Very very nice model, and a great maiden considering how nervous you were, and awesome camera work Abby.

When you don't have as3x and safe, you find out what kinda pilot you are. I think you should do yourself a big favor and NOT put the assist on that plane. It looked like it flew great. Imo, those crutches you rely on so much are holding you back from honing the basic skills you used them to learn. You can't say you've mastered an airplane if you're not really flying it. A few more flights and you'll have a solid handle on that thing. You gotta step out of your comfort zone, as you put it, to progress and learn. You're doing great! Thanks for all y'all do. Best wishes.

Great looking plane.

MRS Saylor did an amazing job filming ! luv u both! keep it going

Horizon used to make tons of these balsa PNP models about 10 years ago! My first balsa plane was an E-flite PNP Mini Ultra Stick, assembled in less than 10 minutes with no glue! My advice on smoothing out your flying is to work on mastering the basics of radio setup; dual rates, expo, flap to elevator mixing (if applicable), and throttle curve (on gas planes) can make all the difference in the world. Especially on a faster warbird, a little expo can help the plane seem less "twitchy" and fly more scale, on 3D and aerobatic planes with more available throw, dual or triple rates combined with expo is the key. With proper setup, your plane will fly better and your nerves will calm down. Keep up the great content!

Setting up SAFE is so easy. Thats why I use AR630 receivers in everything now. I thought for sure you were gonna prang this thing. Its impressive that bounce didnt mess it up. I think its gonna fly better with a 6S. It was kind of floaty on 4s and the extra weight of a 6S I've watched 2 or 3 assembly videos of this plane now, and every one of them has a problem with the motor, cowl, mounts, etc. Theres something weird going on with the airframe at the factory. QC isnt catching problems.

Good job Nate!, back in the day (37 years ago), that is all they had was balsa plane kits, now they have a lot of options, but now that I'm retired at 57yrs old I'm getting back into the hobby and I have purchased 4 plane's which are foam, and 1 balsa a 64'' Mustang which is last in the cue to be built because your right it will take me several months to complete, but its all very exciting and fun and I recommend the hobby to people when ever a chance a rises, B-Blessed!

Good job Nate definitely looks a little tail heavy if you can slide the battery about an inch forward. If not add another ounce to the nose. Also give yourself a lower elevator rate warbirds don’t like a lot of elevator authority. Anyway nice first flight. I will have mine up soon also 😉

Nice! ...Warbird landings ALWAYS make me nervous! They don't like slow...like a high wing trainer type! I learned THAT quickly!

Hi Nate and Abby I just got my hanger 9 funscale but i'm afraid of all these fast landings im seeing on this bird do you think i could cut the wing and add flaps everybody seems to have trouble bringing this bird in safely?

That’s a pretty plane

I maidened mine last week on 6s 1 go round on landing ….been flying 1 y 3 m , fun plane

Hey Nate, what reciever did you install in it?

I am currently building an electric version of the Sig Somethin Extra. I am about 2 months in, wings and fuse built, and ready for final sanding, wheel pants finished. I have to work out the cowl, and try to hit the c/g without adding weight. As builds go, it isn't too difficult, pieces fit well, nice plans, and instructions. Lots of small details to attend to. Things like waiting for paint and glue to dry hold me up. If you have the room, and the time, go for it.

gosh darnit! i havent flown in years need to get back into it! but I learned from building a trainer from the KIT PT 40 put .46x os engine and while building took about 2 months i was playing and learning on virtual flight on the PC ! great way to start and really learn about the hobby! and i got a dx9 spektrum, they said but it once a good one it will last for ever i got it right when it came out.

I like the size it's easier to transport, I own some balsa planes they fly great but yeah definitely something that needs all your attention, no one likes picking up splinters My question which Hanger 9 model do you like best ? the 47 or the 19.

I like it, the size is right for transport. Wow very sensitive elevator maybe a little less throws or move the c/g little forward. good landing nothing broken. I have put together three balsa kits and I'm working on my fourth I know what your talking about the plastic engine insert to composite cowl believe it or not use Loctite shoe glue its sticky and it sets fast after a couple hours it dries clear.

used to make a brass prop spinner in that style which would add nose weight for the 4s battery. IF you could find a Great Planes PT40 Balsa Kit ,only challenge would be converting to electric, as they where made for glow fuel motors .but it was a good first build .be prepared to spend 2 weeks of building time.

Mantap pak

The sig 4star 40 is a very easy and quick building balsa kit. I even set mine up with as3x and safe. It's a perfect 2nd airplane.

I flew balsa planes in the 90's which I built. Now I am a little scared of balsa planes till I become a better pilot. But, I know they fly better and do plan to fly some in the future. The Hanger 9 10CC Valiant is on my wish list. Electric Power.

My 12 year old daughter and I just built a Seagull P-47D from Gator-RC Little Bunny and we put a 4 blade prop on that but seems to be a bit more vibration

I'm gonna be honest I am in the hobby for the first time with the cub s2 I fly in beginner mode now ofc because its easy in windy conditions and smaller spaces I want to get something I can do tricks with but im scared to absolutely destroy it on my 1st flight so I am not sure what I should do but I mainly got it just to learn and do some cool stuff with snd just chill out I can do some cool stuff with it but nothing inverted or rolls all it really does is a loop and wing touches at least im my case in no assistance mode I cant fly it at all really so im not sure what to do anyways I love the vids love the war birds keep it up thanks for the awesome vids

Did you move your servo rods to the inner position on the servos, and the connection on the elevator flap to the hole closest to the flap? By adjusting those you can have more elevator, allowing inverted flight. Same goes for ailerons and rudder, allowing more movement and more stunts. Watch out with the ailerons, they rarely need more movement for beginners. I have a mini mustang on wich I put the rods on maximum and it does everything except hovering.

RC Saylors, how would you rate this plane with regards to experience needed to fly? It looked like you were having a tough time negotiating the pattern. I'm a novice pilot hoping to be not scared every time I fly .. I like the look of the War-Bird. Thanks for your channel..I enjoy the content.

Warbirds can be super easy to fly. That being said, taildragger warbirds are going to be the most difficult models you will ever find. This is because landing these is different for every plane. If you aren't comfortable trying it and maybe failing, I'd recommend a tricycle gear warbird or a taildragger high-wing plane that is not just a beginner plane (such as the Skynetic Bison from MotionRC). That all said, it is never a bad idea to start taildragger warbirds on RealFlight or with foam warbirds.

Hay can you guys do a Huina 1593 excavator review. Because I love your guises videos are awesome👍🏼

RTF - Ready To Fly - Comes with everything you need to fly it. Most of the time with a battery and all, but always good to double check. BNF - Bind and Fly - Needs battery and transmitter. Benefit of this is saving money in the long run by owning one or two battery types that work on multiple RCs as well as one universal radio. PNP - Plug and Play - needs all of the above as well as your own receiver in case you fly on a different brand. ARF - Almost Ready to Fly - A little misleading honestly. Needs work putting it together. Usually the plane is mostly built, but needs electronics. Kit - comes in hundreds of pieces and needs built and all components! I hope this helps sort things out.

Seems like every rc-er weather plane, car, boat etc have way to much throw in them and too twitchy. Switch holes in servo, horn, or use dual rates/expo. That thing should fly like a trainer.
