These XK planes really are a fantastic way to get into the hobby. I started with the XK A160 Skylark(yes, they corrected the tip stall issues) and it’s still one of my favorite planes. Super inexpensive way to enter the hobby and still actually fly planes that work. I would NOT HAVE STAYED IN THIS HOBBY had it not been for these XK planes teaching me to fly, without having to refinance my home. I’m a big fan. Also, you can dial these things in pretty well by adjusting the servo arms to different holes. They do really limit your bank angles in safe mode, but if you get in a tight spot, you can use the throttle to assist with turns.
I will do just that!!! Almost ready to move, and this little plane is pretty cool for cheap! I want to make it a good flying, AND beautiful plane. Hopefully you'll check out the mods, when they come out.
@@BrianPhillipsRC ill be waiting for the master of mods to work. Your mod videos have been a big help to me along with the radio setup. All I can say is thank you for the videos. And big thanks to Mrs.Megan for her time and efforts. Just having fun RC'n with friends and family
@@BrianPhillipsRC Hi I saw the model plane on Walmart online for $120 while I was searching for planes that flies and I came to UA-cam to see if it really flew. And your video popped up.😊
@@BrianPhillipsRC Hello Brian I am try to get back in flying I havent been behind stick of controller in four years i know order this plane but do you know some planes out there that is easy to fly ??
@@s197stang8 I'd Suggest The Volentex V2 Pusher Motor, Great Trainer/Glider, Fast Assembly & Take Apart, Flys Great With Wheels or None, Long Flight Times+ Only $100+... ;~)P The WLToys SkyKing Is Smaller & Cheaper + The FirStar Mini Is Same Size/Price As This 380 Jet Butt Probably Flys Much Better & Looks Like A STOL!?
yes, I do - here's two choices... Sport Cub S UMX RTF - amzn.to/2CA3npq Apprentice S 15e (RTF) - amzn.to/2JFWLJH ...BUT, this little A380 is pretty cool!
I'm so glad you're loving it!!! I got a Jumper, T8SG Plus, but can't figure out how to use it yet - SUUUUPPPPPPER annoying, it's kinda killing me!!! I need to get it working, so I can actually fly the wings off these little beauties!!! P.S. I had an unscheduled landing of my BOY-ing 747 into a 75-100 foot tree (at the EXACT top of the tree.......) Now waiting for the wind to help me out ;) We'll see!
Just Gorgeous.....can't wait for the mods Brain. She needs Flaps and Nav lights. For 60 bucks its worth a try Imo. Horizon Hobby needs to do a Umx or a park flyer commercial bird asap. Always enjoy your videos Sir and Happy Flyin from Western Pa.
Thanks Miller! I agree HH needs to make one, both a 1.2m and a UMX!!! As for this little beauty, she looks so good, but not easy to fly. I think for the cash, she's worth keeping as a decoration!!!
Hi Brian, I just bought this plane together with the Boeing 787, I was wondering since you had a video of the "boyin 747" (that name still creeps me out), if the Lipo 700 mah will fit into the A380 and/or 787. Thanks and love your videos!
Gee Whizz B , It’s about time you put out another airliner vid .. LOL.. just kidding I know your busy with the new home. Yes needs four 3mm EDF’s and aileron’s perhaps fowler split flaps and a awesome set of scale lighting ! You can do this B. How cool would this airliner be in a micro EDF w/ everything I mentioned plus ,, a really expensive set of retracts. I’d go all in on a purchase like that. Just might have to settle for this though. I have the C117 Stratocaster this would look great parked together.
...but for real. I want to make her fly well. I don't know about flaps and LED's, but I want full pitch, roll, yaw control, and this bird is a total beauty!!!
Hi Brian greetings from the uk really nice plane you flew it really well looking forward to seeing planes take off and land on your own personal runway once it is complete keep up the good work
I want to mod this plane SOOOOOOOOOOOO badly. I will be doing it soon. She's such a looker, but need to be tamed, and I have some ideas on how to keep the gorgeous scale looks, but gain some rock solid flight performance...if all goes as planned :) I hope you'll stick around an see what I do!
