This Plane looks incredible. That was a beautiful skip over the puddle Landing. I loved that.

Yea Fitz is like "I'll just add this happy little plane kit to my garage over here.."

I remember when I was younger I wanted to get into this. Then finally when I was in Highschool in 2007 my Stepdad and I pulled the trigger. We were halfway done with building it and he passed away from a bad heart. I never finished the plane as I couldn't bare to look at it. I really wish I would have stuck to it.

No better way to pay homage then take that step and build one and put it in the air. Sorry to hear about your loss, but the best we can do is remember and keep moving forward.

There’s something with your voice which makes me want to listen to you, it’s like a voice from Hollywood or radio station, great videos with the way you explain and show things we need people like you sir!

I know, right? I'm in my 50's and haven't built a balsa model in 40 years and only flew control line in the 1970s. But I just can't stop watching HobbyView's videos. Something about his presentations makes me smile inside and out. 😃

I am glad i have found this channel. You are a king.

Where has this Dude been all my RC bird life? Love this guy!

Awesome ! And Sir that laugh as you were flying is one of the best I have ever heard ! Thanks for sharing .

you're a good narrator i could listen to you read the ingredients in a box of cereal

I love your positiveness. The world needs more people like you!

So glad you popped up on my feed new fan here had just watched the build of the hell cat

That's sweet! I'm in the process of trying to decide between the H9 Hellcat or the Seagull models T-28.

The way the sun glints off the fuselage, really special. Good job!

It actually makes a good first war bird because of the hellcats stable design

The Airforce loves your vids too. Livefeed from the Reaper Drone

I love all the sounds it makes

Man that thing really climbs like it own the skies, I like those old warbirds.

That was an excellent landing. You avoided all the puddles perfectly.

I've been waiting for this one. Excellent lockdown viewing. Thank you.

Looks like it flies very nicely. I had an f6f built from a great planes kit many years ago, with an OS91 four stroke. Beautiful flier. I do think scale models should have engines rather than electric power plants though 😁

My favorite plane. Something about the wing shape and it's aggressiveness that drew me to it as a kid.

Hi loving your videos, thanks for taking the time to do these and bring us so much pleasure, I make plastic kits and do flight simming on the PC - one very small thing the aerial on the F6F slants forward not back! Keep up the great work.

Looks Great!. Nice to see her fly. Good job!

outstanding shipmate. Thankyou for supporting this fun hobby.

Total success on this project. Love the F6. Nice job on your video and flying.

Thoroughly enjoy your content. This channel should have many more subscribers. Here's to continued quality content and viewership!

Glad to see you did a follow up video. What a beautiful plane. Again, its nice to see you flying it with electric instead of fuel. I made the switch a few years ago and do not regret it. I remember battling many cranky engines. I think mostly it was because I got hand me down engines from my brother's wrecked planes. A bent shaft never hurt anyone right. Nice flying! I bounce on landing because I am used to dirt or grass runways, not paved. I fly at a glider field and really enjoy it. No trees!

i can tell how happy you are with this build Great Job it's Pretty Cool

Well, "Grumman" always sounded a bit Teutonic, if you asked me... It's been a pleasure to watch, thank you, Mr Walker!

A very nice build and review of a fine looking plane. All the best from Australia

now I want one awesome build

Satisfying conclusion to your great build video. She’s a beautiful bright blue bird. :D

That's 100% exactly how Grumman aircraft were designed and built (and expected) to be landed. No shame. Up to and including the F-14, they were renowned for being indestructible tanks.

I really enjoyed your 2 videos with the Hellcat. Thank you

Nice video! Love the knowledge and info from your builds and video's.

Now to put the Model Sounds Inc sound system into it. It's a great system. Nice flying by the way.

Great to see a Hellçat in flight...I can only imagine what my dad saw when he was a kid in the Philippines...a dogfight between a Hellcat and a Zero while gun shells are dropping from the sky.

Indeed. Must have been quite a sight.

new Video... MUST WATCH IT INSTANTLY!

Expert level plane , and you made it look like silk. Great work and skill!

Love your presentations. So informative and entertaining! Only one criticism my friend...that antenna mast is backwards! The Hellcat mast has a distinctive forward rake like the Wildcat OR it has no rake and is just straight. Again, great job!

Nice flying!

Excellent video. I love all of your videos. Great flying too

really nice looking plane,and a great bld video thanks

The onboard camera footage was great

Nicely done. I like your laughing as you fly You remind me of my father a plane nerd.

You make it all look so easy - You sir are a Master!

Beautiful bird..... well done, and I must say, sir, you have one heck of a gift!!!!!

Nicely done

Great Job with this model plane man! Looks like a blast

I watched both videos. Great job Thank you

Beautiful flight Fitz!

