- Hey guys! We know you did not see this one coming! We got this 70mm Viper for a meager price from a friend in the local Central Illinois Society RC Club@Justineworden, and wow, what a jet!! This thing is absolutely amazing!! No stabilization is needed, although it would be beneficial to have on a switch, so that might be something we will add in the near future. Overall, we flew with 100%, and she was absolutely amazing! @HorizonHobbyProducts
We have to watch out for the snap on the landings!! We will give her more power the next time around!! We also featured The KM MODEL RC AFTERBURNER, which you can purchase below! It is amazing and completely aerodynamic for any EDF!

Keep it coming , keep it coming , dam you good
Classic PIO from my observation
LITERALLY my favorite overall jet. Best bang for buck in jets. Achilles heel is nose gear. Bends to left super easily. Easy fix via upgrading your stringer nose gear. But I have over 100 flights on mine
I like this video....thanks for your efforts!
Keep having fun and take care of stalls on this small one. I have ordered the big and the small Vipers from FMS xD
If you liked the 70, you'll love the 90 and prob won't fly the 70 again. It's easier to fly, flies faster, flies slower, and less tendency to snap roll but you still have to watch your bank angle at slower speeds. Can't wait to see you have the 90 up in the air bro
All the Vipers are amazing. I wouldnt say best first EDF but definitely a good trainer once youve advanced past the Marlin or some other 64mm.
O boy nice flight that landing though needs work lol
Wow I literally flew my 90 today I guess it’s viper season , great maiden my guy 🔥💪🏽💪🏽
The Viper is one of tge best all around sport frames there is. Great high and low speed characteristics, capable of plenty of aerobatics, slows down well, and has great gear for grass. Congrats shes a great one.
Way to go Team Hamilton! It has that hoppy tendency on touchdown, but you'll have that figured out in no time. 👍💥
Definitely man thanks for watching!
The 70mm E-flite Viper will tip stall in a heartbeat. I think the gyro makes it even worse because it doesn't know to keep the ailerons centered when the plane is about to stall. It's not a good first EDF for a low-time pilot. The 70mm E-flite F-16 is much more forgiving in the air, but will tip over easily on the ground with its narrow landing gear. The 80mm Freewing Avanti S is a good first EDF as is the 80mm FMS BAE Hawk. The 80mm Freewing L-39 is another good one.
I’ll take it! No damage is always a win on a maiden.
My viper lives on in my yak 130. And that motor made the yak so much faster .
Very nice. Love mine too
Nice bruh keep doing yo Thang
Awesome, man, I had 2, and I miss it, lol. I might get one of the newer ones, but I'm trying to stick to my guns because I want the 90mm, but it's nice to be able to toss in the car and roll out.
Definitely she fits right in the the car perfect! Thank you for watching !
Fun bird, just watch out for the low speed snap wing stall..
Definitely! We will try her with no flaps next time!
@hamiltonshangar the 90mm is a much better experience than the 70mm
Not sure why that is... but the 90mm is a keeper. Have you tried the 70mm Yak-130 from FMS?
Nice maiden
well done
Been looking at that one myself
Been flying my 64. MM Futura and looking at getting my first 6S Jet
I say don’t land with flaps, It was to floaty. Good flying though, yall keep it up.
Che great maiden of the Viper 70, fantastic video Ashley zoom zoom zoom Jeff in LA USA
Hell ya Hamilton and Ashley!!! I'm so excited to see y'all homie!!
Looked good, fun little plane to throw in the trunk and get to the field! 🙌🏼
nice flight Che & Ash Happy Flying~~
Huge win on that one! 💪🏾💯
Was a great flight Che, at least it was hi just a little tail bend 👍🏻
That's a win brother!!!
Score!! Great flyer, my buddy Joe has this jet and he rips up the sky with it, good job guys 👍
That was sick man hell yeah! 💪
Thanks man!
nice flight, i believe your approach was to high and you flared to early... but over all great flying
Got my vans on but they look like sneakaz!!!
Where ya flying out of bay area?
Looking good Che!
Thanks man!!
😎👍👍...
Thanks for watching man!
Good maiden yawl!
Dont use the down elevator mix stated in the book. Make the nose push down hard and start "bucking" on touch down...
Thanks man we didn’t use any mix for this she was coming in real nice!
Maiden flight ? No range check ? I've never seen you do a range and gyro check on any of your maiden flights. No preflight or post flight checks either. I should have watched your video to the end.
Those happen off camera sir. Thank you for watching!
And I always do the preflight checks on camera, you can see the surfaces moving before we take Off and as soon as she’s powered
Vipers are great planes, and, landings are like farts, if you have to force them, they are probably shit.
lol!! Thanks for watching man!
