I couldn't find another way to contact you, so I'm leaving a comment. Your videos have very low volume compared to most other videos on RUclips. Switching between your videos and others' is frustrating. Perhaps you could consider increasing the volume on your videos in the future?
Looks like the perfect plane for low key FPV sessions where you don't want to lug all your kit somewhere, and for places you most definitely won't be able to fly the usual stuff without bringing too much attention to yourself. Nice 👍
Adam, great review. I don't think you could have told us any more about it. One of the best reviews I have seen on RUclips for a long time. Looks like this might be my next purchase. Thanks. Mick
Excellent, excellent video. Personally I would appreciate more LOS flying footage and commentary, but what you did cover you did REALLY well. Dims of the battery bay, pros and cons list, and lots of other stuff was very valuable. And not the least of which was how it stood up to CRASHES...that's HUGELY important, and most reviewers pretty much ignore that topic.
The extra foam mount looks to be for a pan servo with a camera, the little raised bit that blocks the view is the cockpit dash board. Well at least this is what I'm planning on using it for when mine comes next week.
@@AdamGdoesFPV Just to follow up, the extra mount is definitely for a pan, it balances perfectly with a mg90 servo and the stock camera using a Rhino 450mah 4s. The weight comes in at 249g. The battery is actually a good bit from the back of the battery bay so there is potential for a bigger battery.
Wow up to 133€ already (fpv version). That's a 30% increase to the price referenced in the review, which is quite a jump. WIll keep it in mind if the price ever drops though.
Scrolled down to this comment section because I've wanted the write the exact same thing, you've beat me to it. Looks like a lovely plane - for that OG price.
Very nice little flyer Adam. It warmed my heart to see your little one out there with you flying his hand tossed glider. My son will be 5 in June and I would love to teach him to fly r/c planes now that way he gets better and better when he gets older. =)
Yeah he really loves all the planes already and he's only 3 🥰 I'll look forward to the days where he can have a go, but for now he can smash planes up in a sim 😅 good luck teaching your son, will be a nice thing you guys can do together 😁
Outstanding video, great content.. I've added this plane to my Banggood cart several times since your last video.. Haven't pulled the trigger yet, but I think I just gotta get one now.. Keep delivering great videos. Thanks Will.
That 2nd canopy is design to mount a servo and the camera is on-top of the servo, so you turn-around the position of the camera, usually this is the secondary camera, rather the nose camera as the primary camera. Nice video and great introduction of the plane .. I may consider buy one :-)
This has been the view of a lot of others. I’m not convinced due to the shape and how nose heavy it would be with a pan servo. I put pan servos on many of my planes for 360 head tracked panning but these are larger models 😎 Glad you like the video, thanks for watching and if you buy one… enjoy 😁
If you want to fly in high winds, I recommend the E-Flite Apprentice STS or S 15e. I have personally flown that in 35mph winds in Florida and it still has plenty of power and control.
Or check out my big Drak that weighs 4.5kg and is running 4.6kw on 6S 🤘🏻 first 2 flights on this motor and I saw 263km/h 😈 ruclips.net/video/x-EFevoeSxA/видео.html
I got some thoughts about this plane: ESC is blhelis - split the signal and connect it to pc to enable brake, temp cutout etc. Stock servos hate having no signal. They go crazy if powered without pwm signal. Had this on S6R rx as well as INAV where the FC sends no pulses to servos until it boots. Getting 50mah efficiency on 4s. 650mah give me around 10 to 15 min flighttime.
I get 15min easy on 1100mah 3s hv packs. Pushing it in 10-13 mph winds with 25mph gusts I have not been able to fly it on a calm day (under 10mph) yet. Matek F411-WSE (or WTE) easily fit inside the fuse. I put it at the back and the vista on top.
Hello, it was great to see you guys flying today and thanks for showing the kids. I'd like to get one of these small planes. Where is the best place to purchase?
Hey, nice to meet you, glad the kids enjoyed having a look! This little plane is excellent! But as per video best when it's calm weather due to it's size. Great for adults and kids. Best place to buy it at the moment is here from their 'EU' warehouse: tiny.cc/AtomRC-FlyingFish You can get it with or without FPV gear. Cheers
Really good review with some good info! I started with planes & helis and then got into fpv quads and now am circling back to try fpv planes (with head tracking). Should be fun!
