- Very first time using a descent receiver. Spectrum NX 10 and first time flying a plane with AS3X with Safe Technology. A completely new experience.
The build was very fast. The radio set up was a little more challenging being that it was my first time with all the new technology.
Just got back from over 10yrs of not flying so it’s all new to me.
Had a really hard time taking off but finally got it right.
Found it’s an extremely easy to fly plane. E-Flite did an incredible job with this plane. It really flies on rails.
Things I really love about this plane:
1. Beautiful scale details 😍
2. Very agile. Very responsive
3. Flies really fast
4. Flies really slow
5. Reverse throttle
Absolutely love this plane. Always wanted to have a P-51 Mustang and I couldn’t be more happy with this one.

Let me know what kind of videos youu would like to see. 😁
P-51
You did fine after you got it off the ground. Smaller warbirds on grass= many prop bites.Slower acceleration is the key. I never use safe to take off either ( Limits the elevator )
Yeah I noticed. I don’t use it anymore. It was my first time with a new receiver that I want use to and with a plane with a spectrum receiver. But now it flyers beautifully😁
It's a good idea to switch to a higher rate elevator travel for take off & hold full up elevator when starting to move off from stationary (the propeller wash & up elevator will really help to keep the tail pinned down) Gradually increase the throttle & control the torque with rudder. As soon as it's rolling happily, you MUST ease off on the elevator, let the tail rise naturally, keep increasing the throttle & it'll be airborne in no time. Once you can combat the nose over tendencies, they are a complete joy to take off, fly & land!!
And if it always wants to turn left when powering up & starting your take off run, hold a bit of right rudder to always be one step ahead of it. It can be a lot to remember but it will be habit soon!
Thank you. I’ve gotten better at it doing what you just said. And I absolutely love the plane. Still hard labs some times without nose overs🤦🏻😭
@@MrGoat73 yes thank you. This definitely herpe helps a lot
Well done! I flew for the first time today after about 11 years. Hope to get back into this hobby.
Bravo. Welcome back. I just got back after 10 years. Everything is new to me now. But I’m super happy to be back. I’m not leaving this time. What are you flying?
@@Elircplanes Funny that you should ask. I'm currently fying a bunch of antiques. Stuff from between 2007-2012. Like Hobbyzone Super Cub trainer and an Apprentice that I bought and never flew. Also, the Eflite Pawnee and a dozen or so others. The stuff that there aren't parts available for any more. I flew my old Parkzone Trojan today. My favorite plane. Didn't realize that the elevator up travel was out of whack. It got about 20 feet off the ground and descended when i went into a turn. I was flying low rates and didn't have enough up elevator and it skipped off the ground and broke the wing off at it's mounts. I'm hoping that a little CA glue and gauze will be the remedy. Won't be the first time. Love your Mustang! I'm a big fan of the scale stuff.
I love the Trojan. E-Flite has a 1.1 yellow one that is so much fun and super easy to fly. I still have a Futaba radio somewhere in the garage. But I gues I can’t really use that anymore with the new stuff. And yes. Me too. I love the warbirds and the mustang has always been my favorite looking one. And after seeing the reviews on this one I just had to have it. Im so happy that I did.
Hopefully a little CA is all you need. God knows It’s put all of my birds together over and over again 🤦🏻♂️😂
@@Elircplanes Yea, CA has been my savior in several cases. Especially when I was first learning to fly. I've got a HZ Super Cub that weighs about 12 pounds because of all the CA in it. LOL!
@@boodaghost6896 I hear you. It does get you back and flying in no time at the field and saves you hundreds in buying the parts again.
The super cub is a cool plane
Lol I don't know how he managed not to break the propeller
Not this time. But I’ve gone through so many already. And note they are on back order so can’t even find one. So I’ve been flying it on different props lol
Omg I'm sorry to say I'm happy im not the only one. I did this yesterday all day and never got her up. Fly many planes and never had this issue. I guess its get her rolling then throttle more keeping the rudder adjusted was the answer?
