Why do you never show camera crew !
We have shown the camera crew many times over the years, from as recently as when she was flying the Aeroscout, to when we built the A380 - gotta look for it ;)
I choose NOT to be on camera on Brian's channel. I'm NOT an RC aficionado, that's why it's called BrianPhillipsRC. I'm good at filming and that's what I bring here... this is my choice. If you're still extra curious, you can click on my channel just to see me.
Brian can I ask you again, I'm sure you never saw my text. I have tge Dassualt Rafale. I have everything thing working on my throws but I have this Beaping going on as soon as I plug my battery in..I'm about to pitch this Jet. I been on thus fir 2 days an have no idea what is wrong.... you have any idea ?? Thanks for any help
Thank you for being so patient and persuasive Brian, thanks to you I decided to get me a rc plane. Took a couple tries but it is so rewarding like you said. Keep up the great videos!
Nice! You can do it. It's NOT easy, but you can get where you want to be, and we'll be here to help push you along the way!
Good luck Alexis!
Imagine standing near lightening with the old 3ft FM antennas!
I love my prop balancer and just spraying on water based Minwax Polycrylic on back of prop in thin layers until balanced (Dries quick but it lightens a bit so it always takes one extra hit). Spinner balancer is always a pain.
COOL! Like the idea about polycrilic!
@@BrianPhillipsRC😊
You guys have one awesome channel ! Love your in depth videos, and by the way, they are not too long. You are a great teacher with the ability to keep everything so interesting. I may not comment very much, but I have watched what seems countless videos and haven't seen any that were anything but over the top great. I'm sure I'm not the only one with those kind of feelings either. We need your channel, please keep up the great work. Thank you guys so so much.
Thanks so much! It's reassuring to hear that you think so. I try very hard to strike a balance between fully informative and extreme boredom...tough when you aren't 100% sure who the audience will be.
We'll keep it up if you keep coming back for more, Buster ;)
Brian and camera crew, just watched your unboxing of the tracker rtf plane. Thank You. Going to buy it with an extra battery and a couple props. Your friend and mine Rich 👍
Thanks Rich! Great choice ;)
Brian and camera crew, just order it through your video from the unboxing of the trekker and I’ll be helping your channel right.
Wow it got in the air super fast! Very stable with auto level!
It's a well oiled machine!!!
Your Airplane hanger must be as big as your house, LOL! Good video.
It's half out basement!!!
@@BrianPhillipsRC LOL. Enjoy them!!! 👍👍
Dripped by rain drips. I was sooo nervous for a tornado. So glad it didn’t happen.
I was only concerned about the lightning...it was pretty much non-stop the whole second video....like 100% of the time we were out there, it was thundering.
I love everything about this video and I'm sure Arrows feels the same way lol. I'm still chuckling over Brian casually whistling inside while Megan (camera crew) is showing the sky/storm 😂 bet you're glad you upgraded those mics a while back haha great great video
LOL - Glad you heard this...embarrassment is just the name of the game for a UA-camr ;)
Thanks for all the help you give
lOVE YOUR CHANNEL! Don't have a plane yet. Going to though. I check your channel out and three hours later, I am still watching. Camera crew is phenomenal, and Brian you are amazing and entertaining. Totally appreciate all you do.
Welcome aboard! So much more waiting here for you, when you have time ;)
Gotta love those flatlands thunderstorms. We just dont ever get them like that in the Northwest.
Cool new plane from Arrows. I like the tricycle gear. Good first plane in the RTF version.
This is a GREAT plane! I hope people get one, since it does everything well...would like to see flaps, but RTF for $250 is a great value in today's insane inflation-ville!
