In this video review we get to meet the ZOHD Drift FPV glider for the first time.

I know some of you maybe wondering already, WTF its tiny, what can we do with a 35 wing span glider? A huge spoiler, fly for days!

The ZOHD Drift is designed for FPV, however if you just want to fly line of sight, as we saw in the video, they can be very nimble, making them an option for the flying field or the slope, if slope soaring is your thing.

One key thing to take away about the ZOHD Drift model is that it can easily be broken down into 3 pieces. This makes transporting it simple and could make a great back-pack or holiday plane to sneak into the car when you go away.

Final Thoughts

As always dont go for the FPV version. Youre always better going for a dedicated camera and FPV transmitter in all your FPV RC models.

However do go for the PNP kit, yes its more expensive but the time it takes to get to the flight line as we saw in the video is very, very low as the provided parts are good quality and just work.

If youre looking to set your Drift up for long range FPV, then check out the video review we have coming up shortly because it includes everything you need to know to get +1hr flight times out of your ZOHD Drift model!
