Very cool vdo, thank you for posting. Amazing tidal flats where you live. At the 6:00 min mark, you dropped altitude, Wow! That's when I sat up and took notice. Plus, my own AR Wing Pro arrived today, and your vdo popped up, sweet!
Glad you enjoyed it, hoping to get back there and do some more flights now the holiday season is over and the beaches are clear of sunbathers and kids. Happy flying with your AR Pro they are awesome wings imo.
Mad flying skills. I've been thinking of building a wing. I was leaning towards the AR pro until I saw some of your videos. Now I'm sold on it. I love your 4S setup and configuration.
I assume you are local then Chris. I cycled down there today and it was quite busy. Hoping to do one more flight along the marshes before the holiday season gets started.

Dude sick setup! Really nice build! Excellent videos. Awesome info. You've got a subscriber here! "I think I terrified the girl with the dog there" rofl that was a scream of terror! I'm going to get one of these soon, just trying to figure out the right setup. I love how you can just throw it and it launches beautifully... I have seen several on youtube having a tough time with auto-launch due to iNAV settings.
Thanks Chris, yes the poor girl was a little frightened by the launch. I am sure you will love this wing however you choose to set it up. My initial setup was 6S and a 7x6 prop but it was noisy and not that much faster than 4S with a 9x5 prop which I am currently setup with. This is just a fun proximity plane for me with the DJI setup I can go 5-6 km out comfortably. This has been one of the easiest planes to launch of all I have built so far but iNav Autolaunch has always worked well for me. My LOS skills are very poor so thats a very important feature to allow me to launch and loiter safely before putting the goggles on. I hope you enjoy your AR Pro as much as I am enjoying mine. Happy Flying!
What are you using for your osd! Not stock inav? I want it for my 900. Have a matek 405se in it with inav 2.3ish I think. Been forever since I flown it.
Awsome video pal. Looking forward to purchasing one of these. Would have loved to have seen the perspective from the dog walkers as you buzzed them at 70mph 😁

Nice video. Think you have just convinced me this is what I need. Only from the other side of the water, when’s a good time to find the beeches empty? Been over a few times but alway ram packed.
I have just changed my motor for a SunnySky 2216 1400Kv MkIII with an 8x6 prop as I think it wilkl give me a little more acceleration out of the turns and better climb rate.

Lovely footage! I've got the AR Pro as my first venture away from multirota. Im nervous of my first launch, not being that familar with iNav, it would be massively helpful if you would be prepared to share the the CLI dump?
Hi, I did the same and just about two years ago got my first wing after flying quads for 4 years. Hardly fly my quads now as this has absorbed me so much. You can get my AR Pro iNav dump here: drive.google.com/file/d/1WdIKnhuoCOJwCWB4Ms2OsKUnbnmBKpSF/view?usp=sharing
About to set up a build similar to yours. I'm surprised it cruises relatively high at 8 amps. Do you think adding a 10x5 prop would improve efficiency?
I could get a lot more efficiency fort sure but I like the current setup with balance of power punch and performance. This is a DJI setup wing so I won't be flying it long range. I am just finishing a second Dart XL V2 which I am setting up for high efficiency and long range flights and missions.
Great job!! I downloaded your other gopro mount for the AR pro and printed it. Is there any chance I can get the stl file? I use the Runcam version thats like the gopro 5 and its a tad to small and would like to modify the camera section.
Great video! What is the flinying time of this setup? Around 15 min just like in the video? And how do you use the 2e lipo? For vtx? I would like to have a picture to steel your setup mat ;-)
That flight was with a 3300mah 4S and yes about 15 mins with the throttle levels I was using most of the time. Easily 20-25 mins flying it like a Sunday driver :-) Not sure what you mean about the 2e lipo.

@@rcnoob573 Hi there I don't have any experience with Eagle Tree vector or Spectrum as I run iNav and FrSky OpenTX with TBS Crossfire on all my planes. In terms of the powertrain the A2212 is quite high KV so should be ok with a 3S lipo and 6x4 prop. I would just do a simple thrust test, hold the plane by its nose and power up the throttle until you feel the plane go light and gently push you had up and take a note of the throttle position. This will give you an idea of the power to weight ration and where you need to launch it sucessfully in terms of power. Apart from that I would just give it a test flight and see how it feels. I have no idea if the eagle tree setup has AutoLaunch like iNav. Good luck with it let me know how she flies.