@@BrianPhillipsRC Wait until you see the Prodigy RTF they just put out. A 1400 sport pusher/bixler for $169
I find tornados fascinating, same with all storms, I live in the Midwest so we get them sometimes not ALWAYS, but I always go out to look at them!🤣 Love your videos! I always get nervous flying in wind and you fly in high winds and rain🤣
Well, rain is usually an "oops" but the rest - yes ;) It's like all the things that the RC prudes would say is "irresponsible" as though we don't carry insurance (...the real insurance that actually pays...unlike AMA - LOL) and we don't own the property - LOL - I had a guy complaining about flying over and under power lines...the ones we bought and paid for. Too bad we can't "vote" these type of RC'ers "off the island" [sorry, Survivor reference, if it wasn't totally clear]
I'd done anything to have had a BrianPhillipsRc back in the late seventies when I started ,
Awesome show brother & camera crew 😎👍🇺🇸
Hope you and your family were safe during those tornados in Iowa! Love the video! That lighting looked amazing!
We are - loved watching, but were bummed to hear about the 7 deaths and destruction. We spend the next day helping a friend clean up from significant storm damage :(... but there were homes on the way FLATTENED....like GONE....and debri fields crossing the 4 lane (imagine interstate) bypass highway. It was pretty incredible. 100+ foot tall trees...while groves cut in a line like a giant monster truck just went off roading right thought them!
@@BrianPhillipsRC yes, very sad when I heard about the deaths and destruction
Midwest storms are the best. . . Loved hearing the thunder. Oh the plane is cool too! Please fly it into the storm. Maybe fpv so you're far away when it explodes from a bolt.
They sure are! It's a real bummer though, 7 people got killed in these storms Saturday, then a bunch of houses destroyed....then it SNOWED the next evening into Monday morning - what a bummer.
We survived, and usually most of us do, but this system had a ton of big tornadoes coming out of it...and one hit about less than a quarter mile away from where another tornado had destroyed my teenage home!!!
It's OK to still have Christmas decorations up! The wife and I kept a few up ourselves! We all need a little extra happiness in today's world!
NICE! Megan just laughed when I shared your comment ;)
That sir, is some ridiculous amount of FUN! lol dam! lol too good.
You got that right! It was a blast to do this video!!! Glad you enjoyed it!
Great video guys.Glad your all okay that storm front was bad apparently some people were killed in one of those tornadoes.Eyes to the skies guys stay safe .
Yep, 7 people, and one family was here visiting their folks, and half of them were killed - really sad, and RARE too that we have loss of life. This was an EF4...BIG one. We were sparred, but spend most of Sunday (the next day) helping our friends that got hit...and their parents, who were in Texas due to some medical complications, they lost a part of their garage, and HUGE amount of trees...like 10 feet wide, oak trees, twisted like a bath towel!
Ahaha crazy video my Mrs would go nuts with those lightens
LOL - Exactly!
Thank you guys. Hope you guys are ok, I was watching those storms on radar, looked nasty.
They were. They killed 7 people! This is highly unusual...we get a lot of damage, but rarely are they deadly.
Good flight guys nice airplane. Brian, Megan you guys be safe this coming spring it's going to be a rough one.❤👍
Safe and sound ;)
Just started to put the plane together because the batteries just showed up last night. You're correct about the screw misalignment with mating the fuselage halves. I've used your trick before with fixing issues like that by lightly forcing an alignment. Unfortunately mine is pretty far off and I'll be sanding the nose side. The problem appears to be that the plastic reinforcement, on the tail side, is indented just enough to cause the problem. That's a minor production fix I believe.
You Sir are SOOOOOOO! fun to watch wring out an RC plane.....and no one on youtube can pull off what you can while being so entertaining in their front yard.....And your video is out for 2 hours and already has over 3K views....and its 2 hours and 45 minutes long and I'm watching it again for stuff I gotta watch again because I was laughing so much.....LOVE IT!!!!!! TY for posting ...Lee
So glad you enjoyed it! We also didn't end up getting sucked up into a tornado, so WIN-WIN!!!
I literally checked your channel Saturday to see if you reviewed this yet because I was browsing Hobbyzone and saw this plane. Two days later you are flying it lol.
It’s preorder isn’t it?
