Thanks for watching!
7:08 was the funniest thing I have ever seen on flite test!
You guys do all the things I dreamed of doing with RC, and then some. Keep it coming. It is fantastic.
I've got to try FPV
Yes you do. For about $400 you can purchase the Nano QX FPV w/ Fatshark headset. That would be the cheapest most easy way to get started. Only a 25mw VTx but it's enough to get your foot in the door. Best money I've ever spent. Now I'm hooked. I just ordered a Vortex 250 pro. Time for an upgrade for me.
+MasterMayhem78 yea great actually am planning to buy the fatshark goggles, thanks for the advice ;)
7:20 "I think what's his name...Stefan..." How times change!
Turned into a "flapping wing" at 7:08. The hawk is like "ya, these silly humans think they can fly":)
I think that Falcon was laughing at you guys. "Stupid Humans, they wish they could fly like me" :D
thanks Josh now I want a wing lol
Famous last words... "Yeah, it'll be fine." Right up there with "I can make that jump", "This battery's got one more flight in it", and "Hold my beer, watch this!" :)
I don't know the name of the quadrotor cameraman, but he deserves some serious respect for flying chase and maintaining decent camera angles simultaneously. I'd love to see an episode showcasing his setup and flight style with tips. Love it.
That scream is a Red-tailed Hawk, otherwise known as the voice artist for every bird of prey in every screen production ever. "Survivor" once dubbed this call over a shot of a Wedge-tailed Eagle in Australia. He just dropped by to provide the voiceover for the Mini Arrow.
Great final pass!!! Both Alex and Josh!
6:44 - 7:00 Alex's "dude" had me in splits!
Lol it was an incredible site! :)
7:28 Transformers! More than meets the eye!
Ha!
Awesome skills Josh B.
Whos the guy who fetches the wing? I don't think I've seen him before.
+Jay Anderson He's the wildcard of the bunch. ;) He used to have wild hair and a massive beard. Stefan is his name.
+RKRC Yeah I've noticed him appearing on episodes more recently, he's a funny guy! :)
+Jay Anderson Stefanovich!!! We are still figuring out a way to bottle his mass amounts of positive energy and sell it on the store:)
Its pure gold.
To anyone still watching this in 2020, I have, with my arrow just like that one, basically dive bombed full throttle into the ground and broke the wing IN HALF like 3 times and just glued and taped it back and it still flys great
Thank you so much for what you guys have done for the hobby!
Please do a video where you guys have either a large cargo plane, the helicarrier, or anything else like a large multi rotor,where you load a few mini fpv quads on (like 3-5) and you go on a mission with it. Also videos with apm 2.6 and fpv planes on long missions would be really cool!
To be fair the screech came from a Red-tailed Hawk.
Good fun guys. Are I always enjoy your creative approach to crashes. Cheaper for me and still good fun.
On my channel, my friends and I specialize in fpv airplane proximity flying through trees. Bixler said to put some links, so here you go! This summer we have some crazy stuff planned with massive planes! Check me out!
Another great episode guys I see Peter didn't come back when Josh come back the next day with his mini sportster which is to bad!
WTF awesome hawk screach, FPV drones racing through woods and the most amazing wing collapse. Thanks guys
cant wait for flitefest!
Love to see you guys build a foamie of the old Super Hots or Ultra Hot from Midwest.
I can't wait till Christmas. Flite Test under the tree.
Same I got this plane for Christmas
I want to see you guys do a review of the Hobbyking Walrus!
If the wing had a puller prop would it have done as well as the plane?
And you could use some filament tape under the wings of all your model kits!
just got a apprentice s15e for my birthday after showing my dad some flitetest videos so my dad is into rc planes now
I have been working on doing this on my channel for soooo long but I'm waiting on my FPV kit to come in. Nice flying guys.
You really needed a helical for the woods, would have helped a great deal :D I almost spat my coffee out when the wing gave itself a high five! Also, great flying at the end there Alex!
True. You really do need a helical when using a short range, low power VTx.