Hi Brian thank you for your reply I’ll definately by sticking around to see what mods you do to this aircraft and any other aircraft in the future I am a big fan I’ve been thinking of getting myself a UMx mig 15 don’t know weather it’s on your shopping list...weather here in the uk is wet and windy at the moment just hovering helicopters indoors waiting for better weather...happy flying and good luck with the new house
I would never discourage you from getting a plane you love, BUT, UMX EDF's are usually pretty disappointing. They are not powerful, and not as fun as you will expect...but if you get it, I wish you the very best!!!
Hello After two positions the control pilot stopped working. Does not detect transport. After switching on the LED is off. Led only lights up as long as I keep the button turned on.
Got it flew it once didn’t crash it. Went to put the battery back in after letting it charge and now it won’t work. I’ve tried 4 different 3.7 batteries.
By any chance could you show me the receiver and which parts go where please? I spent quite a lot to buy spare parts for the air car a380 so I could make it myself. I’d really appreciate it if you did and thank you!
Hi Brian, i have seen many of your video very interesting, i fly jet my self , now there is one airbus a320 that you made a video of supreme hobbies a320 i really like that plane but supreme hobbies is no longer. where can i get it ?
I don't think you can :( I WISH you could, but the A320 has been out of stock everywhere for a long time. You could try getting on RCgroups, and check the classifieds.
Olá o meu deu problema ele quando conecta no controle remoto ele desliga e não liga mais , sabe me dizer qual é o motivo que ele não está funcionando ??
When you check both battery in the transmitter and then battery in the radio. Remember, these things are goofy...you gotta power up the Plane FIRST, then the Transmitter - this is not typical for virtually any other RC aircraft. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Quando você verifica a bateria no transmissor e a bateria no rádio. Lembre-se, essas coisas são bobas ... você precisa ligar o avião primeiro e depois o transmissor - isso não é típico de praticamente qualquer outra aeronave RC.
When I heard the sirens I was worried that it might be the FAA, reinforced by local law enforcement, coming to haul you away because you didn’t have a UAS registration number applied somewhere on the exterior of your model ... 😳 That’s right, it’s the new government mandate as of February 25, 2019. If your model weighs more than 250g (8.82 ounces), you need to apply for a pilot registration with the FAA if you are going to operate it outdoors. Failure to adhere to the new mandate could mean fines of up to $250,000 and imprisonment for three years. Isn’t big government just wonderful ? 🙁
Update: Looks like you’re ok. That model weighs 76g with the battery installed. We can all breath easy now because you aren’t a felon due to this RC flight video. Whew ! 😃 That cool 70mm EDF Viperjet that you have weighs 70 ounces all up flying weight. That one will land you up in jail without a registration. 😲
Yeah, our government can't stop malicious phone calls for MILLIONS of Americans an HOUR, but it's very concerned about us EVIL RC pilots!?!??! So ridiculous. I'm about sick and tired of it. The list of grievance against King George was FAR less egregious than our current government's daily new over-reaches. Disgusting way to throw away a "Free Society"!!!!!
HI brian, Good to see another RC video. But I got one question on how youtube works. When you say to your subscribers to support your channel by purchasing from the links you post, can you tell me how that supports you or your channel. When I am in the market for the products that you post, all I do is click on the link and purchase from Amazon? thanks for letting me know
Hey, dude. I’ve always loved your videos. I’ve bought some great aircraft after watching some of your vids. I should probably figure out how to PM you, but just a couple of comments from a creator point of view: I’ve seen comments from other viewers regarding your audio output. I’ve been agreeing with them, even though you hadn’t seen a problem. I suspect that some of us with older phones (6s here) can not get enough volume, while those with newer iPhones have more volume to deal with. But even with that in mind, unless you’re doing a close-up, your volume is much less than your camera lady. If you’re not using a shotgun mic, I’d recommend one. If you are, then I’d recommend a lapallier mic. Looks like the Rode Wireless Go setup might be a good fit for you. Also, I might suggest taking the exposure setting off of ‘auto’. The exposure flickering is quite distracting. Again, love your vids. Just wanna help you polish them...