Yeah it says preorder. Pretty cool plane for the price I may have to get one this spring.
We had it uploading, but it took 2 days to upload ;)
Great fun video Brian ! just Love Man ! Nice flying as always ! Nothing but PLANE old Fun ! Keep um coming !
NICE!!!! Puns are always welcome here!
Thank you for the review!
You're welcome! Great plane!
Honest to God I'm setting here thinking the calm before the storm as Brian says it 😂 Great time to fly far as wind LIGHTNING ⚡ NOT. 😆 Pretty cool plane for the price. 🔥 Seems like it flies great cheap prop but no biggy cheap and easy to change.
Thanks Camera Crew for going above and beyond to bring us great content 🔥👍 and putting up with Brian's madness 😂
Nice flying Brian 🔥👍✌️
Glad you checked this video out Erric! It was a fun one to put together, and the plane was amazing too!!!
being a Californian and seeing how little your reaction is to that storm is INSAINE. Recently you've probably heard that we have had some really bad storms, for California standards at least we've had towns flood and trees fall but that just looks fatal! Love your content man keep it up!
We see storms like this all the time. It's just part of our way of life...and we need the rain, so it's a win win, unless you're trapped under a bus that got thrown into your house...or your neighbors barn rolls through your yard, and hits the garage...or whatever...these things happen too, thus we have insurance to help offset our risk. My parent's house was hit by and destroyed by a tornado while they were in it. They were fine, since we have basements, and they had a stairway the were under for the duration of the event. They maxed out the insurance policy, so when you get a home and if you have the risk, get home owners insurance, and never miss a payment ;)
@@BrianPhillipsRC well I am glad you guys where safe and worse didn't come to worse.
The Midwest may be boring but we got plenty of storms! Midwest is best!
Yep! So many good things here...totally worth it ;)
The airplane looks cool and very powerful
Totally is, and we'll get some footage on a calm evening soon, so you can see for yourself even better how this Trekker performs ;)
NIce to see Arrows, Horizon Hobby, and others rising the quality bar for other (unmentioned) companies to aspire too.
YES! We're very happy to see this and experience it!
Can't waite to get home to see what you got popping.
It's gona be epic ;)
@@BrianPhillipsRC it did look sweet with the skies looking the way that they did.
Gotta say a few things as an rc friend getting back in. first plane was 28mhz 2 channel powered glider. simple turn on transmitter hold it up and switch on motor ( flat out or dead stick landings.) Rudder and elevator. using that old stuff for a sail boat now. Oh yeah I'm 60 and stormy here. Screwed up on a motor /prop test on test rig by prop tips not painted ,so reaching under, to feel the esc thumb and prop on the three blade took off some skin and 1 bade. Ouch and tears. Fixed the prop with a couple of drops of ca to hold blade and then used some stuff I make myself. Old cd covers dissolved in Cellulose paint thinner (car Paint thinner). drip that on and it welds plastic to plastic. Join is as strong as original but let it wait over night.
AWESOME! I have to try it now!!!
Awesome video Brian your such an RC geek. Brave camera work Megan . LMAO.👍😂
Thanks 👍 - Geek I am!
Hello Brian so happy,its New Airplane😁😁😁😁😁
Sure is!
What the hail! Got a real charge out of seeing you fly in the thunderstorm. Flying in a tornado can really blow. Be safe.
WOW - You really punned that comment right up!!!! Love it!
Best video yet! Love the weather that was captured by the camera crew. Trekker was great too. Any other new Arrows coming soon releases in the near future? Something 86 is on preorder????
I think it is, but I don't know time lines. I can't wait to review what you have possibly heard about ;)
Just ordered one
it is insane how you can fly this rc plane in the storm in a small space!
Stormy background really makes it look scale. Awesome video and I loved it. Camera Crew is the greatest. My wife would say, "You're nuts. I'm staying inside."
Right on!
Well good the twister didn't hit ya. So The Extreme is still flying and I get something to look forward to after work.
