Multiplex Dogfighter: 183 km/h! Aerobatics and Combat

SPEED WAS MEASURED WITH A RADAR GUN!!! NOT AN IPHONE DOPPLER APP!! I know you people don't believe it because the math does not work but we have since tested this plane with 3 different brands and models of RADAR gun and all clocked the same speed.. Your doppler app is NOT accurate from this video. There are variables that will not allow it to work properly.

This is one hell of a plane. Multiplex makes some of the best foam airplanes on the market and this one is no exception. Those crazy Germans really know how to make a plane. This sucka is fast, nimble and rock solid! It handles anything thrown at it. We did manage to hit 196 km/h! thats enormous for a plane this size! Thanks to the OS motor and 3 cell hyperion battery its able to climb its way through any battle. Check this plane out at your local hobby store!

I watched a couple of videos of Dogfighter and I am becoming really fascinated with it. I just started into RC Flying and if I build one, this would be my first kit. I would appreciate if you could describe your setup in detail. What exact motor, ESC, battery, servos, type of linkages etc? Will the Dogfighter powerpack as sold by towerhobbies work? Is that motor good enough? Thanks.

@mamatalu I'll start this off bluntly.. The dogfighter should NOT. repeat NOT be your first plane. Or your second, even third! Its an advanced plane for advanced pilots.. YOU WILL CRASH IT! I can not stress this enough! Secondly, I never buy hobby parts online. If I can't get it at a hobby store I most likely will not buy it. I prefer quality. Im using an OS 25 size, 1200 kv motor, 50 amp Castle Ice ESC, 9x9 prop, and Thunder Power 3 cell 65c 2250mah packs. Hitec HS65mg Servos. NOT A CHEAP PLANE

That was some of the coolest RC footage I've seen! What motor would I use if I didn't want to go that fast? What is the eflite equivalent to what u used?

[RobscoRC]

@apodacainc Thanks! Power 25 would be the closest. Run it on a 4 cell and make sure you get the prop right. Use a prop calculator so nothing gets fried. Your probably looking at needing a 50 amp ESC. Goodluck!

WOW!!! +1 and then some!

Sign me up for the Corps...That thing was 'Spankin' It' BIGTIME!

Awesome video, nice job with the planes...

I love Multiplex, they are becoming my favorite RC airplane company...

Where can I get this plane?

[RobscoRC]

@axelsfolks HAHA thanks for your energy and kind words. I agree multiplex is an amazing company. You should be able to find one of these babes at any hobby shop that sells Multiplex or Parkzone. Remember this sucka is a kit, no ready to fly's. So have your wallet open to a sweet Motor Battery combo

[theleabres]

what is the all up weight with battery? sorry if you stated it before.

[PLANAutomation]

Don't you get sick and tired of the "no way it went that fast, I have a computer program that says so... wah wah wah". The same banal arguments go on with glow powered models. Not to say that there are not some exaggerated claims out there, but your is totally realistic and achievable. It's way cool, but there is nothing other-wordly or unbelievable about 113mph!

And RC combat IS a total blast! Even with Slow Stiks (full contact even better - bring tape!)

Wonderful video. I think I will buy one asap

wow, just 3S. Good work mate.
