Nobody on UA-cam helps beginners like you do Bryan. It’s much appreciated
Thanks Michael! We're glad you think so ;)
I second that, thank you. I’ve got mine on the way now I can’t wait
Agreed, every time I purchase a plane, I look for Brian. Now as an experienced pilot, I still look here for tips. Thank you and camera crew.
Have watched hundreds of hours of your vids now, but am about to set up my first BNF jet manually with my brand new NX8...THANK YOU so much for the ridiculously detailed radio setup walkthrough and the deep dive on D/R & expo on this one, exactly what I needed. You rock!
AWESOME! We're so glad you finally took the plunge ;) GOOD LUCK!
Just ordered this via your amazon link. I appreciate your thorough videos guys; from the building, flying, binding, and explaining the details, it helps a lot to make a decision. This is my third plane purchase in about 10 days using your link because you both do such an awesome job here.
Thanks for all you do!
Thanks! Glad you're doing it too. We appreciate it very much!
Ok Brian, I have said in other postings I was finally getting back into the hobby. I am down loading manuals and UA-cam reviews of all of the planes I own. Here's another one! This makes 5 straight reviews in a row. Amazing thanks for the great reviews and help.
SWEET! Thanks David!
Just want to send out a big thanks to you Brian and camera crew (Megan) for being such great ambassadors for this hobby. I started watching your channel about 2 months ago and have learned so much from your videos. Every purchase I have made comes from your recommendations and in two months time I have added 3 Planes, 4 Helis and an NX6 Transmitter to my new fleet. No where near your numbers I'm sure, but give me time... My only concern is that my friends and family may be planning an intervention!!! Appreciate all you do and thanks again! Happy Flying!
If they do an intervention, make sure to convert them over to the RC Addiction ;)
Thanks for the kind words
Thanks for the in depth detail on setting up the NX6 transmitter. Really helpful for me being fairly new to the hobby.
You're welcome Marc! We really want to help people just getting into the hobby...there's so much to learn, and I want to help you out how I can!
Well - Thanks to you I have my T-28 Trojan 1.1m set-up and ready to take out to the field later today! Wish me luck on my maiden!
Good luck Brendan! It's a great plane, and I'm sure you'll LOVE it!!!
Just received my T-28 hopefully I can maiden this week. Always come to your channel awesome that your so detailed on the unboxing and builds.
Awesome Juan! So glad you're here with us, and GOOD LUCK!!! Great plane, so much fun!
I did pre-order this plane with both 4s and 3s, nx 6 channel, servo/battery checker, and the 2100 charger from your link..thank you Bryan for your advice
Mike - Thank you so much! You'll LOVE this plane, and the stuff for it too ;) Thanks for helping to support us so much!!!
Thank you so much Brian! Finally took the time to program my NX8 w your instructions. Thank you for all the work and time you and your wife make for this passion.
Awesome! Glad you did too, Jeff! So much better, I suspect (than the DXS???)
@@BrianPhillipsRC I had the very old dx6i prior - I kind have been leaping toward in tech pretty quickly here. Lol
Thanks again 🙏
Awesome flying Brian! And you have the best camera crew on UA-cam! So many videos on here where you can’t even see the planes flying and she keeps them on screen and in focus the whole time. Thanks for the videos, this might be next plane.
I agree! We noticed she was really good only after we started...we didn't know from past camera skills...it was just a very happy accident ;) I've seen many of these videos you mentioned myself and it leads to lots a frustration indeed!
Awesome videos, i am a heli pilot for the last 11 years, started watching your content out of interest, got myself the T 28 in the week, and want to maiden it this weekend. :)
Welcome aboard! Fixed wing is so different, I bet you'll be super surprised, but you'll be able to fly just fine. Just remember to look out ahead of where you're flying, so you can make sure you have a clear path. You'll be flying like an expert in no time if you're 11 years into RC Helis
Bonjour Brian Phillips, bravo c'est une super démonstration de vol & de montage, j'aime bien ce T-28 Trojen. Bonne continuation de France.
Thanks Brigitte ;)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Merci Brigitte;)
Can’t thank you enough, went through this lesson step by step you are the greatest 🙏🏻
Awesome! Glad we could help!!!
Brian, the most awesome part of your videos is that you teach us everything we need to get off the ground safely!!! You do a great job with all of your demonstrations!!! Thank you so very much 🎉🎉🎉
Glad to help! We appreciate you being here with us!
