    I do love his rotating exhaust, making sure top spread the mess evenly across the right side of the plane. 😁
    And don't worry about the idle, Tim don't know how to use it anyway. 😂

    Now that was absolutely fantastic!!!!!! I thought the wings were going to get ripped off of that plane for roughly 7/8s of that video!! Brilliant flying! Nothing like the nitro mills

    Great flying! And super plane. Thanks for the smiles. I'm in the UK and find it difficult to stay positive some of the time, and you guys always help put a smile on my face. So thank you Bruce and buddies. ☺

    @cougar02000 2 роки тому +4

    Tim's mantra, always fit model with an engine that is far too big, always use full throttle and never throttle back once throttle is open, except to land, always use full elevator to test wings and try to fold them, if model didn't crash first time then refuel and try repeat until you succeed.
    If all else fails, try a full throttle dive then use full up elevator, full rudder and full aileron that should shake up the model and test it's structural integrity.

    Hard to believe Tim didn't snap the wing on some of those stunts.....Good video!

  • @jo2lovid
    @jo2lovid 2 роки тому +11

    OMG, there must be a broom handle sized CF spar running the width of the wing. How else did they not fold when Tim "changed direction"?? And the tail feathers must be made from CF, cause they should have fallen off in some of those elevator movement changes.

    That puppy has a great spar in the wing, and a better than average servo for the elevator. Didn’t dare blink, as I expected to see a splat on a number of occasions. The camera work was exceptional to chase the wild flying, the vertical pulls were radical, with no advance warning. Good on ya Mate!

    almost dialed 911,,....11111 my heart was racing.
    not sure how it made it... and not returned to kit form.

    I was given one of these as an electric conversion. Looking at the weight of the motor on that thing, no wonder why mine doesn't fly right. I'm guessing my CG is way off, even though its on the marks. I'd say the marks are off. I need to mount the motor further out and add more nose weight.
