E-flite UMX P-51D Voodoo Flight Review & Durability "Test"
Ғылым және технология
I've been on a bit of a race plane kick lately and so I was really excited to see the new E-flite UMX P-51 Voodoo come into the shop. The model looks awesome and flies great! Power is a 3s 300 mah battery which provides very long flight times as well. I can't help it, I always Geek out over these UMX airframes, it's like flying a plastic model sized RC, haha! #p51mustang #raceplane #scalemodel

Great video Chris . Thanks for posting. A little pocket rocket! . I was surprised how stable it flys , didn’t look twitchy at all . This looks like a trunk take along model. CU out there 👍
One of my faves in the group I have. Nice flying bud.
Outstanding brother, glad to see you out testing some new planes! You'll be able to enjoy the fall leaves there in a few weeks time! I always liked Autumn out in Middle TN...All the best and happy landings!

Super cool little bird! Wish I had been there to watch in person. Appears very stable in the wind for a small plane. Fun video!

Thanks! I was quite impressed with how well it handled the wind.
AWSOME CHRIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Need to get one1!!! NICE review!!
Great video Chris! I fly UMX almost always.. A big plus about the P51 frame is that they are almost indestructible. I still have every P51 I've ever bought. I'll be buying this today.

Awesome! 😊
Just a heads up for anyone that buys this!! If you know hold to solder then please solder on a xt30 lead on the plane. You can use multiple rdq lipo batteries that fit. Up to a 4s 380mah but you gotta snap off two of the 4 props. And not to mention there is a much better power exchange through a xt30 vs the jst and less voltage sag.
What a beauty, thanks for sharing this video

Chris thanks for posting this video. When the plane is flying can you turn off the background music so we can hear the plane? I know it's a small thing but it's nice to hear what the plane sounds like. If not it's cool, I know it's your channel.

I usually do on these reviews but the airplane was so quiet that it literally was just dead air when it was off in the distance. So I kept the music going in this case.

Alex, FWIW I just picked one up and flew it yesterday. It really is way too quiet, almost silent. It is quite possibly the best flying UMX plane they have made.
Fan the flames. Go LU!

Feels pretty good there to me, but is pretty neutral in the inverted.
e-flite make another UMX and scale it up to just under 250g with 3s battery maybe aim for 247g for some leeway.
They neeed to do the larger P-51 in that voodoo colors would be so awesome. looks fast for a UMX.

@@Thercgeek They have four variants. DAGO RED, VOODOO, MISS AMERICA, and BLUE THUNDER 2. It is a great model, 98.5 mph by SPEKTRUM GPS out of the box. And it has actual landing gear and a scale prop!
I love mine, I use a RDQ 3s 350mah HV 50c lipo and get easy 5min flights with half power and full power flights.

Seems like the kind of little bird you should keep close, in spite of the incredible ability of the plane to perform outsize maneuvers.
