The I can't end on a bad note remark made me think of when I took my Avanti up after losing my P-51 Old Crow to a fight with a tree. Keep it up! Your personality helps keep me going sometimes
I feel like we think a like! Haha. Sorry to hear about the P-51 but glad to hear you’re making the best of it! I appreciate the kind words and thank you so much for watching!
@@Mach3RC Its all good. I'm hoping to try and repair the P-51 over the next few weeks but I dunno how saveable it is. It's the Freewing P-51D Old Crow if you're interested. And tbh I wouldn't be surprised lol, seems like we view things similarly. Always a joy to watch, plan to start recording my own RC adventure
I have one of these as recently got into flying, I don’t have the floats but these are such a fun plane to fly. The bigger fms kingfisher as also a nice plane to fly
Enjoyable as always! Brother that fish was a monster you can probably catch more than an airplane if you bring your rod. Looking forward to the next video!
I was looking at this plane, I had it in the basket and never had the money. I'd be terrified if I had no boat to recover, I have a hard enough time on land with trees😮😂, I enjoy your videos keep up the good work!
Thank you so much!! Appreciate you watching and yeah I kinda had to be ready to jump in and swim if need be hahaha. Use code Mach3RC to save some money if you decide to order! 💪🏻
Great set of videos with this Ranger on floats. I just found your channel and know this video is about a month old. Love that you removed the nose gear for float flying - first time I've seen this done. How did you do that and can it be put back, or is this a dedicated float plane now? Please let us know if you read this comment, thanks! You can get a Lemon 7 ch receiver for like $16 to use with the reflex gyro and your spextrum transmitter. Better range then the spectrum sport receivers at a fraction of the cost. My go to receiver for FMS planes with Reflex.
Thank you for the kind words and I’m so happy you’re enjoying the content! If you look in my “shorts” videos on my channel I made a video explaining how to do it! It’s SUPER easy and just as easy to put back on! That’s interesting to hear about the lemon receiver. I’d love to give it a shot but have heard so many bad stories about them losing signal!
Greetings from Canada 🇨🇦, I have this plane and I flew this in land and lake, when I saw your video you did a mistake with battery because my battery is dead on the middle of the lake so I learned only fly 4 minutes to be safe.. Greetings.
Thanks for watching! Yes, I flew a bit too long on this one haha. I’ve had many flights since recording and I’m able to get about 10 minutes of flight time!
@@Mach3RC haha I got what I thought would be a good one a cheap jet boat wltoys but I got a lemon and it goes so slow the ducks swim past it 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤦♂️
I have a question: when a floatplane like this one flips over after crashing is there a chance that the electronics with be destroyed due to water getting in? If there is how likely am i to wreck my plane?
I’ve flipped over quite a few times and mine is still flying today! However there is always a chance. If it flips over, I recommend not moving the throttle or servos. Retrieve the plane and let it dry out. Luckily parts are cheap and easy to replace too! But mines still going strong
I’ve never flown off saltwater. I don’t know too much about that as I don’t have any saltwater near me. I’d watch some videos on rc flying off saltwater!
Lmk if you guys liked this style of video! Want to have some of my learning documents. If you want this plane check it out here! bit.ly/3VUccWJ
And use code Mach3RC to get 10%off!!!
I’d like to see a review on the 2000 mm DH Beaver w floats!
@@jonathonparth7410 great suggestion!! I’d love to review that plane too!
Love how honest you are about your flying shortcomings, so very relatable.

So happy you enjoyed! I’m definitely going to bring a rod haha. Thanks for watching & more on the way!
You need to make a rescue RC Boat!
Good stuff…can’t wait to maiden my float plane!
I want to make a rescue boat so bad!! I think that’d be awesome. Haha, thanks for watching, I’m excited for your maiden too!!
Great landing (watering)? At the end . Great video I love the honesty and imtegrity , Subscribed and liked
Dude your videos are insane
That look great!!!! Awesome landings!!!!!
Thanks Brad!! We’re out there trying to get better! 💪🏻
Cool video mr. Love those floatplans

@@Mach3RC thank you my friend!
Did you ever end up putting a spectrum receiver in this plane?

Haha you jinxed yaself so many times man 😂😂😂🤦♂️you need an rc boat for recovery ❤❤❤send in the calvary 🔥🔥🔥👌🏼
Hahaha I KNOW!! 😅I want an RC boat so bad

@@Mach3RC Thank you very much I appreciate it :)
Don't get the battery fully low it will ruwen the battery
You’re right, I was being naughty!!
Hey I think your floats are wrong side the lip should be inside Rudder on left.
Ya know what, I think you're right!! Hahaha
I just flipped them around haha. I appreciate your comment!
All good 👍
will it be okay to land this plane in saltwater?
I’ve never flown off saltwater. I don’t know too much about that as I don’t have any saltwater near me. I’d watch some videos on rc flying off saltwater!
Nice plane! Does it can move backward??
Thank you! This one does not have reverse thrust unfortunately
@@Mach3RC oh.. that's bummer... look so nice though. thanks for knowing me!
Man, at $335 RTF kit. I’d be swimming out there to get it
Should be quite a bit cheaper than that! Especially with my code. But I hear ya!
That very brief moment of contemplation before you took it back up the last time 😂🫣
My brain said no.. my heart said yes
I fly without rudder tho 😂😅 all my jets and other planes
I typically do too. Trying to learn what it’s all about 😅
@@Mach3RCyesyes same here!! Rudder is for driving to the Runway 😂
Blame it on the carp.
Dang carp jumped and flipped my plane! I like that
Don't land or take off for a way!
Trying my best! Need some more practice 🤓
U will not see it
👀
who shit in the water?
