E-flite T-28 Trojan 1.1m BNF Basic / PNP Airplane Shakedown

[@papasplanes.956]

Thank you thank you thank you for landing and taking off in grass. I'm shopping for a park/soccer field flyer. Thanks for the shakedown!

[@PilotRyanMedia]

You’re very welcome. Have you seen our Turbo Timber videos. That thing is a blast as well and very similar in skill level requirements. Plus, awesome off grass. If you shop online consider clicking through my links in the description.

[@jordandoell]

Awesome! Really can't beat a T-28, they all fly amazing!

[@rhuffines13]

Parkzone warbirds has a place in my heart , own 3 and started to collect them, this way they live on 1100mm warbirds whooooooo , the fly so great

[@michaelsherman1018]

Had the original, have the 1.2m. Love the yellow...

[@alangentry6295]

Good video that was one of my first foamies Parkzone I got the first one made it had a 72 megahertz radio in it

[@JeffinLowerAlabama]

Great news and video. The 1 1m T-28 is a LA RC Plane Hall of Fame plane, now that's it updated wow fantastic. Everyone should have this T-28, Jeff in LA USA

[@AirVexedRC]

Been waiting an hour for the video! Thanks for posting. Seems to bounce just like the Habu, so I might run this as a belly lander in my local park. With the lighter loading, I'm way more comfortable trying it on this plane.

[@PilotRyanMedia]

It’s good jet practice in a way since it really likes the full bleed. Belly lander deluxe

[@AirVexedRC]

@@PilotRyanMedia Between this one and the 1.4m FMS I just ordered, I'm thinking I'll want to sell my 1.2m EFL. Maybe...

[@USNVA11]

A refresh of the old ParkZone T-28 ... nice ! It’s what I learned to fly RC with over a decade ago.

[@Cadillacstsv06]

Hey Ryan and Bobby! Full on 3S regalia shakedown for sure! Even on 3S looks like a sweet and fun flier for the beginner or nostalgic flier! Great camerawork by Bobby as well! Thumbs up!

[@RCGirl]

Nice flying! I have one of these en route too, so trying to watch all the vids on it 😊

[@PilotRyanMedia]

Very cool! We’ll talk soon, sound good?

[@Bellairvideo]

Just delivered in Australia for our summer season. Mine arrives on Tuesday so cannot wait to take it to our local beach for a flight. Well done boys. Great intro flights.

[@jcb6713]

great plane, glad it's back...

[@talkischeap7418]

Nice , can’t wait to graduate from this Sports Cub and break out the big guns !!!

[@franciscoduran3688]

Thank you for your tips. I´m about to start my used T-28 after just flying my Turbo TImber and UMX and the landings tips were super! New subscriber too :))

[@PilotRyanMedia]

Glad I could help!

[@reckemroysrc3764]

Awesome to see the classics making a come back. Love it 😀

[@georgewatts9361]

An oldie but definitely a Goldie.

[@WarbirdFan66]

i had the parkzone T-28, this thing could do crazy flighttimes if trimmed right, i squeezed 22min out of a 2200mAh 3s, super fun plane...and the new color look even better than the old one imho, nice

[@davidsnyder238]

You can never beat the T-28 regardless of the size. Excellent offering from eflite! Super fun video and review!

[@JohnHill-jm7tm]

Another great video Ryan and Bobby K. This Old Man on a cold afternoon enjoying the videos. ✈️😎💝

[@epoweredrc]

Great video Ryan, great plane I am so so glad they brought it back and put smart inside it.

[@eddieksrc]

So glad they brought this one back! Great for guys that want to cut there teeth because not everyone has been doing this for a minute. Great video as always guys!

[@ACE-hr8he]

I feel like everyone needs a plane like this n the hanger, you know one u can take out n have fun with n if u wreck it no biggy just use a lil glue n it’s all good. Great video

[@mikekennedy9174]

Highly recommended, the older version Is what I learned to fly on.

[@mvg2x34]

Looking forward to this one. A lot of potential to go to the 4s batt. I like that the gear are fixed and you can belly land it (good for snow). Retracts and flaps are interesting but, i’d rather fly than worry about that so this model is right for me.

[@gwrrolan]

I like how you say my name at the start of your videos 😂😂👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@andrewstevenson1109]

I loved this video as I have just bought mine

[@dennisfarley6574]

Still a great plane.

[@roachcoachhelis6387]

Nice flight easy to see in the air looks like it's cold up there Ryan , Butrrrrr🥶

[@dalerbsr.5061]

Glad you pitched the Corsair on yesterdays show to HH

[@PilotRyanMedia]

Thanks, back to basics with new tech seems like a winner.

[@WickedMoto]

love the video as always. what a weet flyer!

[@prycenewberg3976]

Would this be a good option for someone transitioning from RC Helis?

