It would be good to see how this Beaver would fly on 4s maybe a 4s motor is needed.
It looks like a great plane to try a 4s
For your rescue boat - I strongly recommend the Horizon Hobby tugboat. Will not find a better recovery boat than that - comes with a special part to recover stranded RCs. Would not mind seeing a review of that sucker on this channel! Love your content, keep up the great work.
Taking a fishing pole with you while crashing into the water would not be a bad idea. Good video peeps.
Definitely need to bring a better recovery boat, 😁 Lucky those nice folks came to the rescue.
I'm thinking that the rubber bands are letting the rudders to move. I would think that a solid linkage would work right. Test it out. Happy turkey day. Beautiful trees.
I have two of these (the identical version bought several years ago from Flyzone), one on floats and one on wheels or skis. They are both great models and fly well.
Comments:
1. You need to tuck the battery wires into the cockpit space or the hatch won't close. The latch can wear out if you force it.
2. The wheel struts are soft and prone to bending, so check them after a rough landing
3. The water rudder linkages are tricky and tend to deflect the whole pontoon instead of moving the rudders. I left the rudders off.
4. Further to 3, I have been advised that the rudders are oversized and should be cut down.
All extremely solid feedback! Thank you very much for your comment, and for watching! 👍💯😎⚓️
Two crashed beavers? :D One exploded, one got wet... Maybe it's a sign.... that you're too hard on the beaver... :D lol
Kinda looks like the pontoons aren't true to each other. That could cause the erratic tracking😊
Thats what I was thinking too. It looks like it points in on the front.
The linkage was a bit “dated” I suppose. Did my absolute best to assemble this airplane to be as rigid as possible with what I was given.
When you said I brought a recovery boat and I saw that little RC boat going out I laughed so hard !!
Great job, Happy Thanksgiving!
Glad someone brought the beaver back. Looks just like the older flyzone beaver. Still fly mine off the water. Had it about 8 years and still flying strong! Love to watch your videos, keep up the great work brother!
That's exactly what it is. Just a Flyzone Beaver with modern electronics. Not a bad thing as this is a great model.
This was all too real. Perfect timing. Glad all turned out well.
Congratullations! You are the first person I have seen that has managed to group-loop their plane on the water! LOL! Rather than delete the rudders, I would replace the fishingline with solid control rods. Otherwise, it looks like a nice value plane.
I've been flying the earlier release of this Beaver for years. It's really a great flying plane and very fun off water. But....the water rudders as furnished are horrible. I added extra rubber bands on either side of the rudder horn to make them stiffer and allow them to stay centered. Doing that really helped improve water taxi. You can do touch and goes just make sure you stay into the wind and don't get wild on that rudder. If you get too slow on the water you'll lose directional control and it's easier to flip over. Just touch, skim a bit then smoothly add power and climb.
A 2200 3s battery gives a solid 6 mins flying off water.
as a side note you probably found some extra fishing line and wonder where that goes....the instructions aren't clear but the line goes from the floats to the wing strut mount and adds extra bracing. Took me a while to figure that out but it works to add some extra bracing for the floats. Let me know and I can send you pics of you want.
Thats fun to watch a surface prop boat be a tug. Good times.
Happy gobble day 🦃
WHAT, no self- righting?! Lol!! I've been waiting for the video!! Was not expecting the RC boat rescue attempt, but isn't it AWESOME when people are just NICE!! Thanks Saylors for the informative and FUN video!! 💟👍😘
Use some fishing line to tie a hook and float on there. Then you can just drive by the plane, snag it and tow it back to shore.
AMA-- whaatajoke!
Nate-- if you damage "something," the AMA goes to YALLS home-owner's insurance policy to make restitution for any damages! AMA pays for NOTHING.
Hey Nate and Abby! Keep doing what you're doing! Love your real, honest videos. Always entertaining and a wealth of knowledge!
When I had boats I always had a recovery boat with a drag line attached so I could pull it in. Just use a kitchen wisk and cut than bend the metal wisk backwards to create hooks. Try it…. It works really good
Not what I imagined when you said you had a recovery boat! The phrase 'we're going to need a bigger boat' came to mind.
Yeah. I thought at least a kayak.
