  • I hope I'm wrong but I wouldn't get too excited about the flying characteristics of this model. The tail moment is *very* short, meaning it won't be very stable in pitch and the original BD5 (plus most of the models ever made of it) suffered from very bad tip-stalling at low speed or when subjected to high G-forces. Not at all what I'd call a good FPV design -- but I could be wrong.

  • @xjet well Bruce we will have to see what this plane can do. For now, I am always under the great impression that nothing beats Skywalker for its FPV Capabilities :D

  • Can't wait to see how it will work for FPV:D

    Thanks for all of your hard work Ali!!!

  • @realtvnow welcome, me too can't wait, but stuck in raining weather

  • what about grass take off with this plane

  • @xjet it's a model of the BD-5 though, so they have to have a short tail, or it wont be accurate.

  • The BD-5 is a real aircraft...look it up, its a tiny personal jet.

  • Sorry.. Wingload seems very low (same wing as the skywalker) and tail seems big enough to counter the short fuselage. Its like the Airbus 318: they made a shorter fuselage and enlarged the tail.. I hope.. ;)

  • Mine arrived missing the wingspar.. @xjet: wingload

  • @alishanmao when i check the uhf chainlink 30 km system......bevrc says it's sold out
