Would you recommend it for a beginner? Got some rc plane experience. I want to fly it in FPV with Walksnail and gps. You recommend I practice flying regularly on another wing or just go straight to this one with FPV?
@tinkerzlab7 күн бұрын
I don't recommend Wings as beginner planes as they're very CG sensitive. This is a very nice flying Wing though so if you already have experience flying RC planes I do recommend it.

@@americanolounge6572 I was out flying mine today. The best way to bind to these BNF and RTF planes is a TX that has a 4in1 Module. Some of these transmitters have an option for a built-in 4in1 module or have a module bay to add a 4in1 module or other protocol module.
