Go Discover FPV Wing Review - RCTESTFLIGHT -

[@NOLAMarathon2010]

Dairy production is down in your area because something unknown seems to be spooking the cows. At the local grocery, the price of milk products has increased by 25%.

[@mike_oe]

OMG for a second I thought you were attempting to fly under the cow :o Nice video, as always!!!

[@fuba44]

Nice review and some awesome FPV flying! .. Now back to the solar cell project ;-)

[@billbovee1705]

lol - your freaking out that last bull/cow..

[@pagani8]

Another excellent review. Your reviews are by far my favorite of all the rc reviews out there

[@MohitDewan]

Nicholas Lee Mine too.

[@aerofpv2109]

Man I could swear you're inside this plane .. you're flying it so well.

[@ventquads3671]

Flying a wing like it's a mini quad! Nice job going through the trees!

[@steamguy101]

This wing has very stable, anti-stall character due to the wing fences IMO; it's an old trick and an easy solution to fix the problem. I've got a Skywalker Falcon coming and will be installing fences to see if I can tame it for sloping, will post on RC Groups.

[@7demo7review]

I have all the components for a longer rang fpv plane. Considering this, fx-69, mini talon, volantex - anything you would like to suggest - I'm torn. Ap is not my main focus with the rig just some longer flights over longer distances

[@RobBarnett]

The Penguin might be a good choice. Good wingspan, very roomy inside, and the canopy is already set up to mount FPV gear.

[@barakbirch5983]

Your using the i10 transmitter. Are you also using the fatshark with head tracking for the FPV? If so, how did you program the transmitters trainer mode for the head tracking? I have the same transmitter with the fatshark. Can't get the transmitter to program correctly.

[@arongatt]

loved those low tree passes and specially that sprinkler shower lol .... awesome!

[@WheelDweller]

Nice video: but- -Don't scare the livestock if you can help it; it's bad for drone goodwill -I've been told some kind of polish can fix that reflexion problem -Always, always, always balance and inspect your prop, first You've inspired me to buy this setup; thank you!

[@Servicehans]

Maybe add a small polarizing filter to get rid of some of the reflections?

[@jamesstockbauer1245]

You sound like a real pilot! Great plane what is encouraging is that this design could be scaled up with high denisity foam

[@leblan2823]

Awesome video. I have this plane now. What cable did u use for turnigy cam? The one I have hits the pan tilt housing. Any help would be appreciated.

[@basstrom88]

6:09: "Oops, I forgot that i'm not flying a racing quad this time..." Nice work with the proximity flying with such a big wing :)

[@Hitngan]

Best reviews on You Tube from this guy.

[@Lidmotor]

Between the cow legs. Between the cow legs. Go between the cow legs! I was hoping. Great videos. Really enjoy these. Thanks.

[@353flyer]

hi the transmitter is TGY i -10 right? how's it any lock out so far, am thinking to pair it with my headtracker through buddy as hitec no longer supports headtracking

[@newventure4639]

I'd love it if you let me know what video camera was used to shoot video of the flights. It seems that you got very good shots, in focus, of the wing flying past etc etc. Cheers.

[@recommit]

Great review. Love the close proximity tree flights. That plane looks like it comes in pretty fast for landing. I have the FX-61 Phantom flying wing, also very docile & great stall characteristics, but landing speed is much slower. The only thing I notice is with visual flight it can become hard to discern orientation at a distance, so I don't fly it as high as my standard wing/tail aircraft when non FPV.

[@Sinkey101]

Nice video mate. I also use the TGY-i10 receiver and transmitter, what sort of range are you getting while using the standard antenna?

[@DaveMerc]

Looks good and even better without the bubble. It might help to move the gimbal forward more or cut away the rim that obstructs the side view.

[@MGL83]

Nice flying, especially the low passes. I just ordered this model. I can't help but think that those winglets are placed wrong - they in the way of airflow on the way to prop but maybe should be at wing tips to decrease the turbulence. Does it feel like something is wrong the aerodynamics?

