Wonderful little twin motor FPV model. Flying weight with FPV and 2S 950mAH (plus 2S 300mAH for correct CG) = 225g
Recommended battery 3S 750mAH, but I used 2S 950mAH plus a 2S 300mAH for balance, giving about 10min flight time.

Nice! I have been looking for a none expencive plane to just fly around FPV. This might be the one 🙂 Thanks again, Andrew! Have fun and marry christmas!
Happy Christmas to you too, I guess you have snow?
@@AndrewNewton Around 10 cm snow and -5C outside. To cold to fly 🙂
Nice little plane that 👍🏻
A lot quieter than I expected being a 3 bladed twin. 👍🏻
Nice flight demonstration Andrew! I definitely want one. See you in the Air!
Gorgeous day there, while I sit here relaxing after my Christmas dinner on cold wet UK. Hope you had a good Christmas, and looking forward to your videos in the new year 🎅🏼🎄🎁❄⛄
Thank you! You too!
Andrew. The audio quality is fantastic in this video. What ever you are doing, keep doing it!
Thanks. Hatcam mic was properly plugged in tis time.
Thanks for this. I'd like to see what 3s and a proper aileron might do for its flight abilities. I think there is more performance.
Looking forward to you have more space to produce.
Merry Christmas
Yes, it would be a delight to fly with the extra grunt. Happy Christmas
Hi Andrew,
Nice FPV flight for a small plane. You and Virginia have a safe and happy holiday season.
Thanks Don, and you too
Idylic location blue sky, warmth sunshine....I'd like some of that right now...🤔😳😳🇬🇧
This inland weather is a bit boring really, looking forward to a bit of coastal variety.
@@AndrewNewton I wish I could get bored with weather like that right now...🤔😳😳😳😒
Wow 225 g with 1300 milliamps of 2s power in an fpv plane. I have 1300 milliamp batteries that weigh 65 g. I assume that's close to the weight you used. If you've got that right , that's impressive, definitely meets the Canadian fpv market.
Yes it's surprising.
When you fly near water, sooner or later you will end up walking in!! great flight, :-)
Too true Chris
Merry Christmas, Andrew, and a Happy New Year.
Same to you!
Using 4s 650mAh - 15 min easily.
Stock servos are very bad, I mean they are okay with normal recievers but any rx that needs to boot and doesn't send the pwm signal to servos immediately makes the servos go crazy and strip gears. Seems the stock servos don't like being powered without PWM signal applied, found out the hard way when going INAV - board does not send pwm signal until it boots so the first one or two seconds the servos are going crazy. Had to replace mine with some Kavan GO 6g servos.
Oh, and they DON"T like anything above 5V power...
Thanks for the video and Merry Christmas!
Thank you too!
Wish our skies were that colour! If you celebrate it, Happy Christmas, Andrew (though I guess it's Boxing Day there 🤔). If you don't celebrate it, I hope you're having happy holidays.
Happy Christmas to you too. It is Boxing Day morning here. Looking forward to a day of watching The Ashes test cricket on TV and the start of the Sydney to Hobart yacht race, while eating the gingerbread house.
@@AndrewNewton Sounds perfect!
Hi Andrew. A youtube guy in America called ground control was recommending some older planes and included this eachine flying fish and the zeta wing wing z84 delta wing. I had never heard of either but bought them both. I just got them directly from China and am really impressed. I fly this on 850mah 3s and it flies really fast and is agile, but still controllable. Can really recommend both. Andy in uk.
Ground Control does great reviews.
@@AndrewNewtonYes he does. I started this about 3 years ago when I retired, and struggled a bit on my own before I discovered youtube. Guys like you, ground control and brian phiillips (and too many more to mention), have made choosing and building planes so much easier. Also xjet and petronic brothers are some of the best entertainment on any media platform. It's down to you guys I now have 34 planes and a massive supply of hot glue. Thanks for all the effort. Andy in uk.
Nice review, merry xmas, Andrew!
Thanks and same to you
Hi Andrew, over so many years I noticed you review a lot of planes that need INav and FPV, why don't you review warbirds? BTW wishing you and your family a Merry Christmas
Lack of a good landing strip mainly, but I prefer gliders too.
for the looks ... I want it .. doubt it will be efficient but heck. if it can some how slow down a bit more even ....
Ah.. another one (or two) for the list..
Thanks again Andrew, also for the other.
