#rc #airplane #husky
Im a sub for all the channels you mentioned and I just wanted to say this.
The RC Saylors just literally fly the plane and take the affiliate link cash and they are done, that will lead to "one and dones" all day long and is damaging the hobby. There is no instructional contents at all. They do top ten beginners planes but dont show people how to do the simple (at least it is to me now, thanks to you) things like, binding, building, repairing, radio progamming, charging the batteries, finding the CG and a whole host of other things which beginners really need. I just feel they are more interested in selling the plane than selling the hobby. I think thats the most succinct way to describe your fantastic work.
You sell the hobby, the Saylors sell the plane. I feel your content is more valuable to the hobby as a whole.
When I started I had had a fifteen year break from RC cars using 27MHz futaba radios and crystals. 2.4GHz and also 868MHz were alien to me. We were using NiCad batteries and brushed motors, you get the picture. I always wanted to fly aircraft but it was way out of reach then for me.
You introduced me to the Volantex/Eachine P-51 and I realised that it was attainable to me. I moved onto other more hobby grade models like the UMX Timber which basically helped me to learn to fly manually. I then got the 1.5m Timber which your videos showed me how to build properly. The only thing I do differently to you is I went the OpenTX route rather than Spektrum. I'm heavily into FPV planes too (which OpenTX is almost a must for) which is different but you helped me add LED nav lights for FPV night flying (not for my benefit but for visibility by other aircraft on the whole). Where Im at now is, I have built a ZOHD Dart250G, wired it up with LEDs, a flight controller, a 4K split fpv camera, video transmitters etc, programmed it using iNav with telemetry on screen just like a jet fighter HUD and flying it long range out to 5 miles, sometimes at night (not your thing I know, but the basics started with you) A massive thanks to you and Meghan. A Paypal donation will be coming soon. Merry Christmas to you and your family too. DONT CHANGE A THING. UA-cam BE DAMNED.
Your comment is very much appreciated! We work really hard to do all the things you said, and we DO want to sell planes too, but never to the detriment of the hobby, and it's reassuring to hear that you and others are seeing this.
You know from your short 15 year break...when you came back, it was almost unrecognizable! Same for me, except I was only watching my Dad fly 20 years ago ;)
So glad you're with us, and thanks again!
Much respect to Brian Phillips and the camera crew. I don't think ppl realize how much work these guys put into each and everyone of these videos. Hats off to you guys!
Thanks Drone Pilot 260! We appreciate you saying this and are honored to be serving the RC community in our special way!
You guys make it worth while!
You are soooo right. They are amazing & each presentation sooo detailed.
It's their job isn't it .. that's how they make $$ so yeah of course they put work in !
Love the videos and can’t get enough! Watching you got me addicted to this hobby. Big thanks to the best camera lady in the biz as well!
Massive respect to both of you and the work you put in to helping new people. It's great that you go through everything with every plane. Keep up great work 👍
Thanks Scott! Glad you're here with us!
Steep learning curve, in this hobby, and it's an honor to help get b
people fired up again, or for the first time!
@@BrianPhillipsRC Oh totally your reviews are so in depth and as soon as I start flying my bigger planes I will definitely revisit the video for those planes. Great job and happy new year to you both
You folks are really helpful. Batteries were very foreign to me and I'm grateful that you go over this stuff with some regularity. Same with the radios. After seeing the same things in many of your videos, it's becoming easier and easier to understand. I've watched hours of your videos on planes I have no intention of ever assembling or flying, but the process can be used from model to model so the information is good! You are very good teachers. Thanks for the help.
obrigado brian e Megan pela ajuda que dão a novos pilotos como eu. BOM TRABALHO
Thank you Brian & Megan. Your talents, help and dedication are HUGE. God bless. Great video as always. Love this plane.
Thanks again!
The training format your channel uses is what sets it apart from the rest. I ALWAYS watch one of your videos on a particular plane I'm planning to buy. Very informative, even when its advice on gloves LOL !!!
Thanks Carl! Glad we can help you make your final decision on planes you're interested in ;)
Great Vid. thanks for putting out all the great content!! This one has now got me wanting you to do a STOL day video and bring out all the BIG tire/STOL planes you have to see them side by side and maybe back to back flights of each.
