    Dude you BUILT this?!?!? I'm in utter disbelief. Absolutely beautiful build. I cannot imagine the time and headaches that went into to this.

      Things like this are built all the time. Don't get me wrong, I have never built anything like this and I'm not saying its easy (I'm more of a helicopter guy). I'm just saying there's lots of smart people out there....

    Everybody is waiting to see a transition now. It hovers beautifully and flys beautifully so the transition should not be such a risk anymore.

    Of all the impressive RC planes I've seen on YT, this is, hands down, by far THE most impressive plane ever. The way it hovers motionless is mind-blowing.

      @Joelmelanie  2 месяца назад +2

      I’m sorry that Will not happen with the bigger scale composite models of F-35B and budget, Cost too much lipo energy wich is not possible to use bigger lipos because of weight, and to expansive for turbine solution. In my budget only normal take off->> inbound transition to hover and vertical landing is possible.

    That's a great work of craftsmanship and engineering!. I have a OMPHobby 'ZMO' which has tilting propellers. It transitions very smoothly from hover to forward flight. The transition the other way round is not so smooth but it manages it ok. How many crashes the people at OMPHobby had to deal with to get it to work i have no idea!
