Thanks Tim!!!

[@Mike-pb5bj]

really like when you take the time to show us and explain to us ! can you imagine how many plane you save us by doing this ! that's why I told you you were the best on youtube ! thanks Brian ! ✈✈✈💙

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

Mike - Thanks for saying this! I try hard to share this stuff, as I'm learning it, or figuring out what worked for us, but I get some push back both ways, so we have to try to walk a fine line of keeping things moving, and leaving people "in the dust"...so thanks!

[@paulballard4243]

Dude, I just watched this video again. When you flew over you shoulder and then banked hard right to avoid the high lines…THAT WAS AWESOME!! And then that butter landing!! Your enthusiasm had me yelling at my tv LOL Anyway, good job man and thanks for the info on the fasteners. I’m buying them cause they look handy to have

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

AWESOME! Thanks Paul ;)

[@burlingtonfilms]

Thank you again for posting these rc jet videos in detail. Would the DSMX controller that came with the Habu STS work with this jet? And would the 4 lights on the controller show the battery life too? Also how many minutes did you get on the 7000mAh in this run? Sorry if I missed it in the video. And have you ever thought about taking this to a large park and getting people's reactions?

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

If you're using this plane, you need to get an NX6 or NX8, or if you're tight on cash, get a used DX8 or something like this. You need the control over the buttons. While you could technically bind a DXS to any plane that is DSMX, I wouldn't recommend it. Too much Expo and Dual Rates needed to make things work right.

[@leoh.9445]

@@BrianPhillipsRC That plane sounds freaking awesome! I totally agree with park fly, that would be a million view count video for sure.

[@greghoff7303]

Put the nose gear steering on the open channel and control it with the knob so you can stop messing with the mechanical adjustment. That way you can fine tune it via the radio quickly without trimming the rudder too. Then mix the nose steering channel with the rudder and activate the mix with the gear down switch and you’re all set.

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

I can't - You'll se on Sunday ;)

[@paulballard4243]

First off big shout out to camera crew! Numero uno in the biz. Brian, I want thank you for your very candid explanations of these planes, I’ve learned how to fly better because of you. Im very lucky like you and am able to use the road out front of my house. Perks of living where cattle out number humans lol Also I’m VERY lucky to have an amazing phone company that has the best internet in the area, 100 up and 100 down consistently. Thank you both for working so hard for us fellow pilots. Happy Mother’s Day camera crew 😊

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

Thanks Paul - 100 up and 100 down is amazing!!!!! Super jealous!!! P.S. We just got almost 300Mbps down the other day, whit 39ms of latency.

[@mrk8212]

Your confidence flying in that tight space is impressive. Always good vids, thank you.

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

Thanks Mr K

[@frank-vq4mx]

I've been at it for 47 years. The best part is. I'm still learning. Especially e.d.f. jets.

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

A good pilot is always learning - that's for sure!

[@stewartcaulfield6969]

Gday Brian how are you mate I just wanted to touch base and share with you. I've been flying every chance I get. I'm still flying my 520 I'm getting out of safe a lot now. As long as it's not windy I'm really happy with my progression... Thanks heaps for your influence. I've been practicing wheels up wheels down although I have a vtol which is handy for me cause of where I live however if I walk Dow to the road then I have my own runway. However again it does have a 20 ish degree slope so it can make landing a bit tricky. But it feels bloody good when you get it right. I was just outside having a wee fly I notice I have many out of control moments when I have the safe turned off.. It's amazing the noises that come out of me at these moments... Hats off to the xk 520. My one has many many flights under its canopy now, it's benn smashed and repaired countless times and it's still proven to be training me. I only hope it's training me in the correct manner.. OK cheers Brian. Gday camera crew

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

If you're flying the same MODE as you intend to fly with your next aircraft, you'll be learning even though a plane will fly a bit different, and easier in many ways. The VTOL capabilities of the 520 will allow you to keep from crashing, when you might otherwise be REPAIRING a true fixed wing craft ;) LOL Keep flying. Takes time to get more comfortable. You probably can't imagine now, but in a few short years, you'll be flying at or better than my skill level.

[@craigschray4486]

Love this plane. I'm not even close to having the skill set to flying such a beast. I'm still on the Carbon and Sport Cubs....lol

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

You can do it! With time, you'll get there!