Thanks for the review and tips Brian!! I'm glad I can watch your videos and actually learn something.
GO FLY! ✈🛩🛰
Glad to hear it! Thanks!!!
Well done again!!! Brian & Flight Crew. They have just arrived here in OZ so mine here on Tuesday. Cannot wait.
AWESOME! You will love it, if you get the opportunity!
You talked about this plane not having flaps but in truth it really doesn't need em because it's so light, I bet the battery weighs more than the plane. I love playing with flaps so I added em just because and I used YOUR -- FMS Ranger -- video and explanation to make it happen. If any of you guys want to add flaps to whatever plane you have just watch the -- FMS Ranger -- video and you can see the end result of what he did and you can take it from there. Mine turned out really good and I'm not a craftsman at all.
It just adds another dimension to your flying experience to do something like the flap addition and it's fun and easy too. And I know you're thinking - ~HELL~ I'm not cutting a chunk outta the wing of the plane I just bought, but measure twice and cut once.
Brian, thanks for adding so much to the RC hobby.
Exactly Timmy! This plane doesn't NEED flaps, but I want it to have flaps ;) So much fun, RIGHT!?!?!
The snow dude! It’s beautiful and your landings in between the snow banks on your runway are stellar! The snow on the roof of your “airport” looks like something from a postcard and this was another fun video! That T-28 is on fire!
Totally agree! The kids were super excited about the drift on the end of the house. They thought it was super cool, and I agree. The white on top of the roof is such a stark change from black roof!!!
I think another viewer inquired about some skis! I give that person credit for the idea but I was thinking the same thing! Snow landings for sure!
Could not have done it without this video!! One thing I missed was that the rates have to be set to high/100% to get the safe mode switch assignment to work...I tried toggling the switch a bunch of times when I was in low rates and it didn’t work until I switched it to high rates.
Good point...make sure you're in HI RATES
Not 100% sure if you got it yet....
You CAN, and will after you follow these steps - I've had this comment from probably 50 or more, just as adamant as you, and they got theirs working ;)
Step 1) Make sure you're BOUND with SAFE SELECT ON. If you're NOT 100% sure - DO IT AGAIN, and make sure the surfaces "Dance" through the mix TWICE at power up...NOT ONCE...Once means you're in AS3X only mode.
Step 2) Go to MONITOR MODE, and watch the switch change the condition of the channel you THINK is assigned to the SWITCH YOU WANT TO USE - If it doesn't change state, go to System Setup and make the Channel Assignment to that switch. Now exit the menu and verify the changes took in Monitor Mode.
Step 3) Now that you're 100% sure you're BOUND in SAFE Select, and you have an operational switch for channel (I think 5-8) assigned, go ahead and pull both sticks DOWN and IN, and then toggle the switch to a count to 10 (NOT 5)....most people don't count a FULL CYCLE of the switch...so they never get to 5 full back and forth cycles... On step 9 of 10, you'll see the surfaces twitch, and on 10 of 10 they'll "recenter" again.
Here's PROBABLY what you're doing wrong...it's a super easy mistake to make, and you'll immediately get it if you are doing this wrong...
Switch Up to Switch Down = 1
Switch Down to Switch Up = 2
Switch Up to Switch Down = 3
Switch Down to Switch Up = 4
Switch Up to Switch Down = 5
Switch Down to Switch Up = 6
Switch Up to Switch Down = 7
Switch Down to Switch Up = 8
Switch Up to Switch Down = 9
Switch Down to Switch Up = 10
When Horizon Hobby wrote those instructions they said 5 times, so this is what they meant, but it's confusing if not elaborated upon...
Switch Up to Switch Down = 0
Switch Down to Switch Up = 1
Switch Up to Switch Down = 1
Switch Down to Switch Up = 2
Switch Up to Switch Down = 2
Switch Down to Switch Up = 3
Switch Up to Switch Down = 3
Switch Down to Switch Up = 4
Switch Up to Switch Down = 4
Switch Down to Switch Up = 5
...pretty confusing, right??!?!?
Step 4) The ONLY issue that might prevent this all from working is that your sticks are WAY out of calibration... if so, the Tx might not realize you're in the Lower Left or Lower Right position, thus preventing the designation when you hit flip 10... so if this ends up being the case, which I highly doubt, then you need to calibrate your sticks and then follow back from step 2 maybe.
