    Its too bad they quit selling the non-rtf version. It was only $129, and still came with a Vector I think. I love this plane. I use mine for aerial photography. I'd definitely gift this RTF to any beginner. Its super durable, stable, and easy to fix with a little glue if you ever did break it.

    That was interesting. I think the Prodigy probably free glides better.
    Just like to ask if you have done a test on the Huntsman ( red and black plane ) it is a bank and yank only. But it does have a crash function if you are 10 meters up , hit the button and it falls out of the sky. Handy to bring down fast if need.

    @TheRcSaylors
    I was about to use your link to buy a full-size AeroScout S2 RTF, til I saw this video.
    Is there any reason to get the AeroScout S2 over the Prodigy or vice-versa?
    I got here because the reviews on the AeroScout's front wheel had me looking around and randomly saw this video. I have to takeoff and land from my hay fields (uneven fields but very long), front yard, or gravel driveway.
    I have no pavement, just a gravel 1/4mi driveway and large wide open fields.
    I like the idea of the bigger airframe in the prodigy, BUT... this is my first aircraft. I've only played (a lot) of flight sims and flown drones before.

    • @TheRcSaylors
      @TheRcSaylors  Рік тому +1

      The added benefit of the Aeroscout over the Prodigy is landing gear. Though in some cases that can be a hinderance. In your situation, hand launching might be better than trying to take off from rough grass, etc… Then of course there’s also price! Remember the Aeroscout now does NOT come with a charger and battery, so that is an added cost as well. Both brushless and 3S, and have flight stabilizers. Both similar capabilities! Your call at this point I suppose, but I do request that you order yours using our link, if you don’t mind. 🙏 Thank you! 👍😎💯⚓️

    • @GoFastOffroad
      @GoFastOffroad Рік тому

      @@TheRcSaylors DEFINITELY going to use your link! You both were the ones that keyed me into what to buy.
      I had read the nose wheel on the AeroScout was kinda weak. There are a few posts online about people taking the gear off and putting milk carton skins on the bottom to land on instead. lol.
      I was also worried that the AeroScout might be a little less powerful, and thus would be less fun after I had gotten the hang of things, and that maybe the prodigy would be a "longer term" aircraft?
      I actually think I may be able to use my charger in my basement that I have for my Traxxas Trucks I have a Hitec X2 AC Black Edition charger. The plugs look the same.
