I don't get the comment about not doing high Alpha with an F18. My FMS 70mm F18 does awsome high alphas and she does them nice and slow with no thrust vectoring. Other than that i have to say, this is the best rc video i have ever seen. Please keep it up.

Awesome flying!! I have picked up one in a garage sale not built person is moving so needed to get rid of it. I haven't opened the box yet - its was still sealed but I peeked in and looks like the real deal! so will see what it needs if anything. He says it just sat on his shelf in the basement of his house! need to pick up some 6S 6000s or maybe some more 5000s (which I have some). I see your also running the NX8. Cool!! Nice vid!

Awesome videos! Curious about how you feel about the F4? I know you said this new jet is you all around favorite, but does the F4 have any nasty traits? I have flown DF Jets from back in the days when the engine was nitro powered. I had an F 15 and it was a blast! I haven’t gotten a battery powered DFJ yet, but the Phantom looks really nice! Thanks and keep up the great video reviews!!

Outstanding video and review. Nice battery bay mod! Love your livery, excellent work. Did mine in the German "Bronze Tiger" scheme: kzbin.info/www/bejne/n6LInYujfNCceNk The "Plus" upgrade is a game changer, converted some 20 Rx's now. Outstanding for the EuroFighter but for the F18 and F4, completely changed the flight characteristics to something incredible! My Euro is on 8S, primarily for extra thrust getting off grass. 8S or 6S on this one is more a personal preference so since you fly off asphalt, 6S is probably the best alternative, lighter flies better (although my F4's and F16 fly better on 8S). On my Euro I'm using an 8S SMC 4400 HiV. You should get some SMC HiV packs and you'll notice a huge upgrade in power and flight time over the HRB's. Keep your videos coming!🤙
@Connorhola2 ай бұрын
@@hughwiedman9711 thanks so much for the feedback! If I did have a grass field, most of my jets would be 8S but because I do fly off asphalt, I don’t need the extra power, even though it would be nice to have. I have around nine more jets to review so the videos are definitely going to keep coming coming 💪 so stay tuned!

Good question, me personally I would not the stock 6s has plenty of power and the extra cost if the 8s version plus extra batteries is a lot and the added weight in my opinion is not worth it. Way better bang for your buck and the 6s performance is not lacking in any way!

Go over to Red beard RC reviews there you can see a 64 landing the way it should. We took a bell sander to the bottom of the wing made it. flat. we reshape the top of the wing, so the High Point is down 30% of the total cord. Put reflex in the ailerons disable the ailerons fly the whole thing from the tail 0:32 not has it tamed this beast it is predictable and even enjoyable to land
