I just love that more manufacturers are making these 64mm 6S planes. I also want more Twin 64mm 6S planes. It's just great for the hobby to have more affordable 6S jets.
I think you need to do a head to head speed trial with the Flyfans L-39 and this Viper. At essentially the same price point the L-39 is a vastly superior 64mm model. Just watching the two videos it looks like the L-39 might have a 15-20mph speed advantage, retracts, and comes in what, 3 different liveries? Hard to beat.
The L-39 is more of a 70mm sized jet with a 64mm EDF. This is a dedicated 64mm and reflects it in size. L-39 is faster, but I feel like the flight envelope on the viper has the edge. Imho I could do it but it's not apples to apples.
@RCPlaneReviewer L39 is definitely a 70mm size plane, but using a 64mm fan. Just bought one a month ago and it's the same frame size as all my 70mm eflite and 70mm habu.
I Suppose this HK Viper is more a light Trainer. The L-39 is also on my bucket list but with the Freewing 2500KV EDF :))) Also it has lights but needs a bit more skill to fly and land without harming her … IMHo…
Cool! 👍🏼 I saw one on a video of ProWing here in Germany (Martin Pickering) and ordered it when the email around 10 days ago came immediately 🤣 let’s see how it goes
I added a thrust cone. It was lacking top-end speed IMO. I made it a 1/4 inch smaller at the end of the nozzle with a foam coffee cup. I pretty much made the thrust cone the same diameter as what came with my Flyfans L-39 Albatros 64mm EDF Jet. Probably gained close to 15mph. I love it. You can also use a cardboard tube for the thrust cone.
What can you say, its obviously gonna fly well just looking at it, as long as the CG is correct. Thats the first plane I've seen that size that recommends 2 batteries in series. 3S is very inexpensive, and common too. I use 2200s in a lot of planes.
I totally agree, I never have seen this lipo set up before in a model, I'm going to try a 3000mah and that should be good too. Excellent Lil bird and the price is affordable 👌
Awesome flight😁😃😎
Excellent flyer

Your right! I think they realized nit alot of people will buy big twins 80mm edf jets and the 6s lipos, the 64mm-70mm is a great market.
@@RCPlaneReviewer 1000% agree!
Hopefully they make a 50mm 6s

It's alot of bang for the buck!

Will it hand launch if you remove the wheels
Yesbit should definitely and I have a video of it coming
@@RCPlaneReviewer excellent, thanks look forward to the video
