AXN Floater-Jet first flight

this is first flight of the AXN Floater-Jet from hobbycity.com.
it is an arf model, it comes with servos and motor pre-installed. i was using ZIPPY Flightmax 1800mAh 3S1P 20C battery which fits and balances perfectly.
weather condition was harsh, strong gusty winds and subzero (-5 c) temperature. my hands really hurts afterward.
landing were a bit steep because plane go overshoot and i didn't wanted to be drown in the snow while getting her back. this part can be done better ;)
plane itself is very satisfying, it surely have some small flaws (one of them is flimsy wing attachment system, i will mount a pair of neodymium magnets here to strenghten lock a bit), but overall it is a great flyer nonetheless.
it can be flown well even by novices because of self-correcting attitude, strong epo foam and responsive and smooth control.

[felarfurlong]

@thegangsteraround , one aileron servo finally gave up after two years of intermediate flying and several ground kisses, was replaced with hxt900, others and esc still ok.

[felarfurlong]

@TRXracerZeka95 , да, шестиканалка, которая с компа настраивается. еще старой серии, с двухголовым приемником. загонял этот самолет в облака, почти видно не было, все управлялось нормально.

@TRXracerZeka95 дистанция у всех минимум поле твоего зрения. Около км. Конечно 9Х лучше, он с дисплеем то есть настраиваемый сразу на пульте.
