Great plane for FPV, I put the vtx on the side of the fuse then ran an extension out on the tail and placed my antenna there, it gives good distant between vtx antenna and rx antenna, I have taken this thing 3/4 of a mile out on a spectrum radio. With no fpv and a 2200 3s it gets about 30min flight times, with fpv, pan tilt, and mobius, it gets about 20mins.

It's very easy to build and set up. A micro reciever later I found that I didn't have to widen the space under the wing! But that's part of the hobby. The applied graphics were pealing and wouldn't stick back down so off they came and a paint job later.."key lime" It's now my proud daughters "Tinker Bell". Also I added a 3 blade prop. Lots of thrust now. There were some "spacers" for a permanent down flap? "In case the model flew to fast"?? Not in America mates. But later I'm thinking STOL. For the price I'm thinking to build another- Grey with WWII decals. Musuliny's Rescue. Ha!

The elevator and rudder linkages have excessive flex and friction, but that is easily solved by bending the wire and using grease. Use plywood to cover the fuse servos, then mount gear on top. I used the PowerHD servos, and the elevator one stripped in a bad landing.



Managed to fit an APM2 inside the fuse by cutting a bit. Strong fuselage and wings, motor has more than enough power.



The included wheels were too small to take off from grass, but rolled fine on concrete and dirt after they got started. Flap servos are a must, they make flying and landing in different conditions very easy. The ailerons are a bit small, and the foam hinges broke after flexing them. The landing gear mount is also a bit weak.

Not a bad little fpv platform...you are limited on space for the electronics..all fpv equipment has to be mounted externally....very stable..i havent added flaps because it takes very little throttle and its climbing...it has great lift...i would recommend finding a better way to secure the main wing because i have had issues with the wing separating in the middle and almost resulting in a crash...even though the wing came loose i was still able to fly it safely back to the ground although it had me worried...but over all its a great buy ..and it flies very easily

It is quick to assemble and flies great. Only short coming: Too small to put any reasonable FPV gear in it.
