Flight Review - Durafly Tundra V3 1300mm (PNF) HobbyKing 2024-04-26 | Tundra V3 has landed! Get yours here: bit.ly/3UjpKIGAfter the incredible success of the Tundra V1 and V2, Durafly has decided to produce yet another version with even more improvements to bring the Tundra series bang up to date. The V3 is now a pure 4S set-up so it has power in abundance to make your flying even more fun than it was before (if that is at all possible!). Other changes and improvements include daylight bright LEDs (so bright they are suitable for true dawn-to-dusk flying), a reinforced nylon prop that is more efficient, and better balanced, a return to the classic EPO foam wheels which are lighter, and stronger, pre-installed pushrods, hex-head bolts and screws throughout. The V3 is available in the classic Tundra green and white scheme, or a red and silver color scheme Durafly has called the "Inspire". The reason is that the original Tundra was "Inspired" by the "Highlander" full-size SuperStol experimental airplane.The Tundra V3 also includes the revolutionary Aerostar RVS (reverse function system) G2 ESC, this ESC offers instantaneous reversing, so there is now no need to stop the prop before reversing. This makes it perfect when using the Tundra V3 on the water as a floatplane, but it is also great fun in the air, and really good for short landings, just ensure the prop is on nice and tight!!The tough EPO foam construction is beautifully finished, and being "Plug N Fly" the Tundra V3 is supplied with the powerful, and reliable Aerostar 3636-900KV brushless motor, the Aerostar RVS G2 40A ESC, and 6 high quality 9g servos. Retained from the V2 are the upgraded landing gear and fixings, vortex generators, improved wing connectors, and battery tray.So if you are looking for flying with no limits, then you’ve found it with the Tundra V3. Whether it’s flying from rough bush fields, water, snow, or sand, FPV flying, aerobatics, glider towing, candy dropping, or just good old fashioned super STOL slow flying, then the Tundra V3 takes it all on with ease. Its lightweight yet rugged construction, powerful brushless set-up, and perfectly harmonized design give you an instant feeling of confidence on the sticks, as quickly as it puts a smile on your face.Simply put, the Tundra V3 is even more fun to fly than previous versions, and you will be flying even sooner as there is now even less assembly on the V3. With either the included floats, tow mounting point, and FPV mount, or with the optional skis and candy dropper, the choice is yours regarding how you put your Tundra V3 to work.Take on the very best mother nature can throw at you and still come up smiling, with the Tundra V3, there are no limits!Features:• V3 version has even more improvements, including pure 4S set-up, Aerostar RVS G2 ESC, more efficient prop, day-bright LEDs, pre-installed pushrods, hex bolts and screws throughout• Available in the classic green/white, or the red/silver "Inspire" color scheme• The day-bright LEDs allow for flying from dawn to dusk• Pre-installed 4S powertrain offers even better vertical performance• Bush-style landing gear with huge EPO foam wheels, and improved metal cross brace mount• 'Barndoor' style flaps and vortex generators for true STOL performance and super slow flight• FPV canopy mount, floats, and water rudder includedSpecs:Type: Durafly Tundra V3 "Inspire" Sports Model w/FlapsWingspan: 1300mm (51")Length: 920mm (36.25")Wing Area: 26dm2Flying Weight: 1150gNumber of Channels: 6 (throttle, ailerons, elevator, rudder, flaps, reverse RVS)Motor: 3636-900Kv brushless outrunnerESC: Aerostar RVS G2 40amp Brushless ESC w/reverseServos: 6 x 9gProp: Durafly nylon-reinforced 11.5"x5”Color: Red/Silver "Inspire"Included:1 x Durafly Tundra V3 "Inspire" sports model airframe in red/silver1 x Aerostar 3636-900KV brushless motor1 x Aerostar RVS G2 40amp ESC6 x 9g servo1 x Durafly 11.5"x5" propeller1 x Floats set w/water rudder1 x FPV canopy/mount1 x Hardware pack inc hex bolts & screws1 x Hex screwdriver1 x Quick Start GuideRequired:6CH or more transmitter and receiver4S 14.8VV 1300~2200mAh LiPo battery (30C min)Suitable LiPo chargerOptional:Candy dropperSki'sFPV Gear
Flight Review - XFLY F-22 Raptor Twin 40mm EDF - 4S LiHV and hand launch flight HobbyKing 2024-04-12 | Stuarts back to give you a first look and Flight Review of the new XFLY Twin 40mm F-22 we've just received at Hobbyking.com. We demonstrate how easily it hand launches with the landing gear removed and how much better the performance is with a 4S Tunrigy Bolt LiHV pack, and we experiment with differential thrust control!Get your F-22 from Hobbyking here: hobbyking.com/nl_nl/xfly-pnf-f-22-raptor-twin-40mm-edf-jet-epo-702mm.htmlXFLY is continuing to expand its incredible range of EDF models with this fantastic-looking Lockheed Martin F-22 Raptor. It is a small, scale twin-EDF model of the supersonic all-weather stealth fighter that was developed for the United States Air Force. The US Air Force requirement was for an advanced tactical fighter to replace the F-15 Eagle and the F-16 Fighting Falcon that had the capability of competing with the Su-27 Flanker, and MiG-29 Fulcrum.XFLY has used the same care and attention, quality components, and materials that they use on their larger and more sophisticated models to produce the F-22 Raptor, it is manufactured to the same high standards that you have come to expect from XFLY. The F-22 is