EXHOBBY/Volantex 500mm F4U Corsair RTF Airplane Flight Test Review  @Quadcopter101

This amazing looking plane is a great addition to the warbird series. Big updates includes a brushless motor, 2S battery, and a larger airframe for more stable flight in manual mode. Find it here bit.ly/Corsair-F4U , and even more from EXHOBBY here exhobby.com

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 EXHOBBY/Volantex.
- Brushless motor
- Very efficient flier. Its 2S 7.4V 400mah battery provides about 12 minutes flight time. No-load residual battery voltage for both flights was around 7.4V.
- Weighs only 138 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 and Weak Signal
- 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.
