AtomRC Beluga FPV Cockpit 1270mm Wingspan Fixed Wing

The order arrived in a crumpled carobka on the box there was no designation fragile as a result on one wing there was no significant dent did not make a return
I asked Daniel to attach a purchase receipt when ordering, it is needed for aircraft registrations in Kazakhstan, he did not put it, wrote to him to send it to the e-mail, there is no silence of feedback, it is a pity that the store with the name of its product refers to its customer
Disappointed with the purchase, it would be better to make a return

Currently still building it and the support from the team at AtomRC has been so relyable, especially with the other products. I almost have the whole fleet. More to come at:

I got the Beluga PNP with Landing gear. Do not panic if the landing gear is not with the plane. It arrived in a separete package a couple days later. Everything is top notch. The plane went together and fit very well. The overall quality of all of it is very GOOD. I am excited to fly this plane. Thanks ATOMRC.

Things on this model have improved quite a bit from reviews given when the model first appeared. I bought the "kit" version. no electronics. The fit of the parts was very good and the quality of the molding very good also, though there were a few places that the mold may have gotten a "short shot" as the surface finish was poor, but the spots were small. I am going to be modifying this model quite a bit (aesthetically), providing my own high quality servos and better all metal retracts and oleos. a new lower profile canopy will be fitted with a pan-only head tracking FPV system. No flight controller will be used but I will log Airspeed (pitot) and altitude on my radiomaster and call out those values as needed. Looking fwd to flying it!

(I bought the PNP + S version)

The assembly "instructions" were very basic and hard to follow. It also came with a wire harness that you pretty much have to figure out yourself.

Besides that, half of the screw holes do not line up correctly, and some of the screw holes are not the right size so you need to manually widen them. The foam plugs to plug the landing gear housing (if you opt for that version) do not sit flush; they stick out ±3mm. Lastly, the ailerons on my model are both warped; enough to make a measurable aerodynamic difference (I'm planning on using a heat gun to heat them up and bend then straight). It's a very frustrating model to assemble in my experience, with quite a few factory defects.

I have yet to fly it yet, but the assembly difficulty is enough to warrant 2 stars.
