E-flite - Waco - UMX - Unbox, Radio Setup & Maiden Flights + NEW Transmitter?!?

UMX planes are awesome. Thanks for making your property better for flying. You two are heroes of rc.

[@edinelsonramirez5656]

Thanks for flying! I love it, but don't have any kind of large areas available. Watching you do such a great job is very entertaining & I get my flyin' fix! ..... almost!

[@johnnymaynard299]

Love the Bi-planes ! Thanks Brian and now I just got to get this one too ! Love you channel always fun and informative and the best camera crew in the World ! You have a fan for life here .......

[@TerranceNeill]

Nice video guys. Years ago I had the powder blue and white version. What a great flying small biplane. I ordered the yellow/black this morning via your link. I flew the old one in an "Barnstorming" sort of way and this little plane can do it all! The red and white version tempted me but being 65 with my not so eagle eye vision I went with the high vis yellow. Flying on a NX8 w/3s bat. Happy Flying!

[@Corrigan65_]

This model must be popular. Backordered everywhere for a month now. Bought the Realflight simulator dlc. They actually have the color schemes as 2 separate choices, ie like you're flying 2 versions of the UMX Waco. I'm glad I got it because I get the sense that landing it is going to be the hardest thing

[@jjs3287]

Great video as usual. Got a couple of the OG Wacos and will certainly add a yellow one as they are right up there with the best UMX planes. Now, how about a 1.2m Timber Bipe? I think it could work - maybe you could run this past Horizon!

[@richiebricker]

Love that plane. love your place but Im not buying You a pond. Maybe after I buy my own pond. Hey can ya help me buy some shoes? I could use new shoes

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

Go ahead and get a pond. I hope you can broker a better deal than we did, since it's gonna cost a small fortune. Just got just under $15,000 worth of drain pipes delivered yesterday. These were ordered part of our project by the Federal, State, and County Government, as part of the $16,000 engineering on the project (the next to lowest quote...we had quotes over $50,000 for engineering, FYI). We'll have 96" of drainage, to go after the pond fed predominately by the 36" drainage culvert under the road, where the vast majority of water comes. This is just a taste of the real expense of this project, and it doesn't even include the excavation, tree spading, or other expenses...not that it's any of your business, other than that we're sharing it for your consumption, and wanted to satisfy part of your curiosity. My point is that these projects are WAY more expensive than people understand. You have to remember that I've worked, a now 19 year carer making a pretty good living, opposite what we do on KZbin...that and some good investments have given us the financial freedom to do what we're doing on these projects. The KZbin channel only recently helps us to partially offset some of our crazy plans. If you want to poo-poo people for doing cool things - keep acting this way! As for your shoes. What value will you bring me and my family for us to buy shoes? I don't mind buying you shoes, so long as I can get something in exchange. What type of work do you do? What shoes do you want? Can we strike a deal? This is how the world works! With all due respect, you look old enough to understand this. If you bring me value, I will give you something in return, and vice-e-versa. I didn't make the rules, but I do play by them. I've been working with people all my life that are way above and below us on the financial "totem pole" and everyone that works hard, makes something of themselves. If they aren't pussies, they get paid for what they do. If they're WEAK, they'll tolerate working for free. That's not a bash on charity, by the way, there's a time and place for that, but when we go to work, and don't get paid, that's called theft. My family works their ASSES OFF for this channel, and it's insulting that you would insinuate anything less. P.S. I hope you were just joking, but when me and my family are done paying for the millions of dollars we've invested (so far - much more to go, btw) for this property, in like 30+ years, I hope you will have long since moved onto something bigger and better. We will still be here, fighting hard to build what we want in and of our lives. This channel has come at GREAT cost to me and my family...and it's hard to share that in a video that shows RC planes and FUN stuff, but if you have a week or two, I could start to cover some of the REAL cost of what we do. It's not EASY. It's definitely NOT always fun. Remember you see the "fun" part...we LIVE the hard parts. If it were easy, everyone would be doing it...and we've been doing it for almost a decade now. I don't expect you (or anyone else for that matter) to pay for anything in my life if mine DOESN'T bring you value. If we do, and you feel compelled, then by all means, chip in. If not, we'll make it without your help, but there are tens of thousands of people who WANT to help, and they do it. I'm not trying to guilt you, or turn the knife, if you're having a financial struggle, but I want you to think - that dude has worked his ass off, and he's allowing people to help IF THEY WANT TO DO IT. I'm not trying to use a heavy hand, but if roles were reversed, you would be an IDIOT NOT to ask. Hope this helps. Have a nice day!

