I agree...I've had this plane for over a year and it's my "go too" plane if I haven't flown for a while. The yellow is so easy to see in the air. It's a great flyer and on 4S with increased throws...it'll blow you away on what it can do.
Thank you for your videos and thank you for thanking the creator for everything. Its refreshing to see. Keep up the good work!!!! Congrats on the new baby!!!
Im new to the hobby, first planes are the Eachine mini warbirds. They gave me a fever for something bigger and I am one of those that only wants to fly warbirds. I don't care about any of the other planes. I bought this T-28 Trojan for my first beginner warbird last weekend and absolutely love it!!!!! I only fly in safe mode right now but love it!!!! My maiden flight was terrible..... All it wanted to do the whole time was climb I had no down elevator control at all. I tried to trim it as much as it would go and it did nothing I finally had to just cut the throttle off and do a bunch of circles until it finally hit the ground lol. After that I ended up having to do a mechanical trim and then I was able to get it to where I actually had down elevator. Since then the flights have been great! I would have to correct you on the grass, it does not like grass at all. I was able to get it to take off and land on a soccer field that is completely dried out and probably a inch tall and it didn't even like that very much but it did it. I would say anything over inch long grass forget about it with those tiny wheels.
Welcome to the hobby... The T 28 is an excellent beginner plane. The bigger you go the better they fly. Spend some time on a simulator and you'll be a pro in no time..
@@brianwills4398 Thank you! I have been into R/C since I was a kid with kit cars and trucks.... My first was a Team Associated RC10T stadium truck when I was 12 lol So not a total newbie for R/C but 100% new to airplanes. Like I said in the previous post, my first planes I got a month or so ago are those Eachine mini warbirds and I love them but I do have to agree that the bigger plane is easier to fly.... In safe mode 😂🤣 I will get there. The next day I go out to fly I plan to take safe mode off and practice crashing 😎
If you take the battery shove it all the way forward to the firewall it won't climb no more that's what I did and it flies way better I love the plane even though I'm a very experienced pilot
I got this plane as a gift. It looked kinda cheap the elevator is held on with tape and the battery just sticks into foam no straps. I figured I would try it out and maybe trade it off at a swap. NOT! this plane is awesome it's small but easy to see. I can toss it in my car and be flying very fast. It has no issues on the grass field I use. Its fast and nimble and slows down easy without flaps. Thanks RcSaylors for all the demo's!!
Glad you saw the light!! Haha 😅 It is a great plane, that sort of does give off a “bad first impression” as you said. That tape is a turn off, but lemme tell ya, it holds up just as well as the screw system! Only downside to that: it may peel the paint if you try to remove the rear horizontal stabilizer for whatever reason. Happy Flying Z! 👍😁😎⚓️
I Love, Love, Love this one! I got it on black friday in 2021 for $160. Flew it all summer on 3S 2200 and 4S 2200 with a bit of foam removed. No issues, always up for a flight on a calm afternoon and ready to snap at will. Just wish it had more aileron authority. That said, it's so docile, I can even recommend it to younger pilots looking for the best low wing trainer!
The P-28 is a great flying design by some genius that’s long gone. I’ve had micro P-28s to 1/4 scale and they are a great design and very flyer friendly. Perfect description of a Trojan. Thanks for the vid.
I had the original Parkzone version of this plane from around 2008. It was, and still is, my favorite plane. I recently decided to get back into the hobby. My plane was the original red and white version. Fortunately, some of the parts from the new one will interchange with the old one. Word of caution, if you decide to bring a 14 yr old plane out of decommission, some of the plastic will get really brittle and easily break. Love this plane!
I seriously want to thank you so much for consistently helping us like this. If everyone did what you did, it would drive the algorithm crazy!! Lol!! I also couldn’t keep up with comments if they did, but still 😉😁😎⚓️
@@TheRcSaylors yeah I can still walk but have to use a cane and my right side is a little bit weak but being on disability I really can't afford the hobby anymore!
Amazing plane. A must-have. Super durable too. I have crashed mine from 100 feet up twice (caught a paratrooper and then a streamer) and it still looks and flies great with a little hot glue.
This t28 is such a great flyer. I always bring to the field to start my day off with. I did put larger wheels on mine as our grass is pretty bumpy and the larger Aeroscout wheels worked well on it. This plane also works out great for head tracking FPV as it comes with a 6ch receiver so you have the 2 available ch's for the head tracking FRV servos. What a blast!
