Hi Nate and Abby I just knew how you would love the xk x450.Also you would give the best tutorial,which I have now watched a half dozen times .WELL DONE
Hi! I sincerely seek your advice. i have completely no experience with RC planes or Drones at all. Between the X520 and X450, which will you recommend for me to get considering my absolute zero experience? pls kindly include product's durability to survive crash and control distance into your recommendation if possible . Thank you very much in advance !!!
I’m 40ish an got this for Christmas an love it!!! I fly in my front yard in a subdivision. Take it up in drone mode an throw it into plane mode above the houses. Flys so easy in safe mode yet i can still get it to cyclone spin. Not sure how I stumbled onto this channel but you have a loyal subscriber in me! Thank you for the always unbiased reviews you guys provide for the RC hobby!
I have to say, been watching for years, bought a couple things you’ve shown. I have done boats, cars, planes drones and helis. This looks like the most fun of anything yet. Definitely a winner!
A very big thanks to Nate and Abby for doing the best video on the xk x450 ,I knew you love it .I have one on order and I can’t wait,I bought one for £100 on EBay in UK .This last 10 days or so you have brought some fantastic RC to air THANKS
Sold! I'm in Australia, so I didn't use your link, but signed up on Patreon instead. YOU got me into RC planes. I bought the Eachine P51 from your video, and now this. My collection has begun, and it's all your fault.
10/10 for enthusiasm and energy, I like this plane and even though I am 61 and should be checking on Cricket scores and what next door's cat does to my vegetable garden I'd much, much much rather be out and about with something like this so I am going to make one! ( I'll post the results on RUclips-somehow!) Thank you so much for the inspiration-your latest subscriber!
I watched this video and ordered the plane for myself. I came on December 14, 2019. I love it. I does meet my expectations fully. I have not pushed the red button as yet, but wish to get used to it for several flights before I go to 3-D mode. A great plane. Lots of fun.
Out of sight wow, just what I have been waiting for.... great Drone/Plane OK Nate on order can't wait this is just what I have been waiting for....Something I could learn on and do a little of everything with one model....
Lol, Hey we love this hobby and are always looking out for everyone. On one side of the fence, we do our best to share the duds. On the other side, if something is awesome we are more than happy to share it with everyone 👍⚓😃
Wow that's totally sick!!! :-) When you did those pirouettes in vertical flight, the first thing that came to mind was, *"O COOL! WASHINGMACHINE MODE!!!"* because it looked like the agitator in a washer. ;-)
I know this video is two years old but I'm just finding it and every time you and Abby geek out on a plane I buy it and your evaluations are spot on I've ever time said yeah this is everything Nate said it was... Absolutely love your channel keep it up just how you are doing it... God bless
You were so right yesterday when you said don't miss today's video! This is so cool! I've been holding back on making purchases but this is a must have for me! Thank you for this and all your videos!
watched a lot of your videos ... Enjoyed them all .. great channel... only time i disagreed with you was with the mavic mini ...but i understand your frustrations with it .. i choose to overlook them.. Just wanted to let you know that i purchased a few aircraft after watching your videos and i was not disapointed ... Thanks for all you do....
The last time you told me to buy something was that little army guy surfing on the two prop drone, board flyer thingy!! I bought it. Now I will buy this. I want to get into flying but have limited capabilities. YES!! This is so cool. Thanks for the vid and your enthusiasm guyz.
Yes, you are absolutely right, among all the full scale as well as toy scale evtol models this model is highly balanced in all aspects including manuoerablity, l wish to make a two seater real evtol like this, All the best sir 😄
Finally your video on X450 is out!!! I sincerely seek your advice. i have completely no experience with RC planes or Drones at all. Between the X520 and X450, which will you recommend for me to get considering my absolute zero experience? kindly include product durability to survive crash and control distance into your recommendation. Thank you!!!
