- This is fun little amphibious plane but it's best when flown in calm conditions. I made the mistake of flying it when it was a bit breezy which is why it flipped over. The people in the canoes ignored me and didn't retrieve the plane which was a bummer. They clearly saw me flying the plane and saw it floating in the water but they made no effort to get it even when I yelled to them asking for their assistance. Oh well, lesson learned. If you are interested in this plane you can pick it up from Amazon for $63 after redeeming the 10% off code. amzn.to/4054KIt

We are ordering some next month, different brand. Lil d wants one, nice review Ryan.
It is a lot of fun but just be careful not to fly it when there's any wind or else you run the risk of it flipping over on the water like what happened to me.
@@RDsRCReviews yeah for sure, that’s when the paddle board comes out 😆

These things are wicked cool Ryan. Recently saw Quadcopter 101 testing 2 different brands of these that he got . Both of them worked really well. This one you have flies just as nice! Looks like so much fun to fly. Should technically work in the snow too
Right? if the wind is absent of course! I do really like these, just got to decide which one? 🤔😝
Did you get this one recovered?
Nice fun flyer Ry an!
Yeah I also saw QC101 reviewed a very similar one to mine that was sent to him from BG. That's why I was so excited to get this one from Deerc. No, I'm bummed. I wasn't able to get it recovered. The people in the canoes ignored me which is very strange as most people in my town are very nice. I was not happy. I guess I learned a lesson to not fly a plane like this unless it is very very calm. It really wasn't that windy but all it took was one big gust to flip it over which really sucked. Thanks for watching Robby!!
I've seen this model operate the props even upside down in water. Did you try that?
Did you end up recovering it?
I lost a quad copter in a tangle of branches once. Those guards on the ends of the arms, near the propellers... they really should be called tree hangers or something.
Unfortunately no, the people in the canoes ignored my request to retrieve it. I know they heard me and they had to have seen the plane in the water. I yelled to them and they ignored me. It was very unusual because most people in my town are very friendly. It's possible it was a couple from out of town. They were making their way back to shore too. I thought about waiting until they got closer and asking again but the fact they were ignoring me made me want to avoid talking to them once they were close enough that they couldn't ignore me anymore. Oh yes, I always call prop guards "tree hangers" in my videos because that's what they seem to be best for when used outdoors lol. Thanks for watching!!
You can control it like a boat when it's upside down, it's pretty slow but I manage to get my back to shore all the time. Put it on 1/2 throttle and steer like normal.
Yeah I know but there was no way it was going to move like a boat in that wind and those waves. It was too windy that day and I shouldn't have flown it
@@RDsRCReviews 162 / 5.000
My dear sailor, it's only a small pond, isn't it? I would have welcomed this wonderful bird on the opposite bank, where the wind would have carried it. Nevertheless, you showed what wind this toy plane can endure and whatwind you shall avoid - thank you, great job 💪🤠👍
@@MatthiasHorn-i1l it was not possible to get to the other side and who knows how long it would have taken to get there but I do get your point
I recently purchased this and now my propellers are spinning in opposite directions and I am stumped on how to fix it
that's odd. Sounds like it trying to steer if you mean one is spinning one direction and the other one the opposite direction. No clue, hmmm
@@RDsRCReviews It is like it is trying to turn. Also if u hit the throttle while it is flipped it will go forward
@@AidentheCuz sounds like it's screwed up!
Does anyone make a little bit bigger version?
Not that I know of
I bought one, but suddenly the prop rotation is backwards, so it won't fly.
Anyone know an easy fix??
DEERC tech support is stumped...😢
Try reversing the installation direction of the props. It shouldn't be too difficult
I doubt you can turn them around Because I’m pretty sure the motor shaft holes are only open on one side in the prop but maybe you got them on the wrong side because each side is a mirrored pitch
They probably gave you the wrong props, and you just need to install props with the proper twist?
@@BriannaBeastMode no the props were correct. There's just no way it can drive back upside down in the water with the wind and waves blowing it away from me. It's too lightweight.
@@RDsRCReviews Sorry, I meant for the person who said their controls are backwards now, probably got the left prop on the right motor and vice versa
Its a shame it flipped in the water at the end, looked like a decent little flyer considering the wind at times.
Yeah it's pretty good and it's obviously better when the weather is very calm. Sucks that people in the canoes didn't recover it for me.
I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but it says in the manual, I seen it say it even on the website that you can go slow while it’s upside down to retrieve it. I get that it was windy, but I almost bet it would have still made it back. Especially because it would be a cross wind and not directly blowing against it head on.
@@adamgallahan6747 zero chance it was going to come back driving it like a boat into the waves. The wind was blowing against the direction I needed it to drive back against.
I just got one and flipped it quite a distance from me, and it came back no problem. Steering was pretty decent too.
@@billwalker632 it didn't work for me due to the waves and wind. There's simply no way it can move the place in the water against waves and wind.
Doh - whenever you fly a seaplane you need a boat in case it goes in so you can get it back.
Interesting design and it seemed to fly well even fighting the wind. Suck it flipped and you were not able to rescue it! Find a rescue fishing pole next time!
I know, I didn't come prepared but I honestly didn't think I would lose it on the water that way. I was much more worried about it getting pushed away in the air by the breeze and having it fly away on me lol
@@RDsRCReviews yeah, kind of an odd flip so you had no time to make any corrections.
@@AddamsPlayground it was one big gust of wind that did it because it really wasn't that windy. Just had some occasional big gusts. I still don't know why the people in the canoes didn't offer to help. They had to have seen the airplane floating across the water and when I helped out to them asking if they could retrieve it they simply ignored me
@@RDsRCReviews yeah, that was not nice. Even if they were annoyed with you flying, I don't see why as you were not near them, but they could at least gone to get it to keep it from being trash floating around... Some folks are just not nice or thoughtful I guess.
@@AddamsPlayground it's bizarre because most people in my town are very nice and helpful so no clue why they ignored me. They were making their way back to shore too but I decided to leave before they arrived to avoid an awkward confrontation.
This is designed to be sailable like a boat. Hope you tried.
Yes but it couldn't sail back in the choppy waves and wind. That'll only work on calm waters
Good review Ryan.
Thanks! Just sucks it flipped over and I lost it in the lake lol
Did it stop responding once it landed upside down or did you just stop trying to control it cause om amazon for this it says that if it flips upside down you can still drive it back to you was considering getting this but now idk lol
It wouldn't respond at all. I don't see how it would be possible to flip it back over because the props are in the water some. There's no mention of this in the instructions. I suppose it might be possible to drive it but I couldn't see it was doing anything when I pressed the throttle. I don't think it could have overcome the small waves while upside down. It seemed as if it was doing nothing upside down
It says, on the website you can go upside down slowly to retrieve it
@@adamgallahan6747 but it doesn't work well especially when you are trying to drive it into choppy water. It might work on very calm water but no way it will work in choppy water.
@@RDsRCReviews most likely you’re correct because it says you have to go back slowly Unless you’re able to go not against the wind and not against the flow of the water and slowly come to shore somewhere else.
@@RDsRCReviews It is not self uprighting
