This VERY good looking plane is a great update to the 400mm warbird series. Big updates includes a brushless motor, 2S battery, and a larger airframe for more stable flight in manual mode. Find it here and try coupon BGd973a4 to get it for $112 https://ban.ggood.vip/152hQ And here are many more Banggood RC coupons for you all bit.ly/Coupons-BG
Pros
- Very good looking aircraft in paint scheme and details
- 500mm wingspan. This larger plane provides more stable flight in manual mode as compared to the 400mm wingspan warbirds from Eachine/Volantex.
- Brushless motor
- Very efficient flier. Its 2S 7.4V 400mah battery provides over 13 minutes of flight time (In the video, I got over 21 minutes slope soaring with turkey turkey vultures). No-load residual battery voltage for both flights was around 7.5V.
- Weighs only 118 grams with battery installed. Does NOT require registration or RID in most countries.
- Ready to fly plane with included transmitter.
- True four channel airplane with throttle, elevator, rudder, and aileron control.
- Constructed of flexible and crash resistant EPP foam.
- Comes with two 3 bladed propellers. Quick disconnect propeller saver automatically disconnects the propeller in a crash to prevent propeller or motor damage. Propeller can be quickly reattached after the crash to continue flying.
- Three selectable flight modes. Beginner mode includes full 6 axis stabilization (3 axis gyro and 3 axis accelerometer). Also includes angle restrictions that prevent the aircraft rolling or pitching over. Intermediate "Midd" mode also includes 6 axis stabilization, but turns off pitch angle restrictions to allow aerobatic loop stunts. Expert mode turns off all stabilization for fully aerobatic manual flying.
- Controller also includes a stunt button that allows the airplane to automatically conduct loops and aileron rolls.
- Auto Takeoff feature enables the aircraft to automatically climb to a safe altitude, and then circle until the pilot is comfortable and ready to take control of the plane with the pitch/roll stick.
- One key return feature will automatically fly the plane in the opposite direction that it was pointed at takeoff.
- Telemetry warnings of Low Battery (2 beeps plane, 1 beep Tx) and Weak Signal (4 beeps)
- NEW Find my aircraft beeper (Hold throttle down trim for 3 seconds)
- Can be flown with multi-protocol transmitters using V761 protocol.
Cons
- Although it is noticeably more stable than its 400mm predecessors, it can still be a challenge to fly in manual mode on breezy days.
- It's a bit tail heavy, even when the battery is placed as far forward as it can go. You might need to add a little weight on the nose to balance the CG.
