[jasono979]

[RedDevilSquadron]

Is there a review of the 50mm pipsqueak? And its not quite scale. The intakes are the only thing that isnt...

[rasorclips]

[ehsanaman222]

Banana Hobby = Daylight Robbery!!

[DmaProductions1]

i hav a question i was flying mine and im a begginer an d i open throttled it for like 5 7 min and it jus shut off md flight i crashed but i fixed it and now it would work i plug in the battery and it makes this low beep did i blow up the engine or wat its electric

[diegoled8]

Is it hard to fly

[diegoled8]

Is this plane good for beginners

is it easy to fly

[motoballz]

@diegoled8 If you've never flown before get a Dynam Hawk Sky..

[JetFlyyer]

whoa you got it pretty low at the first part of the vid.

[Tkopp243]

banana hobby = OVERPRICED JUNK!!!

[TakezoKenshei]

@Tkopp243 where do you reccomend

[Tkopp243]

@TakezoKenshei well there are lots of places to buy from. The pipsqueak is only available from banana hobby but you may not want it. You can buy very nice composite jets from Sapacamerica. They also have foam edfs which are fast and cheaper. Towerhobbies also has a wide range of planes including Edfs.

[sigkingkobra]

Does anyone has been contacted Blitz RC Works for warranty? I tried to manage the case directly with Banana Hobby and they dont do anything. The support team doesnt know anything about helicopters and always says that the problem is the battery. In addition helicopter creators, Blitz RC Works have a web page that appears in blank. How can I reach them?

[MrZied31]

bananahobby = bad quality no service after sale ......

[CoonBabble]

can i run 4s on mine stock its pretty slow. thanks for the reply in advance

[lozagon]

banana hobby, u changed the recomended CG from what I can see. U cut the battery wall and move the battery all the way upto the front.

[MdogProductions15]

.nitroplanes have the same plane but its just 139 NOT 250 u suck bananahobby

[aerobatic500]

Does this plane have a rudder? or just the vertical stab?

[999999999999999semir]

bad thing abbout this plane is it dosent retract the wheel's... =[

[DmaProductions1]

i dnt care wat kind of fucking magnets they r

[famous1ondeck]

ppshh...trust me. i know how the plane works.. lol.. your controls where reversed bub.. and you didn't tell me.. .. you know you say rtf... but mine wasn't and that's a fact.. because.. i had to "adjust something" that was suppost to already be adjusted.. BECAUSE . YOU GUYS SAID ALL YOU HAFT TO DO IS PUT TOGETHER THE PLANE.. THAT'S ALLLL YOU GUYS SAID.. 100% READY TO FLY HUH??? yea right... 100% your guys fault.. for not telling me that i had to change the settings.. but it's all good..

[famous1ondeck]

ps... your sister is one fine bitch. nice pics of her holding the jets.. I GOT SOMETHING SHE CAN HOLD!!!!!!!!

[famous1ondeck]

ps. like i said before it says on the website it's good for beginers .. well.. when you get your instruction book.. it says ONLY FOR EXPERIENCED PILOTS.. lol.. JUST A BUNCH OF DUSCH'S... i swear to god that everything i'm telling everyone is the truth.. take my word for it.. they will complety take your money right out of your pocket.. PS.. THESE "JETS" are imported from japan.. witch meens "SHITTY" .. thanks alot bananahobby.. for ripping me out of 250 dollars.. FUCK YOU PETEY SHORT FUCK!

[famous1ondeck]

i bought a jet from this website.. and gues what i was a beginer and it says on there website that there jets are good for beginners.. well.. as a beginner,, i thought all i had to do was put the thing together and fly it.. like they say that's all you haft to do.. well.. i tried to fly it and gues what.. with NO WARNING what so ever.. the controls where backwards.. left goes right and right goes left.. i crashed my 250 dollar jet straight into the ground and it's completly done for.. thanks

[Tamilflyer150]

@famous1ondeck You should of started out with a 3 channel first like the Flyzone Sky Fly 2 or Wild Hawk. When they say begginer they mean its a great begginer 4 channel EDF(Electric Ducted Fan) plane not a begginer plane in general...and the the flight controls can be reversed to normal by the channel reversing switches on the transmitter...So please don't blame bananahobby for your lost you should of searched more on information on rc airplanes and how it all works!

[CoonBabble]

is this in any way comperable to my t-28 by parkzone? am i going to be dissappointed with sub par build quality? im thinking of picking up one just for the look

[starwarsjazz]

I love this review, I am thinking about getting this, but i am a beginner, i am really good on a sim. but i don't know if this is a beginner jet, or should i get the huge wingspan glider? please reply.

