I've ben flying the Skyhunter for years and its my go-to platform. Best all rounder and just so reliable. I think most people in the Skyhunter community know mine by now :)
I just wondering is it possible to make it cruise on 5 amps... My plan is to run big prop, and do some modification to keep prop horizontal before landing...
It’s nice to see planes and boats on this channel! Keep up the great work man, you will grow more and more at this pace :)
Bro you're editing and production value is increased over the last couple months it's looking good
:)
Looking good for sure but sounds 🤢🤢
Great plane looks like a whole lot of fun. Thanks for the great video as usual!
Thank you for your time, effort and honesty reviews. 🤜🏻💥🤛🏻✌🏻
Congratulations! She's a beast man. Many vids to come with her I'm sure!!!
Huge plane. I'd almost be afraid to fly it! Thanks for the review!
Looking good. I only flew mine once last year, but I launched it from the ground which was short grass and it took off great. Happy Flying
This plane is definitely the stuff of dreams! Thanks for the review.
Great idea on adding those spars! What an awesome plane.
You are a legend 🙌 I'm going to put mine together this week. I'll make sure to sand the edges before gluing for sure
A great review, thanks for the time you took doing this regards Tony Australia
Video stabilization at its best. Smooth and relaxing.
Excellent Video, I Love your work. So keen to purchase one of these
Looks great excellent review as always...
Love it Justin, great plane for sure and great flying/review bro. Cheers:)
Good show DCRC. The Skyhunter 1800 is thee all around FPV long range mapper. It will never get old or fade away.
I agree ☝🏻 🏆🏆🏆⚔️⚔️⚔️
beautiful footage... smooth flying too.
That's one sweet plane. Nice work 👍
That is a rad plane! Thanks for the vid Justin!
Thanks TS! ~ JD.
Made a small one out of foamboard. I like it. If I needed a huge plane with a heavy payload this would be on the top of the list
Finally just got one of these big birds!
Great review
One of the holy grail for fixed wing FPV which I use as my go to long range platform. The Swywalker is arguably he God father of LRFPV -Aero
Flies good from bench to air. Just a little tuning and she be awesome. Thanks for video Justin. 👍👍
Yeah buddy! Merry Christmas to you Ted from the Davis family ~ !
Awesome you finished it!
Yeah buddy. Finally got her airborne. About 3 careful weeks of setting it up properly in my spare time and at night. Oh wait I have no spare time. :D
Cool review! Maybe after my son and I get decent at fpv drone flying, might try out planes. Propeller wings first, I think the wings are cool.
Merry Christmas!
Thats awesome yo !
That plane is CRAZY
That Plane is huge!
Great flight, Justin!! I've been lusting after this plane for years! Picked up a RMRC Stratosurfer recently. BTW, I think you meant to say, a farmer's "Combine." Merry Christmas!
Combine. Yep not Columbine. 😜 I’m from the beach gimme some slack 😊 haha. Merry Christmas Allen! Two more fpv wings just came in by the way. 😍
Totally get it, Justin! I'm an old "surfer" dude, too. Locked up in the Midwest surrounded by a bunch of farms... Looking forward to seeing the reviews on the wings! 🤩🤩🤩🤩
Excellent video. Thanks!
You’re welcome!
Real nice Justin.
looks like a great fpv cruiser!
Nice! Very cool plane bro. Thanks for the video.
You're welcome Brent. Merry Christmas to you and your family from mine. ~ JD.
@@dronecamps Same to you Justin.
Beautiful day to fly!
Nice relaxing lengthy flights are sooooo nice with fixed wings like this! Wow i thought my 900mm wing was big. Shucks thats huge
I do enjoy them. Just tricks, or stunts. Just flying.
I've wanted a full size sky hunter for years. Would love to deck it out with a Pixhawk, GPS and all the goodies. Too chicken though!!! < bawk>
thenks
I. Love your video really great job of flying l have on with no instructions but seeing this video has helped me l see mine is tail heavy so a 4 cell battery is probably what l need
Glad it helped! :) Please subscribe Thomas. :D
Nice pretty cool
Dope!
NICE flight, Tip, make te front camera turning. 😋
Amazing how far we've come in 30 years, a 6 ft. wingspan/ .40 size aircraft was a trainer,lol , Man I wish we had camera ability back then.
