[@andyfermanich9956]

I don't see any reason you should be embarrassed about anything. You have something you love doing and you work hard to do it. Your intense geek out about the hobby is what makes your channel good.

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

I'm very glad you see it that way, and don't take it for some sort of strange brag session. I, like you said, geek out on this stuff pretty wildly, and love doing it! Just don't want to rub it in anyone's face. Thanks Andy!

[@yf222000]

First, you’re a lucky man, to have a lady that is really supportive of the hobby. Second. It’s cool that you show people that you and your family is about as typical as any hard working families out there with clutters in their house. 👍. Thirdly. Damn! All those airplanes all over the place!! 😂😂😂

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

YES, YES, and YES!

THE NEXT TIME my wonderful wife talks about how many planes I have.....I'M FIRING UP THIS VERY VIDEO LOL. 😂

[@old-rcplane-phart]

I just sent THIS to my fiancee of 30+ years. She NO longer can complain about MY 40 (& growing) planes! WOW! 😳🤯

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

You're welcome ;)

[@fastrack59]

Your fleet has grown exponentially since your last video on your inventory. You might wanna consider building a warehouse type hangar in your backyard. Your channel popularity doesn’t look like it’s slowing down anytime soon. Not surprisingly as you give out awesome videos! Glad to have great content creators like yourself! Keep up the good work bro! 👍👍👍👏👏👏👏

[@johnliebe8189]

Brian I used a pvc cutter that can easily cut up to 2 inch diameter pvc pipe. It is ratcheted to make it easy to use as it cuts. Big benefits include no pvc crumbs and associated mess; less waste; less noise; costs way less ($12) than a chop saw; and takes less total time since you don’t have as much cleanup. Congrats on getting your hangar organized and making it easier to store your airplanes. Great job on demonstrating how to build pvc stands. I built pvc racks to mount on the garage walls since I don’t have the floor space in the garage. Thanks for making your videos. Always informative and entertaining!

[@kennycastro]

Agreed! I just use a cutter by Husky. It is great and is easier than a saw.

[@Carvernation]

I can respect the honesty! Real life can be something else. You’re doing your thing man. I have 5 kids, so I know how real life things can get. Take care Brian.

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

I appreciate that!

[@Barnz1980]

Holy crap!! I knew you would have heaps of RC planes but that's way more then I thought there would be 😮😮

[@ayrton884]

you are blesed to have such a big home-hangar and a beautiful track where you can fly your planes just in front of your house!!!

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

Yes, blessed we are - but keep in mind, none of this has happened by accident. This was all planned and paid for by Megan and me...in fact, we'll be paying for it for many more years, but I wouldn't have it any other way (Well, maybe paid for - LOL)

[@pickywood7906]

You do have a challenge for sure. I found by removing the wings, I can better manage my available space. Racks on the wall for fuselage, and I built a rack with pegs on a section of the wall, BUT, on hinges so I can stack winge (20) and lift the rack to the ceiling, out of the way and lots of head clearance. Works GREAT. For the aircrafts where you can't or won't remove wings, that is another challenge. (rafters)

[@AJayTVRC]

Great video, Brian. I am totally jealous of you. It’s like entering Ali Baba’s cave. ;)

[@ironmover5800]

Amazing ! I figured you had a lot of planes but never thought you had almost every plane you have reviewed , good info ! Thanks for the idea’s

[@barrywilson1842]

I'm a Patreon. Brian, I made these PVC stands a couple of years ago but out of bigger diameter pvc. And I put wheels on them to move them around easier. Huge advice! Run wooden dowels down through the inside of the pvc. Locks everything all together, makes them 10 times stronger. If you don't then the stands will slowly lean over and then fall with everything on them. Unless you run fishing line from the ceiling or similar to hold them upright. The dowels make them more mobile. And cut pieces with a pipe cutter and you won't have any mess.

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

Thanks for the idea Barry, and thanks too for being one of our wonderful Patreons!!!