made from a lightweight, tough EPO foam, and is supplied complete with twin 40mm 12-blade EDF fan units, twin 1413-5000KV motors, twin 20A ESC, and 5 x 9g digital servos.The 4S-compatible power system delivers an abundance of power for excellent thrust, loads of speed, and an incredible turbine-like sound. The strong landing gear supplied is fixed with a steerable nose gear, but due to the very stable flight characteristics, abundance of power, and molded hand grips, the F-22 is also quite happy being hand-launched with the landing gear removed. This takes it to the next level with even more speed and excellent vertical performance. The model is beautifully finished in a grey color scheme of the US Air Force, and assembly is quick and easy with no gluing required.The XFLY F-22 Raptor is perfect for intermediate and experienced pilots who are looking for a small, lightweight model that is manoeuvrable, aerobatic, and fun to fly in small areas. As per the full-size, the model has all-flying horizontal stabilisers which give it amazing manoeuvrability. These include large loops, rolls, Cuban 8s, and high alpha manoeuvres such as Cobra's, Kulbit's, and many many more. It looks great in the air and on the ground and has excellent low-speed handling qualities, high alpha landings are a dream. So if you are looking for a small, fantastic-looking scale EDF jet, then the XFLY F-22 Raptor is for you.Features:• Supplied Plug-N-Fly with twin brushless motors, ESCs, and 40mm fan units• Digital servos on all flying surfaces• Quick and easy to assemble with no gluing• Perfect for intermediate and experienced pilots alike• Great looking scale model of the Lockheed Martin F-22 Raptor• Low wing loading and all-flying stabilizers for high-alpha capability• Constructed of durable, lightweight EPO foamSpecs:Type: XFLY (PNF) F-22 Raptor Twin 40mm EDF JetWingspan: 702mmLength: 955mmApprox Flying Weight: 950g (depending on battery used)Fan Units: 2 x 40mm 12-BladeMotor: 2 x 1413-5000KV brushless ESC: 2 x 20A brushless w/BEC systemServos: 5 x 9g digitalNo of Channels: 4 (throttle/ailerons/elevator/nose-gear steering)Recommended Battery: 14.8V (4S) 1300~2600mAh LiPo (not supplied)Material: EPO foamColor: US Air Force greyIncluded:1 x XFLY (PNF) F-22 Raptor Twin 40mm EDF Jet airframe in US Air Force Grey2 x 40mm 12-blade fan units2 x 1413-5000KV brushless motor2 x 20A brushless ESC w/BEC5 x 9g digital servoRequired:1 x 4ch or more transmitter and receiver1 x 14.8V (4S) 1300~2600mAh LiPo battery1 x Suitable LiPo chargerGet your F-22 from Hobbyking here: hobbyking.com/nl_nl/xfly-pnf-f-22-raptor-twin-40mm-edf-jet-epo-702mm.html
First Look - H-King Marine Aquaholic V3 - RTR Brushless 4S Racing Boat HobbyKing 2024-03-22 | Join us as we take a 1st look at the brand new H-King Marine Aquaholic V3. For more details, check out below:GET YOURS HERE: bitly.ws/3gyuDThe original Aquaholic was a real show stopper with its eye-watering performance and great looks, then came the V2 version with an even more powerful brushless system and redesigned superstructure. Now we have the V3 that sports a new bright orange color scheme, an offset rudder for better turning performance, a relocated power system for better weight distribution, and a clear plastic recovery fin that bolts to the top of the rudder to provide steering control if the boat accidentally gets flipped over.Retained from the V2 version is the water-cooled 2815 outrunner brushless motor coupled with a high-end water-cooled 60amp ESC that gives you blistering speeds in excess of 60km/hr (37mph) across your favorite lake, pond, or waterway. The Aquaholic V3 has also retained the well-proven deep-vee hull, which gives it incredible speed and stability in a straight line and enables it to dig in and turn on a dime.This Ready-to-Run (RTR) version is complete with a HobbyKing GT2E AFHDS 2A 2.4ghz 2 channel radio system with a waterproof receiver and a powerful 37g steering servo. The position of the brushless motor on the V3 has been moved rearwards to alter the center of gravity to further improve the handling. This means the drive from the motor to the highly efficient 3-blade metal propeller via the strong 4mm flexible direct drive system is shorter, making it stronger and even more efficient. The aluminum alloy shaft support at the propeller end of the flexible drive system holds the shaft parallel to the hull for optimum thrust and also provides support for the offset rudder.Features:• V3 sports a new eye-catching Orange color scheme, and offset rudder for improved turning performance• Powerful brushless water-cooled motor system with 60amp water-cooled ESC• Blisteringly fast speeds in excess of 60km/hr (37mph)• Supplied with Hobbyking GT2E 2.4GHz digital proportional radio system and powerful rudder servo• Deep Vee hull for excellent stability and maneuvering• Highly efficient surface piercing metal 3-blade propeller• Strong 4mm flexible drive shaft with rear aluminum alloy support• Includes a clear recovery fin for bolting to the rudder to provide steering control if capsizedSpecs:Type: H-King (RTR) Marine Aquaholic V3 Brushless Deep Vee Racing BoatLength: 730mm (28.7in)Beam: 180mm (7.09in)Hull/Superstructure Material: Strong durable ABSSpeed: 60+km/hrMotor: Water-cooled 2815 brushless outrunnerSpeed Controller: 60amp brushless w/BECDrive: 4mm direct drive flexible shaftRadio System: Hobbyking GT2E AFHDS 2A 2.4ghz 2 Channel Radio System w/ waterproof ReceiverRudder Servo: 37g high-powerColor: OrangeRequired:2 x 7.4V (2S) 4000mAh 30C or greater LiPo battery packs1 x Suitable LiPo battery charger4 x "AA" batteries for the transmitter