Good luck - you can do it!
Great instructional video. I appreciate the detail. Looks like a fun plane. Tell the camera crew she did a nice job also.
Thanks, will do!
I just started following you I love what your doing I just purchased real flight 9.5 I’m loving it you and camera crew keep videos coming mayvGOD continue to bless you guys
Thanks so much Darian, and welcome!!!
This video is one of the things that started me in this hobby. Thank you.
That's awesome! Love sharing the joy of this hobby with people, and it's a great encouragement to us when we hear we played a part in getting someone involved!
@@BrianPhillipsRC you’ve cost me a lot of money 🤓
Beautiful flight sequence, beautiful aircraft.
Thanks and agreed!
Man you just saved me on this. I learned so much about my NX8 tonight. I can’t thank you enough and I have the plane you reviewed here, but I won’t fly it until I learn more on my Eachine mini Trojan first, but I have everything set up in model I created thanks to you.
Excellent! Very glad we were able to help! So much more here, as you advance through the ranks!!!
Good luck, and happy flying!
I will be flying my 1.1m soon. About what throttle speed you recommend on this at landing if wind is calm? I don’t want come in too fast and bounce, but also not stall. I been flying the 1.1m exact model like this one on Realflight Evo and little small warbirds in 400mm like Eachine but I can’t land those for much training. 😂
I would say around 20 % throttle when landing, but then again, I'm pretty new to this hobby.
Good luck and I'm sure you get those landings!@@MayfieldCreekObservatory
I have coming to realize the value of the 1.1M Trojan. It really opens up the areas that you can fly in. We don't all have nice take off and landing areas. I wish Horizon offered more war birds in this format. I would buy them all.
Great video. Helped me out tremendously with my T28
Brian great job what I like best is the honest options you give. Keep up the good work👍🏼
Thanks, will do!
Late to this vid, but the Grey USAF Parkzone 1.1m T-28 was my first larger aircraft, coming from the Parkzone UM T-28. I got it second hand, it was already 7-8 years old when I got it. It flies like a dream and was a perfect step up for me. I still fly it today, plane is 12 years old...still performs like new. I can only imagine the newer e-flite versions of this aircraft can only be better, especially with AS3X and SAFE (Although mine is super stable without it)
Totally!
This video, make build and setup super easy. Thanks for your expertise which you share with a beginner like me.
Awesome! Thanks Steve! Glad we could help you out! So much more where that came from!
AND THE CAMERA CREW ARE GREAT AND VERY BRAVE WHEN HE DOES FLYBYES
She is good ;)
Picked this up (with your link of course) with the Black Friday deal. Can’t wait to get it in the air!!
SWEET - Thanks Jesse!
Your so lucky to live there, to have that view... clean cool air lovely landscape etc...
We are so blessed to be here!
BRAIN PHILLIPS AND HIS WIFE ARE BEST UA-camRS. funny and very detailed videos great presentation of products and the best hands down. Thank you both
Glad you like them!
Thanks to this man I was able to program my T-28 troja planes. I am new pilot
Thanks Elio! Glad we could help you get setup!
Love your videos my friend!!!! I have learned so much with you! Thank so much!!!!!
Thanks! So glad I could help!!!
Wow ! how i miss flying in the snow! i had the older ones that were white & red and it flew on rails but that yellow really stands out ... had to keep my batteries warm with hand warmers at the field so they'd hold a full charge. Fly something with floats so you can land on the snow.
It is beautiful to see, but not so appealing as it's cold and makes dexterity a bit worse ;(
Float or Ski fights may happen. I don't want to promise what I don't have firm plans for, and then disappoint.
I used reinforcing tape for the horizontal stab; stronger and easier and it will not show in the air. I too prefer screws for the t took off the cowl to install the front gear as the angle of the screw driver thru the cowl was off. This made it easy to ensure the flat spot was located properly. Now listening to NX6 set up.
Nice!
