Probably because there's a VTOL upgrade kit coming out for this aircraft soon, and the wings need to be stiff and strong to withstand the stresses of the VTOL motors lifting the aircraft vertically. Either that or Haohan just had lots of carbon going spare? lol

Best launch I've seen so far. The ability to have gimbal lock to a fixed position will be useful for some parts of flight, like when doing tuning; but can really see the potential that having a stabilized gimbal offers. Very nice flight, and amazing coastal scenery. Since the Pocket radio doesn't have any sliders to use as a pan control, perhaps putting the rudder/gimbal on a switch would allow alternating between rudder/pan, or mix so pans in the direction of a turn. Experimenting with different ways to use the gimbal should be fun. :)

I think for the price, the Atom Dolphin flies just as good, maybe better. It flies at lower amps also. Of course if you’re a gimbal person, that’s what the Firefly is suited for. I was thinking about getting one, but the landings for the Firefly or hit and miss and the potential for front nose breakage. My Dolphin flies great and is much cheaper and I can get replacement parts. Thanks for the flight.

Great blind unboxing. Really like the attention to details the manufacture has integrated into the design. The light grey high density foam is great alternative to dark/white that thens to be only options for other models. The the main volume of the pod is directly under the C/G makes battery options, etc very easy to get a perfect balance.

Definitely unique, and maybe high quality, but it feels like someone said "I love FPV, but I hate pushers and twin motors so much that I'm going to make something truly despicable to look at...oh, and lets make sure those wings smack the ground at a weird angle if you don't get your landing perfect every single time. We don't believe in landing gear or stability once it touches the ground at all". I'm pretty sure this thing doesn't survive one somewhat minor crash, given all it's appendages and thin connections coming off the more-massive body.
