Ive been following your channel for about 6 I love the knowledge you are providing

I just got into wings after 5 years of quads. I did buy a vas chimera but glued the wing on upside down and with the airfoil that it has wouldn’t fly. They sent me another one and I revoked its closet camping permit after I bought and flew the sky shadow S800. Waaaayyy too much fun. Can’t believe how much punishment it can take. Two crashes and with some goop glue it in the air again. I have a reptile dragon another
S800 V2 and just bought a vas specwing for some speed. Great video I’ve watched you a million times. I’m a slow learner.

I love the scales! Seeing “Stability, ” as mentioned in the intro, for action cams would be awesome, as would one for flight times. Even without those, this system would be a great addition to the reviews. I was about to order a T1 Ranger, but this video has me reconsidering the Dolphin now.

[rcpilots]

Lee, sincere thanks for the time you’ve invested in your videos, great advice- honest and objective commentary. You are a gent

@12:41 AR Wing Pro

I like the scale for rating fixed-wings! I think it covers many things about what someone would think about when purchasing a fixed-wing.
Quick reference for the scale used (3:22):
Slow Speed Performance | Durability | Space for Electronics
Fast Speed Performance | Maneuverability | Transportability/Storability

I missed this one back when I had been in service deployment for a few month but luckily you had told me about this video today when I had mentioned the nice new score for planes .

Great improvement.

[tk-maker]

Great videos and thanks for the efforts in explaining each wing. 8 of my FPV drone friends including me now into fix wings and your channel became extreme useful 😍

I have the F01 on my list. You didnt mention the Reptile Dragon V2. Its my favorite by far. I bought and tried to fly the AR Wing Pro. It crashed six times and ended up in the trash. I went back to the AR900 and it flies great. I have a T1 on order and look forward to flying it. I have abondoned the long nose planks because I'm sick of them breaking off during a less than ideal landing. My next one after the T01 will be the Atomic Dolphin. It looks like a gem to fly.

"Launches are relatively easy." - Re: Ar Pro.

I hope so! Mine is almost ready to maiden. Some folks have really struggled with launching this plane. They'd beg to differ on it's crash survivability. I added some carbon spars in the bottom with goop. I laminated also even though it was a total pain in the butt. I'm finding it very challenging to find CG and with my DJI air unit in a side bay, I had to add weight at the opposite wingtip to balance it side to side.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts on what you are currently flying!

[johncarold]

Hi Lee Great list of planes. I have a AR Pro that I'm still working out the kinks. But I really like is the HeeWing Ranger T1. I just need something that will break down for transport. Thanks again for the list of favorite planes.

[RubyS.]

Not that anyone asked me but I like the t-1 for proximity ish flying. I don't have a GPS or anything in it just throw and go. The little flyfish is next on my list it's really fun LOS with the rudder can make nice turns and fpv just cruising around does good in the wind for it's size. And the dolphin I have setup with FC and giant battery it's just a nice plane fast and efficient. Also really like the mini skyhunter racing twin boom another fun proximity flyer but not much room for batteries and such

[larrycung]

Hi, I’m interested in the atomic dolphin. What is the average flight time with the recommended battery and motor? Could you fly it in a soccer field or does it need more space?

[вечная_мерзлота]

it'd be nice to have links in description.
so we can easily find it to purchase it.

[nvca]

Thanks so much - very valuable practical information
I believe the Ranger T1 is the most silent and the Diatone Ripper the most annoying?
From what I have heard most pushers are loud because the prop is relative close to the end of the wings ... do you think extending the motor mount on the end of the Dolphin and using a larger low RPM folding prop might help?
I like an efficient fast plane with power/range and I guess the Dolphin might be perfect for that, and it has a huge bay for a big battery and plenty of smart hardware.

[leandro]

Can you clear my doubt?
Is the lift on the drak to enhance diving? Can you give me a advice or tip for a good responsive wing for mountain fpv?
I really appreciate your attention, thanks!

[REDROBRCFPV]

I love the t1 ranger I just wish the tail was more easy collapse able for transporting.
