Their excuses are pure B.S. The real reason is GREED!!!!!

The kits are a bit pricey, but building the planes from scratch using free plans was not only a learning curve in itself, but having to do slight modifications because you built it yourself was also a great learning experience. Hopefully we see plans for this someday in the future, the free plans got me into flying!! This plane looks sweet, i love how versatile it is!

I get why they stoped giving away all the plans. Im bummed they havent figured out a way i could pay for just the plans yet. Not some limited onetime release of whichever select planes they happen to feature. Paid individual downloads or a different tier of subscription service or something. Building from plans has value to me, i for one would pay for it. Im sure the'll work it out. This plane looks awesome

Whats the price

I really liked the retro style intro. It reminded me of back when the other Josh was there. same thing with some of the corny tutor jokes. Plane looks really cool.

I'm always happy with new-era FT content, but it's nice to be treated with the old-style intros and a classic-style challenge every so often!

Really nice to see you rediscovering your roots. This plane will most likely end up being one of my new favorites. Peter's 'Bushwhacker' will always be my all time favorite. I certainly hope the build plans will be available for download.

Its glad to hear the old intro song again!

This is the first FT video I have watched in a while, and boy does this bring back nostalgia ! Love the throwback style, hope you keep it up in the future!

MY FAVORITE KZreadR!

This Old Man from North Carolina always enjoying your videos. It always amazes me on what you dream up. Love you guys. ✈️🧔💝

Just found your channel and have binged everything. . so much so that within a week i bought the FT Tutor "getting started bundle" ... i never realized i would be able to make an RC airplane .. but it was as easy as can be thanks to your kits/vids! Cheers!

I think it would be really cool if you made one really big plane that has to survive the swarm. The swarm is a bunch of tiny r.c. Planes that have a sticky nose that sticks on the bigger airplane.If the bigger plane lasts for more than 10 minutes the big plane wins.

As a fpv drone pilot, I've decided to dip my toes into the world of fixed wings. The tutor is going to be my first build and first bird! Going to paint it up in that classic yellow cubby livery. Beyond excited for better weather and building! Clear skies yall :)

The paint and color choices are awesome. Each is a unique character.

Classic intro, Classic Ft plane full of diverse capabilities, I’m hooked!!!

Best Video Of Flite Test Ever!!!

I like the new intro to the video! The compilation is really nice and accurately captures what flitetest is about 👍

These are the best type of planes fr, always loved the bushwacker 💯

Nice to see a return to the flite test roots

Looks a lot like a normal width bushwacker - another great FT plane

Outstanding video. I really like it. 🔥🔥👍💪💪

I absolutely love the challenge vids You guys should do more of these 🔥👍✌️

So cool ya'll are having all the fun lol

Pretty amazing airplane, guys! 😃 Fantastic work!!! Stay safe there with your families! 🖖😊

Just built this plane, flies beautifully. Can't wait to start modifying it. The lack of plans still bums me out but I dont want to be yet another guy beating that drum.

I’m super exited from the old into

If everything holds together I will build one this spring.

I really like the challenge wheel. Would be fun to see that again in future videos.

​@@Youdontwannaknow.. It's not for the money. It's to protect their intellectual property. You still have access to nearly 70 free plans, plus the ones released by community members on the forum which would not exist without Flite Test and which hosting fees are payed for by Flite Test. Flite Test also is a strong advocate for the hobby, spending their time talking to politicians, so we can still fly at all. Oh and that besides all the other activities like the STEM program, community gatherings, etc. You pay five times as much for one servo, but you are not willing to pay a dollar for plans that you can reuse again and again?

Good job on the planes

Great video Flite Test! Looks like a very cool plane! I was wondering how to get the 3d printer files for the bomb drop? Are they free or do you get them with the speed build kit?

I'm really excited about this plane. I've built and flown the Simple Cub until crashed beyond repair. I think this design is a few steps up on the Simple Cub. So, how does the model fly with flaperons?

Update... I've built a 5 channel, tail dragger Tutor. What I have with the flaps is a STOL Tutor. I'm amazed at how slow I can fly my STOL Tutor without it stalling. I built FT Storch style slats but can't see any reason other than curiosity for putting them on my plane. I did upgrade from my rescued Simple Cub 935kv motor to a FT 1050kv motor with a 0945 prop. Motor upgrade made a substantial improvement in flight performance. So, I'll be painting my STOL Tutor because she's a keeper. Plan on building a second Tutor this summer with the Turbo wing and "C" pack motor. Great design guys! 👍

OHMYGOSH the SOUND of that spinning challenge wheel .... "toot toot toot toot toot ..." XD XD

Do any of the kits include a tricycle gear setup?

What would be an interesting project would be to make an amphibious plane that was experimented with in the UK during the end of ww2. It had one large float that retracted so as to blend in with the fuselage. Two wingtip floats also retracted. The theory was to reduce the drag from the floats.

May I offer the name "AQUA TUDER" Awesome knowledge. Great content 👍.

Please make a Monster Series F4 Phantom RC sometime soon!

@FliteTest - so what is the BIGGEST you could possibly build this plane? Wit your biggest electric motor that you could find, and the biggest servos to throw the biggest control surfaces. And how big a wing can you make from single sheets? (or could you go even bigger with multiple sheets?) Just how big could you possibly go on this thing - and would it handle the same?

Is this a better choice than the simple Cub. It's hard to learn without planes to learn on and I'm trying my best to make it happen. I need at least a couple trainers I would think. Hoping for the best option

Hi, have you thought of makinga BSG Viper MkII, and a Cylon raider?

I am thinking of getting this plane as a kind of new pilot, but I was wondering if I need a gyro for this.

Salve meu sonho e ter um desses 😍😔 amo vcs

I also like these creations i will also try this ❤🔥

Bring back the a10 please

this reminds me of that one guy that modified the tiny trainer's fuselage design

Can you please do the F-35B?

Hey guys. I'd really like to build this from scratch. I can't seem to find the free online plans. Will they be going up soon? Here in Australia, the freight & the wait is not practical to buy the speed build kit.

Can you build an A-37 Super Tweet?

Awesome

Hey guys!

Looks alot like the simple cub just a bit more agile

First 🥇

Still would like a cheap 60 to 70 mm (I have 64 mm) pdf trainer so that way the prop is protected

Is this different from your cub I know more options. On this one. Wings

Guys you should build a masterseries se5a that would be a great plane i guess

To _MY_ mind what would be ideal for a trainer (or "Tutor" ) aircraft would be one where you could shift from a high dihedral wing to a lower one without changing anything else. I sill definitely say that the FT Tutor does NOT have the typical dihydral angle that many trainers have.

@jasonhurdlow6607

2 жыл бұрын

You can build the wing with as much dihedral as you want. But I will say that the stock dihedral is fine. Just maiden-ed one yesterday with the 3-channel configuration and it flew great. My son had a hoot flying it. It has about the same dihedral as the old well-loved HH SuperCub trainer.

@jasonhurdlow6607

And if you want multiple wings with different dihedral, just trace the wing parts onto foam board and build as many as you want.