I appreciate your concerns, and we share them, but at the moment in our crazy busy lives, adding another layer of video editing would be video-prohibitive....What I mean by this, is that if it's any harder to film, we will simply not do it. We're very strapped for time, and when we get some more spare time, we have plans to improve this problem. I do get that it's tough for those who are watching on a tablet or smartphone, but this is something that I can't help for the moment. Possibly, a pair of headphone might help? OR a small set of speakers? We watch on the desktop, which I realize is a bit of a nuance anymore, but even still, we can crank up the volume however high we want...same on our tv, where we have a large AVR to turn up the volume as much as we can handle. I hope you'll be patience with us as we work to improve audio quality. We don't want to lose people over such a seemingly minor detail, but we understand there IS a concern.
So, I have ruined my last rc plane. Here in the UK I need something that will last and is quite crash resistant. What you recommend getting this one? Good Video though!
I love Horizon Hobby, but they're more expensive over there. Have you flown the Phoenix Evo? OR the ASW28? Phoenix Evolution 1.6m/2.6m - amzn.to/2FGsR6e / bit.ly/2yPQ8nI BG Phoenix V2 2m - amzn.to/2UW7AQy / ban.ggood.vip/5a5y BG Volantex ASW28 2.54m - amzn.to/2ABU3zI / bit.ly/2VlLtBm BG They're plug and fly, so you have to put them together, so check out the playlists I've made if you decide to get into them. You'll also need a Radio, Batteries, Chargers etc... it's a lot more involved, but WAY better experience!
Thanks, do you think they ship from banggood to the UK, I have had a look and it seems to take 30 days. I am currently looking on eBay, they seem to have a better range. But I was looking for the A380 at a sensible price.
I always find lamp posts anf trees amd model magnets... if you think about them they suck in your plane. By the way i love the first launch, straight at your neighbours front door! :-)
Whatever size you can squeeze in there. It's better with a heavier pack, in my experience. I was using up to 700mAh packs, if I recall...but they have to be long and slender.
Brian Phillips Maybe not...just got a notification that I'm mysteriously getting a refund in the amount of the A120/A380. I'm guessing they're out of stock. >_
EXACTLY ;) Do you want the inside scoop? I'm thinking of using the Multi-Purpose Rx Brick from my F-16 UMX...then I'll have a tailevon setup, plus a physical rudder....but I gotta figure out how to handle the brushless motor output. I want to make this plane have full three axis control, rather than the XK Pseudo "control"....which I can only liken to an old left, right, forward RC car, where you didn't have control of how much to turn, only to turn 100% left or right...only you're flying!!!
I wonder if one could remove the electronics and install an AS3X receiver and servos from a Horizon Hobby Park Zone plane like the P51 and give this bird true ailerons, rudder and elevator and maybe even flaps. Maybe get 2-4 ducted fans from Horizon Hobby replacements for their micro ducted fan planes such as the MiG15... I’m sure it would be expensive but it would be totally awesome.
I was planning on doing this soon :) I hope you'll check it out! Totally awesome, it would be, exactly!!!! Horizon Hobby - ARE YOU LISTENING ?!?!?!?!?? .....probably not ;(
I had considered this too, but don't have the heart to buy a new UMX, then just kill it for NOT being an Airbus A380...but if only I knew someone with a crashed one....hummmmmm
I don't know of a link to buy only foam...this plane is fairly inexpensive, and I'm pretty sure they don't offer it as a KIT (vs what I reviewed, which is RTF)
Hi Brian, good looking little bird, looks a little squirrely to fly, I well probably pass, really nice review, you wife is really good shooting these videos, if you want something that is totally different, check out the FV- 31 Cypher VTOL EDF from Flex Innovations, this thing is totally amazing.Flex Innovations don't have a lot of aircraft but what they do have are really cool and very well thought out and the build quality is extremely good....
It is very squirrel...but it's just the air frame I've been looking for. I have plans for this little beauty. I hope you might check it out when I post the mod videos :)
HEEEEUUUUGGGGGGE, that you caught that! Very, veeary good! Glad you're catching my drift...very astute! Did you read the title??? We're gonna make Airbus Great Again (MAGA)
yes, the wind will almost certainly be the end of this plane, if it were a bit more intense...but my mods will help with this. I hope you'll check it out, when I get them together.
