  • F-86 Micro Jet Minimum RC
    This video will be a review of the www.MinimumRC.com F-86 micro electric ducted fan electric RC model airplane. Review will include an unbox, build and test flights.
    The MinimumRC models are very well designed and extremely light weight. The F-86 total flight weight is 1.7 ounces. The model goes together quickly with a unique build process. A photo illustrated on-line construction manual will take you through the build step-by-step and must be followed to the letter.
    The F-86 flew exceptionally well. It moves right along in the air. While not a trainer, it is surprisingly easy to fly and is quite responsive. Plus, it looks great.

    Love that we live in an age where we can build what should be basically 1/48 static scale models, but they actually fly more than once.

    Nicely done Tim, so they've changed the wooden dihedral brace to plastic, that's an innovation from all the other models of theirs I've put together 👍

      Cliff: Many thanks! As you know, once you figure out how these kits fit, they go together quickly. The F-86 was a very good flyer. Tim

    My Minimum MiG flew on rails, easily the best flights I've had are logged on that model. I've got the Sabre under my desk ready to build soon. I definitely got a few of the plastic bits upsidedown on the MiG and had to take it apart like I was defusing a IED. The finish got a little banged up as a result, but not bad at all. This thin depron foam is unforgiving in the build stage, but it's super tough. It has outlasted many of my firm landings

    I'm seriously considering purchasing the Fanjet kit they have. I have the mini ASW glider and that flies really well but it's very small. I would put a nice 64mm EDF in that Fanjet model.

    Is there a way two run two fan units off the receiver/speed control?

    • @TimMcKay56
      @TimMcKay56  15 днів тому +1

      The motors are brushless motors, so I guess it would be possible to solder in the wires from a second motor to the ESC unit, but I am not sure. The big issue will be the 260 miah battery . . . . although if a bigger model, maybe you could use a larger battery.

      @@TimMcKay56 I did that about 20 min ago I was using safari on my iPad and it just wouldn’t load, so I went out to my shop and tried my windows pc I use to run beta flight on my quad copters, and used Firefox browser and it worked great, I just ordered The glider with the pop up motor. I was going to get the jet in the video but I love gliders I had a DG 1000 with a retractable motor years ago with FPV camera on it and loved it. Unfortunately it crashed and was unrepairable so I’ve been looking for a replacement ever since. This one will probably be too small to FPV, but I can still glide around the farm with it line of sight. Thanks for the great review on the jet. I’d never seen minimum RC before but I’ll be buying lots of stuff from them 👍
