Man I can't believe its been 12 years of watching u guy I remember the days of you guys in the garage reviewing hobby king planes and the spitfire and all the original planes you guys really have raised and grown a community. I was 14 when first found you guys on your first year making videos and im 26 now

@@emerychandler yea sadly i dont find the videos there they did a interview with everyone in the crew at the time, and all the video´s then David was visiting USA for a longer period of time. those are RELY good imo. but they are gone, i hope they just made them "unlisted". But if you click on the "main page" here on YT for this channel and click on the tab "Videos" there is videos that is 11 years old.. but i having a hard time find some of the episodes i am thinking on. cuz i think they was more fun to watch than this new stuff..

Flite Test projects never fail to get me in the mood to build. Its such pure joy on a limitless scale! Thanks again and always

This video is just pure joy 🤩 thanks for putting GO 2 through it’s paces, we can’t wait to see what takes to the sky next!

The enthusiasm Josh shows on every video validates your comment that "he's STILL a little kid", watching him makes me smile, a lot.

Hi guys, another fantastic build! You are an inspiration to many. I just have one concern: please do amp checks. I don’t mean “fly it and note the mAh consumed”. I would like to see you put a watt meter between the battery and ESC then test the current draw. This should always be done with electric flight because the power draw is so sensitive to prop selection. You have a large audience, so let’s teach them this vital habit.

I don't know whether it's camera distortion or what, but when that plane is in the air it looks like there is some anhedral to the wing. If that is being induced to the wing somehow through fluid dynamic warping due to slipstream that could be why roll performance is lacking. The whole wing structure itself could benefit from a bit of dihedral positioning, IMO, that would improve roll rate - say about 3-4 degrees at the root. It would also stabilize lift characteristics. But solid, huge, awesome airplane guys! Love the color scheme! Rock on!!

Yeah I though I noticed that aswell. for such a large wing you would have though there would natural dihedral flex, but.. thats a STIFF wing!

Love the huge builds! Has anyone at FT experimented with stippling or golf ball indentation designs on their planes? It helps round balls fly farther and straighter… maybe a plane would be cool to take advantage of the golf ball dents!

It's been awesome to see how far Flite Test has come from a couple guys making planes in a garage to a full team of people selling R/C plane kits from a full frickin' manufacturing warehouse!

It's so good to see Background Bob back in action!

Congratulations ! They both look and fly amazing.

THAT WAS AWESOME!! LETS GETS THEM TO 2 MILLION SUBS!!!!!!

THUMBS 👍🏻 for nearly 2M subscribers!! Way to go FT Team! Love watching Josh and the crew gain success over the years!!!

one word... AMAZEING

2:20 STARS AND BARS. Loud and proud brotha!!!!!

Use it as a tug plane to use it to tug a glider then release it, but make the glider really big so its scale with the plane

so cool.

More up than down on the ailerons might cure that adverse yaw that you have. You could also enlarge the fin and couple the rudder to roll. Wonderful aeroplane.

Differential thrust can also help a lot. But BE CAREFUL - small changes in mixing can have a big impact!

I love when you’re in FPV chasing someone flying line of sight and they say “that looked close.” 😉 Yeah, you have no idea

Always great builds and videos!

Great content guys. Awesome team challenge.

Good work boys!

Wow! That decal job was great! Well done guys

Waw this video really changes my attitude about EPO and other foam types for model aircraft construction.I just got. a horizon hobbies V900 and have been unsure of its strength and construction.I come from the balsa and ply construction type aircraft.I thought foam is a cheap alternative for R/C aircraft but now it's the primary technology for model aircraft.I just took me time to embrace the new building technology.Im an old school model builder.

Always impressive you guys

That thing is totally awesome!

Love the wings sim partnership nearly have tha whole golf corse memorised

Dave! spot on. Excellent work. Adaptability to technology and skill are great.

Awesome video! Love watching you guys!

FT is so much fun. Your team bring a lot of great projects and good vibes to the sport. You have my support ❤. Lovely covering job just beautiful! Love ya'll especially Dave's easy going creativity and Josh's enthusiasm and pure joy!

Awesome paint job

Love this giant build, seriously impressive. Have you guys thought about building a Hughes H-1 racer in the same scale?

awesome stuff, loved it.

It would be cool if they made 20 foot wingspan Blue Angels replicas and flew them in formation. With remote activated smoke bombs

Simply Awesome!!!

