"Blue Angels" F-18 (SkyMaster) Turbine

[@DRAWDYRC]

So we had the opportunity to watch our friend fly this very nice SkyMaster F-18 in the Blue Angels theme and what a beautiful jet this is. It sounded awesome and looked even better. Very excited with this one. The ending was a little rough due to the air either being used up or leaking out. But the plane was fine just needs a little work on the bottom. Hope everyone enjoys the video! Thanks a ton for all the support in 2024 and hope it continues to get better. THANK YOU TO EVERYONE!

Gotta love those air retracts... 🙄 I don't know why guys still run air. Such a PITA and seeing heartbreaking reliability issues like this time and time again just proves that electric is the way to go.

I would say there are many benefits. Being able to cycle by hand during setup and just the fact that they can operate more scale if setup properly. They are more like the real thing minus the hydraulic fluid. Some people do prefer the complex setups believe it or not. Totally agree that electric gear have come a long way and are simple to the average person. Both are great!

@@carlbooth9408 Absolute agree.....after years of fight the air issues, I converted everyone of my turbines to electric.....what a sense of security knowing when I hit the switch they are coming down!!!!!