Hi Brian that plane looks GREAT in the snow sir. GREAT VIDEO LOADS of GREAT Information to HELP us. THANKYOU camera Crew for just PERFECT FILMING 🇬🇧🛫🛩️🚁✈️🛬♥️ BRIAN PHILLIPS RC👌🇬🇧👍😁
Glad you enjoyed it, and I'll pass along the thanks to the camera crew ;)
Awesome video as always Brian! She just kisses the ground perfect everytime. Looks like a really nice little flyer with a sweet paint job. May have to get this for my son as his second plane. I can barely keep up on your content turning a new video out everyday the last couple weeks!! Nice job, love the quality and time you put into each video never cutting anything short🤙 Happy Flying boss🔥🔥🛩🛩🛩
Thanks Jake! We're glad you're enjoying the footage!!! This would be a GREAT plane for a new pilot. She is very well behaved and wonderful to fly!
Now that is a beautiful plane! Great video and amazing plane I'm sold on it
It really is! I hope you'll get one ordered ;)
Great video, big help. Thank you 🙏 🦅
You make these planes look so fun. I’m a drone person but I wanna get into planes. Super fun looking and your vids made me decide to purchase my first plane
You can do it!
I just realize your audio has been improved it looks like you’ve got the kinks out. Coming through loud and clear.
The Lapel Mics have been a huge pain to use, but the audio quality is way better. When we do the very occasional video without, it's a BIG difference.
I want to get another type of mic at some point that would help in those situations, but not sure what they're called.
Great explanation of As3x and Safe Select.
Thanks Buck!
Wow, very nice. Thank you guys. Come on Motion RC
Thanks, and Yes ;)
exzellent flying.... and a beautiful plane too !!!
Indeed it is! You need to get one too ;)
great video. you are an amazing pilot. I have put together two planes by watching your videos. going to purchase this one through your channel. stay safe.
Glad I could help! Thanks Phillip!
A1 flying and A1 camera work - even with the FedEx distraction...
LOL - Thanks!!! It was unexpected, and we felt bad kinda ignoring the guy, but he figured it out ;)
great plane, super flying! nice camera work
Thanks Musky Bob!
Can't wait to see this thing fly in a small space. With retracts and such, the 1.2m didn't really feel like a park flyer. As you mentioned in the view, this does look the part of a park flyer. At 1.1m it's similar in size to the AeroScout. Too bad you haven't flown that yet!
The Forward Programming makes so much possible. As soon as I get it, I'm going to run through the settings and record them so I can unlock that 631 and reprogram Flaperons using the original setting. I know I don't need Flaperons, but they'll be fun as all get out when I speed through on 4S. Plus, it'll some drag to land at my short runway as that thing looks like it wants to lift. Might even help it settle better with speed and avoid that nose wheel bounce.
I think this plane would LOVE some flaps ;) Retracts would be sweet if you could use a single servo to run them all....simple and light, but might be a bit of an "ask"...
As for flapperons, if you fly this plane with pretty good amount of dihedral and outboard flapperons, I bet it would be really hokey....BUT if you use spoilerons, She's loose lift and fly good with deployment.
I align the horizontal stab/elevator by measuring from a fixed point on the horz stab to the tip of the corresponding wing tip - horizontal stab end to wingtip.. Adjust the horizontal stab until both the diagonal measurements are equal on left & right and you know you have it square with the wings - and then tape it down.
How do you keep them in position?
@@BrianPhillipsRC I just have a piece of tape stuck to my hand ready to go. When the stab is aligned, just don't breath on it and slap down the piece of tape to lock it down. Check the measurements again and if still good put on the rest of the tape. Once the tape is all on I've never had any trouble with the stab shifting/moving.
That's just how I do it. I learned it from the old GWS park flyer kits.... ParkZone uses the same method on their Radian powered sailplane as well if I recall correctly.
P.S. - just got the T-28 myself, but haven't had a chance to maiden it yet.
Sweet plane Brian and its really nippy too 😯
It sure is!
I have the substantially larger FMS 1.4 T-28D V4. Although it flies gloriously, frankly, I wish I'd bought something more like this, as the retracts on my FMS model have been less than forgiving of the rather imperfect landings that mark a relative newbie like myself. Frankly, it's just about sworn me off of planes with retracts altogether.
This appears to be a great flyer, as are all T-28's apparently. May just have to pick one up at some point.
As always, thanks much for sharing.
Steve
If you want simplicity, and reliability, this bird it for you! She flies so good, but I honestly can't say I've flown a T-28 that flies bad. This one is the BEST flying T-28 I have.