[@PilotRyanMedia]

Yes

[@garyvale8347]

I have just transitioned to this model, as my first low wing airplane....I have flown it on 3S only, and the guys at the field warn me not to fly very slow because it will stall....is stalling this aircraft, when turning at low speed something it does, as I haven't experienced it yet...thanks

[@PilotRyanMedia]

Any plane will stall if it gets slow enough or if the attitude changes too fast

[@YourOutDoor]

Trying to decide between this or P-39 Airacobra 1.2m BNF

[@p3arljam26]

Come on Horizon the Trojan and Cubs have been done to death.

[@PilotRyanMedia]

just wait

I am seriously considering buying this plane, I've been intimidated by actually crashing money into the ground, but with my Flight Simulator experience and this Craft I think I can have a really good time. Thanks for the video.

[@PilotRyanMedia]

Awesome, consider using my link if you don’t go local

@@PilotRyanMedia Subbed, Probably be in the Spring. Building a Capra Crawler now, and it's Fracking Cold here in Nebraska. I build and Fly lots of Planes in Kerbal Space Program, and have been a flight and flight combat simulator fan for over 20 years. It's nice that technology has gotten to a point where I am not afraid of spending the money to just crash it into the ground. Got that itch, just a matter of time now.

[@jasoncurrie475]

I got the one with the safe mode and as 3x and I am a slow scale flyer I don't do no acrobatics none of that not interested in it and I will say it flashes just as good as the arrow scout 1.1 m and that's what I learned to fly on I've never had a problem with it never even come close to crashing it but I like this look of civilian aircraft and that's what drew me to this so it's not intimidating at all if you can fly a basic four channel aircraft I believe you could fly this

[@dieforyou0077]

It can bind with radiomaster .?

[@mikenowland2739]

No flap regalia. 👍

[@Jhoppenstein]

What receiver was used in this plane?

[@PilotRyanMedia]

The tech spec is available through the link for the plane in the description

[@PilotRyanMedia]

AR631

[@Jhoppenstein]

Q

[@Jhoppenstein]

Mistakenly, I purchased the PNP version which, of course, arrived without a receiver. If I I purchase an AR631 receiver from Horizon Hobbies must I ask them to configure it for the E-flite T28 Trojan 1.1M plane or can the receiver, off the shelf, work?

[@jasoncurrie475]

What's the flight time

[@PilotRyanMedia]

5-7 minutes easy depending on throttle management

[@jasoncurrie475]

@@PilotRyanMedia which one flys longer per charge the twin Otter or this one?

[@jasoncurrie475]

@@PilotRyanMedia which one would you recommend

[@PilotRyanMedia]

Depends on your skill level, both are pretty easy going, I’d personally recommend the Trojan though. If you get one online please consider using my links in the description, thanks a lot

[@9418matthew]

Could a beginner start with that plane?

[@PilotRyanMedia]

Yes, I would recommend some stick time on the real flight sim first. It’s an easy flyer and it’s tough

[@9418matthew]

@@PilotRyanMedia where/how can I get a simulator from?

[@airhammer6203]

It's back!! It's yellow!! and it knows 2+2 is 4s!!😄🤣👍 Glad it's here again....and updated. Still has a reasonable price too. AirHammer out!!

[@mickydee6550]

Is this new update made out of the smoother, tougher, stronger foam that Horizon has been using on their more recent releases, or is it made out of the old rubbery stuff?

[@joshuafergusonrc7939]

it a good plane. Very low stall speed, probably the lowest stall speed I ever experience on low wing plane.

[@missiletm]

$200 and no retracts?

[@tughillrc6327]

This brings back memories, G2 tech no balance leads for new batterys, sounds like a win for me. Me and Warren are going to be broke LMAO!!

[@jasonhurdlow6607]

@@PilotRyanMedia Found the right episode and watched it. Very informative. I'm not against innovation, but I am also very in favor of open standards that aren't locked into a sole source provider. In the long run that's nearly always best for the consumer.

[@jasonhurdlow6607]

No balance leads?... forcing you to buy their proprietary battery charger?... mmm... not cool.

[@PilotRyanMedia]

Any battery with an ic3 or ec3 connector will work in this plane, all of my batteries no matter who makes them will charge on their chargers.

[@jasonhurdlow6607]

@@PilotRyanMedia Do you still get battery telemetry if you don't use their G1/G2 batteries with it? Their system and chargers do seem nice, if overpriced. If it was licensed to and supported by other manufacturers I'd be more keen on it. I just have an aversion to vendor lock-in. It's almost always a bad thing in the long-run. Also, already having a good charger system, I'd rather not have to buy another one. I find it 'interesting' that despite having all the balancing circuitry in the battery itself on the G2, they still require you to use their charger. That doesn't seem necessary to me. A regular LiPo charger should be able to charge it, even if it means you lose out on some of the fancier features of their charger. I'd be more likely to start buying G2 batteries, then later down the road buy their charger if that was the case.

[@PilotRyanMedia]

I hear you. It’s not for everybody. We’ve all been getting along pretty good up till now. You’re right to ask about telemetry. You won’t get it unless everything is smart
