The years of experience you have shows Mr.J. Its amazing how much the Jeti TX does and how you set up everything is mind blowing to me. More success to you and your awesome business in 2024🎉

[@thelightersideofrc]

Thank you very much!

[@rcswissflyer9393]

Jonathan always super cool. The lights are amazing. Compliments for the job and the nice videos.

[@thelightersideofrc]

Thanks! Appreciate it!

[@williamb.9110]

I love your enthusiasm Jonathon. It's very contagious!

[@thelightersideofrc]

Thanks!

[@meticulous_al]

Another great Job! I will be getting one soon. Thank you Jon.

[@thelightersideofrc]

Right on!

[@Sluf7]

Turned out to be a really nice build. The trays up front with all the holes is really only thing that let's it down. Great job young Fulla. 😊😅. Right NEXT ya got a few.😮

[@thelightersideofrc]

Thanks 👍

[@flightsystemsrc]

That Jet looks awesome ! Great work on the light install.

[@thelightersideofrc]

Thanks Sal! You guys put together a great set that's very easy to install! Well Done!

[@chrisduden7382]

If I have a chance in life to build like this - I will take your builds as examples of method

[@thelightersideofrc]

Thank you very much!

[@gogo78879]

nice

[@thelightersideofrc]

Thanks

[@randomnickify]

Ah yes, that thumbnail is exactly how I imagine all Canadians in winter ;D Edit: after watching the test run I think you should build jet powered snowblower, just for fun :D

[@thelightersideofrc]

HAHA. In a T shirt in the SNOW!

[@billrenfro7113]

I have really enjoyed all of your build videos on this airplane, as well as all of your other videos. They are great. I do wonder, why a Vanessa rig is not a cheaper, simpler and possibly more accurate method for measuring CG. No calculations required when using a Vanessa rig.

[@thelightersideofrc]

Thanks very much! Lots of ways to accomplish the same result!

[@vincehutt7616]

Great content as usual just wondering what has happened to the PC21 turbo prop in background missing the engine?

[@thelightersideofrc]

Thanks! Prop touched the ground so sent engine in for a check over as a just in case. Just haven't put it back together yet.

[@sendit_rc]

Instead of glue that could melt the plastic in the tip tank to hold the bec,why not use double sided tape and extra piece of fiber tape over that.

[@thelightersideofrc]

That would work. Access is the biggest problem but the opening is fairly large.

[@jkepps]

UGHHH!!!! I wish I had seen this video before i received my Sky Candy order!

[@thelightersideofrc]

Haha. What would have changed?

[@jkepps]

@@thelightersideofrc I would ordered the nav lights too, instead of just the tip tanks. Completely didn't think about the nav lights. Gotta pay shipping again. Oh well, sucks to suck! LOL!!!

[@thelightersideofrc]

@jkepps ahhh. Yes makes sense.

[@tedh173]

Love your videos and keep up the good work. I'm thinking about getting the plane. Some on forums talk about the weak landing gear and replacing with Electron Gear (which are too expensive!). Can you give a honest thought on the stock gear. Thanks.

[@thelightersideofrc]

Stock gear looks totally fine as long as you build it light! Some guys are using older heavy engines, adding smoke and all that I think pushes the plane over the comfortable range for the landing gear.

[@PiotrGulczi]

Jonathan how do you end fuel tank line for fueling? What type of connector is it?

[@thelightersideofrc]

The one we used in this plane is the Jersey Model Dry Break Fuel port.

[@JasonsLabVideos]

Awesome video ! Can't wait to see first flight !! You rocked this build man !!

[@thelightersideofrc]

Thanks 👍

[@frigateaviation5047]

I look forward to seeing a video with pairing the King Tech with a SPEKTRUM transmitter along with other SPEKTRUM programming features and recommendations that can be used with setting up the MB-339

[@thelightersideofrc]

Could happen if someone sends me a 339 and Kingtech to put together with spektrum.

