Can you guys get some more big planes to shoot down? The apple cannon was so cool!

This is a great video. One of the best use types, not only for the supplies and materials but the use of the 360 cams on such big birds that the WOW factor is really nice. Definitely more of this. Maybe fly all of the airworthy oddballs at one time. The tank was epic and a big machine.

My Dad was assigned to C-47 WWII. I really like this

Would love to see more How To videos on how cheap and easy it would be to join you guys in the Hobby! Always thought it looked awesome and fun, and I'm definitely enjoying flying my Mini 3 Pro Drone for shooting Content for my channel(s) here on KZread! I'd love to make some sweet Geeky designs! ❤️🙏🤞

I’d suggest watching the older flite test video’s

The cub was amazing tail up at 3 feet and wheels off at5 .and the DC 3 doing all that at half throttle is awesome

People in other countries are having so much fun. Here in Turkey, we are just watching those who are having fun. It's like we've come to this world to watch those who are living this life. 🙁

I love your videos ❤ Keep going !

Thank you for making such good videos you got me into flying and flight and watching your videos taught me about flight

This is my fav ever!!!!! What a beautiful plane!

Thank you for bring us those amazing planes. Truly inspiring. I doubt I’ll ever make one that big but it does give me something to shoo 13:04 t for. And they fly so nicely. I guess it’s true that the bigger ones do fly better.

Yet another great video. It's amazing what you all have built using mostly foam board and other common, inexpensive materials. And these planes are beautiful too and so majestic. If only I didn't live in an apartment in NYC, I could build one of these.

I was flabbergasted to see a gaggle of big foamies! Flabbergaggled!!! Great video FT and co. AirHammer out!!

Great video. The air to air shots are awesome.

The Skytrain looks great!

I had an aristo fly back in the 70s with a weak liquid cell battery it barely had the power to keep in the air. And it was built using balsa sticks and glue membrane covering to keep it super light weight, the new electrics are crazy better and simple

That plane is so huge I could easily see the shadow on the ground!

So cool! You guy's did great!

Awesome flying, love all the models 👍

DC-3 vuelo a escala... fantástico.

Great job guys those planes look sweet.

Thanks

I just 💚 the SkyTrain/Dakota.

Luv u guys

Beautiful work Jason! Looking forward to seeing that C-47 in person at FF23!

The DC-3 is epic. What a superb airplane.

Totally Awesome 👍🏼😎

That was awesome guys

It’s nice to have such videos but I miss the real old school videos so much. Just something that you can really build on a budget and the motivation they had to get people into the hobby with cool and simple build projects and projects like the laser fights. Less focused on sponsorship and air shots of projects that are impossible to recreate. Would like to see more of the building of small planes and small scope challenges. Still a great channel tho!

Once again, I would love to go to Flite Fest, but it's a few days too early. Still teaching school in NY.

Great 👌👍

I can see monster speed build kits being a future!!!

very nice video👍

I love that C-47, all needed are some paratrooper leaping out and floating down to the ground. Are you guys going to offer plans for giant scaled rc planes on the website? Preferably 1/6 scale? I love these bigger scale planes as a 1/6 scale modeler. I can't wait to make my 1/6 scale German glider plus more aircraft in the future. Thanks for sharing guys, awesome planes!

Nice birds.😊

Great community!! As long as that is active, this country will be a-ok. 👍IMO

Amazing with no rudder movement.

It is a foam model, it is heavily over-powered like the majority of models, and therefor you may fly it with whatever you want. You have flying Snoopy houses, flying pigs and flying chairs, everything flies with an engine in front.

I wanna see an old-school foam meat tray airplane build. Take a trip to the supermarket, barbecue the meat and use the trays to build planes. Maybe even cannibalize an old CD-ROM drive for the motor.

Congratulations 🎊 👏 💐 🥳, Jubilation to see get together of so many Aeromodelling enthusiasts, May God Almighty Bless these Gifts 🎁 of innovations Scholars, researchers,

Those are insanely cool! So what's the story on restoring and painting the real airplane at the field?

❤❤

Great builds!! It would be awesome to figure out a way to drop paratroopers out of that C-47... 🤔

I'd love to see you guys do a build of an edf V1 flying bomb..... Would be a cool as hell build, could even make an fpv bombing game out of it

Was hoping this would be a one day build challenge: make a plane using only $X at the local hardware store 😄

First from cambodia

Awesome video, but we expect no less.

