Now that I have mine (currently the “A” model with “TF-30 engines” at 1650kv) planning to upgrade to the “B” model with 2150kv upgrade EDFs with 100a ESCs. Definitely need the power for the 14lb jet.
@@KB_RC yeah 10 or more channels would be the best bet I couldn’t program as3x or safe because I ran out of channels , and I am using the nx10 I needed two more channels this is my set up right now .. 1-throttle 2-tailerons 3-elevator 4-rudder 5-gear 6-flaps 7-wing sweep 8- Y-harness connected to wing ailerons with a mix to deactivate wing ailerons when wings are swept 9-brakes if you are using 10- after burner light
@@andystoybox1723 Ahh ok nice! Yeah NX8 wouldn’t work 😆… I was literally looking at IX14’s right when you wrote back to me 🤣… Nahhh he’s not spending nearly that much on me for Christmas… I always have to help pay for like half the airplane when I get one for Christmas. I’m getting a pair of BOSE headsets that I’m gonna be using for real flying! So that’s the extra gift I’m getting. IX14 will be the next controller I get…. But probably not for a while. So I’ll be buying a plane that only needs 8 channels or less for Christmas possibly as a present to myself 😉… I’m also buying slime lights for the F-22!
Thanks cowboy 🤠 it was amazing !! Such a great feeling when I brought her home .. When I was starting in the rc airplane world I saw a video of the f-14 and I said hopefully one day I would be able to fly one ☺️😉😎 now I am a top gun pilot 😆😆… it flew awesome, no as3x no gyro and it was solid !
Congrats on your Maiden flight bro 👍. Looked awesome! Those breaks are sick! Question, im from So. Cal. (Berdo/Highland) but moved in 94, but can't place where this field is at. I see the San Bernardino mountains in the background but can't place the surrounding area. Where's this at?
WHooaaaa , wait you bought a tomcat>!>! good for you. wow, impressive, but 2 batteries,!!! thats some serious $$$ if you want to fly a few times unless there is charging at the field.. why did you need the nosegear gyro? I needed to put a nosegear gyro in my rapter because for some reason only when i landed it would veer off to one side,
She flies amazing ! I can’t believe how good she flys I was nervous because of how heavy she is about 15 pounds with the batteries.. I added brakes and it was recommended to me by my buddy that I also get the anti slip steering gyro it helps equalize the braking so it brakes evenly, and it keeps you plane strait on take off .. I was really impressed on how good it worked … only down fall is you get a slower turning reaction when you need to turn quick
@@andystoybox1723 yes, I already noticed that part but, for example, I found on RC castle a package which comes with the wheels and brake/steering gyro all together and I’m not sure if you had a different set of wheels or that set is exactly what you bought, if you can send me that part number it will be great
@@rruades99 they fit good on stock retracts, no mods needed.. only thing you need to do is make a small hole to route wires , and then add some small tie wraps on the the gear to hold wire 👍🏻
I have not really gotten into the esc’s with thrust reverse🤔 but it sounds like it could be an option 🤔.. The brakes do add some weight to the plane .. you might have something there 👍🏻👍🏻
@@andystoybox1723 for next plane buy ZTW esc It’s less expensive than other brand and working perfectly Keep your mind with thrust reverse you can have strong brake and backwards as well also no extra weight to plane but with brake you won’t have those and need pay extra money

It seems absolutely ridiculous to hear the narrator talk about how more substantial landing gear bracing or something adds $100 to the cost of a model airplane that undoubtedly cost $40,000. I don't know what they cost but I do know that they cost a hell of a lot more than it $100 and only a freaking moron would bulk and another $100 expenditure after spending that much already
You the type of guy that has highway to the danger zone in your head and sipping on a monster as you take off. You my people.
Hahaha ! Lol 😂 yup lots of fun 😂
Wow.! Is that a plug and play product? If that's your first flight, then it's an amazing landing . Wow again !
Thank you ! This one is an arf plus but they do have a pnp version..
Sweet flight man sweet
I love your enthusiasm !!
Thank you ! I’m just out there having fun 🤩😊😊 flying brings great joy to me ..
Damn cowboy she flys amazing . Love how scale it looks 🗣️💯
Cowboy 🤠 she is a sweet Heart !! I can’t believe how good she flew and landed she hardly needed any trim ..
Thanks for the build info 👍
No problem! Have fun 😊 Happy flying !
Oh snap your back.... There she goes!!! Dope homie
Thanks !! 😊

Great content !
Thank you !
Andy great mods and setup. Fantastic maiden flights, you’ve come a long way since the using the ladder to go flying. Zoom zoom zoom Jeff in LA USA
Thank you Jeff !! Yes !!! I can’t believe I’m at this level of flying! It is amazing !! Thanks for watching
Well done mate
Thank you 😊👍🏻
I'm nervous as hell just watching you LOL.
Lol ! 😆😆 it flys awesome!
That’s badass!!!
Thanks !!
Heck yeah man!!! I need to this one next!
Oh yeah !! You will love it !! It’s huge ! And flys so well ! Zane has one too ! Hope to see you fly one soon..
@@andystoybox1723 Yes! But how many channels do I need to fly it properly? Zane said an NX8 isn’t enough
@@KB_RC yeah 10 or more channels would be the best bet I couldn’t program as3x or safe because I ran out of channels , and I am using the nx10 I needed two more channels this is my set up right now ..
1-throttle
2-tailerons
3-elevator
4-rudder
5-gear
6-flaps
7-wing sweep
8- Y-harness connected to wing ailerons with a mix to deactivate wing ailerons when wings are swept
9-brakes if you are using

Thank you 😊 this place is called Whitter narrows south El Monte ca .. right off the 60 freeway
Nice dude! Judging from the landing you could come in a little slower, do this and you will have a less chance of porpoising down the runway!!
Thanks man !! Thanks for the tip 👍🏻👍🏻 it flys awesome! I will work on that , I think this one tops all of my maidens .. My heart was pounding 😆😆😆
@@andystoybox1723 Oh yeah same... especially when I knew something was wrong... had my elevons fighting my ailerons and it would trim the wrong way!!

May I know why you didn’t buy esc with thrust reverse instead wheel brakes?

@@shahram677 nice 👍🏻 I will check it out 👍🏻
Is that’s 12s plane? Why 2 6s batteries?
No it is 6s .. it has twin motors , So one battery per motor
In what state you live in?
California .. Torrance
Nice jet but the annoying blinking afterburners ruined it. Might as well not install it at all.
Lol why would you add the weight of brakes and a ag63 on an electric😂 edf it's not needed

Kind of a big difference between $40,000 and $600 bud
