This Might Be The Best Affordable RC Fighter Jet Yet

Finally a reason to be excited about the hobby all over again this f-22 Raptor is an actual Brushless EDF it is not fake like they have been in the past with a little propeller on the back and it's not overpriced Overinflated branded by some other company. This is a Volantex Which is dominating the RC industry on small ready-to-fly airplanes with flight Destabilization on board that comes in at a Reasonable price this has control surfaces where I'd like to see them on a small EDF like this We have ailerons and elevator in the back, which will most likely function together Mixed for elevon action. We do not have rudder control But that's okay on something small like this because you really wouldn't be able to feel that while you're in the air It comes with a spare prop, which is very cool. It's an actual EDF prop and then we have wire landing gear we will try that in this video and then our battery is a very nice powerful XT 30 plug on here with a Balance lead because that is a 2s battery. This is gonna be awesome And did I mention this is ready to fly with our included transmitter? We have all of our aerobatic buttons So I'm hoping we can do at least a roll on this and our flight stabilizer Which we can turn on or off or right in the middle comes out of the box Just like this most people would think that you have to spend hours Building and then more hours learning to fly a plane like this But I'm going to show you in this video just in case you're new to the hobby But it comes out of the box exactly like this and anybody can pick this up and fly it. So let's go Hey, can we do an actual touch and go with this? Launch with confidence launch events. Let's go That was solid We're in stabilized beginner mode right now and it is flying like an EDF Alright, we're just gonna go back here because we have wide turns we have speed on this Abby. This is flying Nice sounds good, too. So let's get a full throttle pass going down the runway because I am holding back on the juice I'm a half throttle for this this this feels good. I'm very impressed with this Wow So it's tiny good luck tracking it Abby and I'm I'm hoping we can get sharper turns with a higher rate here because those are very wide turns But we'll get it over the runway again, and I'm gonna push the stunt button and let's just see if we can do it Maybe hold it. Oh Maybe we need more throttle for it to pull it off. This is awesome This is the smallest successful flying 2s powerful EDF that I've ever had my hands on It is flying like an EDF. It's not slow I will tell you that so if you are The total beginner you might want to pick up like a warbird first before this with an actual propeller I would not want this to be a person's very first RC plane just because of its actual speed This is way more powerful and fast than I expected. This is definitely hobby grade I'm really trying on the rolls there, but that is not just it's just not cutting it Got a little bird trying to keep up now. Maybe it only has loops. Let's just go for it. Yeah, okay Well, there we go. It wanted it wanted to try a loop It just didn't hold off because we didn't have enough throttle so we can't do rolls on this but we can do a loop Let's try it full throttle There it goes. Look look look crazy, oh I just have to wait for it and then do the input. So here we go. One more time down the runway. Oh I can't get it to work consistently, but we have a stunt button I will keep playing around with that later But this thing is I'm just crazy. It's a handful to fly on the wide turns You just want to make sure you have room for those banks, but it is flying very hobby grade ask I'm curious. Can it fly out of stabilized mode? Yeah, okay. We're holding it straight There's kind of a loop into a figure eight Cuban Cuban eight, sorry Okay, I'm holding it It has basically a s3x equivalency and I got to go into stabilized mode just because I lost orientation that far down There we go Can I click one of these sticks and get a high rate? I do wish we had a higher rate, but I don't think we have that and that's okay So my only complaint with this jet right now is Because of its speed it could catch a person off guard with those wide turns in beginner mode I do wish I had a higher rate in beginner mode because it's very capable of handling sharper turns without stalling So just ease on the juice on your banks and you get a little bit more Aggression out of your face. So before we totally lose our battery I do want to see if this can do an actual ground takeoff and landing so I'm gonna land it in the grass and with enough juice left, hopefully we can do a Ground takeoff. Oh, there we go. Look at that. Oh, we're almost hairy ring. Oh, I couldn't resist that. That was cool And we'll pop it down in the grass right here. Yeah, perfect. Oh This might be kind of crazy. We're gonna try an auto takeoff. There's a little bit of a setup we're gonna press the Aerobatic button and it should beep and then we just go full throttle and see what it does. Here we go Okay, so full throttle So you're not putting input Barely