I have this plane and I found, as some have, that it requires a fairly significant amount of nose weight to balance it. With lead on the cowl it flew wonderfully.

Nice video mr . Like that you tell what u do and now noise in the background. And that plane was flying nice

Don"t worry about whether it is boring or not! As long as it is flying, it is never boring! Enjoyable video my friend, thank you!!!

Great looking model and I really like the weathering you've done. I'm sure you'll get this little bird sorted for flight again soon.

@@blowy48flyrc no problem brother. Your videos are not just about flying but teaches so much more about the hobby self (setup, build, unboxing, spraying, gyro etc).....This helps a lot and makes your channel very special :)

Nice looking plane! Two suggestions....(1) fill a very small balloon with water (about the size of a small cigar) and freeze it. Place in next to the electronics. Amazing how it keeps it cool. (2) You can get Golf club weights through Amazon (pack of thirty) which are fantastic strips which can be cut and placed in some very tight spaces. Happy Flying.

Thanks that's some new ideas. Amazon Australia is crap we been waiting for it to be fixed so I go to ebay

This one looks good mate because the original zero only has a 3 blade prop..with the yellow tips..the zeros that attached pearl harbor. Had No yellow on the tips on the propellers..they were just plain aluminum in color..with just a thin red stripe close to the tip of the propellers..if you paint that on the propellers..it will look even better..and more authentic. My good friend..and PS..MAKE YOUR SELF A FOLDING CARD BOARD TAKE OF LANDING PAD AND THAT WILL COVER YOUR GROUND TAKE OFFS AND LANDINGS. SO THAT YOU DON'T HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT THE LANDING GEAR GETTING DAMEGED ON GRASS TAKE OFFS AND LANDINGS...WHAT DO YOU THINK MY GOOD FRIEND..???

The zero were ahead of their time with aluminium prop blades and I don't think I could land on a piece of cardboard I'm not that talented but take off's would be nice

Cut the holes/slots in side of fueslage for air, if it's a bit thin just reinforce it on inside with a bit of Balsa/plywood 👍

Yes great idea to reinforce around the cutting thanks I have been trying to find something to look like exhausts to put on sides

For the exhaust, if you have an old small carbon tube laying around cut some exhaust tips. maybe paint them silver/grey or something.

Yes weight is a problem so I thought about the 30amp in the zohd its tiny

I'm gonna call its that propeller, My F4u uses the 4 blade and it will haul a$$ , then ill use a 2 blade and ill notice like a 30% decrease in speed at 100%. If its motor shaft diameter is 3mm maybe test out a 4 blade prop from fms 800mm series? Cheers! Great Vid!

@blowy48flyrc

I think it is a bit over powered so a 2 blade is the way to go

why does this model need so much ballast.? btw, whenever a manufacturer puts a 'scale' prop on a model that should have an E prop, there is a risk of weirdness. of some sort.

try a different esc

Having to add 68 g with a 3s means it's incredibly badly designed
