Apparently the prop that comes with that plane is really bad. I've get an apc 6 x 4 electric prop on my sky surfer. Only just clears the fuse but Super efficient. I've set my tx to full throw rates and it is quite nimble (well nimble enough to do aerobatics easily). I also fly mine with a 3s 2200mah lipo. Gives me a 15 minute flight time if I punch the throttle but if you fly docile. You can get 30 minutes!! Such a nice plane to fly.
he used about half the battery life before he launched it.... it a nice pusher foam glider for sure...i would add a 30% more powerful motor... i love being able to do vertical climbs and rolls...
It's not designed for vertical. You can use a motor mount extension though. I had one on my bixler and could fit large motors and big props with it. Ie 9x6
The guy on the camera is a legend. Love the commentary.
Beautiful fly captain

I have a 6x4 on it now. Test flight is tomorrow 🙂
Great video and hobby
I bet it would fly better with a Blackhawks tee-shirt. ;-) Nice flying.
If you fly without wheels on takeoff, fly by hand, how much throttle do you run, 100 percent or what percent?
Nice

Its not the engine its the prop i d recomend an 5050 3 blade

I find orientation in Los flying difficult
