    Review Notes for this Arrows Viper EDF Jet:
    Pros:
    - Looks great
    - Plastic nose cone for durability
    - Grips for easy hand tossing
    - Fantastic value price, check links in the description!
    - Powerful 50mm EDF unit
    - Three plastic skids on the bottom
    - It handles very similarly to the E-flite Viper Jet
    - Designed for 3S packs so you can get a lot of packs for hours of fun without breaking the bank.
    Cons:
    - I prefer all screws to any glue, but it wasn’t bad overall.
    This is how Hobbyzone describes this fun little Viper 50mm EDF PNP:
    "Simple is beautiful. Without any landing gear to deal with, the Arrows RC 50mm Viper is lightweight and streamlined-perfect for those with a tight flying field or budget!
    To minimize drag, increase flight time and guarantee the Viper's precision flight characteristics, Arrows RC designed a rigid single-piece wing structure and horizontal stabilizer. The lightweight airframe and esceptional aerodyncamics give the Arrows RC 50mm Viper excellent low speed handling and flight time uncharacteristic for small EDF jets of its size.
    Power comes courtesy of a 50mm 11 blade fan unit, 2627-4500kV brushless motor and a high performance 30A ESA (with 3A BEC) giving unparalleled speed and sound.
    How do you get pinnacle performance on a small budget? Let Arrows RC work its magic with the 50mm Viper!
    Features:
    - Powerful 2627-4500kV brushless motor.
    - Highly efficient 50mm 11 bladed EDF unit.
    - Reliable, high-performance 30A ESA with 3A BEC.
    - Simple lightweight design for extended flight times.
    - Highly-attractive trim scheme for maximum visibility in the air.
    - Uncompromised performance despite being budget friendly.
    Specifications:
    - Wingspan: 773.5mm (30.5in)
    - Length: 696mm (27.4in)
    - CG (Center of Gravity):60-70mm from leading edge
    - Power System: 2627-4500kV
    - Electronic Speed Control: 30A
    - Propeller / EDF: 50mm 11 bladed EDF unit
    - Servos: 9 gram servo x 3
    - Landing Gear: None
    - Required Battery: 11.1V 1300mAh 30C
    - Required Radio: 4 Channel transmitter and receiver required
    - Ailerons: Yes

      It's a great little A-10. Lots of power for 4s. It's really light, I thought the box was empty when I got it. The box itself is well made. Sturdy and rigid epo airframe. Very detailed and well made. Edfs have aluminum spinners. The control surface hinges look like laminated fabric?? They're tough and move with ease. Foam is smooth and painted nicely but you can still tell it's foam. Everything fits nicely together but the rudders fit was a little loose, for the glue I guess. Threaded nuts for main wing. It's very nice for a little A-10. It's also my first A-10. AirHammer

    All right, first of all, Tim is an amazing pilot so that’s about it;) now I’m interested in flying this plane upside down.. is that an option? Or will it descend immediately?

    • @GBLynden
      @GBLynden  2 года назад

      Thanks Dan! Flying inverted successfully relies on a number of things. Those are everything from battery placement to the mechanical elevator trims. I would practice it on a sim a lot before I would do it in real life.

      Hi my friend! I would say that if you have other planes you can use to know the rust off of your thumbs, I would do that before flying this jet. It is easy for a jet, but they are slippery by nature.
