That's crazy. I just bought the Kyosho F-16 55mm EDF a week ago. This one is 90% like the $200 plug and play Kyosho edf, except for the added ailerons and change in the ducting inlet splitter, and cleaner wiring on your model there! I kinda feel ripped off after looking at all these EDF's from nitroplanes..but that's what you get for not researching (or impulse buying an EDF!). I have enjoyed the 3 flights on mine so far, and plan to mod it a little as I get comfortable (rudder perhaps).
There is no movable rudder on this plane, which definitely helps with landings in crosswinds, but rudder must be understood. You need to how to use in coordination with the ailerons.
Haha. Sometimes I think Im going to crash too. And I do once in a while. Crashes are part of the learning curve and every flight is a Lesson for me. Thanks for the kind words.
this guy is usually running products given to him by various rc companies and shops.. on top of his vast experience as a rc flyer and his incredible knowledge doing all this... to those who wonder if they can afford it... if ur worried about affording it, DONT BUY IT. something i have learned doing this hobby is ur gonna break urself doing this sort of thing. it can be highly addicting..
Thanks. Your right. I only started getting a few planes and helis in the last few months to be tested. For 40 years, I paid, And if a person does not crash, then they are life long toys. I appreciate your comments,.
Sorry NightFlyyer, I dont know where I got the idea your name was Eric sorry. Must have looked in the wrong spot. Anyway thanx 4 your reply and yes we like it, very cool NightFlyyer, my son recons hes going to save up and get one:-)
Believe me, the amount of time that I spend making a video and producing it cost more than the planes, but if you read my Bio, you will know about it more. In the last 40 years, I spent over $200K on model airplanes so that I have become trusted enough to test a few for the companies, so I am honored.
well realy like it but with no landing gear i don't think it would fair to well because i live in the middle of a vinyard and only concrete to land on lol
Haha. My firebird Phantom has no wheels either. Hand launch takes way less time, but your idea would work, But for most people, that is a very narrow runway for a plane with no rudder. Thanks.
Actually, I took all the foam wrapping off. It was well packed, as I didnt think you would want to waste your time with the Bubble Wrap removal. And piece of crap. I think it looks and flys better than and balsa wood plane I would try to make. LOL.
NICE DAVE fast son of a botch cant wait to fly my starmax f5 get one of those hobby-lobby they are sweet cold country flying at its finist thanks dave rotorwash46....
Hey, I need some help. Last time I took a ducted fan out, I gave it a nice crash because of the BEC. It totally shut down and gave me no control. Is this one the same way? Do you just time it?
The proper operation of a bec is to supply voltage to the RX. The ESC has a bec built in and the power runs in the cable to the Throttle channel. My units all give me warning to back off the throttle and fly in at half. If its too late and the motor quits, they are all designed to continue to supply the bec voltage to the rx so you can glide in with control. Shutting throttle down, & going back up usually re arms it but you have to fly at low throttle. I time my stuff for no more than 6 min.
No, but have seen a real model Harrier in flight. I have helis for vert takeoffs anyway. LOL I have flown the XFY1 Pogo however and have a video on that you can see and also my video on "will it fly or wont it"d is a vert take off Landing machine I designed and fly.
Hi Dave! Foam models have come a long way in the past few years, will be interesting to see the progress 5 years from now. I would like to see better appearance, i.e panel lines less pronounced or eliminated (would save on tooling cost), some sort of smooth skin over the styro (could paint panel lines). The Parkzone Corsair looks like alligator skin. More retract options, (taking off and landing is half the fun). More PNP models. I have a over dozen of their crappy radios laying around.
Thanks. I'm with you. I'm more into flying and not looking at it on the ground, but these machines are getting closer to looking pretty good.. They look great to most and knowing how long it used to take to build balsa models like these, I like them. I think we are going to see more and more improvements for sure and the flying is exhilarating.
The CG on mine is back exactly 17 inches from the nose. The Kv of the Brushless is not disclosed, but is using a 30 amp speed controller. It is an OUT runner, by the way.
We are really fortunate to be a part in this hobby now with all the neat, inexpensive and quality products coming out. I remember my first plane was a made from balsa and I had used dope, paper and silk to cover the wings.
My first radio was a kraft 3 channel and back then that was a very nice radio.
Thank you so much for your time making these videos.
It's actually fun to see how much fun you have flying! I would like to thank you for the support your videos have offered and to say guys like you and your cameraman is the reason why the hobby is growing much faster than I've seen in the 30 years I've been a part of it.
yeah i wanna get me an A-10 Thunderbolt II thats always been one of my favoret jets since i was a kid its just a flying gun barrel that says F YOU when it shows up to the party
Was it just me or did you also hear a 'bang' on one of the high speed fly bys? As if maybe the speed of sound was reached. LOL That sucker is FAST!!! Awesome jet! 5*
Good idea with the tape! But I'd be more worried about getting crap into the fan than scraping up the bottom.
I think you might get a neck strap so you can launch without putting yer mouth on the radio. See my Stryker launching video... I guess you probly know this though.
