I am in the process of putting together my first fixed wing fpv, so still very new to this although I've flown some planes/wings many years back. Just some thoughts:
- If you use a dedicated fixed wing flight controller, usually cheaper, have a stronger BEC to power servos, and have pin headers allowing you to directly plug in servo plugs. With a drone FC you will need to remap/rewire and solder to connect up the servos/ESCs and potentially add a BEC or run the 5v off your ESCs. Plugs make it a lot easier to move things around, swap servos/ESCs etc.
- Planes (with the rear stabilizer/elevators) tend to be a lot more stable and easier to control than wings, at least that was the way before flight controllers. For similar size/weight/power wings are more agile/faster (and much louder) but typically not something you want to learn to fly on. With flight controllers and a well setup wing maybe it helps.
Wings are also more compact, but a lot of planes have easily detachable wings/tail boom and snap on setups.
- Fimi manta is a vtol, which adds to the complexity of the setup/controls. Don't know how well VTOLs fly now, but in the past many had issues/quirks especially when transitioning. This is a brand new product (and Fimi's first plane?) I would suggest waiting for more solid reviews before jumping on something like this especially if it is going to be your first wing.
Stall speed is 8m/s, so there is no slow flying this setup. And this is a pretty heavy setup at over 0.5kg.
- If you have the WS V1 VTX supposedly that does not play nice at all with GPS, V2 is supposed to be better, but in either case you will probably need to mount the GPS far away from the VTX to get good lock.
- There are quite a few r/c plane flight simulators like Real Flight, Pica Sim but think they maybe LOS only. There is also Wings which offers FPV but never tried it.
