Skunkworks U2

Phase 3 U2 Electric ducted fan. I like this plane, but the quality needs a little to be desired. However, flies as well as you see here if fitted with a much bigger battery (see below). Foam construction with EDF. Wings flex in a satisfyingly scale fashion!
Servos factory fitted , this one was plug and play and pre-painted. Decals had to be applied.
6 minute flights easily on 2200mAh 3S packs.

Thanks. I have a 2200 3S that I am going to use. It should help it's some. I noticed after the flight that the ESC was hot. It probably could use a bigger ESC/BEC.

I kept costs down. I use 2200 mAh 3s but original ESC. I had one servo fail (elevator) and changed it like for like at a cost of about 3$ US as an experiment with cheep servos. Basically fly stock otherwise. I'll modify it after I bust it !!!!!! After 20 years flying I don't bust much now!!!! ;-)

Hi! Top speed can only be estimated at about 30 knots. This is essentially an EDF powered glider by its configuration. The supplied battery is to light to give good duration or good scale flying characteristics. Have you tried a larger battery in yours ? What do you think?

[@brooklandvideo]

Why, yes I did. But a bit of a harsh landing there I think! Hopefully no damage.

How fast do you think top speed is? I have not tried a high speed pass with mine yet

Did you check my channel and see my maiden?
