What I have found out so far!

Aug 09, 2017

I'd like to say that I am very happy with this plane. Minutes to assemble the parts, seemed like days to put the stickers on. Ha! Anyway it looks great now.
The esc needed to be replaced easy to heat up on 3s and 4s.
I replaced it with a hobbywing 60amp opto with external bec. Um been flying it with 4s 2200mah 35c.
Everything is nice and happy, the motor doesn't overheat coz I went down to a 12x8 prop.
It is very fast with this setup.

Wonderful Plane

Mar 12, 2017

Great plane. We became friends with the first start. Flew it today with 3S and with 4S.
Absolutely fantastic. Easy landings,good for torquing, very precise. Much better than the EXTRA 300 I had from a german firm. Buy the Voltigeur and you will never regret it.

Voltigeur

Mar 04, 2017

Das Fahrwerk ist total schwach und verbiegt sich bei der geringsten Belastung. Der Flieger kippt sehr leicht über Quer ab . ich weis nicht ob das nur bei meinem ist, wenn ja dann kann ich nur abraten !!

One flight in I love it

Feb 19, 2017

Only one flight in and I love this plane. I paid $147.00 now available $111.00
Its a must get for any 3D plane enthusiast. A link to my first flight. I painted instead of appling all the stickers.

Needs some changes for 4s, but all in all a decent product.

Feb 13, 2017

Quality is nice, and for 3s you're good right out of the box. I fly it on 4s, and changed the ESC and reduced the prop to a 13x4, pulling 60Amps. I placed a 60A ESC, which is just about enough. Do not use the stock ESC with the stock prop on 4s, that combo will do 70A+

I'm glad I sold my bravado and bought this one. It's a nice little 3D plane, it behaves like it should, even with a lot of wind. Landing gear isn't up to the job, it's not strong enough.

Flimsy control horns need replacing

Feb 11, 2017

Just opened mine this evening and not impressed by the control horns which deflect with the lightest of pressure. Now reading about issues with the ESC I'm starting to think this might be short lived.

Will post back when I've flown it.

Just unboxed and started assembly

Feb 08, 2017

Nicely shaped and stiff for EPO. Servos have long horns and linkage is top grade. Comes with 3 large sheets of stickers. Gonna pass on installing the stickers, will be easier/faster to paint. Magnetic cowl mounts already set up out of the box. Nice aluminum landing gear and soft wheels with pants already installed. I cant wait to this painted and flying

Good kit, horrible motor/esc

Feb 08, 2017

Bought this plane because of the price, even if a kit setup, the price isnt too bad. The motor and esc are junk. Flew fine with 3s, once 4s was used, motor and esc burned up in the first 2 minutes of flight. Buy this plane if want a nice 3s setup, or are willing to change out the esc and motor.
