I did not realize how *recent* this was (as of today under 2 months); you are way more diligent and patient with this stuff than I could be. As Torboli noted, you could easily (LOL) add a torsion mechanism to the nose wheel to let it pivot up a little when it hits and reduce the chance of losing control on taxi. This is some GREAT work, Troy.

You really Ryanair’d the landing.

Rubber wheels would be much better for that rough surface. Also, I think you had some cold solder joints around the six minute mark. Otherwise, that's a really cool project, and it looked GREAT in the air.

use flux when you solder at 6.08 ish the joints don't look like they flow very well. neat stuff otherwise.

Troy, you are a brave man not doing a single circuit and then checking the electrics! Not the ideal landing/take off surface. Well done on the rescue.

I love how The plane is still gliding with no engines

Troy - great job in restoring your "Phoenix" and getting her back into the air. Nice job in determining the cause of the crash & taking corrective steps to avoid a recurrence.

That's your "prehistoric" pavement on your airfield, the price you pay for absolute beauty and serenity... Beautiful resto, and still flies like a charm. Best of luck in your future endeavors..

Very happy to see you rebuild it. I'm pleased you are now using a totally separate system for the RX and servos. It is usually the high-power stuff that will fail before the low-power stuff! And, I see so many ESC's either have a main MOSFET failure or the darn regulator for the RX--sometimes frying the RX because the regulator shorted! One way or another the RX loses power and you lose the ship! Also, there is an old 'Scratch-Builders' saying: "Any part you can salvage, is a part you do not have to rebuild!" I have made some miraculous repairs with about the only penalty being a bit more weight from the glue or additional supports--but I've never had it be detrimental to the flight characteristics. BRAVO--You're a good man Charlie-Brown!

Wow, I'm still amazed that you designed this beautiful plane from scratch in Fusion360. That is a feat in itself. Great video of the build, crash, and successful 2nd maiden. Would love to see you do some more full designs of other iconic aircraft. I'm sure you've learned a ton about what makes a good build and design from Eclipson, to Planeprint, to 3Dlabprint designs. Keep up the great work. I've learned a ton from your videos. Currently building the PP Eagle and Snowy Owl, as well as the Eclipson Pitts.

Nice job! I would recommend creating a receiver battery harness with two or even three servo connectors/cables instead of just one. Servo connectors are only rated to around 3 amps, and those tiny wires aren't rated to much more. As many servos as you have you will likely see quite a bit of voltage drop through those small wires and single connector. While it would probably be fine, redundancy is a very good thing to have. I use receiver batteries on my RC helicopters and always use at least 2 wires from the receiver pack if not three.

Hello, I speak from São Paulo, Brazil and your construction is just perfect, worthy of a trophy, as I am an admirer of commercial jets, I don't get tired of watching the video...you won another writing on the channel Congratulations.

I'm so glad you came over the crash and rebuilt it. I'm also glad you used the auxiliairy battery for reception ! Great job !

Hey great job! Glad you stuck with it and printed another as it really has a presence in the air. I was curious in regards to your print farm. What’s your favorite printer? I have a Prusa and CR4 but looking for a good nylon capable printer.

Love how that thing flies! Great job, and also good job on getting it back in the air and utilizing feedback from your last video. Thinking you need to have that landing gear be articulating and have some form of suspension though. That, and maybe run a Zamboni over that desert floor! :D

@AerialWaviator

A zamboni on a dry lake bed much just work. A bit muddy at first, but should dry hard and smooth. (3d printed zamboni project coming up .. LOL)

Glad you were able to salvage the build, came in rather hot though!

Really glad you were able to get it back up in the air. Can't wait for more, keep it up!

Another awesome video! Great to see the liner in the air and I'm sure I'll be purchasing the STL before long. The liner could use some flaps, in my opinion, to help slow the landings. Your 3D printing future is looking busy.

At a 1.6m wingspan this is 1:21.25 scale, and at 3.6kg this is equivalent to a real A321 taking off at 34.5 metric tons, about 10 tons lighter than the empty takeoff configuration.

Glad to see you rebuilt it. The long ESC power leads are still a concern but I have only known it to cause an issue on one of my builds when I did it on a large drone. On that drone I resolved it by extending the leads from the ESC to the motor instead of the battery lead. Grats on the successful maiden.

You are not only a wonderful engineer with golden hands, but also a wonderful, kind person yourself. Thanks!!!! Good luck and interesting work

Great video I've ordered my 1st 3D printer after watching lots of your channel a Anycubic Vyper.Been into rc flying for many years and I would recommend a watt meter for your tool box,it saved one of my models when I put an over sized prop on pulling over 100 amps on a 80 amp esc.

