[@jeffdillingham2999]

Another great job by the camera crew 👏

[@geofkane2365]

Great, honest and worthwhile appraisal of this good looking plane.

[@johnnymaynard299]

Awesome fun flying Brian ! Great camera coverage camera crew !

[@seanplayford8805]

Got one of these. The ESC accomodates 2C or 3C batteries. It does like to tip stall so need to keep speed up on turns. In fact when compared to 1200mm models it generally needs to be flown a lot faster.

[@cross7776]

I must say I agree with a lot that Brian Phillips have to say that being said I did start myself on a P-51 1.2 June nite but I do have experience with RC trucks and drones and helicopters so if you have experience with any other type of RCs I feel like the 1.2 size is a good size to start at but it is more money, but what the size the wind isn't as much as a concern some of those smaller ones just get tossed around in the sky but either way I'm so glad I got into the RC planes and thanks to Brian Phillips for that👍 PS confidence is a big key in flying these RC planes

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

I had a P-51 Blondie for my 3rd (maybe it was my 4th???) plane and I LOVED it. It was a challenge for me, but LOVED and still LOVE that 1.2m size. It's my favorite P-51 size, but largely due to the size of our runway, and flight area - it's just perfect ;) In a larger arena, bigger might be a LOT better ;)

[@67malibu43]

Check to make sure the prop is snug and held in place firmly by the spinner. I had the same problem with prop noise, and found that the prop was not held in place firmly, and there was a little bit of play that allowed it to rattle/vibrate. I added a washer or two between the prop and spinner so that there was no play. It really help with the prop noise and performance. 3S with no landing gear is the way to go with this plane.

[@mattsmith3135]

I have the Volantex 750mm P-51 and it's been nothing but trouble. This looks like it flies far better.

[@maverickmoonshine2894]

I've got this plane here in UK. It had a fit on my 2nd flight as the Stabilizer was doing random stuff, like when it's setting up after connecting battery! I said my goodbyes as it headed away from me and all control was gone. I shut throttle off it dropped then as it disappeared behind a dividing hedge I gave it full throttle and elevator and to my surprise up she came!! Managed to get her back in one bit. I've only ever used orange receivers but this was first time with a Spektrum. Not much space for everything inside. Must say my HK Tempest 800mm flies much better and was a lot cheaper. Still no idea what happened haven't been flying since.

[@randallandrews120]

3s, no gear...now that plane has my attention. When the time comes to replace my Volantex 750mm P-51 she'll be the one. I'll always be a hand launch/belly lander because of where I fly. Will have to convert to a 2 blade prop too. Belly landing has proven to be an expensive venture on my 3 and 4 bladed props. Brian, thanks for popping in that 3s for us to see the difference in performance. P.S. Did you ever check the ESC? P.S.S. I agree about the pain and suffering when it came to learning how to fly. That Volantex P-51 of mine has more hot glue and toothpicks holding it together than you would ever believe.😂

[@roadstar499]

We always ran those 800 mm on 3s..i built a few kit versions years ago..fun planes

[@reinaldostrobel81]

Did you fly 3S with stock motor and ESC? Or what motor and ESC did you use?

[@SmokeyMountainRcTravisThompson]

That's an awesome Lil p51. Nice with 3s bud 👊👊👍👍

[@coyoteman8073]

I should have watched this when I got my BBD p51 as I run 2s as instructed, but now I'm going to put 3s in so I can have some more fun 😁

[@capnhardway]

Very nice demonstration,

[@kucomat]

beautiful plane, hands down

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

It's a looker!

[@jybeauful]

Bravo Mr P. Love the warbirds, I"m bias for P51D.😀

[@jonnycatt138]

This thing with a eflite 30amp esc and a 3s 1300 is amazing. Throw a 1300 4s and its a absolute rocket! I run 2 blade prop and no landing gear. Great p51 for size

[@broskibro7099]

How long are your flights using a 3s 1300?

[@jonnycatt138]

@broskibro7099 depends on throttle management. Easy 5 min. Its fastttt tho so i tend to have a heavy thumb most flights lol

[@jacobgrav]

What 2 blade props do you use?

[@jonnycatt138]

​@@jacobgravstock 4blade just cut the 2 off

You are the MAN, and darn it I love your videos, have a great day.

[@Sgtbowman71]

Just ordered this from Horizon Hobbie in 3s. can't wait.

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

Thanks!!!

[@rackmasterh]

Same way I feel about their Corsair on 2s: always at very high throttle and worrying about stalking when you're not. Don't enjoy flying it as pretty as it is.

[@RC-Deathsqaudron-zv1iq]

dam the plane flys smooth.

[@jthatcher36]

Gens Ace 1300 3S fits perfectly in it! This bird is much better on 3S.

[@truenaturestormers2525]

Smart pack the way to go, YES. For me any way. So much fun love ya.

[@truenaturestormers2525]

Oh YAAA aaaa 3s. For fun.

[@jayaustin3096]

Great honest review of the little guys. They look like too much for me flying high speed all the time. But you gave a honest opinion. Thats why your awesome. Now what's for dinner. Talapia and salad here.