Haha. Thanks. I don't like neckstraps or trays very well, and still would need to bump the throttle up with my mouth, as my other hand is on the ailerons and elevator, strap or not.. What I need ia a 3rd hand. LOL. Thanks for the kind words.
Hi Dave. I'm glad you were able to test an F-16. That is one of my all-time favorite jets (Thunderbirds). Are you planning to re-test it when wind conditions get better? Well, great job as usual. Have a fantastic day.
Well Dave, I'm convinced you're a real pro... during the launch at 4:30 the "sissy launch run and toss" was completely missing. That left handed launch actually looked pretty well composed! And sheesh, paint that thing NEON colors, it's so fast and hard to see with that realistic paint job! LOL So, how fast do you think it flies? Landings at 8mph, top speed at 50...70...more? Thanks for your efforts!
Thanks kindly. I appreciate that. Been launching like that for years, so it gets easier. I was afraid the bottom was gonna come off when I launched, though, with those magnets. I had to keep that in mind.LOL. It is faster than my F-35 and that flies at 95mph! Gotta get a radar gun.
That's one aerodynamically shaped jet, if the canopy and bottom are held on with magnets, and yet they don't fall off while you're ~zipping~ that plane back and forth over the field and with those HIGH winds! Great plane, super pilot, and let's not forget the GREAT camera man! Thanks guys!
((See if you can get Jeff to give us a "sissy launch" for entertainment value, only, of course.))
I still remember your closing the van window as he tried to get that BCX through the passenger compartment!
Haha. He is usually running the camera but Ill see. I usually like to launch my own planes, cause plenty of people who have offered and tried to do it threw it right into the ground, so I backed off that...LOL.
i thought for a moment that i seen this video before because ive seen you fix those linkage right out of the box before..... then iseen the cartwheel.nice plane verry robust..........thanks.
Thanks. Yep All these need the linkages beefed up. This time they were just loose, but at least heavier steel rods. In my case, I just put the rods in the holes that gave it the most control, and that was too much.
great vid 5 stars,, dave what about sr71. 7 ch really like to see that one in action before i buy so i can explain to my wife...new month new toy..so i can use you as escape goat!!! btw great flying
Well if you dont fly in 23 MPH winds like I did, you can land nicely on the grass. Im in wet weeds and soft ground as the snow is melting and the plane does not slide well. LOL. But is is not broke. If it is not broke we call that a hard landing. If it is broke we call that a crash landing.
All planes and helis will roll or bank in flight, edf or not. There is less body torque on and edf that cause rolling than a prop job, but you still must keep watch over the aileron controls at all times.
If you have a better radio for this plane put some exponential throw on the elevator and dual rates.Don`t reduce mecanically the big throw because you can use it for landing to land at high alpha when elevator is not so eficient,just to protect that intake from any damage.
I personally do not use expos and plenty of people do not have that kind of radio. Believe me, I wont have any problems with landings by moving those rods in with this plane as it is so light. It needs very minimum controls to fly. And since the 23 mph wind threw me up in the air there, cause the plane is so light, I over controlled. But yes, I could go to the trouble of doing all that radio changing, but Id rather fly than be tweaking. For the pro though, with extra radios around, fine.
Whey! Lovely little Landing, just to inform you, i will have my first Blade 400 Flight on March 7th (My birthday Yay!) After Months of saving pocket money i should
Thanks very kindly. Take your time with the B400 as that is a small beast too. Happy bd early and good luck with the heli. Thanks for the kind comments and rating.
That was fast Dave and love how it climbs vertical with no problem at all mate but it is nice to see the master of r/c fight still have the odd bad landing like the rest of us,still well worth the 5*
Haha. Thanks. We all crash, ya know. LOL. I should probably not been flying in that heavy of a wind, as it is so light of a plane, but I enjoyed the challenge and also glad you did too.
Yeah, I know. this canopy was already built and I did not feel like tryin to take it apart. The windows are tinted, so it is a stealth pilot in there. LOL.
you say no rudder, but i bet it wouldnt be hard to make one for it ?

Aswell i am planning to by my first EDF after tonnes of practising on my rc simulator, bu with edf does it start to bank at highspeeds in real life?

Thanks. Pretty strong.
All planes and helis will roll or bank in flight, edf or not. There is less body torque on and edf that cause rolling than a prop job, but you still must keep watch over the aileron controls at all times.

If you have a better radio for this plane put some exponential throw on the elevator and dual rates.Don`t reduce mecanically the big throw because you can use it for landing to land at high alpha when elevator is not so eficient,just to protect that intake from any damage.

I personally do not use expos and plenty of people do not have that kind of radio. Believe me, I wont have any problems with landings by moving those rods in with this plane as it is so light. It needs very minimum controls to fly. And since the 23 mph wind threw me up in the air there, cause the plane is so light, I over controlled. But yes, I could go to the trouble of doing all that radio changing, but Id rather fly than be tweaking. For the pro though, with extra radios around, fine.

That was fast Dave and love how it climbs vertical with no problem at all mate but it is nice to see the master of r/c fight still have the odd bad landing like the rest of us,still well worth the 5*

Haha. Thanks. We all crash, ya know. LOL. I should probably not been flying in that heavy of a wind, as it is so light of a plane, but I enjoyed the challenge and also glad you did too.