Crash at 9:20. Actually, more like a cartwheel than a crash. 👍
A floating fishing lure pulled behind a boat works pretty well for recovery.
Good
That was a pretty intense rescue ngl
When you said you brought the boat i was think a fishing boat to get yourself put there to pick it up 😆
This video has given me the the confidence to fly my timber with floats, I've always been worried about about flipping over in the water but now if I mess up I can just say I'm pulling a Nate! God bless you guys! You rock!!!
"You're gonna need a bigger boat!"
Really great fall colors
Wow! What a heroic review. Yep, that bird was quickly going downwind. So glad you had a friendly boater save the day. You nailed the cause of the crash. A pontoon servo is needed.
Taking off or landing with the flaps down will make it less squirrelly on the water. A real beaver can’t even take off without flaps.
It looks like your floats or toed in especially the left one
Beautiful scenery!!
…but i think you need a bigger boat!
A zipkit springer tug is what we use for water recovery. They’re cheap, easy to build and have flat bumpers on the front. Happy flying!
You need a remote control Tug boat!😁
The 3.5 Tires look like a pretty viable (wintertime) Option. (Very scale look to them, as well.) Thank you two for Putting This Up - very informative. (Hobbico have some Floats, that can be slipped on that Scout you convinced me I "hadda have for the 'Merry, Merry month of May'.")
Nate, time to buy a tugboat, or build a "springer tug". It's the almost) perfect recovery boat for both planes and boats.
I’m a goober.. I’ve got a couple great recovery boats but just grabbed this “running out the door” without really thinking about the functionality and effectiveness of it. Lesson learned the hard way! I’m definitely going to look into getting a tug like you mentioned! 👍😎💯⚓️
@@TheRcSaylors Google "Springer tug". You can buy it in kit form or build it from scratch, it's real easy.
Ahh...boat new nickname, "plane eater".
Every time you thank God it reminds me to click the like button.
🙏❤️💯✝️⚓️
you can "thank god " for that experience
Please, let’s be respectful here. Have an awesome day! 🙏❤️✝️💯⚓️
We’re going to need a bigger boat
🤣💯
On the details for the plane it says "(1) Float set with Water Rudders and Servos", rather misleading I think. It should say "With string and eleastic bands"
What a nice adventure to the boat dock by a lake and big model .
I like fpv but i like watching you guys fly los line of sight
I would think removing turn finns and just having planes rudder would be better...its amazing all electronics stull worked...
I hope we see you back with this plane... and on floats. Maybe after some mods to the rudders?
I have a few other float planes that I’d rather fly than this one tbh. It performs well without the floats though! 👍💯😎⚓️
Nice looking plane, but with the float rudders, I wouldn't get one.
Float planes raise rudders prior to take off for this reason. They are then lowered for taxiing after landing.
One thing you can do is delete one rudder. On take off raise float that doesn't have rudder in the water.
It did fly well. Big plane needs big rescue boat. Don't you have a tug boat. Very nice rescue, cudos to the rescuers. Happy🦃🦃Day. ⚓️⚓️👍💛🧡💚👍🦃👍⚓️⚓️.
This is not a new plane, I have one that I bought about 3 years ago and it included both floats and fixed gear. It is a great plane. It wasn't Tower Hobbies but I don't recall who sold it.
It was Flyzone. I have one myself from back then.
I think the jet jam boat with the pusher would've done a better job😊
A boat?
We have a boat?
Tug boat?
Ski boat?
A boat boat?
Thank god .. for the nice man in the real boat…😳
Yes absolutely! And the woman with him! We told them “thank you” probably 20 times 😅❤️💯⚓️
Real recovery boat😊
All you need for recovery is a fishing pole with a tennis ball on the line... you're welcome!
Looks like a Flyzone beaver with a new paint scheme.
Thanks for keeping it real!
❤ your channel & SERIOUSLY ❤ how you are ALWAYS keeping it real
The beaver crashed, and now the beaver is wet.
Have a good Thanksgiving 👍👍😎😎
Great plane. I mostly hear about these planes from you guys. So far, i got the eachine mustang, and waiting for the E-flite mustang.
