[@Rebelscum985]

Your property is gorgeous as always. Nice flying too! SUS is awesome!

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

Thank you kindly! We love it here, and have BIG plans for making it even better with a pond, and a road for omnidirectional landings, so wind is less of an issue, and also to traverse the acreage. As well, as full scale strip in the back - yep, it's gonna be awesome, if we can keep getting the traction we've been getting, this will all happen in about the next 3-4 years. THANK YOU for helping us make this our reality!!!!!

[@BriNaCa]

With two servos and dual aileron setup Spektrum wisely chose to allow you to mix to either right aileron or left aileron. Either mix will control both ailerons. The difference is in the direction of mix. If you use the left aileron the ailerons will move in the same direction. If you use the right aileron the ailerons will move in opposite directions.

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

I've never figured this out! thanks!!!

Thanks for the idea of installing Turbo Timber tires on this plane. I will do that for mine.

Flaperons. Not flapperons. Just busting chops. Very grateful to the Phillips for bringing me back to the hobby. Thanks BP & CC!

[@chasinelwood1977]

Much love for this video. Very well shot and very informative. I like the Bob Ross commentating. Very relaxing. You got to keep up the good work, and send us some of that rain down here to Texas my 700 acres doesn't look anything like y'all's

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

Thanks!!! We're just getting into the dry season here, but it's already been another drought year too around here. Spring was nice, but then it only rained about maybe 6-7 times since. We could use some more too, but I gotta admit, I don't like all the skeeters that come with rain!!!

[@joshuakalina3580]

Love watching your vids! Learning so much

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

Glad to hear it! Thank you, and I always fear we'll try to give too much information and scare off newer pilots, and bore older pilots alike ;) But very glad you're hearing what you need to hear.

[@juniorwest5706]

The stick is awesome with your mods 👍 , but that sun set is beyond awesome ❤

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

It really is amazing! I love flying is SLOW!!! In my humble opinion, this SHOULD have been the stock configuration - I.E. SUS - SLOW Ultra Stick ;) But, even still, at least it can be done without too much effort.

[@Killerplanes]

It’s kind of like a sketch of a plane flying in a real sky! And you could definitely spray the peaceful field with it-

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

LOL - I could ;) that would be so much fun. My PPG trainer has a Spraying Drone...you know, the kind that are as big as a trailer ;) That would be AWESOME!

[@thetruth9747]

Thank you Brian and Megan!!! I've been waiting for this video!!!! -- Bob

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

Very sorry for the delay. We have been desperately wanting to release this for MONTHS!!!! But don't want to torture our viewers wanting to buy one, if we KNOW they're still out of stock. We never know if they're coming back, and this one was...but no ETA until it was HERE bprc.me/UltraStick

[@greencastlefarms6595]

The updated version of the landing gear is part # EFL0373. $7.99 from HH. Glad you put a buying link in the description. If anyone is looking for the gear, make sure it is the correct part number, like what is in the link in video description. I ordered 3 sets of the updated version a few weeks ago, when they first came out. I haven’t broken any so far, which is almost a miracle considering I have a clay runway with alfalfa stubble around it and even greasy landings were breaking the old stiff gear if I wandered too far off the edge. I’m trucking in sand and planting golf course putting green grass(pennco creeping bentgrass) on it this fall in hopes of being able to fly umx and jets without asphalt or concrete. Annoyingly enough, the SUS landing gear has been more troublesome than any other aircraft I have been flying, and lead to my decision to plant the golf course grass. The updated gear is a must have for everyone. Brian, Big Big Thank You from 34 year AMA member for the videos of these new electric planes. Steep learning curve without your help.

