    Hey Brian, thanks for the straight up honest review of the Arrows P-51. One thought to mention, is that all of your efforts of working through this model are what model planes is about. We have been spoiled with great innovations over the years with the progress of technology. True modeling used to take time and refinement of each model to get it to a state of fly ability. Modeling is a craft. Thank you for sharing your insights and experience with us all. A bit of history. I started on control line with my father and uncle. Thanks.

    • @BrianPhillipsRC
      @BrianPhillipsRC  2 роки тому

      You're 100% right, and we are totally spoiled these days, which makes my life easier, but also makes a plane that's rock solid, but requires even the smallest amount of work, to SEEM, in comparison to be no-good....I choose to reject this notion. This plane is great, but does require a bit of effort to work through the battery choice and CG. Hope this message wasn't misunderstood.
      Thanks for being here with us Jeff!

    Brian it's real easy to open the battery pocket to except a 4s. Old butter knife , bend it and heat it up with a propane torch. I used a thin piece of sheet metal and plyers to hold it. Melted a little at a time until perfect. Added a nice layer of white duck tape so it's slick . Easy to install and remove battery. I fly mine old school. No AS3X or safe. I even pulled the tail servo and fabricated a longer servo arm. Hogged out a lot of foam to give myself lots of tail and rudder travel. I also installed metal gear aileron servos. Awesome Flying but still takes good reflexes to land on a short runway.

    i used a 12" metal ruler heated on the stove to slightly expand to opening. the roof of the cavity is thin so be careful up there. the battery cavity floor is thicker and will tolerate more. i believe that melting is better than removal. be conservative with the heat till you figure out how hot. a slow melt at a lower temp is safer than an impatiently fast melt with a hotter ruler

    Brian, excellent work by you and the camera crew, as usual. Just to keep every new viewer from asking, maybe it should say somewhere in your video description: " YES, the Eflite June Nite P-51 is easier to fly than the Arrows Mustang." Personally, I was interested in the Arrows for its size and transportation advantage over my June Nite, but I'll take the better flying plane any day, even if it means having to call a UPS truck to drive me to the flying field...

    • @BrianPhillipsRC
      @BrianPhillipsRC  2 роки тому

      I don't want to take anything away from the Arrows P-51 1.1m - it has many strengths, but it is harder to fly and harder to setup than the 1.2m from Eflite. That being said, it's not bad flying, it just takes more tweaking to get it up to snuff with it's bigger sister from another mother ;)

    Hi Brian,
    I wanted to add a tip on the Arrows P-51. I measured the Spektrum 3S 2200 Smart battery and found a Spektrum G2 4S 1800 Smart battery with the exact same dimensions, but slightly heavier. It works great! It is also 50C, so it is really snappy on this battery! I set my timer to 6 minutes and start setting up a landing at 5 minutes. For me, 6 minutes works well! 👍

    I know this is an old video but I got here because of your HH 1m Mustang video and the lack of flaps and retracts on that plane.
    Could you set up the AR630 with heading hold for takeoff? Maybe set it to the bind button so it's intuitive to remember to turn off after takeoff? If I remember right that Rx is capable of heading hold, right?
    I really enjoy your content and you're in the Horizon Hobby catalog I just got in the mail... Bravo sir!

      @user-cc3cq7xi6p 13 днів тому

      Not sure about your question.
      Definitely use a self leveling gyro, like safe to assist in takeoffs until you get used to it.
      The main thing with the arrows is to do a slow rollout, steer with your rudder, and hold a little up elevator (like 3mm to 5mm travel) for the entire roll out.
      Also, one of the biggest mistakes Brian is doing, is 100% throttle on takeoffs.
      You only need about 50-60% throttle to lift off .
      In short:
      hold a little up elevator.
      throttle up a bit slow and steady to about 60% throttle, finish throttling up to about 75 - 90% after mains have lifted.
      Steer with rudder during rollout.
      And DO NOT use flaps on takeoffs !!!!!!!!
      I just finished my 100th flight on this.

