This is my new favorite plane. I believe it will have it's own category of greatness with me.

[@jasonmbiggs]

If you enjoy the 60E you really need try the big boy. The RV-8 70cc flies just as good if not better. Phenomenal aircraft.

[@jasonmbiggs]

If I may make one suggestion, buy the carbon landing gear. The aluminum gear is the one weak point.

[@AerialRCFun]

I can see why, really like the look and size, it's neat when you find a plane that's just magic to fly. I got a Mamba 10G2, first ever Flex plane and although nothing's perfect, it's my favorite plane so far. Super fun great for a beginner or advanced. Now I'm like imagining what Flex plane to get next.

Greg - I think you need to get Flex Innovations to sponsor your channel. Your selling point is that nobody puts out the number of quality videos you and your wonderful camera lady put out each week!

[@FatGuyFliesRC]

I emailed them and have shared most of my videos with them...no response as far as sponsorship just a big thank you for my purchase and they are glad I am happy. It is ok the would not give Brian Phillips the time of day either.

[@robc5296]

@@FatGuyFliesRC Their loss. Products seen constantly on KZbin are what the average person is buying. Especially those fairly new to the hobby. Keep up the great work!

[@TopG-FPV]

Hey bud. Nice plane! I have the cap and love it. You can turn the lights off by a switch- no need to land

[@FatGuyFliesRC]

Yeah I know but my controller is broken for that and I am running a simple serial rx no where to plug it in any how.

[@Isleofwightr.c-ec2ef]

Great flying, she really is a fantastic aircraft...jeff.

[@FatGuyFliesRC]

That she is. Thanks!!

[@BakedMopar]

Love my flex rv8 as well. Easy to fly with load of performance.

[@FatGuyFliesRC]

I agree it is the the perfect rc plane.

[@mrvoyagerm]

I have one on the way. There must be six or more in our club. Everyone likes them a lot. What is "Cruise Mode"?

[@FatGuyFliesRC]

Well I am obviously very happy with mine. Cruise mode is their starter mode where the throws are a little limited but the gains are the highest in the AURA 8 system. Live wing or full span aileron are not active.

[@mrvoyagerm]

@@FatGuyFliesRC Thanks for that, I will pass this along.

[@D_WallRC]

Absolutely loving my RV8! Do you mind letting me Know what camera you use for your videos? I am currently just using go pros and need some Zoom

[@FatGuyFliesRC]

It is a sony fdrx 53 however it just died and we go a new Panasonic v785 today and will be trying it out Monday.

[@D_WallRC]

@@FatGuyFliesRC Let me know how it does and which video you put up with the new camera. Wanting to get something for my GF to video my flights with.

[@FatGuyFliesRC]

@@D_WallRC Well looks like I will be sticking with my SONY FDRX53 I installed a new chip and factory reset it so hope it works. The new PANASONIC hvc 785 is complete crap will be taking it back to Best Buy tomorrow. Not sure what to do if the SONY completey craps out.

[@D_WallRC]

@@FatGuyFliesRC good to know thanks! If you get a chance check out my onboard flights with the RV8. I built a go pro mount for the cockpit.

[@itzjoeylo4501]

Greg, you should use an open channel for a switch for the lights…

[@FatGuyFliesRC]

The light controller wire to plug into a switch broke. I don't mind landing and manually doing it. I am only using a satellite receiver anyways no where to plug in anything.

[@rafaeltorres2886]

Your intro is awesome 😮

[@FatGuyFliesRC]

I'm glad you like it

[@rafaeltorres2886]

OK it's time to sell everything and only fly this one, it's the perfect plane.

[@FatGuyFliesRC]

Well I told my wife if I was not into the whole youtube thing this would be the only plane I need.

[@itzjoeylo4501]

Greg, did you own a RV-7 from Eflight?

[@FatGuyFliesRC]

Yes nice little plane, but a club member wanted it so i sold it to him.

[@rotormasher]

How does it compare to the carbon Z Trojan?

[@FatGuyFliesRC]

Both fly well but I preferer this one over it now. I have never had a plane that seemed tuned to me like this one is.

[@rotormasher]

@@FatGuyFliesRC fantastic, thank you! Tempting Me now hehehe

[@rotormasher]

I really want one lol

[@FatGuyFliesRC]

I cannot recommend it enough. Greatest plane I have ever flown.

[@simons6208]

Pushing the timing envelope😅

[@FatGuyFliesRC]

Yeah cannot help it! I just love to fly her but love to show her off also!!!