That p28 was made by park zone I bought it six or seven years ago it had a 72 megahertz radio in it then good flying plane it's really a good beginner plane for somebody wants to fly a low-wing warbird
I thought they had done it with DSM2 since then, but I had the 1.2m, so shouldn't say...I didn't have the 1.1m.
This plane flies VERY GOOD!
Darn it, this is the best review/ unboxing/ build on this plane. A hangar mate for my Parkzone F4F Wildcat with Safe? Maybe.
It is a great plane too! So solid in flight performance, and she'll let you do anything you want to her ;)
I have heard you use the term/phrase " tractor the propeller" and have never heard that used before. I assumed you meant " windmill the propeller" Windmilling the prop causes the prop to provide drag and thus slow the aircraft. For the heck of it I searched on tractoring propeller. Turns out the term tractor is used in regard to propellers. A tractor propeller is a propeller mounted on the front of the aircraft and ' pulls' the aircraft through the air. The other choice would be a rear mounted propeller which is a pusher prop and pushes the aircraft through the air. I don't remember ever knowing about the tractor prop in 50 years of flying. Although I am old and have forgotten lots of things. Learn something new all the time. Regarding this video you are making it tough for me. Just when I think I have picked out my next plane another great one like this pops up and gets me thinking. The videos continue to be fantastic and I enjoy watching them. My compliments to you and the Camera Crew.
I heard the terminology from a guy we make fun of on the channel from time to time ("pesky elevators" - he's the guy who says you don't need an elevator on a properly built sailplane). He was extremely smart, and EXTREME into the hobby, to the point of militant... He was absolutely no poser...he KNEW what he was talking about. I heard the term "tractoring" the prop from him. I too understand the "pusher" prop VS "tractor" prop in relation to the placement on the fuse, but this "windmill" terminology I hadn't heard until you mentioned it ;)
You have a few more years of experience than I, but I'm ALWAYS learning new and interesting terminology. Sometimes I fear I'll use the wrong terminology and embarrass myself - Oh well - too late ;) LOL
Did numerous flights with my UMX Timber Turbo and the Timber X and decided to maiden my maiden with my T-28 yesterday on a 3S. No wind no clouds in the sky but a BLINDING low in the sky directly in my face, I had fit over sunglasses on. Tried to fly past the sun with the T-T28 to make a loop around the field and instantly got completely blinded with my old eyes and saw big blue lines where I was looking directly at the sun. Could not see the plane at all with it's smaller wingspan and yellow color scheme against the sun. I thought I was flying straight past it and could see it on the other side once I regained my vision but nope, straight down and I didn't even see that. Asked my buddy and he said I had inverted the plane and when I pulled back on the stick to climb I went straight down. I was fortunate that the soft grass padded the crash completely, zero damage to wings and fuselage, not even a dent, but the prop cracked and the plastic nose cowl cracked. Motor mount, landing gear, prop shaft all good. I have another prop and could glue and tape the cowl but I just ordered an new one so I could re-maiden it. Learned a valuable lesson with that sun though, I won't be flying with it direct in my eyes and will wait till it's higher up when it's that bright! Had a perfect day other than that little mishap which was kind of a bummer, I was like really... brand new plane Rob... *ugg*. I will say it was way to slow on 3S and felt super floaty in the air, plus with the battery all the way forward sill had to trim it to keep it from climbing...
Gotta fly like the Pirates - Close one eye as you pass the sun...SERIOUSLY...that's a good tip I've shared on this channel a number of times, and I too fly with the sun in my eyes, but will TRY to put my back to the sun when possible.
Glad you got off easy ;) Prop is no biggie, compared to what could have been - Keep at it. You'll be an expert in no time Rob!
@@BrianPhillipsRC Great advice on closing one eye, that makes sense, I also did some research and ordered non polarized grey fit over sunglasses to see if that makes a difference. Lesson learned wait till the sun is overhead or behind my back and try not to fly yellow planes directly in front of the sun! LOL
Just got this plane yesterday. Flies Beautifully! I do need to practice landing though!
You can do it! Awesome plane, and you'll learn to fly and land if you keep at it!
@@BrianPhillipsRC I will keep at it. I typically am a hand launcher, so landing gear are new to me. My trouble is trying to land on sandy dirt. Always ends up on the tail!! I will keep working at it though!