This thing Zips on 4S! Great flying plane on both hard surfaces and grass fields. After a flyer gets their skills up, moving the throws to get more will result on plenty of fun!
do you have a list of aircraft to buy that progress and skill level? like if I've never flown before what should I fly, and once I'm not flying in safemode on that jet, what do I move on to, so on and so forth. specifically warbirds.
I don't recall any of your videos talking about battery times and ever going from a fully charged battery to when you actually have to land because of your battery is going to die battery times are very important
I own both and they were both beginner planes for me. IMO, the Aeroscout is so much easier to fly for a beginner. Also, against common sense, it's easier to fly (the Trojan) on 4S than 3S. IMO, I would tell anyone to forget about the looks and buy an Aeroscout. Learn how to fly it and then step up to the Trojan. Sounds like I don't like the Trojan but I do. It's an amazing plane. Have a great weekend!
My first airplane was a control line T-28 from Cox. It had an .049 engine. We had a small yard, so we shortened the control lines. Do you know what happens when you shorten the control lines on a model that has no throttle control and basically runs wide open until the fuel runs out ? It ain't pretty.
COOL plane! I finally flew for the first time Wednesday and then again Thursday afternoons. I bought the Habu sts a year ago, but have been apprehensive trying to fly it, so I bought the much slower flying Hobby zone Sport Cub s2. I'll keep practicing with it before I try the Habu. I also bought the UMX Turbo Timber thinking I could use the transmitter from the Habu, but I was wrong. No flaps control. Saving for a DSX6. By the way I LOVE the cloudy skies you have today! My favorite weather- I'm a fan of the sun. (I live in the inland Northwest)
Sounds like you’ve got a really fantastic line up Kurt! Some really awesome planes, and I know it’s an expensive “investment” into the hobby, but I’d like to Strongly recommend at least the NX6, or NX8 as these will save you money down the road, and just add so much convenience and enjoyment to your flying experience! It sounds like you are definitely enjoying the hobby with some awesome planes, so if at all possible, sell that old mower that won’t start and is collecting dust, along with a few other things you aren’t using and buy yourself a “lifetime radio” as I like to call it. Either way, keep on flying my friend! 👍😁😎⚓️
I got one for Christmas and it's great. I have built 30 airplanes and am a OK 3D pilot, so did not expect it to be a big deal, but it is really fun to fly. Does good general aerobatics. Great park flyer.
Thanks for the great video. So here is a curve ball for you, I’d like to get a slow flying plane, but something very stable. I hear the biplanes are some of the slowest, but can also be extremely twitchy. Also I have the carbon cub to start out on. Still New in box, but for me, because not military colors, not a big fan. This one I think I will look into. Thanks again.
@@TheRcSaylors I’m open to pretty much anything, but I’ve been told once you apply the word “scale” things start to become expensive. But that yellow one ( forgot the name) looks to be a great second plane. I’ve seen the videos on the Black Hawk RC copter, but even with the safety features I was told this is definitely Not a learner vehicle. For any helicopter, I was to start with pod and boom, because much less expensive to fix, that’s when I was told anything “scale” also means $$ I’m now thinking the cheapo build yourself foam kits might be the best idea. Crash em, glue them back together and keep going until you have the skills. But I do love the beach craft. Too bad it would look out to lunch in military colors. Have you ever seen a skymaster RC plane? I wonder how it would fly. Right out of the movie Bat 21. Also a beaver would be fantastic esp with the pontoon kit. Thanks for the reply. Cheers
I recently got an aeroscout. I had a friend hall fly the first time. Went great. I did mainly safe mode. I did try intermidiate a little but nearly got disoriented. How long should i fly on safe mode? My friend said i need to get out of it as soon as possible to learn how to acthaly control the plane. Any advice?
Just so amazing, a toy like this a few decades ago was only for the very wealthy, even though the world's going down the 🚽 we can play with RC 💯🤠🇬🇧❤🇺🇲⚡ ,can't wait for the RC baby 👶❤🇬🇧🤠👍
Hi love your channel. Thanks for all the advice. Question I am totally new beginner. I want to buy a radio that allows me to add other planes later on so I don't want a RTR 4 channel I am looking for a better radio for the long run. I check your link above but it just shows me all radios. Which one you recommend for my idea of having one for the long-run. I want to buy one that allows me to keep adding to the collection. I guess I will buy 2 or 3 planes every year. thanks
hi! i baught the 1.1 aeroscout about 2 months ago and i want to get a smaller airplane to bring places like camping, friends house etc... i was thinking about either the eachene p40 or the arrows 50mm BAE hawk. What do you think Nate, Abby?