My planes are gradually shrinking these days, but happily giving up little in the way of performance (or price strangely enough... lol)
Cheers.
Funny how the prices expands to match our wallets
Merry Christmas and happy New year my friend keep flying
Thanks, you too!
So you remember the"Mini Swift" Form HK? Near the Same!
Mini Swift? I'll have to look it up
Merry Christmas to you and your family
Same to you!
Awesome flying location!
Thanks! 👍
So quiet. Perfect not to call unwanted attention.
Flying FPV without RTH near water has to be a bit nerving. At least it will float.
Ha, yes it will eventually return to shore
Coolness. I didn't think a sub 250g twin was even possible.
Believe!
Merry Christmas! Seems like a nice little plane. Would like to be at yours place. Here in the north part of Sweden it's -12 but not so much snow.
Too cold there and too hot here this week. 3 days of 40ºC. Happy Christmas Tom.
Nice! Lovely video with me Christmas morning Coffee.. Thanks!
Happy Christmas to you too Brian. Might have a second coffee myself.
NICE!!
Thanks!
nice spot to play with your float collection :D
Yes, pity I don't have any with me
Andrew:
Thanks for using 2S batteries. Most other viewers use either 3 or 4s, and I am more interested in long fly time and don't have 3s batteries small enough for this canopy. Did you ever find a way to fit your 2S Li Ion batteries? I had to do a little foam triming, but got mine to fit, and hit the CG easily, but haven't flown this plane yet. I'm waiting for an Express LRS Rx with PWM outputs to arrive. I'm interested if you have found a flight controller that fits to work. - Jim
I haven't done any more with it John. Would struggle to fit a flight controller I think.
Looks a nice flyer and pretty fast just on 2s, also the fpv seems half decent
Good quality Foxeer Razer camera helps. It is s nice little model
Available in the Oz warehouse today! Don't know if it's still valid for you mate, but we ran it through your link just in case. 🤔 🙂
Thanks for using my link. They don't give much commission any more but at least they see folks are watching.
Was it recording "clean video" on a memory card in the model as well as the streamed (I assume) video that you showed?
No board recording
@@AndrewNewton Thank you.
Merry xmas Mr Newton
Happy Christmas to you too Fraser
Flys perfect great video 👍
Thanks 👍
Did you have any crashes?
And if you did, would you say that it was VERY durable in those crashes, or just average like other foam planes?
More durable. Good foam and light weight means it will bounce unless you power it in to something at full speed.
@@AndrewNewton Thanks! :)
👌 nice video Andrew.
Glad you enjoyed it
great review. do you think it has room for a zohd kopilot and a tbs crossfire micro inside this plane"s fuselage ?
Might need some foam surgery but it would be possible
A question Andrew. Those 1105 motors look about the same as on the KingKong/LDARC TinyWing450 where the props are secured with 2x2mm screws - not just press-fitted. The Banggood sales blurb shows screws fitted too I believe. The usual Banggood artwork stuff-up or perhaps you didn't want to add the extra weight?
Correct. There are screw holes, but no screws supplied.
@@AndrewNewton Time to wallaby jack the old Tojo up on 1 side to let all the bits floating around the floor roll out to where you can check through them? 😜😁
Surprising how quiet it is
Yes very quiet. Wouldn't disturb the cows down your way at all.
Hope Your World is Awesome Mate!
It is, hope your's is too Jono, and thanks for all your encouragement.
Would you suggest this as a beginner plane? With a gyro to help the first flights? I wanted to order the Volantex Trainstar Ascent but after your advice i will look for something else, something smaller and way more light like this! (I dont wanna buy bixler because when i learn how to fly i really want to order a Trainer style plane like volantex, but i only have space for 1 "big boy")
No it's too fast and agile. Something like this would be the best - Skywalker Mini - bit.ly/3u6GF4p Gyro is OK if you know how to set them up. Otherwise it just complicates the learning process.
From what I’ve seen there is no gyro unless you install one of your own
Hi Andrew...would this manage a Mobius?
Might struggle. Probably OK if you flew fast
Anybody used 950 mah or 1000 mah 3s with that plane?
Yep. Could just squeeze the 3s 1000mah from the XK X450 Multi Mode in.
What radio and transmitter are you using with it?
FrSKY RX6R and Taranis QX7
@@AndrewNewton Thanks!
💕👌👍