I try not to side-by-side, since there's such a huge difference in price...but maybe after a second thoughts?
I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS ONE! Thanks for posting. Love your vids bud. Thank you!
Thanks Anthony!
hey Brian& Camera Crew, to you and your family, Happy Happy New Year!!! much love &brespect always!! and thanks for all you do!!!
Thanks Antoinne!
Went with the standard vs. Ultimate and love it. Perfect for the scale flying style is like to do. Great video as always.
I think 6S is INSANE amounts of power!
If you ever hanker after more power, I think people generally move too quickly to 5S and 6S packs. I fly on 3700 60C 4S - just a little number crunching and you see it can deliver 220A. I've seen reports of the rudder being pulled off if you run 5S on the standard. I wonder what output power that was propped and motored for. I think the standard is around 600W.
@@BrianPhillipsRC perfect for lofting a GoPro style cam!
Really love the enthusiasm, best RC planes channel on this platform!
Hey Brian, a few days ago on facebook someone asked a question on one of the Hobby Fight groups that not many people were able to answer for him but a number of them suggested looking up you and your Videos for the answer!! So, what you are doing is getting the attention people need.
Thanks! Glad you're here now ;)
Welcome!!!
Thanks, it's a fun flyer... put a set of skies on my 2nd one our lake froze over 2 weeks ago.
Cool!
This thing is BEAUTIFUL
She sure is!
Brian, Megan. All what you do don't go un noticed. Lot of sacrifice it takes to make what you do look so easy. Remember this. DONT FORGET TO HAVE FUN. TAKE A VACATION. I know quite a few, what some would call "influencers" -personally. Everybody has their thing. I knock no UA-camR at all. All work hard in the RC business in their unique ways. I support all that I can when I can. The thing you mention about life being short is REAL. I lost my Mother to Cancer just before Thanksgiving this year. There are other folks I know that have had similar experiences as mine this year. Give the kids and your four legged kids a hug for me. Family is precious. Hope to meet you fine folks someday. Remember, I mentioned this before. The invitation is still there.... You are always welcome to come to Triple Tree Aero (home of Joe Nall) here in Woodruff, SC. All you need is to bring the clothes on your back. I got the planes, radio, battery, etc.... :-)
Thanks, and I too lost my Mom to Cancer, only I was about 10 years old. Time is NOT on your side, so we have to make the most of it.
I'm at PPG training this week ;) I kited my paraglider back and forth up and down the field and was able to reverse without major issues. I got dragged once - that was "super fun" - LOL, but what doesn't kill you makes you stronger, right?
Anyway, Joe Nall would be real cool, but don't know for sure if we're going to be going or not. Megan and I are looking at the possibility of getting an RV Style camper trailer, so we can take advantage of some of these events. How cool that would be! But realistically, probably won't happen so long as I have to report to my "day job"....even though I have 5 weeks of vacation, I still have a really hard time getting far enough ahead to take more than a week or so "off from UA-cam".
Thanks for your support!
@@BrianPhillipsRC I hear you my friend. Sorry for your loss. Especially at that age. God bless. ❤️
Brian, I agree on the squishy tires. You can't even find them they're all rock hard. I fly on the same dirt road I grew up on and we always deflated our bicycle tires to improve the ride. Im thinking of making a circle pattern on CAD, then drilling large holes in the tire to see if I can soften them up. There are also chemicals that will soften foam, but that's just experimenting.
I did that once only by hand ;) Worked okay...
well done, great video and top flying, that just leaps of the ground, goes up like a home sick angel
Yes it does! Nice analogy! "Homesick angle" :)
Thankyou so much this is incredibly helpful
Glad it was helpful! Thanks!
Brian, I love watching your videos. Iv spent hours watching your stuff. As a result my wife was privileged to see a couple thousand dollars leave our account. Not sure if your a great person, or the worst person iv ever met 🤣. Love the detail and how much knowledge of every model you share. If I'm looking for a new model, I ALWAYS look for your videos as they are the most in depth and informative. Thanks to you and your wife for taking time to do this. You guys are awesome.
