Nailed my 1st loops today! I still fly almost exclusively in SAFE, on my 1st plane still. Its a UMX TimberX. It's at least double weight with Foam2Foam and HD packing tape. But dang, i love flying her. She flies great with 800mAh 3s and flaperons. UMX line and 1000's of hours of BPRC videos= the BEST way to become an RC pilot. Oh, and SAFE helps, too 👍 Thanks Brian and Megan!!!

I spent way too much time on safe. I started clicking out of safe for stunts and back in on exit of the stunt. As I gained confidence I would do a loop then roll on exit and safe to recover. After that I started doing chains of stunt combos and trying to push the safe recovery as far as I could. After that I started learning coordinated turns out of safe. When I got that figured out I started doing a low pass into vertical climb and rotation then pull back on the stick until I head back to the ground pulling up again to go back through the low pass and mirror it on the other side. It helps to use the same plane for it. Now I can switch in and out of safe and my fingers just know what to do. I love that safe for regaining control after loss of orientation, when I get dizzy and have to look at the ground for several seconds and on takeoff and landing in windy conditions.

Might have been to quick but with enough space to fumble around and stop stressing its easy to fly. Pretty much beginner.

kind sir: the kind of content you create can never be replaced by ai. You know why? Well, think of all the thousands of soul-less creators on the intertubes that pump out drivel content, their content is indistinguishable from AI because both are soul-less. And that is the difference between you and AI. AI has no soul, but your content is your lived experience. It is fundamentally human. It cannot be machine learned, nor can it be replaced algorithmically with mathematical series of 1's and 0's. TLDR: your content is raw, authentic, fundamentally human. KZread will try to replace you with ai generated content, but they will fail. Fly on! my man! Fly on And enjoy the joy from the experience that is the human experience of flying. Fly on my man!

Hey, loved this video! I recently bought this plane as a next step for my son after flying mini warbird planes. I picked up a used DX6i transmitter on eBay and was assured by the seller that it was compatible. However, after having issues with the rudder jamming to one side and twitching uncontrollably after binding, I called up a hobby shop to get some support. They told me that the DX6i was too old for this plane and that’s why the rudder was misbehaving. Can anybody confirm if this is true please? I’m really disappointed and frustrated, so any help/advice would be very much appreciated. Thanks, folks! 🙏🏻

We have links to the correct items almost every item we review. These links are in the video description. bprc.me/AirTractor bprc.me/3S_300 bprc.me/IC3_to_JST bprc.me/NX10 ( OR you could also get another choice here bprc.me/Tx ) The DX6i might be okay. I believe your issue is the RUDDER SERVO. First - try changing the range from +/- 100% to something like +/- 95%....these long throw linear servos sometimes get STUCK at their end of stroke and then can't return to neutral. Second - If that still doesn't work you can watch this video (old but might help from a similar concern I had a long time ago with a J3 Cub UMX) - kzread.info/dash/bejne/nYyDqpqGc8eZZqg.html - this might be helpful enough to get you where you need to be. IF your servo is bad, you might be able to get Horizon Hobby to replace the plane. ...BUT I honestly don't know for sure if the DX6i will work. It might operate only on DSM and DSM2, while the newer UMX planes operate in DSMX, which is a newer transmission protocol. If the protocol is not the same it won't work, but it's been forever since I touched a DX6i.

Hey Brian, always great watching your videos ... love em! Question, I'm using the same 300mah 3S Spektrum battery and on balancing the plane at 29mm CG (where you had it), I noticed that it tends to climb ... did you have to add some down elevator to get level flight?

Hi Brian, can you help us newbies by writing a manual that we could buy on how to set a transmitter to bind it to an airplane. It's got to be easy to read and easy to follow with step to step screens. Even if you had a white board with the steps on it so we can pause the video to write down the steps would help. In the nx8 manual they have system setup and model select on page 12,create a new model on page 16 and wing on page 39. Please help us!

I spent way too much time on safe. I started clicking out of safe for stunts and back in on exit of the stunt. As I gained confidence I would do a loop then roll on exit and safe to recover. After that I started doing chains of stunt combos and trying to push the safe recovery as far as I could. After that I started learning coordinated turns out of safe. When I got that figured out I started doing a low pass into vertical climb and rotation then pull back on the stick until I head back to the ground pulling up again to go back through the low pass and mirror it on the other side. It helps to use the same plane for it. Now I can switch in and out of safe and my fingers just know what to do. I love that safe for regaining control after loss of orientation, when I get dizzy and have to look at the ground for several seconds and on takeoff and landing in windy conditions.

