Thanks for this review and flight. I've been considering this wing but I think your very well done review is enough for me to make that decision. So, E-Flight.....reward these guys for doing informative and accurate reviews that help us decide to purchase from you...it was this video that made my decision for me. Thanks again for your commitment to RC. If I lived closer, I'd love to come and fly with you all...I've watched about all of your videos and I know you are great group of guys as well as great pilots! Take care and Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year Don! The Opterra is a great model - still flying one. The original was killed by a tree at flight fest but the second is going strong. From what I can tell the pilots the get one love it and given its size a lot of them are doing longer range fpv with it. It breaks down and sets up quick so it's easy to transport and overall is a super fun wing. Let me know if you have any questions about it.
Thanks for an informative and unbiased review. I'm going through a flying wing phase in my flying right now and your video just sold me on the Opterra although now I see they are coming out with a slightly smaller version, may be easier to transport. Thanks for sharing your expertise, looking forward to your next video.
Wow, the circles as you fly thru shadow/sun light is really impressive to see! THe settings you're flying in are great. I live in a flat area so it'll be different but none the less beautiful to experience...… Never flown..... soon I shall.
I watched a video earlier from Horizon Hobbies where they explained that although that little opening just to the right of the nose, in the wing edge, has been used for FPV cameras by some owners, it is actually meant for a pitot tube.
Discover RC That was my thought. I saw someone put a 5000mah in it. Only thing is the range of the spektrum RX. Could put a tbs crossfire in it but that means a whole rework of the airframe. I have an X8 frame waiting to be built but this one seems more transport friendly.
yeah if you go long range the spektrum has to go. it's got the room to add everything you need. it's about 3 minutes to get the wings on and off which is one of the best features.
Great video. I was looking at the FX79 Buffalo but I like this platform better. It seems to be much more streamline. It still has plenty of space for FC and FPV gear. The transport break down is quick and easy. I think this and the Drax would round out my wing arsenal. Florida USA Cheers
Never had the others you mention so I can't compare but I still love the Opterra - it's a simple, solid flying big wing. And you have the room to make it along range ship if you want.
Didn’t realize how big these were but I love wings. Currently on back order but I don’t want to miss out on adding one of these to my hangar so going to pull the trigger before they’re discontinued with the FAA ID fiasco going on!
I've seen one video of it done that way - the wing almost planted into the ground. It was also not thrown by the pilot-that would be even harder to pull off. So it's doable, but you have to throw it hard and get right on the throttle. Or you need to throw it off a ledge :)
I've been hand launching for years. Unless you somehow freeze your arm just as you release it, there is no way the prop will get you. Your hand is well out of the way before the prop becomes a danger.
Love the video. Way more information then horizon gave lol. I know it's been discontinued. But I just got one to give to my daughter. Great video a.d awesome flying.
bigger does fly better indeed - the only problem is hauling those bigger planes around! :) At least this wing is easy to put together and break apart. Have a good one Dutch!
Good looking pup! Seems super chill with the RC. Mine? .... not so much... lol 😂 This rain is killing me! I have my Theory W all dialed in and ready to fly.... been tiny whooping but getting cabin fever... think I may try whooping at my gym late night.
Two very different planes - the Opterra is an easy flying big wing and can be an fpv workhorse; long range, payloads, dropping stuff :); the Radian is a big easy flying glider with some cool LEDs that can do all sorts of patterns.
This video is so comprehensive. It helps a lot especially since mine should arrive this week. Is the Opterra 'heavy' or difficult to launch?...you make it seem easy
it felt a bit weird to launch the first few times just because it's so big. You just need to commit to giving it good throttle and a solid push - it's not hard at all. I am getting some dip when I launch probably because the angle is not quite right when I throw it. There are videos of people hand launching it - it's good to watch those a few times to get the idea.
Beautiful/graceful in flight..... my choice if I ever buy but how do you get the "flight data" on the FPV Screens? I've seen the elevation & battery power on the video screen & IDKnow what Receivers/components deliver that? Anyhow, nice flying bird.
I hope to fly one this spring before purchase decision. There are couple guys at my field that have already bought one. I'm gonna do my best to try and take theirs for flight or two... lol
Once it's in the air it looks great, but launches look sketchy. It's like a big version of my c-Ray 180. You guys are lucky wth the weather out there, I haven't flown a plane for atleast a month. Happy flying :)
it may look sketch but it's really not that bad. I am not throwing at the best angle-if you watch other vids people are doing it better. Still, it gets on the air without too much sweat. Hope you get some better weather! We have rain now for something like the next week or two.
I purchased it to fly LOS but will have to try FPV sometime. But I'm such a noob when it comes to FPV. All I have is a pair of Teleporter V4 goggles. I don't even know where to begin, lol!!!
it's fun los for sure - big and easy to see :) Those goggles should get you going. Just need a camera and tx. I use a separate 2s 1000 mah pack to power the fpv. You can slap a system on it in 5 min. and go fly.