@@bluefish3607 just a last question sir? How many volts did you use to power the Telefly tiny module? Did you just connect it to a separate 3s battery or did you use a voltage regulator and reduced the voltage to 12v if you used a 4s? Did the tiny overheat at any time during your bench tests and flights? Hope to connect with you on whatsapp
@@raffman4266 Because I powered my GPS separately from my F405 FC I did not need to use 12v into the TTiny and I used a 9v source from my FC. It did not overheat at all in this configuration. See the notes copied directly from the My Fly Dream manual to explain this. In case of sharing a GPS, you need to connect these wires in the above picture: PortA P#2 GND : Connect to the GND wire of your GPS. PortA P#3 U2 RX: Connect to the TXD wire of your GPS. PortA P#13 GND: Connect to the Power - PortA P#14 Power: Connect to the Power +. You can use 7~15V DC if you don't need to power a GPS by TeleFlyTIny. To use a separate GPS, you also need to connect PortA P#1(+5V) to your GPS. And power the TeleFlyTiny with DC 7~12V DC to avoid overheat problem.

Wow, beautiful ... perfect flying, precise, super smooth and fast ... great narration and the final with the music was a piece of art for every aviation enthusiast - love it! Also thanks for the hint with foam armor, will see if they have it, or something similar here in Germany. Regarding your cool submarine fishing contraption, sorry the generations before me f-ed up the world so utterly and so very unnecessary ... one good thing remained, I will never be a proud nationalist with this history, I will always be a liberal who identifies more with being a European than a German ... I love the British but ironically now the UK isn't Europe anymore.
Hi Glad you liked it I had great fun that day. I think every nation has had its fair share of war and i agree so unnecessary. I will be coming to germany to fly with my friend later in the summer when I can travel, I came in 2019 and loved the country, the people, the food and especially the beer!

HI Jamie, I put it to one side for a while as I had issues getting it to work reliably. Just got the compass to attach to the tracker and will be trying it again in upcoming videos with my new long range Dart XL Version 2
I have just coated the entire fuselage on my latest build my DART XLE V2 but not flown it yet. I will be putting up a video tomorrow of the build and my mods. Therefore I cannot say how the foam armour will work for sure but will know when I maiden over the next few days. YOU can get it here: deluxematerials.co.uk/products/foam-armour
@@blackterminal I think lam would be much stronger and wear resistant tbh. I wont know how foam armour works until I have had a few flights and landings. I will be reporting my findings in future videos. Maiden of the XL this week weather permitting.
Its no good at all, it starts to peel if it gets damp. A much better option is to use E6000 or Goop, I have coated thr front of my AR Pro test plane and so far its held up well on a number of landings and one reasonably heavy crash, and its waterproof!
@@Swimfinz Yes definitely thats prbably the best method. I just did two tests using two different covering films and they have held up really well and made the wings stiffer. ruclips.net/video/SvtxLuX2TAk/видео.html
Hi Glenn, just to let you know that it was a great narration on Marc Hoffmans channel about the groundstation and flight path. "He did not made it to the UK" was really funny too when the MQTT data might have lost and we assumed he was still en route. Great collaboration about that very basic and cheap groundcontrol ... Your pronounciation of "Krankenhaus" was pretty decent or close to native speaker. That building was part of a defense or fortress chain against invasion and subs ... manned with a lot of men back then 247 and later by a pirate radio station we had heard of back in the 70s or 80s as the pirate radio. Thanks a lot for the great narration about the blackbox data. btw ... I had subscribed too ... got my AR Wing pro late autumn last year but without time for building ...
Thank you it was a lot of fun and I am pleased I got the Krankenhaus pronuciation right. I have not spoken much German since school but hope to improve it for when I come to stay at Marc’s place in the summer for a week of flying. I came in 2019 but could not come last year due to Covid. I got my module delivered today so hope to do some testing on my plane in some of my future videos. Anyway glad you enjoyed it and thanks for the extra information on the Krankenhaus it has a very interesting history indeed.

