Brian, thanks for demonstrating these planes the way you do, the others seem to want to show off their flying skills only, sport flying is annoying when you just want to see the product fly. A little is ok.

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

Thanks for noticing! I love flying, and love flying THIS plane...but at the end of the day, it does everything you want it to do, and it does it well ;) As for inverted low passes...yeah, if YOU can handle it, the plane will do it - LOL ;)

[@tap9083]

Big shout out to your wife (camera crew) she does an awesome job!!! Thank you also for doing these great videos!

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

For sure! She is great!!!

[@randallandrews120]

Are you kidding me? Beautiful! The plane looks and flies awesome under your control. The snow and blue sky makes her pop! Camera Crew, thank you for your skills. A friend tried to film one of my flights...it's tougher than we thought.

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

Thanks Randall! We were worried the white would blend with all the snow, but it was beautiful. Megan's the best! Hope you're doing well too!

[@randallandrews120]

@@BrianPhillipsRC doing really well. Hard to believe this past Jan. 4th it has been a year since my life event. The FW-190 has seen a tremendous amount of air time. She has been a wonderful platform for learning FPV. So predictable and smooth. We got some that snow and cold that I saw in this vid. 14 outside, snowing and blowing like crazy in the marina....BURR! 73 below deck. I use a diesel heater, Chinese. Crazy inexpensive to purchase and use. It kicks some serious butt. Looking forward to your next vid. Thanks guys for everything you do for us. God bless!

[@looneytunes47]

IMO one of the best eflite planes ever made. Flys amazingly good

[@chrisB_OG]

I appreciate the proper pronunciation of livery. Peace and love to you and the fam from RI. Keep being your awesome self! We are very fortunate to have you

My goodness. That looked like a text book carrier full.thrust land, without even having the meatball. Congrats Mav. Very cool 😎

[@mattcook5302]

You're first! I love the slow flying scale flyers. Great video Brian and Meagan.

[@dwightgoodman2116]

Thanks again for the reply! 😀

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

You bet!

[@truenaturestormers2525]

Nice landings, I love the reverse thrust, super sweet.

[@brookekathryn1980]

Identical paint scheme to my actual Cherokee 6! I guess I'm buying one now!

[@Rick_Retired]

That is a beautiful scale model AND with the ability to fully entertain an aerobatic R/C pilot! You have been having a blast with thrust reverse lately! I am gonna set it up on my RF simulator lol. Stay warm if you can, it is 65 here in St. Augustine, right now, and that was a retirement lifestyle preference I've never regretted despite it being so predictable. Keep ya cats off that beauty. I am only where you broke off with a cold, low battery, so now I will watch the rest as you brave more of that finger numbing temperature. Had to Edit: P(ee) Factor at 15:10 and 21:33 on hard stock, cold, skiddy tires?? One more time: Cockpit definitely needs a camera crew passenger!

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

Reverse thrust is rarely a necessity, but when you land on a postage stamp on the regular, it's sure NICE to have! We know everyone won't want it, but always want to show how to do it. 65 degrees sounds amazing... we broke above freezing yesterday and today, but now the fog is so thick there's moments we can't even see beyond our property.

[@aragorn318]

Very interesting. I too had to put +70 aileron trim to get my OG Cherokee to fly level. I never had this problem with my other HH planes.

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

Yikes! That's a lot on ailerons! I had a pretty good amount on the elevator, but it was locked in after that. The Ailerons had a few clicks, maybe 5-10ish clicks?

[@craigrbridges9911]

I think that is one of my favorites so far!! Love how it looks! And I already have a bunch of 3s, so good to know!!

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

Sound perfect then! :)

[@kenflyergc]

....love the flaps and lights ...maybe Hobby Horizon has been listening to your requests for flaps and lights......just checked their website and the blue version is"pre-order" and the red version is "backordered"...