Thanks for the great feedback 🙌🏻 I’ve done the same myself, got into quads for a while but never really enjoyed it as much as planes. In fact I got the idea for this plane when flying a tiny quad in the park 😄 thanks for watching and commenting 👍🏻
I cannot for the life of me figure out what the extra white piece eather. It looks like a cradle for maybe an FPV camera? I have to agree it's one of the most fun planes I have I really like having the rudder for LOS just turns really nice. Foam breaks super clean love this plane. I didn't take it easy on 4s and popped a fet had to rig an old 16x16 4in1 and now I'm back up
Haha it looks like it would match up to either the top or bottom of the plane, so yeah I wondered if it was for an FPV cam (but an odd choice of shape for it) or if it was for fitting landing gear 🤷🏻♂️ funny that it wasn’t mentioned in the manual, it will have to remain one of life’s mysteries 😅 oh wow so you really do have to be careful on 4S then. Thanks for the info 👌🏻😃
I think the canopy with the cockpit is meant for a motor that moves the camera with a head tracker, I’m not sure how big they are but I’ve seen it in a few fpv vids
Yeah a few people have suggested this too. I've got and had many planes over the years with a pan servo for looking around using a head tracker during flight, but this one just seems a bit odd to me. The slot doesn't look like the perfect size for a servo and I feel like it would be quite nose heavy adding more weight here. Maybe I should write to Eachine and ask them to solve this mystery once and for all 😆 thanks for watching!
Could this plane be converted to a long-range flier? I feel so overwhelmed by this hobby, I've been obsessing over a long range FPV system since finding your skywalker 1900 videos ages ago. More recently I found rctestflight's nano goblin video and it reignited my interest. I can't really find any beginner guides for FPV wings that have been made recently. I am considering buying this plane if it comes back in stock, but I know at heart I just really want to do long range flying.
Hi, it really depends by what you mean by long range. To some this is 3km, to others it's 100km. Personally I think this plane is more suited to proximity... with it being so small you can't carry much gear or battery. You're better off going with something more like a 1m wingspan.
Great video. Well filmed & explained, not too long. Just getting back into RC planes again. Really fancy converting to FPV set up in a couple (Digital seems the only way to go) but very new to it and need some helping hands. Thanks will try and buy u a coffee.
Thanks for the great feedback, glad you enjoyed it! DJI Digital is a lot of fun, it does have it's downsides so just make sure it's the right way to go for how you want to fly and what you want to get out of it 😃 Thank you so much for the coffee! It's much appreciated 🙏🏻 If you have any questions give me a shout. Cheers!
I've never owned a balsa model so it's hard for me to say. My guess is foam is a lot cheaper and more crash resistant which is very appealing to many people. You should give it a try!
Great review and great flight footage! Thanks mate! For its size and weight, very stable plane indeed. I presume your dji footage isn't stabilised in any way. Is that correct?
An insightful review. Had not considered this model due to its small fuselage, but now having second thoughts. ;) 12:16 Wondering if the alternate canopy was designed to hold a pan servo for FPV camera? Could be fun addition, even if linked the pan to operate in parallel with the rudder. (or on a linked switch) 13:43 The image quality variation with this camera is a tradeoff for non-DJI camera; lacking some feature options only available on DJI and Caddx-Pro cameras. 9:35 Wondering if you tried configuring dual-rates on your radio to reduce control throws at high speed? See where a couple 3d-printed part accessories could really make this a goto fun flyer.
Cheers mate, glad you found it useful. And yeah that fuselage is very small but if you can work round that it really is a super little plane 😃 -Someone else also mentioned the pan servo in the second canopy. Interesting idea but I can’t help but feel it would be hard to get CG right with a pan servo there. It sure is the right shape for it though! -Yes camera choice is still something I don’t regret as I’m flying into dusk and image is still good, but the DJI cam gets hard to use as it gets dark -I already have multiple rates but it just seems to get a bit erratic on high throttle. In the video clip I was making barely any stick input Thanks for watching and commenting mate 😃 if you’re buying from CZ warehouse I believe it’s having a price drop tomorrow 🥳
Hi Adam thanks for the video. It defo does look a bit more stable than the dart 250 and talon 250 . Might have to get one! Btw your polar footage looked a bit compressed at times - are you running the recommended firmware (006 off of the top of my head ?) , and full power etc to get the best quality ?
