The HobbyKing 1875 mm B-17 (V2) Olive is a very nice , refined model

Jan 01, 2020

I got two of the 1875mm B-17 (V2) Olive. They arrived with no shipping damage. Packaged two to a carton. Very scale looking and seems to be well refined in form and parts fitting together. I had planned on taking my time with details and assembly during the winter months to prepare for the flying season. I am so happy to have the HobbyKing B-17 Olive. I am looking forward to flying it a lot and expect it to perform very good. I hope to always have this model ready to go to the field to fly as often as conditions permit , and that HobbyKing keeps me supplied with what I need when I need , to maintain, repair, or replace it so that I can continue to enjoy flying the B-17 for years to come. I love it. Thank you.

This is yet another great plane from hobbyking, I have several and am always impressed by the detailed quality and value for money of these models.
They go together so easily and you are in the air in no time.
I will certainly be buying more and encourage anyone who has ever thought of buying a model plane to consider these.

great scale plane

Jul 28, 2017

i love the looks of this thing, it's also very well put together. i put a 6pin plug on the wires going to the tail so i just have to plug in 1 plug and screw in 2 screws to put the whole thing together.
the sound is amazing with those 4 motors, allthough i find it a little bit lacking in power, and seriously lacking aileron authority. you need to fly this plane with rudder!
also due to the big size and low weight it doesn't seem to like wind alot, i leave it at home when there's more than 25km/h winds. long flight times with a zippy 5000mah 3s. a bit expensive though, i waited for a sale to buy it.

Very nice plane, Flies very well, I am using a Zippy compact 3s 5000 batt. and 1.5 oz. of weight in nose to balance CG.(with that battery) Looks really good in the air, and lands very nice with flaps. so far I like this bird.. I would get another one. Thanks to tiredIron on RC groups, I bought this.

I bought this one to replace the 1600mm B17 that crashed due to RX loss. Looks really bigger that the 1600mm. Quick delivery from the European warehouse without damage. Nice finish overall. Be aware that not all four decals sets are available: there're two sets for the olive B17 and the two others for the silver one.
Assembly is OK but: motor cowls are a pain in the ***, it took an hour to fit them without blocking the motors; Props look really cheap, blades are not in the same rotation plane; although the fuselage is huge, don't expect to access the inside and I had a hard time finding the right spots for the two ESS sound transducers; CG is documented /-40mm from wing LE but even with 2 batteries in the far end of the nose there's no way to get to that value so I still wonder because the 1600mm B17 has its CG 110mm from LE and a CG calculator gave me 130mm. I guess the maiden flight will give the answer and will eventually determine the value for money...