[@dronepilot260rc]

Absolutely amazing plane. Gonna have to pull my old Cherokee out and get some flights in 😂

[@JessieGresham-rr3nb]

Brian I sure do enjoy watching you and your wife does such a good I have bought me two RC airplanes A 380 and a cub I haven't flown either one we've had so much rain and ice

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

You are welcome!

[@AL-RCjunkie]

I was so disappointed, yesterday when I saw this was discontinued. I thought it would take months to get it upgraded. And it's about dang time. I was ready to just oder the old one and add an Avian 60 Amp myself! Thanks for fogging yours up for us! 👍

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

Now you don't have to wait OR do the upgrade yourself! :)

[@joshuajuarez3471]

B Beautiful plane and skills

[@grumpyjohntxredneckrc6346]

#1 Ohhh Yeah! 😜🤣😁😎 I LUV My Old Cherokee That Came w/Water Floats + Snow Skis + Options For Tricycle or Tail Dragger Flights... 👍👍

[@looneytunes47]

The Smaller 10x7 new propeller doesnt have near the pull to do prop hangs like the older version did with the 12x9 propeller but i decided to try a 11x8 master airscrew prop and that was a perfect comprimise on my new eflite Cherokee 160

[@bongo5234]

Brain - The last takeoff was a little aerodynamic imbalance with snow on the starboard wing tip. It was not weight but airflow.

[@Letsroll000]

Had to rewind and watch that initial takeoff a 2nd time. That was close! Lol Nice flight though.

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

yes, it was a tiny bit close for comfort ;) BUT she lives to see more flying ;)

[@Sircrashalot1993]

It’s my trainer plane! Yay. I am getting one!

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

We hope you love it!

[@Mega_Trond]

Love the snow. We have lots of snow here in norway. Hope you not freeze to death. 😊

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

We finally broke above freezing yesterday so we might survive after all!

[@okiedoak201]

Wow...pretty plane...did your white light on the tail work... Very nice plane

[@3ifmCinematography]

I absolutely love your videos. Thanks!

[@joebo9378]

How does it compare to the Cirrus? Would you say this one is more floaty? Also, will the Piper fit a 4,000mah 4s Smart battery?

[@tonyvitiello9897]

Remember, right rudder when jamming the throttle keeps you away from the snow pile.

[@roberthancko1607]

Hi Brian: Is there any difference between the Red vs. Blue Model?

[@RickyD1968]

Very cool Airplane !!!

[@MWall711]

Always loved the Cherokee. This would be a nice choice for a 2 meter balsa sport option. 🤔

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

Sure would!

[@claus4133]

Thank you so much Brian and trusty Camera Crew! I bought the red one but unfortunately it yawed off into a ditch on takeoff, so got to buy new landing gear etc... By the way, I can't get the screws out of the wings.. I loosen them but they won't pop out even with a magnetic screwdriver. Any tips? You guys are awesome!

[@aragorn318]

Lol, at first I thought your hat said RealFlight!

[@darkdaze3860]

Dang Camera Crew, not so much as a flinch!! You could have reached out and touched her! You guys do amazing work together!

[@RCPlanePilotChannel]

The old model had a problem with the motor shaft that would bend very easily from the slightest blow to the propeller. Did they fix the problem??

[@SteveKeeler]

can you tell us what are your rates and expo are. I have the red one and love it.

[@myksanchez1222]

Brian, do you think this is a substantial update on the previous Cherokee 1.3m? I like the red trim scheme on the older version...

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

Yes - 3S&4S support and SMART tech adds thrust reverse and telemetry...other than that...basically a livery update, but I LOVED the original just fine ;) If you have a love for GA, and love slow, lazy flying, OR crazy RV7 type shenanigans, you'll LOVE this plane...I love the former, myself. 3S all afternoon long, and you'll just shoot landings for hours...if that's your thing (which I do)

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

P.S. I do also love the older trim livery myself.