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

We did sister up on the last ones we built, using some steel safety net poles from our trampoline, which we never setup ;) This made a HUGE difference!

[@jamescwintersjr8131]

I have a ratcheting PVC pipe cutter that takes 3-4 seconds to go through 3/4" Schedule 40 and you don't have any waste, no mess to clean up, no chance of breathing in PVC dust, and there are no burrs caused by a sawing method. A little sanding on all ends to round them a little is going help make the assembly and break-down easier. A light coating of soap, baby oil, veg oil, or whatever you have on hand, will help the pieces slide together with less force. Thanks for the great videos! I'm new to your channel and RCing and I'm looking at the AeroScout 1.1, as my first plane.

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

I heard about these and sounds awesome...like our PEX cutter, only bigger. Thanks for the tips! Glad I can incorporate them on my next stand...materials are waiting to be built ;)

[@jamescwintersjr8131]

@@BrianPhillipsRC I went with the AeroScout S 2 1.1m that comes with Smart 2200mAh 3S 11.1V 30C LiPo battery, and since I have ADD (lol) and can't wait for two hours for that little battery to recharge so I also bought a 100C battery to get me back in the air and fly longer. On the third hand launch over grass, a sudden cross wind pitched it over and it crashed on the pavement I was near and crunched the front landing gear. Doh! I was convinced by the sales person to buy a $15 bottle of EPO Foam glue, which I think I left on the back of my motorcycle, that I rode 45 minutes from my home. As it turns out, Super Glue works pretty well for minor repairs. Are there any other EPO Foam friendly glues that you could recommend?

[@steelrainfpv3383]

The chop saw may be a little quicker, but it's louder with a lot more mess. I use a purpose built pvc cutting tool that's relatively simple to use and cheap, and it's worked out pretty well for my storage needs.

[@JTMarlin8]

Yup, the ratcheting PVC cutters from Home Depot work great and give you a cleaner, burr-free cut. Get the Husky brand in the plumbing aisle.

I used the 3 ft clamps, on ceiling trusses And also flag pole holders on the wall with dowel.s . My wife is happy I cleaned up the garage. You have great ideas and I’ve learned how to program the electronics , Thanks.

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

NICE! Glad we could help some, and Megan is amazing! So glad she puts up with me, and this crazy habit I'm trying to promote all the time ;)

[@lemastji]

Love the tour and suggestions. Also if you don't want to work the saw for PVC, there's an actual hand PVC cutter that works almost as quickly as the saw and leaves no mess. It's still a million times better than a hack saw.

[@michelpetrus]

Oh sh**t ! Looks like there is no way out of plane hoarding, I need help too, I have planes sleeping next me. Any advice to stop buying planes ? (outside of stopping watch your videos😄)

[@dnciz]

I watch tons of videos on RC flying and you two bring the best content and quality no matter what level. You two have reviewed many things from airplanes to storage that have helped ne and I am sure others make the right decisions. Today I watched a video on a plane am considering buying and your guidance is remarkable. Then I watched and anmazingly knowledgable rack building video. Thank you for always being honest and fun. You may not realize how much help you both have given. I love the format and you/ your lovely wife are awesome. Thanks, A BIG FAN

Awesome collection!! For me it’s just easier to rent two storage units and just put my planes in there. I have one for my EDFs and for my prop planes. I know it’s expensive but i have ocd and cannot have clutter in my house. Sometimes it can be a pain going back and forth but I can’t imagine keeping the hundreds of planes in my garage.

Looks great pal and great ideals.. I also have used that method but my newest works best, I install shelf racking on the wall tracks then i use shelve brackets and snape them in the tracks. With all the different slots i can move them up and down for the different sizes of the planes. I believe i posted a video on are channel some time back showing them and i think at that time i had like 85 Now i think im past 100.. So bad but so good lol..