[@hvFlateric]

I agree with pretty much all your observations regarding this wing. I was very surprised by it stal characteristics also. But what really was a bigger surprise is the speed this thing can move along at. I mean it can really get going. I also had my prop break and take out the very cheap motor mount, twisting up the motor wires. Mine was caused by the little tiny hatch coming off during a launch and getting fed into the prop, causing it to break, become unbalanced and shatter motor mount. I 3d printed a nice stronger one to replace it. I also replaced the folding prop with a mystique electric glider prop, it's larger, centers perfectly on the provided motor and best of all has a aluminium hub. It is a larger prop but operates very well on this wing. My watt meter shows the provided esc handles this setup also. I did find the gimbal a bit flimsy again cheap plastic. I have since replaced my go discover with a rvjet from range video. This is the original frame that the go discover was copied from. Much higher quality components, and they give you wing extensions for slower heavier load fpv flights. Much more expensive airframe however. Love your vids, great flying, keep em coming and thanks for your efforts.

[@hvFlateric]

hvFlateric Oh ya, one thing, if your going to fly without the front bubble be sure to take extra time to fastener your hatches down so they don't come loose into your prop.

[@bungo7211]

Is it possible to create some kind of coat or fabric to connect to where the lens is, so u can keep it aerodynamic but still fly without the bubble

[@FPVREVIEWS]

ice review, satisfies a lot of curiosities. your solar project is very important. look forward to seeing more of it soon.

[@mongdex]

Alittle tip on the landing; since it has a folding prop which feathers (folds) when the engine is cut, on approach use 10% throttle or lower to get the prop creating some drag.

[@atmm89]

love your footage and you are game to fly under them trees, well done and thank you for sharing with us

[@rctv-uk3126]

Hi Daniel good to see you still uploading. Have you tried a polarising filter to cut the reflections? Malc RCTVUK

[@EnisudR]

You've got some crazy thumbs, man!

[@TrondKlock]

I got a Phantom wing running sunnysky 700kv, getting 31min on a old 2750mah 4cell. just got new 4500mah but not had the chance to test yet.

[@simonwallace699]

Great video. I thought you were going to hit one of those cows at one point. What a beautiful little town you live in!

[@CuthbertNibbles]

Step 1: Thermal FPV. Step 2: High intensity LEDs, Air Horn. Step 3: Climb, then stealthily glide towards a cow. Step 4: Activate gear installed in Step 2. You think there's no such thing as cow tipping?

[@noname-wo9yy]

why not do that to people as well

[@SocksWithSandals]

Step 5: Drain and remove the blood then surgically remove the left cheek and genitalia.

[@marcusmckay8120]

Hi if you where to replace the folding prop assembly what would you replace it with ?

[@FpvNutz]

If you get the clear dome it will fix most of your reflection problems. . My motor mount and pnf servos went on the 2nd flight..

[@theroskyyyy]

turnigy cam footage looks good broo

[@My2centsRC]

Make a video about how to balance the prop or was it something else?

[@TheJoSef1n]

Can you please write or suggest similar setup you used in your video?

[@everythingzone]

Hello, I need some help from a pro! I am thinking about buying the Hubsan Spyhawk H301S RTF. It has an advertised range of 1km (many people seem to get well above this, even up to 1,5km). It comes pre-built with FPV and a 1080p camera. Flight time should be about 20-30 minutes. It also has GPS, RTH, OSD and stabelize mode. Is this a good buy? Also, are these features good enough for fun and keep the fun up with room for experimenting etc.?

[@cptfantastic]

Very nice vid! The slow flying fpv footage proves the abilities of this airframe very well! It makes me wanne have one :-) Regards, Tinus

[@JustFPV-net]

perphaps you should give the FX-61 a try ... same thing but no bubble.

[@blackmennewstyle]

Very nice review :) Love the low passes under the trees! Hope to see more of the solar FPV plane next time ;) Happy weekend

[@viperblck1]

which is a good value for money 2.4ghz radio recommended for go discover?

[@Mar1wan1]

My motor mount broke on 1st fligth n didnt fix it tikk than my tell me how u fixed urs?

