BIGWING (JETWING) by PLANEPRINT (3D printed RC plane) Wingspan: 2060 mm

This will probably be my longest description 😉.

The JetWing with its small wings has already convinced me, and the modular system is in a class of its own. I'll say this much in advance: when I fly in the future, the JetWing and Bigwing will always be with me.

The Bigwing has unbelievable performance, and you can probably only understand it once you've flown it.
I have flown many flying wings in the last 40 years, but none has ever surprised me like this. Flight characteristics are outstanding despite the EDF fuselage. Such a good glide angle, it also takes thermals very well. Very good and precise. For me a completely new experience in the field of printed models, and I can say that with a clear conscience, as I have never had 1cent of my flight models sponsored, nor do I want to!
After this experience I will also build and test the glider fuselage.
Hand launch and ground launch work great.
I have never had a flying wing of this size where the rudder works so extremely well, yes it is in the beam of the EDF but with the short fuselage axis it is amazing.
Just as praiseworthy is the fact that I didn't even have to move the battery by 1mm when changing from the small to the large wing!
I adjusted everything according to the instructions and the settings fit well, you can experiment a lot with the 4 flaps, I only had to trim about 3 points.
The EDF is theoretically too strong for the Bigwing (at least mine is). You should be careful not to overdo it, as you can see in the 2nd half of the video. I would advise against going beyond that.
I see the BIGWING mainly as a very good glider, just to enjoy, I have only done aerobatics to test the strength, it can, but I will use it for circling.
I am totally thrilled and must take my hat off to implement such a well-functioning concept, my full respect. I must also praise the very good instructions.

Flight time with my 4s 4000mAh lipo was a whopping 18min and that was without much thermals.
