DW Eagle II Folding prop

[@Jimgoodwin846]

Andrew, beautiful scenery, beautiful music and awesome photography and video as usual. A job well done. Thanks.

[@MrVasmikey]

Wow Andrew! That thing flew just like a Bird!

[@brianchamberlain9630]

Beautiful! Looks so relaxing...

[@tonys4250]

I just got the DW Eagle II came in yesterday and started building it. I watched your build video and then found this one about the folding prop so I ordered the same folding prop you did. Thanks for all the info. I did subscribed and hit the bell.

[@AndrewNewton]

Ha, thanks heaps Tony. It's a wonderful bird

[@deserthunter8363]

I subscribed a long time ago. I've enjoyed all the changes the channel has gone through. You delivery is smooth and relaxing, it's the kind of content I enjoy. I'm surprised you don't have a million viewers.

[@AndrewNewton]

Thanks Mike. Don't think I could handle that many viewers

[@kartherton]

Well done Andrew. Looks better in the air as well. Keith. 🇬🇧

[@stephencantbewrong8250]

I don't care what anyone says, that was way to cool!!!!

[@richaubele4517]

I've been sitting on the fence about this one. Now have to get it. Simple FPV and a folding prop would be the only addition on mine. I can't wait to get footage of the birds attacking it ! Nice one A.N.

[@AndrewNewton]

It's a plane that makes everyone smile

[@nickmarangelis2251]

Wow, great footage, I always enjoy your videos , thanks.

[@longjammeriii3323]

Lovely looking bird (sic) lol, what a great flight and beautiful scenery, thanks for sharing, all the best, Alan, Uk.

[@toolbaggers]

That's not how you use (sic.)

[@rcflyer3984]

Spectacular mate😃

[@tabdougherty8549]

Really nice!

[@nadeemimran6295]

Eagle' s eye view. Nice one Andrew

[@humbertomontalban3932]

just epic, a real master.

[@paulsharpe5760]

Nice one just seen this video another great flyte

[@MartyLJ57]

Nice adjustment.

[@heady2008]

Looks much better in the glide. Loved the part at 2:00 where the "Eagle" was chasing it's shadow.That'll send all the small rodents scurrying for cover

[@AndrewNewton]

Yes the shadow makes it

[@shermaddictedtorc8540]

gliding has to be the best aspect of RC. especially for this old bloke anyway.

[@AndrewNewton]

This old bloke too

[@antonblebann6823]

Really NICE.

[@The_Pub_]

G'day Andrew Camera position was sweet, have never seen an Eagle with a moustache before!! Guessing Phoenix nose cone??? Floats so well, but the loops are not so symmetrical,, is that due to the light flight weight?? Peaceful video again,,, these ones I miss. Cheers..

[@AndrewNewton]

Yes, light weight and lots of drag make loops difficult

[@btbplanevids]

Nicely done! Light winds that day, I guess? Just wait for reported sightings of the ultra rare red-nosed eagle in your area :-) I just have the centre yoke on mine (no spinner) ... a bit less aerodynamic but you can hardly see the prop when it's spinning.

[@KenKneknaneek]

Ha ha very nice. I got mine in the mail today it is the E15 mini Eagle. I also watched a couple of other movies and saw where the weak points of the aircraft are. Will probably use a light motor and folding prop as everyone seems to be catching the prop on landing and crushing the nose. lol.. anyway, got it half together this evening and will try to put it on my channel when I do the maiden, or maybe the second maiden, or maybe the third or ~~~~~ Happy Flying

[@AndrewNewton]

Please share the video, I'll be watching

[@KenKneknaneek]

@@AndrewNewton Will do .. almost got it done now boy the instructions were full of mistakes. After watching a lot of crash vids i will re-enforce the nose area. It is not a fun model to build, but it sure looks fun to fly as seen by your videos. Now, back to work lol

[@Snarky_Radio]

Wow, the flight video is from that Mobius C2? That is amazing. thank you for the video. looks like a fun plane/bird... bird-plane.

[@AndrewNewton]

Yes, Mobius C2

[@lloydprunier4415]

Majestic!

[@frostbittencanuck5037]

Cheers from Calgary Alberta Canada Andrew what a great looking video video I just got my hands on I want to these eagles from another member of my club and I look forward to it He said he tried a folding brop and it caught on the beak of the bird but I don't think he tried trimming it back as you did and painting it yellow wow what an awesome idea Did you modify your eagle with eagle with ailerons or you just fly it with the eleron?

[@AndrewNewton]

Greetings to Canada. Mine is the big version that comes with ailerons

[@daquino0021]

Hi Andrew! Great flight!! Can you please share the parts you used (prop adapter, folding prop spinner, and 10x6 prop blades) for the folding prop? I have the 1.2m Dancing Wings version and would love to add a folding prop on mine. Apologies if you already posted this somewhere and thanks in advance!

