PLONE OR DRANE! This was hilarious, but I think that this aircraft is so awesome because it combines both experiences, flying a drone and a wing whenever you want... It is also very nice to see those "different ones", cheers!
PLONE OR DRANE! Loved watching that transition from drone to plane in mid-air. I had to rewind the transition 3 times, just to make sure I saw it! Amazing!
As a novice I think that you guys are having entirely to much fun. Straighten up and tow that barge!!! It does look like a bit of fun though. On the down side, it doesn't appear to be as responsive as a quad drone. But... Having a wing may let it fly further than a quad drone. In any case, it is an interesting concept!
Ken, call Dave and ask him for one of those TrueRC dual patches for your goggles. You’ll got a lot more range than just those stubbies, that’s how I get the insane depth into places like caraway. Missed you buddy, we gotta fly again soon.
Does the set of patch antennas work with DJI Goggles v2 and the DJI FPV Racer Drone? (Frequency Ranges = 2.4ghz and 5.x or just 5.xghz)? And… do you happen to have a valid link? Thanks!
After the calibration it looked like it was going down the Drane, but you finally Pl-ONE me over with it - so it's a Plone! thanks for the great video Ken!
PLONE or DRANE? Love this concept ever since i saw a similar design in quantix recon drone. I think that in airplane mode it should be much more energy efficient than a regular quadcopter. It is a pity that the declared signal transmission range is 3-5 kilometers, and not 10-15. I live in Zaporozhye, Ukraine. The front line is located 30 kilometers from our city. If I somehow miraculously win, I'll give it to the guys from the territorial defense forces to look after the russian enemies.
Definitely Drane I would really love to fly this vtol you have encouraged me and I am about to take the part 107 thanks for the videos and especially the Rt 66 series!
PLONE OR DRANE!! This has a steeper learning curve but looks like one heck of a lot of fun. Congrats for braving all the unknowns on camera and showing it to us!
plone-drane that's what I say. great video. at one point I thought it was going to fly off into no man's land. there must be a way to keep the parameters in memory, maybe..
Drane. First a drone to get your altitude then a plane for flyin’. Easy peasy. Loved the demo and outtakes. Keep flying. Head in the clouds feet on the ground. 👨🏼✈️
Plone or Drane....😊 nice videoediting in the beginning... you put both wings on...then a wing was blown away... and all of a sudden... both wings are of the wing and then... all of a sudden ...after the comment about needing the wings.... both wings are off... and then in the next clip both wings are on again... nice Ken... you should be a Magician...😂😂
Drane - Really just a fancy vertically assisted launch device in "drone" mode vs hand launching. Add some ailerons tied to the second switch with dual rudders, and it'd be the best of both worlds potentially.
I would say it’s a Drane, because it takes off in drone mode than becomes a plane. Looks like an interesting piece of draneware. I could see the fun with experimenting with advertising banner’s and sky writing. Lol.
PLONE OR DRANE? I loved when the wind blew away the wing and he was just completely calm and didn’t even skip a beat. This thing looks like so much fun. But it’s definitely a plone.
PLONE or DRANE? I love VTOLs. They are so revolutionary especially for agriculture and firefighting uses. I am a cadet at my local volunteer fire dept here in Oregon and I convinced my chief to get three drones for wildland firefighting. We love them! We have probably had around 200 hours of training on them.
It makes me really happy that you had a hard time getting this thing to fly, as I got sent one last year and also struggled 😂 It's a great bit of kit, but the software and instructions definitely need some work
I had troubles in the beggining as well. I gave mine to a friend for his farm checking on his cows and stuff. I am getting a OMPHobby ZMO VTOL . I am hyped for it!
I just saw a news article about some university i think in the US trying to design a vtol fixed wing drone/rc plane combo.. And my only thoughts to them... GOOD LUCK AND PLEAASE SEND ONE TO KEN!