[@Ahkeys82]

Hey Brian, which is your favorite between the Cirrus and the Cherokee? I’d like to get either one of them. Thanks

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

I prefer the Cherokee, but both are very good! bprc.me/Cherokee VS bprc.me/CirrusSR22T

[@AlexMadej-zg6xh]

very nice plane

[@lennyz853]

The Cirrus SR22T is the same price. Which one would you pick if you could only have one?

[@Steve-s3j4p]

Just bought this model a few weeks ago, haven't flown an RC aircraft since the 1980's which were mostly 2ch gliders, i do have very little experience with motorized, (nitro) it was a SIG J3 Cub first day, ok, windy and stressful, second day, smoldering hole in the ground, so i stuck to flying real aircraft, they're actually easier to fly, hehe! anyway, i bought the battery Horizon suggested and have a DX8e. Obviously you are an accomplished RC pilot, and make this aircraft look super easy to fly, will this PA28 be reasonable for a novice? & do they all have the TR feature?

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

Yeah, it will be reasonably easy to fly. Keep in mind with the dihedral of the wing, the rudder does make the plane roll some, but beyond that, it's a fun, scale looking beauty!!! Love the Cherokee! bprc.me/Cherokee

[@Steve-s3j4p]

@@BrianPhillipsRC Thank you for the reply, you made it look very nimble and light when flying. Funny, the real PA-28 has a small rudder, and is one of the reasons it's placarded everywhere that intentionally spinning the aircraft if forbidden. This RC Cherokee caught my eye because the PA-28 140 was my training aircraft, and my first solo aircraft, this model has most of the detail of the real aircraft. So this thrust reverse feature, is that something you came up with?

[@dwightgoodman2116]

Hey Brian. Hope you are doing well. Which did you prefer the most...or not, and why? E-Flite's Piper Cherokee 1.3m, or the Cirrus SR22T V2 1.5m?

Oh,oh Crash…due to icing….lol. Brian love your content what best is your like me “sh t happens”

[@Backupaccidk]

Hello Mr Philips, I’m Ryan and I need your help. My dream when I was younger was to fly Rc airliners but I could never afford it. Now I’m 15 and I’m saving up for the al37 from motion Rc. I asked another KZbinr jays Rc garage if I should get it and he said I should get one more plane that had retracts and flaps before I dive into airliners. I previously flew the apprentice s which I mastered on experience mode, the umx timber original, the twin otter umx, the champ, and I flew the umx citation a little bit. Do you think I should get the al37? I already bought a livery for it but I don’t know if I should commit to purchasing the airliner along with an nx6, a 6s lipo and a receiver. I have the dx63 but Nx6 is way better from what I’ve heard you say and I like how it talks to you. I really want your opinion. If you don’t think I should get the al37 what’s another plane I should get before I move up to the airliner? I was thinking maybe the viper v2 from fms but I trust your judgement way more than mine.

[@flymachine]

Cherokee with beta? I wish they would do more GA working types like PC12 and King Air even a Grand Van would be amazing

[@truenaturestormers2525]

Hey can you tell me what the prop size is.

[@jeromes5141]

I hope they do a Mooney next.

How do you do it? A blue and white plane on a blue and white background. And, you get to fly in the freezing cold 12 steps away from the fireplace. You lucky devils!

[@hotshotrooster415]

See I would love that plane because its the first real aircraft I actually took the sticks in it was my grandfather's Piper Cherokee model C the only difference is his did not have wheel pants I wish they made a Piper Cherokee in a sub 250 size because I would love to have one I just don't have any room to store it

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

That would be nice. A UMX Cherokee would be a good fit, and would fit the UMX lineup nicely!

[@Captndarty]

Idk disappointing it wasn’t a 180. The cowl is more attractive than the lesser variants.

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

Cherokee. It flies better, but the Cirrus SR22t flies very good too. Both are good, but the Cherokee just had the look, and easier to fly low and slow...which is admittedly a preference issue...so please take it as such. Get both! They are both great! bprc.me/Cherokee bprc.me/CirrusSR22T