Darn!! I just ordered the Conscendo Evo 1.5m wednesday morning! Wished I'd known this was coming!
so just give it a hanger-mate!😉👍 see that I'm a problem solver 😂
this is a different breed, add it to your hangar
Conscendo Evo is NOT a bad choice!!! You will LOVE it. TOTALLY different flight experiences, and both very good. Plus, this is still "pre-order" ;(
hi Brian great video love the plane its so cool
Glad you like it
Hey Brian and “camera crew”, hope you guys are doing good. Really like the look of this plane, am fairly new to the hobby and currently have a couple of 3 channel planes (mini trainstar and a night radian) and am looking to move on to a something like this. Would love to see you guys do a second thoughts with this one with some grass take offs and landings (maybe be difficult in the winter!!!) as that’s how I’d largely be using if I buy one. Anyways, great content on the channel and all the best.
We have a second thoughts video, but it was still snowy. The plane will do just fine on short grass, but you might want to hand launch it, but that's no difficult feat.
It's a re-pop & slightly updated Parkzone T-28. Great 1st plane.
Totally! GREAT 1st or 100th plane ;)
Thank you and your wife so much for showing, reviewing and recommending this plane. After weeks of research, this is going straight up to the top of my list. Think it is perfect as a 2nd and the next step after my Timber Turbo 1.5m. Only one question left, think I could fit the 3200mAh 3S and 4S Smart-packs somehow?
Should fit, if not carving will be no biggie.
Awesome, thanks a lot 😃
Great stuff...love the snow. High quality work. Thank you. Have you looked at the new transmitter ? Can you look at some sailplanes ? Thank you H
Are you talking about "looking at eh NX6?" - yes, I have.
Sailplanes....I just did a few the other day ;)

You are the best you helped a friend in need I would have been lost if it wasn’t for you and your lovely wife I would have never got back in to flying again but my boys love to fly with me and the eflite rc planes are one of the best planes menu thanks and keep up the sexy builds it is funny as hell
Thanks Chris! Glad we could help you out!
Fantastic video! Watched the full 1hr 10min looking forwrd to our one arriving soon 🍻
NICE!!! Glad to hear! I bet you were warmer than we were - LOL ;)
This helped a lot Thanks
Best rc plane video’s on da tube
Thanks J dawg G!!!
Great video !
Liked & subscribed !
Thanks
Back to work now setting in truck waiting on helicopter lift for a pump to be set, our video watching time has a limit today. Good job back to the grind.
What?!??! You're gonna have to explain this now!!! You're using a helicopter to lift a pump!?!?!?!!??!
@@BrianPhillipsRC This is a grate big giant Industrial landfill that is full of fly ash from coal burning power plant, there are to big pumps that go to a leachate pond, their position makes it hard to get a crane too. So they use a helicopter 30 minutes they have both pumps in place and ready to be installed, they also use the helicopters to cut brush back on the main high power lines,If you have never seen it done it is pretty wild the helicopter picks up a cable with a half dozen rotating blades and runs it down the edge of the power line. You can probably find a video on you tube some where of them doing this. It is hard to explain what I do for a living, but I am a consultant for AECOM. we build and maintain anything , we do a lot of work for the military. I think I have one of the best jobs in the world. I get to see and do many things. I am getting old and not allowed to do some of the wilder stuff I use to but know I teach or direct others how to do these things.
@@BrianPhillipsRC The work some of these guys do from helicopter s takes balls of steel , if you have never seen a man charge himself with over 500k in electrical power and work on a high power line 200 foot off the ground,it’s wild there are videos on you tube. The land here is very rugged in WV .
Hi again Brian, the microphone you may be looking at could be the Sennheiser HSP or Rode HS2PL.......Now this could be the entry ticket for a video tour of your hangar but try & keep it under 5 hrs.
LOL - I already have the video done, and we're just waiting to publish, since we have a bunch of new content coming in the next few days ;)
Excellent! Nice yellow color scheme:)
You are becoming quite the celebrity on our channel. You've been mentioned a few times, ALL POSITIVE and nothing at all embarrassing!!!
@@BrianPhillipsRC 😂
Sir u made me want to buy this as well. Looks really nice. Last month i bought fms ranger 1.8m but do not get the chance to fly yet due to lockdown at my place, kuala lumpur malaysia
Sorry to hear that!
Nice reality intro with FedEx, nice plane flies great looks scale nice clean sound
Glad you enjoyed it - I was super bummed that we had to give the cold shoulder to the guy, I would have chummed it up with him, but since he was going to drive up the runway, I didn't have a great alternative. We've had this happen a couple times, but usually not while filming - LOL.
