  • Don't be fooled by the low cost. This little airplane flies very well. Great affordable first airplane for beginner RC pilots. Find it here bit.ly/KF606-Plane
    Pros
    - Very inexpensive. Should be affordable for most.
    - Two channel plane that's very easy to fly. Throttle for climb/descend, and yaw control for right/left movement.
    - Includes gyro stabilization to prevent rollovers. Although a differential thrust flier, the yaw steering was nicely proportional. The gyro stabilization helped greatly here. No need for "bumping" the yaw control as with many other 2 channel diff thrust fliers w/o stabilization.
    - Only 10 grams, and also constructed of tough EPP foam. Should be resistant to most (but not all) crashes.
    - 3.7V 80mah battery provides close to 8 minutes of flight time.
    - Transmitter provides about 100 meters flight range.
    Cons
    - As it is very lightweight, this plane is best flown indoors, or outdoors on low wind days.
    - Unusual size 3.8mm diameter brushed motors. Not sure where you would purchase replacement motors? But hopefully most pilots will be ready to move on to bigger/better planes before they wear out.
    - Although gyro stabilized, it seemed tail heavy out of the box. A little putty on the nose easily corrected that (although it might have needed a little bit more).

    This is very similar to the old Air Hogs airplanes that got very popular a few years ago. They had a tendency to nose up as well. This one seems to fly much better. Gentle control of throttle helps. In regards to the motor size, on the old ones I've heard them referred to as Pager motors, used to be used to make a pager vibrate.

    Looks to be a fun little plane for only a few bucks. Ordered 1 for a mate to compare with our FX808 biplanes. I like the ability to change out batteries without the need for any surgery as with the 808. The price is more than competitive as the 808 has gone up a lot lately.

    For anyone interested in fpv'ing this plane, first you need to upgrade the motor to 615 motors and change the battery to 3.7v 150 mah lipo. Ive made this upgrade to my kf606 and it flies suprisingly stable if there is no wind. Plenty of power left to carry aio fpv without breaking a sweat. I got bout 15min flight time with those batts. Rarely used full throttle.

  • @bogdog999
    @bogdog999 4 года назад

    My Air Hogs F-14 has to be flown at half throttle for level flight. No stabilizing electronics needed.
    These differential thrust craft has too much up-elevator by design, so that speed has a large effect on pitch. Adding weight up front requires more speed for the stabilizer to counter it, but may kill climbing ability.

First flight it climbed to a hundred feet and then nosed in at full power, splintering into a hundred pieces. Total flight time 15 seconds for that month of building.

    How do you Gyro stabilized a two channel airplane?

    • @Quadcopter101
      @Quadcopter101  4 года назад +2

      Here's how. The gyros and accelerometers continuously sense the attitude of the plane, and adjust the speeds of the motors to level the plane and keep it from exceeding preset bank and pitch angles. For example, if the plane tilts too far left, the gyros speed up the left motor and slow the right motor to level the plane. If the plane tilts too far right, the right motor speeds up and the left motor slows to level the plane to the left. If the nose of the plane tilts too far up, then both motors slow down to lower the nose. If the nose tilts too far down, both motors speed up to raise the nose.