At first I thought it was just gonna be a convergence clone, but it adds another neat feature to the vertical flight regime, while retaining incredibly crisp transition and flight on such a small platform! Is actually pretty impressive
Okay...so I'm learning that "easy" to fly for you doesn't mean that I won't crash it. I crashed it on the maiden flight. Bought another one. Crashed it. Fixed it. Flew it well. Went out again. Crashed it. They're not forgiving when they crash. So now I've got two of these, both broken awaiting parts.
Nate! I just bought one! thanks! I thought I asked that you and Abby are to only show what not to buy? but No here we go again! LOL great Job keep up the great videos. Abby needs to fly more!
Fantastic “ pass the time “ plane/drone 👍👍 just been on banggood and the transmitter has got on the left hand side ‘Stuck Mode’ 🤣, would that be ‘Stick Mode’? i.e. mode 1 or mode 2? A lot of people fly mode 2 nowadays, but I’m old school and fly mode 1 but couldn’t find any reference on the site to see if the controller was switchable? Could you find out? Thank you, 183,000 brilliant! Well done to you both! 👌👌👌👍👍
Fun video and looks like a fun plane to fly. Interesting that you said for a drone flyer to get into planes. Our Buddy Rick let me fly his XK X520 while in North Carolina and I was HOOKED! I had 10 drones but now only fly 1 just to video my plane flights. XK does make some really durable fun planes, I should know, I crashed mine at full speed with FPV into myself and a light pole. Videos are embarrassing but funny. This one looks even more durable and fun! I may pick one of these up for my Son In Law for Christmas! Thanks for the review!
Fun plane! XK keeps rocking the RC world for most fun on a budget (them and WL Toys). I have the XK X520, the other one you mentioned that you reviewed, and it still holds up. Having fun seeing you guys doing the mini-unofficial-plane-week!
Not sure which is better the Plane or Nate's reaction. LOL. Even after the file loss it didn't take long for him to get excited. Nice video. and YES I want one now. Nate get Abby one please.
Hi TheRcSaylors, thanks for sharing, love your work/videos. At 5:35 mark, seems something is also being entertained in the sky, (cough cough) the cloud that looks like something trying to look like a cloud. Then the butterfly, which probably was a sign from them. Anyhoo, enjoy yourselves.
Great video! I have one ordered. I hear you have to avoid the 1300 mAh upgrade batteries due to larger size that will not fit without cutting out foam.
I own an XK X520 (the other one y'all refer to), and it's great. But I haven't been really excited about an RC much of late. I am halfway through this video and I know I will get one of these. And soon, before the price goes up. :)
The X450 is definitely a fun model! I flew a couple batteries today at the park and had a group of little kids running after it. The adults think I am a pro pilot when all I am doing is hitting a few buttons, lol. Thanks for the video review, going to watch and see if I can get any pointers ;)
Yep, looked at your videos over time, got the xk x520, then the carbon cub s+ both of which are excellent, want to try Quads and spotted this on your channel,... so just ordered one of these. Keep up the informative reviews, they're great !!
Abby did say in this video she wished you had two so you could fly together you technically do you have the jjrc version they basically the same plane for the most part I have the X KX450 version like the one in this video with an fpv camera mounted on it love it so much thought about buying a second one didn't know if I should get another xkx version or maybe get the jjrc version was the reason that I was curious which one do you like better
My 450 lasted one flight. Now both flaps are broke off and one of the motors snapped off. 2 of the crashes were caused by the v-mde sending it into a wonky spin and twice it just dropped out of the sky in winged mode. My 520 is still good to go. It flies on 3S too...
Wow wow and wow. I guess I will have look into this one too. I may have to stop watching your videos (not going to happen) cause everything I see I want one too.
Great review! I just ordered one. Can you tell me if the transmitter it comes with will work for the xk helichopters? I recently purchased the XK k110. Thxs!
