Not buying that one. Love the Horizon Hobby UMX Air Tractor. I am shying away from the questionable craft like that. I waste enough money on this hobby now. lol. 4 Traxxas vehicles, many RC Planes. You TWO ROCK! I do enjoy your videos.
I'm glad I finished watching the video!! I went to your link for the plane and was thinking about getting it because of the price. I went back to finish the video to see how you liked it.👍
Hiya guys I just bought this plane and assemble-d it , very impressed , such a quality plane , so far I've not been game to go do a maiden.....I think I got the dud electronics one...... the surface movements are tragic in some modes,jittery., the stabilizer doesn't know where to re-center to, I might be missing something so have to sit down with it again and try and figure that out. I think the minute beep might be for a battery timer ? as no room for a lipo alarm .... I certainly hope I can make sense of it and get it in the sky..... Love to you all 😉😎
This plane can actually take a Futaba or Spektrum satelite reciever, so that you can use a much better radio, perhaps setting it up with dual rates and expo will give you get better control over it than using the stabilising mode. Unfortunatly, shipping was at least 50$ for me, so that makes it a clear no anyway.
I have this same plane, was very excited, I had exact same results. Controlled flight was really only achieved with stabilizing on and was still very twitchy then, just about had it lined out to become manageable in non stabilized, went down, motor didn’t get cut, everything was hot and all surfaces where twitching. It’s toast now. Bad experience.
Airframe looks nice, but it seems the electronics are sub-par. The opposite of the Radiolink A560, looks a bit clumsy, but flies great and can take a lickin' but keeps on tickin'
Obviously needs a better ESC. Also looked tail heavy. Get those problems ironed out and it might be a good plane Nate. Also can you bind it, to a decent radio? Thank you for an honest review. Sorry it had to end, in Smoke and tears lol. 😁
I bought one of those last week and the first time I fly it the same thing happened . How do you fix that, do you have to buy a new electronic circuit or just one thing to fix thanks
When I bought this plane and flew it, smoke came out of the ESC and it stopped working. Is it because the ESC is running out of space? Please let me know if you know how to fix this.
While I'm not a fan of AliExpress, I can only applaud burning Motion RC. Just as bad as HobbyKing. I'd rather part more for something that works, or in the rare case of it not? Having good tech and customer support. Motion and HK have both failed miserably on product support and don't get my hard earned dimes anymore. Thanks for sharing the good, the bad and the ugly!!!
Yeah I ordered a couple batteries and several props from Motion RC and I never got my order, this was about 2 months ago, It took over a month before I got to fly again so needless to say I was pissed lol
Not bad honestly! Might have to try and repair this one and get it flying properly! If not, it’ll make a great project for someone else. All depends if the kiddos let me get to this one 😉😅😁⚓️
Couldn't get mine to bind to the transmitter, might have to drop in a Spektrum receiver and use my Dx18. It did connect briefly and the motor fired up, but the servos are all locked up, very jittery.
The AMA folded like a cheap suit when it came to protecting the hobby and it's members from the terribly heavy hand of the FAA with it's redicoulous registration and transmitter ID requirements under the false pretense of public safety. Shame on the AMA for not stepping up when it mattered most. SHAME
Amen. Like the ATF they’ve forgotten that the entire point of their existence was to fight for the rights of Americans, not assist the tyrants in weaseling them away. Unfortunately there are alternatives to ATF, but there is no alternative to AMA, and all the clubs and events require AMA memberships to join and fly, so they’ll never learn their lesson unless there are some kind of consequences. They’ll just continue to grow into another parasitic organization that collects money and makes laws.
6-7 Mph wind is not windy!!! That is a calm day for me. Wish I had that low of wind speed. Soooo where was the smoke? I didn't see any. I was hoping for a raging fire!!!
I have one and it’s junk. Servo throws are wrong, radio is hard to figure out and has no adjustments. Instructions and support are non existent. Glad to see I’m not the only one who has issues flying this thing.
All electronics run on smoke. As soon as the smoke comes out, it stops working. ;) That thing looked mighty squirely. And I don't think I've ever seen you really lose it like that one. Looked kinda tail heavy.
Literally bought one of these a few weeks ago and it was shocking. Rudder servo broke super quickly. And my ESC burnt out after a slow taxi into grass. Don’t buy this crap It flew badly in non-stabilised and stabilised was meh flying. Hovering was good tho. But I did not like it
Hi Nate,are the electronics easy accessible?..to change out the electronics for better stuff?...Plane looks nice,i think it has the capability to be a good 3d plane to practice acrobatics,God bless you guys,great filming abbey,as always! With love from the Netherlands!!
Hello, can you please comment a bit on the three different flight modes ? - Switch at right corner in up position: Normal servo reaction; no gyro assistance. - Switch in centre position: After motor power on: Elevator goes up to appr. 50% deflection; gyros active. - Switch in low position: Elevator goes up to max. deflection and stays there (no control via stick possible. Other rudders can be controlled, but are not self centering when airplane is in nominal horizontal orientation. Thanks very much in advance !

