Awesome intro to fpv wings. Looks like loads of fun. 136 mph 🤔
awesome video! keep up the great work! 69mph
I started building and flying rc planes 10 years ago and been flying fpv drones for like 4 years. My first advice to anyone who wishes to enter rc plane hobby is to start with a trainer model. Everyone wants to fly a fighter or super efficient wing but for newcomers, they are very hard to see and fly. Getting comfortable with a handbuilt foamboard trainer then switching to a wing is magnitudes cheaper and safer.

Nice to see you in wings. i'm gonna guess 62mph with that combo. I love wings and have to say HD wings with the O3 system is a so amazing. I do want to recommend you step up to a Ritewing Mini drak next. Its without a doubt my favorite of my fleet of 8. So fast and flies like its rails.

Ооо давно уже видосики не вылазили =) Дождался, ещё и про самолётики
It was nice to watch your video, I started with planes myself. I would estimate the speed at 92 mph.

@@IvanEfimovLimon I got really good with those little UMX planes from Horizon. They have great stabilization and are small enough that you can fly them in the park and crash them in the grass without really having to worry. It's a great skill to have too in case you lose video. I still fly analog and just recently went to maiden a plane with a cheap ESC that knocked out the video unless you had it at zero throttle. I put on my goggles and it was pure snow so I took them off and just landed. I did hit a bush(I fly out in the middle of the desert), but it was much better than the alternative.
Those wings be looking nice, 57
I've got an un-flown Zohd Alpha hanging on the wall that I bought on black Friday, in 2022... You've given me the motivation to fly it ... next weekend. Today I'm taking out my first ever newly built (and untuned) x-class because I need a reality check to remind me I'm a shit pilot and shit tuner. Good vid Ivan and I might be interested in your fork for the wing but I should get a FC for it first. Time to guess your top speed (in a separate comment of course) then get my shit together.
88 mph, I'll be into fixed wings next year I bet
I really need to come down and chase you again. Without my GoPro being trash. I know BigNasty is ordering a penguin with his Christmas bonus. I want to hold out for my DJI goggles so I can go digital. He's going analog on his.

12:13 WHO HOHO HO HO HO HO HO it's sooooooo truuuueee man, I am also doing that every time I launch a wing first time. The workaround is to keed your left hand out of the sticks. You just bring it in when you need to adjust the throttle and just stear with a right hand, very easy peasy.
