- BANGGOOD link - bit.ly/2L8N37j Beautiful big monster. Very efficient power setup, can carry heaps of weight, glides beautifully and would thermal with ease. Flying weight 2300g with 2 x 4s 3000mAH LIPOs. Minimum cruise on 3A to 4A, confident level flying on 5A. Climbs easily on 8A. Duration test - 30min used 1850mAH so this battery setup would allow 1hr 20min safely (landing gear removed) Needs rudder for smooth turns due to adverse yaw, big wheels only useful for smooth landing strips. Can easily takeoff from rougher ground with the single fuselage wheel. Hand launch OK if you have a decent throwing arm.

One of the sleekest looking platforms out there that not only lives up to it's reputation, but just looks right all round.
Enjoyed it. Received my plane 3 weeks ago. Looking forward to first flight now. Thank you!
I've been having a bit of a rough patch the last few days and for some reason your "some of the experts already here" made me laugh out loud. I really appreciate what you do. Don't ever stop making videos.
Another Volantex beauty! Guess we will be seeing this sloping soon! Think this will be on my Christmas list. Thanks for another great video, Andrew.
beautiful ..just beautiful for a gorpo and a sunset flying session
Wow, you made that maiden hand launch look easy! Thanks for the video
That is impressive on the ground and simply majestic in the air. Yep much better without the wheels but nice to have the option for those with proper flying fields. I presume that you will be sloping it at some point in the near future.. love it
The plane was a delight, but the music you used made me grab my guitar, and play along! I enjoyed this more than most, which says a lot!
Really good review, andrew! What a beast of a bird. I reckon it could thermal forever!
Great video Andrew! All of your efforts to enlighten us heathens is much appreciated! Amazing scenery! Merry Olde England on a sunny day, wow!
Thanks for the Amps draw!
Bought at spring Ranger-2000, after watching your videos. It flies great. But this one is a bit more interesting, if I bought it now, I would choose this one! Thanks for good review!
You've done it again, another top model and top flight. A bit of a letdown that there was no catching involved....lol. If I was a betting man I would say.....sloping next? I've got 2 maidens to do and the weather here in Scotland is foul at the moment.
Great review & plane!
Stoked to see this video, and posted the same day my V-R2.4k arrived in the post. No regrets and this one is going straight to the workbench for assembly. Looking forward to the now obligatory slope video. lol
Great maiden, you can see that plane a half a mile away! You need some wing bling LED lights for some night flying : )
Nice plane, all of the models, for relaxed cruising :-) surprising it took off better on one wheel? great vid thanks for sharing
Thank you for another great review! Although, l think a 1600 would suit my situation better, I really enjoy seeing these larger ones soar. Great time to be getting back into RC planes.
Looks like a joy to fly! I wish I had a floaty plane like this and a large enough space to fly it. I live in one of the most crowded cities in the world and I am stuck to smaller, more agile airplanes.
Hi Andrew,
