You need to align nose wheel screw and tighten to flat on shaft . Then trim alignment to rudder servo. Then find a much larger area to fly.
I can’t believe the lack of common sense that is on show in this video.
I was caught between almost laughing out loud at your attempts at take off and total admiration for you having the guts to show your mishaps so openly. I’m a pretty novice pilot myself but no matter how “easy to fly” they make these models, they still require a degree of skill. It’s generally easier to hand launch and - as a lot of the other comments made - give yourself as much room as possible both in terms of field size and flying height as that gives you more time to deal with problems. I’ve also learned the hard way and have spent a few hours trying to fish my aircraft out of the clinging branches of pesky trees! Keep going- it DOES get easier- and more fun!
Thanks for the comment, I am glad you enjoyed the video. I agree hand launching is the way to go, as I have learned since then , in my other videos.
god I hope you are better now lol. the video was great though. @@newenglandrc
Very true, I'm still working on my redemption flight for the aeroscout!
You may have a model aircraft club in your area, and I'm sure you can find someone who would be happy to give you flight instruction. Yes you needed a much bigger field, and an instructor with a "buddy box" connection to your transmitter. Even in real airplanes they didn't give me the controls for takeoffs and landings untill after several flights where the instructor took care of that while I learned to control the plane once in the air.
the instrucitons tell you how to set up before first flight, You need to do the trim for the nose wheel for straight rolling.
lol, you need to find the nearest AMA flying field and talk to some pilots there. Perhaps you can even find a mentor to buddy with on your first flight
LOL Hard lesson learned but totally worth it for entertainment value. Thanks for reaching out.
That's better advice then mine
Painful to watch-- but entertaining
This was so entertaining. Halfway through, I was hoping that you didn’t get it off the ground for fear of what might happen in the air! RealFlight Sim and having an instructor guide me at the beginning certainly helped tremendously.
Insanity is continuing to do the same thing but expecting different results
I can't and won't laff. You did better than I did. Mine went up up and away but then came straight down and pretty much exploded .
I appreciate the support from someone who understands. Thanks for watching.
A fine little place for flying 😂😂😂
LOL oops
I had the same experience with mine on the first flight flight. Second flight ended in a nose dive which destroyed the front end. My problem was to small of space. The next time I flew was in a very large field and it helped so much. My confidence grew a whole bunch after being able to take off and land it.
Nice to know I'm not the only one lol but sorry to hear you had the same crappy first experience. Practice makes perfect ... Thanks for reaching out.
A beginner trying to fly an airplane in that small area is a (fool and his airplane are soon parted)
We all gotta start somewhere. Thanks for watching and commenting. (You can say nice things or mean things but either way, you helped out my channel, so thanks.)
Ever think about asking for help...lucky he didnt hurt someone
Rough and significant terrain variables. You gotta find a larger area man. Also, taking off is generally the easy part.
Surely you could see the nose wheel wasn’t straight ? Grass far too long and area far too small. Good luck for further flights. 😊
Me and a buddy of mine started just like you with no flight sim no experienced pilot to teach us it was a brutal first few months crashing/plane gone in the wind/stuck in tree/fell in a lake my buddy even got his plane attacked by a F****** bird so dont give up its a amazing hobby and you will look back at these hard times will a smile later.
Sorry about your terrible first experience! 🙁 I hope that you'll find some help for your future attempts 🤞🏾
The Aeroscout is an awesome trainer, and it is very sturdy as you already experienced ...I hope that you can recover her soon...I suggest you to find a local baseball park or an empty mall parking lot and practice there... Make sure that you perform a good preflight checks and secure and tighten all the screws very good, specifically the one that holds the front landing gear...
Again I really wish that you can recover your plane and that your future attempts ended up with a really good finale! 🤞🏾🤞🏾🙏
Have a great rest of your day! Greetings from Douglas, Arizona 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾🌵🦠😷🇵🇷
Thanks for sharing your experience with us! 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
Like#52
Thanks for reaching out. I appreciate the kind words. I lost the Aeroscout last year but I have made some progress w/ my Carbon Cub replacement plane.