You can throw a $15 ESC in it and have a cheap beater plane 😊
Good looking plane. Just gets a little toasty. Gotta try them all...
You never know until your in the air , thanks for your honesty . An God bless .
Late squad tonight happy flying all this this why love Nate and Abbey always honest about stuff and Nate still the best at flying 😊👍👏⚓️⚓️⚓️⚓️
Yup...smoking is bad!! Do you carry a fire extinguisher!! Thanks Saylors for this enlightening review!! 💟👍😘
Thank you for your honesty and great advice and information
So happy to know that what we do is appreciated 👍😁😎⚓️
If want a great beginner airplane to learn how to fly, buy the echine warbirds. You can can't go wrong with them. And I have never seen one smoke!
Not buying that one. Love the Horizon Hobby UMX Air Tractor. I am shying away from the questionable craft like that. I waste enough money on this hobby now. lol. 4 Traxxas vehicles, many RC Planes. You TWO ROCK! I do enjoy your videos.
Bless both of you 🙏🏻
I'm glad I finished watching the video!! I went to your link for the plane and was thinking about getting it because of the price. I went back to finish the video to see how you liked it.👍
I've had planes smoke... just befor they stop working!! lol
Everyone on utube strikes out with bad rc, very very few Publish. Great channel. Ignore the Trolls

Bummer on the plane. Maybe slim chance you got a bad one 🤔❓️. Great videoing though 😉. ⚓️⚓️👍💚💛🧡👍😉👍⚓️⚓️.
Looks super squirrelly 🐿️!
Abby and Nate y'all rock! Love the channel and content! Peace

SMH 🤦 NOT the smoke I was hoping a 3D plane would have.
Good honesty 👍
Glad I watched the ENTIRE video before clicking “Buy-It-Now” 😂
Thanks for the great review.

Controlled flight was really only achieved with stabilizing on and was still very twitchy then, just about had it lined out to become manageable in non stabilized, went down, motor didn’t get cut, everything was hot and all surfaces where twitching.

I'll pass on that plane , and buy the Cessna 182 .
It's under a $ 100.00 too .
God Bless you all !!!
I do appreciate the honesty, that would be in my trash,,, just being honest
Airframe looks nice, but it seems the electronics are sub-par. The opposite of the Radiolink A560, looks a bit clumsy, but flies great and can take a lickin' but keeps on tickin'
Is it tail heavy ?
Id like to see a follow up vid on what happened. I also would have liked to see you put the battery back in just to see what happens. Lol
Obviously needs a better ESC. Also looked tail heavy. Get those problems ironed out and it might be a good plane Nate. Also can you bind it, to a decent radio? Thank you for an honest review. Sorry it had to end, in Smoke and tears lol. 😁
Yo thats exactly what mine did. Fried the batt and esc at the same time.
I bought one of those last week and the first time I fly it the same thing happened .
How do you fix that, do you have to buy a new electronic circuit or just one thing to fix thanks
Why not watch our video Before you buy it? 🤔⚓️
@@TheRcSaylors lol
Hey man just got one and built it love it but you have any idea about a baterry upgrade flight time too short
Yeah that don't look too good. And what's up with those ailerons? Permanent flaps or air brakes?
Aileron stabilizers, used in 3d flying.
Question for you Nate. Would this airframe be a good home for the electronics out of my UMX Timber X that's more hot glue than foam now???
When I bought this plane and flew it, smoke came out of the ESC and it stopped working. Is it because the ESC is running out of space? Please let me know if you know how to fix this.

Cheap ESC ( Electronic Speed Controller ) and perhaps other electronics such as the servos, etc.. Is this why its price-point is what it is ?
cool plane

Holy “smoke”
man i need to get A.M.A
U need to put a new esc in before flying
Very good advice! 👍💯😎⚓️
@@TheRcSaylorsI’m gonna get this plane!

Well said & quite complete. A bunch of AMA patsies is what they really are.

One would think that a RC plane that comes with a smoke system would cost more.
This looks like techone venus from many years ago
Literally bought one of these a few weeks ago and it was shocking.
Rudder servo broke super quickly.
And my ESC burnt out after a slow taxi into grass.
Don’t buy this crap
It flew badly in non-stabilised and stabilised was meh flying. Hovering was good tho.
But I did not like it
Will you review it again?
Not enough wing
Hi Nate,are the electronics easy accessible?..to change out the electronics for better stuff?...Plane looks nice,i think it has the capability to be a good 3d plane to practice acrobatics,God bless you guys,great filming abbey,as always! With love from the Netherlands!!
Well, I liked it, and then I didn't. Lol
Its a bit jumpy
Bummer. $100...gone
😁😁👍👍
Wow :-)
Liked the video, but not buying the plane.
The wing area is too small for that style of model. Junk.

Definitely fake. Scam. What video did they do this on? I’ll block that account. Thanks!
First!
Woot! You got first! 👍😁😎💯⚓️
Just say the plane sucks... and dont buy it...
This appears to fly like absolute shit.
lol I was ready to order it...then poof