Thank you, ( LOL - Not sure if your a great person, or the worst person iv ever met 🤣) - Amazing!!!!! ;) Loved it
I have the original Husky and am impressed with performance on 4S. Dubros would be nice in 4.5 to 5" size. Appreciate all the time you put in. I get it how difficult it must be with work and hobby competing...oh, and parenthood. You are filling a necessary gap for these companies, one they should be filling quite frankly. People need to see the details to make a good decision. If I could offer any advice to you at all, it would be that suggesting a taildragger as a first plane really should happen only with understanding take off roll dynamics prior to first flight. Keep up the good work. Now if Northern Illinois weather would get out of this long funk!
I'm in Illinois now, training for PPG. Weather will suck tomorrow, at least that's what the usually wrong weather man says
First let me say I love your channel I love the long videos I think it's a crime that UA-cam tries to limit people to shorts. Secondly love the way you snuck Jennifer on camera during this taping!!
shhhhh - Don't tell Megan (my wife and "camera crew") about "Jennifer" - she'll be pissed!!!
@@BrianPhillipsRC crap was afraid I got her name wrong. Don't tell her she slapped the crap out of me.... And I'm going to grab me one of those husky ultimates soon as funds allow I love airplanes that fly slow like me.. I'm 63 started doing this in 1984 boy have things changed since then.
This thing is crazy...it kind of makes me wish I would got this instead of the bigfoot. Thanks as always for all you do Brian!!
Both are good, but I think the Bigfoot 1.3m is amazing too. This plane is much bigger, and very nice too!
Hey there team, I came to this post out of order, I dont normally miss your productions, (Thrump voice) ' Which are truly epic '. Anyway ,who misses the squishy tyres, not me...
Thanks Philip ;)
I couldn't believe my eyes when you took off the grass before hitting the concrete 🤯
She has UPS!
AWESOME plane and another great video Brian and camera crew ! Man that would be a great plane for areo-towing . :}
Yeah! So much power!
I have the galaxy s22 ultra. It's an amazing phone. Camera is exceptionally awesome.. love the vids.. Camera Crew yoyr doing a great job.. 👍
I just bought emcotec 8way wing connector. Came in a Hacker branded bag. The corners of the plug need to be shaved off with a Dremel, but it's not a dramatic amount, maybe 1mm and it's turned a 6 plug connection with label ready and fiddling with small cables into a 2 plug exercise without faff.
NICE! Good call ;)
Another great review Brian, I have the 4s version. It suits me down to the ground as I share my Batteries with my Turbo Timber, Cherokee and Maule.
Oh!.... Your right about the Tyres, it need Dubro.
Happy new year to you and your Family 🙂
Thanks Martyn! Big squishy ones ;)
Exactly, I put 4.5 inch on 🙂
great video and a great plane,I have the standard and love it,thanks to Dan's wife for making this happen,Go Hobby Zone(thanks Dan for coming on-board with Team Phillips
Megan and I are very happy that the great people at HobbyZone.com decided to get back with us! So far, super happy to be involved with them!
I'm still using lemonRx in any non-eflite plane. you turned me on to those. Nice flap work!
Cool, thanks - LemonRx was my go-to, and love the simplicity, and I never had an issue with the 7ch with stabilization, but I never got into the stabilizer PLUS (DSMP) I could never get it working...but that's neither here nor there.
Glad you like them. They are super cheap too!
Lemon Rx at Amazon - amzn.to/34Zehs9
@@BrianPhillipsRC I do use the plus (I guess I'm still Chicken 🐔) but I find to get the gyro mode to work I have to put the plane in a slight climbing attitude when binding.... Weird.
Thanks for the link. I'm picking up a non-stab and a micro type.
So who else thinks he sounds like jack black? Love the videos and if the wife was okay with me buying this plane I would.
Good work a nice flyer, happy new year. :-)
Thanks, you too!
Thanks for the vidio Team Phillips. After 30 years getting back into the hobby. You guys have been great helping me re understand all the changes. I was going to buy a turbo timber evolution till I saw this. I have a husky pup running around the house so I have to get this one. One question. Can I run 4000 6s or do I have to stay with 3200. Thanks for the videos
Should be fine on 4000mAh, but if you go bigger than I did, you may need to do a little carving...which is not a huge deal so long as you don't get too aggressive and cut through structure.