This one was FUN to put together!!! Awesome plane too ;)
@@BrianPhillipsRC I noticed they are all awesome planes when you fly um. 🤣
Just bought the Trekker and just like Brian has shown, it's a well engineered plane. I wanted something reasonably sturdy to train our grandchild to fly. Just started to assemble it today and will be using a Spektrum 6 channel receiver and my NX 10 & 6 transmitters in a buddy-box setup. Here's my question: Has anyone used a 3200 - 30C - 3S 11.1 battery in this plane?
I don't have anything smaller than that, just larger. I'll buy a couple of the little guys if I have to but would like to avoid adding to my growing collection.
3300 3S would be just fine. Get your CG right, and you'll be fine, BUT for a beginner, might want to go as light as possible.
Good luck John! Great plane; Enjoy!!!
@@BrianPhillipsRC Thanks, Brian! I took your advice and bought a couple of 1,300's. I'll probably take it up by myself with the 3.200.
Hopefully you’re all doing ok with those tornadoes. I’ve heard about that one on Saturday night sounds devastating. Anyway I love your videos because I’m an RC airplane pilot myself!
We did okay, but you're right, 7 people died...really terrible devastation in some areas...tough to hear.
Yep, the 2 fuselage screws were a pain. I finally had to open the holes a tiny bit. That did the trick.
1:21 am I hearing a bit of Petrincic bro's, Captain Blaz in your exclaim? Haha
Maybe??? LOL
Great back drop to fly
For sure! Hope the visibility was good enough to satisfy!
I would get this if not for the Bigfooot that I still haven't maidened it yet, spring is almost here. I saw the Prodigy as well. Looks great, not sure if your reviewing it.
I get it. Bigfoot is VERY GOOD TOO!
Stirs up memories of tornadoes and storms in Tennessee.... And yes.. I'd fly in that weather...
Awesome! You GET US!
Glad to know I’m not the only one that sounds like he is about to tackle someone during a near f up 😂 ty for another one!!
LOL!!!!
Sweet man
Totally is!
A wet tip is better than a dirty tip!😄
True!
You and your wife are fearless, I would've been hiding in the basement when that alarm sounded off.
LOL - If you lived here, you would have been going out back to put the hamburgers on the grill ;) LOL
We had some friends get hit by this tornado, and some people in Winterset, Iowa, were actually killed, so kind of a stronger than average storm system...but we were very fortunate.
If I wanted to set this plane up PNP what channel would I have to set a switch for in order to control the vector stabilization? Using a dx6e transmitter and an ar620 receiver.
If you're hooking it up, you'll know (and I won't). When you plug in the port, you'll probably end up using GEAR (Channel 5) in most cases. But you can go into channel 6 too...just depends on how you hook it up on the AR620
My first RC, just put together my Trekker, very easy having you guide us through the steps, thank you. One thing I noticed did I miss you mounting the receiver to a surface or does it just lay in the fuselage behind the battery? I thought if it wasn't mounted the stability system would have trouble figuring out planes axis?
Absolutely get an extra prop or two to have on hand. It happens to all of us but sorry yours broke. I think the A-10 could do the "Twister" Movie job. It has to be strong enough to dive into one of those tornados lol. Its a beast.
Scary storms! Great video captures though! Nice work you two.
Thanks Sean! It was fun, and we hit BEFORE, AFTER, and BETWEEN - Oh yeahhhh
I'm a little surprised you glued that snapped stock prop back together. They're only $6.99. Good advice to add 1 or 2 to every new plane purchase however. I am in the habit of doing that now.
Good 👍🏻😊✈️
Thanks!
Hi, during my first landing broke the fixation cone of the propeller (the white fixation in contact with the motor shaft).
Do you know if i can buy another piece other than the original ? Does this kind of piece are generic to other planes ?
