That thing is fast! Nice video fellas! Missin Jeff on the camera or stixs. I hope you bring it to Kinston this weekend 😉😁
Thanks ken! The new date change killed my chance to go! Jeffs a busy guy at times, 😉We'll have to motivate him more and get him out to the field more!
The F-104 is a special plane! In stock form its tail heavy so you really gotta be careful on landings. But man in a steep dive its no joke!! Thats what I used to do with mine back in the day. Take it up until its a speck and then split is and punch it!! Mine is getting new gear and the Viper 90 inrunner… should be even better now!!!
I bet that Viper 90mm EDF will definitely make it faster
@@RCPlaneReviewer the biggest issue with the F-104 is the motor location. So the original FMS fan I used was way livhter than stock and the new Viper 90mm set up is barely heavier but a much better inrunner!! Gonna take some work but should be worth it in the end!!
133 is gettin’ it!! Like you, I’d have thought it would have been a handful and would have dropped like a rock in the turns, but happy to see I was wrong! Looks like it handles well for a manned missile!! Great flying!
Bobby , I carry about 15 DEG on the flaps for takeoff , an use that for landing also , full is overkill , the air brakes not so often , move the c.g. back a little an you can get the nose up more on landing , an takeoff, whtch the ELE control horn , it can come loose an screw everything up , Been there done that !!
That was the best way to go about it. Start a flare when you're coming in and up just a few feet, then if you get a good feel of the sink rate and it's going fast enough to not drop like a brick, then just let it drop itself and land. Don't try to flare again after the first flare if it started lifting up as it did. In other words just take the darn landing as good enough in one piece.
NASA! 👏🏽
TJ, I bet your eyes are still looking for that rocket. 😂 nice job tracking that little rocket.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I do agree 100%, it has to be intimidating. Maybe an SR71 would be worse, but Chuck Yeager flew both :) and only crashed one
Cooking with crisco!! Wow that was a couple good flights 🙌🏼 133mph for that Naboo N1 Starfighter in s awesome!
Love y’all’s channel! Your commentary is concise and informative. Only problem is for 90% of the video you can’t see the plane. It’s not bad camera work, it’s bad choice of lens-you know, I’m not smart enough to describe what I’m trying to say but I know that there are other lenses or aspect ratios or whatever they call it that would bring down that panoramic view to a view in which you could see the jet without having to zoom in. Does anyone know what I’m trying to say! Haha!
Anyway, as it is right now your jet looks like a spec in an ocean of blue sky. Until you fly it really close you can’t see anything.
Oh well, sorry to bother you. Still a fun video of an iconic jet! And very well flown-at least I THINK it was! Haha!
Thanks!
Thanks for the kind words!! Really appreciate the support and feedback 🙏
Love the F104 nice job flying her she is definitely a rocket ship👍
great job guys!!!
That was epic!!!
Beautiful bird you flew it great !!!!!! man so fast +what a sound greetings from Wales.
Much appreciated 🙏 and thank you for checking us out from across the pond!
Cool flights guys. What type of GPS module and app were you using? Does it real time feed to the phone?
It's one off Amazon that uses blue tooth..you don't get live speed data but it records and then send results to your phone when you a few feet away.
Looks great, sounds great and flown great. Is that the 6S high performance 9 blade version?
Gonna maiden mine soon.... any tips??
Send it!!! Keep some speed on landing, add gyro if you can and hang on for the ride!
Excellent job sir, nicely done!!!
Appreciate it!!!
Great job!
Hey no harm done! All good!
What happened with the main gear doors Bobby ??
Took them bad boys off for grass ops
Wait... what video was it where you said this was a one and done flight? After you landed, you said that's it its going back... because it was squirelly in flight...
Yep, and it's just not enjoyable to fly for me, disappears in the sky in turns, unstable.but somewhat unique
Thanks Bobby , I wanted to se your flight on this model , God job Bro !!
Bobby , like I told you on some shows back , once you get the setup correct , you would like this model , just wait till you have a hard surface to fly from Bro !!
you were 100% correct
Subscribed. I wish you the best. Plan to purchase. If your interested. I designed a F104 window vinyl. Glad to send one to you. Love the sound and speed. The designer, Lockheed's Kelly Johnson designed this for max 2.1 mach. did you know today 2023 it still holds the record for sea level to 80k feet vertical climb. And it flys higher than the F22 raptor or the F35. You guys empower. thanks for all of you making this video. And you sir, the Pilot are incredible. RIght now I fly a wonderful RC S-23 glider. RC is a wonderful hobby. do not know how to contact you for the vinyl if interested. I backseated F14D, F4 Phantom, a P51mustang, and a P47 T Bolt. the F4 was to me the ost thrilling for balls to the wall speed. GOD bless, be safe and enjoy your youths.
Thanks for the subscription and checking out the channel!! The F-104 is historically an amazing airplane. I had no idea it held those records to this day!! Super impressive! Thanks again for the kind words 🙏 😊
I noticed that in both flights that you took off right to left and landed left to right. Good job flying that bird. It DOES look like a rocket!
Yes it does!
Great looking jet great flight Congrats on maiden it is a awesome jet👍👍👍👍😀😃
Thanks 👍!
We're those doors for the landing gear?
I was thinking the same thing. Maybe some one gifted this plane to him?
Hey I know this is a unique model but is there an EDF that you would recommend flying before the f104 to semi prepare you ???
(F104)
The T33
The Missle with Hummingbird Wings
Im in love! What a bitchen looking jet...🙌🙌🙌
Do you think you could make one of these into an fpv?
Ehhhhh it's possible but landing would be scary
@@RCPlaneReviewer I think the landing in a real Starfighter was scary lol
Awesome. You guys are the best
I have had 2 of these love the look but its a handfull to land at times
Lol handful of landmines hahahh it's definitely has a short life expectation
WHEW !!!
It's definitely a different kind of bird!!!
Man, nicely done with the widowmaker -:) I REALLY wish I had gotten the 70mm before it was gone, heard it's easier to fly, being lighter. I'm shocked that it doesn't need HUGE amounts of elevator pull in the turns, nice that it does not though. I'm pretty experienced, should be able to handle it, but DANG! I know I'd be super nervous!! Thanks for the review, because it seems few people review this one 😁
Thanks I really appreciate it! This is one that alot of people dont review bacause they are scared of it rightfully so but after getting it trimmed out it wasnt that bad!!
I can't stand the F-104. Terrible plane... lol
P
You guys push the limits every time man. Always a good time here guys, really enjoy the vids. Just the right balance of bullshit and business. 😂
Thanks! We trt to make it fun and different
