When you wrote "Destory" I thought it was the end of the "story". Tough plane. Great job 👍
You are having fun. Just keep practicing. Thanks for not blaming the aircraft like most
Excellent Flying, especially with the tough conditions in trying to land. Thank you Captain Steve for showing us how to make repairs. Very Interesting.

Glad you enjoyed it
All of the FMS racing planes share the same esc and motor combo. I've got the Voodoo P51 Mustang and swapped out the 4s battery for a SMC HV 6s 2400MAH pack, and replaced the stock 4 blade prop with a 2 blade APC 10X6E prop, and now it easily achieves speeds around 130mph.
If you're not crashing, you're not flying!

So true!
I've flown my drones thousands of times. If I bought something like this, I would probably fly it twice, and then it would spend the next 10 years in it's box.
Sometimes, one can just have a bad day. Nobodys perfect.
Awesome! Would love to see more "fix it" vids. Not that I want you to crash more stuff...
Hot glue is awesome❤
You need to practice cross-cordinating your turns so they are much flatter on the final. Otherwise, you will stall the wing in such steep banks at low speed. Turns on the final should almost be flat with lots of ruder and opposite aileron and throttle to keep the airspeed up cause the cross coordinating causes lots of drag.s
Thanks for showing the repair. You make it look easy. Just curious if you’ve flown it since the repair. How’d the repair hold up?

Hi please review about pavo20 pocket. Thanks.
11:20 That is not a P-51. A P-39 should have a 3 bladed prop. But you should change to a 2 blade if you want more performance.

P51 and P39 made by Flight/FMS use similar if not same parts
looks like a p500
Did you happen to recover your go camera? I didn't see you get it in the video.

When you watched the video of the flight, all that camera footage from on the plane was from the insta360 GO camera, so yes it was indeed recovered or else you would not have seen such footage.

Perfect video from all aspects . Many thanks. @5:19 super smooth flaying pass and go around . I liked it . @9:15 yes that missing yellow part isn’t important but it can rebuild by making exact template made of glow & resin . You just restore it 100% as before 👍🏻

So good u do reviews, otherwise all these crashes u will be broke. Hahaha
I am glad you mentioned in the top corner what time of the year it was filmed because most Americans think Canada looks like this all year round.😅😂 Do you think it would have faired better in the summer? At least everything wouldn't be so brittle, also the angle you came in at was pretty aggressive. The front gear agrees with that.😅😂 Anyways it is a sexy looking plane. Hopefully they listen to your input and address the gear. Also laughed when I looked at the thumbnail. Destory??? You hit so hard that it just destroy it!!!😅😂😅😂

I flew that plane all summer 2023 without incident. As mentioned in the video, when flying on ice one can’t tell where the sky ends and the ice begins.
Holy Crash umm Holy Crap Captain!!!, thank goodness you clarified the Video recording date!; I initially thought "Global Cooling" had come to Canada !!!!; regardless, great looking RC and last but not least, good to see the the Pilot survived the crash landing !!!!!
Can't wait for more mini warbirds from hobby zone/ horizon their last mustang was a HIT! I would love to see retracts on more mini and micro umx planes and jets....sub250g it more popular than ever now let's hope companies will listen🙏🏼🤞🏼 great plane cap👍🏼✌🏼
Nice 👌
Nice repair
nice plane, nice crash, you are mad flying in that weather but this one is not for me, it's made my day. great review again Steve.
Enjoy the weekend
Thank you!
Did you find your camera that you put on the canopy? I don’t recall you mentioning what happened to it. Enjoyed the video and am glad you didn’t completely destroy the plane. 👍👍😀

Yes, that is how I was able to show you the footage of the flight from the camera in this video.
Just needed flaps applied steve for slow flight, Landing configuration.
Strange crash, But thanks for posting.
Yeah, it's a small pet peeve of mine to watch people testing top speed by diving the aircraft.
@CAPTAINDRONE798
16 күн бұрын
There are some goofy channels on KZread where they do exactly that so that they can record the speed with a hiway radar gun...and then announce top speed of the plane model. Silly.
@AerialRCFun
5 күн бұрын
Agreed, it's fairly meaningless number. I also wish folks would be a bit more clear when they are doing speed tests using a compact GPS recorder onboard. These will always record the highest speed achieved during flight so any winds present will add to the top speed recorded. If you have a consistent 10 mph wind you should basically subtract that value from whatever the GPS unit recorded as top speed.
I've flown RC planes for the better part of 36 years. Never owned an already made plane but I've probably built 50 or more planes over the years. Balsa wood, Xacto knife cuts, CA and epoxy and covering. I turned 4 of those back into kit form, never feels good, although I imagine the sting wouldn't be so bad if it were a premade kit ;)
What happened to the camera on plane ?
@CAPTAINDRONE798
16 күн бұрын
It was thrown off but it survived (which is how I was able to show the footage)
If you had used full flaps on your landing the airplane probably would not have slipped out of the air. Use flaps for flying at the slower airspeeds.
Good video shame about your crash
Was it supposed to do that?
Yelp, that was all pilot error. But it should be fixable.
@CAPTAINDRONE798

Was fixed by end of vid (repair was shown)
A little more flaps next time… It slipped right out of the sky.

As per the vid, it is a P-39 but common parts are similar to P-51.
Nice plane. Acting like it's nose heavy.
Hello, if you used flaps on takeoff, why didn't you use them on landing? It's a rookie mistake.