SPINNERS are not generic on most planes. There's a few different styles, so you MIGHT be able to find something that'll work, but you'll be wasting a lot of time and money along the way, since it's Less than $5. IF you ever need spare parts, just follow our links to the PLANE in the video description...then there's tabs down below the picture, that say, "PARTS" (the second tab over from the left).

@@BrianPhillipsRC thank's a lot !
Nice trainer Brian...Can't wait for your Arrows F86 review ......soon ?
As soon as they get the container, I assume, but we haven't got it yet ;(
@@BrianPhillipsRC Can't be soon enough...I see the R/C swaylors have one but he's too weird and goofy for me. I had to unsubscribe from the swaylors......lol
So you can be a little PC the regular loop is an inside loop and ur upside down loop is an outside loop and it refers to the pilot in relation to the circle being made.
OOPS - sorry about that!
What plane is best to start with as a person that never flown aeroscout or the trekker
I like Arrows Vector Stab on my Bigfoot with an AR620.
Good combo, and very price efficient!
@@BrianPhillipsRC don't have rubber bands either
@ buck Reynolds’s was it pretty simple to set up the vector stabilizer with the spektrum?
@@djr01974 easy as pie
Hi sir I am Jack , pls answer my question sir ,since the Tornado75 is a 6S power system. I need TWO of them in SERIES, and then I would essentially have a 3500 6S right sir?
yes!
You would need two 3S packs in SERIES to "make" a 6S.
Exactly - Good luck Jack!
@@BrianPhillipsRC Thanks you have a great day sir
We are truly spoilt for choice of great aircraft these days!
YES WE ARE!!!
I’ve never flown rc plane and would like to enter this hobby. I’m looking at this v/s the aeroscout. Which one would you recommend? Which is the more forgiving? Also, can you do a comparison video between the two? Or would you suggest to go entirely different route and get Sport Cub S 2?
Here's my template response to get your started, but you can fire back with questions, of course ;)

Mini Aer
Made a big mistake and rushed to fly my trekker, not sure what went wrong but the stabilisation was not working properly and lost control, now waiting for the glue to dry for the wing that broke, propeller also snapped so have to order a new one, very gutted with myself!!☹️
Sorry to hear. Hate when that happens!!!! If you find a similar prop, you might be able to get her flying??? Did you by chance have some CHINA GLUE Around? That stuff is my favorite for crash damage.
@@BrianPhillipsRC Hi yes got some foam glue online, wing is back together and wheels are now straight again, I think the stabilisation had come loose on take off so I think it could have been the reason for the crash, have ordered 2 new propellers so hopefully will give it another go!!🤞
Hi Brian, what other propeller do you recommend for this plane?
I actually Baught a 300 extra, and no I haven't put it together, cause I seen it and I really wanted it. I knew by the time I got to be able to fly it it would probably be gone. But I wanted to get one like this to learn on first. So yeah I'll probably get this this plane .
Not a bad policy right now, with insane lead times, and everything going crazy in our world.
Hi Brian, i am new to this hobby and have only flown rtf models with giro safe mode such as the ranger 850mm, fms super ez, i have bought myself a spektrum dx6e radio and is it possible to use a giro with this radio?....... Jeff, southern UK.
You can if you get the PNP and then outfit the plane with an AR630 (link is in the video description for both).
When you get a PNP (plug and play) you provide the Transmitter (in your case the DX6e) and the Receiver, the AR630 from above, and then you setup the plane on the radio system.
As for the RTF - you would have to get a RTF that's in DSMX (or DSM2) to work. This is the protocol that the Transmitter and Receiver use to "speak" to each other. The Treckker is not DSMX.
@@BrianPhillipsRC Thankyou Brian for your help.
@@BrianPhillipsRC Thanks for the advice Brian.
@@BrianPhillipsRC Thankyou for the advice...jeff.
@@BrianPhillipsRC Hi Brian, i have got the AR630 reciever but i dont have the forward programming on my dx6e radio or i cannot find it....any help wil be appreciated...atb...jeff.