Gotta say after watching a lot of RC-related youtube videos that Abby is a great videographer. Not everyone is as good at keeping the planes in the frame. For a new pilot would you go right to an NX8 transmitter vs the DX anything, when going for a BNF plane? Would you say a Turbo Timber Evolution can be dumbed down enough to be a viable trainer? Or is the tricycle landing gear as on this plane or an Apprentice STS 'needed' for a first-time pilot? I think I'd want flaps right away
Thank you very much! I’ll let Abby know you said that and she will be very happy to hear that. She tries hard and I agree, she does a wonderful job 😁 And YES, go right for the NX8 if possible. If your budget only allows for the 6, that’s fine too. The DX series will likely be discontinued in a year or so if I had to guess, and the N series is what I call a “lifetime” radio. You’ll be set for at least a decade 👍😎
Finally, regarding your plane, YES the Evo can make a Great trainer, with a TON of room for growth! Just keep it simple and calm at first, and you’ll do well 👍 Favor: when you order yours, please consider doing so using one of our links. Any link that takes you to Horizon will work. And I’m happy to help answer any questions you might have! I’ve seen people learn to fly on the TT Evo first hand btw. 👍⚓️
@@TheRcSaylors thanks for that. NX8 seems like a no brainer. Six seems limited. What are your thoughts on the TTE as a first plane? Or is it too much, even on 3S?
Nice plane Nate! Maybe I'll make this my 2nd plane, 1st is a Carbon Cub S2. You mention a universal transmitter. Your link goes to the Horizon Hobby page, with 18 transmitters listed. Model or product number please? 😀
Ah yeah, sorry about that. We do that because sometimes a person may want to buy the “bundle” where it comes with a RX. Anyways, the NX6 is great, but if you can afford a little more the NX8 is by far the best bang for your buck “lifetime” radio. Happy to answer any questions you might have about it! But take my word, 99% of people would likely offer the same advice 😉👍😁😎⚓️
I agree 100% with you guys, this t28 is amazing in the air. This airplane has made me a better pilot in the past 2 years. I have since modified to add a larger motor which makes soooo fast. It is even more fun that way. Thank you for posting this video. Quick question: what camera are you using to shoot the videos? they are so clear. Amazing
Thanks so much my friend! It’s always very nice to know that I’m at least close with such bold statements as “best” 😉😅 But yeah this plane just has a lot going for it! Really appreciate you taking the time to watch! 👍😎⚓️
@@TheRcSaylors Just wanted to check to see if the post below was made by you guys. It is asking to use Telegram to text and send my information about a giveaway.
Hey Nate. Greetings from Canada. Thanks for the video and for finally calling out how unappealing the Aeroscout looks. That's a visual abomination. The hobby needs more beginner friendly nice looking planes. Affordability might be the next concern
Honestly, the Aeroscout being at $230 100% RTF is pretty affordable! I know it’s ugly to a lot of people, but that’s a great price for an amazing performing plane. I agree though, as we do need more affordable options. Alas, all prices of everything outside the hobby continue to go up. I don’t see prices coming down any time soon. Even the “banggood” websites are increasing their prices.. 😢⚓️
@@TheRcSaylors indeed. I purchased a similar looking plane on a suspicious website. The plane only kinda half flies. At 100$ I had to try. And what's this "telegram message" I got claiming I won a prize for commenting? Sounds as fuzzy as my last purchase.
As I "attempt" to get back into RC Flying (after being gone for 10+ years), this would seem to be a good "get Kent back into the wild blue yonder" plane. I "should" have a radio that will do BNF, a 6 channel Spectrum (about 6 years old). Alas, I'm not sure my best radio system, an 8 channel Futaba (about 3 years old) will do BNF. Thanks as always for excellent content.
That is correct Bruce. Thanks! We’ve probably blocked 30 of those accounts over the last few months or so. I always nail them as soon as I see them 👍⚓️
This is my favorite plane! Those snap rolls don't have to be so docile. If you want a wild snap, simultaneously go full throttle, full down elevator, full left aileron, and full right rudder (just jam the sticks into the top middle of your transmitter). After a few rolls, let off the throttle and return controls to neutral and it'll recover in no time. Also, it will knife edge fairly well if you adjust the throws on the rudder.
Watching this on the TV I struggled to know who made this plane so I could go looking to buy it. Maybe right at the start it would be a good idea to say exactly who makes it, what model, wingspan etc. Apologies if you did say and I have just missed it!