Amazing little devil my friend. When I saw thumbnail I really thought that it has four sexi little EDF units on. I do have a bird like this with two props from SilverLite. It was my first plane ever to fly. Thanks for posting and big salute from Slovenia, Pilot Robert
A huge salute from USA!!! Thanks for stopping in Robert! I think I'm gonna make it pretty sweet, but loads of work ahead :) P.S. Did you see my Subscriber gift yet??? ( ua-cam.com/video/vyd5-lPsnio/v-deo.html )
I said the elevator control authority "leaves a lot to be desired", meaning it's not great, not that it's not there... This plane flies, no doubt, but it's not good flying stock (which I will fix). It's still VERY cool, and very fun...but not "Easy" to fly, and it's certainly not easy to control. I think to an experienced RC flier, it might seem "okay", which it is, but to a newbie, it'd be in a tree ;)
@@BrianPhillipsRC I'd stuff the guts from a HH UMX in there and fly the mess out of it! Great looking plane; I wanna see how you tinker with it and make it better! Keep on keeping on!
dude should you really be flying this in a housing estate?....as much as I love r/c models I NEVER fly them near houses...what would you say to a house owner if you loose control of it and it crashes through someone's window and showers them with shards of broken glass
Exactly what I've said many times before...sorry....then I would proceed to fix the problem I created. This is what big boys do when they make mistakes. P.S. I could run this plane into my own face and I'd be fine...get real
@@BrianPhillipsRC it's you who needs to get real...it's people like you who fly irresponsibly that give the rest of us a bad name...and yes it might be so light that it wouldn't break skin if it crashed...that's all IRRELEVANT..it's the IMPRESSION that people get...you want to fly then do it on club land...if you were into dirt bikes would you ride up and down on the local green area in your housing estate?....I doubt it very much.

Hello After two positions the control pilot stopped working. Does not detect transport. After switching on the LED is off. Led only lights up as long as I keep the button turned on.
Have you tried to make sure the lipo is fully charged? That's where I'd start. If the Lipo is LOW, it may not bind. Can you try another lipo???
Do you think it would be strong enough to have a GoPro on top of it? Or would it be to heavy?
not a go prop - too heavy... FPV - sure!
Where did you buy it? I want one.
In the description, the link is there just for you :)
There from amazon just look up airbus a380 rc plane

Phoenix Evolution 1.6m/2.6m - amzn.to/2FGsR6e / bit.ly/2yPQ8nI BG
Phoenix V2 2m - amzn.to/2UW7AQy / ban.ggood.vip/5a5y BG
Volantex ASW28 2.54m - amzn.to/2ABU3zI / bit.ly/2VlLtBm BG
They're plug and fly, so you have to put them together, so check out the playlists I've made if you decide to get into them. You'll also need a Radio, Batteries, Chargers etc... it's a lot more involved, but WAY better experience!
Thanks, do you think they ship from banggood to the UK, I have had a look and it seems to take 30 days. I am currently looking on eBay, they seem to have a better range. But I was looking for the A380 at a sensible price.
Sure, Banggood is not the fastest all the time, but that's who I'd recommend for this item. Some parts of the world are not as fast.
Would this work indoors in a big golf dome? Indoor flying season coming too soon.
Yes, and it would be very fun too!!!
I tell my wife that despite the young age on the box it is generally meant for adults in their 40s to 80s.
I love this rc airplane and video quality was also so good
Glad you enjoyed it!
What is the price of this item in amazon
Link is in the description.
Out of stock ☹️
I always find lamp posts anf trees amd model magnets... if you think about them they suck in your plane. By the way i love the first launch, straight at your neighbours front door! :-)
Whatsthe max battery ud reccomend for the Airbus A380 XK?
Whatever size you can squeeze in there. It's better with a heavier pack, in my experience. I was using up to 700mAh packs, if I recall...but they have to be long and slender.
Thanks for that info 😊👍
Mine is en route. ✈️
Also bought the Su27 to compare.
Nice!!!
Brian Phillips Maybe not...just got a notification that I'm mysteriously getting a refund in the amount of the A120/A380. I'm guessing they're out of stock. >_
That's SUPER annoying!!!!! I'm sorry about that!
