T bird vs V3
Anyone flown both? Range, stability, speed comparisons?
Thanks!

Re: [kusgra] T bird vs V3
Flew with a T bird this weekend. Seemed about pretty close in performance with a phantom 2 with maybe a little more float. I think a better comparison would be the X-bird which is supposed to be the XS leg with the t-bird body. Ive heard it looks like a big flying rectangle.

Theres a pic of once on dz.com now