Flight Review - Durafly Auto-G2 V2 Gyrocopter w/Auto-Start 821mm (PNF) HobbyKing 2023-10-10 | When Durafly released the original Auto-G it raised the bar by being the first Plug-N-Fly autogyro on the market, that bar has been raised even higher with the Auto-G2 V2. Keeping to the Durafly tradition, it is quick and simple to assemble, flies extremely well, and looks amazing in flight. The V2 upgrades include the addition of a durable 2mm fiber-reinforced nylon head plate, fiber-reinforced pushrods, a fully encased main mast, wider, stronger landing gear with large lightweight bush-style foam wheels, and a cowled-in motor, plus smaller internal electronics giving more space for the flight battery.Get the Durafly (PNF) Auto-G2 V2 Gyrocopter w/Auto-Start 821mm HERE: bit.ly/3QbKAc8Autogyros are very unique aircraft utilizing an unpowered free-spinning main rotor to develop lift, and a powered propeller to provide thrust. This makes them quite different from traditional fixed-wing aircraft. The Auto-G2 V2 offers you this very interesting design in an easy and simple-to-use Plug-N-Fly model.The Auto-G2 V2 also features an auto-start rotor run-up system. This system uses a small electric brushed motor which is engaged via a separate channel to spin up the rotors prior to take-off, this ensures the head is spinning at the optimal speed for take-off. Landings are also a dream, you can land the Auto-G2 V2 very similar to a conventional fixed-wing model. But with practice, very short almost vertical landings are achievable with next to no ground run. The upgraded wider, and stronger landing gear greatly improves the ground handling, and the large bush-style wheels allows for flying from even the most demanding surfaces and terrain.For those of you looking for a new flying experience, the Auto-G2 V2 is just the ticket. This model will be especially appealing to those fixed-wing pilots who enjoy coordinating turns with the rudder or to those who fly both helicopters and fixed-wing aircraft, as this model falls somewhere between the two. With its unique flight characteristics, the Auto-G2 V2 is by far one of the most interesting models you'll ever have flown. In addition to its super slow flight and auto-rotation capability, it can even perform simple aerobatics such as gentle stall turns.The Auto-G2 V2 fuselage and tail components are constructed from highly durable EPO foam, while the tail boom is made from strong, lightweight carbon fiber. Assembly is super quick with its pre-installed electronics, bolt-on horizontal stab, and pre-fitted servo linkages. The only part of this model that requires gluing is the vertical stabilizer.The Auto-G2 V2 will bring you a flying experience like no other and will leave you smiling from ear to ear every time the wheels lift into the air.Features:• Plug-N-Fly format with power systems, and servos pre-installed• V2 has wider, stronger landing gear with large bush-style wheels for better ground handling and rough terrain capability• Auto-start rotor system for shorter take-off runs• Strong, impact-resistant rotor blades, and durable 2mm fiber-reinforced rotor-head• Tough EPO components plus strong carbon fiber tail-boom• New V2 color scheme• Offers a unique flying experienceSpecs:Type: Durafly Auto-G2 V2 Gyrocopter w/Auto-StartRotor Diameter: 821mmLength: 795mmHeight: 392mmWeight: 600gMotor: 4018 800KV brushless outrunnerESC: 20A brushlessPropeller: 3-blade 10x8Servo: 4 x 9gAuto-Start: Pre-installed with motor & electronic on/off switchIncludes:Durafly Auto-G2 V2 Gyrocopter airframe4018 800KV brushless motor20A brushless ESCAuto-start system w/electronic switch4 x 9g servosHardware packPrinted Quick Start GuideRequires:5~6CH transmitter and receiver1300mAh 3S (11.1V) LiPo battery 20C or higherDon't forget to like, share, subscribe, and hit the notification bell for regular HobbyKing videosHappy flying, have fun and let's keep growing the community:• Sign-up for Email Updates: bit.ly/2YahBd5• Facebook - facebook.com/HobbyKing• Twitter - twitter.com/HobbyKingLive• Instagram - instagram.com/hobbyking• Branded Merch - bit.ly/3qYtU9n#durafly #rcplane #hobbyking #flightreview #productoverview #rcplanerview #rcaircraft #AutoG #aerobatics #pnf #flightoverview #rcplane #rcairplane #rcaeroplane #G2V2 #autogyro #gyrocopter #gyroplane

We added some new improvements and finished with a striking new scheme. This version of the Durafly Vampire is finished in the scheme of the Royal Canadian Air Force (RCAF) colors.Although the initial version of the Vampire was a very stable flier Durafly has tightened up the tail booms and elevator with carbon fiber support to give even better control. With the change to the RCAF colors, the silver scheme has been “dulled” to give a more realistic color and the plane also has a smoother finish with cleaner panel lines. Under the hatch, the Vampire has been updated with an AeroStar 60A ESC with a built-in BEC (rather than the separate ESC and BEC) and an upgraded 2836 3300KV brushless motor to provide more performance and efficiency. Fast, stable, reliable, easy to fly, and with a presence in spades, the Durafly D.H 100 Vampire "Canadain Edition" will stand out at any airfield and is ideal for aspiring jet jockeys.