[@EricHarris-cd4fp]

Thank u guys been waiting on this video already have the party i need to do this was just needing how to do reset and radio set up. Keep up the great work Eric

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

AWESOME!!! Sorry we had this "in the can" for a long time, but the SUS was out of stock, and we don't like to torture out audience with "mods" to a plane that can't be bought. We may have done that back in the day, but we got so much hate for it, so we repented - LOL ;)

[@EricHarris-cd4fp]

@BrianPhillipsRC no worries I still have parts on back order with horizon lol

[@EJ-74]

This is a must do mod on this plane imo, flys beautiful 👌🏻 That servo arm looks like something I would do lol It actually looks professional compared to some of the parts on my homemade builds 😁

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

Totally agree - Flapperons MAKE this a SLOW Ultra Stick. I liked it before, but LOVE it now! Should have been factory installed, in my opinion, but since we CAN do it, I'm very happy that we did!!! She is a whole new plane. I can't remember if I talked about the C switch FLIPPING the flapperons into spoilerons, so you can fly UPSIDE DOWN super slow ;) I did that into the ground, RIGHT after my brain injury (well, like 3 days after...I wasn't ready to be flying yet - LOL) She's fixed again ;)

[@JessieGresham-rr3nb]

That look like fun I I was surprised how you flew that airplane for the first time that thing look like it would have been hard to fly. Camera crew done a good job

[@cloudsplitter24]

I’d love to see this puppy on floats! Would be fun for small lakes.

[@COW879]

Def gonna do this with my SUS. Was honestly disappointed it wasn’t as slow as the GWS Slow Stick but it looks like you figured it out 👍. What kind of camera is the camera crew using? Super good video quality

[@emersonb5764]

A 2100 mah pack will give 18+ mins of flight, and still flies good, though you might want to swap the battery and ESC locations to help the CG. But if you do, the 1350 packs will still balance. You’d basically have the pack at the CG so nearly any pack size would balance.

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

I don't think I have any 2100mAh packs. Thing I love about this plane, it just flies awesome with all sorts of CG locations. If you want to make her fly in High Alpha well, just push the CG back a bit...it reminds me of the NIGHT VAPOR in that regard.

[@gisall8205]

Hey Brian. Don't know if you mentioned it or not, but what are your flight times with that 1300 battery.

[@toddsanford7757]

Hey bro, If you could only have one plane,,, which one would you keep? I'm thinking gas powered clipped wing cub,,, maybe 50cc or bigger for me.

[@Navigator777777]

Hour 2:16:00...I was finding out what I didn't know about flaps and mixing while out standing in my field. I was spinning the dial as Brian is doing 2:16:00 and was attacked by a flock of birds. I'd stop, they'd leave, then I'd go back to it and they'd attack again. Pretty cool. The noise definitely affected them. It's amazing when you get the flaps and elevator working together. Absolute panic when you don't.

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

100% - Gotta play with them to see the best way to enjoy them ;) Flaps are awesome!!!

[@Killerplanes]

When they come back a second time they want to mix it up! Was it crows? You get really great control practice dogfighting with birds, and it really seems like crows do it for fun. Just stay above and behind them for bird safety-

[@Navigator777777]

@@Killerplanes I didn't pay attention to the species. The first time it happened I just thought the birds were having a squabble among friends but when I ran the scroll wheel again they came right out and started buzzing me. When I first started flying in my area, the sky would be clear of everything. But if I looked real close I could see vultures, eagles, hawks, falcons and ravens waaaaaay up high pulling their wings coming down to see the new guy. I leave all the birds alone and they've left me alone...except for the Radian that crashed into an Eagles nest. ;-(

[@Killerplanes]

@@Navigator777777 its a LOT of fun, and good practice- as long as you dont hit them! The babies in the nest probably thought your Radian was Mama- til the last second!