[@Anomic_Hunter202]

I was glad when you said no flight difference. I love the white one, i thought it'd be lighter and worse in wind.

[@RockbeThyName]

Nevermind I just heard you say in the video your going to do boats!! yeah.. Had to let the video play further...lol

Don't know about Iowa State Brian. But I will go Buckeyes! ;) But I do like the yellow, so that's what I'm going with.

[@Corrigan65_]

Bi-plane. Have the Waco, wanted to watch this again pre-maiden. Have a question about your low speed knife edge and another about ground effect. 1) Did you use cross rudder input to maintain that slow speed knife? 2) Does the lift of the waco's bi-plane design create a stronger air bounce (Ground effect) when landing?

[@Corrigan65_]

If you mentioned UMX Voodoo as in mustang. I have to state that belly battery compartment, the door has problems on new and brand new replacement fuselages. Something that cost me a lot.

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

What a mess! Did you resolve it with some TAPE? A pin to reinforce it? Did you figure out a way? We didn't have an issue, but I guess I could see how it might be for some people...the old design was even worse...just a cavity where you slide the battery up into and depend on velcro to hold it.

[@wacoblaze]

Im a new pilot. I have an aeroscout but would like a smaller plane to fly at different locations. How much more difficult would this be to fly? Great content for sure. Love it

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

Okay, good question! This plane is GREAT flying, and not HARD to fly, but it's made of EPS (vs EPO - more flexible and resilient foam), so it's less forgiving when you do crash, FYI...so you might want to get the 700mm Apprentice STOL if you want another intermediate step. bprc.me/Waco vs bprc.me/Apprentice

[@cmcnamara3]

Props to your wife great camera work 🙌

[@jjs3287]

The great thing about decent micros is that after a while you dont notice that they small. This is because whatever the size of the plane you will always fly it out to an apparent size rather than a perceived distance. The one limiting factor with these small planes though is wind. In still air you can make these little Wacos look real but if its turbulent the magic disappears pretty quickly and they start to look more toy like.

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

Yes, but same is true for all planes...bigger makes for a more and more realistic and AMAZING experience in all the real world elements, but in dead calm...these are AMAZING, as you said!!!

Hey Brian I just got my wife out of the hospital after 2 months she has end stage kidney disease and now she has another disease that is painfully deadly she has 6 months to hear to live the disease called calcifolaxes I cannot afford to do anything about buying an airplane to fly right now something new and unique I'm quiet person I don't ask for much I now have taken over to our entire household everything good and the dishes the laundry the cooking the cleaning paying the bills to go to the store to the shopping done everything just everything and I am in need of a way to get my mind off of my wife that is dying if you could possibly get me one of those yellow birds I would just love it to death it would really change the way I feel right now that I could promise you

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

That's heartbreaking to hear, and I'm so sorry you're having to go through this difficult situation. I lost my mom at 10.5 years old to breast cancer, and have no idea how hard it was on my dad, other than watching him have to take over all the responsibilities one by one, until he was doing everything she was doing. I trust your situation may be somewhat similar. Can I make a very real suggestion here, that may seem a bit callous, so I don't want you to hear it wrong. Please hear it for what I really mean... You need to think about spending THIS time with you wife, and not on RC! Take a break from RC, and live every second with and for her. She isn't going to be around long, and you'll probably regret wasting time later. I don't know how hard it is to be focused on this all the time, and truthfully hope I never do, but my suggestion is to stop wasting time on this stuff right now, and pick it back up when she's gone. There's not always tomorrow for RC, but if you had to choose, I'd say, choose HER...RC will wait. I do get wanting a break from time to time, and seems that there'd be some value in that, no doubt, but you gotta think about life in 3 months, or 6 months, when she may be gone. Do you want to look back and HATE that you wasted time on this RC while she was living? The answer is pretty obvious, and I trust you hear my concern. Unless you want to fly WITH her, you need to be WITH her. I hope this conversation is in vain, when we look back in a few months. I hope for her healing. If that's not what happens, let RC help heal you...but don't waste the little time you have with her now, unless you're both loving it together.