[RCFLIGHTHELP]

I would think about getting one ... but I have heard about customers service and I have been scared off. Sorry , but I love your videos.

[bananahobby]

That is an area where I have been working hard to correct. It takes time to do so. I can not make changes here in a week or a month. It is getting better with the new personnel I have been hiring. I will still be here and do the best I can to assist all my patrons.

[trav209660]

DO NOT BUY FROM THEM THEY ARE HORRIBLE

[monimstarfox]

@bananahobby

is this a good starter plane?

[trav209660]

KEEP RUNNING DONT LOOK BACK

[rcm2pqrtv]

awesome jet dude i fell in love with it so i ordered one last week nice flying iam looking forward ordering that f 117 it is sick man

[bananahobby]

Thank you! Let me know if you have any questions!

[1997GEO]

How Much is this?

[bananahobby]

It is on our site. I can't list amounts here.

[ghostdrive666]

hey pete, i made an order for this plane just after i saw this vid, i've been looking for a scale electric L-39 for as long as i can remember and im thankful to have track you down. electrifly doestnt have any landing gear and is expensive where im from so thanks again, cant wait till the pipsqueak gets here.

[bananahobby]

Awesome! Have fun! Let me know if you have any questions!

[REDie2009]

Pete, is the L-39 capable of a slow flight?

This will be my first EDF...

[iGamerReview]

hey BH. why don't you do the review at your shop, then go flight it in the field after. its hard to hear, and you have to yell some times, and often you leave info out. for. example. it doesn't appear to me that it uses a rudder, yet it says on your site that it does.

just a suggestion.

[bananahobby]

Thanks for the suggestion!

[endlent]

great

[bananahobby]

Thanks!

[radampl]

SUPER !!!

[bananahobby]

lol! Thanks!

[Krxtopher]

I'm considering my first EDF purchase and this L-39 looks fantastic! One newbie question...can it be hand launched and landed on its belly if I leave the landing gear off? Unfortunately my flying field is not paved.

[bananahobby]

Thanks for your comment! You can choose to hand launch and belly land if you wish. Your only area to watch out for is use some flare on your landings and she will be just fine!

[pilonga123]

do you recomend this plane for a bigginer?? (sorry for the bad english again)

[bananahobby]

It will depend on if the person has any flying experience at all. Your English is just fine!

[dtilney]

pilonga - My advice is to start with a forgiving three channel plane like the Skyfly. You'll be glad you did because for about a hundred bucks you can learn to fly and you will crash. It's just part of learning. Replacement parts are cheap. I recently bought this L-39 and I love it. I like your ambition, but Pete here makes it look easy. ;-)

[bananahobby]

Thank you for the reply! =D

[YupHio]

cool

[bananahobby]

Thanks!

[tophercantellus]

I bought this jet and still haven't received any technical help with the transmitter that came with it. No one has got back to me from BANANAHOBBY for 3 days. Ben was the last person I talked to. HOW DO YOU BIND THE RADIO WITH THE RECEIVER?

[bananahobby]

I apologize. We just completed with a move to a new location and things have been crazy hectic. Ben is working for a different department of the company now.  Please message me your order number and we will contact you with bind instruction. Thank you for your patience.

[tophercantellus]

Thanks for the reply. I called in and finally got the instruction I needed. But a burst of 25 MPH wind sent me to the ground after a nice flight. What kind of parts can you get for this jet? Specifically a fusaluge?!!

[bananahobby]

If you need a fuselage, please email us and my parts dept will get you a price. Thanks! Sorry to hear that!

[tonyastro]

Do you guys have a store in San Gabriel or do you only sell online?

[bananahobby]

We are internet only. Thanks!

[TurboBoss]

Hey Pete, I want to order a L-39 Pipsqueak. can I order it without the transmitter in order to use it with my JR 72Mhz radio?

THX

[bananahobby]

Sure thing! You can just use the option NO I use my own radio. Thanks!

[TurboBoss]

But Pete,

when ordering in your site, it dont ask me what type of radio I have. Do the factory RX on the L-39 Pipsqueak work with FUTABA and JR ???? Do it recognize negative and positive shif?

THX,

Isaac

[bananahobby]

If yo opt for no radio gear there will not be a receiver. They work on negative shift if you were to get one. I suggest using your own JR equipment if you have it already.

