Exceed F-4 E Phantom EDF Jolly Roger Maiden Crash

Tim (AKA: TinkerMan) flying his new F-4 E Phantom for the 1st time, and his Very First EDF JET.

This plane is SMALL. Very Agile and VERY Hard to see if it gets at all too far away.

On his first attempt, steering Expo wasnt on, so the smallest input caused him to vector hard left and hit the grass before takeoff.

The 2nd attempt, it tracked straight, took off and before he could get a feel for it, it was out of sight. With its small size and agile ability, instead of turning back towards us, it kept rolling and rolling until it hit the ground.

After spending several hours and a bottle of CA Glue with Zap, the plane was back together, minus landing gear. It was time to Hand Launch.

His hand launch was too high, but managed to recover from it. Being used to his other planes, he tried to hard bank left, but this planes elevator just couldnt pull it around fast enough and into the dirt it went again!

We await the rebuild again, and another attempt to fly an EDF JET.


Pilot: Tim (AKA: TinkerMan)
Cameraman: Zack Griffin (12 yrs old)

I would be all nerves too with everyone yelling.

[RCRedBaron]

@kenbouy : OMG, I remember when he flew this jet.... LOL... So Long ago! And look at him now, Flying Giant Scale Turbine Jets! Thanks for the viewing and comment!

[JetFlyyer]

do the wings normally look like that?

[RCRedBaron]

@JetFlyyer : No, the one he is flying in this video was Version 1. For some reason they angled the wings down. 6months later they corrected it. So all these sold now, the wings are correct. Thanks for viewing and for the question.

Two words - flight sim

[narnyslip]

There is a cross where the plane crashed!!!!! lol

[homebrewman23]

Try a flight simulator, I hate to say it but you are part of the problem, not the solution. Jesus did you even buy a trainer plane first? Why are you flying so far away, you have to circle the plane back before it out of sight. Why did you try to fly again the next day when you clearly arent competent as a pilot yet