@@newenglandrc That's awesome! 😊 I'm glad to hear that! 😊👍🏾
Let me share with you some of our flights in our club! ua-cam.com/video/Y-j0u2g3gEM/v-deo.html
Have you try to research for RC clubs near your location? If you can find one, that would help you a lot. They always have people willing to help new pilots to have a great experience. Do your search through the Academy of Model Aeronautics (AMA) web page. You won't regret!... I hope that you can figure it out and find a local flying site soon!😊🤞🏾🤞🏾🤞🏾
Have a great day! Greetings from Douglas, Arizona 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾🌵🦠😷🇵🇷
To get out of tree. Buy slingshot, fishing line 40lb, and fishing line lead weight. Everything at Walmart for less than $15. It does work. Do search for details. Just did this on 3 story tree.
Thanks for the advice, I will look into it.
I'm sure I commented on this when I first saw it but from my own horribly wrong first flight to my joining an RC Club with a group of professionals, was the best decision I ever made. That plane will do anything you tell it to if it's adjusted right. You didn't change a prop did you, if it's backwards it will fly, just will not have the umph, this guy at thy club looks and says, your prop is on wrong! 😂 what a difference.. be safe
Thanks for reaching out. That was nearly 2 years ago and was the first time I ever attempted to fly an RC plane. I didn't know what I was doing and it got stuck in a tree, never to be seen again. I bought the Carbon Cub to replace it and crashed that a few times but I still have it. I haven't tried to fly an RC plane again since last year but I do plan to repair the carbon cub and try again in the fall.
@1:12 I was like:😈..he doesn’t notice it yet..
It's all good buddy!!! I've lost over 2k in learning multiple nitro planes when I first started
Don’t give up just join a club and I’m sure a member would love to help you , and get very proficient on the simulator . You could also hire a tree climber to get that plane out , those guys are crazy
Update! Plane is still in tree and motor still not running.
These are super easy to fly they almost fly themselves, you need to join a club and for a beginner you need a much bigger open space, Plus the grass was to long for that little motor to get airborne good luck
Lesson learned, thanks for watching.
You left your handbrake on bro!
Im surprised you flew it as long as you did lol
Me too, I couldn't control it. I was hoping I could get it back around but a tree caught it first. Hard lesson learned as a newbie flying planes
The second time is worse than the first, definitely a great example of everything not to do with your new rc plane. Lol
This video is a year old. Maybe he learned how he to fly, by now
I feel really bad for you. I crashed mine on the first flight badly, 3 pieces! I did rebuild it but haven't got the next flight yet. I look forward to seeing your next endeavor and hope it works better for you!
Can't believe what I'm seeing . . . I'm at a loss for words too.
RC aircraft are NOT designed to taxi thru rough terrain, mud, ditches, and 6-inch tall grass. NOT designed to fly thru trees and radio towers either.
yeah yeah ... It happened 2 years ago...
🤣🤣🤣🤣 I guess some peope should stay on the ground!! 😎
LOL yup
Find an open space. You should try rc cars.
That’s obviously not a good place to fly. I thought this was a practical joke 😂
It was my first time flying an RC Plane ... Gotta start somewhere. Thanks for watching.
dude the aeroscout in safe mode is one of the easiest planes to learn on. practice that plane on the simulator and always make sure that you test all surfaces in a preflight check. i think you screwed up the nose wheel installation. There is a flat spot on the shaft that has to line up with the screw realflight 9.5s is the best tool for you. also go find a soccer field or a park that is HUGE
Agreed, I did screw up the nose wheel installation & I blindly flew this plane with no experience 2 years ago. I am reminded constantly of my mistakes though, as this is still one of my top videos watched 2 years later lol.
This is better than a 3 stooges episode.
Mine too 😢
I spend so much time up trees, folks keep throwing me bananas!
Stick to the 15-cent balsa gliders dude
LOL, Good advice
I thought i had a bad time.. I hope you figured it out..
I got my first plane stuck in a tree also! It just so happened I had a home made blowgun in my car! It’s about $5 to make one out of metal conduit, you can find it on UA-cam. Also use surveyor flags, 3 per wire flag and put something blunt on the tip to “knock” it out. Everything can be found at a hardware store. Good luck. P.S. watch videos on flying RC, when you think you got it watch some more! Lol
As an instructor I always insist a new flier find an area open to at LEAST 200ft in all directions! Yeah, *I* and others can fly in the field you used because of experience in keeping a plane within the confines, but to start, don’t be restrained like this! I hated to see you lose the plane! An Aeroscout can do this but it takes practice.
Check my channel for “Aeroscout flies in 30mph winds”. A vid I just posted for grins. These planes are perfect for starting out so give yourself some space! Being relaxed in an open field will allow better control and judgement.