made it up it it does it that doesn't that wasn't you pulling up? No Wow So this is with the landing gear obviously on you guys can see that and it took off from the ground really well now We are super blessed with a very smooth runway, but let's see. Can we do an actual touch-and-go with this? Is awesome now I just am a goober with the stunt button in the beginning of the video I kind of struggled with so let's try again I think I just need to be a little more hands-free get it into Hold there we go. Yeah, hold stop flicking and there we have telemetry too Which tells us low battery and that's a good thing for newer pilots. We're struggling. We're struggling I'm fighting it. I'm it's one to come. Okay, there's a durability test It's beeping the jet is beeping in the transmitter are both beeping Okay Now that's actually really cool. None of our small warbird planes do that. It's just muddy but otherwise it's in perfect shape because the nose of this jet is Rubber see so it's designed to take a hit like that, especially on grass So it got a little muddy. We've seen some combat But I love that that beeps because a lot of times people will lose There are seaplanes or jets especially beginners and this flies so quickly a person could lose it a little more likely than all those like P-51s and Corsairs that we've seen on the channel through the years This beeping is awesome because if it goes down in tall grass or in the woods or something You can find it when it beeps like that. This has it all and the really cool thing is it's not underpowered I would love to tell you a price for this jet, but I cannot because now Everywhere it's not just one website where we will have this linked everyone has Smart pricing or whatever you want to call it supply and demand if they see traffic on their website the price goes up So we try to get you guys Content we've seen we saw an RC helicopter that hit our channel a couple weeks ago yellow That was actually like eighty five ninety dollars. Would you believe that is 175 now? Isn't that crazy after we posted after we posted the video it got a little bit of traffic and boom the price Doubled doubled that's wild. I'm I'm not for that for any company. I think prices should be consistent Pretty flat rate then they go on sale for holidays or something And then you know if the price has to go up on a product it can go up five ten bucks down the road Or whatever, but I hate dollars. Oh, I hate the fluctuating pricing. It's horrible I'm impressed with this, but I want to set a very realistic tone Probably not a good first RC plane all of the bells and whistles are there to help you It could be a first if you have a nice open location to fly or something But I think that the already existing Hobbyist will probably be the person that buys one of these because it has hobby grade performance And I am impressed with that a true EDF That is very cool on a 2s ready-to-fly setup if you've never owned an EDF This could be a really good first EDF to get a taste of speed because it definitely flies faster than those warbirds and because I'm Flying fast. I want to highly recommend flying with AMA It's the Academy of model aeronautics their insurance for those of us that fly RC planes drive RC cars boats and race RC Drones that cover helicopters as well anything under the Sun that is with RC AMA covers So if God forbid this would have flown through a parked airplane up here or a parked car or something Or someone's window or someone gets hurt in the hobby AMA steps in and I've seen it personally with friends They've had their shed where they keep their RC batteries catch on fire. God forbid. It's awful, but it has happened I've known people that this has happened to and AMA has stepped in now They didn't have a full replacement of the entire hobby of his whole collection But they did have enough money back for him to replace his transmitter charger and a couple airplanes now that's pretty cool if you ask me so AMA is The less than the cost of this RC and they'll be linked in the description box below Next to the link where you can pick this up and this is a very new release just so you guys know It's only on a few different websites right now So be sure to pick one up because they probably will sell out this type of thing goes pretty quickly on their first release This is a good one I'll say a massive thanks to God for blessing us with the time to jump in front of the camera and share this experience with You guys finally a nice calm evening with although we have clouds rolling in it is a beautiful sunset up here Just in time to get out and enjoy the hobby with you guys I'm so thankful and grateful to him for all of his blessings and I hope that you guys are Getting it getting a feel a taste of some of his blessings today as well and last but certainly not least I want to say a massive Thanks to our patreon supporters because we couldn't do what we do as often as we do without your insanely awesome support if you love Ready to fly RC things. We'll have a handpicked video popping up right about now just for you. Thanks for watching. We'll see you there