Lovely footage! I've got the AR Pro as my first venture away from multirota. Im nervous of my first launch, not being that familar with iNav, it would be massively helpful if you would be prepared to share the the CLI dump?
Hi, I did the same and just about two years ago got my first wing after flying quads for 4 years. Hardly fly my quads now as this has absorbed me so much.
You can get my AR Pro iNav dump here:

@@bluefish3607 Super helpful, thank you so much!
About to set up a build similar to yours. I'm surprised it cruises relatively high at 8 amps. Do you think adding a 10x5 prop would improve efficiency?
I could get a lot more efficiency fort sure but I like the current setup with balance of power punch and performance. This is a DJI setup wing so I won't be flying it long range. I am just finishing a second Dart XL V2 which I am setting up for high efficiency and long range flights and missions.
Great job!! I downloaded your other gopro mount for the AR pro and printed it. Is there any chance I can get the stl file? I use the Runcam version thats like the gopro 5 and its a tad to small and would like to modify the camera section.
Yes sure I will get the STL uploaded so you can access it
Nice dude 👍🏻
Glad you liked it, I love flying on the beach
Nice!
Thank you! Cheers!
Stunning flight. Whats your AUW with the 4s 5200mah lipo?
1322g with the session 5 and 1365g with the Hero 6
Great video! What is the flinying time of this setup? Around 15 min just like in the video? And how do you use the 2e lipo? For vtx? I would like to have a picture to steel your setup mat ;-)
That flight was with a 3300mah 4S and yes about 15 mins with the throttle levels I was using most of the time. Easily 20-25 mins flying it like a Sunday driver :-)
Not sure what you mean about the 2e lipo.
Here is an overview of the build and setup, if there is anything you need just give me a shout.

@@bluefish3607 nice! i would like to place 3s lipo in it because i dont have to but new expensive lipos. I could place 2x3000 mah paralell.. But i am struggling with the setup. Can you give me some advice? I tried ecalc.com but dont know if 3s will work for long range (30 min) am a sumday cruiser as well 😎

I do have also a motoredf 22260 3000kv 650w
And a turnigy 2822/14 1750 kv / +2600kv (g series)
I do have a lot of 3s lipo’s 3000mah . And i want to go longer than 10 min flight time... i dont have to ga fast.. ;-) any suggestions are more than welcom :-)
@@rcnoob573 Hi there I don't have any experience with Eagle Tree vector or Spectrum as I run iNav and FrSky OpenTX with TBS Crossfire on all my planes.
In terms of the powertrain the A2212 is quite high KV so should be ok with a 3S lipo and 6x4 prop.
I would just do a simple thrust test, hold the plane by its nose and power up the throttle until you feel the plane go light and gently push you had up and take a note of the throttle position. This will give you an idea of the power to weight ration and where you need to launch it sucessfully in terms of power.
Apart from that I would just give it a test flight and see how it feels. I have no idea if the eagle tree setup has AutoLaunch like iNav.
Good luck with it let me know how she flies.
where can I find Marc Hoffmans setup. the link is broken

Wow Scooby that sounds awesome, I have not flown the AR Pro long range but I know it is very capable. You have a link to that pack?
whats is the maximum thrust in gram with that motor?
There is nothing on the brotherhobby site, I referred to this video for my information ruclips.net/video/TlB3BBluwrc/видео.html
The OSD overlay is amazing as is the flight. how do you do that?

@@bluefish3607 Thank You very much sir! Kudos to you !!
@@raffman4266 Your very welcome, happy flying
@@bluefish3607 just a last question sir? How many volts did you use to power the Telefly tiny module? Did you just connect it to a separate 3s battery or did you use a voltage regulator and reduced the voltage to 12v if you used a 4s? Did the tiny overheat at any time during your bench tests and flights? Hope to connect with you on whatsapp
@@raffman4266 Because I powered my GPS separately from my F405 FC I did not need to use 12v into the TTiny and I used a 9v source from my FC. It did not overheat at all in this configuration.
See the notes copied directly from the My Fly Dream manual to explain this.
In case of sharing a GPS, you need to connect these wires in the above picture:
PortA P#2 GND : Connect to the GND wire of your GPS.
PortA P#3 U2 RX: Connect to the TXD wire of your GPS.
PortA P#13 GND: Connect to the Power -
PortA P#14 Power: Connect to the Power +. You can use 7~15V DC if you don't need to power a
GPS by TeleFlyTIny.
To use a separate GPS, you also need to connect
PortA P#1(+5V) to your GPS. And power the TeleFlyTiny with DC 7~12V DC to avoid overheat
problem.
Hello! Please, tell how you make a telemetry on video? Or maybe you can make video tutorial how to do that? Thank you in advance!

