E-flite UMX P-51D Voodoo Flight Review & Durability "Test"

[@alanshearing7515]

Great video Chris . Thanks for posting. A little pocket rocket! . I was surprised how stable it flys , didn’t look twitchy at all . This looks like a trunk take along model. CU out there 👍

[@jimnardone32]

One of my faves in the group I have. Nice flying bud.

[@jamesbrown7758]

Super cool little bird! Wish I had been there to watch in person. Appears very stable in the wind for a small plane. Fun video!

[@Thercgeek]

Thanks! I was quite impressed with how well it handled the wind.

[@tonyrobinson3744]

Great video Chris! I fly UMX almost always.. A big plus about the P51 frame is that they are almost indestructible. I still have every P51 I've ever bought. I'll be buying this today.

[@Thercgeek]

Awesome! 😊

[@ericsacco7406]

AWSOME CHRIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Need to get one1!!! NICE review!!

[@tennriverluver3534]

Man I'm so happy to see Horizon bring back the P-51. It has to be incredible on 3s.

[@Thercgeek]

It is a little rocket on 3s, haha!

[@Taboloncawonthemasters]

Just a heads up for anyone that buys this!! If you know hold to solder then please solder on a xt30 lead on the plane. You can use multiple rdq lipo batteries that fit. Up to a 4s 380mah but you gotta snap off two of the 4 props. And not to mention there is a much better power exchange through a xt30 vs the jst and less voltage sag.

Outstanding brother, glad to see you out testing some new planes! You'll be able to enjoy the fall leaves there in a few weeks time! I always liked Autumn out in Middle TN...All the best and happy landings!

[@Thercgeek]

Thanks brother! 😊

[@FreeFlightDigest]

That bird! Great video!

[@Thercgeek]

Yeah, he wasn’t having it, haha!

[@eddieksrc]

Nice job Chris! Looks like a nice glossy paint job.

[@Thercgeek]

Finish is really well done

[@melvinriverarcjet6544]

What a beauty, thanks for sharing this video

[@Thercgeek]

Thanks for watching!

[@burlingtonfilms]

Chris thanks for posting this video. When the plane is flying can you turn off the background music so we can hear the plane? I know it's a small thing but it's nice to hear what the plane sounds like. If not it's cool, I know it's your channel.

[@Thercgeek]

I usually do on these reviews but the airplane was so quiet that it literally was just dead air when it was off in the distance. So I kept the music going in this case.

[@burlingtonfilms]

@@Thercgeek Yeah youre right, its not really a big deal.

[@howellanders8717]

Alex, FWIW I just picked one up and flew it yesterday. It really is way too quiet, almost silent. It is quite possibly the best flying UMX plane they have made.

[@lookupitsgreg]

Fan the flames. Go LU!

[@Thercgeek]

Yasss! 😊

[@PilotRyanMedia]

Nice Chris! Hey! You like the battery all the way aft?

[@Thercgeek]

Feels pretty good there to me, but is pretty neutral in the inverted.

[@ghostinng274]

I love my new one. I had one before that I unfortunately nose dived right into the dirt lol but these things are fun

[@Thercgeek]

They really are! I have the new one too, still need to fly it.

[@ghostinng274]

@@Thercgeek I honestly think the new version is more beginner focused but that just makes flying easier and more relaxing like yeah I like a challenge every once in awhile but sometimes it's nice to take a chill easy flight

[@vintageracer3734]

I have been flying the 1100mm version, its so cool! I dig how its NOT a belly lander! I have DAGO RED, and the MISS AMERICA! I just ordered the Galloping Ghost from HK, and I have the HAVOK also. Yes, I do need help!

[@Thercgeek]

Haha, nice! I’ve been on a race plane kick of late. Not sure if you saw the latest post, my latest project is a Reno racer kzbin.info/www/bejne/Zma7qHWQZdt5i7s

[@vintageracer3734]

@@Thercgeek I did, super nice work! Sad about the real airplane. Rumor was he would have had the gold in the bag with that bird...

[@Mikeylikesit1968]

I love mine, I use a RDQ 3s 350mah HV 50c lipo and get easy 5min flights with half power and full power flights.

[@Thercgeek]

Nice!

[@epoweredrc]

They neeed to do the larger P-51 in that voodoo colors would be so awesome. looks fast for a UMX.

[@Thercgeek]

It definitely would! I think fms has a 1.1m voodoo which looks pretty cool

[@vintageracer3734]

@@Thercgeek They have four variants. DAGO RED, VOODOO, MISS AMERICA, and BLUE THUNDER 2. It is a great model, 98.5 mph by SPEKTRUM GPS out of the box. And it has actual landing gear and a scale prop!

[@warbuzzard7167]

Seems like the kind of little bird you should keep close, in spite of the incredible ability of the plane to perform outsize maneuvers.

[@Thercgeek]

Yeah, for sure. It’s small and quick!

[@davidsnyder238]

What a Rocket!

[@Thercgeek]

Yes it is! 😁

[@jcb6713]

let it rip ! 😎👍

[@quoctamnguyen5396]

Wow this is a plane beautifull, i like that

[@Thercgeek]

It’s a cute little model

[@collinmccallum]

awesome!

[@johnw5734]

That's like super sonic scale speed. If the full size one flew that fast...yeah.😀

[@Thercgeek]

Haha, right?! Would be unstoppable on the race circuit! 🤣

[@Djtankcamperlifetamil2009]

Super

[@Djtankcamperlifetamil2009]

Using which battery

[@Djtankcamperlifetamil2009]

Or you from

[@Thercgeek]

Spektrum 3s 300mah pack (link in the description)

[@jonnycatt138]

Why cant the umx timber x be this quiet.....😁

[@Thercgeek]

Haha

[@jordancoleman2402]

It can be with a 3 blade drone prop, iflight F5 Tri-blade 👍

[@Jackson27mc]

Remove the anoing music please

[@Thercgeek]

I normally do, but this airplane was so quiet that most of the audio was legit just dead air.

[@jordancoleman2402]

You can hardly hear it, only thing that's annoying is you bud 👍