Awesome video. I put my chance to win in below. Looks pretty cool. I bet my Grandson would love it when I'm done playing. Thank you for the chance to win
“Plone or Drane” I’m gonna say it’s a plane with a FPV soul in it! But it also lands as a drone that can help noobs like me to not crash, or maybe crash in style! 👍
@@KenHeron Cool that I'm selected for your giveaways! I won an iPhone 13 pro max, one Apple watch series 7, 2 hoodies and one limited edition sticker! Thanks Ken!
"PLONE OR DRANE" 🤪🤪🤪love that u get the chance to try both aspects of the hobby. Also i like they give u a descent full screen remote...however only chinese instructions?? Come on,,and then repeating the input info every pack...either way..love the vid ken hope i win...thanks Buddy👊👊👊👊
Looks pretty fun! Hmmm what to call it...If someone asks "What is that thing?" regardless of what you call it, you'll probably get the same "Huh...?" I'd go with PLONE tho.
Oh and dude! Please do some camera settings or similar! Your vids are always crisp.. I’m trying super hard to get some good visuals and biggest downside is camera settings!! And can I squeeze a second plone or drone in here 😁
PLONE OR DRANE!
This was hilarious, but I think that this aircraft is so awesome because it combines both experiences, flying a drone and a wing whenever you want...

PLONE OR DRANE! Loved watching that transition from drone to plane in mid-air. I had to rewind the transition 3 times, just to make sure I saw it! Amazing!
That wasn't the air-speed calibration Ken....that was the Interlock device. LOL

PLONE OR DRANE!! This was a hilarious video, but it does look like a fun system to fly once you get the hang of it!
Phone or Drane! Looks like alot of fun my son will really have a blast watching me fly it. Thank you.
Ken, call Dave and ask him for one of those TrueRC dual patches for your goggles. You’ll got a lot more range than just those stubbies, that’s how I get the insane depth into places like caraway. Missed you buddy, we gotta fly again soon.
Will do.
Thanks Austin!
Does the set of patch antennas work with DJI Goggles v2 and the DJI FPV Racer Drone?
(Frequency Ranges = 2.4ghz and 5.x or just 5.xghz)?
And… do you happen to have a valid link?
Thanks!
Great Review and Great Flying Ken and Jason. PLONE. Thank You.
Probably have to go with Plone. It does look like a lot of fun. And you'd be able to fly a plane without a traditional runway.
Watching, I was wondering about the 1 and was hoping it was corrected. Sure explains the excitement later. Drane.
“PLONE OR DRANE” is a Drone hybrid Plane 🤟🏻🤟🏻🤟🏻 Was a good flight even though everything was in Chinese 🤟🏻
Wild
… and the reason: foam plane drone 😝
To PLONE OR DRANE is the question.
After the calibration it looked like it was going down the Drane, but you finally Pl-ONE me over with it - so it's a Plone! thanks for the great video Ken!

🇺🇦👍
If I win this I'll send it to chanel #5!!! It would be an honor to help the Ukrainian people a little bit.
Definitely Drane I would really love to fly this vtol you have encouraged me and I am about to take the part 107 thanks for the videos and especially the Rt 66 series!
Awesome!
Best of luck on the test. 👍
Passed received my hard copy of pilots license finally and took my Autel Evo lite+ for a night flight of a carnival it came out amazing.
PLONE OR DRANE!! This has a steeper learning curve but looks like one heck of a lot of fun. Congrats for braving all the unknowns on camera and showing it to us!
You bet, Kim!
plone-drane that's what I say. great video. at one point I thought it was going to fly off into no man's land. there must be a way to keep the parameters in memory, maybe..
For sure plone lol
I'm also impressed with how well it seems to withstand the wind considering how wide it looks.
"But you do need the wing" lol
Plone! The main flying experience is a fixed wing. Love the videos!
"PLONE or DRANE"
As always a great video! For me is a plone because I'll use it most of the flight as a plane.
PLONE OR DRANE - Keep up the good work, Ken. Greetings from Spain.