That is certainly an interesting aircraft! Does it just use it's ailerons as elevators, or does it use the rear engine as an elevator? Or does it tilt front motors up and down to give you something similar to elevator control? I assume it is using differential thrust give you rudder-like control...what genius came up with this?!
Love it! This one looks great. What I like about vtol is you can fly it from your front yard. It doesn't need a long runway to take off and land, just go in drone mode take off the back in same mode to land. Can it take of and land in vertical mode as well? I believe this maybe one of the coolest rc products I've ever seen on your channel.
The camera on the X520 also never amounted to much (except for filming ground whizzing by most of the time) so it will be kinda the same for a possible camera version of this one; those swivels they have installed can't be pointed straight forwards and always point down: no use. Using something like a small SQ camera, a 808 #16 camera or a Mobius Mini would yield much better results.
If one were to mount a fpv camera on it, where would be the best location?, how would you attach it (glue,tape)?? and what would be a camera you would recommend? After flying this, it would be super cool to be able to watch the flight from the (cock pit so to speak) on your computer laptop or a smart phone. Could you do a video about doing that on a plane say like this or a jet, and then show some flying footage?
Hi, I have a question... I understand the rudder is the left stick with throttle... In 3d mode when you're in airplane is the rudder STILL the left stick??? Reason I asked is I've seen simulators online of guys using their transmitters. And they're using right stick for rolls, turns, dive, and climbs and their left stick is ONLY for throttle! Was curious about the XK X450s transmitter rudder.... I understand in 6g mode you can use right stick for everything.... Its the 3d acro I'm curious about... I appreciate and help in this... 😃
It is great. It is helping me with my plane flying skills and when I lose control I can throw the switch. I like amazing stuff because it helps me have more fun.
I bought this on your recommendations. It it easy to fly and will do unreal acrobatics. BUT the front servos are horrible. First flight, took it up about 40 feet. Did some banks, rolls, vertical climbs, diving to 20 feet letting go of the stick, it leveled out perfectly. Figured it was time to land and see where the battery was. Flipped the switch & the plane whined loudly & death spiralled into the ground. I killed the thrust before it crashed but even after the crash the plane was still whining. It was the port front servo. It was extremely hot. I unplugged the plane and removed the cowling. The servo motor had swelled the servo casing. Tookn it apart and sure enough it had chewed several teeth on the gears & when it over heated it melted the plastic casing. I thought odd, it must be s bad servo. So off i went to order more props & servos. I ordered 2 of the front & rear servos. Two weeks later. I changed out the servo & went flying. This time I kept it simple. Took it up to 30 feet & flew a figure 8 banked it back to me. Then leveled it out. Throttled down to 20% and flipped the switch to hover. Same thing death spiral to the ground. This time it was the servo I didn't replace. Ok the two that came with it were bad. I had a spare. I swapped it out. Went out again, and hovered to 20 ft switched to flight mode went out 40 feet and banked back. Switched to hover and poof instant death spiral. I have 2 metal gear replacements on order. If you buy this plane, don't fly, it till you replace the front servos. Or you will be very disappointed.
I have the same problem as Very Wise, my house is looking like a hangar in an air show. However keep up the videos guy, I can always build an extension 😂
the articulating motor/props are pretty cool! When can we get that same technology on Camera Angle for quads! As pitch increases so does camera angle and vice versa!
Never flown more than a twin rotor indoor helicopter, but I bit the bullet and it is here in front of me, now what size camera will fit and what else do I need to fpv it?, and being absolute newbie what doe's the three position switch top left do as you only talked about the red button. It has a photo button on it does this mean it could have fpv or just a camera for photography. Maybe it was not the right choice for an absolute beginner, but you inspired me to go for it what can I say. What do I need to fit a camera in it. Did your's come with LED's already fitted on the underside. It is 0030hrs and I want to fly it now, as it is the first chance I have had to unbox it, so maybe I should wait. I need more detail on this and flight schooling no one near me flies we do not have a flight feild designated club within a 150 miles away.
