RCSchim | The ultimate FPV plane guide: ArWing pro, FPV900 and Mars1200 @Rcschim | Uploaded 1 year ago | Updated 4 hours ago
I fly FPV since 2008 and it started with a plane back then (MPX Twinstar).
Soon I moved to flying quads - because they are easier to fly, less effected by wind, smaller...
But each year I have my "phase" of wanting to fly with PLANEs. Usually this phase don't last long, since I fall back to the convenience of copters :)
Now with really good options (DJI video transmission, Crossfire controll link and INAV flight controller) this was my longest phase of mostly flying planes!
I've learned a lot with the planes, feel really confident with INAV now. Autolaunch installed on all of the planes - super helpfull!
Stability (control surface action against gusts?) could be better - I guess I need to tune the PIDs there better.
But ACRO mode is so nice! The plane automatically flies straight, without the need for trimming the servos ;)
Some stats:
this video contains 81GB of footage from July 12 till Oct 28
I flew:
ARWing pro: 13 flights, 4h 18mins
FPV900: 23 flights, 4h 15mins
Mars 1200: 10 flights, 3h 28mins
Each of these planes has some advantages.
ArWing pro: review: youtu.be/Z4JeN7U_KDw
+ efficient (kind of), can carry a gopro (needs lot of nose weight, so without a gopro you need DEADWEIGHT)
- it's a bit unstable and wobbly still.
- Launches are not always easy (but with INAV and autolaunch it's easy!)
FPV900: easy, small wing now with INAV and GPS!
youtu.be/MYZ2keszRgI
+ it's cheap so the risk is lower - more confidence!
+ works nice with 3000mah LiIon - or 1800mah Lipos for stunts!
- a bit unstable in high speeds
- noisy motor / Prop combo
MARS 1200: review: youtu.be/v02FCEQfAwM
my biggest, most grown up FPV longrange plane!
+ A LOT of space, good speed and efficiency
+ super video range (also thanks to the TrueRC singularity 12cm antennas )
- Stalls are ugly, landings not always easy