You have a wonderful positive attitude. This breeds success. Right on!

I am glad you remade this. It's a success story!

If the battery exploded that would have looked so cool.

Truly amazing build. Just two thoughts I have: 1) The runway is very rough. I would love to see a smoother takeoff and landing of this plane on a better runway. 2) How awesome would it be to have a camera (or even better: multiple cameras) in that plane, and then fly it with the pilot's view using VR-goggles, and make nice drone footage with it? I understand that would add a bunch of electronics, which means extra work and would add to the budget needed; but the plane is easily large enough to hold such wonderful extra's.

Awesome recovery! Excellent job on the landing! Great video, Thanks.

Nicely done! I was quite impressed after the crash how well the fuselage sections held together. The glue functioned very well indeed! I am ordering some as I type, lol!

So glad you decided to rebuild that beautiful plane! Wow, flies like it's on rails. Great work!

I might suggest some split flaps for a lower landing speed as well as something to absorb the landing shock. I'd use a 3d printed trailing arm suspension with some rubber bands as spring force and a 3d printed rubber bumper for dampening.

I commend you for your choice of your maiden flight safe location. With any electric model aircraft, one never knows what will happen. Your work is beautiful. I wish our hobby had more modelers like you. Thank you.

Beautiful airplane Troy. I'm glad you rebuilt it!

Soo cool, I've been flying edf for years and jets😊 always used 3D printing for it too and thought about 3D print a hole plane😊 Btw, have you thought about using carbon fibre rods in the fuselage instead to hold it all together ?🤔 then it would be easier to replace sections and it may be more rigid

That was not a landing, was a second crash similar to the first LOL

I'm still confused on how you stayed that calm during the crash. Nice to see it fly again :)

You look like you could make good use of the build volume of a Ender 5 plus

Great to see your rebuild and triumphant second flight. Bravo!!!

Now i know nothing about aircrafts. But i think that rough ground is taking a toll over it.

How about an A-10 Warthog next, great build! A warthog with retracts would be awesome.

Excellent re-build. Amazing the work, you can perform. Being on a dry lake bed is very rough on your gear. If the wheels are to scale you may want to go a size or two bigger given the conditions of the road bed. Looks matter but so does function too. Stay well.

That is so cool how you provide the files for others to build. Good job m8!

Butter landing at the start

Retractable gears will reduce a lot of drag during flight, and increase your potential flight time. Adding flaps will help you land much slower, but in the meantime try pull up a little bit more before touch down. So far looks amazing! Looking forward to your next video

Need to replace the paint with Ryanair. That’d be a perfect simulator for them

I liked the realistic way the your RC model flies, without abrupt maneuvers like other models

Bravo my friend, you made a great job!

Honestly, you need to find a smoother airfield, seeing you subjecting your finely-printed models to this rough terrain gives me the creeps. I guess it also doesn't help much that you're printing your tires with the same hard filament as the rest of the plane. Maybe you could use flexible filament for that, or (even better), use real rubber tires.

Congrats on getting this plane fixed. The runway does scare me a little, I honestly thought that the nose wheel had collapsed, after it had come to full stop, because of the dust that seemed to be coming from the nose.

Good to see you fixed it.

Great video, One suggestion about wire, are you using wire with high temperature insulation such as Silicon or Teflon? Then even if the wire overheats as long as the insulation doesn't melt the wires can't short together, it's a better safety factor. There are high temp woven sleeves that go over the wires also.

Perfect take-off, flight, and landing... so happy to see it in the air. Well done. I would print this if it fit a standard build plate size. Mine is 250x210x210. Looks like lots of others are asking for this as well. What do you think? Still using 70mm EDFs, I would love to print a slightly scaled down version to fit my build plate. Either more parts to print or a scaled down version... I'd be very happy with either. As it is... I can't print it... and it's killin' me. Cheers.

Great job on the rebuild. Great job on the 2nd flight.

Very Great Project - best wishes from Germany to you ❤️

This flew MUCH better than your DC3. Hate your field… that makes it very hard on the plane, all that rattling on those horrible old cracks in the dirt …. Could shake something loose, or break it, like the gear. But man does it fly sweet! Hope you’ve had some more successful flights since this video. Thanks for your generosity in sharing your experiences. Bravo.

awesome job, would love to do this if i had the kit! i'd probably use much bigger and softer wheels for that surface.. and add nav, landing, strobe lights :D

that's the most realistic crash i've ever seen

Add retracting gear to make it more aerodynamic to increase the trim to make it stay off the ground for longer if that happens again

I think you can definitely land that thing slower, would really help with the rough runway you have
