Eachine Razor - FPV

[@Johan-ex5yj]

Nice relaxing flight, in a beautiful location. 👌 Come to think of it; any hobby or sport that gets you out of the house on a lovely day like that, is a good one. 😀

[@AndrewNewton]

Yes, a perfect day

[@billybob2584]

What a beauty day!! Awesome fly sight

[@missiletm]

Another great demo. Thanks Andrew

[@archivist17]

Superb! Very satisfying flight, I'm sure.

[@KnowThings]

What a day. Man where are you? Love your coast!

[@Electro4flyRC]

Very stable plane!!

[@chrisginn5073]

Great plane next investment. Just got the drift going.

[@macsair]

Great footage of the coast. !!

[@mikbacitube]

Lovely ! what a nice plane

[@everythingrc5652]

Yes

[@peterhancox5268]

Stabilisation and RTH both worked and so did Autolaunch, can’t be INAV then?

[@AndreyYeltsov]

Just bought this glider "for my little son" LOL

[@jamisonhinton5837]

Do you have dvr or was that just perfect video reception?

[@marc_frank]

200mW, clear los and not much distance

[@AndrewNewton]

As Marc said, recorded by Aomway Commander goggles

[@EnglishTurbines]

Perfect day and a perfect setup Andrew...The only thing missing is a Ratel and some OSD....lol....This model deserves it don't you think..?....It could be your Island Hopper....😳😳😳🤔🤔🤔

[@AndrewNewton]

So nice it deserves to be a pure sloper

[@EnglishTurbines]

@@AndrewNewton Yes, I can see why you might want that too... Dump the backpack then...lol.

[@patbradley71]

Brilliant Andrew . You have a great place to fly. I will give the old mustang a chuck off the cliff at Pi this summer. I will take the drift too Cant wait to get out on the slope and crash Ha !! Still learning ..

[@AndrewNewton]

Love NE wind, this site is about 15min walk from my house

[@patbradley71]

@@AndrewNewton You are a lucky man my friend ! I plan to give it a really good go over the break down at Pi. There are many places that would work ok I think . Just got to chase the wind direction. ( Hey that should be a T shirt ) BTW does that have proper hinges or foam. I see this is a pretty good price on banggood at the moment. Im tempted... Pat.

[@droneschillan1738]

Nice flight and nice glider Andrew, congratulations!. Which is better, Liion 2S or Lipo 2S batteries?

[@AndrewNewton]

Both have their uses. LiPo if you want to thrash it.

[@homritsly1141]

Hi, friend. Is it fpv version of plane? Where i can read manual about razor's ESC controller? The propeller of my plane didn't fold when engine is off.

[@AndrewNewton]

Watch my review video

[@mattdrat3087]

Looks like a very nice plane! Do you think the wings could be utilised to make a decent DLG? They seem to have somewhat of the same shape?

[@AndrewNewton]

Maybe with some extra reinforcing on the throwing tip

[@mattdrat3087]

@@AndrewNewton I'll see when it gets here!

[@sUASNews]

Oh, looks very tempting, I wonder if you can flash Ardupilot onto it

[@AndrewNewton]

Not flashable

[@icarusix8750]

that interaction with the passer by was adorable😂

[@AndrewNewton]

He asked some good questions, and didn't stay too long.

[@icarusix8750]

@@AndrewNewton yeah, I meant it in a good way :)

[@jamesceastep8874]

Andrew: I noticed you mention the Eachine F4U and P51D Mustang in your description. Have you tried installing any FPV system in those planes? I have both planes, and have tried to mount a small AIO cam in the P51D, but have had problems getting the CG right. Is a bit sluggish and flakey, probably due to too tail heavy with my extra battery in the back. Would be fun at my small walking park flying site, though. - Jim

[@AndrewNewton]

I dont have them Jim, they were links Banggood asked me to include for the Black Friday sales.