[@rctestflight]

Mar1wan1 Had to get a new fuselage

[@Mar1wan1]

1st at last u once replied to me ..thabks..I love u vids today I was telling some friends about ur channel n talent

[@jamielee25]

+rctestflight Did you have any build issue? I heard that this thing had horrible fit, with things not lining up and many thing crooked and uneven.

[@DarkShad03]

+Mar1wan1 My motor mount broke after my third flight. There are a few 3D printable motor mounts and even one available on eBay (UK). It will require you to perform some foam survey, but is worth spending 3 pounds on a 3D printable than a whole fuselage.

[@boris1384]

Im flying for like 5-6 months with a parkflyer/trainer (4 channel) i already can fly safely and land where i want to land on runways so im not landing on random places . Would you recommend the Bixler 3 or the Go Discover as my next rc plane? ( i know i make alot of grammar mistakes im not a native english speaker)

[@GodsCorruptible]

+Boris Bobo bix3 then the Go discover in my opinion. Dont run before you can walk :) The Bix3 is a true floater and flying into a headwind it will basically stay in position with a little throttle control, like its hovering. The flaps also work really well so landing speeds are very very slow. I have video's on my channel of the Bix3 kitted out with fpv gear and an autopilot. if you buy pnf, make sure you upgrade the motor/esc if adding fpv gear, the standard equipment is not enough for the extra weight.

[@boris1384]

+Mark FPV-Flight Thank you for your advise ! :) I already bought the bix 3 :) Your twin motor Bix3 is just awesome :)!

[@GodsCorruptible]

Boris Bobo You're welcome, and thank you :)

[@giovanniiitcaboverde1157]

Hi rctestflight! Can you share with me on what electronic parts needed to build fpv plane. Can you give me the list? as I have understand that would to purchase on separate parts. Thank you.

[@youtyzable]

hey, will you be doing a review on the transmitter you were using? Great videos btw!

[@alexg3740]

how did you transmit the video from the gopro???

[@solnaer6439]

Hi does anyone know where this was filmed? Great video and have a good day!

[@Ultrarc]

Can't you take some of the wing off for a faster more sporty setup?

[@restoredemocracy5150]

badass dude. your video has convinced me to deviat from quads to fixed wi g flight. good insight and observations. excellent video

[@tm-xz2ng]

Nice video I can't believe you went under the tree epic move I got kit version hitec servos ntm 1000kv motor 5200mah aspec battery thing is a beast but landing is very tricky my first flight I cleared the field in to some trees $7 to fix and away again love the airframe but not stock electrics

[@crazyimpala3165]

do you see on your gogles the same quality like we can see here

[@Somethingcleverandwitty]

This looks kick a beautiful place where see you filming

[@FreddyBNL]

Impressive stable glides.

[@mr.boomguy]

This is my dream/favorite shape of a airplane drone. I hope to be flying a 3d printed version in the future. I got some design plans...

[@valveman12]

That would be so great to fly FPV. Hardly any motor noise in FPV. Nice

[@kandesigner]

Great review and very nice fpv, especially the last jumping cow LOL

[@davidwatkin1484]

Just bought one for AU$30 at a swap meet.😊 Can anyone advise on the CG location......please.

[@AndersonStuartCarredias]

Wonderful review , I bought the go discover too (PNF). I'll be flying it with the 5500 mah 4S. What sort of flying times are you getting? You live in a beautiful place by the way. Looks like Colorado!

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

Very good video as usual!

[@hjf9609]

how did you fix the broken motor mount?

[@InfrastructuraRomania]

Very cool flight!!

[@Migueldeservantes]

Yup, I have a large scare in my gut from one of those propellers braking a part! About 70% failure, and it is literally futile to consider a lawsuit.. I actually change to aluminum prop hubs, and custom carbon blades.. all custom... but worthed, I have kind of the same problem landing, but one get use to it after a while.. now using a patch antenna, and a tuned tx circular polarized antenna, I have not been able to reach the full mile of range with my 5.8! I don't really know what I'm doing wrong. I'm seriously consider going for a 1.3 Ghz system may be that way I can manage a longer range. I use a Zeta "FX-61 phantom, it is really stable I think that the planes with that type of vertical stabilizer style are much better than others. Thanks for the video I really enjoy, I

[@Spoif]

+rctestflight Great review. Nice flying under those trees !!!