Will there ever be another flight fest south? That was a very special memory for my son and I and we would love to do it again, but the trip up to Ohio is a bit much.

One of the first

First nice vid like always

How do you set up multiple receivers so they don't duplicate the same channels? Or is that it? Same 8 channels at each receiver, just avoiding the wires.

Needs a stick of paras to drop

hello, may i ask , What size and Kv of the Brushless motor you are using to power that big green rc plane? ?

For the forth of July you guys should make a fire cracker bomb or firework missiles, just a thought

Where are you located "

Can you make the Jedi interceptor?

Hello! I hope this isn’t a dumb question but is the FT adventure micro (PNP) out of stock or is it discontinued. I was looking into getting it as a first plane after seeing how wonderfully it flew and went to get her in the video. But when I went to the store to purchase it, it was nowhere to be found. I just want to know if it’s out of stock or something different. Thanks!

Hey hour club yay

I went to website but doesn’t show how and where to buy tickets to the event.

Have y'all tried to make an R/C plane that would be capable of flying a person?

It seems like all the content now is designed as a add. Flite test is what introduced me to rc aviation. If the focus felt geared toward sales instead of growing the sport and love of diy rc flight I would have never considered trying it out due to the cost and complexity of diy models at times. Flite test is feeling like it has shifted dramatically from the original focus ( introducing new blood to the hobby for minimum effort. Best wishes ❤️

@@andrewasdel4230 Old school modelers often cared more about the "object" itself than about the sheer "performance". The takeoff of the DC3 clearly showed lack of directional, and from a "likeliness" point of view it would not have gained any points from a jury. A pity, since from a distance the model makes a perfect show. With a plane THAT big you can add a real rudder and even working trimming tabs with liitle additional work. If you want to be cool and "millennial" add a gyro to the differential, at least the plane will take off straight along the runway.

Hello, I don't know if someone can help me but I have a problem with an rc plane. The pwm servo output on the omnibusf3v3(sd) board does not work, the board is receiving a signal from the receiver and processing it but there is no pwm output for the neither for the servos nor for the motors, there is only pwm for the output marked as motor when i use the motor test mode, and the 5v and gnd servo rail is working, the program i use to program it is the betaflight program, how do i do it I solve? thanks if anyone helps

Any concern with tip stall? DC-3 famous for it.

@andrewasdel4230

Жыл бұрын

The DC-3 is famous for a relatively high stall speed and stalling just after takeoff. This is easily overcome by simply not allowing the aircraft to rotate until sufficient airspeed is achieved and not slowing down too much, especially in a turn.

@@andrewasdel4230 You know perfectly well that airfoils are only ONE of the problems in a model, and even so they are almost always misunderstood. A certain airfoil, NACA or else, has a meaning only in SOME size and conditions, some fluid density, some structural and elastic properties of the wing, some speeds, some Reynold's numbers. If you can project a NACA profile "corrected"for all the above factors, chapeau. If you can build a foambord wing witha THAT exact profile, double chapeau. Otherwise you fall on the usual "Clark-Y-ish" profile that is the Jack-of-all-trades of model planes wing profile. You have all the rights of being sophisticated in your models, but you must pay a high price in study, project time and building accuracy.

How can anyone claim to build a "Mustang" without a proper laminar wing?

Great to see another big C47 in the air. shame no one uses the Whiskey 7 livery. That plane sits just over the hill from me in the National Air Museum in Geneseo NY. I get to see it in the air pretty regular during summer months as they book rides for the public. If I am not on the computer or messing around with guitars in some form or other I can sometimes here it fire up for pre flight run ups.

Can I buy the ww1 plane

I'm feeling dumb, why does the plane need 4 receivers? redundancy?

These are not simple easy to buy parts from a hardware store! Where are all the OG FT guys? Guess they must just have a high turnover rate! Lol

Very nice, but you keep saying B-17? sure you mean DCS3?(no.wikipedia.org/wiki/Douglas_DC-3) the B-17 is a completly different aircraft and has 4 engines no.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boeing_B-17_Flying_Fortress

No offence, but your next to nothing is a lot different than mine... just the cost of the batteries make this very expensive to people in my budget range. So, while this is something achievable, I would not say it costs next to nothing... pretty rad though.