I’d love to see how aerobatic the Trekker can be with the throws kicked up. Did you use stock throws. In the video?
It's already pretty amazing as it is!!! I don't measure throws, I fly to see how I like it :)
You guys should do a live stream ☺️ that could be fun, I love to fly my dynam skytrainer in a thunderstorm Storm .
We were toying with the idea of doing a live stream Q&A. Possibly a regular thing??? We don't know for sure.
@@BrianPhillipsRC That would be way AWESOME Brian if you would do a live stream ! Give us at least a day or two notice !
Plus is this like a trainer for a new pilot
yes ;)
I saw that in the distance there is a storm, pay close attention
Actually, the storm killed 7 people, unfortunately, and destroyed many homes too. We spend much of Sunday (next day after filming) helping our friends who fell victim to one of the tornadoes. Fortunately, we were spared everything but the wind sock, which I have since recovered.
Does the RTF version come with the remoe control and battery?
If it is RTF, it comes with the plane, battery, charger, and transmitter, but you may have to provide your AAA's or AA's for the Transmitter.
Brian i watch your vids but that light sounding beeping in the background sucks and annoying !
This is the Transmitter beeping every minute. It can't be helped when I fly these ones, since they do this ;( As for the other noise, that was the tornado sirens.
Put a star sticker on it for cliche. It’ll be the “Star Trekker”!
Missed opportunity, check - LOL!!! Great idea!
Wow that prop is thin. Looks like they'll be out of stock in no time! Still waiting for pioneer props to be available, 4 months later....
I had this APC just sitting around. I was pretty disappointed at how easy it broke...it was WAY easy...and honestly, we both said - we couldn't believe it broke... That was NOT a hard crash...more of a tip over after some grass ops.
Nice and funny looking plane. And i have a question: How are your cats doing?
Thanks! Cats are doing okay. We have 3 females. We got them spayed, but one ran away fro a month, then came back...she has decided to evacuate again - so annoying - and one male left. He's my favorite, and beautiful, and BIG, but he's also been marking, so it's off with his balls very soon - getting tired of the pee smell, and constant cleaning - if it weren't for this, and the occasional wake up for cat fight, it's been very good. The matriarch of the cat family is a GREAT hunter, but she HATES her sister, Colby, who is now on her second hiatus...hopefully she comes back.
@@BrianPhillipsRC that makes me really happy for you. I also have two cats - domestic cats - Joko and Elly and Joko is also marking but Elly is not in the mood for him so his balls will come off soon (tomorrow). In any case, I wish you all the best and fun with your cats. And by the way, I'm currently building the suprime Hobbies a320.
My propeller seems to be spinning in the wrong direction on Mt Trekker.
Swap any two of the motor leads to reverse the motor. Should be running COUNTER CLOCK WISE viewed from the front... I'm sorry for the very slow reply. I assume you must have found the answer already, but we're running WAY behind on comments, Mark - please accept my humble apologies!
2:52 also very hilarious
Glad you liked it, and I didn't destroy your speakers ;)
Hay Brian is it easier to learn to fly rc planes. If you can fly rc helicopters if not what’s the biggest difference.
Planes and Heli's are very similar to fly, but Heli's have some notable advantages - you can stop, while an airplane doesn't often stop without falling :) BUT heli's, without SAFE or similar technology are very challenging to learn to fly.
Hey I'm #1 Again! 😜 Y'alls Need A UPS For Your Computers+! Really Great L@@Kin Special Video Effects!! 🤣
#1 - Congrats!!! We have three of them UPS'es!!!
Special Effects - LOL :)
Hey buddy, is his plane better than the bigfoot, FMS skytrainer? Also can you please do a video on the HSD CESSNA 2.0 I value your opinion on these airplanes thank you.
I can't say it's better than the Bigfoot - I'd say it's very similar. This plane flies WAY better than the Sky Trainer 1.4m.
