Good job BD.. You know we're gonna want to see the Avanti V2 comparison too.. All the new fresh content for you to make.. 😀

Excellent job comparing these two sport jets. I’ve seen both fly and never thought the Eflite Viper would have that much left in the tank so
to speak. I’m impressed with that alone. Nevertheless. You can’t go wrong with having either jet. Thanks for sharing this with us. Take care, Brad.

Thanks for the great video. They both fIy very well. I personally think the Viper is more robust and also powerful. It has a big flaw: the stall is always lurking, especially on landing the left wing tends to stall. I tried to land with half flaps and throttle stick first at 40% on approach and then at 30% until touchdown. It seems to work. I saw someone online using the "crow". Greetings from Italy.

hey there i’m in the Blount county model aviators club and i’ve been recommended these two jets as first jets. this is the exact video i needed!

[matthewvega]

I like the way you fly, BD. Super smooth!

[paulcarruthers]

Nice to see a video where someone can actually fly 👍🏻

Love the FPV Gates in the background! We need to visit your club next time in the US and Race drones and fly EDFs. Thanks for the awesome comparison

Thank you for this video. I have both planes. I have yet to maiden the Viper. Nice comparison. Both great planes!!

Viper летал непринужденно, за Avanti переживал от начала до конца. Казалось что не вытянет и разобьеться. А вообще круто!!!

[bobturner]

The Eflite 90mm viper is by far the best 90mm EDF jet you can purchase. Thanks for your videos really starting to enjoy them.

[rlbutterfield]

Nice flying and narration. They both look like great planes. 👍🏻

My buddy and I flew these at the same time. He flew his Avanti and I flew my Viper. The Avanti has quicker acceleration but top speed definitely goes to the Viper...even with mine having a 6200 pack and his having a 5000. Both are very capable and pretty equal in aerobatic maneuvers but as far as power definitely goes to the Viper 90 (like you found).
I typically fly my Viper with 6000 packs and a 5 min timer and always land with at least 40% or more remaining. In the Viper you're typically at 1/2 throttle unless you want a speed run or going max vertical.

Avanti is a great jet . But the Viper is a whole other animal . I love my vipers in 70mm and 90mm. Hands down the viper wins here . Sold my Avanti after 40 or so flights . NIce video Brother

Very nice flying and comparison. Paying that amount BNF is not too bad. At the end for the avanti you still need to get a receiver for it. I myself bought the Avanti and still had to spend a nice penny for a receiver. In my case it was a $130 difference at the end to purchase it flying ready compared to the Viper. This is my 2nd Avanti. Will look into Viper in the future.

[davidcarroll]

Very informative video, with impartial advice from owning both jets (you lucky bugger )

[williamhoodtn]

Brandon, you fly these planes very well! Enjoy watching you with both of these planes. You should come fly at House Mountain sometime.

[michaelcuthbert]

Great comparison video, thanks for sharing.

Great review Jeff. I have both jets and have not flown my Avanti after flying the Viper. The new tech that comes with the viper, along with its flying characteristics, great surface hinging, vast fuselage space have won me over. Not to mention the performance advantage.

[dthigs]

I have both jets and both fly great not to mention the Albatros flys really good also.
