42" Vyper Bype

I flew the byper. Impression is that it's SUPER responsive. Like, ULTRA SUPER responsive especially in roll and yaw. I did a snap and wound up doing a perfect 1 and 1/4 snap because the ailerons are so fast. Looked very cool but scared me to death. Ha ha. In harrier it was rocking a little but that was totally my fault. It was my first flight with the girl and I didn't know what she likes yet. ;) A couple more flights and the rock would be gone I'm sure. Which pretty much sums up my impression of it. It is a capable plane that while being a little different than a monoplane, can certainly do all the same stuff once you get a little experience with it. No "bad tendencies", but a little different than monoplanes so expect it to surprise you a couple times.

I would love to add one to my hangar.

Do it!!! :D :D

Just out of curiosity, since the plane is really new.....has your friend actually flown one? or just based his opinion on something he saw?

Steve, my friend isn't just some guy who hangs around a few fields. He is a sponsored dude and national traveler. I respect his opinions and tend to follow his advise, I just am looking for a reason not to...this one time. lol

Hotay....:D :D Meant no disrespect to anybody, but you have no idea how many time I hear people say something is bad, when they have no practical experience with it. I know that I have personally said..."I have heard" or I have read" that something is not good, but only after hearing it from many sources, not just one person.

Sorry folks, but there will be no "passing along the giving"! HA!

I know of one young man (who shall go un-named) that was always saying he would "never" use Hitec servos....after seeing this many times, I PMed him, and asked him if he had ever actually tried any, he admitted he had not, but had read/heard that they were no good. I told him that is pretty much all I use (not that that means anything), and that many people use them and have no problems with them...I believe I read that he is now using them...and likes them... :D :D