[@ps4kidgaming56]

Hey! How you adjust acceleration? Couldn’t find it :))

[@thelightersideofrc]

On the Swiwin you can change it while the engine is stopped or while it's running. If you go to my website, under turbines you can find the manual there which is explained very well.

[@nubiandread4u]

Are you 3DGame man? You use to give reviews on computer components, cases, power supply etc? Is that you?!?!

[@thelightersideofrc]

Not a Gamer at all.

[@wargor]

Another great video. I don't know if you covered this in the past, but do you ever use any of the Jeti assist receivers instead of the cortex? I've been using them in all my planes with great results. Just curious. thanks

[@thelightersideofrc]

Thank you. I have not played with or installed a JETI Assist receiver. I have heard they can be a real chore to setup compared to the cortex.

[@wargor]

@@thelightersideofrc I use them in all my planes. To be honest, they aren't that hard to set up. you should try one in a small plane first before the jets. Less equipment is better in my opinion. Keep up the builds.

[@cymaz100]

Futaba 18mz does the same with flight conditions and logic

[@thelightersideofrc]

For sure! Most radios are capable.

[@darrylpenson]

Quick question: You programmed your cortex after you set up dual rates. I just got a cortex for my A.D. Phoenix, and it says to program with 100% throws and no dual rates on

[@darrylpenson]

I meant to ask if you notice any difference is cortex operation doing it that way ?

[@thelightersideofrc]

I don't use high or low rates. So if the aileron is setup with 20mm throw and the DR menu happens to be at 80% Travel, that will be 100% throws for the plane. It will never fly with more. After the maiden with trimming and adjusting travels, you re program the cortex and good to go.

[@lucasalfredorinconmontiel145]

Dear Jonathan, at minute 34:42 you review the CG of this MB339; Can you please explain better what the static CG and the dynamic CG would be with the tool (RCCG- MACHINE) that you use since this topic is very controversial in real life, this hobby and many others. Not all practitioners understand it and that is why they DO NOT APPLY IT having problems taking off, flying, etc. Even on airplanes with a rear wheel. thank you. Lucas.

[@thelightersideofrc]

Hello. I have no clue on the difference between static and dynamic CG. Sorry. Manual states to set it between 5" to 6" back from leading edge. We set to 5.75". Fly it and adjust it as needed.

[@lucasalfredorinconmontiel145]

@@thelightersideofrc okey. Thanks again

[@josephstanley5138]

Does it sit high enough so it can't suck up the grass at the flying field

[@thelightersideofrc]

always possible of course. intakes are quite high. It's likely that you will always get some grass sucked in the nose opening and intakes.

[@steve2972]

How do i get exactly the same kit as you received ?

[@thelightersideofrc]

I just ordered it from the Horizon Hobby Website/Hangar 9 Website assuming your talking about the Plane. If your talking about the lighting kit, Contact SkyCandy Landing Lights directly and ask them for the say layout as The Lighter Side Of RC.

[@steve2972]

@@thelightersideofrc ,its the lights and I`ll contact Skycandy ,cheers

[@PiotrGulczi]

Jonathan did you use secondary receiver I this plane?

[@thelightersideofrc]

No. Not needed but a Clone or 900 could be easily added to the mix.

[@PiotrGulczi]

@@thelightersideofrc as I understood correctly, to power cortex you have used 2 cables from receiver one from sbus output and one from a free channel to spread the amperage?

[@thelightersideofrc]

@PiotrGulczi yes. And the additional power circuit is only positive and negative wire.

[@PiotrGulczi]

@@thelightersideofrc thank you Jonathan! I’m just drawing my layout for 85” Corsair and you are very helpful. Can I ask you one more thing, how do you mount your receivers on this abs plate? Velcro?

[@thelightersideofrc]

@@PiotrGulczi Velcro or a screw down 3 d printed mount.
