This is a flight video of my Hobby King Lancaster in high wind. This plane is really cool, but if you decide to buy it, which I'd recommend, please do yourself a favor and get stabilization! This plane is a real handful, and with short retract landing gear, which look AWESOME, it's super easy to break off the props of the inside and outside motors...so do yourself another favor and order like 3-4 sets of the props when you order your plane. I used a Lemon-RX receiver which is 7 channels with stabilization. The plane used to have a steerable tail dragger, but after a rough landing, the servo blew out, so I said - screw it, and took off the control linkage and used the Rudder channel to make differential thrust instead. WOW what a difference! First of all, 0 degree radius turns, second of all, YAW CONTROL on a bank and yank platform - GLORIOUS! By the way, when you are deciding if you want to cut in physical rudders and used 2 5g servos on the vertical stabilizers, keep in mind that they and the wingtips WILL strike on a generally good landing...so you'll want to make accommodations for this. Another kind word of wisdom, don't fly it slow. She'll tip stall like a banshee! It is the Version 2 as mentioned in the title. I guess years ago, Hobbyking offered this model with all sorts of bells and whistles...gear doors, rudders, bomb bay doors, etc...now it's just a more simple bank and yank version, so that it's lighter (aka - it's cheaper to manufacture, duuuhhhh)

It is a really cool plane. Scale looking, if you watch in super-slow motion...but really, a cool plane!