@@boodaghost6896 Thanks. I had no trouble finding that out when I looked at UA-cam on my phone but I wanted the author's to know that you can't see any of that when watching on TV so it's a good idea to state it clearly on the video 👍
Sorry guys!! We try most of the time to mention the manufacturer. I think, maybe because it’s been flown on our channel so much I probably just forgot to mention it. Thanks for helping Bood, and both of you for watching! 👍😁😎⚓️
@@TheRcSaylors No worries, love your reviews but hope feedback helps. It's easy to miss the obvious and actually there's a whole host of issues when watching on TV (for example I can't see how to like and subscribe on my 2013 Sony Bravia/FireStick)
Is the T28 much harder to fly than the aero scout? I'm looking at making my first plane purchase and definitely like the looks of this better. I'm only familiar with FPV drones. Any input would be much appreciated 🙏
Sad that it’s on back order. I knew it was popular, but not that popular wow! Hopefully they get back in stock before Christmas. I’m sure it will be 👍😁😎⚓️
Hello, I love this channel. I am new to flying and this is the plane I plan to order. I want to get into these and fly with my daughter too. Which controller do I need to get? I went to the link but it shows many of them and just want to make sure I get a good universal radio up front so I can grow with it and use it with other planes when I add more. I usually follow the old rule of buy once cry once.😂 Thanks for any advice you can throw my way.
Ok I see it would be best to get the NX8 radio but there are two models of this plane at the link. I assume I need to order the one for $229 with SAFE. Sorry I am totally new and want make sure I get what I need. Thanks! Greg
Alas, right now the plane is on backorder. I do think it would be nice if they offered it in multiple paint schemes, such as an Air Force trainer along with the Navy trainer.
I wish Eflite did this with a majority of their planes. I feel like their sales would increase quite a bit, as some people would probably buy two or more if offered! Or at least could be more likely to buy it just due to liking it more 👍😁😎⚓️
@@TheRcSaylors I bought the UMX Voodoo Mustang from our local hobby dealer a bit over a week ago. That's another that I wish they would offer in other paint schemes, such as one of the Tuskegee Airmen Redtails.
Totally agreed! Hey, I may have mentioned this before, but if at all possible, would you mind splitting the support between your hobby shop and us? Maybe buy one thing from them, then the next you could use our link? Either way, we appreciate your support 😁 One nice thing about buying through our link on Horizon is that you have a points system that really adds up over time! Abby and I love signing in before we buy our RC stuff because we get rewards that we can use on our next purchase, or just let them add up over time and every now and then we get ourselves a free Axial mini crawler 😉 I realize this sounds super sales pitchy, but it seriously helps us a lot when people buy through our links. Thanks so much for watching and for your support!! Have fun with that new Voodoo!! 😎⚓️
One of the reasons I bought from our local shop was that they posted they had some in stock, while the Horizon site showed the UMX Voodoo as already on backorder. I maidened it the next day (shortest time ever for me between purchase and first flight). I suspect the Voodoo is going to be a popular plane for them, with its performance and features for the price. While we might have missed out on the commission from Horizon on this one, I figure the Patreon support is a bit more regular and reliable from me. Happy to keep supporting a good channel!
Linked in our description box and pinned comment my friend. If you need me to send the link, tell me. But two clicks should pull it right up 👍 Happy Flying! 😁😎⚓️
I've done it. Without SAFE on, it definitely drops a few feet of elevation before it starts to build up enough lift to fly. I never enabled SAFE on mine, so not sure how that would handle.
@@kyoz1984 lol it's not that long of a time tho if you want to keep flying the plane longer than that , i know it's different but i run my rc buggies for an hr or 2
@@Jose.Q_ i mean so do i... but its completely different. I'm sure flying a plane manually for more than 30 minutes is kinda exhausting? I've only seen 2+ hour flight times on drones which are completely automated.
@@kyoz1984 yeah i figure it would be tiring since a person would be looking up the whole time with there head tilting upwards ......drones would be cool to have because i seen a few that you can use your phone as a screen attached to the remote so that you don't have to look up while flying it
More like 5 to 8 minutes. Which when flying an rc plane feels like 30 minutes lol. A lot of things going on at the same time so after 5 minutes most people are ready to get their head straight again lol
It absolutely could be, yes. I would highly recommend you buy a good transmitter from Spektrum that you can easily bind up to this plane to take full advantage of SAFE, etc… but if you do that you’ll definitely do well. It’s all linked in our pinned comment and description box. Thanks for watching! 👍😁😎
Always wanted one as a kid but 💵 never could now I'm grown just deciding which way to go. Think I'm going with a plane instead of a drone, just because always wanted a rc plane!