Awesome!! I'll have to look into it. I took mine out this Saturday for the maiden flight and it was daunting at first to hand toss, but it was pretty predictable thanks to the "Launch" mode. On 3S up here in CO, flies alright. I already performed an ESC upgrade on mine using a Sky Power 60-Amp ESC with 5-Amp SBEC. Test flew 2 flights on 4S today using Admiral 4S 2200mAh 45C lipos and flies much more "appropriate" IMO. This one will give my Admiral 4S 2500mAh lipos something to do. :)
I figured you would go to a 4 cell pretty fast! Just a quick esc upgrade - hmmm I think I'll do that so I can chase the jets better. Yep launching at first felt a little sketchy but that launch mode really does make it easy. It's just a big wing to launch over your head! Thanks for the update and have fun with it!!
I would throw a ton of led lights on that and do some night flying. I love night flying my Apprentice as it is. I lovevthe power and sound of it. Its huge I will give you that. I guess most places are sold out of them. Hopefully they make a smaller version of it. I have a huge field to fly in but try to stay close. Sounded like you had an audience there besides the dog.
Discover RC I fly my bigger planes at a friends farm,lots of field. I live in a rural trailer park and have a large field behind my trailer and next to the office I use to fly my UMX and other smaller planes. Seems my neighbors really enjoy my flying and I get many people stopping to watch. They know I am disabled due to a Cancer surgery gone bad. I fix up dead and dying mowers and such to sell to buy my planes. They know this and I have found lawn mowers and weed wackers with notes pinned to them saying they hope I can get them going and buy new planes to fly for them. I didnt know my neighbors cared so much but glad they do. I got out the other day when we had a slight break in winter.
99% of people seem to enjoy watching an rc plane. I have encountered the 1% that don't but it's rare. This time of year you have to take advantage of it when the weather cooperates!
Any info on the new opterra 1.2. Been seeing a lot of crashes on RUclips with the new 1.2. I went out and bought the full fpv bnf with satellite installed. Don’t want to toss her on the first flight and wreck it. If you have any info or know anyone who’s flown it successfully let me know. I should make the drive from Daly City one weekend and bring it to your flying field at the school.
@@DiscoverRC ~ Have you flown the 1.2meter yet? I'm following several who've bought it & I'm a new pilot but this will be my first plane. I can't launch the 2m plane but I can do the 1.2 w/ the Safe Fly mode on. Beautiful plane
Flew my friend today and at 60% throttle it wouldnt take off, landed 50 ft from the throw and broke the motor mount. Going to try tomorrow but wow is this underpowered or what?
I've never found it to be under powered. Were you using a good battery? It's hard to know what is going on without seeing it happen. If you look at the the Sunday vids there are tons of Opterra launches shown. The only bad ones are when I've put too much stuff on it. It shouldn't even be too hard to toss it unpowered and still get it going. So something is off with the one you are flying, just not sure what it is.
Tried it again after epoxying the firewall back on. This time full throttle and some up trim, it pulled out at a nice rate. Once flying its JUST enough power imo, for get about 3D or hovering lol. I thinking of buying one and removing all the nose weigh as we had to move a 2200 near the beginning of the second batt location to get the CG right, first flight lol I think the CG was was to forward.
It's not difficult to fly - with SAFE you do need a lot of room because it limits how tightly you can turn the wing - it does large slow turns with the SAFE on. It's also a bit of a handful to launch given it's size - as a beginner I would not have been too comfortable with getting it in the air. But as far as flying it's very easy and gentle, it also glides forever.
the go pro is fine - it'll fly all day with it. The gimbal will add weight and you'll need to adjust the cg. Power might be a little anemic without going to a 4 cell set up. Have you searched for the set-up? Someone may have done it but it will take some mods.
@@DiscoverRC Thanks! I'm not concerned about the mods - just the weight. All-in the setup is 273g - that's a GP4 Black and a FeiyuTech 3-axis gimbal I've also been looking at the Skywalker X8 but the Opterra looks easier for a one-man hand launch ; )
I normally don't fly it too far since for the most part these days I am just chasing other planes being flown LOS. Furthest flown on the 5.8 set up is maybe 1/2 mile. It could go farther, just haven't tested it to the limit.
I realize they are quite different planes but which do you like better, the Blade Theory W or this Opterra? I'm wanting something FPV. I like speed, flying in lots of locations (fields, larger parks, beaches, etc) and I like larger planes usually over smaller so obviously I'll have to pick a direction and go with it but I am hoping to find something that gives me the most bang for the buck.
if you want speed go with the Theory w - put a 4 cell in it and your going to be over 80 easy. it's easier to carry around too. The Opterra is slow compared to that but flies really well - it's more of a sight seeing type fpv and you have the room to add stuff like osd, long range etc. Well I guess to answer I don't like one over the other as they are so different. Right now I am really having fun with the Opterra.
Discover RC Thanks so much for your reply. It's only a dilemma for people like me who are limited to 2-3 plane purchases per year..lol. Saw horizon hobby has buy 1 get 1 free on the thrust batteries so I went ahead and bought a pair of 4S 1300's. Now for the Theory W! Thanks again!
if your pack is 3 cell the esc will be fine. I think it should be ok on 4 too. It's gonna be a lot heavier with that pack and you'll need a good launch but it should carry it.
Bought one of these week ago where the motor sits it has broken looking at it its not a really good finished. Tryed to do what you had done in launch mode not a chance crashed in the ground every time didn't even turn or go up or down done what manual said to do Real shame a lot of money .
that is safe or launch mode. The dip is from not enough throttle and a weakling, dainty toss. I've gotten used to giving it more throttle and a better toss. no more dips.
Will definitely add this to my hanger. Excellent video.

