OMG, I busted a gut when you opened the box and tried to pull out the foam packing and broke off a piece of the foam. I did the exact same thing. LOL. FYI. Mine came with a bad control board; landing gear would not work. Xfly quickly sent me a replace control board. excellent customer service.

Just curious why you would install the Pulsar system when you have the same ability with just your AR8360T Spektrum AS3X/Safe Rx ? Otherwise go with the cheaper AR8020T without AS3X.

Right. I used an rx that I had laying around but wanted to use the provided system for the review since that was what was supplied with the model.

Sir...how to learn to fly and buy it in India.

@Thercgeek

2 жыл бұрын

Well, I don’t know anything about India I’m afraid to say. Are there any dedicated rc fields and/or clubs there that you can get connected with there? That’s usually a great way to get introduced to the hobby and rc flying.

NX 10and R 7008 SB are incapable. What receiver did you use.

@Thercgeek

Жыл бұрын

Yes, that's correct. I'm using an AR8360T in the model.

I have never flown an rc plane but I have the opportunity to buy one just like this for 200.00 should I? Is it easy to learn. I've always wanted to have one but I feel scared to crash it.

@Thercgeek

These gulfstream models fly extremely nice, but are not what you want to start with. It’s something to work up to. If you’re looking to get into RC flying, the best investment to make up front is on a good simulator. From there, get connected with a local club and seek out some flight instruction. That will save you time and money while you are learning and give you a good foundation to grow from.

Great review. Where can I find the set up protractor you use?

Wow Chris, this plane looks like a joy to fly. It's low wing load makes it soar almost like a glider. It's like a twin Viper in steroids. You'd be my 1st pick as my private pilot flying my full scale Xfly J65 on my business trips with your shenanigans looping and rolling with a luxury passenger jet. 🙂 BTW, Chris in Jun 10, 2022, when you shot this video, I can clearly see the runway is Chollas Flyers here in San Diego. Where you at Chollas Flyers here just for this flight, or are you a member? The reason I ask is because I am member at this flying club and have been flying at Chollas since 2000!

@@Thercgeek Very nice. ...(I'm probably preaching to the quire) It's the never-ending talk with our Prez about re-surfacing our "paved roller coaster" runway. It's an old soar issue with this 300' x 40' runway, always landing and taking off with a huge abundance of caution then let it rip. The great thing about Chollas is the virtually unlimited flying area and 400' elevation is more than enough. BTW - I'm going to maiden my new E-flight Viper 70mm there with Justin Coe ( CoeShow619 ) he's kind of our Defacto Mascot at Chollas and fly's (operate) anything that requires a radio controller.

News flash. It's a new day. I started to assemble my brand-new Viper late last evening. The stabilizer, rudder tuck and fish the wires through neatly. Then it was late call it a night and, in the morning, continue with the rat's nest in the fuselage and seal that up. So, first thing I did this morning is go into my garage to the plane on my workbench, carefully turn it over on its stand and the rudder and stab smacked the end of the workbench and cracked the fasteners of the complete tail assembly. Now the little plastic collar (with copper threaded inserts) is sheared off. I have to take some blame, I probably over tightened and it's a rookie mistake. So, I suppose can either glue the entire tail assembly together (old school) or send a support request to HH. Murphy's Bummer!

I would paint the inside of the engine outlet a dark grey to look more scale.

Well, I haven’t flown the freewing, so can’t say there. I can say that the Xfly is quite a bit more scale looking than the freewing and has the scale landing gear as well.

The ease of assembly and breakdown alone makes it a no-brainer in favor of the XFly! They're both large models so the plugs built into the wings and tail make a big difference.

Hi, may i know which flies best, this one or the freezing pj50 or al37? Thanks!

The image you're referencing that is in the video is from their gyro manual. I am using a spektrum AR8360T receiver in the model and what I'm describing while showing that image is what is required to use the spektrum receiver. If you're using a futaba receiver, then you can use the sbus line instead.
