WLToys XK A120 3 Channel RC Flying Scale Model of A380 Airbus Flight Test Review

This is actually a great flying airplane. Fully stabilized and easy to fly, It should be an excellent learn to fly plane for new pilots. Find it here bit.ly/WLToysA380
Pros
Great looking flying scale model of the A380 Airbus. Constructed of EPP foam, it's very crash resistant.
Six axis stabilized for very smooth and stable flying for beginner pilots.
Three axis flight control with throttle, differential thrust yaw, and elevator pitch control.
Great outdoor flier, but maneuverable enough to also be flown indoors.
Good transmitter controller range of over 200 meters.
Powered by common 3.7V 300mah battery (LoSi connector).
Cons
Brushed 0720 motors. But they are very common and inexpensive motors. You should easily be able to find replacements if needed.
Relatively short flight time for a plane at about 7 minutes. But again it uses very common and inexpensive LiPo batteries that can be purchsed to keep you flying.

The XK A160 Skylark is still my favorite plane I’ve owned. For what they are, these XK’s really do well. And for the cost. You really can’t beat it. Great way to enter the hobby.

Hey! Does this plane handle a small camera and if so then how light does the camera have to be?

[@Quadcopter101]

It's got to be extremely light, like under 5 grams. You can do something like this. kzbin.info/www/bejne/b4a6iIaZo7F1rtk

[@santoscarlos3650]

Is it safe to fly this on a beach?

[@akaki115]

I have a question. After taking off with full throttle, can I reduce the throttle to half for example? will it maintain the height and fly? Because it flies too fast with full throttle. Thanks for this video!

[@Quadcopter101]

Yes, that's what you're supposed to do. Throttle is mainly for climbing and descending. Once you are off the ground, let go of the right pitch stick, and gradually reduce the left throttle stick until its at a steady altitude. From there you can increase or reduce throttle to climb or descend.

[@akaki115]

@@Quadcopter101 thank you for this very comprehensive answer!

[@jasoncurrie475]

Which one is better the A380 or the qf008 dreamliner? Which one is more durable and which one would you choose if you could only buy one?

[@Quadcopter101]

The QF008 is a better flier, although it is a little more difficult to assemble because of the need for glueing. kzbin.info/www/bejne/hYOXY5l4ppdqeNE

[@pajamamar2011]

I have the 787. Remote has trim adjustment prompting more-at-ease control. It's flies really well.

[@pajamamar2011]

(Cont.) I have plastic modeling experience and the 787 is fun to assemble as it is to fly!

[@luv444sunsets]

I do but they are a lot more people expensive the fighter jet ones are in the hundreds or thousands but you can get one cheap one what is foam but if you want a passenger they are in the thousands I suggest pick up this one it’s a lot more cheaper it’s pretty fast

[@patrusmaxsiontinggal9491]

can i use more mAH (example 500mah) for the battery so that i can have more flight time?

[@realmathsview3602]

patrusmaxsiontinggal 94 yes

Olá o meu deu problema ele quando conecta no controle remoto ele desliga e não liga mais , sabe me dizer qual é o motivo que ele não está funcionando ?? Tem algum reset no controle ou no avião que posso fazer ?

[@GroundControlRC]

Nice 3 channel plane. This is one of the few that didn't seem to be tail heavy. That may because of the gyro. Looks like much fun ;-) See you in the Air!

[@kustje]

Of course it flies well, it is an Airbus and that is European, I have to be a bit of a chauvinist.LOL

[@aaronkuchida6470]

is there rudder control on this plane?

[@Quadcopter101]

Yaw control turning is through differential thrust of the motors only. There is no mechanical rudder control.

[@Christian-zc3er]

You should try and build your own drone ,and see how it goes and how big u make it,that's how much fun you'll have

[@brianevans4]

Yes I agree

[@idioticstuff2685]

Where did you buy it? I would like to, also!

[@sripriyag7891]

I bought it on Amazon,it's cheap!

[@starguard4122]

Is it OK to point the antennae directly at the plane?

[@Quadcopter101]

No. Antennas radiate most of their energy radially from the sides of the antenna, with very little energy coming out of the tip (like a donut pattern around the antenna). Thus it's best to aim the sides of the antenna toward the plane for best range. Pointing the tip will give worse range.

[@starguard4122]

Thanks

[@leonnaicker5883]

Where can I get one like this... I'm in south Africa. Please let me know.

[@matthewhumphries5253]

What's the strongest MAH battery I can use without damaging the aircraft. I'm wanting to get a long flight time. Would you know?

[@pajamamar2011]

It can take a 750 mah,but I recommend a 500 just to be safe not to overheat the components nor extra weight to the plane. I use the 500 for my C-17 & the 787.

Nope, this one was released under Weili Toy's WLToys sub brand. But here is an interesting tidbit, XK = WLToys and also = JJRC All are sub brands of Shantou Chenghai Weili Toys Industrial Co., Ltd

Of course it flies well, it is an Airbus and that is European. As a European, I have to make good advertising, right? I have to be a bit of a chauvinist.LOL. And don't forget that European planes float when they have to make an emergency landing in the water.