That’s not a bad idea! We have 😁 The downside is that there are two of us, which doubles the cost and makes editing that much more difficult since we both talk, and stand by each other. My mic would pic Abby up and vice versa. Editing these levels would mean probably cutting our videos back to two a week or so. I know the wind noise is not ideal at times, and when I walk away from the camera. I toss this idea around at least once every week or two. Pros and cons I suppose. 👍⚓️
I agree...I've had this plane for over a year and it's my "go too" plane if I haven't flown for a while. The yellow is so easy to see in the air. It's a great flyer and on 4S with increased throws...it'll blow you away on what it can do.

Either way, keep on flying my friend! 👍😁😎⚓️
I got one for Christmas and it's great. I have built 30 airplanes and am a OK 3D pilot, so did not expect it to be a big deal, but it is really fun to fly. Does good general aerobatics. Great park flyer.
It's so BEATIFUL😭😭😭!!!
Can you guys please make an other best beginner airplane of 2022
Nice video guys love the yellow plane looks awesome 👌👏👍
Magical clouds!
Got one, its awesome.👍
Beautiful 😻 bird! You had me at Oxymoron! #stayepic
Hahaha 😂😂 Thanks! 😁⚓️
This is the best plane I own. And with rubber tires it's even better it flys and lands like a dream on 4s. And I bought it from Nate's link lol
Thanks for the great video. So here is a curve ball for you, I’d like to get a slow flying plane, but something very stable.
I hear the biplanes are some of the slowest, but can also be extremely twitchy.
Also I have the carbon cub to start out on. Still New in box, but for me, because not military colors, not a big fan.
This one I think I will look into. Thanks again.
This is not a bad budget-ish option. Are you only wanting military style or open to scale birds? ⚓️
@@TheRcSaylors
I’m open to pretty much anything, but I’ve been told once you apply the word “scale” things start to become expensive. But that yellow one ( forgot the name) looks to be a great second plane.
I’ve seen the videos on the Black Hawk RC copter, but even with the safety features I was told this is definitely Not a learner vehicle. For any helicopter, I was to start with pod and boom, because much less expensive to fix, that’s when I was told anything “scale” also means $$
I’m now thinking the cheapo build yourself foam kits might be the best idea. Crash em, glue them back together and keep going until you have the skills. But I do love the beach craft. Too bad it would look out to lunch in military colors.
Have you ever seen a skymaster RC plane? I wonder how it would fly. Right out of the movie Bat 21.
Also a beaver would be fantastic esp with the pontoon kit. Thanks for the reply. Cheers
I hve the original version of this plane. Parkzone brand red and white.. Hope to fly it tomorrow for the first tme in about ten years.
Are they easy to fly
@@Emo_ian69 Extremely.
Great video and nice stable plane. !! Can if buy parts if I need them or course crash ?
Awesome, thanks for sharing 👌🏾 😎 👍🏾 im a nee flier and ❤ warbirds. I'll add this to the list.
I recently got an aeroscout. I had a friend hall fly the first time. Went great. I did mainly safe mode. I did try intermidiate a little but nearly got disoriented. How long should i fly on safe mode? My friend said i need to get out of it as soon as possible to learn how to acthaly control the plane. Any advice?
Awesome video!
Thanks Adam! 👍😁😎⚓️
@@TheRcSaylors Hey Bro, looks like the scammers are back. I know it's hard to keep them away but I just wanted to let you know. Have a wonderful day!
Just so amazing, a toy like this a few decades ago was only for the very wealthy, even though the world's going down the 🚽 we can play with RC 💯🤠🇬🇧❤🇺🇲⚡ ,can't wait for the RC baby 👶❤🇬🇧🤠👍
Great review
pretty cool, thanks for showing

Hi love your channel. Thanks for all the advice. Question I am totally new beginner. I want to buy a radio that allows me to add other planes later on so I don't want a RTR 4 channel I am looking for a better radio for the long run. I check your link above but it just shows me all radios. Which one you recommend for my idea of having one for the long-run. I want to buy one that allows me to keep adding to the collection. I guess I will buy 2 or 3 planes every year. thanks
Where can I possibly buy this plane?🤔
Very nice video relaxing and I'm like se the wing indicates
hi! i baught the 1.1 aeroscout about 2 months ago and i want to get a smaller airplane to bring places like camping, friends house etc... i was thinking about either the eachene p40 or the arrows 50mm BAE hawk. What do you think Nate, Abby?
Real world trainer is an AT-6 Texan which is how WWII pilots trained which is the same as I did as well
Gotta say after watching a lot of RC-related youtube videos that Abby is a great videographer. Not everyone is as good at keeping the planes in the frame.
For a new pilot would you go right to an NX8 transmitter vs the DX anything, when going for a BNF plane?