[@meshall9586]

Pfff, luckily my extra garage looks quite the same, mostly stuffed with rc cars, rc sailboats and a couple of planes! Funny to see how many space hobbies take in real life, not only rc but also a couple of sub boards, mtb bikes and race bikes. Thx for sharing...it almost feels like home!

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

Totally! We made one HUGE mistake when we built our house in the country. We put in a large 3 Car garage, and we should have made it a 4-5 car with 2-3 of the stalls tandem parking. We needed room immediately, and as time passes, and we collect machinery, it has been a battle keeping up with storage. In fact, it's ironic, we JUST finally hung up our pictures from moving 3 years ago...and this video was filmed the same time frame... Moving sucks, especially after 12+ years in a house. When we move from here, in like 100 years, it's gonna be terrible!

[@babygotbass2005]

Nice collection Brian! Hey just a tip. To make a stand that’s a little more sturdy use something 1/2” thicker for the base and sides. Buy Tees that are reduced on one hole. For example a 1” x 3/4” x 1” tee. I made mine that way and it’s way more sturdy and I could stuff use the smaller pvc to hang each plane on. The Tees cost a little more but not bad at all. Also use a ratcheting cutter if you’re wanting to avoid the mess

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

Sure, we debated about this too, but at the end of the day, it came down to cost, and it was gonna be CRAZY more expensive...like 3X the cost or more!

[@babygotbass2005]

@@BrianPhillipsRC yeah I priced some after watching your video and agree. Thanks for the reply. Love the F4U-4 video man those planes are beautiful. Got me pricing them now

[@fungiforge232]

Something you might check out if you haven’t already. Instead of getting the white pvc go over to electrical and look at the gray pvc conduit you can get it heavier and generally cheaper.

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

I will look into this, but are there as many "T"s - aren't electrical usually SWEEPS?

They do make tees and elbows for it. It’s also known as charlotte pipe sometimes

Thank you guys. I own a single plane, a 2-channel Cessna 182. It’s very barebones but man it’s been such a joy flying it around. I only just got into the RC hobby and what a beautiful world it is. Your collection is astounding. I don’t know if I’ll ever have as many planes myself but I look forward to building my own collection over time. I think I want my first real trainer to be sport cub s2 - heard great things about it. But then I want to move onto that citation longitude you got on your Boeing table. It’s a beautiful scale plane and it looks like it flies great. Thank you both for the great info, I will be diving deep into this channel to learn as much as I can.

[@jpeterman57]

A PVC cutting hand tool is no dust and no material wasted and nearly as fast as the chop saw. Lightly chamfer the outer edges with a utility knife or sandpaper. If there is no intention to use adhesive then a light coating of grease of some sort would allow rapid disassembly. I would go a step further and glue the horizontal supports to the tees. Makes it easier to twist that section off the vertical supports. Could even heat the horizontal leg a little after assembly and bend it slightly upwards to provide a little security from bumps and wind or whatever.

[@stevendegiorgio3143]

The foam pipe insulation works great for protecting the surface of the wings.But you need a ton of that stuff.

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

yes, but I've found that unless it real heavy, there's not any damage. My issue is that these racks do tend to bend and sway a bit more than I'd like to admit.

The good idea fairy just sprinkled some sprinkly's on me. Build a miniture half moon shaped old school hanger near the new landing strip with a old school wind sock nearby the hanger. Maybe a WW-2 theme. Might be a cool place for storage/workshop for the collection. Lol, I'm definitely thinking about one myself

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

Like this - www.archbuildings.com/blog/product/20x58-steel-arch-farming-storage-building/ That would be cool, but we want to get a real plane inside...I don't know how we would do a door broadside on that type of building? Also, I want it to be 20ft sidewalls, or possible 16 foot, with the door on the wide side, which would be unusual, and probably requiring a steel span AKA way more money. We haven't even 100% settled on our building side, but we DO now have two 40' HQ (9.5' Tall) containers with doors on both ends. They have been instrumental in helping us clear out some space in our basement for the installation of our backup batteries, which will be happening not next week, but the following week, if all goes to plan. Once this is done, we have plans to finish the living quarters side of the basement, then get the shop setup in a more permanent fashion. Once this is done, we should be working out the "bugs" on where exactly the "dam gift shop" will sit...since we'll need to build that pad too. It's been a lot of work, and we're really only just starting, so can't wait to get this all behind us, so we can be using it all! It's gonna be an epic journey, and hope you'll be following along ;)