Thank you for the feed back & kind words. Rough start for me but it will get better in time.
Well this video is a year old now according to the information. I pray you finally got your plane back. It’s horrible to think that, after buying a plane, then investing in a pc plus flight software you have nothing. I do agree that trees and buildings do not make a goose boundary to a flying zone but I’m hoping you have carried on with this. I’m a total beginner and as yet haven’t flown my Hobbyzone Cub S V2 yet, so I might be doing some of what you did. Baby steps eh?
"That was my first time flying".....Sorry, that ain't flying!
Sorry to laugh but this is funny lol, first off that is way to small are for first time flying it and not sure if anyone told you looks like the front nose wheel set screw is loose
oops lol
And your lipo is toasted 😂
Thats a open area if you know what you're doing 😂 did you manage to get it back? Can you fly now? Made me laugh anyway 🤣
This is by fare the easiest plane to fly. Not near large enough space and I'm guessing you didn't have safe enabled, For an area that small a UMX would do fine
Live and learn right, We all gotta start some where. Check out my other videos, I eventually get a little better but still I'm still learning.
Maybe start with an RC Boat
I have several RC boats. Heres a link to a video of my favorite RC boat. Let me know what you think. ua-cam.com/video/ZeDovx7OXUk/v-deo.html
Fly in a larger area
Correct
Thanks for convincing me to stick with boats.
Lol, I got the same problem on my first flight, I straightened the wheel and then had no issues on take off. There is not enough airspace for you to fly where you did, specially if you were using safe mode, you need more space to turn your plane around. There were too many tall obstacles. My recommendation, buy the steam real flight trainer ($39)and learn to fly on your pc using your controller. You will be happier with the results.
Definitely too small of an area and littered with trees.
I don't understand, was the rudder not working properly or were you not using it? The aeroscout taxis very well, especially on asphalt. Also for small areas like that you would want safe at least on intermediate. Beginner doesn't allow you to bank enough to make sharp turns.
If you really want to fly there, I would definitely look into the umx night vapor
It was my first go ever trying to fly an RC plane & I failed lol. I had better success w/ my Carbon Cub after a few more failure videos shown on my channel.
@@newenglandrc glad to hear! It's a shame you lost your aeroscout because I have it too and it's so smooth and responsive. But the carbon cub is top notch too. I'm gifting one to my dad so I guess I'll find out how much better it is soon. If you're looking to fly in small areas like the one in the video try out the night vapor. In
@@redcobra1246 good to know
Hard to watch 😮
Painful…. I wouldn’t have left it in the tree. There are a few ways to an aircraft out of a tree, in my case a drone. I used stuff I had sitting around conduit, a few lengths of dowel, duct tape, surgical tubing and a fishing reel from a neighbor.
I used the dowel like arrows and the conduit like a rifle barrel and then a lot of patience.
Very creative, Ill keep that in mind if it happens again with my other plane. thanks for reaching out.
Hey bud,..Sorry for the jerk comments, no reason for that. I Admire your posting a True life experience trying to fly for the first time ! I mostly fly Acro FPV drones and even with that experience,...planes are a whole different animal ! Love your Positive Attitude and staying with it until you DID Fly it ! Best Wishes on your journey and hang in there !
Thanks man, I really appreciate the kind words. Lessons Learned, Lessons Gained. Thanks for reaching out.
Greetings from New Zealand
10 /10 for effort
10/10 for percaverance ( unlike my spelling )
10/10 for balls to put it on utube
1/ 10 for ..........
but on a personal level I hope like me you found soon help and a good flying buddy ......
Never give in 😎
It did get better with my next plane lol
Awsum Man....I destroyed my aeroscout fuselage on my forth flight..... Hadn't done preflight check...... hopefully a re-maiden today..... happy flying 😁
Thanks for reaching out, glad I'm not the only one lol.
Find a local club and ask for training
"C'mon plane, come on down".................Voice from above "H"ELL NO!
Got one brilliant plane
TREES N PLANES DONT MIX
YOUR PROBLEM WAS
YOUR NOSE WHEEL WAS DISCONNECTED FROM YOUR RUDDER THEY BOTH USE THE SAME SWRVO.. RUDER MOVES SO DOES THE FRONT WHEEL.
SECONDLY.... YOU NEED QUITE A LONG FLATISH RUNWAY TILL YOUR EXPERIENCED.