Flite Test projects never fail toget me in the mood to buildtless . Its such pure joy on a limitless scale . Thanks again and always .

Incredible guys!!! Cant wait to see what u guys do to this in the future!! We need more mini series planes now that winter is practically here (in the UK anyway lol) for indoor fliers

I like the iron cam. Good touch.

good stuff fellas

ESPECTACULAR!!

You guys are building some awesome planes, love it.

Seeing you guys always make giant planes has inspired me to make my own CL-215 out of foam board! I'm going for a 6 ft wingspan!! Love the videos

loving the more chill vibe guys, videos are a joy to watch, amazing project 👍

That was amazing as allweys

Most excellent!

Love to see counter rotating props on a build

You need to fly that with the fpv cockpit, it would be awesome

Awesome thanks guys for making an Awesome hobby even more Awesome !

I went into a hobby shop last year with my girlfriend. They had a RC transmitter attached to a PC simulator. I practiced a few times till I was able to take off, circle and land without crashing. My girlfriend was cool enough to get me a high-wing trainer for my birthday. I have had so much fun flying it.

Wow, that was alot if work, but Megacy and Legacy look gorgeous and that was some pretty flying. So much fun watching you have so much fun!!!! Congrats on making history!!

JB is an awesome guy and a great inspiration to the hobby. He is the heart and soul to flite test. I am a big fan of flite test. Love you guys.

that livery is sooo epic

Awesome video!!!

Great camera work. Great watching the build and flight journey, I am sure you will find away to roll this bird. Have a great week. 👍🏻

You are just awesome

Wow that's awesome man 😃👍

Awesome 👍 plane

That was Awesome!!! :D

This is really cool. I think you should try making a plane that uses the ground effect next

Very good 👍

Awesome!

Awesome video. Good piloting of the planes & drones.

Hi Guys, following you is just so much fun and inspiring. I've seen you've used a CNC hot wire cutter to cut the wing... I've been thinking a long time about hotwire-cutting a mold with that technique of a glider wing... I mean a real 18m competition glider wing. Accuracy of the wing curvature, especially in the region of the leading edge is a must, and virtually no bowing of the wire while slicing through the foam is required in order to obtain a ruled surface. Would the CNC hot wire be a viable method according to your experience, provided that one creates the 9m semi-wing mold in, say, max 1.5m long sections? Thanks!

What an awesome 👌 plane. Nice vide

The best part is it landed in one piece and can be modified. Congrats guys.

I love it guys! I want more giant planes)

Love that huge scale

Nice job guys! I really enjoyed that video. It seems like the hobby is kind of getting smaller. I don't have the time and money anymore but it's great to se you guys having a good time and a good place to fly.

Muito bom! 🇧🇷

That was pretty kool

i make a lot of rc planes i like to build planes because you will continue to make rc planes because i feel i have friends..like you..thanks for pushing me to continue making rc planes in my channel..i am thai I'm not good at writing in your language.. but I hope you understand that I need to thank you.

Wow! Dave does a great job with these builds!!!

You guys are awesomely hilarious with reaction comments

Nice job

You guys have done some amazing gliders in the the past but the Megacy looks like it'd be an awesome towplane. You could build a huge foamboard soarer to tow up with it?

It would be cool to show pilots how wake turbulence effects smaller aircraft behind larger aircraft with these 2 planes.

Although it is difficult to tell on camera, it looked like the smaller props might have been the better choice. Seems challenged to reach the RPM it needed. Nevertheless, it looks spectacular! Please don't kill it, keep it around to fly for years to come.

Monocote - I am impressed it still is produced, we used it 55 years ago.

Very nice

interesting to see different materials used from foamboard, hope to see more.

I fly (inside) a biplane smaller than that RC. Love your videos.

Put the Draco wing tip skids on it. Great flight, thanks for posting.

Amazing

has it been 12 years? wow. I know Ive said on here before.....But I still want to see David Windestajl gas afterburner kit he used on his vixen get used in something. It sounded AWESOME and looked the part too. Just maybe not on a vixen with the tail in the jet stream! All you newbies....search EDF afterburner (Mar 18, 2013 in the flight test video archive)-- it looks and sounds amazing!

Forgot the stars for the wings. Great videos. Been watching for years

I love hearing the og intro song in the videos

Mantap mas.. Widih keren

It needs some wheel pants. It would really look good with them.

That’s a BEAUTIFUL scheme! I may do something similar with a Viper!
