Imo that reptile dragon is the best of them wish they would do a V2 built for hd. The penguin second, excellent plane. I didn't care for the sword fish mainly because I can't see the thing when flying LOS. Curious to see what you think of the new one.
The RDV2 is my favorite. I'd think you could come up with something to stick HD in it. I've seen a few set 3d printed noses on it. I use it as my long range sled, so it just has the rush tank solo max in it and it is also my only plane running 915mhz.
I think the swordfish flies a little better, but the altus has more payload capacity, breaks down smaller, and is more easily vtol'ed. I'd pick the altus if I had to choose just one as they do fly very close, but luckily I don't have to choose.😁
A compass isn't usually used in a wing. The flight controller knows which way it's pointed, so put the GPS in the normal spot and just skip the compass wiring.
Yes, you'd normally not need one, but for VTOL they are nice. Given the fact I am about to start cadding some VTOL stuff up.... it will be a nice addition.
Thanks for the comparison, look forward to flight video.

Nice planes! I really want know your opinions between the swordfish and Altus, as they are very similar!

@@burkeomatic7859 😆😆😆Yeah,Buy them all!Thank you
Have you had issues with the wing screws one of mine strip out sitting it down
I had one that acted like it wanted to strip, but I just took a tap and chased the threads in the wing to clean it up.

It does matter for VTOL flight however as this airplane has been set up for a future option for VTOL.
