I have this same jet and it is so forgiving when it comes to batteries. I’ve flown everything from 4000 to 6200 in it and I put all my batteries against the foam in the front right at the end of the battery trey. Plane flies so nice.

[@briankidwell3804]

Brian, I'm sure you figured out the yaw issue by now. One of the shots installing the battery clearly shows the receiver and it appears to not be mounted straight with the centerline. It looks to be pointing to the left which would cause a yaw to the right with AS3X on (my hypothesis for what it's worth). You made me love the plane anyway and I have one waiting for me to get home and put it together.

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

I've seen this before, and have since learned there is a small correction factor in the AS3X programming, but I don't know for certain it wasn't wind??? It's been a while since I took her out...this is one heck of a plane!!!

[@esteban33ification]

One of the best planes in your fleet:)

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

ESTEBAN the worlds one and only CAMEO on BrianPhillipsRC?!?!?!?! You grace us with your presence!!! It *is* AMAZING!

[@TwoBrosRC]

Go into Telemetry > Volts. Tap it twice. Set it to 6s and set the low level warning to 21.6 volts (3.6 x 6c) with a verbal warning. That'll give you roughly one minute of flight time after you hear the warning from voltage sag, and you won't need to land to know what your battery level is. Super easy setup. It'll also warn you if you happen to load a dead battery. The 637T is the best receiver!

[@TwoBrosRC]

Also glad to see you're using that technique I mentioned with the volt cable install!

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

It's been working well!

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

I get nervous with EDF's getting to 3.6 per cell, but you're right, I could just back off for a second if I hear the warning, then land. I've learned to save power when I get a warning, but many times I get too excited, and don't want to stop flying!!!

[@TwoBrosRC]

@@BrianPhillipsRC Keep it up buddy! Loving your content. I'd love to see you do a high torque servo replacement on your Turbo Timber to match my setup with the 637T. Pulling 10g maneuvers is incredible to watch. Lomcevaks into a rolling turn using the new servos and a 12x6 2 blade prop.

[@teal94z28]

Nice jet! I went and looked for it and seems they are on back order! You're like a kid in a candy store with these videos! Love it!!! Great job to you and the "camera woman" Those jets aren't easy to keep up with sometimes.!!!!

[@whoareyou310]

I forgot to ask do you recommend using blenderm or hinge tape for any foam hinges on this plane? thanks

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

ONLY if they're weak, and I have done a few planes recently. I don't like the way Blenderm looks, and it's EXPENSIVE, but it does work really nice. I only do it if I have to. I'd prefer a simple packing tape, but you're right that Blenderm is way stronger.

Nice Flyin' Brian. Way to wring Her out with reckless abandon, love that stuff. Got one myself & She screams like no other EDF. KE is almost as good as my 70mm Avanti. Rock solid airframe. Gotta be the best 80mm Sport Jet out on the market today.

[@RCAV8T0R]

@@BrianPhillipsRC Would be interesting if you could do an inflight video comparing both 80mm's flyin' together with two pilots at the controls in a Real Time Shootout. Might be a way to tell if there are any significant differences between the two airframes in case anyone is wondering or maybe it doesn't even matter...LOL...

[@aaronstrom16]

Im glad you talked about the flap issue on the NX6..I have a model with flaps on both channels 5 and 6 and the only way I was able to assign flaps to both channels 5 and 6 was to copy the model from my DX6E onto an SD card and import it to my NX6 and it worked. I emailed HH just to find out if my TX was screwing with me because every time I scrolled thru the channel assignments to channel 6 the flaps would disappear and you have change the model type back and forth to have it back. I had a terrible time trying to get some flaps setup on my bighorn because the servos are not the same direction so a Y cord wont work. If I hadnt of figured out you could cheat and use the model setup from an older tx Id have to use a servo reverser. So you can do flaps on both channels 5 and 6 it is possible and now aux 2 (channel 7) is my flight modes..win win yay

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

Aaron - have you ever used a SERVO Signal Reverser? Not saying you can't do it as described, but might save you some grief for less than $5 each??? 4 Pack - amzn.to/3497AA9 2 Pack - amzn.to/3qWlK1l

[@aaronstrom16]

@@BrianPhillipsRC yes I ended up getting a servo reverse cable before I was able to achieve the flaps on both channels..I might go back and do separate ailerons and set up spoilerons and crow.. Ive seen you do some pretty cool stuff with spoilers and whatnot maybe ill have to try those configurations sometime.

Been waiting for this one, thanks

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

[@M4rkmcc21]

Hi Brian I'm starting to purchase Spektrum lipos now instead of other brands. Would you say the difference between the 50c and 100c 5000 was very little in the performance area? 4 mins for each one but it's about £20 difference. Which lipo would you buy? Thanks.

