Volantex F4U V2 Corsair Warbird Series 4 Channel RTF RC Plane Flight Test Review

This good looking and ready to fly fighter plane is a ton of fun for intermediate and above fliers. Find it here and use coupon code BG20cfc2 for 10 dollars off (exp 7/31/23) https://usa.banggood.com/custlink/vDD.... Fast and maneuverable, it can be flown fully gyro stabilized while still allowing stunt aerobatics. If you get into trouble in a stunt, just let go of the sticks and the plane will quickly and automatically level itself.

Pros
Very good looking aircraft in paint scheme and details. Includes a clear cockpit with pilot cutout inside.
Ready to fly plane with included transmitter.
True four channel airplane with throttle, elevator, rudder, and aileron control.
Constructed of flexible and crash resistant EPP foam.
Plenty of power from its 1020 brushed motor.
Comes with two 2 bladed and two 3 bladed propellers.
Three selectable flight modes. Beginner mode includes full 6 axis stabilization (3 axis gyro and 3 axis accelerometer). Also includes angle restrictions that prevent the aircraft rolling or pitching over. Intermediate "Midd" mode also includes 6 axis stabilization, but turns off pitch angle restrictions to allow aerobatic stunts. Expert mode turns off all stabilization for fully aerobatic manual flying.
Controller also includes a stunt button that allows the airplane to automatically conduct loops and aileron rolls.
NEW Auto Takeoff feature enables the aircraft to automatically climb to a safe altitude, and then circle until the pilot is comfortable and ready to take control of the plane with the pitch/roll stick.
One key return feature will automatically fly the plane in the opposite direction that it was pointed at takeoff.
Quick disconnect propeller saver automatically disconnects the propeller in a crash to prevent propeller or motor damage. Propeller can be quickly reattached after the crash to continue flying.
Very efficient flier. It's 3.7V 400mah battery can provides up to 15 minutes of flight time (I got over 8 minutes on a very windy day).
Can be flown with multi-protocol transmitters using V761 protocol. I demonstrate such in the above video.

Cons
Brushed motor airplane. Its motor will eventually fail some day. Strongly recommend allowing 15 minutes motor cool down between flights to improve motor longevity.
It's a bit heavier at 66 grams than its 55 grams predecessor. This is mainly due to the heavy use of paint (although it looks good).
I didn't get the full 15 minutes of flight time. This is likely due to the high wind I was flying it in, and the high throttle settings that I used to counter the wind.