Oh my goodness is this a plane video 😁
I know!!!! Totally weird right ;) LOL
LOL. It looks awesome for sure. Lets see how it flies after your mod
EXACTLY ;)
Do you want the inside scoop?
I'm thinking of using the Multi-Purpose Rx Brick from my F-16 UMX...then I'll have a tailevon setup, plus a physical rudder....but I gotta figure out how to handle the brushless motor output. I want to make this plane have full three axis control, rather than the XK Pseudo "control"....which I can only liken to an old left, right, forward RC car, where you didn't have control of how much to turn, only to turn 100% left or right...only you're flying!!!
I wonder if one could remove the electronics and install an AS3X receiver and servos from a Horizon Hobby Park Zone plane like the P51 and give this bird true ailerons, rudder and elevator and maybe even flaps. Maybe get 2-4 ducted fans from Horizon Hobby replacements for their micro ducted fan planes such as the MiG15... I’m sure it would be expensive but it would be totally awesome.
I was planning on doing this soon :) I hope you'll check it out!
Totally awesome, it would be, exactly!!!!
Horizon Hobby - ARE YOU LISTENING ?!?!?!?!?? .....probably not ;(
Brian Phillips take the engines off the A10 Thunderbolt and that’d probably work perfect.
I had considered this too, but don't have the heart to buy a new UMX, then just kill it for NOT being an Airbus A380...but if only I knew someone with a crashed one....hummmmmm
Brian Phillips the EDF units are $15 each and the A10 AS3X controller has duel speed controllers for $65. For servos just takem off other planes.
오오알시
What material is the A380?
Oh yeah about modifying, Hydrodip it
1000 subscribers with a dead channel challenge According to QuadCoptor101, it’s EPP foam.
StyroFoam

Cool Video... Where do I find the Mod of this one...?
I'm sorry, no mod video yet :( We've been super busy, and haven't had time for that type of project yet. I'm sorry to keep you waiting!!!
19:29 LOL
You liked that ;)
Do u recommend it
Sure, but gotta fly in calm to make it fun ;)
Can i buy only the foam? Mine the wing has broken. Please share the link
I don't know of a link to buy only foam...this plane is fairly inexpensive, and I'm pretty sure they don't offer it as a KIT (vs what I reviewed, which is RTF)
Hi Brian, good looking little bird, looks a little squirrely to fly, I well probably pass, really nice review, you wife is really good shooting these videos, if you want something that is totally different, check out the FV- 31 Cypher VTOL EDF from Flex Innovations, this thing is totally amazing.Flex Innovations don't have a lot of aircraft but what they do have are really cool and very well thought out and the build quality is extremely good....
It is very squirrel...but it's just the air frame I've been looking for. I have plans for this little beauty. I hope you might check it out when I post the mod videos :)
I watched, and it looks pretty impressive, but you know that I'm kind of a scale guy, right?
I want to see a mod done to this
Great video Brian! maybe attach a few rockets? Make it go Mach 5? Once again Great job!
LOL - that would be pretty crazy!
@@BrianPhillipsRC My solution to make anything more Epic
LOL - and more flammable too!!! Maybe if my mods fail???? LOL
@@BrianPhillipsRC LOL but that was the direction I was heading into :) DESTRUCTION
So you did it again! SCARY ! It was it on purpose? LOL 1:16 Or I am watching to much news? LOL
HEEEEUUUUGGGGGGE, that you caught that! Very, veeary good! Glad you're catching my drift...very astute!
Did you read the title??? We're gonna make Airbus Great Again (MAGA)
Too much or to much
@@theoztreecrasher2647 im indo.. tolol asu lu
fun as always sir..stay away from trees😉
I think the wind will dictate where this plane is going. Ha ha.
@@JoshWeaverRC very brave of you sir to one up me sir😛
@@CaptainPhoton64 No worries. The wind will beat us both down. 🌬🛬
yes, the wind will almost certainly be the end of this plane, if it were a bit more intense...but my mods will help with this. I hope you'll check it out, when I get them together.
@@BrianPhillipsRC if anybody can do it brian it would be you...
Mine is coming on the 28
Nice! Good luck Chris Smilth!
How much
Check the description for a link ;)
Hope it doesn't have MCAS, sorry, couldn't resist.
