I think those are F8F Bearcat.

Hi well I've opened my box of the red arrows minimum plane kit and there was no electrics in there did you have to pay extra to get your electrics .let me know

If I purchase this cool plane it will be my first in over 60 years. This will be my 'trainer'...

Ok I'm inspired by you and just ordered the F6F Guillows kit. I will be doing the RC conversion. Keep these conversions coming! Love the vids

Love this model

Thank you for reviewing this drone. Looking forward to part 2 and your detailed explanation on how to use the phone application to its fullest ! THANK YOU !

Cool little plane.

I was thinking the motor might need alignment through the center of gravity if not looking at the angle of the hor. stab to the wing. Most on the Bixler types and the larger Rangers benefit from such. I like the tiny version of my Ranger 1600.

great info.. Im an old nitro guy and after a decade break, getting back in to the hobby with electric.. Thanks for the explanation on how it all works.. Quite an interesting change from the old 4 channel futaba.. Thanks for sharing..

Good Flying Glider Tim!! you have a po box address so i can send you something in the mail?

The difficulty for initial students of flight is that lift is produced by two or more methods simultaneously and not just by a single force. The lift mechanism is also affected by the speed through the air and compression effects. There is only one important principle that needs to be borne in mind and that is that all wings will stall at a given angle of attack for that wing, no matter what speed the aircraft is flying at. That is the point where the airflow over the top of the wing becomes chaotic and a large element of lift is lost. Tilt the wing up too far into the oncoming airflow and the wing will stop flying. If the aircraft has an excess of thrust over weight, the aircraft will still fly but it is held up in the air by the thrust of the engine against gravity, not because of lift from the wings.

Getting back in to flying from my old Futaba days and these Spectrum Tx really are a big change. You have made these videos so well my Fear is not being overwelmed. Thank you and appreciate your efforts and abilitys.

Hi Philip here.ive just brought my red arrows minimum rc plane kit and I hope everything is in the box so I can get it going.i no I've got to buy the dx6 controler .did you get everything in your box let me know

Where do I find the "operator ID" number that must be entered on the input binding information page. The "registration number' is also required. I was able to find the registration number on the FAA drone zone site but not an operator ID number. This seems to be different than the FAA registration number which is assinged to each personal account on the FAA page.

That would be fun to take to the beach or road cut and try to slope soar with it. If it doesn't pan out you could power up the motor and recover the plane.

I believe all those Volantex airplanes have the same little radio setup. I bought the Me109 and it flies like a dream. I am 100% self-taught, so all the electronic gizmos make it possible to enjoy flying without panicking about crashes. Thanks for the review!

My kind of plane. It looks like it might have benefited from some nose weight or down trim.

Just bought one based on your help Tim. Thanks. When I enter the binding, I have to enter a plane but when I move it to another plane, do I have to keep re-entering the new plane informatino or is it OK to just leave in a general plane data since the binding and GPS will be working anyway.

The BEC plug on an Apprentice 1.5 m with a "smart ESC" goes into slot 6 of the included receiver. A non-smart ESC, if you are using one, goes to slot 1. I just became aware of this while helping a new pilot set up his plane. A bit unusual, but that's the way it is.

They will never enforce remote id. The FAA doesnt have the man power. A hundred bucks saved, one silly regulation that is extreme and over reaching for a rc fixed wing plane thwarted. 🤷‍♂️ give them an inch of your freedom, and they will take miles from you. dont start now!

Well done. Do you have a video or good source to match up different batteries, ESCs, and motors?

Thks

such a great video - so helpful - thank you for sharing

Is the JR, hitec, and Futaba connects for servos still a thing?

Tim, another outstanding video, and you knocked it out of the park! So the remote ID takes up one of the slots in the receiver. In your demonstration, you would not be able to add, say retractable gear, since the ID uses the last slot in the receiver. Do I understand it correctly? In another of your videos, you mentioned the RUKO ID which helps find your plane. Would you recommend that over the FliteTest remote ID if you wanted the RUKU location feature or can the Flite Test ID also find your plane? Please keep up the good work. You're one of the best YT channels for RC.

I have become interested in vintage free flight models. Many have their CG well back. Why is this and how do they fly so well?