Lol..man I've done the same thing,plane flipped over so fire up the Lil boat n get it..ya till it got stuck on the wing. 😂.
jetjam with ball catcher attached
Use the boat to take a line from a fishing pole to pull the plane back
Next time try a tennis ball on a fishing line and cast it over the plane and then reel it in.
Nice beaver .
Delete the rudders.
Or redesign with individual servos .
I love beavers on pontoons,, got that Alaskan explorer feel
Really nice airplane. Looks like a lot of fun to fly. It seems really sensitive in the water though. Maybe try adjusting the float rudder servo speed a bit, maybe that will help. Good Luck!
I wouldnt say it is a "New" plane........I'd say is is a reissue of one that was made about 10 years ago. Good honest report.
Its much easier to do a recovery if you attach some line to your boat and a bobber go around the aircraft until it gets attached a bit then tow it to shore.
Love this plane and have been flying it for 10 years. It's still the same as when it was sold under Flyzone and would have been nice if modernized it a bit. Nevertheless, it's still a great flying and fun plane. Perfect power for scale flying and light aerobatics.
Replace the fishing line with a thin piano wire.
You had me Completely Fooled, when you spoke of that vessel you intended to use for "Just In Case." (The image in my head was something inflatable, 6 to 7 feet long. {And, now that I Think of it, possibly a Lug Sail Rig, for an R/C 'Sailor.'})
Can it be still be called a crash if it wasn't flying?
Maybe you guys should get an inexpensive kayak.
Great video😊
Abby and Nate y'all rock! Happy Thanksgiving y'all. Peace
Nice video
For your viewers in the US, how does this fit under the FAA rules. Is it limited to only FRIA's?
We recommend that everyone look into their own flying sites and personal applications. If you are unsure, call the AMA and ask! 💯⚓️
@TheRcSaylors Thanks for the advice. I will hit unsubscribe and look for a more localized feed. Thanks again.
Hope you have a nice day ❤️💯⚓️
I wonder if the fishing line was being dragged the water was also having an affect on the rudders?
That's why I have water rudders removed from the beginning...
The real plane can retract them for the high speeds.
@@motoerhead1990 on the water.. genius
When he said he had a rescue boat, I thought he meant a full-size dinghy!
Use the flaps bro, use the flaps 🤭 I've actually been in brush planes on water and they use the flaps. And I use flaps with my Timber with floats.
Favorite aircraft after Canadair cl-415 water bomber
Nate honey you were a little rough on the "beaver"😮
Nice flight bit of unluck 🤏👌👌👌👌
That's gonna take a lot of rice?! Just kidding...
Thank you for sharing the "struggle bus" events that are inherent to this hobby.
Most important...thank you for your witness to Father God.
This is NOT a time for lukewarm (Revelation 3:15,16).
🙏❤️🔥🙏❄️🙏 in Christ Jesus
"Brand New" hahaha. It's a (thankfully) re-released version of the old Flyzone Island Wings Beaver! If you guys don't plan on flying that one more I'll gladly hang it from my ceiling!
Hello, Police Chief Brody says " You're going to need a bigger boat. ".
Is it me or most people have a little row boat or some thing they can paddle out to get .
Float rudders fo taxing? Retract for flight??
Hello, I noticed that your floats are not parallel. They are pointed towards each other. It seems odd.
a fishing pole with a treble hook on the line would probably have worked better for recovery.
The lesson here is always take off into the wind
I tried! Those rudders are so weak it really just skims and slides around any wild direction it wants to when up to speed. But you are absolutely correct! 👍💯😎⚓️
I can't believe how cavalier you are when you fly in airplane and that stupid stunt of a high speed water taxi that's ridiculous. Yeah just keep sending our hard-earned money to China Way to go dude
Well, it’s his money, not yours He can do what he likes. And how would you take off or land without a high-speed taxi? What a dumb comment.
Looked like your left wing tip may have dipped.
Rc tugboat with a recovery device made of PVC and pool noodles would recover that with no issue. Ask me how I know ;-) I have the original Flyzone Beaver that this is the exact replica of.
Very cool
Woot!! You got first!! 👍💯😎⚓️
Maybe an RC sea tug eh?
Try moving around on water at a slower speed !!! Also the rudder movement was to course ... a finer setting would have been better ..
You can do without the bush, but you can't do without the beaver
Mk time for prayer
