You nailed it. Don’t fly scared!! You’re way more likely to crash. But don’t ignore fear either. We experience it for a reason. Very nice video too!! Just wish it looked different. Looks like a Habu trainer. Waiting to see you do the new fms Avanti 90!

Great review! I love how aggressive the Zeus looks compared to other sport jets - fuselage resembles a F-20. Kinda wished FW made the F-20 instead🙂

Who let the Zeus Loose? Everyone knows it never is on its best behavior. It's always busy being a rebel. This video is just more proof of that. I don't blame Zes I like to cut loose sometimes, too.

Great video as always Jon! Would love to see you fly the eflite F-16 so more with instruction on CG placement and the type of battieres you use in yours, I have 3 F-16 4 actually 3 80mm and 1 , 70mm just waiting to maiden each , it’s just been so darn hot!! 🥵 Happy flying and keep the videos coming because they are great!!👍🏻

I see no one mentioning about the Motion quoted speed of 150mph the 8s could hit flat and level ? I am not seeing it with mine, but I do love flying the jet, it is fast.
@TwoBrosRC

We don't really care about speed aside from whether something flies fast enough to be considered "fast" in the sky.
@jamesonclark5854
Ай бұрын
It it pretty well documented by many Zeus owners that the 8s version is a true box stock 150mph jet. Mine is 149-155mph each time I have done speeds runs with it to check it. If you aren't seeing those kinds of speeds, make sure you have calibrated the throttle and that your lipos are up to the task! You can't ask for extreme performance from the jet if you are sticking sub-par packs in it!

Great and honest Jon! Would you choose this one over the Viper 90mm? Looking to get a new sports jet and debating between Avanti 80mm/Zeus 90mm/Viper 90mm :)
@TwoBrosRC
Ай бұрын
Would Jon choose this over a Viper? Nope - because Zeus doesn't high alpha. But Viper won't do that without extensive work. Zeus flies better overall, is faster, and is more tumble-oriented. They're both great jets, but Zeus wins overall in terms of scoring. Viper would be dinged for stickers bringing its F&F down to 4/5 points - but we're talking about a jet that would score 23/25 instead of 24/25. They're both amazing options.

When landing a sport jet, do you find yourself oscillating the throttle with consistent elevator input or consistent 1/4 qtr. throttle with constant changing of elevator trying to time the flare?
@TwoBrosRC
Ай бұрын
We keep elevator input fixed and modulate throttle to control the descent, then flare to drop it gently on the mains.
@calvinpeterson3203

Why relative gains instead of fixed for the as3x+ is that because u can use the knob instead of locking in the gains im confused
@TwoBrosRC
Ай бұрын
We'll go in depth into it in a future vid, but the quick and dirty explanation is that gains work best when tied to airspeed. The faster an aircraft flies, the less gains it needs to stay stable. The slower it flies, the bigger the gains need to be in order to have any measurable effect.

@TwoBrosRC well thanks I have a v3 viper 70mm and only flown it once but not flown yet on new update everything is updated transmitter and new firmware on reciever as3x+ I just wasn't sure on what gains to start with and what high rate and low rate I should start with thx tho. I enjoy your vids