@@BrianPhillipsRC I hear ya on that, we actually have a DHL driver that is in the hobby and will take a minute to rip an rc crawler if we're outside when he arrives we much appreciate the shipping industry as I'm a retired truck driver gotta love rc...
Great flight Brian,your wife is great with the camera is there no zoom on it as keeping an eye on it far away takes some of the enjoyment out of all the video's your lovely wife does,also I love your house and your land you have with the location your in its the envy of many rc pilots,I'm in the UK and like many of us pilots love to have a runway at our front door, excellent job on all your bids,happy new year to you and your family,good luck for future video's and stay safe
Thanks Terry! We do have zoom on the Samsung Galaxy S9, but it's all digital, NO OPTICAL (lens) zoom ;( At some point, we want to try a DSLR, but to date, we've found the smart phone cameras to be VERY good!
Thanks again for being with us Terry!
Hey Brian, I just picked this plane up on the Cyber week sale. I can't thank you enough for all the hard work you and your wife do for the hobby. Your video's are always fun, entertaining and informative that I can't wait for my next BrianPhillipsRC. What gloves are you wearing in your video ? The gloves look comfortable for use with a radio. Keep those Awesome videos coming. Just can't get enough ! :}
Thanks Johnny! So glad you're out there watching our videos too!
This plane is sure to bring you a ton of joy, and so glad you got it on sale ;)
As for the gloves, they're Nitril Gloves - amzn.to/3G63AAY
Ho hum I thought…wrong! Bought too at that price, and in one word, value! Was going to pass on it but came to my senses. Love putzing around scale but thought let’s stick a 4s/100c in it and,holy crap! Hooked on roaring around doing aerobatics now. Imagine this little gem scaled up to 2 some meters…
A team, Brian and wife,aka camera crew, 🙏
I just loved my Parkzone T28, I think I may need to order this one. Now it’s time to do a Flap mod. I’m thinking that’s you next MOD, you haven’t done one in a while. WOW a hour and ten minute build video! I have well over 2 hours to kill.
Flaps would be a long video, but this plane is worthy ;)
@@BrianPhillipsRC when you state a long video, now that could a long one. Your normal build videos are 3 plus hours. But knowing me I'd watch ever minute of it. LOL
my place is a super clutter mess and i'm broke, thank you Brian and camera crew.
You're welcome!
Very good explanation. I amnew I learned a lot from your vidro
Glad you did! We try to explain things to help people into the hobby, get up to speed. There's SOOO much to learn and so much of it, the RC Manufacturers just assume we all know...but many don't! We hope you'll come back and keep watching so you can keep learning along with us! Welcome Elio!
Hey Brian Happy New Year to you all in the US of A - You have a fair bit of snow to contend with there--in the UK we had a light dusting that melted away today 8th Jan
Well, we had some snow a few weeks ago that came and went, but this last batch has been here for now a few weeks. It's pretty, and has made for some really cool foggy mornings. Very cool to drive up and over, then under the rolling fog! It was like I was flying through the clouds!!!
Did you change you picture???
You need to fly the twin otter on floats off the snow as a second thoughts vid!👍
It would be great to see the twin otter fly on that virgin snow!
That would be cool!
@@BrianPhillipsRC or the EC1500 on skis! ; )
I want to advise not to use floats on hard pack only fresh powder
@@BrianPhillipsRCawesome plane Brian. Quick question. Just did my maiden but issue was plane has too much up elevator? Mine was just going up and up. Lol. Was able to land safely. My 3s 2200 was exactly how the book says but not sure if i have to manually adjust the clevis down a bit? Any suggestion ?
Nice to see you assemble a plane that doesn't require pain killers. 😂 I ordered one from your link. Really a shame it doesn't come with flaps. (Your favorite thing to add....on the next video?)
Thank you Jack! You'll LOVE it! BUT you won't many any premium on your Tylenol stock - LOL!!!
I tried to get a hawker hurricane but could not so as I speak I'm getting this plane. I heard that the t38 is awesome first war bird.
Very interesting!
I got to cut out early, I will catch up this looks Good
No problemo! We appreciate you stopping in Charles!
