Eflite UMX Beast 3D with AS3X The Maiden/Comparison

[lordosirus]

The AS3X on the micros is brilliant.My 3D Beast is way easier to fly outside than my Polecat.Looking forward to the UMX Spitfire an Mig 15 in April.I'd better start saving!

[cdcdude]

Should I get an beast v1 for 70 bucks or one of these for...whatever retail is?

[Flippit1303]

@cdcdude i would get the new one. Well worth the money. But that is my personal opinion.

[rcoconut]

Cool Chuck!! And nice knife edge & GREAT save!!! You had me shaking!! I guess that AS3X is the real deal huh?! Might have to add this as well as the GeeBee R2 in the hangar?! And I did get the DX8 all set up with the Radian Pro! The telemetry is AMAZING!! I got the Altimeter & Flight Pack Voltage for the RP!! Thanks for all the help, have a good one and that's better filming than I could do that's for sure!!

What plane do you use in Phoenix Sim to practice flying the new UMX Beast?

[Raptor50aus]

Nice video but turn off auto focus next time.

Yes I was wondering about which battery to use. So the 200Mah will work pushed back then cool.

[ChuckTSeeker]

@MrNakakaTaco

yes you do not need as much expo, i still like to use it myself

[z8machine]

Your skills have really improved over the course of your video reviews. I don't mind the camera work, it's hard to film these things, even the 'official' videos use snippets. The 120 batt doesn't work, the new higher kV motor worbles right away. The AS3X plane 3Ds best with the 200 mAh battery pushed back til you can't see it to get the planes inherently too far forward CG under control. But it's still a handful to fly well due to the even heavier weight. Nice job.

@z8machine

thanks for the kind comments and yes i practice a lot and fly as much as i can, plus i'm getting to fly a good range of planes these days

[diabolicaldarkness1]

holy crap your camera man sucks, see more of the sky than the plane

[ChuckTSeeker]

@diabolicaldarkness1

i'll tell the misses you loved her work then for your sake haha she's a killer

[M3n00b]

@ChuckTSeeker haha....fire her

[toolbaggers]

u state that u won try a 120 batt because eflite says to use a 180 then u go install the 210. whats up with the double standard? why dont u just state that u think it might be too tail heavy with the 120?

[theimacman]

"thank you so much Phoenix Sim"

Agreed!! It's so helpful practicing on the Sim! I had my first hobby-grade RC plane flight just the other day, in 10mph winds, and the only way I was able to do it without crashing was from my practice on the Sim. :D

[wacko911]

I think your cameraman is drunk

[lkagan2000]

Thank you for sharing!  I'm waiting for my Beast 3D to arrive in the stores here in the states.

[flyingchimp99]

om personally not a fan os as3x...or whatever its called.....it takes the ''SKILL'' out of flying....

[theimacman]

@flyingchimp99

No it doesn't. And, you are only speculating that, as you obviously haven't flown a plane with the AS3X technology.  Stop being an RC snob, and ignorant to boot. :/

[flyingchimp99]

@theimacman cmon man, thats not really nice....but to argue back, im gona point out that as3x is basically a gryo...it corrects things that in my opinion....maybe not yours....should be corrected by the pilot and not by a machine....wind is a natural part of flying...and if you have trouble flying with wind or maybe you hate the natural flight patterns of a certain plane then maybe its good for you. I didin't appreciate you calling me a snob.... :\

[shockflyyer3d]

which one do you like better? :)

[UltraMicroRC]

They're bloody hard to follow at the best of times these little UM's. Thanks for the vid chuck, looking forward to more on this interesting little "beast".

[fisherboom]

Don't listen to the Whiners Chuck you did your best under the conditions you were in ; )

[Silverexpress01]

The smiles says it all!

[008win]

Anyway, its a fluent plane, nice review!

[theimacman]

@008win

At first I read that as "flatulent plane" lol I thought you were making fun of all the sounds the gyros make. :)~

[008win]

@theimacman Dude :o "Performances"

are

more

eloquent than

lips. Thats the reason rc planes are made for LOL :-) I dont mind to own diff kinds of planes which "enhance" my personal "experiences" as many other pilots would be most pleased to do :-d The new 'Beast' says for itself that its still a "fluent" plane ;)~

[rcflyer40plus1]

All good - appreciate the comparison. I look forward to flying one of these next year.

[LLsRC]

Sorry, shooting video of RC 101: don't use zoom or auto focus.

[electricrc68]

thanks for the video! it was a little hard to follow, but its fine.

[ChuckTSeeker]

@desidudes78

Did you read the information supplied with this video, i stated it was not our best work but was all i could get together for now, because of the weather, so sorry to disappoint you, i look forward to watching your much better offering

[binaryclock01]

@desidudes78 Yep.. bad video... couldn't see anything really.
