    Nice flying, beautiful Plain, flies great, very visible. Good job monkeying around on the maiden flight. I like Monkeying around on maiden flights. And Freddy stole the show with his Bloopers. good job, guys.

    I'm currently in communication with Extreme Flight regarding a wing warp in the 67" Skywing Laser. Didn't you have a similar experience and how did you resolve it? Thanks

    • @RCVideoReviews
      @RCVideoReviews  11 месяцев назад

      I didn't resolve it. I left it alone and live with a slight amount of aileron. It could probably be fixed with a heat gun and a little bit of torque on the wing tip to get it in line.

      @@samuellp1146 - Just a FYI tidbit - Spektrum is the original application of 2.4 GHz spread spectrum radio systems to radio control models. It was originally developed by Paul Beard. Insider's scoop: Spektum is working on the NEXT innovation which will match and surpass the present systems by all manufactures, including themselves AND FCC accepted and regulated. It will have a similar effect to the RC community just like when 2.4 GHz did to 27, 72 and etc. where we could not fly at the same time when some one else was flying on our frequency - remember the "clothes pins" on the frequency board 🤔😊😉

      I think one of the things I like so much about the 67's is single 6s5k with plenty of space on the battery deck to install/remove and handling them really is no different from handling a 60".

      "Side force generators" - they help decrease wing rocking at stall speeds when flying 3D.