If you want to get into the excitement of FPV flying then the Trojans cockpit is specifically designed for FPV flight. Just add your own Pan and tilt camera with a head tracker, VTX and antennas. FPV is a great way to get that full flying experience being fully immersed in the T-28's cockpit.

Enjoy and let us know your thoughts in the comments!This great-looking little racer can trace its lineage back to the very popular Rare Bear which we sold a few years ago. This was a very fast parkflyer based on the Reno Racers that was amazing fun to fly, was very tough, and became a firm favorite extremely quickly.Get the Durafly (PNF) Goblin Racer 820mm EPO Yellow/Black/Silver: bit.ly/3BR5J3SThe Goblin carries on all these traits coupled with great looks and attention to detail. It comes with a choice of 2 eye-catching color schemes either yellow/black/silver or pink/blue/black and factory-applied decals. It has scale-looking ribbed control surfaces with dummy trim tabs on ailerons and elevator, racy-looking teardrop blisters on the cowling, and a streamlined painted canopy. A huge spinner that flows into the cowling profile finishes that streamlined racy look. The Goblin looks good on the ground but even better in the air with its tapered wing and rounded wingtips and tail feathers.Power is provided by a powerful pre-installed 3536-1400KV brushless motor turning a 7 x 6 2-blade prop, this is coupled to a high-quality 45 amp Aerostar ESC. 3 x 9g servos with pushrods and control horns are also pre-installed which makes for a very quick assembly time. The wide-bodied fuselage not only looks good but allows plenty of room and access for a 1000-1800mAh 4S battery. This combination of a lightweight EPO airframe, a high-power brushless motor, and a simple aileron and elevator setup puts the Goblin amongst the most exhilarating park flyers on the market today.So why not get a bunch of your flying mates to also purchase a Goblin, set up some pylons, and do a bit of inexpensive pylon racing, it's great fun. There is no need to modify the Goblin and large individual race numbers are supplied to tell who is who. It is fast and great fun to fly as it comes out of the box which will keep the racing more evenly matched for more exciting finishes. To make things even more exciting why not design your own FPV platform and have great fun FPV racing with the Goblin.Features:• Quick assembly, can be ready to fly in 30 minutes• Wide-bodied fuselage for easy battery access• 2 high visibility color schemes available• Large individual race numbers included• Powerful 3536-1400KV brushless motor and 45A ESC pre-installed• 3 x 9g servos with pushrods pre-installed• One-piece model for easy transportationDon't forget to like, share, subscribe, and hit the notification bell for regular HobbyKing videosEnjoy, stay safe, and let's keep growing the community:• Sign-up for Email Updates: bit.ly/2YahBd5• Facebook - facebook.com/HobbyKing• Twitter - twitter.com/HobbyKingLive• Instagram - instagram.com/hobbyking• Branded Merch - bit.ly/3qYtU9n#rcplane #rcairplane #rcaeroplane #flightreview #productoverview #rcaircraft #hobbyking #plugandfly #pnf #hobbyking #durafly #goblin #flightdemo

HobbyKing 2022-12-06 | In this Tips Bench Tuesday, Stuart goes over tips and tricks to start a brand-new RC gas engine by hand.Guide to Starting an RC Engine blog article: bit.ly/3UAKDNHTurnigy gas engines have evolved over the last few years, and have now culminated in the TP (Turnigy Power) series. Get the Turnigy TP-Series Gas Engines w/CD Ignition and Walbro Carb: bit.ly/3uOZ0EZThe TP engines have a composite insulator block that houses the reed valve and mounts between the Walbro carb and the engine. This insulator block helps stop heat transference from the engine to the carb for improved running. The supplied TP electronic ignition module adjusts the timing automatically to give peak performance throughout the entire rev range of the engine.All TP engines are test run and the Walbro carburetor is tuned before it leaves the factory. However, due to different altitudes and weather conditions, slight adjustments will be necessary when you run your engine for the first time.Featured in this video: Mini Tachometer for Ignition Use (30000 RPM max) - bit.ly/3BcL1KlDon't forget to like, share, subscribe, and hit the notification bell for regular HobbyKing videosEnjoy, stay safe, and let's keep growing the community:• Sign-up for Email Updates: bit.ly/2YahBd5• Facebook - facebook.com/HobbyKing• Twitter - twitter.com/HobbyKingLive• Instagram - instagram.com/hobbyking• Branded Merch - bit.ly/3qYtU9n#rctutorial #rcaircraft #hobbyking #radiocontrolled #remotecontrol #rcfun #rcmotor #hobbyking #turnigymotor #turnigygasengines #gasglow #rcpower

