Press review - February 2020

Modèle Magazine #821

February 2020

The Ranger is on the front page, in the "models to well get started".

It is also visible with the floats in the summary page.

The very detailled review is written by Jean-Louis Coussot, and he has been using this plane for a few months to ensure training of beginners in his model club.

The author tested the Ranger with LiPo batteries ranging from the recommended 3S 1300 mAh to 3S 2800 mAh, and the aircraft thus gains considerably in flight time, without losing anything of the flying characteritics.

Extracts from the review :

"I made fly the Ranger by many pilots of my club, of all levels, to collect their impressions and they are unanimous on the flying pleasure and the easy behaviour as well at takeoff as at landing."

"By the way, what about the nose gear? Well, it is really effective: it supports without problem “hard” landings without flare, and we can clearly see the front leg folding and resuming its place… If the motor is off, we don't even damage the propeller. The "off-runway" arrival in the grass is cashed in without problem, with at worst an airplane which turns around without damage. In any case, the front of the plane is preserved."

"The FMS 1220mm Ranger is a perfect plane to get started, really pleasant and offering mind peace for training with dual-control system. The Reflex module is a real "plus" that allows you to adapt the ease of the plane to the student's progress."

"Super-fast assembly at the field, remarkably adapted behaviour to the intended use, I would say that trying it is adopting it. And it is not only for beginners, since experienced pilots who tested it was not bored for a second (and if I don't have any student present, I am the first to be delighted to have fun with it ...). … Why deprive yourself of it? "
