    Awesome review! Did you use the APC 11x5.5E prop or some other version? Did you change the ESC or was the ESC overheating? I just got this plane and also the APC 11x5.5E thin electric prop and i don't want to burn the ESC. Thanks in advance!

    • @mtbwithjure7809

      Also is it better to run it with a gyro? Did you use a gyro in it?

    • @skyboundrc
      @skyboundrc 7 днів тому

      yes, my flights were done with the APC 11x5.5E prop. Nothing changed with the ESC included. I didn't check temperatures, but never had issues despite doing back to back aggressive flights. Not sure about how durable this setup is though, as I only flew this plane for a few weeks before I sold it.

    • @skyboundrc
      @skyboundrc 7 днів тому

      Gyro is totally up to the pilot. I personally don't use gyros in any prop planes, but a well setup gyro would likely make it more stable.

    Thanks for the info. One other question when putting in the aileron control horns it looks like the inboard and out board are the same length, I know a some other manufacturers have different lengths for each since the thickness of the wing changes. Did you have any issues with setting them up with the same length control horns?

    • @skyboundrc
      @skyboundrc 8 днів тому

      hi! Yeah, EF does usually use different horn lengths and I'm a big fan of that. This PilotRC didn't. It wasn't a big deal, they're close enough that is easy to adjust in the TX later, but definitely would love to see this in future Pilot planes

  • @cletusberkeley9441
    @cletusberkeley9441 11 днів тому

    Season's Greetings all. Awesome video and content. What no one is saying or showing (as far as i can find) are ways of tweaking (I'm working on this) Auto Level response. If you're used to AS3 type stabilizers, in Auto Level any right stick movement off center causes the stabilization to "back off" and it's "your airplane". I find the FrSky stabilization system does not want to relinquish control, regardless of gain settings and fights you for the airplane. I belive under "SRX Stable" that can be tweaked, but i am yet to find proper info on that. On scale models with AS3 I sometimes like to use auto level on takeoff and/or landings to ease the workload especially on the scale Jets and windy days. Mind you, I am coming over to FrSky from JR 12X / Spektrum receivers and Hobby Eagle A3 Super 3 stabilization. Some of my jets are still Spektrum / A3S and im using a multi protocol module on the X20S and thats just fine. Nonetheless, I love my FrSky X20S and the SR series receivers, im just not using Auto Level feature, but certainly have it on an "Oh Sh*t" button.

    I worked out a variation of what Perez did at 3:13 years ago. It was based off of something I saw Shawn Tucker do when he flew a Pits in the early 1990's. I've never seen a monoplane pull it off and the only way I could make it work was by using parallax to make it look like as if the plane was doing the impossible. I'm glad to see someone taking advantage of that concept. It's easy to do with RC because you flying from the perspective of the spectator. Thankyou for the video.

  • @aknickrc
    @aknickrc 12 днів тому

    I liked the intro I’ll have you know 😆 You forgot to mention why you only drill half way through. I presume for less of a chance to chip the backside and to eliminate the possibility of the drill press being off a tiny bit resulting in more of a uniform hole. It’s been said compression is what helps keep the prop on and a lot of folks make their holes more of an hour glass shape. Seems silly, but it’s fair to say that perfection isn’t always needed. I always balance after drilling too!

    • @skyboundrc
      @skyboundrc 13 днів тому

      I haven't used loctite in the stab screws. I use some rubber washers (I forget if they came with the plane kit or I added them on my own) that keep the whole thing tight. Every time I disassemble, the bolts are as tight as I left them, so no concerns there. If you want, you could always add the tiniest amount of blue loctite for extra peace of mind.

    • @skyboundrc
      @skyboundrc 18 днів тому

      I've only tried somebody else's 67" Laser for a few flights. They're not too different. The 260 is a great aerobatic/freestyle all around model, while the Laser might have a bit of an advantage on precision flying. But again, they're both very similar in terms of flying characteristics, so things like CG, throws, expo... will likely make a bigger difference for most pilots. I'd recommend going with whichever model you like the looks of the most :-)

      ​@@skyboundrc Thank you. I agree with you, setup is key. This may not be a fair question, in your experience is the Skywing brand of better quality/overall design. Or is it mainly aesthetics.

    • @skyboundrc
      @skyboundrc 16 днів тому

      I'd say the newer (last 2 years) models from PilotRC, Extreme Flight and Skywing are very similar in terms of quality of materials, construction, accessories and flying characteristics. They are all slightly different and have their own personalities, but can't really say one is better than other in general. (sorry, I know most people would love a definitive A is better than B). In reality, these 3 brands are top of the line and it's all about chosing the model that fits you best (in terms of aesthetics, price, and specific flying style).

I hope it will fly well, I have read a few comments elsewhere saying the 67” platform is not as stable/good and the 74” is better!! Well I can’t really quantify that. Just someone’s experience.
