  • I've been on a bit of a race plane kick lately and so I was really excited to see the new E-flite UMX P-51 Voodoo come into the shop. The model looks awesome and flies great! Power is a 3s 300 mah battery which provides very long flight times as well. I can't help it, I always Geek out over these UMX airframes, it's like flying a plastic model sized RC, haha! #p51mustang #raceplane #scalemodel

    Great video Chris . Thanks for posting. A little pocket rocket! . I was surprised how stable it flys , didn’t look twitchy at all . This looks like a trunk take along model. CU out there 👍

    Great video Chris! I fly UMX almost always.. A big plus about the P51 frame is that they are almost indestructible. I still have every P51 I've ever bought. I'll be buying this today.

    Just a heads up for anyone that buys this!! If you know hold to solder then please solder on a xt30 lead on the plane. You can use multiple rdq lipo batteries that fit. Up to a 4s 380mah but you gotta snap off two of the 4 props. And not to mention there is a much better power exchange through a xt30 vs the jst and less voltage sag.

    Chris thanks for posting this video. When the plane is flying can you turn off the background music so we can hear the plane? I know it's a small thing but it's nice to hear what the plane sounds like. If not it's cool, I know it's your channel.

    • @Thercgeek
      @Thercgeek  Рік тому

      I usually do on these reviews but the airplane was so quiet that it literally was just dead air when it was off in the distance. So I kept the music going in this case.
