. But the Altus is more suited for VTOL conversion.

@snakevsbarukun Месяц назад

@@AndrewNewtonthen the swordfish is what I’m looking for!! Thank you

@mauritz1774 Месяц назад

When ZOHD makes good stuf why the Fuck provide only 3Pin Conectors in the Wingpocket? Every Modern RX or VTX need 4 Wire for telemetry or Smart audio

@AndrewNewton Месяц назад

I thought the same thing but maybe for VTOL tilt servos, not 4 wire components

@mauritz1774 Месяц назад

@@AndrewNewton but this Problem is so old. They made the same Mistake again. This problem was spoken few years ago with Talon GT, or other RC Planes

The "9+2 Connector" appears to be a common connector. Have seen it used by U-Wing/Fin-Wing on their models. Also can purchase the "9+2 Connectors" online. (9+2 being 2 larger power pins, 9 smaller signal pins) It would indeed be nice to see a "2+12 Connector" A work-around for this would be to use a signal multiplexer like CANbus, etc. to a remote signal distribution embedded out the wing. Another work-around is for multiple 3-pin connectors to share power/ground, so freeing up a couple pins to allow more signal pass-throughs.
