My Dad is a Goodyear retiree, and I have many fond memories of Wingfoot Lake Park. We would have his union picnics there every year when I was a wee person! Oh, and you gotta love the black squirrel at about 2:40.
This is GREAT!! Planes like these and you having such fun with them is what we love about Flitetest. Keeps us wanting more. Keep up the great fun and adventure for you and all of us.
You guys never cease to rock! I've never seen a video that I wasn't entertained by or that I didn't learn something. What more could you ask for?
Great, you guys should hold on to Peter at all cost

Love it! Will be my next winter build soon. Already built the FT Guinea Pig and thought it would take time, but your build videos are just so amazing and easy to follow and before I knew it, it was done and painted! I can see my hanger getting many of the scratch built swappables over the next year and will have to sell some helicopters to make room!
That’s one of the main things I really love about your planes- its so much less stressful to crash it. For a few bucks in materials you can just build another one. Really good job keeping the hobby light and fun guys.
Wow, Great plane Peter. Flite Test always delivers. Dig it!
My favorite two channels combined!!
Awesome 60 fps footage! It made the planes a lot easier to follow and the video was so smooth!
Did anyone else see the squirrel at 2:45 !? 😆

Make a plane based off of the a-10 warthog and call it the FT-10 Warthog or something idk but would be awesome to see a dual edf plane!

Omg. I have been looking for something like this forever!! Instant build!
Yes! Thank you Peter. I'll download the plans asap.
SWEEET!!!!! Loved the woods flying. You guys are a Blast... WTG Peter!!
I think I've found my next plane! Awesome job Peter and Flitetest gang!
I noticed a change in the filming aspect of the video. I am thoroughly impressed with both the plane and the video. Good job Eric and Peter :)
I love the camera work in your videos, especially in this one!
This show is so deeply satisfying. Thank you for sharing your passion and wealth of knowledge with the world.
so ive built a few of these planes now with the c pack power kit from flite test i have been playing with different landing gear set ups and a bomb drop but this plane is fantastic to fly around and even taxi through the grass and such. now a big reason i love this plane is i crash a lot and it can take a serious beating espicially with some reinforcing in the body. great job guys ima keep on building them!
you guys are doing such a great job. keep it up
Ordered on can't WAIT!!!
This airplane really is a nice rendition of the Just Superstol. You guys should stop by their factory on your next trip South. Really nice folks there.
Loved it! Bushwacker looks great!
I CAN NOT WAIT TO BUILD ONE!!! It reminds me of the Twisted Hobbies Crack beaver! Super stol like plane with 3d capabilities! Great job Peter! :)
Good production. great music. great job Josh X2 and my favorite foam and tape. great job. U have a career to follow for.sure.
Josh: "... if you're watching this right now..." lol
Never cease to amaze!
Just might be the best design yet from FT :)
Woah! 60fps looks great! I feel like i'm there with you guys
Best plane yet imo. can't wait to hopefully build one!!!!!
Floats PLEASE!!!!! If you get floats plans for this, it would be so much more awesome!
Well, I was going to build the Guinea Pig, but now I might have two planes to build. This thing is awesome!! Great design Peter!!
Great work as always guys! Keep it up!
This flyer is so cool and it's so much fun, even if I can only watch you two.
Finally 60fps, thank you!
so very cool guys, I love all your videos. well done on another awesome video!
peters plane is marked "N556". always gotta put in some sort of ar15 reference, i love it
Peter was the Bomb man! That guy is smarter than a whip!!
Great design peter
love it guys! will be my next build...
Great vid. Love the planes.
instead of my dog, this bushwacker is perfect for a walk through the park
So glad to know others enjoy this kinda flying as i still do.. Im 34 and been flying since i was in 6th grade. Ive never lost the interest. Id love to have one of them fpv camera setups.. Id never stop flying.
Just bought it. Cant wait to build and fly it!
Ft Mighty mini bushwacker plz
Great stuff! Just put in an order. Now after watching this can't decide what wing to do-the spins on Josh's are awesome! :)

