I love the plane so much, I actually did buy a backup! It's my most flown plane actually. I can't wait to maiden the backup. But the original just won't quit!

Great bird, and have most of the E-Flite branded 1.2 meter Warbirds and find them almost perfect, my favorite being the P-47 Razorback. Absolutely agree on flying RC foamies, I also do RC bash cars, track cars, crawlers and boats. In terms of cost per smiles, RC planes is it. Flying foamies of this type is so much cheaper than any other form of hobby grade RC, I can buy 3 to 4 bind and fly 1.2M foamies for the price of a 10th scale track car. My 100 mph brushless RC boats are probably the most spectacular thing to see in action, but they cost a lot of money to run and fix, the opposite for planes. Buy a decent Spektrum radio, buy a Bind and Fly foamy with SAFE, and you can start flying right away, slowly wean yourself off SAFE as you get better. Though Real Flight Sim is how I got really good at flying.

This video is most inspiring, Brian. Thank you! It's the push I need to keep at it. I've been flying helis and waterplanes forever. And I'm in a rut. They're all slow and scale. Except for the Skipper. So I picked up one of these on sale in February. It is all set up and ready for maiden. But I'm afraid of it because of my lack of time in type. Plus, there is no paved field around here for miles. So flying at the church or school might be all I have. I'm gradually speeding up the UMX fleet in preparation for tackling the P-51. Once the UMX Citation is flying well, I'll bring out June Nite. It feels more doable now.

Don't be afraid, be prepared. Bring the other plane, fly it first, then move up. If you crash, you'll lick your wounds, and glue her back, and get up in the air. It's worth the risk, and you need to do it - it's what you love (if you're anything like me). Make a list of excuses - write them down, then cross them out, and write the solution. This will help, if you want to have a exercise to try. Lists help me get through the day, but when I'm scared or concerned, with any level of validity, I like to write down the issues, and start crossing them off. It helps me process concerns. I may look pretty happy-go-lucky, maybe even reckless, but if you knew me in real life, I'm actually a safety prude, in most regards.

I've watched this video a few times. The slow passes are really nice to watch. The plane looks very solid and smooth (if that makes sense). I'm sure the pilot has a lot to do with it, and the plane looks amazing.

Hey Brian and Camera Crew! Your videos encouraged me to try RC planes as a new hobby. Started with a Mini Apprentice quite a while ago to learn how to fly virtually every day until I was capable to do without safe literally everything except super fancy aerobatics (loops and warbird-ish super tight turns excluded 😜). I LOVED it the second the apprentice was in the air. By now I wanted to add this beautiful P-51D as a second plane. No idea how often I was watching all your videos about it. Today was the maiden. Crashed it. Twice in a row: I had my usual long and solid runway, waited until it started to ascend by itself after many meters to have enough speed (takeoff flaps + full throttle using a smart 3S 2200mAh 30C battery) to get a somehow beautiful scale take off. But as soon as it started to gain some height by itself, in parallel it started to tilt to the left as I would apply a bit of left aileron. A right aileron correction did nothing. The plane continued a left turn until it came down crashing into a bush with lots of thorns luckily just damaging the perfect brand new optic. Safe was on and worked on the ground, so did everything else - until I tried to get it into the air. Wings were perfectly horizontal during takeoff procedure. A bit challenging to control the tail until it lifted off, but nothing unusual from what I've seen from videos of this bird, I'd say. Thinking that maybe SAFE or the gyro had a miscalibration, I reinitiated everything and tried a second takeoff w/o Safe as there was no wind at all. I kept the plane even longer on the ground. After the initial self liftoff I applied very gentle up elevator but literally seconds after this or maybe again in parallel, the exact same thing happened. Just with more distance to the ground and more speed. Thus, the 2nd maiden ended with a broken prop & spinner, a deformed front of the fuselage, flaps that go crazy if I switch from takeoff- to full flaps and last but not least a physically damaged battery I have to discharge and dispose 😭 I am devastated as I have no idea what the heck has happened here. For that kind of troubleshooting I am still too much of a novice, I guess. Sure, at some point it stalled due to this weird continous left turn while actually ascending but why didn't safe correct this turn behaviour in the first place during the first takeoff and why did no compensation input by myself show any signs of...effect - not even the slightest wobble. As if the plane was reduced to elevator and throttle for accepted input controls while airborne. Now, I am afraid to repair the damage just to let the same thing happen again as I have no idea what to improve or keep in mind for a potential third try at some point. If someone has a lead or another suggestion, that would be much appreciated. But I already feel better by processing the successfully failed pseudomaiden by writing this novel 😅 All the best from the other side of the ocean

After two weeks of COVID and time to repair the damage, I just came back from the "2nd maiden". Turned out that I f*** up the CG during the first attempt to get the Mustang airborne. Apparently, I was too stupid to fingertip-check the CG correctly at first. Battery was misplaced by approx. 1,5-2cm so the plane was tailheavy. This time, all perfect. 2200mah & 3200mah battery with proper CG... it flew like on rails. With and without SAFE. Didn't now CG can be such a delicate thing. By know, I now it better :)

This plane is excellently balanced, so it makes it easier, but to be honest, it's all about finesse and having confidence that you can keep on the mains without a lot of issues. Once you "prove it" to your brain, you'll be fine. Just slowly build up throttle and then push the nose down (I know, sounds crazy..but you want to GET in control as soon as possible!) You have to say on the rudder the whole time, and you will get it. The key is to get into the power slower than ordinary. You can give a quick "burst" to get it off the tail wheel, then back it off QUICK, then slowly increase throttle to keep the thing from ripping to the right (usually toward me as the pilot - LOL). Gotta practice a lot, but when you get it, you'll be so proud!