🇪🇸👍
Plone or drain. This looks so cool Ken. Whoever wins I'm sure will love it. Keeper coming Buh & Bye
PLONE OR DRANE? Ken you never fail to make me laugh. Always a good thing to laugh at yourself! Good mental health practice.
Thanks Manuel!
Drane. First a drone to get your altitude then a plane for flyin’. Easy peasy. Loved the demo and outtakes. Keep flying. Head in the clouds feet on the ground. 👨🏼✈️
Plone or Drane. My auto correct was messing with Plone or Drane 😆 That looks like it would be really fun fly. Thanks for sharing Ken.

Loved the bloopers! Good stuff Ken
Glad you like them!
DRANE! Thanks for all your hard work Ken. Love the Chanel.
PLONE for sure. Looks like a great deal of fun.
PLONE OR DRAIN
you have some fun bloopering
DRANE. And yet another informative & hilarious vid. Thanks again Ken 😃
Plone or Drain? Not sure.
You should check out the Zmo-120 VTOL FPV plone, you can still see when in drone mode!
range seems short. I wonder if the VOR you were almost on top of cross bled into your frequency?
This looks really fun!!!!!! The plone or Drane
Attack of the Plone! That’s what this video should be called. And yes please.
PLONE OR DRANE!
Another great video. Love your humor.
Plone or drane
You never fail to entertain! Thanks Ken
Drane - Really just a fancy vertically assisted launch device in "drone" mode vs hand launching. Add some ailerons tied to the second switch with dual rudders, and it'd be the best of both worlds potentially.
PLONE....that hilarious 🤣 great vid.
Plone ! I enjoyed your video ,thanks !
PLONE or DRANE - Looks super fun to fly! Yeah would take some getting used to... love the concept!
I would say it’s a Drane, because it takes off in drone mode than becomes a plane. Looks like an interesting piece of draneware. I could see the fun with experimenting with advertising banner’s and sky writing. Lol.

Yeah, not the simplest interface.
I had troubles in the beggining as well. I gave mine to a friend for his farm checking on his cows and stuff. I am getting a OMPHobby ZMO VTOL . I am hyped for it!
Got to say drane! Really think it would be fun once you get the feel for it! Would like to fly it!!
Plone or Drane ! That looks bloody awesome !
I always liked the VTOL saves battery so well. You did well figuring this one out. Its is neither it is VTOL!!! PLONE OR DRANE
Great review of the PLONE OR DRANE, Ken
I always enjoy your talks and reviews. Great work.
PLONE OR DRANE
Love your channel Ken!
I just saw a news article about some university i think in the US trying to design a vtol fixed wing drone/rc plane combo..

PLONE OR DRANE? GOOD STUFF KEN! Keep it coming, very entertaining stuff!
“PLONE OR DRANE ?” It looks like a Drane to me Ken. :) and fun in either mode.
“Plone or Drane” I’m gonna say it’s a plane with a FPV soul in it! But it also lands as a drone that can help noobs like me to not crash, or maybe crash in style! 👍
"PLONE OR DRANE? That is the question", said Heliman Flysphere.
This looks so cool .would love to get one.
PLONE OR DRANE!
Ken, great channel keep up the hilarious content ,
PLONE OR DRANE great video as always Ken
That was fun watching you screw up. Reminds me of my first cheapo RC helicopter.
Plone or Drane. With a built in breathalyzer! Hello from Fall Creek Falls!
PLONE OR DRANE!! Allowing you to do the happy dance on the runway.
"Plone or Drane?" Looks like a Plone to me lol! Great video
05:13 "I don't know what happened to it, I hit return to home..." The Swan K-1 Pro flying back to China 😂😂😂
🇨🇳🤣
@@KenHeron Cool that I'm selected for your giveaways! I won an iPhone 13 pro max, one Apple watch series 7, 2 hoodies and one limited edition sticker! Thanks Ken!
Plone or drane both would be fun. Thanks Ken.