[@AndrewNewton]

Just a Volantex prop hobbyking.com/en_us/volantex-asw-28-v2-v3-phoenix-v2-2400-replacement-folding-propeller-assembly.html?___store=en_us

[@ukulelefatman]

Such a beautiful and graceful plane. Is that one of the uxcell RC Folding Propellers I've seen on amazon? I've been tempted to try one (because of the quick shipping) but the word "toy" in the description kept me away. Good quality? Sorry if I'm mistaken.

[@AndrewNewton]

Volantex Phoenix folding prop 10x6"

[@prestonshute7243]

Looks like the real thing in profile. Surprised you weren’t mobbed by a bunch of birds. Great video 👍 Cheers

[@AndrewNewton]

There will be an angry bird video soon

[@REDROBRCFPV]

When the prop folds it looks like a moustache lol

[@AndrewNewton]

Yes I thought so too.

[@lasersbee]

Nice flight video... What camera were you using for the onboard clips ?

[@AndrewNewton]

Mobius C2

[@sadeghbeygian8252]

Excellent

[@actionman9357]

I envy you, my friend! ;- )

[@cameronwilliams3042]

[@kris4362]

Andrew ......well done........ this will be a challenge for Uncle Bruce to better ...... LOL

[@EnglishTurbines]

Good job Andrew, Im sure I saw another glider on the ground further up to your right...?

[@AndrewNewton]

Dumped Car bonnet!

[@EnglishTurbines]

@@AndrewNewton Oh, you have heathens in Ozz like we do..?

[@Baloghvideo]

Andrew, that looks awesome! Just maidened my Eagle II yesterday with regular prop. Flies great! Ordered the volantex folding prop but was wondering how you got it to align with the sides of the nose? I would think the prop is not wide enough to site nicely in parallel but maybe I am over thinking it?

[@AndrewNewton]

Mine fits fine but I may have cut the foam to narrow the head

[@SteveHoops]

enjoyed that thanks for sharing

[@RobisonRacing68]

My god that was so pretty!!!

[@AndrewNewton]

Yes it just loves to float up there.

[@properlytwisted2172]

LOVE IT!..:)

[@confuseatronica]

since it is a bald eagle, you could paint the prop to look like a FISH! (or a snake even)

[@leemaples1806]

ha, i didnt think of that but was thinking paint the prop yellow like its beak.

[@sportz5740]

Very cool Andrew. No gulls this time?

[@leemaples1806]

saw one but it didnt seem to want to stick around. lol

[@AndrewNewton]

Stay tuned, 30 angry gulls coming soon

[@interman7715]

Hi Andrew what do you think of the gliding performance thanks ?

[@AndrewNewton]

Beautiful, slow and very bird-like on the slope.

[@marto2200]

well done

[@DonDegidio]

Hi Andrew, Still doesn't want to loop. Further up the beach to the left, is that where the gun club once was located?

[@AndrewNewton]

Ex Gun club is straight over the water in Eastern Park. Unless there was another one out here on Pt Henry

[@leemaples1806]

i thought it was illegal for citizens to own guns down-under. hmm

[@AndrewNewton]

@@leemaples1806 Not illegal, just very regulated, as it should be.

[@theoztreecrasher2647]

@@AndrewNewton Yep. Any sensible person with a legitimate reason can still own an appropriate firearm. A bit inconvenient to have to chase up a key when pigs. dogs or rabbits show up, but I'll take that against having every sign, tank, windmill & even stock on the property blasted by the weekend ratbags!

[@helmutw.4882]

A very nice video. I ordered an eagle :). How wide is the eagle's nose? Which folding propeller did you use? Holder size, spinner size ... Delivery is currently taking a little longer, its time for ordering folding propeller

[@AndrewNewton]

Phoenix 2000 10x6" prop and spinner, had to trim the beak back a little

[@trx4play784]

Hi Andrew is that the Phoenix 2000 v2 folding propeller?

[@AndrewNewton]

Yes

[@erniestory7223]

@@AndrewNewton I know it's been a long time since you built it,, but did u change the motor down thrust,, am a big follower love the vids sorry about your fingers stay safe mate

[@AndrewNewton]

@@erniestory7223 Thanks Ernie, yes I did tilt the motor mount down a little using 2 small washers behind the top two mount holes.

[@flyingark173]

Beautiful video, thanks for sharing. I agree with another commenter that you should paint the prop yellow like the beak. (Side note: my C1 Chaser has been shipped, so excited. Bought off your link, hope that helps?)

[@AndrewNewton]

Thanks so much Flying ARK

[@Brolga283]

Love that site...

[@AndrewNewton]

It's good apart from the dumped rubbish. Now there is a car bonnet and a fridge at my usual spot.

[@koalatails6391]

Great scenery, & when gliding, the folding prop looks like a piece of fish-guts hanging out the beak.

[@bleeksbentbits3150]

"Why's that bird got a moostasha???" asks my 6y.o neice..... Wrong channel, & it's a propeller.... "No it's not, burds dont have proper-ella's!" (The look I got woulldve left me feel'n like the stoopidest Uncle there is, if I hadn't been so rudely roariing with laughter.... :v Cheers for that! ;)
