I'll add too, the various videos on UA-cam, showing takeoffs with the H1 flight controller, launching off the ground, suddenly, didn't happen on my Airwolf as I fed in positive pitch very slowly and carefully. As you can see it settled about a foot off the ground. Landings are just as gentle. This is one very well sorted helicopter. Towards the end of the 2nd flight I barely touched 1/4 stick deflection showing that this Heli would have some serious speed at full stick deflection. Impressive!!!
Nice video of a sweet bird. I love FlishRC helicopters. IMO...they are the best in the business. I currently have 15 Flish helicopters and they all fly as good as they look. Congrats!
@@StingraysVideos Thank you for sharing. I can definitely see why you have that many. They really are at another level. Flish as a company are run well. Their aftersales service is sensational.
Completely agree, I almost bought the Flywing version. Solid helis in their own right. After I discovered the FlishRC version being nearly double the size, Being 500 sized v's 450, The scale guns and retracts I felt it was worth the asking price. It's quite a big heli in person.
Please post another video when you have the nav lights mounted and possibly talk high level on what you needed to do to get them in. I will be ordering this puppy soon!
I plan to...Cheers for the comment!! I've ordered the light kit from FlishRC with the nav light lenses. Problem is that the fibreglass where the tail position light and the left and right position lights are, on the sponsons, is rather thick so if I mounted them from the inside there's going to be a fair amount of material removal required if they're going to be visible from the outside. That could go south very quickly if I'm not careful. 5mm straw hat LEDs. Runs off a spare RX channel.
@@michaellui74 yes beginners can fly it in GPS. 3D needs a lot of practice on a sim before you fly for real. Check the link in the description. Cheers for the comment.
@@michaellui74 They fly just like a drone (DJI for example) easy as. Difference is you choose mode 1 or mode 2 depending on what you're used to if you've flown model aircraft before. It would be easier to find a drone channel that's more professional than I am lol. Just a heads up with this big heli. Remember each blade is almost 500mm long spinning at 2000rpm..... It can kill. Cheers for the sub!!
This is awesome, can u run through all the mods u did please? Painting blades? Smoked glass etc. Is this good for beginners? I only fly drones but so want an airwolf
@@maximusvr46 Too easy. No mods needed for flying it out of the box. Tail blades were painted using Tamiya PS-1 white polycarbonate paint is much more flexible. Main blades were masked off so the bottom doesn't get painted. I used Tamiya TS-26 pure white with TS-16 yellow for the tips. The tinted windows are TS-71 smoke. Go very easy with the smoke.. multiple very light coats. It's as easy to fly as a DJI drone in GPS mode. Everything you see in the vid is how they arrive. Ready to fly.
@@maximusvr46 One thing I'll add.. each blade is near 500mm long.. spinning at 2000 RPM. These helis are very dangerous in the wrong hands. They're expensive but in my case totally worth the money. Personally.. get an rc simulator for your PC and practice with a 3d helicopter (the transmitter plugs right in so you dont have to get another controller for your PC or laptop...so you have at least a little backround skill.
@maximusvr46 I've got a few like Real Flight, and Phoenix. Aliexpress has a setup that includes 4-5 sims in one bundle with cables and USB dongle with CD for installs. Easy setup. Yes it recognises the controller.

Nice. I would like to see scale counter clockwise rotation and tail rotor on the left side like the full size Airwolf.
Same... pretty tough to find though, except for micro helis.
Lovely looking model mate! 👌
The GPS sounds extremely helpful.....especially with my flying skills!
Looks great in action!
👍 👍 👍

@@steveblackbird Totally agree!
Much nicer than the Flywing version I must admit. Guns look great and retracts..

Great video 👍love this airwolf tv show growing up. How much did airwolf cost USD?? Can begginer fly this airwolf?? Thanks 🙏

@steveblackbird great advice thanks, which rc sim do u recommend? Is it just usb into the pc with the RC? And its recognised?

Hi, i have one myself and like your white blades. Where did you buy the white blades?
@@riaangeldenhuys6937 I painted them using tamiya spray paint.