Yes ours did come with lights attached already. Did yours not have lights? Also, I am positive that I discussed the three position switch in this video my friend, I think a couple times but I know for sure once 😉 I think this is beginner friendly, but I would highly advise waiting for a nice calm evening in a very open space for your first flight. Also for your first flight, just keep it in hover mode and maintain a couple feet off the ground but no higher than 10 feet or so up, till you get used to the controls. Happy Flying! 👍⚓😎
Just Got My XK X450, no flight as of yet been working through manual, charging battery acclimatizing to remote functions. Thinking of mounting bright LED in the camera bay. Any Thought? tips, pointers to operate with transmitter might be a flash at first then a constant have not tried just from what was read on transmitter.
I think this will be my next plane, I got loads of MJX drones so I need a nice interesting plane, this vector thrust plane is cool and interesting at a decent price, looks like fun.
That was one nifty plane. A plane, a quad, an acrobatic flyer definitely one to get.Maybe with all that fancy acrobatic flying you were doing a 🦋🦋Butterfly mating flight.🦋🦋. Then when you were holding the plane, you broke💔💔 the poor Butterflies 🦋🦋 little heart. 😊😊😊. ⚓👍👍💖⚓⚓.
How is this better than the xk520 y'all made me buy? It's pretty great too and can take off and land conventionally. Not a rhetorical question, someone enlighten me. I do like how it takes flight vertically tho.
GREAT plane drone combo this is the best they must make a new one tell them three times this size they will be on a winner chicken dinner keep vids going love them all all the best to the family

Hi Nate and Abby I just knew how you would love the xk x450.Also you would give the best tutorial,which I have now watched a half dozen times .WELL DONE
Hi!
I sincerely seek your advice.
i have completely no experience with RC planes or Drones at all.
Between the X520 and X450, which will you recommend for me to get considering my absolute zero experience?
pls kindly include product's durability to survive crash and control distance into your recommendation if possible .
Thank you very much in advance !!!
Mine drifts a lot on the horizontal mode. How do I get it to hover
I’m 40ish an got this for Christmas an love it!!! I fly in my front yard in a subdivision. Take it up in drone mode an throw it into plane mode above the houses. Flys so easy in safe mode yet i can still get it to cyclone spin. Not sure how I stumbled onto this channel but you have a loyal subscriber in me! Thank you for the always unbiased reviews you guys provide for the RC hobby!
I love flying mine, it's so stable, and over 13 minutes flight time. Very durable and well built,It costs less than 180 dollars.
I have to say, been watching for years, bought a couple things you’ve shown. I have done boats, cars, planes drones and helis. This looks like the most fun of anything yet. Definitely a winner!
I have never owned a RC plane, boat, car or drone. I absolutely love this channel. You are fun to watch
Thank you very much Jeff! 👍😁😎⚓️
A very big thanks to Nate and Abby for doing the best video on the xk x450 ,I knew you love it .I have one on order and I can’t wait,I bought one for £100 on EBay in UK .This last 10 days or so you have brought some fantastic RC to air THANKS
Yes, this plane is sick. Greetings from Germany. ✈️🙂
WOW guys. I agree. The drone/plain is something else. Many thanks for shareing. Made me smile Big time. Great Job as always Salyors. Xx
That was awesome, I'm going to get one ASAP.

Oh yeah!!! Happy Flying my friend!! I'm so happy to get to share this with everyone 👍⚓😃
I haven't even watched this video yet, but I must have it. See , You guys are the best salespeople in the business.
Lol, Hey we love this hobby and are always looking out for everyone. On one side of the fence, we do our best to share the duds. On the other side, if something is awesome we are more than happy to share it with everyone 👍⚓😃

I may not be the most perceptive person in the world, but I think the RC Saylors REALLY like this one!!! LOL!!!! This is really freaking cool!!!!

Wow, another winner from XK! The takeoff capabilities of the X450 and what it can do in the air are amazing!
