Before all, thanks a lot for all the family work. One of the best content I've seen for RC plane reviews! I appreciate the way you share your passion as simple as it is natural for you. A big love from France!
When I was young, my dad took my super cub flying (the one that comes with a nimh battery) out to fly and crashed it bad. He is an airline pilot. He bought me a new plane.
Well took the leap and picked one up. Had the maiden today. Only have 3s 2200 and all I can say is wow. Such a nice bird.first timer using gear and flaps. I love it 🤘
Just a thought, would it be possible to do a picture in a picture and record you transmitter and your flight so we can learn the movements of the gimbals and the plane?. That would be so cool and helpful to us beginner's.
Thanks, and yes, she was quite the grinder!!! Nall footage is coming soon ;) Megan has been hard at work on it. GREAT and LOTS of footage, but we're honestly not used to editing - LOL - everyone assumes we do, but we almost NEVER edit a video, we just put clips together with FFMEPG (it's free and easy to use)
My first plane are the Timber Evolution 1.5m and its amazing i can fly and land very well (i just have about 30 flight on this plane). Do you recomend this plane to the next step?
You could totally make this leap, but keep in mind, it's gonna be way more TORQUEeeee when you get on the throttle, and you'll have to counter this with rudder when you get the plane up on the mains, so for the first few flights, you might just "jank" it up into the air to keep it simple, and as you progress in your skills, you'll work on that. Otherwise, shouldn't be a problem. Go for it! bprc.me/P51
@@BrianPhillipsRC thanks so much Brian, your videos realy help me to understand the hobby because im from Patagonia, CHILE. The most souther place in the world!!! Here no body can help me to progress in the hobby. Thanks so much again!
Thanks for the great reviews! You always mention you do not know your flight time due to talk time. Why do you not setup the timer to only count when the throttle is above a specific amount like 20%?
We've heard this one a few times, but honestly, I don't want to crash for that convenience. Once I start flying, I fly with low throttle a lot, so I figure I'll be safer with the timer set to run as soon as I start flying. This is, of course, a preference thing... As for timers in general, they're going to be a thing of the past soon, with all the amazing and actually working telemetry data being shared back to us on the Tx.
Brian have you used full landing flaps on take off on this. Reason why I ask is I have been using take off flaps and where I fly it’s kind of a shorter run way. No issues yet but cut it close a few times not getting enough lift. I haven’t tried full flaps yet on take off
@@BrianPhillipsRC I haven’t tried landing flaps yet that’s why I was asking if you have. I normally use take off flaps. One time I forgot to use flaps on take off and boy what it a handful on a short runway. 😳
Hi Brian, watching your videos and learning! I'm a drone pilot, Part 107, and my first experience with R/C thus far was spending last summer on the HobbyZone Sport Cub S 2 RTF; this summer I have moved up to the Carbon Cub S 2 1.3 meter. I just purchased the Eflite FW-190 1.5 meter. I will not fly the 190 until I feel more proficient in the Carbon Cub. Is this a logical progression to the 190 in the fall or next spring? (I'm also a retired Army Aviator with 1100+ hours in the UH-1H Huey.)
There's nothing wrong with starting with the Valient. I do think there are even easier planes, BUT in terms of that type, it is a great choice! P-51 would be a great place to break into warbirds, but better to learn on a high wing, and slower plane, if possible. bprc.me/Valiant bprc.me/FMS_P51
Love your videos Brian. Keep up the great work. I even watch some of those 2-3 hour videos your famous for. Camera crew is the best in the business. One thing. Camera crew throw away that shirt he keeps wearing since the nineties.
how hard would it be to add fpv to something like this? ive put fpv on 1000mm fixed wings. but they were like a foam material and i just used a solder iron to cut out a bed for the vtx and camera.
Brian, how do you set up reverse thrust in these? I've got June Nite and the F4U-4. I see from your video a year ago that you had reverse thrust in the F4U-4. I just put that plane together. No where in the manual can I find anything about setting up reverse thrust. I've searched on line and haven't found anything else helpful other than people saying to change the wires on your motor. I don't have a backwards spinning prop! LOL! I just want to flip a switch on my NX8 and back taxi or shorten my landing roll when needed. Thanks for any help you can provide!
Dads an airline pilot. He says its way harder cause u can't tell ur speed, u can't feel the air, u gitta deduce everythinng, waaay less time to think (yes we also love rc planes. I have 6 in my apartment lol)
This one, but many will pick the F4U since they like that plane better (full scale). This one has a wider flight envelope, and that's one reason I LOVE it. BOTH GREAT!
Maybe its me, but i had the June Night version and was a boring slow plane in desperate need of low bounce wheels or landing gear with shocks... but.. i much prefer the Fms version
I never thought she was slow - were you flying on 3S? Agree about the need for some soft tires, since they're narrow, and tough to replace with Dubro Low Bounce, for instance.
Brian. Love the 1.2m warbirds. Hey, glad to see you and Megan at Joe Nall. What a treat that was. Look forward to seeing your highlights. Sure hope you and Megan can come back and see us. Your always welcome. 👋😉
It was awesome! We were honored to have some time with you, and so glad you setup our "meetings" with so many other great folks. We also very much appreciate the lunch, and definitely plan to make it up to you with a nice steak dinner some day, when you're up in our neck of the woods. You would LOVE flying here, if you like flying at Nall - it's very peaceful here ;) Thanks again Brad! You were one of our favorite parts of Nall!!!!
Forget the Hardware Store for Touch Up Paint...Crafts Stores carry a million different colors of water based paints for 99 cent to 1.99 for enough touch up paint to last you a lifetime
Ive got the june nite. Great plane. Kinda sucks horizon did away with easy pay. Its was the only way for me to fit these planes in my budget most of the time.

