@BrianPhillipsRC4 жыл бұрын
I know what you're saying, but as with full scale flying and many other muscle memory based skills, you tend to get better with loads of practice. All I can say to ease your concerns, is that you will "get it" at some point. It takes time and repetition. As long as you're a little better pilot each time you fly, and you learn from each mistake, you will get there - I promise. You probably think I'm trying to sell you something here, but I'm really not. This is not just BS...you can do it...but you have to take the time to work out these nerves. Also, as you've certainly already figured out, and I'm sure it annoys you to no end, but flying RC is a whole different skill set from flying full scale ;) Knowing about flight characteristics and HOW things work, and how they're supposed to work, does not replace the fact that your thumb is now in control... Here's some advice that you can put into practice TODAY - Increase EXPO on all three axis by 15-25% from what you're running now, and you'll notice an immediate improvement in your flight performance, but you will eventually want to back that down to closer to where I recommend, or the manual recommends. Try not to exceed 50% on BNF planes with AS3X and SAFE...as this CAN cause some issues. Keep at it. This takes time, and loads of patience! Don't overthink things too much. MAKE A FLIGHT PLAN BEFORE YOU GO UP! Use a spotter, when you're new at RC it's tough to "lead" the plane the way you need to too have success.

This is one of my favorite planes. I find the nose gear to be weak and hard to keep in straight alignment if you bump the nose on landing. I don't care for the foam slot for the battery - I have an assortment of batteries I can use with this plane and many will not fit in the slot - removing some foam from the slot and also from the inside of the hatch may be necessary if you want to use various size batteries. My plane turned out to be tail heavy - I don't know if that is true for most. I used a hatch from my old Parkzone version that I had put a Snoopy pilot in. I tried half a dozer various yellow paints and never found one that matched exactly to the yellow used on the airplane - so my hatch yellow is slightly different than my plane yellow.

It didn't want to stop when you landed it, kinda needs brakes when you land, newbie question, do any rc planes have brakes?
@BrianPhillipsRC3 жыл бұрын
Yes, but it's very rare, and what planes use for BREAKS are usually flaps, which are the inboard (toward the fuselage) control surface that BOTH go down. They're used to lower the stall speed, allow for a steeper AOA (Angle of attack) (better visibility for a REAL pilot), and so you can fly DOWN to the runway for landing at a SLOWER speed without ripping the landing gear off. There's also added DRAG from the flaps being deployed. Of course, on "full scale" AKA REAL planes, they have breaks, since they taxi, and the breaks do help slow down the plane. Only on the most sophisticated, usually larger planes, do people put electric or air actuated breaks. Some will use Air Breaks, which are NOT flaps, but usually used with flaps, and deployed in a few different ways. Scale RC officiants love Air Breaks. Very cool, and functional detail.

Hey Brian, What might this mean for people without these smart batteries with this T28 in terms of getting them to fit? Is it ok to tape stuff to them?
@BrianPhillipsRC3 жыл бұрын
Should be no biggie with a 4S 2200mah. If it fits TOO tight, you can carve, but try to carve just one direction, then you can go back to using SMART packs at some point when or if you adopt them. They are SOOO good. You can have 1/3 the lipos you have now and fly about the same amount, with a larger margin of safety, in my opinion.

Hey BrianPhilips, I like your video's! I just bought this Trojan T28. I have level flight on 50% throttle, but it goes up (climb) when I go 100% throttle. Does it just need more down elevator trim or is it a other problem? (Beginner Pilot) Thanks for reply in advance!
@BrianPhillipsRC2 жыл бұрын
This can be a function of SAFE. Are you flying in SAFE? (Safe is auto-leveling, when you let go of the sticks) If so, when you come out of SAFE, and fly with just AS3X (Stabilizaiton - NOT Auto-Leveling) doe the plane do the same? If not, then it's a function of SAFE, and you'll have that with full throttle.

I learned to fly last summer, on all high wing 3S type trainers...I recently flew my new T-28 ( my 1st low wing ) for the first time and all the guys at the field kept telling me to keep the speed up or it will stall....I didn't notice any bad tendencies when flying it, other than on my maiden flight , as it kept pitching up so I had to land it and mechanically give my elevator a lot of down setting....I used a 3S and I did not use SAFE at all........... QUESTION: what do you think about its stall tendencies.......worse...same as most low wings ...better than most.......any tips you can offer?.... ....thanks
@BrianPhillipsRC2 жыл бұрын
Maybe you need to get your trims right, but this plane doesn't stall especially easily. Are you banking sharp? Keep your nose pointed down (trick - coordinate by pointing BOTH Thumbs the SAME way), then you'll keep her flying, even if you lose some vertical lift in a turn. It's a "Feel" thing - takes some time to feel it out on a new plane...but I can't say any of my T-28's have been especially bad about stalling. When I think about planes that will BITE - I think of the 70mm Viper Jet...that thing will loop smooth, and clean, and FLIP right out from under a base leg turn and leave you wondering what the heck happened! But the T-28 is like on the other side of the universe from that plane ;)

Hi Brian, great work as usual on the maiden, unbox and this 2nd thoughts video. I just maidened mine today using a 4S 2200mah and it flies exactly how I saw it here. Pretty happy - except I noticed a strong vibration (and noise) at full throttle (between 85 to 100%). I thought the prop needed balancing so I tried that technique of yours with tape but that didn't do any good. I checked the engine mounting and all but it's pretty firm and solid so not sure what's causing it. Did you notice the same on your model? Thanks and looking forward to the next new maiden/2nd thoughts video. :)
@BrianPhillipsRC3 жыл бұрын
I didn't, but if you have a vibration, did you check the see if the prop is bent out of square??? This too can cause the issue. Secondly, the "tape method" is really just guess and check, so gotta kinda keep going till it works...
@flyandplayAUSTRALIA3 жыл бұрын
@@BrianPhillipsRC Checked and found the prop is dead straight. Maybe the vibration is normal? I listened in to yours and other folks' videos and it does sound similar on the full throttle pass and so far it's flying great after with my 3rd and 4th flights. Thanks again Brian!