[@ChrisZwolinski]

I would glue the top and the base and a few sections, just for my own piece of mind. I'd also put cut up pool noodles over the pipe for a little extra friction. Overwise and awesomely simplistic and easy build. I have a similar Idea for deck chair cushions. Just can't believe how much PVC is now compared to a couple years ago. The clamps are a really good idea for your larger heavier planes too. And you can adjust the width easily. Time to sell off some of the stock? I yield to the camera crew on this question.

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

Yes Chris, and I haven't yet knocked over a rack, but we did end up reinforcing them vertically. We're going to liquidate a few here and there. Sorry for any delay if you're waiting...we've been so swamped with a link-changeover...a terrible process where we have to update all our main links b/c hh decided to switch vendors for their tracking, and it's taken 4 weeks of Megan's time so far ;( and less than half way there!!!!! But we have to do it...100% necessary. Thank GOD for Megan!

[@dave1kearsey]

Hi Brian, I have a storage question. You've stored some of the planes for a long time. Have you noticed any bending in the wing (maybe at the wing root, or anything) due to the weight of the fuselage? I realize the planes are pretty light, but some wings are not very thick. I have about 25 planes still in boxes, but your stand makes me want to assemble everything I have. Nice room. Good video. Thanks.

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

I haven't. I thought they would get more hangar rash, but really, this seems to be an issue only when I knock one off working on the water heater (just happened to my AT6 - broke the rudder - I was pretty pissed, but LOL anyway!!!)

Thanks for the update! Neat to see how storage has changed over the years, and how RC planes have evolved.

[@westhobbiesrc8051]

Two ideas, one get a PVC cutter! You will thank me later LOL cut up the 2 inch PVC pipe zero mess clean cut every time! Two, get some pool noodles to cover the PVC extensions out that the planes rest on. It will stop any damage done to the foam.

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

WHAT?! You can cut 2" PVC with those things?!?!? I already have one, I think....but I use it to cut pex. Also, no loss of length if you cut it that way, right?

[@westhobbiesrc8051]

@@BrianPhillipsRC yes sir! Up to 2 inch PVC! It’s the ratcheting kind, no loss in length, you will get a clean perfect cut every time unless it’s a really short piece under an inch and sometimes it goes sideways a little bit. It is the only way I cut PVC anymore LOL tired of those little shavings everywhere!

[@joshbutera3583]

I just sold all my RC plane stuff like an idiot. But got an Xbox series X out of it. But after seeing this I’m on a plane coming to your house. Even though I have no idea were you live. But we are going to fly!

[@SOFTWING]

Hi brian next time your at menards ask for a ratcheting PVC pipe cutter it works great and no mess and fast.

[@laurenceboag2325]

Some great Great ideas. Fun to see your collection. Always wondered about it!

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

Thanks! People will start asking again in about 3 weeks - LOL - but we probably won't share any more dungeon tours for a while :)

[@franciscoduran3688]

Where the kids hang out while filming! xD Thumbs up for your kids for having so much patience! :) :)

[@franciscoduran3688]

Wow, that amount of planes is crazy. You´re lucky to have so much space there! :) Good tip for that rack :)

[@shravanbhardwaj3350]

Hey Brian! Lovely collection, another idea is to auction or giveaway all your unwanted and broken planes/parts to get rid of storage while others benifet as well

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

Have you ever shipped a plane?

[@shravanbhardwaj3350]

@@BrianPhillipsRC Yes i have, although i only fly UMX's so that would be a big issue for you. Didn't consider that 😅

[@stevenbaker9327]

All of my UMX are in their boxes stacked on edge on shelving units...the 800mm -1.2 warbirds all hang from the rafters.

