Yipee!!! It's October!!! :-)

[WalneySkyland]

is there any news about the release date of the Icon A5 yet?

[HorizonRCdotCom]

@WalneySkyland Looks like Mid-October is the latest update

[WalneySkyland]

@HorizonRCdotCom Thank you I'd been hearing lots of rumours about it being put back till November.

[HorizonRCdotCom]

@WalneySkyland Have not heard that but I will follow up

[WalneySkyland]

@HorizonRCdotCom DIDN'T DO A VERY GOOD FOLLOW UP DID YOU IT IS MID NOVEMBER AFTER ALL

[Raptor50aus]

Excellent I can use the UM Stryker lipos in my UMX Beast

Also no more brushed Ultra Micros for me, too many motor failures.

Stick with brushless.

[JDALSystems]

I know this vid is not about the larger F27Q, but since the designer of it is here i will post none the less.

I am thoroughly disappointed in the new F27Q compared to the F27C.

The build quality is so cheap, Things are done that just make no sense.

#1) surface horns are glued on!!! what were you thinking.

#2) surfaces not replaceable like old one.

#3) Notches in leading edge of wing for catching grass

Seriously, learn how to design a plane.

Yeah I have to admit that a um habu would be really intense and it would boost parkzones sales... Hey are you guys at parkzone getting the idea? HINT HINT!!

[MrJasperDaniel]

I really love the Icon A5!! Are you going to do an instructional video how to install the optional lights set??

[HorizonRCdotCom]

@MrJasperDaniel Odds are pretty high that we will but there aren't any plans at this time.

[hamsterwing]

Micro habu!!!!! Thumbs up if you agree!!!!!!!

[realtvnow]

Any FPV specific airframes in development?

[realtvnow]

So glad to see more late model airframes being offered...nice job!

Great video guys:D

[ograymare]

Micro parkzone habu would be cool

[photobart1]

The Stryker looks interesting but for 160.00 I would put that money towards a larger plane. The price is way way to high for that kind of plane. I will pass on this micro. I am sure a lot of other pilots would agree with me on your price being to expensive.

[MultiBaset]

awww Love it, 

[unclefester420]

Okay Gary I cannot wait till OCTOBEER for a review of the PZ ICON!!!! GIMME GIMME GIMME!! I can take the one off the bench for you if you don't mind LOL

[RobscoRC]

Icon A5! I see a new FPV plane coming

[flyingchimp99]

UMX HABU!!!!!!!!!!

[flyboyfx]

I can't wait for the ICON A5!!!!!!!!

[RealCujo]

Cool planes coming up. I will have to beat a dead horse and say Parkzone/Eflight please make a A10. You guys are the only ones I trust to do the A10 justice. In the mean time I be picking up that mini stryker, great job keep up the great work!

[wyattrubin]

i don't think i could love quique any more than i do now.

[kangsterizer]

holy moly micro striker WHY my wallet hates you.

[schooner2000]

There is no new DX8 setup for the F27Q in the file mentioned.

[HorizonRCdotCom]

@schooner2000 Good catch, it will be up soon. If you'd like the setup e-mail me via the link in the "More Info" section and I'll send it to you. In the meantime we're working on getting that file updated.

[HorizonRCdotCom]

@schooner2000 the setup file has been updated and the F-27Q is in there. Sorry for the delay

[matthewdiscovery1]

that a5 looks really good for fpv flying

[startazz]

Yeah nice one HH/PZ as you boys have brought out loads of sweet planes so far this year ;-) so keep up the great work and this is one mental video this week Gary ;-)

[HorizonRCdotCom]

@startazz Normally mental is a bad connotation Ian, I need some context here.

[startazz]

@HorizonRCdotCom Nope not over here Gary it's meant in a good way ;-) well in the context i put it in mate.

[minameisjake]

could you in your videos say a price in usd gbp and euro

[HorizonRCdotCom]

@minameisjake The prices are in USD. Because the exchange rates can fluctuate it would be near impossible to put international currencies in there and have them be accurate for any length of time.

[minameisjake]

YOU NEED TO MAKE A ULTRA MICRO HABU

[paintballx123]

im so getting the mini stryker

[slyfoxflyer66]

darn, right as I preorder the spit.