Great review of the Opterra, I can hardly wait to fly mine!
thanks Mark - have fun with it!
You knew I was gonna come back and watch this GEM
you're gonna like this big ole wing!
I watched a video earlier from Horizon Hobbies where they explained that although that little opening just to the right of the nose, in the wing edge, has been used for FPV cameras by some owners, it is actually meant for a pitot tube.
correct - they thought this bird out well.
great flight and great review!! i had lots of vibrations with the stock prop - changed to a 4s setup and a 8x6 prop!
nice - yeah I am getting vibrations especially as that stock prop gets a bit chewed up. Did you put up a video on your 4s system?
not now, i have some short clips, i´ll upload some tomorrow ;)
stock motor, stock esc and 8x6 prop
look forward to it - your vids make me want to get a clouds too lol
i definitely can recommend her!!
Thinking about grabbing one of these for my new FPV site in the east bay.
Put a larger battery in it and you could do some long fpv flights.
Discover RC

Very interesting review… It gave me idea for the setting of my opterra.
thanks for checking it out!
I find the CG to better for ward of the dots, we moved the batter back about the length of half a 2200 and its gliding much better
I agree - it runs a little nose heavy.
beautiful place to fly, nice video thanks
thanks :)
Your malamute is actually a (rather large) King Charles cavalier spaniel...
But the Opterra is the real McCoy. Great wing. Gotta get one.
he prefers to think of himself as a rather small malamute
Great wing :) With this 3S 2200mAh, you can only fly 8min? Wow, that's pretty low!
Didn’t realize how big these were but I love wings. Currently on back order but I don’t want to miss out on adding one of these to my hangar so going to pull the trigger before they’re discontinued with the FAA ID fiasco going on!
One of their better releases in the lat few years. Unfortunately the smaller Opterra they put out was terrible. As far as FAA eh just fly!
@@DiscoverRC well, back ordered till next month but I’m in line for the next shipment 👍
I finally figured out what that whole is in the right wing. Not an FPV cam station, but its for a pitot tube! Why didnt i think of that sooner?
Nice Wing and Vid!! LOve that location. That must have been the one day I was not there..lol
lol yeah I didn't see another wing flying around...
Excellent video. Can you try to hand launch with no throttle just like the Theory W? I just not too comfortable hand launch with throttle. Thx