Cool plane with an awesome name too!
720/60 is awesome. It was a very pleasant surprise to see that from ya'll. Yeah so I went back and watched it in 1080/60 and love that too.
Loving the prop-in-slot Canard in the background at 7:06 :D
Good episode. Nice camera work.
Thanks for filming in 60+ fps :)
There needs to be a leading edg slat kit for this
I love Peter's designs. I could fly that in my front yard.
Ok, you showed a new sport in this video - dual FPV. The multi FPV has to provide eyes for the plane in an obstacle course or race. That was great video as the multi drafted behind the bushwacker. "Tandem FPV racing."
Looks like to much fun and I want to get one of those myself.
Cool Plane, Peter does it again.
totally going to build one of these!!!
Ilike these guys very informative and very thorough!
Ive been waiting for this plane
This episode really didn't disappoint guys Peter really did a great job with this one well be picking this one once I get more room in my hanger that's really too bad about inverted&knife edge doesn't work to well on this bird dough but hey you can't have all sometimes!
Well done!!!
Man I wish we had one of these on our last trip out to an abandoned smelter!
I'm sure I speak for most we miss David but Peter does a awesome job filling his shoes
They look Hella Fun! Awesome crash by the way.
JEEEEEEEEEEAH, cool plane! Gonna make one. And peter, man, your cool!
There was is a guy in Alaska that lands and takes off a full scale version from mountain tops. He only needs 10 ft of runway, even if that 10 feet is at a 40 degree angle.

Big Rocks and Long Props. Also you might enjoy watching the Valdez STOL competition.
Now put it on floats
I need to try that. I went from helicopters to drones and don't like the drones inability to maneuver like the helicopters; but that looks like fun.
Very cool. I'd like you guys to do a segment on Alex. What he's using to do the video, and tips on how to get the final product to come out so smooth.
The beginning of this video proves that Josh Bixler breathes, sleeps, and eats RC planes...
A fun video. Thanks!
INTEOUS! i have to agree, to get peter or josh to design something along the lines of an A-10 would be awesome! i would certainly build that! i am having way to much fun with a FT versa/pusher/blunt nose conversion fpv rig i just built. I love it, i have the cheap fatshark teleporter v3's at the moment, but love the way this wing flies.
Awesome plane!!!!
Want! Great flying, :)
Awesome , i saw a picture on instagram a few days ago of this plane. I just wanted to ask when the vid came online and now it is. AWESOME JOB PETER!!!!
The bushwacker looks a little bit like the hobbyking tundra, which i loved (it is still not available, but they showed it off at the eu tour). But now i think i will be building the bushwacker instead. Looking forward to the build video and the plans.
Have you guys ever thought of releasing a CD of your music scores? The background music is well played and rather soothing.

great little plane does it handle much wind great videos
60FPS!!? Loving it!
I like the new frame rates!
I would like to see you pin on some leading-edge slats to one of the versions to show the aerodynamic change. one of the real aircraft based on this style had the slats, and another does not. slats (fixed or movable) and vortex generators are commonly used to correct problems with the handling and/or aerodynamics, and work just as well in RC than they do full size (but may need some tweaks lol). what I suggest for testing on a number of planes is to cut from balsa wood, or you can actually cut a rectangle from an aluminum can, and then cut a line of the vortex generator shapes, which can be as simple as "[ x > > > > > > > > x ]" and then bending the ">" up. (the x are tacks or tape) then all you need to do is to is attach the vortex generator shapes to the upper wing with simple tack's for testing the best distance from the leading edge to the trailing edge (typically.. if you were to draw a line on the middle of the wing.. the vortex generators work best at the middle , or half way from the middle to the leading edge, or someplace in between on bother wings...) they also help on the rudder, and elevator. for there you should be able to get away with using some thin but stiff wire.. for the rudder, you can stick a line of them all the way thru, and cut them off the same length.. and use the wire on the elevator too... don't get crazy with them. and they tend to work better further forward than you find on wings. if you make a number of the aluminum can vortex generators, you can also test them on the sides and bottom of the fuselage. the vortex generators are very simple... they make little vortex's, causing the air to stick closer to the wing or fuselage, making the aerodynamic surfaces work better. if you have a model that's hard to fly, you may only need some vortex generators (or slats) to improve the handling, or to make a good plane even better. they work really good on rc planes that are hard to land, and for cargo planes. give it a try.....
I think I will have to order a few of these for a group build. :)
Will you guys ever test a real gas powered jet? Also when will we get a FliteTest West? I love the show and the planes!
new camera? looks really great.
I go to that Park all the time
You should use Peter's cargo plane to do some Furious 7 stunts
How about a foam version of the original Wright Flyer.

This looks like one of the best "backyard flyers" you guys have made in a while. Good for small spaces, but lots of agility, and hopefully not too hard to build. Now that that is done, on to the Versa Copter. (can you tell that I am a bit anxious?)
100% going to get the speed bulid kit
looks very light! you should try variable pitch or collectible pitch system.
The "B" in subtle... is silent.

now another plane I must build. my wife is not going to be happy.
Video quality 10/10
Well done guys! Can we have the plans? Thanks
At 2:45 the squirrel in the background breaks the sound barrier!