When i first watched this video i thought you were trying to really sell it but this thing is pretty damn awesome. 2 nose dives and some super glue later, still flys like new. To be dumb i put some umx turbo timber slats on it, maybe it will help with stole performance. I did get this after flying the rage rc f4u for about 2 weeks.

Hey, loved this video! I recently bought this plane as a next step for my son after flying mini warbird planes. I picked up a used DX6i transmitter on eBay and was assured by the seller that it was compatible. However, after having issues with the rudder jamming to one side and twitching uncontrollably after binding, I called up a hobby shop to get some support. They told me that the DX6i was too old for this plane and that’s why the rudder was misbehaving. Can anybody confirm if this is true please? I’m really disappointed and frustrated, so any help/advice would be very much appreciated. Thanks, folks! 🙏🏻

We have links to the correct items almost every item we review. These links are in the video description. bprc.me/AirTractor bprc.me/3S_300 bprc.me/IC3_to_JST bprc.me/NX10 ( OR you could also get another choice here bprc.me/Tx ) The DX6i might be okay. I believe your issue is the RUDDER SERVO. First - try changing the range from +/- 100% to something like +/- 95%....these long throw linear servos sometimes get STUCK at their end of stroke and then can't return to neutral. Second - If that still doesn't work you can watch this video (old but might help from a similar concern I had a long time ago with a J3 Cub UMX) - kzread.info/dash/bejne/nYyDqpqGc8eZZqg.html - this might be helpful enough to get you where you need to be. IF your servo is bad, you might be able to get Horizon Hobby to replace the plane. ...BUT I honestly don't know for sure if the DX6i will work. It might operate only on DSM and DSM2, while the newer UMX planes operate in DSMX, which is a newer transmission protocol. If the protocol is not the same it won't work, but it's been forever since I touched a DX6i.

Looking for plane assembly tools like screwdrivers and hex drivers etc. I've been looking through you links and haven't seen one. Seems like you mentioned on in a video once but I can't find it. Your videos have helped me out so much I try to buy my stuff from your links to help support your great content! Thanks!
Are you Jack Black's brother ? 😁
can extra props for this little umx be found anywhere?

No, you'll have another opportunity for this one too, it's only pre-order right now ;)
I have the 1.5m it's my favorite plane.
Brian, where can I get the battery adapter with the balance lead? Need one badly
I have a little extra funds coming to me, which UMX would you prefer between the Timber Turbo Evolution or the Air Tractor? I like them both, but I just wanted your opinion. Thanks H²
Hey Brian, always great watching your videos ... love em! Question, I'm using the same 300mah 3S Spektrum battery and on balancing the plane at 29mm CG (where you had it), I noticed that it tends to climb ... did you have to add some down elevator to get level flight?
Hi Brian, can you help us newbies by writing a manual that we could buy on how to set a transmitter to bind it to an airplane. It's got to be easy to read and easy to follow with step to step screens. Even if you had a white board with the steps on it so we can pause the video to write down the steps would help. In the nx8 manual they have system setup and model select on page 12,create a new model on page 16 and wing on page 39. Please help us!
Super 😄🇨🇭👍

I'm the same way. I've bought more planes on impulse than I've bought on backorder.

@thomasseeley8124 No not really they are missing sales. 90% is impulse buys. It's bad marketing. Horizon can't get product in stock anyway. Why give them my money and wait for six months for them to deliver. I fly giant scale rc mostly.

I'm sold Brian! Using your link now. There's 2 part number EFLU14650's. One is 299.99 and the other is 169.99. What is the difference besides the pre order on the 169.99 one? Sorry, but I'll never pay 300 for a UMX as much as I love all 13 that I have. LOL,,, but under 200 is the going price tag. Help me out here bud.......

Could I remove the reciever it comes with and put in a different one? Also would it be a good beginner plane?

As hard as I can I do not understand why you don't just put a piece of velcro on each battery, that way the batteries can also be stored in a battery bag lined with velcro...., but each to his own, Love the plane
i just wish eflite would get away from the linear servos on the umx planes

@BrianPhillipsRC You had me wondering if Air Tractor bought some Piper rights.
I can see that Brian is a an expert. But for a beginner this video is hard to follow. Way too fast between transitions and never enough time to see his screen. I paused and rewond the video several times which only caused me to have to sit through several advertisements.

I'm sorry we were moving too quick for you. It's tough, since we have to try to keep things moving for "regulars" but slow for newer pilots. If you find it helpful, you can click the gear icon and playback speed to 0.25 times speed, if you really want to slow things down without adding a bunch of annoying adds. Thanks for understanding that we're trying out best here, and hope that you will be better able to follow along with this tip.
Sorry pal But that Tractor model big and small are but ugly planes lol . But nice review.
