"Takes off like a bus!" lol I love it!
Congratulations on a very successful Maiden Flight. It looks like a very nice cruiser and I could certainly tell you were having a lot of fun with it ;-) See you in the Air!
It's a nice bird Andrew...perfect for exploring that Coastline...FC and off you go....Wish I was there sharing that lovely warm sunshine with you...
Thanks 👍
4a at that speed is insane. Amazing really!
Yes, amazing efficiency
This plane is going to make for a great video platform!
I'm sure I'm alone in this, but I preferred the non-Hypersmoothed portion of the video. The Hypersmooth section gave me that uncanny valley feeling. It is just short of seeming real.
I agree 100%
What a beautiful Relaxing view absolutely breathtaking
Looks awesome! I'm impressed with all the creative endings to your videos.
Time to do a range test on that dji system, great plane to get the 4 km ....
Great video as usual Andrew. Love your enthusiasm. I'm probably a smidgen older than you and I still Whoop when I fly on my own. What a daft great hobby, keep it up as you always bring a smile to my face.
Ha, well said Anthony
Great video, beautiful plane and landscape. It's perfect 👍
Nice maiden. This thing is designed to fly all day long. When I fly mine I normally have to land because I've run out of time, not battery 😅
Great plane and even better review thanks Andrew
Another great video Andrew. Thank you.
Really like how smooth she flys. Orsum video of the wonderful coastline 👍🏻
That’s impressive. I think this is jumping to the top of my twin to get list.
I’ve never owned a twin, only a mini drak i can’t perfect but god i want one of these haha
I'm about to INAV it. Very impressive so far
Awesome....I think I'd put some Landing gear on it...! =)
big boy!
Awesome, yes like a big Albabird, very nice maiden
It looks like it would make a great efficient long range plane.
Not really efficient for me, I use v3 BH 2812 900kv with 9x6 and 5s, average of 140mah/km,similar results on 6s.. With 4-amps it's really slow, 35-45kmph
Awesome airplane and awesome flying location. It has been a year since the last time I flew rc and this video really makes me want to go fly again.
Just do it!
@@olliea6052 Unfortunately I am not able to, if I could I would go flying much more often. %90 percent of the time I spend with this hobby is spent on building but, I'll at least make sure that I will have several planes to maiden the next time I go to fly :D
It cracks me up that a 5 foot plus plane is called "mini."
The non mini is a monster
Beautiful footage w the final camera. :)
First time I have tried Hypersmooth in the air, it works very well
Thats my next plane.. glad you are doing a video
I like it!
Beautiful. I'd love to see you do some FPV with the DJI system along the coast there.
I would love to try dji at some point I cant bring myself to buy $500 goggles the cam and vtx is about the same as a premium analog setup one day hopefully
@@jcfpv3454 I was a skeptic till i tried it. It changed my whole flying experience from using some amount of suspension of disbelief to make me feel like was flying to actually feeling like I was flying. It's a game changer. The only downside I have found is that I completely lost any appetite for analog FPV unless it's a micro plane with an AIO fpv cam. I hardly even do that anymore. I wish DJI had a proper long range system (more than 4km). That's about the only thing I find myself faulting the dji system for. If you have the cash, its definitely worth the price.
I have, about a week ago.
@@AndrewNewton any chance you'll be sharing that footage? :) I find myself living my large FPV plane experiences vicariously through you and others on youtube. :)
Caddx Nebula video, 3.3k viewers have seen it already.
Yep, really nice plane. Well done.
Great review as usual.
the fpv is gong to be great
4A for cruising means it will take a load of Li-Ion cells. Who said 30Ah 4S?
Ouch. 500 bucks for the kit landed in Canada.
Our poor northern friends.😭
The 2212's work so well with this heavy plane.
Great views, Cheers.
Love it!!!
Now i want this big plane.
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
😍👍👌
How does this compare with the other twins you have reviewed? I am very tempted to buy the Binary because it looks so cool and is a bit cheaper, but this one seems to fly great.
This is bigger. I think the AlbaBird is better than the Binary. But the Binary is a complete model
Good to see you're not flying with a nappie on. 👍
Mask are still mandatory outdoors. 14 days of zero new cases
HI Andrew, Put a Inav or Pitlab autopilot system + 1.3ghz video system + 22000 LI ION battery and go to fly very long range ...
Wow I cant imagine the cost of a 22000 mah battery I am new to wings but that sounds huge
@@jcfpv3454 yes very expensive, 400 euros, in LIPO 6S -25C, but it is for long flights and long distance, the best is in LI ION, gain in weight and more flight autonomy
Ripper plane. Be good to see you get into some long range flying
some info. at 4:15, there is excess mass in the over-large vert-stab; stab root chords Should be Equal. the limited amount of taper at the tail boom, results in more (aft-located) mass. the mass of servos should Not be located at the tail!! each of these Things Increases tail-heaviness in the dom. the elevator Should extend from stab tip to stab TIP.
this is nice,
just sitting back relaxing.
would this be a decent first fixed wing?
Not the worst choice but probably a bit too big, too serious and too expensive for a first plane. A high wing pusher plane like a bixler or a skysurfer should serve you better as a trainer imo
Not the one, Bixler 2 or Skysurfer X8 as Ali says
The trouble with loading a plane with a heavy load of batteries is if you have a whoopsie your plane will destroy itself. Utterly. Its what happened to me once. All that mass coming to a sudden stop.
Got me convinced of getting one, now enjoying the build. What tyoe of plant is that at the back with ponds and big shed, is it water treatment or desalination plant?
Water treatment. Great model but watch those props
@AndrewNewton I haven't glued the naceles. How do you think it would fly as a tractor? Putting the motor in the nose would be so simpler...
Yes, with the right sized motor it would be excellent
Take me with you 😭
Soz, I meant to ask. Does the wings come with the green lookalike MPX connectors for the aileron and esc
Yes, included in the kit
😱👍👀🇭🇷
Happy new year Andrew. Quick question, is your amp draw for each motor? I.e when drawing 6 amps is that 3 amps per motor? Or 6 amps per motor? Cheers
Total current, so that's 3A per motor
Is it 4A from each battery or total?
Total
Andrew:
What is the potential for installing a cargo bay with drop door in the belly? Would this plane be a candidate for 500ml blood bags for remote hospital deliveries? Thanks. Jim
Yes, exactly the kind of work this one is intended for.
great video. I just got one , what would you do different using 4s for motor prop combo? and hows the launch ? one hand , 70% throttle?
This is a 4S setup. Easy to launch but wide body is hard to hold
Are those elephant seals on the beach in the background? What planet is this? If Earth, what year? Looks like parts of California, 150 years ago. Looks very much like the Central Coast, but it's too flat -- the mountains are missing. The aircraft looks pretty bitchen too. And you've got it all to yourself. Nice!
The rock exposed at the shore looks volcanic, and it seems to be widespread. Making this... somewhere in New Zealand?
Close. An Island off the west coast of NZ
IF,,,, it came ready to fly at $ 240.00 might not be too much,,, BUT a bare bones airframe ??? not for the short of cash crowd,,,, ole fart Jimmy
Stall behavior?
Mild, no spin
This beauty is just begging for 30,000+ mah of li-ion power and some cross fire or dragonlink