Would you say a Turbo Timber Evolution can be dumbed down enough to be a viable trainer? Or is the tricycle landing gear as on this plane or an Apprentice STS 'needed' for a first-time pilot? I think I'd want flaps right away
Thank you very much! I’ll let Abby know you said that and she will be very happy to hear that. She tries hard and I agree, she does a wonderful job 😁 And YES, go right for the NX8 if possible. If your budget only allows for the 6, that’s fine too. The DX series will likely be discontinued in a year or so if I had to guess, and the N series is what I call a “lifetime” radio. You’ll be set for at least a decade 👍😎
Finally, regarding your plane, YES the Evo can make a Great trainer, with a TON of room for growth! Just keep it simple and calm at first, and you’ll do well 👍 Favor: when you order yours, please consider doing so using one of our links. Any link that takes you to Horizon will work. And I’m happy to help answer any questions you might have!
I’ve seen people learn to fly on the TT Evo first hand btw. 👍⚓️
@@TheRcSaylors thanks for that. NX8 seems like a no brainer. Six seems limited. What are your thoughts on the TTE as a first plane? Or is it too much, even on 3S?
Nice plane Nate! Maybe I'll make this my 2nd plane, 1st is a Carbon Cub S2.
You mention a universal transmitter. Your link goes to the Horizon Hobby page, with 18 transmitters listed. Model or product number please? 😀
Ah yeah, sorry about that. We do that because sometimes a person may want to buy the “bundle” where it comes with a RX. Anyways, the NX6 is great, but if you can afford a little more the NX8 is by far the best bang for your buck “lifetime” radio. Happy to answer any questions you might have about it! But take my word, 99% of people would likely offer the same advice 😉👍😁😎⚓️
@@TheRcSaylors Thank you very much, I appreciate all you both do for the channel, and our Lord!
Bruce I started with the Carbon Cub also! I'd go NX8 if you can swing the extra cash it may save you from upgrading sooner than you may think.
@@zman1766 Thanks for the tip, sounds like a good idea to me!
I agree 100% with you guys, this t28 is amazing in the air. This airplane has made me a better pilot in the past 2 years. I have since modified to add a larger motor which makes soooo fast. It is even more fun that way. Thank you for posting this video. Quick question: what camera are you using to shoot the videos? they are so clear. Amazing
Thanks so much my friend! It’s always very nice to know that I’m at least close with such bold statements as “best” 😉😅 But yeah this plane just has a lot going for it! Really appreciate you taking the time to watch! 👍😎⚓️
@@TheRcSaylors Just wanted to check to see if the post below was made by you guys. It is asking to use Telegram to text and send my information about a giveaway.
Hey Nate. Greetings from Canada. Thanks for the video and for finally calling out how unappealing the Aeroscout looks. That's a visual abomination. The hobby needs more beginner friendly nice looking planes. Affordability might be the next concern
Honestly, the Aeroscout being at $230 100% RTF is pretty affordable! I know it’s ugly to a lot of people, but that’s a great price for an amazing performing plane. I agree though, as we do need more affordable options. Alas, all prices of everything outside the hobby continue to go up. I don’t see prices coming down any time soon. Even the “banggood” websites are increasing their prices.. 😢⚓️
@@TheRcSaylors indeed. I purchased a similar looking plane on a suspicious website. The plane only kinda half flies. At 100$ I had to try. And what's this "telegram message" I got claiming I won a prize for commenting? Sounds as fuzzy as my last purchase.
Love your vids guys! If I got a better radio for this plane could I still access safe mode and regular flight modes still?
Cheers and God Bless! 🙏
As I "attempt" to get back into RC Flying (after being gone for 10+ years), this would seem to be a good "get Kent back into the wild blue yonder" plane. I "should" have a radio that will do BNF, a 6 channel Spectrum (about 6 years old). Alas, I'm not sure my best radio system, an 8 channel Futaba (about 3 years old) will do BNF. Thanks as always for excellent content.
The Spektrum will work for you, I don't think that the Futaba will.
@@boodaghost6896 that’s my understanding. Thanks for the confirmation
Hey I was wondering what remote would be good for it?
Do you need a spectum tranmitter or will a taranis work ? new to planes. thanks !
Heads up to anyone who doesn't know, the prize comments are spam, ignore them.
That is correct Bruce. Thanks! We’ve probably blocked 30 of those accounts over the last few months or so. I always nail them as soon as I see them 👍⚓️
@@TheRcSaylors they hit me 3 times yesterday. I report them as spam and have reported them! Thank you fit all you do for us newbies and the hobby!