@@BrianPhillipsRC Thanks for the info and thanks for the videos. Would have never figured out the new transmitters on my own
Amazing plane! I am hoping to get one soon!
You should! Great plane!!!

@@BrianPhillipsRC Do you have a link for the other one so that I can support the channel?
Beautiful plane Brian! Keep up the great vids! You should also do more vids with the carbon z cub.
I want to get her back out. Someone asked me to land on our roof, so I said I'd do it with my squishy tired Carbon Z Cub - keep your eye out for that gem, coming soon ;)
I'd tell people who consider buying the plain old 4S version, the Ultimate has significant upgrades that fix many of the weaknesses on that plane, not just power. The additional $60 gets you a far better plane, and is well worth it. Vector gyro, 6S capable, higher quality hinges, bigger metal servos, and overall better build quality. You will not be disappointed with the Ultimate.
Nice! Glad you shared this! I assumed (incorrectly) it was JUST power system. Thanks!
@@BrianPhillipsRC the original Husky had the problem of being too powerful for its support systems. It would tear off the elevator and rudder, and strip the servos because the surfaces were too large. People would upgrade the motor and the plane would tear itself to pieces. Thats why the Special Edition was made, and the Ultimate followed that to be 6S capable because lets face it, 5S Lipos arent used much.
Flags are good, on stationary flags the blue field of stars always faces to the left as you face it. Only appears backward because of the direction of the plane.
Excellent 😍
Thanks!
Hey Brian, I love the length and detail in your videos, thanks for taking the time to produce them.
Would you consider a video fitting an AR637 to a Husky and see how the AS3X improves flying in windy conditions?
It would be very similar, but I would do it if I didn't already have the Vector...
That is a gorgeous plane look at that landing gear I wish I would had started with that one looks so durable 👨🏻✈️🇺🇸👍
For sure!
The reason you don't see many black foam on planes is because the suns heat destroys the foam it by bumping the surfaces. Did it to one of mine wherever there was that flat black paint.
I see
I love that plane with all of my heart ❤️ I have 2 of them. You got to try the Dubro tires on that bird WoW it’s awesome
I think the squishy tired would be nice ;)
We love squishy tires!
I love a big squishy paid myself ;)
Very much appreciate the team effort on explanations and camera shots. The instructions are lame regarding the light plug. Thanks for explaining. The wing mounting stinks, should be 1/4 Turn locking studs like Draco with longer cables like you mentioned. No ones going to remove these wings every trip to the field. Thank you so much for this video.
Thanks! Glad you found the tips and explanation to be helpful!!!
Brian, I was watching when you said, you did not know where to find the ball link pliers. Thay can be found at most of tour
hobby links. Idea for you, to use the ball link pliers to remove a link, loosen the screw till the pliers fit between the arm and
the link, put the big end in and the nub on the screw and squeeze.
Thanks Bill.
Hey! So I ordered the regular red husky, and I am wondering what battery to get for it. TheRcSaylors used a 2200mah 4s 14.8v battery. Is that the biggest that I should get for it, or can I get a bigger one?
I realy like all you'r video's!
Thanks! Glad to have you here!
Super
thanks, sure is!
So something I was curious on these bigger planes is if can get by without installing the wing struts in order for easy assemble and disassemble for transporting in car trunk? Like can you just leave the wing struts off in general and be fine for flying? Looking to get a bigger plane that can break down and setup quickly
I think some smaller models would be okay, but when they get BIG like this or the Carbon Z Cub SS 2.1m you'll need them, since they're functional. If you go without, the wings will flex WAY more.
nice plane :) greetings from germany
Thanks! Greetings from Iowa, USA :)
I think we need to get the "ground crew" in on the sticks!
She is not as driven as me ;)
Aren't the numatic Tires way heavier compared to the foam . Is the weight difference worth ground characteristics ? Just wondering your opinion on that
I do the tapey on the hood thing. But I stick the inside instead of the outside of the hood.