HK Shorts: Durafly (PNF) Me-163 V2 White 10 WWII Interceptor Fighter EPO 950mm HobbyKing 2022-11-21 | Stuart's here for the latest flight demo of the updated Durafly (PNF) Me-163B V2 "White 10" WWII Interceptor Fighter EPO 950mm. Available now, including spares!The Durafly Me-163B has been designed for pilots with some experience, it benefits from an incredible flight performance, and great stability throughout its speed range, and like the real thing, it is incredibly fast. Aerobatics including huge loops, vertical rolls out of sight, and very fast low passes are easily achievable, yet slow it down and it's very stable, with no hint of a stall. Using the recommended 2200mah 30-65C 4S LiPo battery and the supplied 6x4 prop, you can expect flight times well beyond 5 minutes and an abundance of power. If you love speed and very fast models, then this one is for you, the Komet Me-163 is ballistic, with speeds approaching 100mph.Get the Durafly (PNF) Me-163B V2 "White 10" WWII Interceptor Fighter EPO 950mm: bit.ly/3TPONBASpare Parts: bit.ly/3SvJwy0Optional Rocket motor set-up: youtu.be/YJZFAfSgJX0bit.ly/3t2rARnThis latest V2 version of the Durafly Me-163 retains some of the unique features of the original version, with the addition of some new ones. The V2 features a gravity release scale 'dolly' style undercarriage making the take-off procedure less complicated whilst reducing weight. It simply falls away once you pull up into the climb and the weight comes off the model. A magnetic gear release system is available as an optional extra if you require it, this is really only necessary if you fly from a bumpy strip. The V2 Me-163 is a 4S set-up as standard, this has been achieved by a redesign of the center internal fuselage and wing spar system, it has increased the internal capacity and has also further reduced the AUW of the model. However, the versatility of the power system remains, you can still fly the Komet on a 3S battery if you wish with no change needed to the power system. Even on a 3S set-up, the Komet is no slouch, it is still very fast and a lot of fun. The V2 color scheme is based on the Me-163B "White 10" as flown by Lt. Hans-Ludwig Löscher of 1./JG 400, Brandis, in Germany.Being "Plug N Fly", the motor, ESC, and servos are pre-installed and ready to hook up to your choice of receiver. The molded EPO construction has a highly detailed finish on the outside, and extensive carbon reinforcement internally. Other features are a color-matched hard plastic belly skid, good access to all electronics via the battery/canopy hatch, and excellent cooling throughout.For those of you looking for the ultimate scale experience, the optional rocket system is a simple drop-in affair, see the manual for details. At the flick of a switch, this will give the Komet a thrilling boost, realistic white smoke pouring out of the back, and an exhilarating vertical climb-out.Features:• Plug N Fly format with pre-installed motor, ESC, and servos• Gravity release dolly style undercarriage• Ready for the drop-in optional rocket motor system• Tough EPO construction with extensive carbon reinforcement• Stable and high-performance aerodynamic design• Authentic color scheme and pre-applied decals• Larger internal capacity to accept a 4S set-up as standardDon't forget to like, share, subscribe, and hit the notification bell for regular HobbyKing videosEnjoy, stay safe, and let's keep growing the community:• Sign-up for Email Updates: bit.ly/2YahBd5• Facebook - facebook.com/HobbyKing• Twitter - twitter.com/HobbyKingLive• Instagram - instagram.com/hobbyking• Branded Merch - bit.ly/3qYtU9n#durafly #rcplane #hobbyking #flightreview #productoverview #rcplanerview #rcaircraft #Me163 #aerobatics #pnf #flightoverview #rcplane #rcairplane #rcaeroplane

It was the RAF's last, and ultimate biplane fighter airplane to be manufactured, but it was also the first to feature an enclosed cockpit.Get the Durafly (PNF) Gloster Gladiator Mk1 Biplane Fighter EPO 1100mm (43"): bit.ly/3N4ppnHSpare Parts: bit.ly/3tO87nUThe Gloster Gladiator is an unusual and rarely modeled subject. The Durafly version of this iconic biplane is a replica of the Shuttleworth Collections Gloster Gladiator Mk1 "K9785", believed to be the only airworthy example flying in the world today. "K9785" depicts the markings of No. 73 Squadron that operated Gloster Gladiators at RAF Mildenhall in England from 1937 to 1938.The model is manufactured in strong EPO foam, to the usual high standards you have come to expect from this range of RC airplanes. As with most other Durafly models, it comes "Plug N Fly". This means it is supplied with an easy-to-assemble airframe, powerful pre-installed 3719-770KV brushless motor, Aerostar 40A ESC, and 4 pre-installed 9g digital servos. A vinyl decal sheet is included, these will need to be applied during the building process, this gives you the choice of using the silver finish as a base for creating your own color scheme. Once the model is assembled, all you require is your choice of 4ch or more receiver and a 2200mAh 4S (14.8V) LiPo battery.The attention to detail is superb from the blistered cowl, scale exhausts, and scale streamlined landing gear with large diameter scale wheels. The ribbed wings, tail, and stringered fuselage depict a fabric-covered airframe, and blistered machine gun housings make this a model you will be proud to own. Scale flying wires are also supplied, the model can be flown with or without them but they do add that