You guys crack me up... by far my favorite KZread channel. I always look forward to your episodes!

This show makes me happy. Good stuff guys. Keep them coming!

One of the few youtube intros I watch through in these classics

Josh makes a great straight man. Just so happens I started elec conversion on my 49 year old airomaster last night.

Really enjoy your videos. I'm new at these rc planes. So thanks for all the info. You guys make it interesting to watch. keep up the good work.

Love converting my dads old gas or glow planes to electric. Great vid!

Great video as usual! Keep up the good work guys!

I have been flying "WET" starting in 1959. .049 C/L plastic then balsa Flat, then to build-up Balsa. A couple of .35 powered C/L planes. 1976 first Radio, been flying R/C since then. 1/2A 2 channels,powered with .049 engines. Yank and bank flying at it's best. 1/12th Scale P-51 25 BB, and a couple of 60 in WS planes with .46 BB in them. Finally a 48x36 Blended Lifting Body powered with a .25 BB. I really like the power, flight time, and the sound of the engine running. Weight saving too with out the Batteries.

"why don't we expose our motor" Josh Scott......*awkward face* hahahah priceless

Thanks for this vid. Helped me out a lot with some of my consernes of switching to electric

Great video on the Thunderbolt conversion. Is is possible to convert the Black Horse HAWKER HURRICANE 55cc with 2.21m wingspan model to electric?

Good stuff, and back before the BIG DIRT PILE!

Great, informative video! Thanks for posting! Which motor mount are you using in that Hangar 9 P-47 60 size?

Great episode guys, keep up the good work, ur by far the best channel on KZread!!! As for gas or electric power plants u have to weigh the pro's an con's for the type of flying u want to do and how deep ur pockets are... Gas as we all know longer flight times cheap to run, cons oil residue everywhere an can be problematic running... Electric pros quick to get flying, quite running clean, cons quality electric running gear is not cheap nor are descent battery's an charge equipment,

I'm working on a GOGTEC plane as we speak it's a great planes combat corsair 1/12 size. perfect timing guys. love that plane she's a sweet beast.

9:50 josh scotts reaction priceless

Turbine is the ultimate, great sound and no mess :P

hmmm one of my current projects is elec to Gas lol I would love a Gas engine that generated elec as well I used to always skip your intro, funny now I listen to it feels comforting hhaha

Hi guys nice vid! Question here ! Im converting my hangar 9 p51 mustang to electric i have a turnigy power60 500kv any idea on the motor mount i can use ?

"You don't want people laughing at you.'' LOL. Priceless

such a quiet plane!

what motor mount are they using for that power 60?

You guys have you ever thought of do it the A10 with edf

Nice!

We need more nitro + gas planes on Flite Test...

Lets just leave those real toys to the adults. I've had two electric guys attempt to amputate their fingers in my .65 nitro's prop just this year! Lucky for them it was at idle both times. Still, wasn't pretty! I just don't think its a hobby for your typical dumbass that is catered too on FT

could you please make a video on how to properly trace plans?

what motor mount was used for the off-set?

good to know you have your watching and listening skills.

could yall tell us about the battery placement like where to glue the cushen foam and how u did the battery hatch?

Lol gogtec Good one guys. Been contemplating this with my corsair. Thanks! :-)

How about comparing performance in cold, hot weather and flight times. Lipos dont like the cold. I only flew electric so far. considering gas for winter.

nice video

negative ghost rider, it was made as a nitro kit a long time ago, before it was an ARF and before it was electric. Mine is built with a glue older than CA, the kind you had to wait for. It it very old and I have a few videos of it flying. Ran it into a street sign already and repaired the wing, it's lots of fun.

would this also work with cp helis?

no redundancy if you lose esc?

you got some good points there but i like gas and that was funny

waba wabawoommm YOU ARE MY HERO . You 2 Joshua.

Look at josh at the right when josh left is making the engine sounds :D

Very Cool!!! How about making a video on adding scale SOUNDS to it? Starting sound, engine sounds, etc..

Did you hardly show the p47 on purpose? What did you set down on the ground before take off? Cool plane back at the work bench though!

Downside to it being quiet, is it's quiet, there's no sound, where's the fun in that?

I love the smell of nitro in the morning.

It would be helpful to us Neanderthal nitro guys if you can explain the needful things switching to electric, like EPS etc. some of us don't know the acronyms. thanks

I vote for electric. I do like the sound of fueled planes. Josh, I think you could fly anything! I liked the no nonsense video...

@hondacota4rt yea, that doesnt really answer my question, what do we do if we do need to cool the battery, would have being good to cover all scenarios for us so we know what to do, just cause it was ok for them ?

Where I bought these glasses ?? Nice video ??

Loved it!! you guys sell these planes?? I'm not really a builder.

You can tell he didn`t have his vvvrrrvvvaboom tweeked very good. heheheh remember to GOGTEC .The acronym for the day. hahaha Great stuff guys.

What plane is that? From horizon hobby??

We love balsa!

Did you put a 60 or a 80 esc at one point i think you said 80amp at 2:51??

Great conversion. What do you think about converting a mustang? I mention it because the flight characteristics are great if the plane is perfectly balanced...I think the mustang would be hard to get the right weight with the "GOGTEC" considering it needs to be soooooooo nose heavy. Can i make an unofficial request to make a GOGTEC p51D Mustang? Thanks, and great job!