I'm sorry I was misinformed. It's on backorder. Still a awesome flying wing. Again love the video.

no problem :)
Awesome! Love your vids. Going to maiden mine tomorrow if it's not too cold. :-)
nice man - good luck, have some great flights!
Made it, without crashing . ruclips.net/video/aWBo36ZcDBs/видео.html
I like it. Looks like on to have.
been having a lot of fun with it - it's a nice alternative to a race wing. This thing can glide forever.

Can we get a video thats just your doggo?
thats a good idea - doggo vloggo
so are we putting a pixhawk in it?
sure - enough room to do anything.
IMHO the hole on the wing is for the air speed indicator.
I would throw a ton of led lights on that and do some night flying. I love night flying my Apprentice as it is. I lovevthe power and sound of it. Its huge I will give you that.

What battery connector does it have?
Ec3
How well do you suppose this would fly with a GoPro and 3-axis gimbal?
the go pro is fine - it'll fly all day with it. The gimbal will add weight and you'll need to adjust the cg. Power might be a little anemic without going to a 4 cell set up. Have you searched for the set-up? Someone may have done it but it will take some mods.
@@DiscoverRC Thanks! I'm not concerned about the mods - just the weight. All-in the setup is 273g - that's a GP4 Black and a FeiyuTech 3-axis gimbal
I've also been looking at the Skywalker X8 but the Opterra looks easier for a one-man hand launch ; )
It's an easy wing to launch - with the extra weight you'll need more power. But launching it in SAFE mode is usually a non event.
what kind of flying time are you getting with the 3s 2200?
I would usually go around 10 minutes - you can up the pack and get much longer flight times.
I'd appreciate it if you could tell us: what radio do you use? what range do you manage to get?
DX18 - Haven't pushed it to the limits of the radio range. You would lose los on it and/or fpv signal on it first before that happens.
tks 4 the prompt reply! what range do you normally operate in?
I normally don't fly it too far since for the most part these days I am just chasing other planes being flown LOS. Furthest flown on the 5.8 set up is maybe 1/2 mile. It could go farther, just haven't tested it to the limit.

Thanks so much for your reply. It's only a dilemma for people like me who are limited to 2-3 plane purchases per year..lol. Saw horizon hobby has buy 1 get 1 free on the thrust batteries so I went ahead and bought a pair of 4S 1300's. Now for the Theory W!
Thanks again!
Very vague radio setup for my Spektrum DX7S, Did you dial out rudder control??? Mine works as elevator!
did you change the wing type to elevon?
Discover RC. Yes I did, All works like it should but when I give it rudder input the ailerons work as Elevator lol.
that's pretty weird - well if the elevons are working normally you could just zero the throws on rudder so it won't do anything.
Discover RC That’s what I’ve done, Thanks!
Love it’ ,will buy one after I sell a few more bikes. Running out of room
hey it doesn't take up much space broken down :)
Got mine today. What's the biggest 3s you can put in the wing? Could I use my full sized 5500mah even though its still the stock 40a esc?
if your pack is 3 cell the esc will be fine. I think it should be ok on 4 too. It's gonna be a lot heavier with that pack and you'll need a good launch but it should carry it.
This is begging for a uhf + 1.3 + Vector!
yep - was thinking if I should pursue the long range route.
Northern FPV ?can put additional satellite receiver to ar636a receiver?
Bought one of these week ago where the motor sits it has broken looking at it its not a really good finished. Tryed to do what you had done in launch mode not a chance crashed in the ground every time didn't even turn or go up or down done what manual said to do
Real shame a lot of money .
That dog looks like a King Charles cavalier
If you're trying to find your CG, I'm right here
Launch it in launch mode and it won't dip like that.
that is safe or launch mode. The dip is from not enough throttle and a weakling, dainty toss. I've gotten used to giving it more throttle and a better toss. no more dips.
That looks like my dog, I told my kids you took her ! jk
your story will fall apart when you bring back a boy cavalier :)