Superb!.. but which Estuary is that.?....it looks a great place to visit for a walk on proper sand(unlike where I live on the English Channel.😳
@@chrissofpv3017 Its Cleethorpes on the Humber estuary.
Wow, beautiful ... perfect flying, precise, super smooth and fast ... great narration and the final with the music was a piece of art for every aviation enthusiast - love it!
Also thanks for the hint with foam armor, will see if they have it, or something similar here in Germany.
Regarding your cool submarine fishing contraption, sorry the generations before me f-ed up the world so utterly and so very unnecessary ... one good thing remained, I will never be a proud nationalist with this history, I will always be a liberal who identifies more with being a European than a German ... I love the British but ironically now the UK isn't Europe anymore.
Hi Glad you liked it I had great fun that day. I think every nation has had its fair share of war and i agree so unnecessary.
I will be coming to germany to fly with my friend later in the summer when I can travel, I came in 2019 and loved the country, the people, the food and especially the beer!

Is it different then flying a arrow wing?
Hi Elijah, I am not sure of your question, not heard of an arrow wing before?

Do you have a link to the foam armour?
I have just coated the entire fuselage on my latest build my DART XLE V2 but not flown it yet. I will be putting up a video tomorrow of the build and my mods.
Therefore I cannot say how the foam armour will work for sure but will know when I maiden over the next few days.
YOU can get it here: deluxematerials.co.uk/products/foam-armour
@@bluefish3607 how do you think it compares to laminating the foam? Thank you for the link
@@blackterminal I think lam would be much stronger and wear resistant tbh. I wont know how foam armour works until I have had a few flights and landings. I will be reporting my findings in future videos. Maiden of the XL this week weather permitting.
How is your "foam armour" holding up?
Its no good at all, it starts to peel if it gets damp. A much better option is to use E6000 or Goop, I have coated thr front of my AR Pro test plane and so far its held up well on a number of landings and one reasonably heavy crash, and its waterproof!
@@bluefish3607 ... Thank you for your prompt response. Wrapping up a foam bird using film, does that work?
@@Swimfinz Yes definitely thats prbably the best method. I just did two tests using two different covering films and they have held up really well and made the wings stiffer. ruclips.net/video/SvtxLuX2TAk/видео.html
RSGO?
Yes I stabilise all of my flights with RSGO unless its a very calm day which is not often where I live.
sorry to say: the view a bit lack of sun light...maybe should do during summer..
It's never Summer in the UK :-)
Hi Glenn, just to let you know that it was a great narration on Marc Hoffmans channel about the groundstation and flight path.
"He did not made it to the UK" was really funny too when the MQTT data might have lost and we assumed he was still en route.
Great collaboration about that very basic and cheap groundcontrol ...
Your pronounciation of "Krankenhaus" was pretty decent or close to native speaker.
That building was part of a defense or fortress chain against invasion and subs ... manned with a lot of men back then 247 and later by a pirate radio station we had heard of back in the 70s or 80s as the pirate radio.
Thanks a lot for the great narration about the blackbox data.
btw ... I had subscribed too ... got my AR Wing pro late autumn last year but without time for building ...
Thank you it was a lot of fun and I am pleased I got the Krankenhaus pronuciation right. I have not spoken much German since school but hope to improve it for when I come to stay at Marc’s place in the summer for a week of flying. I came in 2019 but could not come last year due to Covid.
I got my module delivered today so hope to do some testing on my plane in some of my future videos.
Anyway glad you enjoyed it and thanks for the extra information on the Krankenhaus it has a very interesting history indeed.

@@jbizzbuildsmanstuff9932 All the OSD elements are powered from iNav blackbox data and then you choose your dials and sliders etc and overlay that over the video footage.
The painless video explains it better than I can tbh.
So are you recording debug or what in Blackbox? I don't know Wich one grabs all that data. I usually just look at gyro and stuff like that lol
@@jbizzbuildsmanstuff9932 Are you using iNav? You record all the telemetry data in the blackbox file and then convert it to a CSV file for input into Dashware. The Painless video link I gave you explains the whole process and I followed that to get the results you see in my video.