Finally your video on X450 is out!!!
I sincerely seek your advice.
i have completely no experience with RC planes or Drones at all.

This is my second VTOL because of you two, and I haven’t even flown my first one!!!! But I am definitely flying this one. I love the “drone mode”.
Okay...so I'm learning that "easy" to fly for you doesn't mean that I won't crash it. I crashed it on the maiden flight. Bought another one. Crashed it. Fixed it. Flew it well. Went out again. Crashed it. They're not forgiving when they crash. So now I've got two of these, both broken awaiting parts.
Totally AWESOME!! Thanks Saylors!! 💟👍😘
YEP..............thats pretty cool , all it needs is GPS for return to home and an FPV camera :D
And full acro tricopter mode....
josh akers and Some more money
Nice, I like the fact that you don't have to take off vertical. My old one blows over in any kind of wind.
I would love one of these. Are the big a powerful enough for a tiny camera? Would be cool to see some stunt footage.
Fantastic and amazing to watch you fly and to review.
I'm waiting for mine to come in can't wait to fly it.
Nate! I just bought one! thanks! I thought I asked that you and Abby are to only show what not to buy? but No here we go again! LOL great Job keep up the great videos. Abby needs to fly more!
Fantastic “ pass the time “ plane/drone 👍👍 just been on banggood and the transmitter has got on the left hand side ‘Stuck Mode’ 🤣, would that be ‘Stick Mode’? i.e. mode 1 or mode 2?

Thank you, 183,000 brilliant! Well done to you both! 👌👌👌👍👍
Just got mine today, of course its raining, cant wait to try it.
Fun video and looks like a fun plane to fly.
Interesting that you said for a drone flyer to get into planes. Our Buddy Rick let me fly his XK X520 while in North Carolina and I was HOOKED! I had 10 drones but now only fly 1 just to video my plane flights.
XK does make some really durable fun planes, I should know, I crashed mine at full speed with FPV into myself and a light pole. Videos are embarrassing but funny.
This one looks even more durable and fun! I may pick one of these up for my Son In Law for Christmas!
Thanks for the review!
Fun plane! XK keeps rocking the RC world for most fun on a budget (them and WL Toys). I have the XK X520, the other one you mentioned that you reviewed, and it still holds up. Having fun seeing you guys doing the mini-unofficial-plane-week!
Oh, and SERIOUSLY, Abby? With JEANS? Don't make us pull your AMA card! :D
That's so cool! It looks so.much fun! What a great flyer!
Not sure which is better the Plane or Nate's reaction. LOL. Even after the file loss it didn't take long for him to get excited. Nice video. and YES I want one now. Nate get Abby one please.
Hi TheRcSaylors, thanks for sharing, love your work/videos. At 5:35 mark, seems something is also being entertained in the sky, (cough cough) the cloud that looks like something trying to look like a cloud. Then the butterfly, which probably was a sign from them. Anyhoo, enjoy yourselves.
Great video! I have one ordered. I hear you have to avoid the 1300 mAh upgrade batteries due to larger size that will not fit without cutting out foam.
I own an XK X520 (the other one y'all refer to), and it's great. But I haven't been really excited about an RC much of late. I am halfway through this video and I know I will get one of these. And soon, before the price goes up. :)
Very smart to pick one up tonight. We just added a second one to our cart 😉👍⚓😃
@@TheRcSaylors I just ordered one. I mean, I went to gmail to check for the receipt and saw your tweet notifications. That thing is awesome!
The X450 is definitely a fun model! I flew a couple batteries today at the park and had a group of little kids running after it. The adults think I am a pro pilot when all I am doing is hitting a few buttons, lol. Thanks for the video review, going to watch and see if I can get any pointers ;)
This is on my Christmas list, great video guys!
Yep, looked at your videos over time, got the xk x520, then the carbon cub s+ both of which are excellent, want to try Quads and spotted this on your channel,... so just ordered one of these. Keep up the informative reviews, they're great !!
