    why fly with a gyro in the giant scale? i get it with the small foamies etc, but why 50cc and up?

    • @hobbyxtremerc
      @hobbyxtremerc 14 днів тому

      That’s a good question, a gyro can do a lot of things today, and the beginner ones will even help you stay level and even help you land. When you get more advanced, gyros are not setup to help fly the plane, but rather help make it more enjoyable by smoothing out maneuvers. On larger aircraft the gyro will not prevent you from overbanking etc, but more over acts as a shock absorber, like in a car.

The logo was designed to help us advertise our product line videos, you can still see those @HobbyXtreme which is the original UA-cam channel for the store. Unfortunately we lost access to that channel after the store closed and we were forced to start a new channel, HobbyxtremeRC.

    The flying was very impressive. The plane was fabulous; no words for it. But the pilot was absolutely sinking in it. Can you tell me how I can start learning to fly the RC? As a beginner, I was doing things on my own. Suggest something from where I can start the learning. Thank you.

    • @hobbyxtremerc

      Thanks for your message! We would suggest trying to find a local RC club by you and become a member there. The best way to learn is with someone teaching you. If that’s not possible we recommend looking into a trainer RC aircraft from Horizon Hobby that has SAFE technology. Welcome to this awesome hobby!!

    • @hobbyxtremerc
      @hobbyxtremerc Місяць тому

      Thanks for the comment Adrian! It was a tailwind but only about 3kts, at my field it’s safer and easier to take off that way due to tall trees at the other end. Thats the main reason I take off that direction and land the opposite.

      @adriancuestaablanedo468 Місяць тому

      @@hobbyxtremerc I mean on the Tx you must turn down expo values, Gyro has sort of expo feeling added when activated. So tune down the expo value lower depending on gyro gain. (for me usually half of it with Cortex) I have seen gyro off values of 45% on some pilots and 30% with gyro on. But it depends on pilots taste. My gyro off rarely exceeds 30 % .....

      It does actually, but this plane was the actual prototype they used to test the plane before production so I don’t have those tips. I think the whistle you hear from flight is from those tip tanks, but I also LOVE the lights, so not a bad trade off I think.

I greatly appreciate your passion and your honesty, I've subscribed to your channel and intend to follow you both on this journey with hopes that there is no more unfortunate events!!! keep up the great work. hope all your flights are great!!!

    Service is above and beyond. However… shipping to and from Canada is extremely high. Double the cost of the actual repair. Gp has service in Canada.