[@Navigator777777]

@@Killerplanes We have apex predators here. My dawg and I were attacked by a wolf not long ago. Something you don't forget. We were standing out in a huge field flying with my dawg next to me when he let out a blood curdling howl. I was almost a zero time pilot then. I know now I was gliding too low over some huge cotton woods next to the river. The dawg howl scared the crap outta me and then I heard the sickening crunch. We left it in the nest, lights a blazing, (Night Radion) rather than disturb the birds. They rid themselves of it on a windy day. I cobbled the parts making flaps on my third Radian. ;-)

[@emersonb5764]

On this plane, I highly recommend you max out the rudder throw mechanically by moving as far in on the rudder horn as possible and all the way out on the servo horn. And when you need a tight turn, use lots of rudder while you’re banking with aileron, and it’ll crank itself right around really well even when in safe mode.

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

I've always been a big proponent of utilizing MAX throws on planes, but there are times when it can cause some oscillation...but on a slower flying plane, not usually an issue.

[@timbacchus]

Good at learning to fly a tail wheel plane. That is more like my speed.

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

AWESOME! She is VERY GOOD!

[@billd7266]

When can we expect the Blade 550 fusion review? Thanks for your reviews.

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

We're in negotiations with Horizon Hobby. Since I'm not a Hard Core 3D Heli Pilot, I'm not 100% sure they're going to work with me on this item, but I want it SOOO BAD!!! Hope this ends up being a heli we can share...but might not know for a bit. Thank you for the question!

[@markhuston9250]

My gawd………….that programming is brain numbing for my old head. That said - I have a plane and components coming to try it……………what a great idea it would be for you to sell the files. Finished and ready to go. I will be your first customer. Thanks - Mark

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

Don't worry Mark - you can and will get it figured out. Mind numbing is a common unfortunate FIRST time symptom of doing some of these RC tasks, but you will LOVE it if you can work through it. Just do a step, pause the video, OR run it at a SLOWER PACE (click the gear, and select 0.5X or 0.25X speed). Once you've done it once or twice, you'll start to get the hang of it, but if you don't, we're here to help not only hook you on the "next" plane, but also show you HOW we did that one too. This has been a hallmark of our channel for thousands of videos. Good luck! You can do it!!!!!

Will this mod work with only 6 channels? Will it work with a transmitter without foreword programming (DX6e)?

[@abghere]

I was going to add a servo for the flapperon, but receiver reset, forward programming are way over my head!

If it's over your head, just follow our process and you can do it!

[@ryanpiotrowski2353]

How do you fly it if your using flaps when it doesn't come with flaps

[@user-pl7cr1ox9s]

Brian, I find your videos very informative but I have two comments. For safety purposes, I feel that the airplane's prop should be never installed until after all of the construction processes and radio setup is tested. I just saves having a throttle reversed and spinning out of control. Just thinking safety here. The other item I notice, at least in the Extra 300 video, never mention balancing your props. Out of balanced props really cause issues with your motors/engines and gyro functions. Thanks for your insights but this might help others starting into the hobby.

[@eddiecollins6258]

Advice request from a newbie: 2S vs 3S battery with this model? G2 or not on this battery? And I guess I'll also need a charger! It would be nice to have a recommended battery/charger for this plane for the benefit of newbies... there are SO MANY OPTIONS that I find myself paralyzed! Thanks in advance!

Q: will a 6 channel radio suffice to setup up like yours ?

Well, should be able to use the NX6, but you'll lose ONE thing...see below - bprc.me/Tx Channels in no particular order... 1) Throttle 2) Rudder 3) Aileron Right 4) Aileron Left 5) Elevator 6) Thrust Reverse 7) Flight Mode - AS3X/SAFE 8) Master Gain

[@PatrickVannie]

Hey Brian, nice informative video on the SUS :-) Regarding a prop change, what would happen if you would use the 11x7.5 three blade prop from the Turbo Timber Evolution on this plane. I still have two of those lying around because i went with a 2 blade prop for 4S on the Timber Evo so would be nice to be able to re use these.

Can the eratix do everything this plane can do? Looking for a slow flyer that looks nicer than this thing 😅

The Eratix is more capable, but the Slow Ultra Stick will fly more like a "normal" plane, rather than 3D profile plane. There's a different feel and look, and strength to the Slow Ultra Stick.