Oh, you did the classic Calibration Fart! Not often you'll see or hear those today. 😅🇸🇪❤
💩👍
That looks like fun, so here we go. Plone or Drane
It looks like a PLONE! Hello from Connecticut!!
I was waiting for the turning radius to be further then the control links ability :D
That looks so much fun. Question can I pair it with my mavic 3 pro controller hmmm
Looks like a nice eVTOL Thsnks for sharing.
That thing is so kool! I'm glad you went through the learning curve and we won't lol Thanks Ken!
Hey Ken, I'd say Drane. Because Swan K-1 was "Draneing Your Brainie" trying to program it for flight ✈️ 🧠. As always love your style.
😜🤘
Plone or Drane, gotta be Plone for me Ken. Great video as always
Plone or Drane?
I like the VTOL concept and it looks interesting after you get over the language barrier of the instructions.
"PLONE OR DRANE" 🤪🤪🤪love that u get the chance to try both aspects of the hobby. Also i like they give u a descent full screen remote...however only chinese instructions?? Come on,,and then repeating the input info every pack...either way..love the vid ken hope i win...thanks Buddy👊👊👊👊
Plone or Drane, Drane imo. But this looks so fun and amazing. Have a good day and happy flying from Australia
🇦🇺👍
Did you have auto temp control off on the goggles? If you didn't it would be running in low power mode and give you break up when relatively close.
PLONE!! Ive never had one and Ken it looks so fun! It would be great to fly it with the fam! Great video as always
I actually sell these. Guess Ken isn't gonna pick me lol , they are great! Good ole ky people here. Give us a shout.
@@RotorBotz heck yeah nc people here neighbor! Very cool looking plone Id love to fly it!
Flies fantastic. Lots of fun. My place is in a really tight hollow/valley(hollar).lol Fly it out of here all the time. Absolute Blast!
@@Marcus2750-u1t NC folks are some of the very best btw
@@RotorBotz yeah I saw sum of your vids its too cool out your way! Ill def want one and when I do Ill post a video on it too
Well I'm wondering if I could or not get a PLONE DRANE but it would be great to try. Thanks again for a great review
Plone!! Great video and always fun
plone or drane ?! give it to me, my precious ... :p
Another great video as always, keep going ;)
PLONE OR DRANE? Always informative and get to see the real moments of wtf is going on ;) Thanks Ken!
Plone or Drane? Looks like a blast! to fly! Thanks for making the funniest drone vids on TH-cam!
🤓👍
PLONE. Looks like a fun flight experience.
It's a PLONE! Great video!!
Awesome video Ken. Plone or Drain? I think more of a Drain because it is a drone before it's a Plone.
PLONE for sure, as it seems to be flown mainly in fixed wing mode
PLONE OR DRANE! We have been tempted to get one of these.
Plone or Drane, looks like fun there Ken
I go with Drane. Never won anything in my life hope to win it. Love the videos Ken.
🤓👍
“PLONE OR DRANE” it looks like a lot of fun
love the crown vic
"PLONE OR DRANE!" This thing is awesome! I'd love to own one!
😎cool shots of the police car 🚔 in your he end. Drone plane thing
Very cool! Takes me back to my slow stick days and other wing their craft which I like to fly along with the drones. However, is it a Plone or Drane?
What is the range / price of a cheaper foamy plane? Just ballpark. I’m using mini 2 at the moment just looking for more distance
Plone or Drane
Definitely plone. Looks like a lot of fun.
Looks pretty fun! Hmmm what to call it...If someone asks "What is that thing?" regardless of what you call it, you'll probably get the same "Huh...?" I'd go with PLONE tho.
Ken I'm going to have to go with 'DRANE'....as in it's going to Drane whatever free time I have left over, flying this around all summer.
🤣🤣
Oh and dude! Please do some camera settings or similar! Your vids are always crisp.. I’m trying super hard to get some good visuals and biggest downside is camera settings!! And can I squeeze a second plone or drone in here 😁
Since it has an air unit can you used your dji radio