realistic scale touch to the Gladiator.The Gladiator has very benign handling characteristics with an almost non-existent stall, and at half power, it flies very scale-like. At full power it becomes a very agile and aerobatic sports model, big loops, axial rolls, and even knife-edge can be performed, it is great fun to fly. So it is not only for the scale buffs, it will also appeal to the sports pilots as well.The 1930s was the golden age of aviation, capture these halcyon days with the beautiful Durafly Gloster Gladiator.Features:• An easy-to-assemble, beautiful scale model of the ultimate classic biplane• "Plug N Fly", comes complete with a powerful pre-installed brushless motor, ESC, and digital servos• Molded-in ultra-smooth, super tough, EPO foam that is finished in silver paint• Superb attention to detail including ribbed wings and stringered fuselage• Includes large diameter scale wheels, molded dummy radial engine, scale rigging wires, and other scale detailing parts• Depicts the color scheme of the only airworthy example flying in the world todayDon't forget to like, share, subscribe, and hit the notification bell for regular HobbyKing videosEnjoy, stay safe, and let's keep growing the community:• Sign-up for Email Updates: bit.ly/2YahBd5• Facebook - facebook.com/HobbyKing• Twitter - twitter.com/HobbyKingLive• Instagram - instagram.com/hobbyking• Branded Merch - bit.ly/3qYtU9n#durafly #glostergladiator #hobbyking #modtechmonday #modtech #rctutorial #rcaircraft #rcpaint #plugandfly #pnf #flightoverview #warbird #rcplane #rcairplane #rcaeroplane

HK Shorts: H-King ARF Savage Bobber Lightweight STOL Airplane (1000mm) HobbyKing 2022-09-11 | Stuart goes over the new H-King ARF Savage Bobber Lightweight STOL Airplane (1000mm) in our latest product video. Available now!The H-King Savage Bobber is an easy-to-assemble and fly, small semi-scale model of this popular STOL lightweight aircraft. It is supplied as an ARF (Almost Ready to Fly), it requires assembling, and your own choice of motor, ESC, servos, receiver, and LiPo battery adding.Get the H-King ARF Savage Bobber Lightweight STOL Airplane (1000mm): bit.ly/3e3BkGzThe full-size Savage Bobber was devised by the Zlin Aviation Company. The Bobber as in the motorcycle world means that it is a stripped-down, customized version of an original. The Savage Bobber is a stripped-down, customized version of its older brother the Savage Classic. It is lighter, more maneuverable, has a slightly narrower fuselage, and the absence of covering to the rear of the fuselage greatly improves crosswind handling.The H-King version of the Savage Bobber has been designed in the same spirit, but unlike previous versions of this model that have been on the market, this one has been rigorously test flown during development. Our pilots have spent many hours flying and tweaking the setup, including changing the flap hinges to hinge at the bottom to allow for a full 90° deflection. Its slow flight characteristics have subsequently been improved, control is retained down to quite low speeds, and steep landing approaches are achievable. The big tundra-style wheels and robust landing gear allow the Savage Bobber to fly from most types of terrain. The Savage Bobber is a fun plane that is easy and amazing to fly and one of the lightest in the 1000mm wingspan category (approx 650g depending on set-up).The model is hand-crafted from balsa and has a crystal clear plastic windshield, carbon wing joiner, carbon wing struts, and factory-applied covering film with colorful decals. Also supplied is a vacuum-formed plastic cowl, a comprehensive hardware pack, and as mentioned before, it is supplied with scale wheels with large, oversized tundra-type tires.Although small in size it is large in stature, it will definitely stand out from the crowd at the local flying field. The large, open-sided cockpit lends itself nicely for some added scale detail and possibly a full-length scale pilot! So why not add the H-King Savage Bobber to your model hangar today and have a lot of fun, flying in parks, and those smaller places where you normally are unable to fly with the bigger models.Features:• Rigorously test flown during development to ensure an excellent, easy-flying airplane• Small and lightweight, perfect for parks and small flying areas• Bottom Hinged Flaps to allow for full 90° Movement• Factory-applied covering and colorful decals• Scale wheels with oversized tundra-type tires• Carbon wing joiner and wing struts• Vacuum formed cowl and comprehensive hardware packDon't forget to like, share, subscribe, and hit the notification bell for regular HobbyKing videosEnjoy, stay safe, and let's keep growing the community:• Sign-up for Email Updates: bit.ly/2YahBd5• Facebook - facebook.com/HobbyKing• Twitter - twitter.com/HobbyKingLive• Instagram - instagram.com/hobbyking• Branded Merch - bit.ly/3qYtU9n#hking #savagebobber #hobbyking #flightreview #productoverview #rcplanerview #rcaircraft #hobbyking #arf #pnf #flightoverview #rcplane #rcairplane #rcaeroplane