Good idea! I should do that too, then the paint won't work off! Thanks
I'll try to think of you when we do it again, and do a shout-out! Thanks for the great idea!
@@BrianPhillipsRC Yes! I've finally made a contribution to rc airplane ✈️ world, Lol. Except for the financial contribution from replacing demolished planes... ✈️🔥
Have you used the reflex stab that comes in some of the fms models? I'm looking at my first one in a 800 mm Corsair.
Nice video Brian and camera crew ! whish one you prefer ,the husky or the e flite carbon z cub Brian ? :)
Carbon Z Cub 2.1m, but its bigger and a long time favorite too
Hello Brian, love the videos. I am not sure where the lights connect into. I got sent a y cable out for the gear. Does it connect into the vector stabilisation. Thank you
You can plug in the LED's into any channel on the Rx (Y it in, or just use the bind port). Since the LED's are only "stealing" power from the circuit, and not being "controlled", doesn't matter ;)
@@BrianPhillipsRC Thank you for reply, managed to take her up and lost a wing on the maiden and wrote the poor girl off. I was told it was due to me putting to much stress on the wings (loops in full throttle) after seeing your videos I see that you done some avasive maneuvers in your husky ultimate. Have you heard of this happening as I have a new one on the way and very worried the same thing will happen.
Hey Brian, splendid video, and nice plane. My question to you is if you had the Eflite Carbon Cub, would this plane be much different? I am debating purchasing the Husky since it appears to fly so like the Cub.
I think the Carbon Z Cub SS 2.1m is quite a superior plane. If you flew them side by side, you would probably agree, but this 1.8m is a GREAT plane, but it's also heaver wing loading...thus my preference to the Carbon Z.
When you get a BIG and "light feeling" plane, it's a GREAT and EXCITING combo to fly. I only wish I could get my mitts on the Hangar 9 Carbon Cub SS ;)
Hello Brian, I am new to RC and have learned alot from your videos and would like to take the time to say Thank you. I have a question regarding your links. Santa (my wife) bought the NX8 and did not use the link as I had asked. I will be purchasing more items and noticed that it did not show that it was from your kink and have heard that it should? Also if the item is on sale do you still get the commission?
Larry, thanks. As for links, there are Master links if we don't have a specific item listed, but also when you follow one of the links, there are something like 30 days worth of "cookies" that tell Horizon (in this case) that you came from our direction. If you did, we will be credited for the sales.
We get a small commission for those who do following our links, but pleased understand, we want you to get what YOU love, and if you just want to throw a few bucks at us as a thank you, we have PayPal (one time) and Patreon (monthly).
Thanks for thinking of us, and please do follow the links, if you can ;)
Great video Brian, I just got a carbon cub ss for Christmas from my big sister, she rules. Question have you put lights on any of your cubs? If so do you have any recommendations of where to buy them? Thanks for your videos, your my dealer lol. I'm so hooked lol
I have not, but when you do I use motor winding wire (super thin and small) and steal voltage from one of the servo wires, but then you have to buy rolls of LED's or get individual LED's and sometime need current limiting resistors.
I have some older video showing the process.
I know I added LED's to the Horizon Hobby 1.2m Spitfire
@@BrianPhillipsRC thanks
Wow, like a Ferrari Bush Plane!
Truth!
This is so nice (the airplane)
sure is, thanks!
Nice reviews you Do on the RC Planes. Any reason you don’t test any HobbyKing Yak 11 ? Are you under contract with Spektrum or HH ?
I used to do more Hobby King stuff, but they don't really have an amazing reputation for a good reason, and we made a strategic decision to NOT work with them when they reached out to us.
Only issue is this and the special edition model it replaced come with rock hard tires! I added some dubro pneumatic tires to mine to fix it.
Totally! Well, harder to remove wings that ought to be...quick disconnections for cables is getting to be an expectation these days.
@@BrianPhillipsRC my other complaint is that! Running the wires for the wings kinda a pain!
I'll just revisit your video.
Thanks!