This is my favorite plane! Those snap rolls don't have to be so docile. If you want a wild snap, simultaneously go full throttle, full down elevator, full left aileron, and full right rudder (just jam the sticks into the top middle of your transmitter). After a few rolls, let off the throttle and return controls to neutral and it'll recover in no time.
Also, it will knife edge fairly well if you adjust the throws on the rudder.
I just needed some throttle in there I guess 😉 Thanks for the tip! Happy Flying my friend 👍😎⚓️
How does this compare to the Carbon Cub S2 for a first plane?
Watching this on the TV I struggled to know who made this plane so I could go looking to buy it. Maybe right at the start it would be a good idea to say exactly who makes it, what model, wingspan etc. Apologies if you did say and I have just missed it!
Eflite
@@boodaghost6896 Thanks. I had no trouble finding that out when I looked at UA-cam on my phone but I wanted the author's to know that you can't see any of that when watching on TV so it's a good idea to state it clearly on the video 👍
@@mikeonb4c Maybe they will see this. Yes, buy this plane. You'll love it.
Sorry guys!! We try most of the time to mention the manufacturer. I think, maybe because it’s been flown on our channel so much I probably just forgot to mention it. Thanks for helping Bood, and both of you for watching! 👍😁😎⚓️
@@TheRcSaylors No worries, love your reviews but hope feedback helps. It's easy to miss the obvious and actually there's a whole host of issues when watching on TV (for example I can't see how to like and subscribe on my 2013 Sony Bravia/FireStick)
Gonna be flying off of crushed gravel and flattened runway will the wheels take that
Is the T28 much harder to fly than the aero scout? I'm looking at making my first plane purchase and definitely like the looks of this better. I'm only familiar with FPV drones. Any input would be much appreciated 🙏
W plane W video
A big plus, for me, is the size. .9m -1.2m is my sweet spot.
Ps. It is on backorder.
Sad that it’s on back order. I knew it was popular, but not that popular wow! Hopefully they get back in stock before Christmas. I’m sure it will be 👍😁😎⚓️
on 4s how fast is it? looking to pick one up.
Just buy it already.
Hello, I love this channel. I am new to flying and this is the plane I plan to order. I want to get into these and fly with my daughter too. Which controller do I need to get? I went to the link but it shows many of them and just want to make sure I get a good universal radio up front so I can grow with it and use it with other planes when I add more. I usually follow the old rule of buy once cry once.😂
Thanks for any advice you can throw my way.
Ok I see it would be best to get the NX8 radio but there are two models of this plane at the link. I assume I need to order the one for $229 with SAFE. Sorry I am totally new and want make sure I get what I need. Thanks!
Greg
A great option to start out is getting a Spektrum DXS it ain’t much but it’s good and it has everything you need to start out
Alas, right now the plane is on backorder. I do think it would be nice if they offered it in multiple paint schemes, such as an Air Force trainer along with the Navy trainer.
I wish Eflite did this with a majority of their planes. I feel like their sales would increase quite a bit, as some people would probably buy two or more if offered! Or at least could be more likely to buy it just due to liking it more 👍😁😎⚓️
@@TheRcSaylors I bought the UMX Voodoo Mustang from our local hobby dealer a bit over a week ago. That's another that I wish they would offer in other paint schemes, such as one of the Tuskegee Airmen Redtails.
Totally agreed! Hey, I may have mentioned this before, but if at all possible, would you mind splitting the support between your hobby shop and us? Maybe buy one thing from them, then the next you could use our link? Either way, we appreciate your support 😁 One nice thing about buying through our link on Horizon is that you have a points system that really adds up over time! Abby and I love signing in before we buy our RC stuff because we get rewards that we can use on our next purchase, or just let them add up over time and every now and then we get ourselves a free Axial mini crawler 😉 I realize this sounds super sales pitchy, but it seriously helps us a lot when people buy through our links. Thanks so much for watching and for your support!! Have fun with that new Voodoo!! 😎⚓️
One of the reasons I bought from our local shop was that they posted they had some in stock, while the Horizon site showed the UMX Voodoo as already on backorder. I maidened it the next day (shortest time ever for me between purchase and first flight). I suspect the Voodoo is going to be a popular plane for them, with its performance and features for the price.
While we might have missed out on the commission from Horizon on this one, I figure the Patreon support is a bit more regular and reliable from me. Happy to keep supporting a good channel!
I‘m new to this Hobby. Did i need an 300bucks Remote? My dad got a programable 4channel Remote.
Nice video Saylors . I got a question . will the Spectrum transmitter work with the fms planes ?