I want to do that HSD planes, but so far, not working with a vendor for them yet.
does it come with floats or are they optinol?
Floats are optional on this one David.
Never mind, I just heard it lol
Exactly!
Wow great price for today You guys be careful out there. We would miss you if you blew away.
Thanks, and will do ;)
never heard of someone gluing a prop.
Welcome to BrianPhillipsRC ;) LOL
The prop seems fragile. Any alternative stronger prop suggestion ? Thx Brian.
100% agree. I happened to have that SLOW FLIGHT PROP - amzn.to/36dsEcC
Worked great, except the width was JUST more than the spinner allowed for, so if you can do it in not such a hurry (like we did), take your exacto knife and carve out a small notch on each side to allow the larger surface, so it's not so hard to take the spinner off when and if you'd break it again.
@@BrianPhillipsRC Thanks man for the great advice.
Hey Brian,
This / X Fly Glastar ?
Thx man
Hey Brian,
This / X Fly Glastar ?
Thx man
How come mine did not come with the stabilizer I just got
Did you order one with PNP only, no-vector???
@@BrianPhillipsRC I just watch the video and they said it had it in it so I ordered it
The link to the prop you bought is dead. The original prop is out of stock. Can you give the link or correct name again, please?
I am about to buy one of these as my first RC plane for myself and grandson (maybe other grandkids also!). Thanks for the videos!
Try this link...
bit.ly/3lmfYrw
Tower Hobbies is much more likely to keep it in stock vs Amazon. Hope that helps and hope the grandkids love it!!
I think Arrows hobby made a cool planes great for beginer flyer its good foam and good quality control not like FMS this days i have bigfoot, marlin, viper, sabre and f15😆 thanks for all review all my arrows product cause all your review..
Thanks Felix!
Where do you live where you have to worry about hurricanes, other than the ones with props. Ha ha! Typed this before you said Iowa.
LOL - No problem! We're in Iowa, and don't worry, we get "inland hurricanes too" only no warning...called Deracho's - they are huge wind events, but no storm surge and the like ;)
If that plane got struck by lightning, UA-cam would be handing you an award for the 10 million hits you would get.. lol
LOL!!! That would have been amazing, plus the cool coffee cup I would have gotten out of the deal...the Arrows Coffee cup ;)
Camera crew and Brian's better half how often are you tempted to give him a quick dig in the ribs with straight fingers.
Is he as much a perfectionist and is he a peddent I get the feeling he could be.
My miss's now in a better place was very good at catching me just right, I do not have a YT channel being in witness protection makes it not the best idea.
Flying in a storm not smart I have had a 5th gas hit by lightning right on the titanium exhaust turned a lovely colour never able to repeat as it had a spiders web type design but with colour changes as it fans out.
WOW! This comment, Nick, is loaded!!!!
So you have a plane that was struck by lightning OR you heard of it???
@@BrianPhillipsRC Friend has largescale gas and it was struck by lightening thought it was going to crash and burn but he managed to glide it in and land really thought it was going to be fried it started back up as if nothing had happened apart from the fantastic strike pattern on the titanium exhaust. Just wondered about the dig in the ribs because listening to you two is how my wife and I were her mother used to get fed up as we never stopped talking and playing around teasing etc. Brings happy memories think I may have said this before she was sixty me sixty just retired 2017 looking to enjoy retirement.
How do you reply
Here - I reply here.
Beat the tornado 🌪! Wow 🤩 some of the moves Brian had me on the edge of seat 💺! Maverick is back!
LOL - I put the breaks on an the Tornado flew right by - LOL
Sadly this video has placed me in a real awkward position. Since viewing, my young son now thinks its acceptable for him to fly during storms. Difficult to understand why Mr Phillips would put out such a production, knowing that young pilots may be watching.
looks like a cheap plane from 10+ years ago
It's a cheap plane from right now....nothing is cheap now ;)
I’m worried sick y’all died in a 🌪. We need proof of life.
Proof of life you shall receive ;)
