I've tried atlantis but didn't like the fact that I can't build the coil( airflow is great) so I tried kayfun v4 clone. OMG I can't stand the airflow on this thing I have to suck it more than a cigarette even with sub ohm 2.7 ver. Don't know if I'm doing something wrong but I got so use to rda even veritas airflow bothers me. Manta v2 less airflow than darkhorse but I'm ok on that. really want a rta when I'm driving. Is there a RTA with massive airflow?

If you're looking for airflow, I suggest you stay clear of RTA's and look into RDA's.

Did you check the airflow ring on the Atlantis? Was it in its wide open position? The Atlantis has of the best airflow I've seen on a tank.
For a tank that has decent airflow, you're going to have to get a genny-style tank and modify it yourself with a drill press, something like an RSST or AGA-T2.

I've heard that the Lemo is good but haven't tried it yet myself. The Orchid is also pretty good, but not the same as an RDA.

The Lemo has incredible versatility with the airflow.
All the way open is about as close to a dripper as you can get. All the way closed is like trying to inhale a sofa through a straw. Some folks have an issue with the flow controller ring readjusting throughout the day, but a small o-ring (like off a drip tip) placed around the bottom solves that.

The Orchid I use is a V4 and while it doesn't have adjustable airflow, the stock flow is still very airy. It's a bit tighter than the Lemo.
Personally, I'm not a huge fan of that Orchid. I find it finicky to wick, and prone to leaking when filling. Since I've got a Lemo, it's been shelved. The Lemo has none of those problems.

I have an Atlantis, and wasn't thrilled about not being able to rebuild it.
The Kanger Subtank takes replaceable heads, but also has a rebuildable deck you can use if that's what you prefer.
You'll find tons of opinions here about Atlantis vs Subtank, I personally like the Subtank of the two. I seem to get better flavor and airflow from it.
Past that, I still prefer the Lemo over both of them. It's much more versatile, smaller diameter, has a better build deck, but holds 1ml less juice than the Subtank which holds about twice what the Atlantis does without the extended tank.

As a side note, Kayfun's have a notoriously tight draw. The V4 is a lot better than the previous versions, but it's still really tight.

The Prometey 3 - adjusts up to 2.2mm airhole - shown here with a very wide bore drip tip. The airflow with the tip and wide open is just huge

I have s kit but wondering if I but it wrong ?

I doubt you did it wrong. There are a few "aftermarket" S-kits out there (Chinese clones) and I don't think all of them have the same 2.7mm hole as the OEM kit.

And honestly, even if you have a 2.7 mm kit, that's not going to be as airy and open as a full-bore "cloud chasing" RDA.

Fair enough.
Mind me asking what turned you away from it?

Probably the fact I have a newly acquired Kayfun V4. This cost so much I am trying to talk myself out of buying anything for a while. A Lemo feels like it would be duplication. A Goblin feels like it would be a whole new vape experience, and so far I've not been able to talk myself out of wanting one.
