    If you live on the coast with cliffs going down to the beach or inland with steep hillsides, its slope soars really well. You can keep it in the air for an hour if you don't crash. It's great for learning how to slope soar.

      just got one a few days ago, haven’t flew a RC plane since I was in elementary grade in 2006 with a cheap Walmart plane , lost quite a few of them because they were hard to fly but my first flight with this plane I landed at my feet after a good 2 min flight, I was completely shocked how much easier this plane is to fly. im absolutely hooked now, practicing on a golf course before I hit the slopes but I can’t wait to soar for an hour you got me 10x more pumped to get better!! Aloha 🤙🏽

    It's a fun plane, I got one as my third plane after of the 400mm warbird type planes, I liked how I could actually fly it without the gyro.
    This will bind the same transmitters as those and to a multiprotocol radio like the TX16s as well.

    Love what you and the camera crew do for the hobby!!! Except now I’m going to have to get this for my 8 year old grandson 😉 lol
    BTW…….You are following in Johnny Morris’s footsteps. If you’re not familiar with Johnny Morris, he started by selling fishing tackle out of the back of his father’s liquor store. BOOM! Years later he starts a company called Bass Pro Shops becoming one of the biggest influencers in outdoor sporting goods.
    Continue on your path, the hobby will be better for your commitment and hard work. Thank you!

    Great video as always , so cool to see family flying and a great fun little plane to fly , meanwhile I'm sitting here on a fine dry day but like nearly everday this year crazy winds ( west of Ireland ) . This is the extent of my flying today (watching this video) but such a great video it put me back in a good mood. Thanks.

      P.S. Do you ever slope soar? If you don't know what it is, you might want to look into it. If it's windy a lot, that can be a GREAT way to keep from going nuts waiting to fly, and it's really a whole-nother "thing" - you gotta try it!

    warbirds are still the way to go cause your buddy won't hurt your plane. This thing won't stand up to abuse like they do, and warbirds are really fun and easy.
    On the other hand I like the size of this. vision is definitely an issue with me and other people my age. They could make a 800 mm warbird from EPO it would be the greatest thing ever. probably your best bet rather than buying one of these is two war birds, always more fun with friends. it should be noted that the P5 one and the Corsair are totally different than every other warbird and those are the two you want. I have two of the older models t28 and spitfire both are super fun but a beginner will enjoy the P51/Corsair flight characteristics due to the newer flight controller
    I like what you do with your channel and you help people grow and stay in the hobby.
    Unfortunately spectrum radio ecosystem forces people out of the hobby and I know you're a big proponent of those systems.
    NX is already obsolete tech wise IX is behind the curve but it's a lot closer but the prices are insanity.
    I've heard you say that open TX is hard to learn and too much trouble and it just isn't. for the fans of Brian's great channel every single awesome plane or heli he flies can easily be programmed and flown by superior much much cheaper radios, and some of these toy grades are a great place to start with that language and tech. My opinion but I speak from experience. And I'm old and not techy. 🤷👍🏻

    • @BrianPhillipsRC
      @BrianPhillipsRC  5 місяців тому

      This plane DOES exactly that! It's the same foam at the 400-500mm Warbirds. It's not brittle at all. In fact, I think it's more resilient than some, since it's got a pusher prop configuration. BUUUUUUT, it's not as powerful, which is a bummer. I'd like to see this with a BRUSHLESS on 2S

    • @gravityfuzz
      @gravityfuzz 5 місяців тому +2

      @@-BUFFALOMan I've flown no gliders off of water yet but a pusher prop is a good start. I think the drag will be too much for this little plane. The Ranger 2000 will need pontoon floats on the wing tips otherwise you'll look like a broken winged bird flapping around in the drink. Take a look at the Albatross wing floats for an idea. Good luck. Post a video if you get it going please.

    Do you think it will land on the water and get it to come back to you?

    It's way too small and screamy for me. Larger airplanes are a better bang for the buck. But I guess people purchase these small planes because of the weight limit (250gr), especially in the U.S.