LOL - so that it would fly without incident and never have an issue if properly used?
where did you buy this?
Description has a link for you :)
I want this plane link to buy
In the video description ;) Super fun plane - good luck!
I have the ax act thing
Nice!
It's a a380 800 tun tun tun😱😱😱
Is it possible to peel of the decals on top of the wings?
Benny 3053 should be.. as long as it’s not painted on
YES, I already did one wing by accident. I was hoping to show that in my mod series, since it took 3.5 seconds ;)
It appears to be water transfer. They come off BEAUTIFULLY!!! I will be fixing the windshield, size and location, just like I did on my bigger A380
Which country are you in
USA
Amazing little devil my friend. When I saw thumbnail I really thought that it has four sexi little EDF units on. I do have a bird like this with two props from SilverLite. It was my first plane ever to fly. Thanks for posting and big salute from Slovenia, Pilot Robert
A huge salute from USA!!! Thanks for stopping in Robert!
I think I'm gonna make it pretty sweet, but loads of work ahead :)
P.S. Did you see my Subscriber gift yet??? ( ua-cam.com/video/vyd5-lPsnio/v-deo.html )
Glad to see your plane videos again... By the way what happened to you? You talk and behave kind of funny🤣🙃😁...
yes, I'm glad to be doing these RC videos. That's what I'd be doing if we weren't building a house... soon, VERY soon, it will be done.
Another plane shipped in a garbage bag! Nice.
Oh yeah!!! If it comes in a box, that's just soooooo uppity! :)
Alot of people gave it a good rating so uhh, TO AMAZON AND BEYOND!
:)

Pitches into the vertical
Comments on lack of pitch authority.
I said the elevator control authority "leaves a lot to be desired", meaning it's not great, not that it's not there... This plane flies, no doubt, but it's not good flying stock (which I will fix). It's still VERY cool, and very fun...but not "Easy" to fly, and it's certainly not easy to control. I think to an experienced RC flier, it might seem "okay", which it is, but to a newbie, it'd be in a tree ;)
@@BrianPhillipsRC I'd stuff the guts from a HH UMX in there and fly the mess out of it! Great looking plane; I wanna see how you tinker with it and make it better! Keep on keeping on!
totally planning on it, but just getting moved into the new house, so might be a while :(
Why does your kitchen look like romanatwoods
I think it's because he copied our house - LOL ;)
someone tell if this guy a professional ?
Depends on your definition of "professional".
I thought you were at Roman Atwood's house
Not quite :)
Not enough whelles
EXACTLY!!!!! There needs to be like 16 more, right?
Yes I thank so
Absolutely rubbish quality airplane. Eep broke in 5 mins after buying. What to do now?
Eep? What is that? Are you saying the EPP (Foam)? How did it come to be broken?
𝗩𝗲𝗿𝗶 𝗻𝗶𝗰𝗲
Thanks! This little plane is amazing, if the weather is PERFECT ;)
Please ask your Camera Crew to stop giggling.
I will do that
@@BrianPhillipsRC I like the giggling
Weird. Its sound like mosquitoes
Yes it does!!! Annoying, isn't it :(
Imagine being his neighbor 😂
We were friends with most all of our neighbors ;)
Hyundai the car company is now working on flying vehicles
LOL - exactly!
dude should you really be flying this in a housing estate?....as much as I love r/c models I NEVER fly them near houses...what would you say to a house owner if you loose control of it and it crashes through someone's window and showers them with shards of broken glass
Exactly what I've said many times before...sorry....then I would proceed to fix the problem I created. This is what big boys do when they make mistakes.
P.S. I could run this plane into my own face and I'd be fine...get real
@@BrianPhillipsRC it's you who needs to get real...it's people like you who fly irresponsibly that give the rest of us a bad name...and yes it might be so light that it wouldn't break skin if it crashed...that's all IRRELEVANT..it's the IMPRESSION that people get...you want to fly then do it on club land...if you were into dirt bikes would you ride up and down on the local green area in your housing estate?....I doubt it very much.
Skip to 22:50 if you just want to see it fly
Check the description....
It's begging to be modified ! With ducted fans,rudder and FLAPS !
yeah, but four UMX EDF's would be cost prohibitive!
