The motors seem to be set up for top outward rotation? Although not widely recognized in the RC community, there is a reason why twins should run top inward: If one motor quits, a top inward configuration will make the yaw and roll asymmetries cancel each other out. Tips outward will make them compound each other. One would expect kit manufacturers to know that; it's pretty common knowledge in full scale aviation.
@@AlbertKimTV I'm afraid the effect scales up and down with size. A more determining factor would be how far out the nacelles are located, which seems to be farther than necessary for prop clearance. It would take quite a bit of rudder to counter thrust asymmetry with one motor out. The counter roll aid of a prop inward setup would be welcome if that happened. But I wouldn't worry too much; motors tend to be more reliable than engines, thank God.
If you are wanting to fly this with fpv, you can use a $25~ fc like the HGLRC Forward F4 mini, it is available at getfpv, but im sure you can also find them elsewhere I use it for my zohd dart250, and it does an amazing job! it has 6 servo/s pads (2x motor, ailerons, rudder, elevator), a barometer, and it supports inav. Love your content, and i look forward to seeing more of your fpv plane videos!
Awesome looking airplane, Albert! It really flies nice! 😃 Do you think one of those small iNav Matek boards would fit there? 🤔 Anyway, great flying and review! Happy holidays! And stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
PSA: When cleaning the wings before applying the stickers do NOT use acetone, nail polish remover (often contains acetone too) or other "aggressive" solvents. They will dissolve the styro to a white, sticky goo in no time.
I gave up on the video because I can't find a stabilizer that fits. Too small of a space inside. I will try later with the Hee Wing T1 Ranger instead. For minor crashes this is totally durable. If you go straight into the ground at full speed it will explode like any other plane. I've never seen one to survive that severe of a crash.
@@AlbertKimTV FYI - I finally got a couple of the WLtoys mini warbirds (the T28 and the P40) and have flown them straight into the ground...maybe not exactly full speed, but close enough...and not asphalt or packed dirt, but a regular grass lawn...and they laughed it off. In your experience would you say the Flying Fish is about as damage-resistant in crashes as the WLtoys and Eachine mini warbirds are?
All that circle-flying starting making me sick...I can't imagine how you must have felt being the one actually standing there spinning around and around

Interesting. I wonder how much of an effect there would be at this small scale as the motors aren't very powerful.
@@AlbertKimTV I'm afraid the effect scales up and down with size. A more determining factor would be how far out the nacelles are located, which seems to be farther than necessary for prop clearance.

@@AlbertKimTV stays similar, definitely noticeable on my small planes and on my larger ones like the bix.
Was wondering if the kopilot would fit. Looking forward to seeing more videos. This plane has some potential. Happy flying everyone. ✈️🤓
I'm going to strip it down. We'll see...
@@AlbertKimTV does it fit? :D
Looking forward to the next video. This sub250g FPV plane has a lot of potential.
Yeah, hoping I can find a stabilizer that will fit.
I always enjoy your videos so much. Thank you Mr. Kim.
Thanks for watching!
Nice looking. It reminds me a little of a Ta-154. Maybe it would look neat in Luftwaffe colors.
😎
i want to try this plane as my first plane, thanks your information!
Have fun!
Very Nice! Thank You!
😎
a matek F411-WSE fits and you can get a caddx vista on it and a nebula pro nano :D it'll be over 250g but under 270 AUW
😁
The insta go2 will get your CG forward 🙂
Actually a LOT forward... I might put it behind the canopy and in front of the VTX. Not a lot of space for stuff on this bird.

Nice, I'll check it out.
Very cool 😀
😎
I'd be interested in this at under half the price they're asking... over $200 is just insane.
It's $129.
AU its $200 + shipping.
Nice.
I have an un-maidened Aeroscout that's been gathering dust.
I've lost interest in flying, again
Sorry to hear that
Awesome looking airplane, Albert! It really flies nice! 😃

Anyway, great flying and review!
Happy holidays! And stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
Investigating for the next video. Gonna try to strip down the Kopilot Lite first.
@@AlbertKimTV Oh, sweet! Thanks, Albert! 😃
can a kopilot be put on this? I have never had kopilot, but I hear it is a stabilizer and a rth device.
I was going to try but it's too big to fit inside so I gave up.
PSA: When cleaning the wings before applying the stickers do NOT use acetone, nail polish remover (often contains acetone too) or other "aggressive" solvents. They will dissolve the styro to a white, sticky goo in no time.
But isopropyl alcohol is OK, right? I didn't have any problems with the foam on mine.
@@AlbertKimTV IPA should be fine, yes.
I learned that a long time ago on a GWS A10.
Great review as always; good job Albert! Just wondering, can it also do a right turn? 😊
LOL
Did you make that follow-up video for this bird yet?
And is it REALLY durable in crashes you've had, or just average durability?

We’re you able to fit the kopilot ?
It's a little too big so I'm either gonna scrape out some of the foam or find another solution that is smaller. Haven't had time to look into it much.

Strangely I don't get that dizzy as long as I keep my focus on the plane. As soon as my focus shifts to the background, I get dizzy right away.