Flight Demo - Volantex 759-1 ASW28 V2 HobbyKing 2022-09-06 | Stuart is back with a flight demo but this time on the well-known Volantex 759-1 ASW28 V2 (PNF) Electric Sailplane EPO/Plastic 2540mm. So sit back and enjoy a fun, comfy RC flight demo in our favorite airfield in the Netherlands!The full-scale ASW 28 is a Standard Class glider with a fifteen-meter span built of modern fiber-reinforced composites. The manufacturer of the ASW-28 is Alexander Schleicher GmbH & Co. The "W" indicates this is designed by the influential and prolific German designer Gerhard Waibel. Serial production started in 2000.Get the Volantex 759-1 ASW28 V2 (PNF) Electric Sailplane EPO/Plastic 2540mm: bit.ly/3ctGewdAll Volantex Planes and Parts: bit.ly/3e616tTAs with all Standard Class sailplanes, the ASW-28 does not have flaps or other lift-enhancing devices. It has tall winglets, retractable landing gear, and a water ballast system. The structure is a complex composite of carbon, aramid, and polyethylene fiber-reinforced plastic. This permits a light structure with the strength to carry large amounts of water ballast, thus permitting the widest possible range of wing loadings for weak and strong soaring weather.The Volantex ASW 28 is a sport-scale model that does incorporate flaps, unlike its full-scale counterpart. It comes plug and fly so you just need to complete some final assembly, install your battery, receiver, and fly. The airframe is a mix of EPO foam for the wings and tail, with a blow-molded plastic fuselage. This gives a slick finish that is also extremely durable. Great for those less-than-perfect slope sites. A recent addition to the ASW 28 is a more powerful 4018-1050kV brushless outrunner motor that rockets the ASW 28 to altitude, then when you throttle down, the propeller folds back for extended soaring. Accessing the battery is easy through the canopy with four small snap locks that keeps the canopy secure.Version 2 comes with lots of extra features. The wings come with two spars in each wing to give extra strength during those tight turns and power dives and the servos have also been upgraded to a more powerful type. Installing the wings is now easier with a plastic latch for securing the wings. Inside there is now a bigger plywood tray to make it easier to carry FPV cameras, VTx's, or other electronics. Landings are now a lot easier with the inclusion of landing gear. No more scraping the fuselage.Features:• Plug and Fly - Just install your own battery, transmitter, and receiver• Ultra-durable blow-molded plastic fuselage• EPO foam molded wings and tail• All servos, including flaps come pre-installed• Easy removal canopy/battery hatch with pilot figure• Upgraded 4018-1050kv brushless motor with a folding propeller installedDon't forget to like, share, subscribe, and hit the notification bell for regular HobbyKing videosEnjoy, stay safe, and let's keep growing the community:• Sign-up for Email Updates: bit.ly/2YahBd5• Facebook - facebook.com/HobbyKing• Twitter - twitter.com/HobbyKingLive• Instagram - instagram.com/hobbyking• Branded Merch - bit.ly/3qYtU9n#rcplane #rcairplane #rcaeroplane #hking #flightreview #productoverview #rcplanerview #rcaircraft #hobbyking #plugandfly #pnf #hobbyking #asw28 #flightdemo

Stay tuned for the next parts of this seriesThe Durafly Gloster Gladiator Painting and Weathering Part 1 Blog Article: bit.ly/3yxZpfdThe Durafly Gloster Gladiator Painting and Weathering Part 2 Blog Article: bit.ly/3VlAczsThe Gloster Gladiator was a British-built biplane fighter, it was used by the Royal Air Force and Fleet Air Arm during the late 1930s. It was the RAF's last, and ultimate biplane fighter airplane to be manufactured, but it was also the first to feature an enclosed cockpit.Get the Durafly (PNF) Gloster Gladiator Mk1 Biplane Fighter EPO 1100mm (43"): bit.ly/3N4ppnHSpare Parts: bit.ly/3tO87nUThe Gloster Gladiator is an unusual and rarely modeled subject. The Durafly version of this iconic biplane is a replica of the Shuttleworth Collections Gloster Gladiator Mk1 "K9785", believed to be the only airworthy example flying in the world today. "K9785" depicts the markings of No. 73 Squadron that operated Gloster Gladiators at RAF Mildenhall in England from 1937 to 1938.The model is manufactured in strong EPO foam, to the usual high standards you have come to expect from this range of RC airplanes. As with most other Durafly models, it comes "Plug N Fly". This means it is supplied with an easy-to-assemble airframe, powerful pre-installed 3719-770KV brushless motor, Aerostar 40A ESC, and 4 pre-installed 9g digital servos. A vinyl decal sheet is included, these will need to be applied during the building process, this gives you the choice of using the silver finish as a base for creating your own color scheme. Once the model is assembled, all you require is your choice of 4ch or more receiver and a 2200mAh 4S (14.8V) LiPo battery.The attention to detail is superb from the blistered cowl, scale exhausts, and scale streamlined landing gear with large diameter scale wheels. The ribbed wings, tail, and stringered fuselage depict a fabric-covered airframe, and blistered machine gun housings make this a model you