Jump to @15:00 for the successful flight
@ 3:55 for when it almost eats me alive ?
Before that I go through the maiden and tuning process if anyone is interested in how I problem solve what happened in the maiden. It was scary! Came so close to a massive crash but luckily managed to save it ? I didn’t get the tune perfect, in the end it was flying and that’s a win for me. Theory says this shouldn’t work, prop tips meant to be 1.5mach. Obviously it’s not hitting that, will definitely be hitting the current limiter on the ESC’s and most likely quite low actual rpm. That’s a testament to how solid APD 120’s are. Totally incredible that they could handle the tuning and none of them blew or even got hot! Definitely huge potential, the motor mounts I’ve got coming will make it fly amazingly so really looking forward to that 🙂
Thanks so much to my amazing sponsor HobbyKing for their support and to APD for their amazing innovation that enables this insanity ?

Love the buzz of 20″
Wow! Loved watching the tuning of this beast.
very nice bud can i ask how do you get the slow ramp up time of the motors when you first power up
wow, that is amazing!!. cant wait to see it screaming around. are the angled motor mount pointing in towards the centre?
Great vid. Very informative! Can you share your 12” 12s p I and D please?
Thumb up for your flying death machine
So exciting and interesting to see, thanks for sharing, fantastic video !
sounds like you got a fanbelt loose mate! ? amazing work dude! It looks terrifying lol
Great setup dude, so much fun to watch! Could we have a blackbox log?
Love seeing these giants fly. I have a nice set of motors for one, Dual sky 330kv 7010s. I want to build one but the lipos are just too damn expensive.