I would love to watch an entire episode about aerial footage of fast moving objects, that Alex make so well. It would be very useful to know some tips and tricks about how to chase an airplane or a moving car with miniquads.
+Everton Leite practice practice practice
I love flite test it's one of my favourite channels, I was just wondering not sure about the other viewers but I would love if the videos were in 4K your videos are always in nice sceneries and you guys always seem to have high end cameras and 4K go pros. Anyone else agree? I'm not sure if many people still have 4k displays but some people have 1440p phones and monitors would be nice with that extra resolution. Just a suggestion.
+MK2EA youtube max is 1080p
+Alfred Zianini it's 4k mate lol
Oh well, my connection is nowhere near my wifi speed... 360p is still my friend
***** oh really that sucks, i really do take it for granted. At least we watch the same videos
yup...oh well, I can live with it
You could try with a FPV nutball , hovering . I've done it and flies like a miniquad
Yes.They have too.
Maybe you guys have covered this already, but I would love to know Alex's setup on his versa copter.
Wow guy's that was the coolest thing you've done in months. What a concept, how about fly the wing thru a fpv course with gates.
Were your antennas matched? I get some mad static and not much distance when I use the wrong polarization receiver antenna with that micro rig. I need to go back and watch your video on cloverleafs, but I want to say I stuck with RHCP up until I got the Quanum elite micro vtx, which seems to be LHCP. Please chime in and correct me if I'm completely wrong.
Awesome tracking Alex! That shot was amazing brother!
I
I think I wanna grab a versa copter and really rip around with it to show what it's capable of!
Support these guys!!
Thanks dude!
Do you think the static could be coming from those metal poles you're flying behind?
Hi FliteTest crew. You guys should fpv through the woods with airsoft guns attached to planes(mabey warbirds) and have some dog fights! Your videos and products are great! Keep pushing out great content and plane designs😉
you guys should get and do a review or something on david windestal's mini tricopter design. I got one and although all of my flights end in a broken prop, (noob skills all the way) I love it and I want to see what you think about it.
please make a speed build kit of the mighty mini arrow
Pls can we have more videos like this.
steffens t shirt made me lol. I ordered one as soon as I saw it. this is going to make the kids in my youth group roll their eyes all the way around. best t shirt ever
Do a dynamic soaring video please.
This brings back the feeling of the days in Chad's basement. Great job guys!
in their late video's, it seems that they've thrown safety to the wind. I'm no better of course, but I remember Josh being real big on his safety.
yeah especially when he had that hand injury
I would like to see you do the weave polls at speed.
This was an epic episode!! ...I about died when the wing collapsed hahahaha :P ...that chase at then where one took the over and the other the under with that branch was amazing!! the banked sweep out the end gap tho Alex! amazing!
Just got my second arrow our for a maiden today. The first one split in half on maiden crash. The second one is still alive.
i really enjoyed that guys. I've a simple idea for you guys... an episode where you attempt to rescue an item attached to helium baloons that is flying away. you rescue it by flying a multi-rotor "through": the top of some of the baloons before it ascends too high into the sky. the baloons pop and the item; (say a stuffed toy or something of no value) is "saved". "hooray". ideally you would want to not hit any strings with the quad or it might crash. (if it is possible to fly a quad through helium baloons at speed and not crash, that would be look cool) just a idea i had. sure you've a a stack of em. keep up the great work.
Wich Camera you have used in the Wing. I want to build the Arrow.
I've had exactly the same thing happen with my mini arrow! I crashed it once, dusted it off and everything looked fine, about 10 seconds into the next flight, the wings start flapping and it comes down. I've connected the wings across the body with packing tape to give them some more rigidity, but I haven't battle tested that solution yet.
that was OUTSTANDING! Should be illegal to have that much fun.
the FAA is trying
I'm sure I'm not the first to ask but what's the story with the ever expanding pile of dirt? Will it ever stop growing into your nice little fly zone?
