Already showed the setup vid which covers that! kzread.info/dash/bejne/qJumwaemhqfMj5s.html Setup is around the half-way mark. Should be in a chapter on the vid timeline.

Glad I found this video. I will use rudder toe on my f18 from now on. A little tip for you though. All you have to do in your transmitter is create a logical switch with gear and flaps. Make it so the logical switch is on with gear down and takeoff flaps and off for everything else. Link that to your rudder toe mix and you won’t have to remember to hit the rudder toe switch every time.

Solid work on throttle management, well done! Keeping the speed and attitude nailed is key to succesful landings, more so with this Hornet! Excellent job! Gotta try those full span flaps myself next! :p

@@TwoBrosRC That's to be expected with the Hornet though, full scale included. Actually, even the high alpha is performed with pitch-up being held on the full scale as opposed to other jets like the Raptor or Su-35 ;)

And "chest cam" is super useful. Thanks!

Living dangerously! Maybe you could ask them to mow a meter either side of the runway to give you more landing tolerance and less likely to wreck the jet! Love the tutorials though.

Still a nice landing even with the bugs! Bugs are something people don't really pay attention to while flying. But they could ruin the flight if they sting at the right time! A horsefly or a small wasp stung me while I was on the final of my E-flite F4 years ago. Greased the landing, and got the jet back in one piece without a scratch. But man, was that stung swelling fast, turned into a 2-inch lump in a minute.

Bruh, that's awful. Mosquitos and gnats are what we usually deal with here.

On landing, elevator controls speed and throttle controls sink rate / glide slope/ altitude. I trim my elevator for a minimum controllable airspeed plus a little. That way I only need a little back pressure on elevator with small adjustments as needed. With the airspeed stable, the throttle setting becomes predictable. Don't abruptly chop the throttle. Practice, practice, practice.

It's awful, innit? Florida had bugs too so I'm not shocked that I'm still dealing with them up here. Spray doesn't seem to help though. It's just that time of year. Everyone asks me "Why do you like winter flying so much?" and my answer is because I prefer being cold over being hot (must be the Swedish in me) and I can't stand dealing with insects swarming me.

How critical were tailerons to making full span work? I have an 8 channel receiver and could do either tailerons or full span flaps. Which one added most to your flying enjoyment of this plane? Also, the stall when turning onto base is no joke, it doesn't take much for the plane to look like it's all but stopping...and not much more for it to actually stall.

@TwoBrosRC

There's no reason why you can't have full span flaps and differential stabilators (tailerons) on an 8ch radio: 1 THR 2 RFLP 3 LFLP 4 RUD 5 GEAR 6 FLAP 7 RSTB 8 LSTB Set it up for both. It's way more fun to fly like this, and flies much more scale than it would if it was limited to pitch-only on the stabilators. The 10ch setup I use is only to have toed-in rudders for takeoff and for an independent nosewheel that I can turn off with the gear up and to add manual curved mix expo to it on the ground to avoid tipping it over at high speeds.

Throttle up, push the nose down, get the wings flying again, then gently pull up and recover. Sometimes you can use rudder to kick the wings back over into a wings-level position. Really just depends on the stall and what attitude the plane is in.