[@jankinmotoness3884]

This might sound crazy but I started with rc simulators then bought a tiny rc Cessna and flew it like 10-15 times and stopped rc for a few months. Last week I bought a 70mm viper and it's really fun. My landings can be great but I have some bad ones as well. The nose broke off like twice but it's still running strong and love it

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

Good for you, that's a great jump! Glad you got the 70mm first...she's a bit more tame than the 80mm...but if you can fly it, the 80mm is AMAZING!!!

[@Nothinglefttosay]

RC geek is another great pilot...! Can’t wait to maiden mine. Bad weather is probably karma...

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

Chris is an AMAZING pilot (WAY better than me) - he and I talked about this F-16. Even though we're competitors on KZbin, but he's a GREAT guy. Same with and Ryan and The Petrincic Bros too - They're all cool guys, and I love that we're working toward the same big picture goal of growing our wonderful RC lifestyle ;) Of course, we want you to come her first ;) LOL

[@pianoplaying2728]

I remember that on the first f-16 video, you said that you saw vapor on the plane. You should put a small camera on the f-16 and do a flight with lots of high g maneuvers and lots of aerobatics. Then you can make a cool video and see if vapor actually is there during the flights.

Piano - yeah, not sure if I was sing it, but I don't really have a good camera for that type of shot. I SHOULD have one, but I don't.

[@timbacchus]

You need to install a parachute to slow it in landing. Would be cool.

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

no - I just need to be more skilled ;)

[@hornedfrogr.c.161]

Love your channel, you give lots of useful information that saves headaches and time. Found another brand f16 that gives you electromagnetic brakes on the landing gear to stop the fast rolling landings, 12s and sounds bad ass hsdjets.

Looks like this jet needs some reverse thrust! I can see another mod video coming :)

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

It already could support it if you want to do it, BUT with all the cheaters, PD at Horizon Hobby said it just made a lot of noise ;( I HAD thought about making a LOUVER system that would allow it to work, but that's a LOT of effort. I might just come up with a simpler breaking system that everyone can copy, if they wish. I DO LOVE THIS PLANE! It's gotta be one of my favorites, and it's a bit of a LONG TIME COMING. I've been lusting after an F-16 (SUPER Scale looking, not cartoon-looking in any way model...). I want to add some stuff, but I have a significant obligation to review it in it's "stock" configuration, then I can do whatever I want...and I have some ideas ;) When this plane is all done, it will be doing landings EASILY on our primary runway ;)

Don't know where I'm gonna be able to find a runway lol that is an amazing sounding and flying bird. How is the landing gear compared to the thunderbird? The thunderbirds gear was a bit flimsy for me so I'm hoping they buffed up the gear.

Brian that f16 has a smart esc in it could you reverse thrust on landing , Just like Draco , not sure how effective it would be

yes, but the cheater holes make it work badly, PD at HH said so.

[@rcpilot0079]

Hi Brian great flying. I heard at the jet event couple of pilots were using reverse thrust. It seemed better than not having any. Might be worth trying to showcase 😎 I heard this from a Horizon rep btw

[@jons858]

How does this compare to the 70mm thunderbird F-16? Does it have more speed and vertical?

Heavier, WAY more detailed. Better electronics, all around. Looks SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO much better. WAY better landing gear, and did I mention she's prettier ;)

Brian, I use 100c batteries. What am I missing by not using a 50c or 30c?

Nothing. you have a better flight pack with 100C...only thing you might be missing is the extra cash it costs for the lipos...but with edf jets, higher C is definitely a good idea.

[@nolacross704]

could you fly this coming from flying umx a 10 totally out of safe and able to do light aerobatics with it

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

Probably not. The 70mm Viper or 70mm F-16 would give you a lot higher chance of success. This F-16 is amazing, but it's quite challenging to land. It rolls out for-ever...but the landings must be near perfection ;) If you think you got it in you, go for it, but you'll be in for the most intense butt pucker, you'll swear you were at proctologist exam!!! LOL...butt really, please don't get it if you're not ready. I'm not trying to use reverse psychology...it's just pretty hard to land for me. In order of difficulty, from my point of view...

[@NeedSpeedRC]

How does this compare to the F-18 by Horizon?

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

It's great. The F-18 flies "heavier" but also rolls out for a long way. The F-18 gear, while amazing looking, are not as robust and more prone to tipping on yaw corrections on landing. The F-18 slows down a lot better, but it's also a lot heaver.
