At the time of releasing this video, this rc plane is on sale for $70 (click USA warehouse). Because of that, we have to recommend it just because the price compared to the performance is definitely worth it. We have never seen an rc PNP airplane this big with the electronics (except receiver, transmitter, and battery) for this cheap! What an awesome deal. Let us know your thoughts in the comments.

Prop Update: I flew this again after this video and switched the prop direction again and it flew MUCH Better than what we showed in this video. Apparently I had it correct the first time, when I launched it into the ground. I just didn't have enough throttle and elevator on that initial launch. I don't believe this needs a more efficient prop as I discussed in this video. In fact, this thing flies amazingly well and sounds much better with the prop on the correct way. I overheated my ESC in this video, but didn't damage it permanently. The pulsing we heard was the ESC telling me to lay off for a minute so it could cool off. Pusher prop planes are amazing, that they can fly with the prop on either way. Be sure to test yours with a strong throttle blast before taking off. If it's not pushing very hard, unplug your flight battery, reverse that prop and try the other way. This plane is 100% a steal at that price, and even around $100 or so is an amazing price in our opinions! Happy Flying!

Forget about the numbers, a lot of props don't have them at all. The rule for deciding how to fit the prop is: the convex side ALWAYS has to point in the direction the plane flies. If you are wondering what convex means, think of a spoon. The sugar goes in the CONCAVE surface, and the bottom side is CONVEX.
I just bought this plane for $86 shipped took about a week. Gonna slap a 6040 prop on and send it :-)
Props are always installed (Pusher or puller) with the curved side facing the direction the plane is to go. You cannot get it wrong. ;-)
And, she ships from the US!
Those clouds!!
You owe this plane a second video.
Most props have numbers/letters printed on them , the numbers/letters need to face the direction of travel ( front of the plane ) .
I just don’t know why you dint check which way props on by feeling where wind of props blowing when throttled 🤔lol 👍🏻
Bought one of these a while back for $59 but it shipped from China. Two months and a completely demolished box later I got it and was still able to put it together. Flies awesome and it’s definitely awesome that it’s shipping out of the US.
It looks like a great plane, especially when you put the prop on correctly. :-) You should do a followup flight with the other cockpit and put a camera in for some FPV video!
Can I add a DJI o3 air unit on it?
The prop is backwards
I hate this guy cause he says its $70 but when i get to the website its $182.99
Do you like the Sky Surfer X8 1480mm over the Volantex Ranger 1600?
Which would you recommend. Sky Surfer or Volantex Ranger 1600?
The maiden flight was carried with the prop on backwards hence the weird noise.
your a great couple you two whose reviews are noted by many and let me say I have followed you for as long as I can remember, Iam pleased to see you are still making great honest video reviews.
The plane is plastic or hard foam?
Sounds more like a tie fighter at points lol.
