Excellent Aircraft

Jan 20, 2023

3rd one for me. Have V1 n now 2 of V2. Will repaint this one to USAF scheme. Fit and finish are perfect. Will add under wing tanks like I have for the other two. FMS 1400mm F-4 tanks are a perfect size/fit.

Tolles Modell

Jan 19, 2023

Dies ist schon mein zweites Modell. Es ist schnell gebaut und fliegt hervorragend. Die Starts immer gegen den Wind bei idealerweise leicht gekräuseltem Wasser. Ich habe die beiden Motoren ans Seitenruder gekoppelt, dann ist das Wasserruder obsolet. Über einen Schalter ist die Funktion im Flug abschaltbar. Nie über einen stehenden Motor kreisen. Über einen weiteren Schalter schalte ich die Motoren auf Rückwärtsgang. So ist auch bei ungünstigen Windverhältnissen ein sauberes Manövrieren einfach. Wenn man aufs Seitenruder eine Flightcam mit Weitwinkel montiert gelingen tolle Aufnahmen. Aber nicht vergessen, den Schwerpunkt mittels Akku anzupassen, sonst brauchst du auch wie ich ein zweites Modell. Volle Empfehlung.

Good value for money

Jan 02, 2023

The wing fixings, the battery support plate and some aesthetic parts such as the fake landing gear wheels and the nose would need to be re-glued. I also reinforced the hinges of the control surfaces (rudder, elevator, ailerons and flaps) with tape. Remains however overall a model with a good quality - price ratio that flies very well and has an excellent presence in flight. Not really suitable for beginners.On the fourth flight, due to a pilot error I had a major crash. I repaired it completely and re-glued it with UHU POR glue, it was almost like new again and flies beautifully. I just had some difficulty replacing the tail rudder servo

Just What I Wanted

Nov 14, 2022

Arrived in excellent condition and without too much delay, given that it originated in Hong Kong. Lots of details and a joy to build.

Flew like achamp

Oct 30, 2022

Flew this plane for the first time up at West Stoner lake. Had a great first flight with no issues and no adjustments needed. I enjoyed the flight, the plane looked sharp in the air and had no problem with take off or landing.

Easy Peasy

Sep 28, 2022

Albatross went together very easily with screws and a dab of foam glue,used my RadioLinlk AT10 TX AND Rx.Used the recommended throws on all control surfaces but a lot of expo in radio for smooth flying,did not add in low rates,tons of power to pull up quickly to avoid trees at end of pond.Gets up on plane and breaks surface water very well and lands smoothly on water,have not tried grass yet.Definetley recommend for float pilot fans. I also love the size of plane,big but can still put in my van with wings on.

Great flyer

Sep 21, 2022

This plane is a definite winner, for the price and the quality, you can’t beat it. This Version two with the Coast Guard scheme is super visible, and gets a lot of attention. Water handling is top notch , nice and slow on approach, and long flight times. Don’t get rid of this one you guys. You did a great job on the build quality and price point. keep up the good work.

Decent Flyer

Make sure to apply extra glue to the motor mounts to the wing or you might lose a motor & engine mount & prop.