[@kellyklaask7su990]

Always enjoy your videos. Thanks for sharing!

[@benjaminadams5477]

Do you have a link to the camera you used?

[@nightriderzack007]

Hi, where is the CG for this plane?

[@jamesturncliff5960]

How do you balance a folding prop?

[@RCJakob]

Coulis you do a tutorial on making the video out cable for the tyrnigy action/SJ4000

[@eastvalleycomputer]

The title should be renamed The FPV cow skimmer. Great flight!

[@carlosmci01]

Great video!! Awesome flights

[@jasonkass3563]

How do you like the Tgy i10?

[@TheRCAddict]

Great video! Looks awesome and great flying! Haha you almost hit a cow ;)

[@woodstoney]

Nice review but if I was a farmer and saw you buzzing my cattle, your flying days near my farm would be over. People are really getting up in arms about FPV flights over houses, farms, buildings and other private property. For all of us, have fun, fly safe and be respectful. Enjoy the hobby!

[@xboxice2005]

Hi guys does this plane need flight controller and how do i setup mixing :) its my first wing,i fly war birds.

[@scottthompson2481]

Great stuff , and i so pleased with your results, as i have one still in the box . How did you balance the folding prop ?

[@rctestflight]

Scott Thompson I put it on a prop balancer and spun it while adjusting the blades until they were lined up perfectly. Then just balanced it like a normal prop

[@marcusmckay8120]

Also is it a 10X6 or 10x8 prop ?

[@noealva]

That was some awesome footage.

[@TheRamblingShepherd]

Wow...that motor explosion was exactly what happened with my GoDiscover.

[@RubenRD97]

Awesome review + flying! : D

[@rcjackass]

what happened to Quinn?

[@MicahGallant]

how would you rate this as an FPV platform? good for that? does it go nice and slow?

[@Esadler2001]

Where can I buy one? Or get the materials to make one?

[@conn4832]

Hobbyking

[@stevoe1972]

I was waiting for you to fly under a cow. Great video.

[@steveracecars]

You the man! Have you reviewed the rvjet??

[@Vass881234]

Why do you want more speed on an FPV platform?

[@cam_3d]

Vass Why wouldn't you want more speed on FPV? =P

[@Vass881234]

I'm getting confused with filming platform v FPV platform, ignore me :-)

[@cam_3d]

Haha no problem ;)

[@tomf3150]

Or you need an esc with reverse. Ardu pilot can use this iirc

[@lbermude]

Awesome Video as usual. Pretty please 60fps next time?

[@My2centsRC]

Wow ypu were having fun dude

[@MrTechcat]

What flight times did you get with this setup?

[@rctestflight]

Tech Cat About 15 min

[@ChrisArmstrong194]

rctestflight on what battery?

[@HyperJoe]

+Christopher Armstrong He mentiioned the Battery in the Vid, He's using 3300 maH 4s Li-po

[@ChrisArmstrong194]

Thanks :)

[@JacobDavidCCunningham]

+rctestflight seems kind of weak... what about higher kv motor and higher cell count to reduce current draw?

[@HyperJoe]

Dang Good Review, thx for sharing, Always kinda steered away from the Flying Wing because of Tip Stall, this thing seems pretty stable, might have to give it a try..Great Video.. :)

[@williamweesner1191]

ordered from the east warehouse.....:-) been wanting it for a while

[@williamweesner1191]

well done man.. thanks for sharing.

[@MaxPowersHedgehog]

That was very satisfying, thank you!

[@mustygromits2208]

Where did you get this?

[@livewire1414]

Hobbyking

[@LeonardoValente_]

What's the flight time ?

[@captainwesb57]

6:34 Cows are like: WTH!

[@nahidabadlla920]

I would like to do special model differs from a simple and easy to model
