In this exhilarating review by TheRcSaylors, they unveil the eflight SE 5A, a magnificent 900mm RC plane that exudes the spirit of World War I aviation. Priced under $300, this bind and fly aircraft boasts metal geared servos, allowing for precise control and maneuverability. The attention to detail is impeccable, with a pilot figure donning goggles and a machine gun mounted on top, adding a touch of authenticity to the experience. Assembling this beauty is a breeze, requiring no glue and just a few screws to put everything in place. The team showcases the plane's unique features, from its cool wheels to the functional tail wheel that enhances ground handling.
Taking to the skies, TheRcSaylors demonstrate the SE 5A's capabilities with a series of impressive maneuvers, including rolls, loops, and even inverted flight. The plane's performance on a 3S or 4S battery is commendable, offering both scale flying and a hint of aerobatics for added excitement. Despite some landing challenges due to its top-heavy design, the SE 5A proves to be a versatile and fun aircraft to pilot. The team's enthusiasm for this unique addition to their collection is palpable, as they express their appreciation for the aircraft's design and flight characteristics.
In addition to the thrilling flight demonstrations, TheRcSaylors share valuable insights on battery options, recommending a high-performance non-smart battery brand for optimal performance. They also highlight the importance of supporting their channel by disabling ad blockers and showcasing a useful sun shadow accessory for enhanced visibility during flights. Gratitude is expressed towards their viewers, God, and Patreon supporters, underscoring the community's role in their aviation adventures. The review culminates in a discussion on the FAA and the vital advocacy provided by the Academy of Model Aeronautics, emphasizing the need for continued support and engagement within the hobbyist community.