Pete

[rolgarcia1]

nice flying 5 star. how often do u crash?

[bananahobby]

Thanks for the comment! I very rarely crash. I try not to of course!

[Crazydude4320]

You are one good pilot!!!!

[bananahobby]

Thanks for the comment!  Happy New Year!

[bananahobby]

Thank you!! I appreciate that!

[thebigbrownbox]

Hey Pete, do you own BananaHobby? Are you the founder? If so, how did you do it? How does one become such a great producer of great planes and have his own shop?

Congratulations and thanks for all of your great work!!!!!!

[mxf7010g8k]

im pretty sure he just flies and reviews the planes but i really have no isea

[bananahobby]

I do more than just fly. =)

[mxf7010g8k]

LOL

[bananahobby]

I can not disclose my position here at BH. LOL. Thanks for the comment and a lot of hard work goes into a shop like this. Happy New Year!

[thebigbrownbox]

Darn! I respect that though, Pete.

Thanks!

[speedstakerguy]

awsome! which plane would be the less breakable and under $250?

[bananahobby]

LOL! Less breakable! That would be like the T-38 Talon in the US Thunderbirds scheme on our site. It is made of EPP foam. Much more resilient to smacks and tumbles.

[speedstakerguy]

lol i meant least breakable XD

[speedstakerguy]

hmm the body of the T-38 Talon looks really thick and packed! though im not a big fan of the foamy planes :P

[bananahobby]

LOL. The T38 is more durable than the rest.

[abd77777]

Thank you bananahobby

I've just got this model and it is my first try in the sky and I look forword to seeing your next model.

[bananahobby]

You are very welcome!  Please let me know if yo have any questions! Happy Flights and Happy Landings!

[daledooh]

Hey pete just wondering if blitzrcworks will be offering any of there jets with 2.4ghz transmitters in the future? also I love this l-39 but im not crazy about the red, will there be any military camo verzions available in the future with maybe a Czechoslovakian camo green with the yellow wing tips? that be awesome

[bananahobby]

Some of the models in the future by BlitzRC will be supplied with 2.4ghz. There is one other version of the L-39 on our site. It is not the red one. I have yet to review that one.  Same everything, just different paint scheme. Also working a few new models as well. Happy Holidays!

[warderseeker]

The Electrifly L39 has a cool scheme and is very inexpensive. just add esc and servos. Check for videos of it

[england901]

very good flying mate!

[bananahobby]

Thank you! Happy Holidays!

[bj2much]

i have a question is it just like in the sim to turn

i just get the plane banked at wicth way i want to turn then i just pull on the elevatoor

is this the correct way i should be practicing on the sim

[bananahobby]

The simulator is just like flying a actual RC! You would need to bank and apply elevator to turn.

[bj2much]

i just bought the f35 lightning

i am pretty good at flying the simulator and i know what all the controls do to the full extent

do you think i should try this plane out or send it back

[bananahobby]

If you purchased it already, yo must feel some what like you are ready for it. The F-35 is very stable and is a ton of fun to fly. I would say keep it and put in some more simulator time.

[xmodscarbonslost]

A DX5e AR500 will work with this right?(Will the receiver fit?)

[bananahobby]

DX5e will work just fine! You just need to get the version with out the transmitter and receiver. The Spektrum receiver will fit just fine! Happy Holidays!

[xmodscarbonslost]

cool this may be my next jet.... Also what is the diff. between this one and the blue one besides color an manufacture? (performance wise

[bananahobby]

Performance wise, this one is a bit faster and I think the Red looks nicer in flight!

[xmodscarbonslost]

yeah not to mention easier to see in the blue sky which seem to have diapered.lol (i live in southern California too)

[bananahobby]

HAHA!  I agree!

[vetterman008]

Another great review Pete! Retracts sure would have made this baby look killer!

Have a Happy, Healthy, and Safe Holiday Season.

[bananahobby]

Thank you! You do the same my friend!  I am working on retracts for many new models! Happy Holidays to you and yours!

[grame141]

hmmmmm a hair raising experence

awesome vid !merry christmas and a happy new year!

[bananahobby]

Thanks for the comment! Happy Holidays to you!!

[brklynjohn1294]

Great flight.. watch it almost crashed it lol 5*

[bananahobby]

Thanks!! You mean when I was inverted and the rudder was like an inch from the runway. LOL! Happy Christmas!

[genysys20]

[bananahobby]

Thanks for the comment! Happy Holidays!

[eddynelly1717]