will be proud to own. Scale flying wires are also supplied, the model can be flown with or without them but they do add that realistic scale touch to the Gladiator.The Gladiator has very benign handling characteristics with an almost non-existent stall, and at half power, it flies very scale-like. At full power it becomes a very agile and aerobatic sports model, big loops, axial rolls, and even knife-edge can be performed, it is great fun to fly. So it is not only for the scale buffs, it will also appeal to the sports pilots as well.The 1930s was the golden age of aviation, capture these halcyon days with the beautiful Durafly Gloster Gladiator.Features:• An easy-to-assemble, beautiful scale model of the ultimate classic biplane• "Plug N Fly", comes complete with a powerful pre-installed brushless motor, ESC, and digital servos• Molded-in ultra-smooth, super tough, EPO foam that is finished in silver paint• Superb attention to detail including ribbed wings and stringered fuselage• Includes large diameter scale wheels, molded dummy radial engine, scale rigging wires, and other scale detailing parts• Depicts the color scheme of the only airworthy example flying in the world todayFeatured in this video:Painting Perfect Paint Lines on Foam Planes using Tape Without Peeling off the Original Paint - youtube.com/watch?v=v-x5mRK5FAMDon't forget to like, share, subscribe, and hit the notification bell for regular HobbyKing videosEnjoy, stay safe, and let's keep growing the community:• Sign-up for Email Updates: bit.ly/2YahBd5• Facebook - facebook.com/HobbyKing• Twitter - twitter.com/HobbyKingLive• Instagram - instagram.com/hobbyking• Branded Merch - bit.ly/3qYtU9n#durafly #glostergladiator #hobbyking #modtechmonday #modtech #rctutorial #rcaircraft #rcpaint #plugandfly #pnf #flightoverview #warbird #rcplane #rcairplane #rcaeroplane
H-King (PNF) F-16 Fighting Falcon and F-18 Super Hornet 50mm 12 Blade EDF (4S) EPO - Flight Review HobbyKing 2022-07-05 | Stuart's back to go over the new H-King F-16 Fighting Falcon and F-18 Hornet 50mm 12 Blade EDF (4S) EPO with 6 Axis ORX Flight Stabilizer in the latest flight overview. Available now!Intro: 00:00Product Overview: 00:27Flight Demo: 04:47Wrap-up: 14:49Outro/Outtakes: 15:08These H-King versions of the very impressive F-18 and F-16 are manufactured in EPO foam and is beautifully finished in an authentic USAF color scheme with the decals pre-applied at the factory. The H-King EDFs have outstanding flight characteristics in their own right, it flies like it is on rails, but the pre-installed ORX 6-axis gyro takes this to another level. Pilots of all levels of experience will benefit from using the intermediate gyro setting, this really does improve stability and smoothes out the flight, especially in windy conditions. For beginners and low hours pilots, the flight stabilization system makes it even easier to fly. It utilizes a 32bit MCU for ultra-fast control response and has 3 settings, gyro off, gyro on, and training mode. In the training mode, the gyro gives full stability and also limits the amount of roll and pitch that can be used. In gyro-on mode, this gives slightly less aided stability and does not limit the roll or pitch that can be used, perfect for smooth, jet-style aerobatics. In gyro off mode, it is exactly that, no gyro at all.Get the H-King (PNF) F-16 Fighting Falcon 50mm 12 Blade EDF (4S) EPO: bit.ly/3AqTueKGet the H-King (PNF) F-18 Super Hornet 50mm 12 Blade EDF (4S) EPO: bit.ly/3AqTueKSpare Parts: bit.ly/3AqTueKUnlike similar EDFs on the market that use a 3S battery, the H-King F-18 and F-16 have been designed around a 4S set-up. This makes the H-King EDFs stand out from the crowd, it gives it the extra power to do those huge looping and vertical maneuvers that fast jets are renowned for, it also looks fantastic when doing fast, low passes over the take-off strip. The flight characteristics of the EDFs do not stop with fast-flying only, the slow-speed handling is exceptional as well, with slow, high-alpha passes being a breeze to perform. Features:• Authentic scale detail and color scheme• Plug-N-Fly• Outstanding flight characteristics at high and low speeds• Supplied with an ORX flight stabilizer with 3 different flight modes (Beginner, Intermediate, and Expert)• Pre-installed high power 4S set-up with 50mm 12 blade EDF fan unit• Two-piece plug-in wing design with magnets and carbon joiner• Large battery compartment for easy accessFeatured in this video:Turnigy Nano-Tech Plus 1000mAh 6S 70C Lipo Pack w/XT60: bit.ly/3acSJLr.Turnigy Bolt 1000mAh 4S 15.2V 65~130C High Voltage Lipoly Pack (LiHV): bit.ly/3uoPTdgDon't forget to like, share, subscribe, and hit the notification bell for regular HobbyKing videosEnjoy, stay safe, and let's keep growing the community:• Sign-up for Email Updates: bit.ly/2YahBd5• Facebook - facebook.com/HobbyKing• Twitter - twitter.com/HobbyKingLive• Instagram - instagram.com/hobbyking• Branded Merch - bit.ly/3qYtU9n#hking #f18 #f16 #flightreview #productoverview #rcplanerview #rcaircraft #hobbyking #plugandfly #pnf #flightoverview #edf #rcplane #rcairplane #rcaeroplane