Very very Cool!!!⚓️⚓️⚓️Nice to see Nate excited about something. 😂
Abby did say in this video she wished you had two so you could fly together you technically do you have the jjrc version they basically the same plane for the most part I have the X KX450 version like the one in this video with an fpv camera mounted on it love it so much thought about buying a second one didn't know if I should get another xkx version or maybe get the jjrc version was the reason that I was curious which one do you like better
This is so cool! Got it ordered n on its way. I have the other xk but I think this will be so much better.
I can already see that this is way better then version 1.
My 450 lasted one flight. Now both flaps are broke off and one of the motors snapped off. 2 of the crashes were caused by the v-mde sending it into a wonky spin and twice it just dropped out of the sky in winged mode. My 520 is still good to go. It flies on 3S too...
That is what I need! To look like a PRO!!!! Love this video. Awesome to see your perspective on a second day. 😀👍✈
OMG! This is so much better than both e-flite Convergence and mini Convergeance.
That is so cool, looks so well thought out! Performing flawless which is nice to see.
So many plane videos, love it!
We are having a very fun week, glad you are enjoying the vids 👍⚓😃
Wow wow and wow. I guess I will have look into this one too. I may have to stop watching your videos (not going to happen) cause everything I see I want one too.
Great review! I just ordered one. Can you tell me if the transmitter it comes with will work for the xk helichopters? I recently purchased the XK k110. Thxs!

I fly mine in the back yard! I love it!
Awesome little plane/drone/whatever! I just may need to pick one of these up.
Plane person VS Drone person
X450 : I'M ABOUT TO PUT THEM INTO THE PEACE 🥰
Love it! This one looks great. What I like about vtol is you can fly it from your front yard. It doesn't need a long runway to take off and land, just go in drone mode take off the back in same mode to land. Can it take of and land in vertical mode as well? I believe this maybe one of the coolest rc products I've ever seen on your channel.

Using something like a small SQ camera, a 808 #16 camera or a Mobius Mini would yield much better results.
would love to see you guys do a video of the two of them flying the jjrc and the X KX450 version together
Looks like fun, Thanks guys.
Half way watching your video il orderd one, thanks Nate.
You will have so much fun 👍⚓😎
Can you guys suggest an FPV camera that I can put in this thing?
This is now my everyday flyer!, from now on
Are you guys in Cartersville
Can this fly inverted in plane mode and also do rolls? Is there unlimited vertical in plane mode?
If one were to mount a fpv camera on it, where would be the best location?, how would you attach it (glue,tape)?? and what would be a camera you would recommend? After flying this, it would be super cool to be able to watch the flight from the (cock pit so to speak) on your computer laptop or a smart phone. Could you do a video about doing that on a plane say like this or a jet, and then show some flying footage?
As a total RC noob, will this transmitter work with other RC units? Is that a lcd on the bottom of the remote? For a camera?
XK are becoming a serious contender to Horizon Hobby ;)
Hi, I have a question... I understand the rudder is the left stick with throttle...
In 3d mode when you're in airplane is the rudder STILL the left stick???
Reason I asked is I've seen simulators online of guys using their transmitters. And they're using right stick for rolls, turns, dive, and climbs and their left stick is ONLY for throttle!
Was curious about the XK X450s transmitter rudder.... I understand in 6g mode you can use right stick for everything.... Its the 3d acro I'm curious about...
I appreciate and help in this... 😃
What about basic aerobatics? Can it do rolls? Can it do loops ? Lazy eights?
Is there a way to add a gps and incorporate rth settings when you lose radio connection?
Nice vid 👍in plane mode if you go zero throttle what happens ?
I own one of these and I love it!!!
Awesome plane. Im getting one. So cool. Watch you guys all the time.
Looks like a fun airplane/VTOL ... cool!