Hey, Could you make a review of the HobbyKing Atom Mini Glider. You could make a challenge with that plane or one of your choice: 50km/h under 50 bucks.

Joshua would know all about people laughing at him wouldn't he! : )

I picked up a SIGG senorita at a swap meet for 15 bucks, put a .40 size brushless replacement in there from grayson hobby and the thing flies like a bat out of hell and floats like a glider, I really want to put my FPV gear in it, so much fun...

u guys should review an electric 3Dhs 71 inch slick

When josh B said that he went from glow to electric I cried slightly.

Me too:(

This intro is too good

This episode was very gogtecy

Could you guys do a gas vs electric

whats the weight difference?

@Bolle90 That's why you buy your batteries from Hobbyking where they are 1/4 the price.

I love the smell of gas and glow planes. I started flying electric but since I have bought my first glow plane it´s not the same anymore (3 weeks later I started to build the next one). I love the sound and the way it flies much better. For me electric will never be the same again :D

Thats not true that gas fly better than eléctric, more real may be, for many reasons eléctrics fly much better

Nice plane. You spoke a lot about vent holes in the cowling for cooling the motor and ESC, but I couldn't tell from the video if you had air exit holes. It's all very well to have air entry, but if the air can not flow through it, ventilation will not work efficiently. You may even be compressing air in the cowling? But - if you did put exit vents - then maybe you should explain this to others viewing you video please.

haha josh said we don't do gas here do we.. then gosh says, not yet. and today they finally showed gas=D

That's 6 gallons of glow fuel. The battery and fuel will probably last the same amount of time. Right?

whats the difference between gas and glow?

I would change mine to electric in a heartbeat however it seems almost impossible to figure out what and how. The pain of getting all the kit ready and the thing running keeps me grounded most of the time now. Too little time. I really wish someone would sell a gas to electric conversion kit, Complete. Almost all my crashes have been due to engine flame out, Unless your are flying daily the glow motors are just too temperamental. Last flights with my ultimate Biplane with a Super Tigre 90 have all ended with engine quitting. and a wrecked aircraft.

@inciteman You missed the sound effects at 9;50. lol

cool

I have a 40 and a 60 size p51 that I want to do this to but I want the hatch on top because I want the battery to be horizontal not vertical. Not really sure how to accomplish that. Both planes are beautiful so I really don't want to screw them up.

If you take some tabs and soder and aaa batteries and soder your own battery pack you can plug it into you reciever and now you have a backup if you wax explodes or fails.

Gas sounds better than eletric.

Nothin smells better than burning nitro fuel.

Preach it brother!!!!

I actually had a gas or glow plane for my 3rd plane

Yeah it's quiet but when you lose track of your plane that noisy gas/nitro engine will help you find it!

Josh & Josh The Laural and Hardy of model aviation

Josh Bixler, Is the P-47 your favorite warbird? You seem to talk them up to be really nice flying planes. It is personally my favorite, but I like all of the warbirds out there except the spitfire.

@7jsm7 My messer agrees with you especially on the spitfire

@wtmcgehee You may not notice this with small park fliers but when you get into larger 60 size and plus you will notice the decrees in speed/power through-out the flight

Why is this age restricted?

Please make a p47 swappable

Ok he liked that..lol 👍👍👍👍😁😁😁😁silly Willy

how about a conversion tutorial?

if your thinking of going electric from glow, do some homework, but a watt meter, and most of all find a person who knows how to do this. You can very easily destroy a valuable plane if you do it wrong or if you dont get it just right you can have very short flight times and poor performance. Like I said, do your homework and get some help. Josh/Josh- good video and a sweet plane, it just wouldnt hurt to accurately convey how much goes into an electric conversion.

U-bec for esc failure and still have control. 😀🇳🇱

450 heli on the TV! Planes are cool, but helicopters need the flite test treatment!

@sterby1 lol yeah I don't ever want to fly a spitfire, there are so many stories of bad bad characteristics causing a crash. I don't want to crash my expensive planes, and I like the bigger warbirds which are a little more expensive than most other planes out there. I think I want to buy a Stuka this summer.

how come the batteries didnt need cooling ??

and please oh please do a real gas to elec conversion. The turnigy aerodrives can be = to a 26cc to over 50cc. That would be amazing to see. Thanks again

Fear the "ONE WHOM MUST BE OBEYED!!!"

Do more "GAS" plane revews

Converting my 40+ year old fuel soaked planes to electric. Works great! Clean and cheep..................p

ba ba ba bamm lol

@thechoosendude Well it's not lame if you're not rich. And, if you usually don't have much time to maintain it. And, electric is more efficient.

yes one thing how long does a electric last 20 mins.... 120 dollars a battery....

i think you spelt electric wrong in the description ;)

They want to make it scale well damn put on the right prop if it's a p-47 or p-51 it better have a four blade prop if it's something that big with the micros it's a little more understandable

@Bolle90 60 glow engines actually weigh in the range of 700 grams. Let's do some math and see what the reality is... Fuel Weight = 200 grams, Engine = 700 grams, Total = 900 grams at full capacity. Electric Power 60 motor = 380 grams, 5000mah 6S Battery = 800 grams, Total = 1,180 grams at all capacities. Seems like electric power is 30-40% heavier than glow power, depending on the fuel left in the tank.

@shelby02403 But this is a Horizon Hobby sponsored video, so they have to use electronics made by Horizon.

I can't believe they had this second Josh on the channel for so long. Literaly only adds immature jokes and says ok
