Tony Read 2 Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 I've got a FPV itch that wont go away, so I've been looking at the X8. Its got a 2.1m wingspan so is a good size, and is a pusher of course, but has anyone got any experience of this model? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bandit Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 There was a review on youtube by flitest, they are numpties but nice numpties dunno if you seen them before. **LINK** I want one, loads of space Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Read 2 Posted June 7, 2013 Author Share Posted June 7, 2013 Thanks for that! Yep, lil Josh can be a bit of a numptie, but they do entertaining vids. Interesting that they did not use a folding prop. Most other vids I have seen seem to show the model having a folding prop fitted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bandit Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 I find folding props a pain to balance so prefer normal for FPV, having said that I have a rubbish old glider with a folding prop that seems not too bad. I heard that if the brake is on on the motor the prop doesnt produce as much drag as when the prop is left to freely spin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