Brian, you can’t put a longer battery in the cab. The canopy goes next to the 3 or4 s 2200. You can’t get the canopy on with a longer battery.
You can if you carve some foam, but I'm not recommending you do it either... I got TONS of flight time on the 2200mAh 4S - why do anything else ;)
I bought it as my second plane. I figured I would get it now cause horizon had em on sale for $160. So I have it when I am good on the Apprentice S2 1.2 I have my next plane ready to go ! Thank you again Brian and camera crew good job you guys.
You’ll love it. Just jam that battery all the way to the front. It is prone to prop strikes and just riding in ground effect forever. A lot of the guys at my club have put a slightly larger dubro wheel on the front to help with cg and against prop strikes. For your first few flights give yourself a lot of runway. Go ahead and order a few props. My gf ordered mine as a b-day present (I helped pick it out) during the same sale. I flew it last weekend in 8mph wind w/ gusts. It flew like a dream. I crabbed in and greased the first landing. Second one I tillered a bit of runway. It’s a great plane. Just expect a propeller budget.
@@kragf1802 Thank you very much !
AWESOME! Glad you had such a good experience Jeff! Great plane! Great fun!!!
@@BrianPhillipsRC love your channel. You are making a difference in our hobby. Great information. It would be awesome if you made a video that explains jargon and components to a viewer that knows absolutely nothing about the hobby.
I am a very experienced pilot and you are very good at instructing how to dos for beginners, great job but I would take the prop off in the house with a battery hooked up in the house, I have took 3 experienced pilots in my club to the ER I know your throttle lock is on- I fly Spectrum also but ESC can malfunction again this is my opinion I help guys all the time here in AZ I always tell them to take the prop off on set ups in the house ,at our field you have to take the prop off for any work in the pitts with a live electric aircraft we arm them in a plane stand on the flight line please dont take this the wrong way your helping alot of new modelers as well as old ones too LOL
I appreciate your opinion, and definitely don't want to end up in the ER, except that Esteban works at the hospital ;)
That being said, everyone has a different tolerance for risk, and I guess I'll be accepting the risk of an ESC malfunction.
Brian. I am hooked on your channel now. It has helped me a lot as a beginner. This plane, based on your review, will be my next plane as well as the Valiant (also based on your review). Question, if I purchase from your links can I still use my horizon account for the points. I want to help out your channel as much as possible.
Awesome, and thanks! Yes when you follow our links, you just log in once you're there and use your account. Thanks for asking, and very glad you're getting some great planes!
Dang, cool plane, I got the turbo timber 1.5 meter as a second plane after my sport cub s2 plane for christmas because I saw your video and saw how controllable and good it was, I also finally got my nx6 in the mail yesterday, and bound them up and flew it on a 4s 2200, smart pack, because I also saw how much you liked them, and I maidened it yesterday and it was insanely awesome. Thanks for the great videos that you make.
So glad you got the NX6 and a SMART pack! Those packs are GAME CHANGERS!!!
THIS GUY KNOWS HOW TO FLY
Thank you fred!
I was floored by the slow fly moments on the 4s! I was like that is almost slow stick slow! Wowzers. Does it slow down even more with the 3s due to the lighter weight?
I wouldn't say it can fly a lot slower on 3S, but the top speed is a bit slower.
“Aww come on man “ it fly good 😃✌️
totally
Love the yellow T-28 awesome. Great flying as always.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks Robert!
Ordered one, went for PNP as i dont use spectrum
Enjoy! Gotta throw some flaps on there while you're at it ;)
I definitely forgot to remove the little prop protectors when I tested the motor and prop. They actually self remove at about 30% throttle. lol... Awesome plane, Flies well for a rookie like me. got 4 packs on it this weekend and it still looks new! woohoo!!!!
LOL - very nice! I hope they didn't self insert into your drywall - LOL ;)
So glad you got this one Dave! She's wonderful for sure!!!
I have the old parkzone version of this plane and it flys amazing! Reccomend this plane to everyone!
It is GREAT!
another great job
Thanks Richard!
Great video Brian and review have they changed to a different AS3X as the one i have does not have that button on to bind the reciver.
The Receiver is different than previously used.
AS3X is the stabilizer system that's used int the Receiver. It runs on the software inside the Receiver. Not sure if the AS3X is really any different, but the interface is much improved and shows forward programming data...which is really cool. I'll show more about that in Second Thoughts for this plane.