I’m sorry. I learned that you have to throttle up shower
Nice to see some new south Florida rc pilots 👍👍👍
😁 it’s so much fun. Where do you fly?
@Eli RC Planes I'm in Bonita springs Florida I belong to a club in cape coral
@@JustEnoughRC very cool. I’m gonna have to come visit you guys some time.
You done good congrats on the flight great job enjoy it 😀😃👍👍
Thank you. It’s such a fun plane. It really flies on rails
@@Elircplanes I have the corsair from eflite 800mm flys great too up elevator slow run out and when tail comes up let it float up I use the take off flaps if no winds ua-cam.com/video/WNJaHam1ndQ/v-deo.html forgot to bring my head strap for my go pro 11
@@SlowFlyer85 thank you. That should help a lot. It’s hard on some of these rough grass some times😁
Congrats to the pilot 👍👍
Thank you. Absolutely love this plane. One of my favorites war birds.
Do you fly?
What do you fly?
@@Elircplanes it looks nice and yes I do fly but I like the arrows p51 because it s cheaper 😂
@@Elircplanes I came across your channel and honestly like it ,good videos
Yes Brother it’s a beautiful plane !!!! Practice…Practice….Practice. I can take off great flying is fair, but got to practice touch and go’s .👍🏻✌🏻🖖🏻😃 New Sub !!!!!
Yes. When I’m on a flat surface it’s fine. This field is really bumpy so it’s hard for it
Yo @EQ RC!
👍
That’s one tough little bird. That grass wasn’t helping you at all. Once you did a gradual accelerated takeoff and got off the ground you did awesome 👍🏼
Thank you. Definitely love the plane. 😁🙌🏼
was NOT a Bad Day 4 You and The P51 D!!! Id say that's just fine !!! Ima beginner 5 Months.. Great aero skills...once it got airborne! Great Sprit! Change title: MAIDEN Accomplished!
Well thank you. And the reason I titled it that is because I nosed it so many times taking off. And nosed it every time I landed it🤦🏻
@@Elircplanes I've had/have 3 of the FREMEGO 400 front prop warbirds.(.I drill 'em into the Ground Pretty good) Now have 1.1 M AEROSCOUT. Butter. No front Prop. its gonna be a Major learning lesson when I upgrade to a Big warbird. Lots Of Prop strikes..Im sure! Order Extras, Dave! Keep up good work...and to your son
My son for the aeroscout the day I taught him how to fly with the little 400mm p-51D a friend buddy boxed him. He did pretty good. I would suggest a good warbird to start with is the E-Filte T-28 1.1 BNF it’s super easy to fly and super fun
love this plane good job saving the prop. and if u need more videos to watch i have lots of this plane. I have the cripes and june nite. now im switching the esc and upgrading some things to 6s.
oh! wait till you get head tracking fpv and fly that for real. you will be really hooked
That’s really cool. Would love to make this a 6s plane. It would be insane to fly this with that. And I have put a camera in the cockpit but not FPV just a GoPro. Can’t wait to see it. Definitely let me know.
@Eli RC Planes i started with using a gopro also, then i tried fpv and now im loving it. ❤️ goodluck and hope you post the videos from the plane.
@@Streetreaper89 that’s crazy. I’m not sure that I could do the Fpv I’m so afraid
@Eli RC Planes im sure u can. i was also super nervous. But i just went for it with the encouragement of a couple friends. 👌👌 i have got faith in your abilities either way.
@@Streetreaper89 ok I’m going to have to try that then
I want it!! How much does it cost? Thanks enjoy
Here’s the link where you can find it. It’s only $349 got the BNF version. Let me know if you get it and how you like it. 😁 www.horizonhobby.com/product/p-51d-mustang-1.2m-bnf-basic-with-as3x-and-safe-select-%E2%80%9Ccripes-a%E2%80%99mighty-3rd%E2%80%9D/EFL089500.html
Safe mode limits full up elevator. Should have taken off with no Safe from grass. Also adding power too quickly.