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

Difference is minimal at best. I don't know if I would make any bets between the 50C and 100C. The 100C being especially egregious in price. The ONLY reason I would buy a 100C pack is if they were out of 50C packs and I NEEDED them within a day or two. ...BUT they are good too...just don't think they're worth the premium.

[@airtylerb]

Have you tried the smart esc swap on this jet? I ordered the jet with a 120 amp smart esc so I can get reverse thrust and all the telemetry goodies, but I have yet to actually do the swap because it looks like a royal pain to do.

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

I haven't, but why would it be a Royal Pain? Seems like it would be almost a drop in, if you used an AR631 or AR637T... I think it's pretty straight forward, but now you have me thinking. Pull the belly cover for the EDF, then you can see the back half of the ESC, and open the canopy to see the other half (Right???)...then it should be pretty straight forward.

[@airtylerb]

@@BrianPhillipsRC It mostly has to do with where the esc is placed, there’s a cavity where the esc sits that’s made for the esc it comes with and that cavity runs from the motor to where you plug in the battery. It’s a tight space and requires more foam carving to get it to fit. It is straight forward, but the tight space also makes the wire routing a little more challenging on top of getting the esc to fit, especially if you want to keep things nice and clean.

[@CaptainPhoton64]

Hey Brian awesome video as always!!! love this girl and have been close a couple times to getting it but you might have pushed me there. Question- I fly in Montana and my DX6e screen is very slow and barely shows up when its really cold.... So, does the NX display screen stay crisp and visable in below freezing temps??? Thanks!!

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

Great question. I think the older LCD screen, like my DX18 will slow down due to the nature of the liquid in the display, but I think this new style will work fast. I'll report back with a cold video soon, and I'll point it out. This plane is sweeeet!

The PNP doesn't come with Rx or anything Radio Related. I installed the AR637T, which has AS3X and SAFE (if you want to use them), and I used AS3X only.

Thanks Steven!!! This plane is really cool - but you'll need Rx too, don't forget ;)

[@johnlocklear]

I'm gonna start calling my wife "Camera Crew" for now on. :-)

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

LOL!

[@dronecatalyst]

Brian, what skill level should you have for this jet? Meaning can someone make it their first jet? Or should I just stick with the A-10 as the first one?

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

I wouldn't recommend it as a first jet, but it's GREAT flying, albeit VERY FAST. I want you to have success, so can I talk you into one of the following instead??? Habu 70mm bit.ly/3fRaLj7 F15 64mm bit.ly/3c8WXCb

[@dronecatalyst]

@@BrianPhillipsRC 😞 Okay Sir, I value your opinion & it will not be my first Jet. But those other two you mentioned aren’t my cup of tea. I put a lot of time in on RF 9.5 & I don’t like the way those two fly. So it have to be the Eflight A-10 then. FYI, the only reason I liked the above Jet was because you made it look so EASY! 😂 Also I’ll be clicking the link for the A-10 on that video. My way of supporting a really good teacher. Keep it up & don’t work the camera crew too hard!

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

Cool, and the A-10 is AMAZING too!!! You'll love it! A10 UMX & 64mm bit.ly/2P1i286

[@kelvinbloomfield1375]

great looking jet brian.id like to know what you think of it compared to the habu ?

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

Compared to the Habu... one's a Lamborghini, and one's an Escort GT...I'll let you decide which one is which ;) LOL!!! Here's the deal, when you're learning to fly, the Futura would be a lawn dart, but when you KNOW how to fly, the Futura will be a favorite plane!!!

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

You'll love it. Don't forget to play with the Pallets. It's cool to make the colors the way you like them, and what works best for where you stand to fly. Very nice, and little talked about feature.

[@john-kneebee2143]

Okay Brian !!! Do you own all of the planes you have shown ?!?! Batteries.....OMG can you give us a tour of the Man-cave of your collection........??? Please ??? You must have 50G's invested PLUS PLUS !!! WoW !!! I love it...

Hello Brian, New to your channel, flew r/c 10 years back. Love all your video's. I bought a timber turbo 1.5m. Just waiting on Wisconsin weather. I'm not ready however what is your recommendation for jet trainer? Thanks again and how far you from Cedar Rapids Iowa and do you ever fly at r/c events? Take care. Tom Stark Egg Harbor Wis.

I'm about 2-2.5 hours drive from Cedar Rapids. I work there occasionally too. Habu would be a good trainer EDF... Habu STS 70mm RTF - bit.ly/3fRaLj7 kzbin.info/aero/PLXTH0DstRDc5fYbIobNAtMUz2EoT7FGLl

I think this is your new favorite plane! I don't think I have ever heard you laughing and giggling this much in a video! It appears you're having a great time flying this plane. Did I over hear you say you love this plane. Don't, and I repeat, don't take the plane to bed with you! The camera crew will definitely put you in the dog house!😂
