This looks like a great plane in your hands?
Hi Andrew, what RX did you use when you flew before installing the Kopilot?
Looking at the shape of the plane, the question is not “can it slope” but: “can it DLG”? (I guess not with those fragile wing tips). Awesome review as always!
I want to get into FPV and I’m not sure what to get to get started do you have any suggestions.
Andrew I would have to agree that it is a great designed plane for sub 250g flying.
Now that we have more of these to choose from they will change the rule to sub 200g!
It does need some colour though as it is very hard to see all white. I would need to wear my magnified glasses to fly it without FPV.
My wife said to me that I have too many planes, I told her she has too many shoes!!!
Cheers mate
Ok numbe1.
If I purchased the FVP version of this plane could I record the video of the flight without actually flying it using the FVP googles
I’m guessing you like this little plane Andrew…lol..
Beautiful plane & so well presented with each segment #1. Does the FPV version require a receiver? Thanks mate.
Looks like a great FPV park flyer. My Talon GT is (ahem, theoretially) good for 20km+ range but it’s pretty bland in close quarters. ZOHD’s stuff is really well thought out.
Great video and review. Thank you. My Zohd Drift is on order.
What flight times are you getting with what battery? I have a few 3s 850mah which I think would be great and I am hoping for around 5 minutes power on.
Hello! Sorry for the immodest question, how old are you?
Hi Andrew dose the 400 fpv camera plug in to the aux on the kopilot or do you power it from another source
I love it! Thanks for all of your experienced opinions! You should see how long it can fly with two 18650 batteries! Just leave it in RTH mode and keep an eye on the voltage.
Never could understand these models that leave one of the control surfaces out (no rudder or no aileron), it’s a big deal breaker for me…
Nice video
Love id
This kind of plane design is great for mapping missions, easy to assemble and transport.
Of course, the size is too small to fit a camera, but if ZOHD made a bigger version of it.. I will be keeping a close eye on ZOHD and see what else they will be launching in the future.