@ 30:34 - check out the lightning in the background - so cool! It's easy to miss, if you're not looking LOW, just behind the trees.
Always a must watch before i decide to get a plane or not
Thanks so much for the content BPRC!
Thanks you so much!
When I was young, my dad took my super cub flying (the one that comes with a nimh battery) out to fly and crashed it bad. He is an airline pilot. He bought me a new plane.
Nice! At least he got you another one ;)
Using a small strip of the rubber drawer liner in the battery tray works like a charm to keep the battery from slipping in that tray. Nice flying man!
Well took the leap and picked one up. Had the maiden today. Only have 3s 2200 and all I can say is wow. Such a nice bird.first timer using gear and flaps. I love it 🤘
She does a LOT faster on 4S....FYI....but yes, WOW is a good expression ;) Told you, you'd love it!!!!!!!
Thanks, and we enjoy your sense of humor also. You're not droning.
Thank you, and so glad you get it!!! I try to catch myself, if I'm getting too far off topic, but it's usually way too late - LOL!!!
Just a thought, would it be possible to do a picture in a picture and record you transmitter and your flight so we can learn the movements of the gimbals and the plane?. That would be so cool and helpful to us beginner's.
Many others have done it, and do it routinely. When and if we ever get large enough to have an actual "Camera Crew" - LOL - then we can do it ;)
@@BrianPhillipsRC your present camera crew does a great job. thanks for your hard work.
How you set up the reverse on the controller?????? That’s amazing
We show this on the UNBOX, BUILD, RADIO SETUP video, if you want to follow along. It's in the playlist for this plane ;)
Great video! Even better prop strike lol! Can't wait for the Joe Nall footage! Wish i could've been there. Next year. 👍
Thanks, and yes, she was quite the grinder!!!
Nall footage is coming soon ;) Megan has been hard at work on it. GREAT and LOTS of footage, but we're honestly not used to editing - LOL - everyone assumes we do, but we almost NEVER edit a video, we just put clips together with FFMEPG (it's free and easy to use)
The camera crew is very trusting of your flying ability on some of those inside passes! Nice job both of you.

If you want me to wear a different shirt, send one to me, and I'll give it a shot. Email (see the About tab)...and we can coordinate details.
@@BrianPhillipsRC Great!!!
i love this P-51. Flies smooth, but when I take-off, flaps always nose it over
I too, as you could see, have a bit of trouble taming the 4S power ;) I guess, practice makes perfect?
@@BrianPhillipsRC yes,
That's on my list too like the P51 great job 👍👍
Thanks ;)
how hard would it be to add fpv to something like this? ive put fpv on 1000mm fixed wings. but they were like a foam material and i just used a solder iron to cut out a bed for the vtx and camera.
Not at all. It would be super easy, and fun, but we can't share aerial footage ;(...
@@BrianPhillipsRC Why can't you share it? Or do you have a seperate channel where you do FPV and this is sarcasm?
What camera you use to take this wonderfull videos?, thanks!

I just got me one
Awesome! enjoy!
VERY NIIICE 👌