It's so slim and it has a tail so I feel like it always had more chance of being more stable than the D250. It really is a nice little flier though. The Polar footage looks compressed when I go through trees... but when you see any compression in the rest of the video that is unfortunately YT compression. It looks a lot better in the raw file that it does on YT sadly (and yeah its on 0606 and full power). Cheers
It’s funny you say that, I got the idea for a small park flying plane from a small quad I recently got! I was flying it in parks and greens on the estate and thought “this is really fun, but wouldn’t it be so much more exciting if it was a plane!”. So I looked online and this is what I found and decided to give it a go. So glad I did 🤘🏻
Hi, I really don’t know, just depends on the battery size which varies based on manufacturer, c rating, capacity etc. take a look at my photos of the battery bay measurements near the end of the video to work out if they will fit
only thing for me is the price, if it was £20 cheaper i would be happy, but for very similar money you can get a heewing t1 ranger. Which i have been buzzing around my local park with no issues, has more room inside, and can carry the insta360go.
Different markets. The Heewing is for loading up with flight controllers and serious camera gear and it's a nice smaller aircraft for the purpose. But you'd have to inject a lot of Hydrogen gas to get it under the 250gm limit many folks will be stuck with. Also where are you buying from? Our latest Flying Fish was AU$117 (PNP) delivered from the Ozwarehouse on a sale. The current prices are (no kit form for the Fish) AU$131 (PNP) and AU$172 (FPV) ex Ozwarehouse and about AU$169 (PNP) and AU$197 (FPV) out of China. The Heewing is about AU$170 (KIT) and AU$253+ (PNP) out of China.
My flying buddy has one on the way so I'll be interested to see how it compares. For me, the reason I chose the Fish over the T1 was because it's lighter and looks like a toy... which I think will reduce the chances of someone getting upset about it flying round the park. The T1 is just a bit wider and heavier and looks a bit more serious. In terms of cost, like @ theoztreecrasher says, the different markets have different prices and the UK is in an unfortunate situation with not being able to buy from the CZ warehouse any more since Brexit :(
@@npmullins LOL! Everybody's entitled to their opinion. I'd consider risking a AU$400 camera on an aerial toy a bit overpriced for its size also - especially with yours truly behind the sticks! 😜😁
I also was forced to use a timer which is very sad. In windy days battery drain becomes unpredictable (with full throttle fights with the nature). Fish flies perfectly on PWM receiver and it’s so much fun, but I guess it’s time for a FC upgrade)) I’ve done a vista upgrade just yesterday night and the quality is just amazing, thank you for inspiration 🤩 My test flight: ruclips.net/video/pYE3EdMcFVY/видео.html
Quite frustrating for you guys in the UK as it seems all the best deals on Banggood these days come from the CZ warehouse 😬 I believe it’s Brexit related
@@AdamGdoesFPV you have no idea my friend. A few years ago it was great, you could order from CZ and it would be on your doorstep in 7 days or less. Now our only option is the slow boat, or if your extremely lucky which I was with my 3 talon gt rebels for only £100 each, you might find UK stock. But you've more chance of finding an honest Politician then that happening...😂
If i take something like my Mini Drak it looks a lot more serious, like something I shouldn't be flying near people. The FF looks like something out of a local toy store
Depends on the park, but this small park with lots of kids etc I would not want to take something big and heavy or noisy. I wouldn't want to fly something heavy near people and yes it might upset people too.

Getting 50mah efficiency on 4s. 650mah give me around 10 to 15 min flighttime.
Thanks for the interesting info 👍🏻 10-15min flight time is decent, as mentioned I’m getting 8-10mins on 500mah 4S 😃
Any idea how long an 800mah 3s would last?
@@joebo9378 I'd say pretty much the same - around 10 minutes.

Canopy looks like you can fit a pan servo in which would get the camera up.

Adam:
Nice review. Are you using an Express LRS receiver? How was it connected? Was it a PWM version? Your source? Cost?
