Go Discover FPV Plane, and in Australia store!! $150 bucks

http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/__51559__HobbyKing_Go_Discover_FPV_Plane_EPO_1600mm_PNF_AU_Warehouse_.html

38072(3).jpgThe Go Discover was designed from the start to be a great FPV platform with a massive center bay, straight forward layout and superb, predictable, yet sporty, flight characteristics.

What makes the Go Discover stand out is the integrated pan and tilt system in the nose, giving an un-obstructed bird’s eye view of the world below. The pan and tilt system uses 2 gear driven engagements for a smooth solid camera platform. The pan and tilt system  was designed to perfectly house a GoPro 1, 2, 3 or 3+ as well as any other board or cube FPV camera with an easy swappable back mounting plate, all housed behind a clear acrylic dome. The front dome provides a great view, while protecting your FPV gear.

  • LOL since  GoDiscover most forums remind me "Spot the Difference" game. Some ppl spot 10 details and some spot zero ;)

  • The wing is completely different in several areas including the tip shape and the amount of reflex that appears to be in the foil section.  The RVJET doesn't appear to have very much reflex at all

  • Looks like an RVjet (the shorter wing span version) with most of the nice design details left out. I'd love to see a direct comparison.

  • When you take out the middle wing extensions from the RVJET, it really looks the same minus the slight vertical stab angle.

  • By that logic, the shipping costs on the aircraft are highly innovative. :-)

  • Well, it's not really a direct copy, but it's certainly "inspired" by the RV-JET.  The wing planform is different and the wing fences new and vertical stablizers are revised.  I'm not sure how to feel about them doing this kind of thing because there are many ways to skin this cat.  I guess real innovation costs money and you won't get it at Hobby-King prices.

  • It's a copy of RVJET, thats what it looks like anyhow  :-)

  • Why is it a copy because its got a plastic dome ? Without knowing im sure there are many other designs with a plastic dome up front, its hardly a breakthru.

  • sure original design will cost different.

  • does hobby king ever have any original designs?