AND THIRDLY..... BIG EMPTY FIELD...
I'VE BEEN FLYING FOR QUITE SOME TIME AND A BIT CRAZY IN WHAT I DO BUT EVEN I WOULDN'T ATTEMPT TO TAKE OF IN THAT SCRUB
AS FOR THE PLANE
WAIT FOR THE FALL.... sorry couldn't help but say that...

Joe. I've had a UMX Turbo Timber "landed" in a tree so far up I had to wait for a wind storm to get it down. This happened twice with the same plane. Yeah, the bigger the space you fly in the better are your chances of having a successful flite.
Ps. I've already seen some of your more recent videos. Have you got the flaps on that Cub yet?
Thanks for reaching out. Nice to know I'm not alone when it comes to getting RC planes caught in trees. I still have some work to do mastering my cub.
You had a better chance of flying it in a gym. Bigger space man. Good luck.
This aircraft is ultra sensitive to settings , especially elevator, and I have had nothing but difficulties with it compared to others I own. After breaking the nose wheel four times, and destructive crashes four times, I have decided it is no longer worth my efforts and I will be taking it apart for the electronic in it. Many may get it to fly properly, and when it does fly, it is a great plane, but simply not worth the effort required to continue to do so. Your experience may vary but I would rather use my time to fly other more stable planes.
Compared to flying professional DJI drones, this is an extremely difficult hobby and has a huge learning curve,
Yup I learned the hard way. My first RC plane, I had no idea how difficult it would be to fly. oops ... Live and learn LOL.
No matter what the distance is to an AMA flying club I think it will pay great dividends to start practicing with an instructor. You first "hands on" can be in level flight after he safely gets your airplane to a safe altitude. I too did not do this. I could take off and land safely if I was standing right behind the plane. I had several short up and down flights. I built a Carl Goldberg Eaglet (I think that was the name) with a .20 gas engine along with Futaba radio gear. I went to a closed runway of an active airport for my first real flight. Once my plane was flying towards me I could not get comfortable and lost control quickly. That bird was too fast for me. It got higher and soon it was over the active runway of the airport. I didn't want police trouble or tower personnel after me so i pushed down and KAMIKAZE straight down into the concrete deck. Even my gas engine would not turn over again. Surprisingly my Futaba servos still worked fine. I will say to you that you made me want to commit seppuku and at the very least put a towel over my head and cry. Your video is powerful, not fun but powerful. Perhaps your will be able to fly full speed just a few feet off the deck and fly low and slow with complete control with practice. Every expert has made mistakes and most likely had their share of crashes. You'll be just fine if you love the hobby but hook up with an AMA Club and pay the membership dues for a few months until you are ready to go solo from wherever you like. Think about hand launching too. There are lots of RC Pilots on UA-cam to watch and learn from. You and I must graduate from the "dorkmeister club". I hope I never see such a painful video again. Money is like the blood in our body and we cannot spill it in the treetops. The financial hit alone is painful to lose your bird! Many people have been in this club but it is time to walk away and climb to the ranks of the pros. Best wishes, Jeffrey in Oklahoma ua-cam.com/video/wwbDd4FFidY/v-deo.html&start_radio=1
Thanks for reaching out and the kind words. I had a rough start but I've had better success with my Carbon Cub after I lost the AeroScout last year. More RC Plane videos to come in the fall. Thanks for watching.
I would like to assure you and any other viewers I was never laughing at you but laughing with you for we have both had similar experiences. Carbon Cub is an awesome bird and they have several models of the CC. I'm happy to hear you are gaining experience. RC is a beautiful way to let the noise of daily life and the world fall away (meditation for the soul). 👍 @@newenglandrc
Dude seriously what are you thinking. Totally not the place to try to fly the plane for starters
I know I learned my lesson 2 years ago but this video always comes back to haunt me for life LOL
Wow that second day was much better, NOT.
I hope this is not real and just for RC comedy
It is whatever you interpret it to be lol
pretty park but not for flying
We all been there, lost mind within hours in a large tree- The Aeroscout really doesn't take much of a beating when learning, the entire front end nose is balsa wood so housing for front tire to steer takes one bad hit and its toast. good luck, FYI- like others said find a large, very large area without any tall trees to learn.
Yes, bigger area next time, oops ... thanks for watching.
Stick to ground RC until you at least meet a RC pilot to show you the basics of flying.