Thanks. - Jim
Hey, all covered in the video and description. It's crossfire nano pwm. Link in description. Cheers
is the foam construction as light as a balsa and paper built model of the same dimensions would be ...? I've never flown a Styrofoam model before
I've never owned a balsa model so it's hard for me to say. My guess is foam is a lot cheaper and more crash resistant which is very appealing to many people. You should give it a try!
Great review and great flight footage! Thanks mate! For its size and weight, very stable plane indeed. I presume your dji footage isn't stabilised in any way. Is that correct?
Thanks 😊 yeah that’s correct, the flight footage is completely raw, not even colour graded.

The Heewing is about AU$170 (KIT) and AU$253+ (PNP) out of China.
My flying buddy has one on the way so I'll be interested to see how it compares. For me, the reason I chose the Fish over the T1 was because it's lighter and looks like a toy... which I think will reduce the chances of someone getting upset about it flying round the park. The T1 is just a bit wider and heavier and looks a bit more serious.
In terms of cost, like @ theoztreecrasher says, the different markets have different prices and the UK is in an unfortunate situation with not being able to buy from the CZ warehouse any more since Brexit :(
The fish is definitely more toy like and being under 250g makes it the new king of that category. Both planes have a great future in the hobby.
@@theoztreecrasher2647 I am buying from the UK, I just think its overpriced for its size, IMO.
@@npmullins LOL! Everybody's entitled to their opinion. I'd consider risking a AU$400 camera on an aerial toy a bit overpriced for its size also - especially with yours truly behind the sticks! 😜😁
How do you change channels on the DJI vtx in this model?
Planning on installing a Walksnail vtx in mine, preferably without a flight controller.
On digital systems you just change the channel on the menu in the goggles
@@AdamGdoesFPV facepalm 😂.
But where did you get bat/cell voltage for your osd?
2s 1p 1p. lol is that a thing? or even possible 1 in parrale,with what it self? nice video though thx:)
what are you on about?
I said 2s1p. Not 2s1p1p 😂 and a 2s1p is definitely a thing. It’s just 2 cells in series. Look it up 😃👍🏻
Glad you liked the video. Thanks for watching 🙌🏻
Do you have battery voltage on your goggles OSD without flight controller?
No, unfortunately not. I just go by flight time which works out fine
I also was forced to use a timer which is very sad. In windy days battery drain becomes unpredictable (with full throttle fights with the nature). Fish flies perfectly on PWM receiver and it’s so much fun, but I guess it’s time for a FC upgrade))
I’ve done a vista upgrade just yesterday night and the quality is just amazing, thank you for inspiration 🤩
My test flight: ruclips.net/video/pYE3EdMcFVY/видео.html
Max range?
As far as the battery will allow on this one. I've not tested it
What surface deflection you used?
I’ll check out dates and deflection and get back to you 👍🏻
@@AdamGdoesFPV thanks
@@jlacleveland Around 8mm on both ailerons and elevator. In my tx AIL rates are 65% with 30% expo. ELE rates are 60% with 30% expo. Cheers
Блин. Хотел бы я такое попробовать. Жаль что дорого.
Prices vary a lot depending on location. Also prices fluctuate a lot on Banggood so just keep an eye on it
@@AdamGdoesFPV That yes. Just because of our local king, things have become more complicated.
Why the Fu@k don't they ship to the UK from CZ? Life would be so much easier ordering parts...😔
Quite frustrating for you guys in the UK as it seems all the best deals on Banggood these days come from the CZ warehouse 😬 I believe it’s Brexit related
@@AdamGdoesFPV you have no idea my friend. A few years ago it was great, you could order from CZ and it would be on your doorstep in 7 days or less. Now our only option is the slow boat, or if your extremely lucky which I was with my 3 talon gt rebels for only £100 each, you might find UK stock. But you've more chance of finding an honest Politician then that happening...😂
I can't see how any plane looks aggressive .
If i take something like my Mini Drak it looks a lot more serious, like something I shouldn't be flying near people. The FF looks like something out of a local toy store
I've flown finwing penguins from a local park before. What happens if you fly a larger plane? Whinging Karen's?
Depends on the park, but this small park with lots of kids etc I would not want to take something big and heavy or noisy. I wouldn't want to fly something heavy near people and yes it might upset people too.