  • @adamone4890
    @adamone4890 4 місяці тому +1

    In order to prevent the motor torque from taking the plane's off course during take-off, one should throttle up *slowly* while using the rudder to keep the plane's moving straight on the runway.
    Further, one may add 2 to 3 degrees right thrust angle (viewed as sitting in the cockpit).
    The initial pitch instability was probably due to the plane's being tail heavy. So the bigger and heavier 4S battery improved the balance by moving the CG forward.

Just got the hang of my Dynam Bf109 1.20m so you could say Im familiar with P-factor, but it seems like this one has a stronger tendency. I dont remember having to use that much rudder to overcome it. Just the same I think I will get this one cause its so "purrty"😊

    Brian, I got myself one of these after watching the latest Top Gun movie. The P-51 shown is so gorgeous, I couldn’t resist.
    Now, after breaking it in half twice on grass field takeoffs, I’ve opted to watch your experience only to find out that I should’ve watched these before! 😂.
    The plane sucks to takeoff on grass fields. It doesn’t give time to correct and although between all those flights I had luck with some takeoffs, they sure weren’t pretty.
    I’ve opened up the foam to fit a 3200 4S in there, but the one thing I see nobody talking about is the ESC and motor handling that much more voltage.
    Using a wattmeter, I measured 50 amps at peak RPM. The ESC on this plane is rated for 40. What are your thoughts?

    Hey Brian. If you took off with the receiver in SAFE mode, wouldnt that prevent the P factor from being a problem?

    • @BrianPhillipsRC
      @BrianPhillipsRC  2 роки тому

      Not enough control input to offset....there's the moment when airspeed makes controls go "Alive" while the SAFE and AS3X will help, they won't totally compensate for the immense P-Factor, especially if you don't have enough rudder.

    I just got one of these delivered a day ago. I was looking through the manual and it has a little section important esc information. Says the stock esc has braking. But says the brake is off and they recommend the brake be off when flying? I don’t understand. Do they mean thrust reverse?

    • @BrianPhillipsRC
      @BrianPhillipsRC  4 місяці тому +1

      Breaking is not Thrust Reverse. Two different functions.
      Breaking stops the motor actively. This can be used to prepare for Thrust Reverse, which is why we have to indicate "reverse" on "Breaking" in Avian ESC setup, but then later, we also have access to "Breaking" which is where you setup the On or Off setting, and or setup the amplitude of breaking.

      i have all that you mention. e flite 1.2 is easier to fly with a fatter airfoil but arrows is much faster on 4s and a 2 blade 10x10. i find it to be a more advanced pilot plane with quicker response and roll rate. i absolutely love the Dage Red. it is smokin fast and easy to land but the tires are rock hard . the fms landing gear strut is weak. the retract motors are small, weak, lame, prone to premature failure. both my Dago and my Voo Doo retracts have intermittent failure and the struts bend too easy but im in love with how they fly and land. they are very light wing loading.

    @shortbiggie 2 роки тому +1

    This plane regardless of a heavier battery will probably stall on take off if on a grass strip. So much up elevator will be needed to avoid nose over that takeoff will be at too low an airspeed and unless you are quick to kick opposite rudder instead of an instinctive right aieleron, the left wing is going to eat grass. This is typical of the Arrows warbirds line up. Don't even attempt grass.

    Its the P-51 platform that just flies poorly.
    Severe P factor makes impossible to flat turn right & gives severe throttle yaw coupling. Non streamline stubby body & wings make it touchy & unpredictable. Politely called MAUVERABLE ..I guess since WW2 P51 pilots themself didn't know which way it was going, how Germans figure & that made it a success.
    I prefer Spitfire everyday over P-51, though it has its own idiosyncrasies. It not being a US plane, unfortunately never get any small Spitfires, let alone 2s brushless.
