Being a former CV-22 Osprey operator, when transitioning into airplane mode you need to try to keep a little nose high as it tends to nose dive when the nacelles move forward. As for CV-22 speak, what you call ailerons is actually called Flaperons and the elevator is called an Elleron. Great presentation though. I may have to buy one myself.

"and the elevator is called an Elleron" Elevon, and the V22 uses an elevator, not an elevon (like a Cessna 177. I have no idea what an "Elleron" is).

Give it some time, the Navy are replacing the C-2 Greyhound Carrier onboard Delivery (COD) with V-22 now so now the COD can deliver to cruisers, destroyers,frigates, & amphibious assault ships. So as they get more numerous and operating experience the Coast Guard will probably end up buying a few.

[@sseemorefar36]

Phenomenal flight guys. It did a fantastic job the second time you went airplane mode. Great recovery the first time. Great job. Beautiful plane.

This is the first RC Osprey I've seen and I like it. A lot faster than I thought it would be too.

[@yobrojoost9497]

I see these flying over quite often, the real ones, I mean. Always in plane mode. It was interesting to see how this type of aircraft switch from hover to forward flight and back again. Amazing how this can be done with a model aircraft nowadays. Good save on that first attempt! Nice video!

I’ve been into RC since 83.. never made the plunge into transitioning to the air,, now I think I’m ready. Nice video

[@RCINFORMER]

You can do it. It's not the plane, it's the pilot/instructor! The key is getting a good instructor at your local field... your instructor makes all the difference:)

[@maverick744]

@@RCINFORMER I’m a builder and tinkerer and the kits in the 80’s were balsa that you built and we didn’t have instructors or simulators that aid so much today but from watching your videos just your quick tutorials gave me a second wind. RC cars are my passion having kept every single one of them and now my job affords me the pleasure to have a few days off for myself so I’m ready. I’m a drone pilot but can imagine the two fly totally different not to mention the plethora of channels. Most I can hope is get some Instruction online or at the airfield which is always busy. Thanks for the reply!

[@RCINFORMER]

@@maverick744 Just ask at your local field & they will/should set you up with a local instructor to help you out:) You will have to register at AMA to fly at most fields. Also, the Real Flight Sim is good to get to practice.

[@thercrv8202]

I appreciate your use of a audio transmitter so people can actually hear you. So many "wannabe" youtubers, some of them quite popular somehow, think they're producing a quality video when you can't hear them or they get such a hollow echo from the room they're in it just makes me shut them down and move on. Well done. Great video too, but you already know that!

[@RCINFORMER]

Thanks for the great comment!

[@theamatimasblink6594]

After the craft has been airborne Now if you need more forward ,then use duel rate...Other would be radio Microzone loves that flight controller. And if you move it moves this system does what it does..to inputs from last commands. and programs of staying level..Get it why crashing it in transition..Acting up ? Right thing switch to Hover has Made this a great Aircraft . Good Review...worth every penny. !

[@trailrider0194]

@@RCINFORMER It is a bit frustrating when you grow up using one system and then someone tries to force you to use another.

[@sylvesterstewart868]

We only tolerate that from our military for when we have to invade them "metric countries".

[@RCINFORMER]

@@trailrider0194 In full scale Aviation, the Imperial system of measurement is much more precise "FEET" versus "METERS"... In small scale things like RC Aviation, metric is way more precise... "MM" is WAY-WAY-WAY more precise than "INCHES" ... I merely use which system gives me the most precision for what I am doing:)

[@RCINFORMER]

I don't agree with a metric system takeover. As a kid I was told that everything was changing to metric, It never happened & that's cool. Our system great. However, when it comes to small things lig the TC hobby, metric is far more a precise system of measurement. In larger worlds like full scale Aviation our Imperial system is much more precise in the larger scale!

[@afterburnerrc6333]

Great flight! I like the idea but that fan has got to go LOL. Also, I can't get over how small those props are, full size is 38' in dia.

[@twentysevenlitres]

I was thinking the same thing. I wonder if it's been set up so it can take off conventionally. Either that or the flight control software isn't quite there? It sounded fantastic in conventional flight, good imitation of turboprop noise. If it had bigger scale props, that noisy lift fan might not be required.

[@ScarabChris]

Pretty cool. I'm an RC nut but only surface, boats, cars, trucks, etc. I tried to get into helicopters with a T-Rex 450 about 10 years ago and I was not very good at flying. I managed to get some hover time and some slow low altitude flying and not crash it. I sold it because it was not very fun always worrying about crashing it. I also have an original DJI phantom which is easier to fly than the helicopter but still not for beginners. But...maybe time to try flying again with all this new flight control technology.

Incredible video very informative

[@nick_doutrnz_entertainment]

This has my attention. Pretty cool model. Price is reasonable. I did notice a noisy fan. Is that the main rotors? Is there anything you can do to make it quieter? I'll be honest, even though the model seems well built and constructed, that noise changes my mental feeling about it. My mind goes straight to a cheap, knock-off plane, even though it doesn't appear to be. That noise is a borderline dealbreaker for me.

A small fan in the back elevator would keep it from bucking when a gust hits the rear. I guess you would need 2, one to blow up and one down unless its tail heavy in the heli config.

[@dirkhoekstra727]

It was flying forward the whole time and then you landed and said you are ready for forward flight now. That was funny. But I understand what you mean. Where is this hover fan you talk about? Is it hidden in the fuselage? I thought the two props provided all the lift in hover mode?

[@RCINFORMER]

There is a lift fan in the tail.

[@britinozoz]

There is an EDF fan in the rear of the fuz that cuts out in forward flight

Hi Rich, I have the 2018 version only flew twice (crashed twice) transitioning from forward to hover it will go to a Spiral. Steve mention to make sure to recalibrate every time I change battery. That being said, you had some issues. Will you addressed them with Banana H...? I would like to purchase again, but not until is safe enough

[@RCINFORMER]

They watched it, nothings perfect... the recovery is to start the transition high enough and switch back to hover mode if theres a problem and let the stabilization help with the recovery:)
