    Great Show!
    I so tempted to put Floats on My Planes.
    But all the water here is salt.
    Again, great show Young Man.

      Thanks Jono , I would buy the Floats for the Aeroscout and fly it off saltwater so even if it did crash I am only out under $250 USD/ not sure what it is in NZ

    Beautiful flying spot! Have to fly this one onto the water, stalling it onto the water without a solid flare will make it skip, so land a little faster than you would a wheel plane. Have to just kiss the water with the hull. Well done!

    Nice maiden Tug, I miss my V1 Albatross sorry I sold it.

    • @tughillrc6327
      @tughillrc6327  Рік тому

      Wayne, I know the feeling about missing a plane I sold. I sold the EC1500 V1 and have not replaced it with the V2 because I own the Avios C-130 V2 and think it flys much better with no props spinning off in flight.For a non gryo plane it is very forgiving and has no bad stall tendencies. It flys slow spot on and landings are much easier. Glad you enjoyed the video and Thanks for watching 👍

    Nice maiden. The take offs were drama free. Even Stuart spun his out on the first few tries. You have to land like 1 degree off parallel to the water or she skips. You can fly her off grass too, and landing is easy, just like any belly lander. Did you set up Differential? That eliminates the need for a water rudder, and makes coordinated turns even easier. Lots of info in the RC Groups forum.

      Thanks for the advice, Its my first full bottom floatplane I will get the hang of it because I will fly it till I am silk on every landing. I will do some grass and snow ops also.Thanks for watching👍

      Reverse is nice when you get hung up on weed beds as well. The whole reservoir is shallow deepest water is 12 to 15 feet and full of bass and blue gill.Thanks for watching and subscribing more cool videos soon.