I should have got Vector for my Bigfoot that I have crashed three times. I on the flip side I purchased Real Flight 9.5S. I like Arrow...landing gear can take a beating....thanks Brian and your SPOUSAL UNIT. Just kidding Mrs. Phillips...just kidding. Ya'll be safe
I feel like Eddie Haskell on Leave it to Beaver
LOL - Thanks Buck ;) Glad you're here with us!
I have just purchased a 1800 husky the first model pnp. I have a receiver that came out of the turbo timber 1.5 bnf. Do you think I'd be able to install it in the husky without doing any reprogramming still waiting on a cable to be able to do it that way
If the surfaces move the same direction, you can use it for sure...but you have to make 100% sure they're moving the same direction and CORRECTING in the same direction. If not, you can use one of these on each channel that's going backward...

Hey Brian you and your wife does a great job I've been into RC's for a long time flying planes and I look to you cuz I have a spectrum nx10 and you help me set mine up all the time and you are great at your job just want to ask I got a 1800 mm husky ultimate what is the biggest 6s battery you would put in it the mAh & c rating
Whatever we used is what I would suggest, but to be honest, we usually use 5000mAh 6S 30C packs...and I think they're fine.
Thank you 😊 you are great.
Do you have a video on how you store your plane collection
I've had a few tours of the basement, but not for close to a year...we might need to do an update...
Seems the only Tundra Stol Plane that comes with Great Huge Soft n Light Wheels is the X-FLY Tasman
How do I assign Vector to a switch on my DX6 I have Bigfoot pnp and bought Vector module separate. My AR620 was already binded up with plane. Installed Vector. How do I assign vector to a switch. I tried assigning Gear channel to switch B. Gear channel is where vector is plugged in. Appreciate any help you can give me. I am trying to learn on my own but stuck, thanks.
All you have to do is actuate the three position switch and make sure it's changing on the channel you THINK it's changing on.
Watch my video and copy the part where I plug it into the AR620.
Here's a trick to help....scroll once to the RIGHT and see the MONITOR MODE. If you're not seeing a change in state when you flip switch B, then look at the monitor for GEAR (Channel 5) and you'll see it go up and down as you flip the switch...NOW plug in any old plain servo and see if the servo moves...then you've got confirmation that you're actually controlling that channel...NOW plug that channel into the "SBUS/AUX" on the Vector...and you'll have control of it...BUT MAKE SURE YOU HAVE IT PLUGGED IN RIGHT....this alone might be your problem.
@@BrianPhillipsRC Once I got over my brain fart I assigned Channel 5 to switch B. Then got confirmation by blinking lights on Vector module itself and moving wings.
Will further confirm tomorrow your input. I believe thou it's working. You and your wife rock sir. Thank U Channel rocks too!!!!
I would like to use my DX9 to fly my umx twin otter could you help with setup

I put 4.5" DuBro inflatables on mine almost immediately. What size tires are on yours stock? My Special Edition was 4.5" and I thought yours looked much smaller. Fantastic plane, so much power. If someone wants a big model that has all the STOL capabilities, this is a great choice.
You didnt show the Rudder Authority this plane has, its hilarious. It will do 360 degree spins inside its own length.
The wheel pants are another weak point, they often snap off on landings.
I noticed they snap off, but they DO go back on too ;)
I think the tries are about 4"
Tune into Tokyo!
LOL
Brian do you have the e"flite 2000 mm T=28 I would like to see you fly it ?
No, but I badly want one!!!! The Carbon Z T-28 is gonna be EPIC. I've already been promised one, when it's re-released at some point.
👍 Great review and flight session.
I had the standard edition, yes, it comes with support for 4S, and I wish to upgrade to 6S, would you able to recommend the Motor, ESC and Prop specifications ?
Yeah, by the way, I did modified mine with the Dynam's planes soft squishy tyres ☺️
I am told the Ultimate motor is a drop-in swap, motor mount-wise on the original Husky. I would put an 80 amp ESC in as well, with whatever 6S battery connector type you like. The Husky esc is an XT60 I think, and most 6S batteries are larger than that.
If you went Avian ESC, you could possibly go for reverse thrust!
Sno - yeah XT60 is a bit small for this echelon of power system
@@BrianPhillipsRC Thanks most likely I would go for XT90
@@snoriverrc3842 Thank you. But I would like know what is the model/make or specification of the motor, so I may source for an equivalent alternative from local RC shops
does it have floats to brian?