Yeah. This was very new to me so I came to find out what you say is true and exactly why I failed multiple times. Finally got it down. 🙌🏼🙌🏼
@@Elircplanes I struggled with her for a while. I'm used to jets that go straight. But it has been my constant goal to master the Mustang. I'm glad you are sorting it out.
Thank you. I do love this Mustang. I have to put it together again. Last time I took it out I had a brain fart
🧠 💨
I was just cruising and chilling with it at low altitude, which it looks so beautiful, and flew it into a tent we had. 😳
@LoveRC mustangs are my favorite war birds
Not bad after all the years not flying
Thank you I’m so glad I came back to the hobby
Super excited, try that with a 90” 60cc then talk
I’ve never flown a gas plane. I’m afraid of them lol
@@Elircplanes don’t be afraid of it learn about it. Try watching some Frank Tiano Top Gun videos of the old school guys you will get a much better understanding. Or Byron originals videos from the 80’s and 90’s. Enjoy yourself have fun
@@simonetaormina7080 don’t get me wrong. I would love to fly gas. I’m just afraid of it 😂 I take a lot of risk when flying which means I crash a lot. It’s not the same to crash a little light weight foamy than a very heavy plane full of gas😬
When you start in the hobby don’t listen to the old people that have been flying for years tell you that everything you do is wrong because that’s why a lot of people stop flying. Everyone flys different
That's dumb, it's called learning from people who know what they're doing so you don't destroy your first 3 planes and quit the hobby out of frustration.
There's the right way and then there's how this guy did it. He'll get better but it's obvious he doesn't know how to fly a warbird.
I actually started flying in 2001. Flew for a few years and stopped. Then started again in like 2006 and stopped. Started again in 2012 and stopped. And just started again in 2023. Haven’t stopped since. But to their credit. I do need their knowledge and wisdom. Especially since everything has changed so much since 2012. It was all new to me. So any constructive criticism is appreciated. 😁
Yeah. I’ve destroyed many planes even when I’ve known what I’m doing. And as I said. I’ve been learning a lot from the veterans. So feedback is always welcome from someone with way more experience. I do take a lot of risks which leads to a lot of crashing. But it also leads to a lot of learning. So I’m grateful for the knowledge from the veterans and the knowledge obtained from all my crashes. 😁
No bueno my friend. Sorry about that
It’s so good. I learned. 😁
Ha ha ha ha ha lol😄😁😅😂🤣 the foamy , everyone is a pilot. China even managed to destroy one of the greatest skilled and engineering hobbies out there
I take it you don’t like the foamies. 🤔😂
They’re fun tho. You brake them. You can glue it right at the field and keep flying😁
@@Elircplanes it’s cool guy no problem and it’s not that I don’t like foamy , but it has taken craftsmanship and the engineering out of the hobby. Like you say , if you crash you can glue it back together. That’s exactly what I here from guys at my own field. The same, they would have never tried this hobby if they had something real to lose. But hey you have fun enjoy. Don’t mind me I’m an old man.
@@simonetaormina7080 that is true. 💯 they basically commercialized the hobby and made millions by doing so because now anybody can fly without having to spend the time to craft a beautiful plane that you’d be proud to take to the field and say. Wow. I built that🥰
@@simonetaormina7080oh no! now we have more people in our hobby now and nicer amenities at our club because we have more people paying dues! It’s the worst man.
😂😂😂ikr
Personally I love the fact that everything is simple. Faster. You don’t spend hours building something. Then crashing it and can’t fly until you fix it days later or even more because you have to order parts and start from scratch some times😂
Turn off the stupid music. then we can hear the plane.
Learning as I go. I’m new to creating content. So if you want more videos without the music I have other videos. Come check them out. Thank you for the feedback. Trying to create good content you want to see
too big to take off on grass
Came to find out it didn’t help that the grease was tall. But also taking off a little shower helps a lot