[@mikepi660]

Love your info, videos Brian,,, PLUS you are a lucky man,, you have a wonderful wife who works with you,,, shares your hobby,,,,,supports you,,, She is a lucky woman as you stay home, love your hobby and not wonder off in other areas.. with other distractions . There is extra, no time available for other distractions :) :) :)

[@LifenSantaBarbara]

Omg Brian, has anyone ever told you that you might have a problem maybe you should seek some help on? That's an insane amount of plane's buddy! I'm envious for sure. Love the plane rack idea!

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

Yes ;)

[@anthonycarroll518]

Loved seeing your hanger. Brian, with all that land you need to build a Pole Barn for all your planes and farm equipment. I have built similar PVC racks for my planes. I don't have nearly as many as you though, WOW!

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

YES, we do badly, but we have a few irons in the fire at the moment. We had been planning to have a building up already, but when the neighbors call and offer to sell the land, you gotta grab it :)

[@miles123rc3]

OMG you absolute LEGENDS!!!! Thank you so much for showing us the hanger!! Wanted to see that for EVER!!! I don't feel so bad having so many planes now ha ha ha

[@Sabadoctor]

Great video. Best storage video on KZbin. Thank you.

[@domscorpi9775]

hello, very good video.... I learned a lot of things, especially since I too am trying to find a solution for storing my planes. and your solution is brilliant! just a small question, for some planes (focke wulf 190, viper 90) why leave the landing gear out? will you save space if the gears are retract into the wings of the plane?

[@rogerkane5750]

your guys Rock ....so awesome always enjoy all your videos ....cheers From New Zealand ...you have given so much support to so many people cheers Roger

[@leomcnamara8711]

Great lineup! Thanks for sharing...

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

You're welcome, and thanks for being here with us!

[@buzzscoob1692]

In the few weeks i have been watching and learning from your videos i have always wondered how you managed to store all those planes. This video definitely answered that question, i think you have done a great job with the space you have available (which is HUGE) compared to the average shed or garage we have here in the UK.

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

This is an OLD one too - we have one since then if you're curious ;) P.S. We're trying to build a 60'X80'X20' building, but need to get our pond built first, and then we'll be able to help solve some of our storage woes.

[@buzzscoob1692]

Hi Brian, I have been looking for a more rescent storage video bit can only find this one and another from 2 years ago?

[@ramsandrzr3706]

Wow that’s a lot of planes I have a good start but nothing like what you have that’s insane. love the PVC pipe rack going to build one this weekend👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@icontrolthevideo]

Instead of using a power saw to cut PVC, there’s a specialized hand tool for that purpose. It looks like a large pair of curved scissors with a ratcheting action that make it fast and easy to penetrate PVC. Does not produce dust like a saw does. Find it in the plumbing section.

[@deankeese2377]

👍👍 end the mess for sure with a pvc cutter by hand as mentioned. Just be sure to wear gloves to protect from blisters. Love the vids...

[@zanderflander7880]

That’s a nice little collection!

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

Thanks! Even more crazy today ;)

[@Luis_GonzaIez]

Ive always wondered about the plane collection or if you actually kept all the planes you reviewed. I would have so much fun organizing all of that. I would make it look so bad ass, call it “The Airplane Arsenal”

[@capnhardway]

There you go, people that don't want to do it themselves. I'll let you know when I get a few more lol

[@richhollenbeck5619]

Hey Brian! Thanks for the tips! Looks like all of your success is a blessing but also a curse. :)

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

Totally! I love doing this, but it's lead to some unforeseen consequences, as any other success might also bring along for the ride ;) Flying almost every new RC plane that comes out is an amazing privileged and honor, and I love it, but at the end of the day, they still exist in time and space and must be stored ;) Queue BrianPhillipsHoarder - LOL!
