Of all of the awesome RC knowledge I've gleaned from BPRC, I think the lesson in this video (this plane will drive you to drink by the 4th or 5th flight) is my current favorite 👍

[patrickciarcia]

I just enjoy the long build and fly times on the built planes ✈️

[thebunkreport]

I just added rudders to both of my Vipers and I have to say the flight experience is so much better. I have to wonder why they don't install stock rudders on these. I'd be willing to pay an extra $12 for the servo and linkage! Maybe they'll listen and start adding them.

Love your honesty brother man. We could use some of that Iowa honesty round here. Thanks Megan! Best camera crew ever

[johnnymaynard]

Always Awesome and truthful info from my favorite RC pilot Brian Phillips !

[andycraig]

Brian, I hate to disagree with you....but. I got my avanti last week after i had seen this video and expected to need to add a rudder. My reality was totally different from yours. I flew this with a 4s 1500 and with 100 percent throws with 25 percent expo, and it was amazing. Easiest jet i have ever flown. Very fast roll rate, super stable and the widest flight envelope i have ever seen. I have 50 planes including many edfs from 50mm to 80mm, and this is the first that i can confidently fly on circuits round my field at 6 foot of the ground. It turns at very slow speeds without a hint of a stall...and shoots around doing very tight turns at full throttle. To be honest it needs a rudder like i need an extra butt hole. This litle plane blew me away. Love your channel, andy in uk.

Brian,
At first, I really enjoy watching you on RC airplanes, Sailplanes and jets. You’re in great position, but not your helicopters except your OMP M4 and that was very great job you did and I am sorry if I offended you on gps or self leveling helicopters.
I asked my fellow member who know so much on Spektrum receiver for safe and self leveling. I asked him to remove all of that and asked him to change panic self leveling and that’s really fits me as a glove.
As for self leveling and safe, I cannot control my helicopter as before and it is terrible way to get it responsive very quickly enough. I’m being honest with you. I preferred panic self leveling no safe.
Keep practicing on your simulator and you’ll thank me a lot by giving me a gift OMP M4 kit with servos and ESC.

Easiest hand launch ever wow, this is a perfect park flyer.

[RCPMK]

just noticed the electricity pole and lines are gone. great videos!

[prowlus]

Got a Avanti and i think my one is lethargic on 3s . Will 4s perk it up without blowing the esc? Also will you be reviewing the new 50mm Mb-339 from bh?

[paulballard]

Just got mine. I put rudder on it. Flew it a couple times without rudder and a couple times with rudder. DEFINITELY better with rudder. Flys just like it’s big brother

[dougcoates]

Brian, do you still feel that a 4S battery is a good and safe option for the Arrows 50mm EDF's? Thank you. Doug Coates, Bristol, Rhode Island.

Hi brian. I live in uk and watched this video just AFTER i had ordered this plane from ali express. Just a quick question. I have the arrows 50mm viper which is rated 3s, but i fly on 4s with no issue, so ii am giong to try the same with this little avant. My question is this, the viper has no rudder, but flies very well as a bank and yank. I know you had a good experience with the viper, so how much different is this plane, which you seem to find harder ro fly. Bearing in mind they are both 50mm hand launch from arrows, have they produced a worse flying plane than previously. Andy in uk.

[maxun]

you said has a 30amps esc, then did you do a amps draw with the meter on 4s? Did you check the temp of the motor on 4S?

[zebzeb]

what's the difference with the Arrows Viper 50? They both look pretty much the same.

[lancelink]

I would have liked to see you do a rudder modification. How does this compare to the Arrows Viper 50mm?

[RaGeRC]

I've done rudders on pretty much every 64mm jet I own. This one being smaller I would honestly try using one of those micro linear servos to keep the weight down and cut a rudder into this one.

[BrianTurner-ubtu]

For 20 more dollars, you get a 64mm, 4s plane with flaps and rudder! from FMS!! Why are rudderless planes still in production? Or even the HABU 50mm has a rudder. Hard no to anything without a rudder. Great flying Brian!!

[highdesertmisfitsrcclub]

I agree on your battery discussion. But i would take that one step further and say Don't waste your time with 3s on any plane My modo is if it will take 3s 4s will be wayyy better. Thanks Brian.

[rafaeltorres]

Bank and Yank brother😅

Yup a small servo and a clear plastic rudder will work .