The german anthem at the end... Looks like the pilot's not very good at keeping secrets ;-)

lol and u didnt watch that red and white bracelet under the workbench...

A little pudgy like the Wildcat but way more capable. A guy up the road had one in the late-70's--a real one. And he had an engine failure coming back from an airshow in Washington after refueling in Portland. Almost home...and he and the plane got pretty messed up... Maybe 15 years ago I got a tour and got to sit in that plane. As of ~2 years ago the plane was bought/retrieved and is headed towards a flight-ready restoration. I don't know that I've seen a Hellcat at at an airshow in 40 years but if I see this one fly again its going to be through tears.

Great vid! Well edited. I was gripped!

Hey, your landing missed the puddle... end of story. A perfect landing. It looks fun to fly.

Excellent piloting skills. Impressive!

I like the cockpit TCAS warning "TERRAIN PULL UP".

Thanks for the excellent review

Nice little puddle jumper. Pretty Kitty. 👍🏼👍🏼😎✌🏼✌🏼

I have mine built but in lockdown so I have time to add some details like exhaust pipes and a 3D printed radial engine and landing lights. I had a Corsair but when landing from the east it disappeared when dropping in front of the trees and I flew it into the ground.

really enjoyed watching your video.

Good looking and flying sport scale, nice assembly. Your radio may allow flaperon mixing. Would not expect a huge change, slightly slower, slightly more stable.

You are a Great teacher , Cool stuff

That intro was great!

I prefer the full build myself over arf. Actually prefer building them over flying them. Enjoyed your video and the puddle skip was cool

Great flight video. Thanks for the upload.

Needs a 4 bladed prop to be ideal _Wait, _*_Deutschland Uber Alles is your outro music?_* :O

How could anyone dislike this video?

Awesome flight !

Nice build and flight!

that's a beautiful looking plane!

Dude, Way to go! this was excellent.

great flying, beautiful bird!

your pilot has been award the Knights war merit cross. hahahaha. you threw in the music. i couldnt resist. pretty kitty

Great flying skills!

Very nice job! What a great hobby! Looked like a carrier landing!!

That's a Grumman F6F Hellcat. And remember, the name Grumman on aircraft is like sterling on silver:)

That looks the model runway out at JSC!!

I said you were awesome in the first video. I meant super awesome!!! A noisy transmitter and a perfectly serviceable first landing? I only WISH those were my problems my first time up...

its a Beautiful aircraft and sounds Awesome !

Try putting an arrestor cable across the runway to avoid the puddles!

Good flight review!

what type of video camera did you put on that Hellcat which i notice one looking towards the pilot in the canopy and other one was under the the plane looking forwards at rear landing wheels?

you became my favorite tuber'

Pre stay at home flight...beautiful bird...that spec. 8 is cool i have the spec 6.... nice vid stay safe

That may have been not your best landing, but it's a perfect carrier landing!

Yay

Did you say 10x8 prop @7.42! Are you sure that's right? Sounds really small for that size motor and size/wt of the plane.

@fredrcorlp8154

It should be a 16 x 8 prop.

This one has had my attention for awhile now, but I've been hesitant thinking it wouldn't fly well with electric. Definitely wrong there. I really like your videos. You seem to hit all the areas I'm wondering about.

I had the same question, seeing 15cc in the title, I thought this was a gas model.

Excellent stuff

Excellent! Thanks.

That looked fun !!

Sounds as if you have a stall warning buzzer Fitz?

Great content my brother, you could do voice over work for any pbs documentary

First time viewer. Very well done and entertaining.

I think it would be a nice touch to tell us what the whole kit and caboodle - soup to nuts - workbench to air cost is for a model like this.

Hanger 9 planes are top of the line models. He didn't go cheap with anything although most guys swear by Futaba. Spektrum has really come a long way. He stayed away from the safe receiver which in my book is the smart move here. He didn't need it anyways. Eather way, soup to nuts including transmitter, receiver , battery, plane and other electronics probably close to $1,500- $1,800. Still cheaper than fuel powered engine. Would have pushed it well over 2k.

👊🤝👊 Very nice and thank you so much for your flight review..i can now see myself buying Hanger9 planes later on down the track as i progress with more experinces..and wacthing your Reviews helps us up n comming Rc pilots..thank you so much 💯💯💯💯❤❤❤❤👊🤝🤝🤝🤝

I loved your review! Many LOLZ!

I had just watched your build video for this a couple hours ago and was wondering if there would be a flight review on it. Iv really enjoyed the videos iv watched so far.

Saw one of these in Virginia, that had a weed wacker engine in it. Was so large, my Cavalier King Charles would have fit nicely in the cockpit

On the second landing I thought you was going to do a go around. I watch you put it together, I didn't want to miss her flying. I have never put anything together like this, I am wondering about the motor (?) Could you had use a gas motor ?
