  • jim_c (and others)- Are you still flying your RVjet? I recently flew mine for the first time using settings from another large wing I have. It didn't fly as great as I would like, so I'm going to try your param file. Thanks for sharing. One question, how do you have your APM mounted? Mine is currently on the red RV mounting plate it came with. It seems this is too loose and might be causing more problems than helping vibrations. thanks!

  • Parameter files are at the bottom of the article.

  • Yes thats right, my target is to find airframe that capable of lifting 2 x 5000mah battery and achieve at least 1 hour for aerial survey with long mission plan. any suggestion are welcome..

  • Hi Jim,
    What is the flight time with those battery?
    can we add more battery to achieve more flight time?
    Thanks.

  • 100KM

    I also would like to buy RVJET, I wish they can ship the item from their China factory to save shipping cost. But so far no reply from RangeVideo. The 3 to 5 amp cruise current consumption is very promising for long range flying.

  • Hi all I am owner of the 2 models and RVJET X8, I tell them my experience. difinitivamente the RVJET is a far superior model to the X8 almost every way, the X8 just exceeds RVJET in payload capacity, the RVJET is a wing which he worked hard in the aerodynamic design. the design itself, not just to look good. enters the RVJET not lost aerodynamic (stall) flying at low speed. the X8 if you have this problem (very serious), The RVJET is much easier and stable in your hand lanzameinto. the RVJET has PAN and TIL for the camera, which in my opinion is a masterpiece of design and engineering. the parts fit very accurately RVJET the RVJET flight is very precise, as if on rails, the X8 has problems part settings. in conclusion the RVJET is a far superior model to the X8 in all aspects.
    my opinion is an informed choice, I am owner of the two models RVJET and X8.
    greetings to all

  • @adam, i want to have the RVjet Black ($325) packet sent to New York (USA) to my air cargo agent. who will ship it to my country. i am not able to purchase through your website because it does not takes billing adrresses outside USA. pls send a paypal invoice including shipping upto new york and i will pay through paypal. i am located outside USA.

  • Zedtwitz, it's OK, everyone has a right to price his product. only the promoter knows how much effort and money has gone into research and development. i think RVjet is a very good design. i know people paying $1000 for a pair of shoes which to my knowledge should not be costing $20. R&D matters a lot in flying objects. there is no compulsion on anyone to buy RVjet. One can always buy X-8 from HK.

  • I have 1 RVJET combo left in black if anyone is interested.  I will keep the price at $325.00 throught the weekend. ORDER HERE Combo includes- Airframe, 2 set of wings, 4 metal gear servos, hardware, isolation mount for autopilot, 2 GoPro mounts, 3 clear domes, 70 A esc, 1200kV motor combo, carbon fiber prop and aluminum spinner.  I ship FedEx ground with tracking same day payment is received.  Shipping is only to USA at this time due to the high prices to ship internationally.

    PM me any questions.