Nice shoot with the quad
Grammar much ha ha
Super love this style of vid, thanks homies!
what you guys need to make is a piper cub or a bigger champ!
how do you get a clover leaf antenna without a jack on it? (for soldering into the micro FPV setup that they made awhile ago on the channel.)
awesome vid guys
Good editing style
I just heard a FT member cuss for the first time ever! 2:44
lol
Yeah, I heard "what the f---"
I wonder why they didn't edit that out?
I can see how it sounds like that but I can assure you that Stefan is the last man you'd ever hear swear..
+Alex Zvada Yeah, probably just sounded like he did. But with recordings outside, you never know. Seems like a good guy, but a little excited at times, haha.
that was cool and looks like fun ! thanks guys !
I know this is really old but that was a redtail hawk's hunting scream
i missed a few videos... but i am noticing that massive dirt pile is getting bigger. what is going on?
do a review of the air hog fury jump jet
That was a fun episode guys! Keep up the great work
@flitetest i have a question, i use a Graupner MZ-24 too. What lipo do you guys use on the MZ24 that you've taped to the back? Thanks
Look how much FPV has changed in just 5 years!
Tough plane. Love it.
+André Rousseau That was my very first thought.
What type of receivers do you use on that screen?
Really cool video guys. How do those fpv systems work for people with glasses. I don't wear contacts. Are they easy to refocus for guys with poor vision?
can u upload a video that shows wha fpv system u use on the versa copter 2 it would be great!
Josh Josh Peter alex ect Every video i watch makes me wanna actually get
into Miniature Unmaned aviation. Thanks for what you do for the RC
community Keep rocking
wow , fresh video, never caught one on the same day lol, and as far as multi-rotors go I don't think tanking my phantom into the woods would be a good idea, maybe if I built one... hmm.
one thing a man should never say to another man across a field "go ahead and give me a toss!"
Awhat do i need to do fpv like the sportster. I have the plane the gopro4 receiver just missing to transmit and phat sharks is there a kit
Really awesome and funny episode!
I like Stefan's shirt...Jesus "I'll be back".
What monitor is this: 8:36? It looks really clear
Lol I love that guys shirt.. The picture of Jesus saying "I'll be back." Arnold style.
Race band tx and vas antennas will fix most of the video issues. ;) now come to the flying circus and wing race guys.
+StoneBlueAirlines Race band have wider separation of the channels or something else to make them co-exist better without static?
is that the VA2500 can and vtx combo? try the hobby king quanum elite camera and tx, which is a little bit better than the VA2500. and the quanum one have raceband!
Was that a 25mw Tx on the Arrow?
what camera did you use in the arrow?
Sooo, what’s the big red thing you guys have been painting?
+Maxx Eastick Possibly the uber big fuselage theyve had in the background of the nano fpv drone race vid??
You guys should make a quad made for recovering crashed planes. It sucks when you have to walk ages to get a downed plane :P
Falcon Screech!!
Flitetest you guys have amazing music. Can you release the song that starts at 9:04? I love that song.
Darude sandstorm
+flyingchimp99 i believe its custom...so...
ExperimentalFunRC ss I know. Hopefully they will release this song by itself. Its their best song imo
I'd so buy the FliteTest Soundtrack!
+flyingchimp99 i love the song in the beginning
I see your running the RunCam (orange one) it doesn't have any shielding like the HD version so that could be causing
some interference you might want to swap cameras? You won't do that with a GoPro! :)
Love these guys. But who started Flite Test?
rlachermeier josh bixler, the one flying the wing was one of the initial starters, he and the other josh are the face of flite test, theres someone else im forgetting though
Where can I get the music playing at 9:22?
what kind of paint did you guys use on the wing? it looks great!
hell yeah great video guys
Josh where are you I miss you
Hey does the MZ 12 have SLT
The screech you heard is a red tail hawk.
Hi, could you guys set up a hot wire foam cutter and fly through it with with different types of homemade planes. Make a challenge out of it or something. Thanks all and love the video
wats with the dirt pile?
I like how they say too much static after they crash.