@myksanchez1222

And don't forget to use a shallow take off angle as well. I was so used to my trainers pretty much going vertical with throttle on takeoff that I tried a sharp take off with my Mustang and stalled it in mid air. Roll on the throttle, ease it up with elevator, and then climb out evenly while steadily increasing throttle. Now, if I could only get the courage to try again...

@MrWhatahelisdis

Жыл бұрын

Depending on what transmitter you have, you can program a slow throttle-up speed enough to avoid the left-torque tendency during takeoff. I have the NX8. In the throttle cut menu, there's the option to set a timer for the throttle to activate. What that does is increase the throttle to whatever your stick position is in the timeframe that you set once you flip the throttle cut switch off. As a beginner, I set mine to 5 seconds. With throttle cut turned on still, I would set my throttle stick position to 80%. I would then turn off the throttle cut and the throttle would take 5 seconds to get to 80% power. That gets it up to speed safely so you don't careen off to the left and almost plow through a group of pilots (something I did as a beginner 🤣). Make sure that as it's gaining speed to keep a little up elevator so you don't run the prop into the runway and don't forget to use the rudder! There is a bit of finesse that you will only learn with practice. You may even crash a couple times. You WILL get it though. And when you do, it's a great feeling! I no longer takeoff or land the plane in SAFE or with the throttle cut timer. So if I can do it, you can too!

I don't anymore :(... She went to a home where she would get some much needed attention.

This plane alone is seriously pushing me into trying Rc Flight again. (tried about 10 years ago before all this tech and lost interest pretty quickly) I`m fine on a sim, but i want to try it for real. Think i`ll go for a trainer first though. This looks too nice to dump into the ground!

You should. Easier than ever to convert this SIM SKILL into real life, and when there's REAL pain, and REAL suffering from a REAL crash, you'll be way more nervous and way bigger REWARD when you get her flying. It's HUGE for me, this feeling of actual accomplishment that can't be SIMULATED on a simulator ;) Get out there and try something simple to get started...

Thanks for the recommendations 👍 I was already considering the Carbon Cub. The Trojan looks good too. I’ll check out the video. Best to go with the Nx8 or will the Dx8e be ok?

It's never been easier to learn to fly RC. If you're just getting into it, I recommend starting off with one of HH's Ready-to-fly (RTF) planes like the AeroScout or either one of the Apprentices. I prefer the mini apprentice since it's more transportable yet big enough to be a club flyer.

The way I fly I am not willing to spend that much money. Sure is a nice plane.

This plane is not too terrible, but it's definitely an "everyday flier"

How about equipping it with some mini paintball guns 😃

Love the plane once I can get it in the air. Problem I have is I fly at a club that has grass. We maintain really short but its a serious hassle (lots of broken props) to get in the air. No matter what I do. Up elevator at 150 percent, full flaps, no flaps. Have had to resort to hand lauch with help of course if I have someone else there that I trust. Any ideas would be GREATLY appreciated. Btw I have the same problem with the same size F4U Corsair. Which Brian took a page out of you're book and had to repair the top tip of the rudder cause trying to take off got feed up and just punched it so it flipped. Lol...please any help. I really love these two planes. They fly soooooo awesome.

Have you tried shimming the gear? There was a post on RCGroups about putting washers under the rear mounting screws for the gear. This rakes the gear slightly forward, making grass takeoffs easier.

@johnberrios4255

@@christhompson6606 I haven't tried that. I'm guessing washers in the neighborhood of like 3mm. That might help just the retracts wouldn't close all the way. The back side would be sticking out a little. Which I don't care as long as I can get them in the air. I will try that and let you all know if it works.

I sometimes have to push them to get them from sticking in the grass and pivoting over. The other option might be to take a couple chunks of cardboard our and use that for the first couple feet - I know many guys with grass fields will have a tarp pulled tight, or a geotextile fabric for even a small section for edf's and the like. Might be worth looking into.

Жыл бұрын

HH - hands down. I love Arrows stuff, and it's NOT bad, but this 1.2m is just enough better that it's an easy call. There have been OTHER choices that are not so clear, but definitely for this one, and admittedly, the F-4U too. Not to take anything away from Arrows 1.1m Warbirds - they are very nice too... Horizon Hobby P51 bit.ly/3ohT4zT - Also keep in mind BNF, rather than PNP - easier and more of a sure thing Arrows P51 bit.ly/3bgcH8l - Might be a little bit less expensive??? But it's actually a smaller plane too. Almost not a "fair" comparison.