It can carry more capacity than most ebike batteries, that's nuts! In a good way :)
that is great really big indeed
You need extra caps on your esc. The motor is giving you lines in the video
Thanks
Nice 👍👍
nice one
Wow that is huge÷!!.
It’s like a mini Skywalker!
one your cg is off, a smaller prop should have been used for test flight. A real line of sight should have been your first choice. but great videl what motor did you you use?
I can't believe it!
Just subscribe seen other channels but really like yours like i said seen so many channels and always wanted to have a good awesome drone👍👍👍👍😀😀
Imagine how cool it is to have one of these or a decent drone as kid nowadays lol it would’ve been cool but would never have the childhood bike ride memories etc with your mates if we had this sort of tech lol
nice plane and video , but can you please tell me the software to turn video into the cartoon style at 7:45,
Can i upgrade the plane and make it a cargo drone for a maximum 5kg payload for delivery ?
Hello, what motor do you recommend for this plane? Wanting to do long range FPV and to be fairly quiet.
Another great video Justin, what wing would you suggest for a total newbie who has never flown one ?
Ken Simmons buy a cheap simulator off Banggood . first.
ZOHD ORBIT in the video description. All day. They even have a full outfitted fpv version. Or the add your own fpv gear. Comes with a mini stabilizer gyro also. 👍🏻
Drone Camps RC Thanks for all your great work and advice
Absolutely. My pleasure Ken. - JD.
How far will this setup go?
DEAR sir. can you tell me the distance your FPV plane is gone? thanks
Since it can carry a butt load of weight, would it be possible to run 18650 lithium ion batteries instead of lipos, get even more duration. 3kg =kwh roughly. Just unsure how many amps this plane motor needs
Has the pnp version an xt60 or xt90
How much did it weigh and how slow can it fly?
What is the maximam payload for this plane
How fast is it
what is this can you get 6s
Ok guys how much for evrything like the googles, fpv camera, controller everything
Wow
Nice video, thank you. Some of your links say sold out on bang good, can you update the links please!
I’ll try!
It is fast and big :)
How far can it fly
hello, I recently sold my phantom 4 drone to buy a teleguide plane and I really liked this fpv plane. As I am a beginner I am looking for either an easy tutorial to build a good plane or an already built plane. suggestions?
is there a tutorial to build this plane?
Orannge box bad..
Mph?
Das huge
What do you think about making this plane with carbon fiber??
I love my 8 year old SH
same!
This bird is next right after the next 3 pinball machines. Say June at the latest. Will add flaperons, rudder, and GPS.
Used to have a plane bur wasnt very good at it...
I have a random question about batteries I just checked the individual cells on one of my life pose and they're all reading out differently that's bad right
Just balance charge it unless one is stupid low like 2.0 or less
So it's a 4S and I checked it off the balance leads and I had some really weird numbers like 4 and 8 and 12
how for can you go with this setup? if you were not limited byt the battery capacity ;)
Depends on your ground station
When you say long range, what is the max range, in miles, could you fly away from base ?
Look up what the Russians on CZcams are doing with long range. You’ll be surprised at the range people can achieve.
Ok, thanks. Will do
do you need to have a license or something?
ugh ...only 3 channels... i hate that everytime i will try to turn its gonna lose altitude...
You could put rudders on it.
An 1800 isn't gigantic, you can but rtf Radian XL it is 2400
1800 is normal not gigantic
Paul Barnett Can you carry 25000mah in a Radian?
That would justify my crossfire ;-)
Absolutely and then some ;)
Tinyhawk
100 min flight time?!? Stop taking my money!
Someone help me find my wallet! It grew legs and fleed from me
Lol it must be hiding out with mine...or the woman hid it when you started watching these...😁...tell her it can be cheaper than a motorcycle...way safer 🤔...she has to agree...xmas is almost here, I got a radio and battery outta it already 😀 play that card...🤣
wow, 100min flight...
Cool plane. White airpolanes for bystander videos just suck. Can't see shit unless you were within 50 meters on the screen. She;s a big girl, color that w_h_re up! lol Good job Justin. Jeff
Sometimes I leave them white so hunters have less of a target 👍🏻
how is hand launching. Im not the best handlauncher, my nano talon evo can back that up, wreaked in tis box. Id prefer the 1.2m skyhunter but not instock anywhere other then china bangood and its overpriced kit
Well it’s kind of like throwing a javelin. You have to commit with your whole body and arms. Throw it level. NOT straight up. Less learned by me with a crash. More than once.
is it even legal..lol