I put 5” air filled Dubros on mine.
NICE! HUGE ;)
Question: Not to change the subject but you have dealt with many sailplanes and I know how you like to fly them. In your opinion which sailplane would be the best in ease of construction and best in "thermaling"
Thermaling is possibly with any sail plane, but best with lighter planes, so if you're after ease of construction, then I would say the Conscendo Evo bit.ly/3bVtYkM would be the best for you.
Thank you for replying! Now what is your 9g servo of choice!
Mr Brian have you ever thought of having a top 10 planes for the year 2021 that we could choose from Thank you from Ohio.
That would be a cool idea.
Hey Brian, what were the actual wind speeds you were flying in there?
I wish I could say exactly, but it was 15-25mph or more.
Had to readjust my aileron horns on the carbon cub. The neutral position was ailerons all the way down..
Looks like my area are you in the northeast? Anyway great video I may just build this one !
We're in Central Iowa, USA ;)
👍
thanks!
Why do you never calibrate the ESC?
That is a whole lot of Plane for the Money
I agree! I wish the wings came off easier... I guess if a guy needed to take it down, you could use servo extension cords for the wing you take off, and just kinda flop them, while still connected to the side. I did that on a few sail planes I had, and worked well, but since we don't have to pack planes in the car much any more (thank GOD!) we don't have to tare them down too much.
@@BrianPhillipsRC Yeah so many companies now are just making those quick disconnect wing tips to speed up the transporting of the plane.
Do you think that simulator you reviewed is good for practice? It kind of seems the same.
Yes, but I perfer real life whenever possible....higher consequences causes quicker skill building
@@BrianPhillipsRC agreed, I learned from a "Fly Away" I think I heard you use that term just recently. But learned about flying in too hi of a wiend speed. Thus the term "Fly Away" . 🤣
Needs a wider wheelbase but a excellent plane
Soft tires would help a lot.
all the new Horizon planes have rock hard tires also. maybe they will read this and fix it
I would love it if they would, but I'm not holding my breath.
I don't understand why you don't use a transmitter with higher channel number I use a 16 channel radio myself and after watching you struggle with the flaps it would have been so much easier running the servo separate just to set it up through the radio and everything would have been perfectly trim and proper with a simple radio set up. I use a radio master t16s and I love it, (shameless plug)..
I see. Soon....more to come ;)
Hey Brian, Make Some Skies For It & Fly It Off The Snow! 😁 PS You L@@K Better With Longer Hair, Stop The Sides Buzz! 🤣
Love the plane but I'm going to get the Carbon-a Cessna 150T instead.
I meant Carbon Z 150T
Carbon Z Cessna 150T - good call ;)

What is the crazy mission?
I'm at PPG training this week. I'll have more to share soon ;)
Arrows Battery? Better than the Spektrum Batteries you're always seeing you use.. ?
Nope...but some people want to see how they work. Also, the batteries have been good, but I'm gonna stick with SMART packs myself ;)
I was just wondering .. I gave all my other older batteries to the other flight members and i invested probably $1500 in new smart packs. I truly see the difference in flight times and more battery punch. Thanks for your opinion.
ou je peux acheter ce model avion ?
Link is in the video description.
update the nx8 firmware, use the wifi its really easy, promises its worth it for naming aircraft
I have already done it, and reverted back to the Legacy Keyboard.
Pick 1 the Husky or the Carbon Z???s
Carbon Z Cub SS 2.1m - All day long, but the Husky is a different plane, so make so mistake...almost not a fair fight ;)

Can it Flat spin ?
I expect you could get it to do it, but I didn't, so I can't say for certain. Sorry about that
Okay, trying to brain storm here for a sec, oops I smell smoke ! If you unplug the flap servo that needs no adjust, sub trim the other servo, then re-plug the other servo, will it remember the old position, or the new trimmed position when plugged back in ? 🤔
No...if you unplug it, then move it, it'll return to the same position it started out. There's a feedback pot inside the servo ;)
👍🏽
thanks!