Nice video

Hi Tim Great video! Do you think it's feasible to build this from foam? My balsa skills do not exist Total noob😅

Tim, can i get you to build me a fully functioning R/C toy model? If your interested respond and I'll send the drawings.

Anyone have experience with this device tracking a lost drone in a cornfield? Is it truly a gps tracking vs local Bluetooth connection like AirTags?

Is the $5.00 tax deductible ?

I want to make the construction lines a little darker, this program is not as good I thought it would be

Hi, thanks for the clip you put the construction line in the middle of nowhere. How do I put it on e.g. 0

Way to go love it was having trouble with the download but I'll keep trying

I use a ‘tile’ or apple air tag Tim

Some crashes I can remember. 1. The old reverse ailerons trick without a preflight check. 2. Hammerhead stall turn straight through a slow flying plane minding its own business. 3. TX screen brown out from a Taranis intermittent main switch and or battery connection failure and reboot. 4. Kk2.1 flight controller brown out and reboot on VTOL plane from a dodgy XT60 connector or 5V 3Amp UBEC overload. 5. An arrogant tree not watching out for my plane. 6. Moving my vehicle I backed over my plane at the field was definitely the least satisfying crash ever, and dont leave them on the car roof either.

Hi Tim, I am 13 and new to building RC planes and I have built your bronco design and I have had problems with my plane banking to the right. I have tried to trim the ailerons with little to no success. Do you have any suggestions to help me fix my problem? thank you, Mason

Fun fact about modules. Very easy to spoof pilot location, one of big concerns with RID. Simply turn module on a mile (or however far away) from where you plan to actually fly. It will record 1st place it achieves gps lock as "pilot location". This will help keep pilots safe!! Don't worry if the module does not sow on your phone under any "drone scanner" apps. There is a difference in phones OS vs RID Bluetooth type and what they'll receive. As long as it's faa certified...I hope it only broadcasts 100 yards and isn't receivable on most handsets!!

Excellent video on the drone and your first drone experience! I will be interested to see where you go with this. I will have to admit that I am quite surprised, shocked actually, that you bought a drone based on how you have covered drone topics in the past. I am curious about a couple of things. - What is your motivation with this? Is this to expand your content on your channel, just curious about drones, or do you have a desire to get into the filming aspect of this? - Are you going to go out and explore? Ok, a bit of good natured dig there, hopefully you take that in jest. Seriously though, do you have places besides your home and your RC field that you are interested in going and getting video? - be interesting to hear you talk to the first time, first drone, selection process. Heard good things about the U11Mini, however giving up on the gimbal is something to consider as opposed to a DJI Mine 2,3 or 4. What did you consider and how did you arrive at this one? Not criticizing your choice, just curious. - How did your buddies at the local field react to this, to you joining the dark side? - lastly, do you have your part 107 given that you are posting video to your YT channel? I have gotten a response from the faa that simply sharing your video and/or posting to social media does NOT, necessarily, invalidate your recreational intent. However, it could depending on whether good will or self promotion is involved.

Just found you. Good tutorials. I liked the comment, 'the old days back in the 90s on section 4. Try back in the 1970s........ Even harder to build enough models. Thanks. Maury.

Sir. Im 65yo in Alabama. Flyin Electrics 16 yrs. First plane Was Horizion " Champ umx 1 cell. HH came a long way. Ive the Umx pitts bought last week. Tks for review. I always learn something. Regards Captain John

Where do I put my fingers to test cg because it a ridged wing and what's the formula??

That's a cool looking drone and at a fair price. I'm aware there's no need to remote ID below-250gm models but I've been putting my FAA operator registration number on all my park planes. Do you think I should leave that info out for my unregistered planes?

woohoo. that is insane job-catch ya later! 🙂

What hardware with recievers for micro planes that could connect/bind to my spectrum transmitter?

Ok, now how do you figure that out without using paper when the plane is already built??

Grewat content. I just ordered one. Many thanks Tim. Greetings from Australia

A tissue covering should result in a significant weight saving over plastic film. Comet kitted a nice 54 in. span Aeronca Chief. Someday I will finish my kit!

That helicopter has 3d modo???
