CR5rc

I will be mostly covering my flights with various RC planes, EDF's, gliders, and maybe some heli flying.

Note,
At no time in any of my videos will I be flying with SAFE activated! I'd rather crash :p
I do have it enabled on all planes equipped with the AR636 receiver because on certain model programs you lose rudder throw if you bind with it off.
I put it on the Trainer/Bind button so it's never accidentally on.

I can start doing unboxing and assembly videos or help with Spektrum radio programming if requested.

There will be more 1:18 through 1:5 scale gas surface vehicle coverage when I get around to taking some videos.

Also be some mountain biking at various locations around Alberta and BC. Just bought a new Scott Genius eride.

I'm currently using the RunCam2 camera with 120 degree lens. Set to 1080p 60fps.

Subscribe if you like what you see and want to see more.
Thanks for watching.

    For your next trick . . . launching backward, flipping upright and then flying off . . . may be easier done on a slope. <grin> I'm reading through the thread on this and planning on buying one in the near future. Planning on it being a 'travel plane'. Nice flying!

    How much better is the Bamf over the malibu? Is it worth double the price?

  • @CR5rc
    @CR5rcАй бұрын

    Not even in the same category, the BAMF2 cost me a lot more than double and was worth every penny. Both excellent but trying to compare a $250 fiberglass Malibu plus $40 worth of servos and a $50 receiver to the $1500 full carbon BAMF2 with KST 08 servos and a $100 receiver with vario and altimeter is like apples and oranges. The Malibu flies really well, it's extremely light and agile, can be flown in smaller places, is a really great glider for light lift and just getting a feel for DLG before spending the big bucks. It lacks inertia though and doesn't penetrate like a 1.5m glider. The BAMF2 is much smoother and can be flown in heavier winds, has great launches and good penetration to get you back if you go downwind. It's construction is near perfect, Thomas built it as receiver ready for me (mine is the one in his video) and it's perfect. So I have around $350 into the Malibu and close to $2000 into the BAMF2, no comparison. All prices in Canadian dollars at the time of purchase. But I will say that recently I took the Malibu out for a spin and had a good time with it. I should fly it more often.

  • @geordienufc3132

    Nice flights but the vario gets annoying, maybe when you're flying it's not so noticeable. What Rx and Tx are you using?

  • @CR5rc
    @CR5rc21 күн бұрын

    It's a Spektrum DX8 gen 2 transmitter and AR6610T receiver with the case removed. I agree that as a spectator the vario would be annoying, plus I think I need to make the sink less sensitive so it's not always chirping. While you're flying it just turns into background noise that I don't really consciously notice but the rising sound does register in my head. The rising noise never annoys me :p Thanks for watching

    Nice flight Chris, looks fun and good for outdoor. A Bit Heavy for indoors. I built a depron Yak54 with a weight of 120g inkl a big 2S pack. I think it’s half of that bird with around the same size. But there are mucho more lighter ones that fly also much more easely indoors :)) For me as a beginner the material played a fundamental role so I built a RC Factory Turbo beaver. That’s super also for after work everywhere flying :D but with a nice and sturdy landing gear. I also used the tires of my old turbo timber umx instead of foam wheels :))

    There's a difference between being able to fly with the weight and flying well with the weight. I can feel a huge difference in the low speed handling with a 4S 450mAh compared to a 4S 300mAh. It carries it fine but you lose the low speed handling when you load it up with heavy packs that provide zero positive gains other than an extra minute of flight time.