FMS uses different protocol equipment in their planes that don't communicate with spektrum protocol.
Where do you get this I also want this can you tell me please and this is available in India or not
Linked in our description box and pinned comment my friend. If you need me to send the link, tell me. But two clicks should pull it right up 👍 Happy Flying! 😁😎⚓️
Hey Nate, does the t-28 1.2 Trojan fly the same, but just with flaps and retraceable landing gear ??? Thanks
Great question! No! Lol.. I’d say it flies heavier, if that makes sense. Shorter flight times too. Otherwise very similar. I hope this helps! 😁😎⚓️
For your opinion, is it possible to take off by throwing it with your hands?
Oh yeah, definitely 👍😁😎⚓️
I've done it. Without SAFE on, it definitely drops a few feet of elevation before it starts to build up enough lift to fly. I never enabled SAFE on mine, so not sure how that would handle.
I imagine SAFE would drastically help a hand launch for sure. It usually does on most hand launches anyways 👍😉😁⚓️
I would get into rc airplanes but the thing that's holding me back in getting them is the flight time , most of them are just 20 to 30 mins
20 to 30 minutes is a long time man lol
@@kyoz1984 lol it's not that long of a time tho if you want to keep flying the plane longer than that , i know it's different but i run my rc buggies for an hr or 2
@@Jose.Q_ i mean so do i... but its completely different. I'm sure flying a plane manually for more than 30 minutes is kinda exhausting? I've only seen 2+ hour flight times on drones which are completely automated.
@@kyoz1984 yeah i figure it would be tiring since a person would be looking up the whole time with there head tilting upwards ......drones would be cool to have because i seen a few that you can use your phone as a screen attached to the remote so that you don't have to look up while flying it
More like 5 to 8 minutes. Which when flying an rc plane feels like 30 minutes lol. A lot of things going on at the same time so after 5 minutes most people are ready to get their head straight again lol
Where in ky do yall live, I'm in Western ky, weather seems to change daily...
Can you get this plane in different colours cos I don't like the yellow colour
Not this exact plane, no. There are a TON of T-28 Trojans on the market though! 👍😎⚓️
@@TheRcSaylors OK thanks brother much appreciate
Is this a good plane to be first and train?
It absolutely could be, yes. I would highly recommend you buy a good transmitter from Spektrum that you can easily bind up to this plane to take full advantage of SAFE, etc… but if you do that you’ll definitely do well. It’s all linked in our pinned comment and description box. Thanks for watching! 👍😁😎
@@TheRcSaylors Thanks a lot for the feedback. I'm from Brazil and I'm going to see if I can import the plane.
Always wanted one as a kid but 💵 never could now I'm grown just deciding which way to go. Think I'm going with a plane instead of a drone, just because always wanted a rc plane!
That's sad...
apprentice sts horizon hobby trainer is for sale, I would get a transmitter and an apprentice
Kinda early squad where you guys at happy flying all 😎😎😎😎😎⚓️⚓️⚓️⚓️⚓️⚓️
I thought about buying this as a gift until I saw the cost of the extra necessary equipment like a transmitter etc.
quick question and greetings from New York. Can floats be added to this plane?
No.
Just a suggestion...have you guys thought about investing in a remote microphone? One you can put on or under shirt.
That’s not a bad idea! We have 😁 The downside is that there are two of us, which doubles the cost and makes editing that much more difficult since we both talk, and stand by each other. My mic would pic Abby up and vice versa. Editing these levels would mean probably cutting our videos back to two a week or so. I know the wind noise is not ideal at times, and when I walk away from the camera. I toss this idea around at least once every week or two. Pros and cons I suppose. 👍⚓️
@@TheRcSaylors I can see that being more difficult for editing. Maybe I'll just crank my tv up. 😂
Wait, it can't go over 200mph (your Oct 2nd review) or even 100 mph (your Oct 11th review)?
🤣 It does move along pretty good though on 4s.
I mean, it could if we put enough bricks in it and threw it over a cliff! Hey, thanks for the next title idea Kevin!! 💯💯💯😂⚓️
Could you fpv this one?? I want to jump into planes,fpv for the last 5 years and would be so fun in a plane
I wouldn’t see why not! Could be a great FPV platform 👍😁😎⚓️
I want to add, there is a TON of room inside the canopy for the extra FPV gear 😉👍😁⚓️
You can FPV any plane, even the little eachine 400mm warbird series.
Wow
Gotta believe those small wheels could be problematic on grass. That may be why they include a second prop.
I wish it had retractable landing gear to make it more scale without flaps
