[@stevep4131]

If you are looking for a small starter EDF jet I can highly recommend the Arrows Hobby Marlin. Its 4S 2200 to 3000mAh, 64mm and includes rudder AND flaps. Beautiful performance, fast and yet great at slow speed with mid flaps. Easy to land on full flaps. Low price.

The hobby shop that I purchase from is a Horizon Vendor and distributor. So they get first pick like you guys do. So if you time it right, there's no waiting weeks or months for a product to come in after it's been released.

[@FlightLogProductions]

Does it feel the same as the 70mm? Would you recommend this Habu 50mm, Habu 70mm or Viper 70mm as a first EDF? I know you’ve flown them all! I’ve watched the video’s! Thanks!

Perfect to keep in the car for spontaneous flights. The whole thing is about 1/2 the cost of a jet friendly 6S battery! I Just preordered one through your link. I hope that Horizon gives you a commission when it is a preorder. Love your videos and I’ve been looking for something to be tempted enough to purchase and support your channel.

[@warmiceUT]

Great video. Btw, the low voltage telemetry for high current demand EDF planes, shall reserve some buffer..else would be too risky. Would suggest not lower than 3.6v

[@andyhelfenstein7425]

Hi Saylors nice job with the videos. I always appreciate Abby's comments as well. I'm looking for my first jet graduating from the Eachine P51 and have Realflight. I like something in the 40-50mm size as I fly smaller areas. It seems like the F15 is quite a bit larger and has half the flight time and maybe not quite as easy to fly? The paint scheme is horrible on the Habu however. Can I just use 2 coat rustoleum paint and make it look like the blue angels lol:)

[@Paradicted]

How did you get it to balance at the recommended CG of 66mm with a 2200mAh?? I had mine pushed back to the receiver and it was still CRAZY nose heavy even all the way back.

[@rctrucks2094]

Same I flew mine and the nose was dropped even at half throttle

Any chance to use this with a DXS? The AR631 seems to need some forward programming DXS is not capable of. I managed to bind wit SAFE but no switch is reacting. Worked out of the box with a Aero Scout

[@214347brandon]

I had this same issue… and as a result destroyed mine on the maiden. Im honestly not even the biggest fan of safe mode but I think it’s a good idea for the first flight. I just got a dx6e and have safe going now. New fuselage is coming in the mail hoping for the best 😂

I'm pissed with spektrum. Didn't manage to get safe mode. So also nearly destroy mine. Selling all on eBay now. Flying dji avata now. But will diy a plane soon but then on inav and elrs and not that proprietary shit ;)

Hi! I am new to rc flying and i want to know if i should choose a edf jet oe a propeller plane?

[@libra6829]

100% a prop plane edf jets have a slight lag from the fan spooling up and actually pushing air out the back which makes bailing out a little harder. Most edf jets aside from the habu tend to stall at lower speeds as well making them less forgiving. Depending on your budget go with an Hobbyzone Aerscout 1.1 or a Carbon Cub s 1.3.

How would you compare this to the Eflite F-15

[@TheRcSaylors]

This is a bit more “floaty” and well rounded flight performance. The F15 on paper is similar, but needs more “forward movement” and less aerobatic flying. I wouldn’t even think about trying to fly inverted as much as I did on this as the F15. I’d say the F15 wins on looks and this wins on flight performance. 👍😎⚓️