Nose wheel isn't set correctly. Grass is too long.
oops
Why try to fly the plane from a clearly unfit surface, full of ruts, obstacles and worst of all, next to a transformer 🫡🫡
Try the sport cub s2
I was actually thinking about that too. I may do that at some point. I like that the Sport Cub 2 is smaller & meant for a smaller area, which is probably a better fit for me.
Southern new Hampshire flying Eagles. Merrimack nh
How did I join?
@@lennyz853 look up there website and find the directions to the field and show up on sunday mornings. There will be club officers that will get you started and help get you in the air. Good luck
This was painful to watch! Read the manual!
Just hand launch it!
next time lol
@@newenglandrc that wes painful to watch brother..lol
LOL more painful to film, thanks for watching.
@@newenglandrc Im looking forward to the next upload 💪
Awesome thanks for watching
I do not have any lose for words, you should have never sent it, the way it was, and find a bigger area and get something smaller to fly there, like a Umx Turbo Timber.
Agreed, tough lesson learned 2 years ago, first time I ever flown an RC plane. Thanks for watching.
@@newenglandrc So how are ya doing these days, good to see that my uncle is not the only one, he has gotten better and never a dull moment when we fly, he had destroyed a few plans and one was the Aero Scout. He has one that has spent a whole month in a tree along with many others, by the way it has been glued back together so many time I can not count and still flies today, I love it, hey brother have a great day. If you are ever in Sanford NC look me up and come fly with us at our own flying field, our home.
@@truenaturestormers2525 Thanks for reaching out. I haven't done much flying lately but I plan to repair my Carbon Cub this summer and add a GPS module to it. Will see how it goes next Summer.
Dude! Read the manual!!!
Its funny how something that happened 2 years ago just keeps coming back to haunt me forever LOL
You are funny!
This was a really cool video, you are a great pilot just having fun
Well done sir!
Happy flying!
That's a piss poor area to attempt flying in. Need a good size area with good terrain.
That is true, oops
@@newenglandrc did you ever retrieve your plane?
@@jamescampbell7605 I kept going back to the spot where it was hung up in the tree once a week for a few months to see if it fell down and then one day it was gone ... At least I still have the Carbon Cub.
And a screw driver 😉
See comment P
time to move out of moms house i thinks
Ouch that was harsh. Well Thanks for the comment your still helping me out asshole :)
Plus you are not even in an appropriate pace to fly!! Too many obstacles!
Until about 3/4 of the way through this I was firmly convinced you were deliberately botching it and then you would do some insanely cool takeoff followed by some next level aerobatics. Then I realized it was 100% real and it was immediately 100% less entertaining.
I 100% thank you for watching & sorry to disappoint you. The video is over a year old & it was my first try flying an RC plane ever. I have better videos.
This is quite possibly the worst youtube video I've ever seen . . . ever . . .
Thanks for watching :)
This has to he a joke video. You really are an experienced pilot right!
That was the first time I ever tried to fly an rc plane in my life. I went in blind, no training, no prior knowledge, no nothing, just a fool trying to make a video. Check out my other plane videos. They are all disasters but I do make progress eventually lol.
Way too small of an area… especially for a first flight
Hard lesson learned over a year ago but still one of my most popular videos today ... Go figure...
What do you fly now?
Carbon Cub S and I am still terrible at flying planes. ua-cam.com/video/EFclDvTtEjU/v-deo.html
You need more than a simulator if this video is for real, you need God's help.
Ha Ha, you're right I do
@@newenglandrc Im sorry but it was funny probably because It was so similar to my first attemps .Hey its been about 25 years and I tried learning on my own like you and I did learn to fly although it was the hard way to do it because I was not the kind to join a club. The 2nd video ramming the carbon cub into the fence on the ground was just like I did when I started and I crashed at least 3 planes afterward , the big difference was mine all had to be built from a kit and they were not the new electric foam style quick to put together models like these today. Don"t give up just remember when you turn with the ailerons and rudder you also need to use up elevator and power to keep the plane from going down when turning, once you master that these new planes are a snap to land. Just remember to gain more altitude and a little up elevator when banking to make a turn, good luck.
Thanks man, I really appreciate you reaching out & also admitting you had trouble too when you first started. I have to agree it is funny watching these videos too. All par for the course, I guess. People seem to be reacting really well to my disaster videos but hopefully one day I will have some awesome flight videos to offer as well.
I am sure this is flying comedy on purpose. Nobody is that dim witted.
Wow