Crazy fun, very impressive 👍⚓😃
It is great. It is helping me with my plane flying skills and when I lose control I can throw the switch. I like amazing stuff because it helps me have more fun.
yea nate ive done a night flight with this 450 on my channel. amazingly bright lights nice one. .

Took it up to 30 feet & flew a figure 8 banked it back to me. Then leveled it out. Throttled down to 20% and flipped the switch to hover. Same thing death spiral to the ground. This time it was the servo I didn't replace. Ok the two that came with it were bad. I had a spare. I swapped it out. Went out again, and hovered to 20 ft switched to flight mode went out 40 feet and banked back. Switched to hover and poof instant death spiral. I have 2 metal gear replacements on order. If you buy this plane, don't fly, it till you replace the front servos. Or you will be very disappointed.
I have the same problem as Very Wise, my house is looking like a hangar in an air show. However keep up the videos guy, I can always build an extension 😂
Wow it is a reasonable price I think imma go head and order it 👍🏼. Thanks rc saylors
the articulating motor/props are pretty cool! When can we get that same technology on Camera Angle for quads! As pitch increases so does camera angle and vice versa!
Hey, Nate or Abby. What kind of a FPV camera will it carry? A little 5.8g AIO, MAYBE?
Never flown more than a twin rotor indoor helicopter, but I bit the bullet and it is here in front of me, now what size camera will fit and what else do I need to fpv it?, and being absolute newbie what doe's the three position switch top left do as you only talked about the red button. It has a photo button on it does this mean it could have fpv or just a camera for photography.
Maybe it was not the right choice for an absolute beginner, but you inspired me to go for it what can I say.
What do I need to fit a camera in it. Did your's come with LED's already fitted on the underside. It is 0030hrs and I want to fly it now, as it is the first chance I have had to unbox it, so maybe I should wait. I need more detail on this and flight schooling no one near me flies we do not have a flight feild designated club within a 150 miles away.
Yes ours did come with lights attached already. Did yours not have lights? Also, I am positive that I discussed the three position switch in this video my friend, I think a couple times but I know for sure once 😉 I think this is beginner friendly, but I would highly advise waiting for a nice calm evening in a very open space for your first flight. Also for your first flight, just keep it in hover mode and maintain a couple feet off the ground but no higher than 10 feet or so up, till you get used to the controls. Happy Flying! 👍⚓😎
Just Got My XK X450, no flight as of yet been working through manual, charging battery acclimatizing to remote functions. Thinking of mounting bright LED in the camera bay. Any Thought? tips, pointers to operate with transmitter might be a flash at first then a constant have not tried just from what was read on transmitter.
Super Cool, got to get one soon.
I think this will be my next plane, I got loads of MJX drones so I need a nice interesting plane, this vector thrust plane is cool and interesting at a decent price, looks like fun.
Bang Good is using your video on there site. Excellent giving you more exposure
Im assuming auto stabilization means no elevator/rudder? Great model...but if so...an elevator would be beneficial for sure...
it's beautiful thanks for sharing.
Thanks a lot for tuning in 👍⚓😃
Thanks again for another great video!!! Purchased just now!!!
That was one nifty plane. A plane, a quad, an acrobatic flyer definitely one to get.Maybe with all that fancy acrobatic flying you were doing a 🦋🦋Butterfly mating flight.🦋🦋. Then when you were holding the plane, you broke💔💔 the poor Butterflies 🦋🦋 little heart. 😊😊😊. ⚓👍👍💖⚓⚓.
cool looking jet great show
How is this better than the xk520 y'all made me buy? It's pretty great too and can take off and land conventionally. Not a rhetorical question, someone enlighten me. I do like how it takes flight vertically tho.
...thank you .....just ordered 1 😃👍
Wow that's cool,awesome video.
Early squad where you guys at (:
GREAT plane drone combo this is the best they must make a new one tell them three times this size they will be on a winner chicken dinner keep vids going love them all all the best to the family