[@jamesceastep8874]

@@AndrewNewton I know these planes are smaller, and more toy grade than you usually work with, but I think you could, & would offer considerable insight and suggestions if you did review them and suggest changes as you do in your reviews so well. Do you plan to get this series in your shop soon for review? Many people who are interested in the hobby, but hesitant to commit to federal authorization, need your guidance in the

[@seba2038]

Andrew! Is the GPs included in FPV version or no? As on your link is written : Flight Controller: Eachine Safe-FC with GPS (not included, Click Here). But I do not need flight controller with gps, as it is 45$ more, just gps would be fine.

[@AndrewNewton]

No GPS with the FPV version. The product page lists it all

[@makewithmegma]

Lovely👌👍🔥

[@julianhumphrey4843]

very good, is the flight controller a rebranded ko-pilot

[@richardjohnson2331]

If you look at the pictures it looks like an uncased Kopilot. The features are same. The camera also looks like a rebranded VC400. Very tempting plane.

[@AndrewNewton]

Yes, the whole package looks like it has the hand of ZOHD on it

[@flyingark173]

Awesome video! About how much wind do you figure you had?

[@AndrewNewton]

Just over 5 kn

[@bushmangrader7389]

Now i couldn’t wait for mine mate Been practicing with mini trojan sofar. But the razor would be perfect for wind around pilbara Ps. I hate them cocky

[@AndrewNewton]

Ha yes they are LOUD!

[@lasersbee]

Do you have to set the RTH point or is it automatically updated to where you are when powering up ?

[@AndrewNewton]

Automatic when it acquires more than 5 sats

[@lasersbee]

@@AndrewNewton Thanks Andrew...

[@Hakinank]

Looks very similar to the ZOHD drift except its a puller (ZOHD was pusher)

[@peterzingler6221]

It's the same plane basicly. Even the same tail

[@Bellairvideo]

Just beautiful! Can't wait for my RTF....and your ESC braking. I wonder what you will get for Christmas?

[@AndrewNewton]

Ha, no more planes

[@missiletm]

@@AndrewNewton have ya ever taken a tally on how many you have?

[@bleeksbentbits3150]

Any chance of an onboard DVR shoot out please Sir Andrew??? Looking for one for a Walrus & Foxeer Toothless2... ;)

[@AndrewNewton]

I have reviewed one in the past

[@northernfpv9562]

Looks like it flies great, but I wish this were a pusher. There's still too much nose in the camera view.

[@plainsplanes9246]

Can anyone tell me on the eachine razor fpv glider how to hook up a standard spectrum 2.4 gigahertz receiver this is my very first flight board airplane. and I can find absolutely no information out there short of a complete wiring diagram to put all virgin parts together which this is not

[@rwehuman]

Tried auto launch today. So. Frikken. Cool.

[@AndrewNewton]

It is a buzz

[@darrynf66]

Can anyone please help me with what controller (TX) I need to you this? Which protocol does it use? Thank you in advance!

[@AndrewNewton]

I'm using FrSKY RX6R on ACCST protocol with Taranis QX7. Only the RTF version would come with receiver and transmitter.

[@darrynf66]

@@AndrewNewton Thanks Andrew for the quick reply!

[@tcz7742]

Now that I see the electronics and the camera my guess is it's actually made by ZOHD

[@marc_frank]

better than all the fat fpv wings still a bit chubby compared to the dlg i just put a motor into

[@The_Pub_]

Get some Bloody Aeroguard mate!!!! Helps kill Corona as well,,, Apparently.

[@AndrewNewton]

I had the Aeroguard in my bag!

[@KenKneknaneek]

Nice little aircraft thanks for the great demo as usual. One thing I noticed that I have never seen before. Your video was blurred most of the time which has never happened before. It improved a wee bit when the camera was not moving. The on board video was also blurry. Had you changed the cameras or was there a problem during the upload to youtube. I thought maybe my eyes had gone crazy but double checked with many other of your videos and all was ok with them. lol This is meant to be constructive criticism as most people would not mention it. Happy Flying

[@AndrewNewton]

My hatcam lens had a fingerprint on it unfortunately. For some reason I uploaded this one at 1080 instead of 4k as well.

[@missiletm]

The range on that little VC400 is pretty impressive at 200mw. I’m hoping to find a Razor under the tree this year on Christmas morning. 🤞

[@AndrewNewton]

That would be a nice gift