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

Yeah, this plane is great on 3S, but on 2S it's barely got enough power to pull through a loop, if you're not already carrying some speed from trading altitude for airspeed. Tonight, a jalapeno and pepper soup - Megan loves making soups, and they're always really good!

[@AL-RCjunkie]

Wow! That livery detail is 🔥 Especially for a 2s! Power saves lives! 3s is a big improvement- if the ESC continues to handle it. Nice model, though 👍

[@djr01974]

Try it on the 3s that the umx voodoo uses 😉

[@truenaturestormers2525]

With you brother, love ya.

[@collinmccallum]

nice! thumbs up!

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

Thanks!

[@martr]

Great video, thanks. Can you provide some information on what "windsocks" you are using ?

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

Here's the link - amzn.to/48M5mXG ...and we use the 20' lengths, not the 75' We've got them mounted on THESE poles, which have been AMAZING! Never had one fail, but have had to replace the spinner things after very strong thunder storms - amzn.to/3ClkG1j (22' tall, and they are SOOOO dang good!)

[@martr]

Is that a no then on windsock info ?

[@cross7776]

Once again always love your stuff you're the reason why I got into RC planes and why I have the micro Voodoo the FMS Mustang 800 big beautiful doll the 1.2 June night and the 1.5 mustang that I change the name to Dark Horse with a different paint Scheme than the Lou for

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

Thanks again ;)

[@readytorock308]

Been flying mine on 3s for 6 years now. Same ESC

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

NICE!!! Thanks for the details, and makes me feel way more confident. P.S. Looks like you're into PPG? I'm just getting ready to get fired back up for spring....getting things back in order, and can't wait to get back in the air!

[@readytorock308]

@@BrianPhillipsRC sure thing!! I just preordered the new Ultra Stick, can’t wait get it. I got the ARF because I have too much random electronics laying around. I’ve been flying paramotors for over 5 years now, it’s truly awesome!

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

wellllllllll ;)

[@gerardvdwest9378]

Hi Brian. Thank you very much for such a helpful video. I really enjoy flying this plane! However, because I’m not landing on a smooth surface - I’m landing on grass - the plane keeps tipping over and I keep breaking the prop. Could you please recommend a 2 blade prop alternative? Thanks for your help!

[@sethgreenberg7725]

I used a venum 800 3s with a 2 blade prop and its very fast and handles great

[@jacobgrav]

What 2 blade props do you use?

[@sethw1230]

The picture of that 20 amp esc on there website shows 2-4s lipo on the sticker...I say try a 4s now lol...Also can you do a video of the 800mm Corsair on the 3s please? I like them both but cant make up mind.

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

They'll probably handle the 4S for a while. Some of the Motors are close to capacity, is part of the issue, but we've done it before.

[@truenaturestormers2525]

Flaps OK Brian, lets see that.

[@meowygames5241]

Are the FMS 800mm series good for beginners? Which one is the best?

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

They are NOT, in my opinion. I'd get a bigger one, or another type of plane. They ARE good for budget, since they're less expensive, but less expensive does not mean easier to fly, unfortunately.

[@maverickmoonshine2894]

I never realized its 2 cell been flying it on 3 cell 😂. Explains why the batteries were tight. Although Spektrum 3c 800mah jst fits perfect.

[@seanplayford8805]

Should have been 2S & 3S! Always flown on 3S off of grass. Only negatives, get a few spare props as they like to break. Also elevator linkage when set needs a spot of glue as runs out of thread

[@moaborbustrc1330]

Hey man love you channel . So I've had 3 of theses 800m planes and just recently I exploded my corsair into a rock. well I stripped all the electronics and was looking at the esc in small letters on the bottom it says this esc is good from 2s to 4s so it's hard to find a 4s that will fit but I run the same 3s batteries all the time never had an issue

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

Yep, but I suspect on 4S, you might fry the motor, even if the ECS is rated for 4S. Either way, if it needs some pep in it's step, what's the worst that could happen...a fiery law-dart??? ;)

[@moaborbustrc1330]

Who doesn't like a fiery law dart lol great channel man

[@feisaltoor]

New to this…..I have seen different 3s batteries out there….which 3s is best? 11.1v 2200mah 30c smart? I see an option for G2 in the link?

[@feisaltoor]

Which 3s did you run in your video?

[@captainnibby]

The battery that Horizon Hobby suggests right now to buy with this plane is a 3s, so maybe they listened to you and others...

[@RicJG7]

Any idea how to reduce the gain on the reflex V2? Mine oscillates badly at higher speeds in auto levelling

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

The Reflex is pretty much locked down, BUT you could change the mechanical output from the servo. Change the hole position on the control surface OUT some, or on the SERVO Control Arm IN some, and this will effectively change how much you're stabilizer will impact flight performance. The bummer is that you'll have to change your SERVO RANGE UP from +/-100% to a bit more to counter this change from your control authority over the plane, but the Reflex will effectively running lower gains ;) Hope this makes sense. It will work to help with a high speed osculation, but I haven't had this issue, so not sure why you are...

[@RicJG7]

That definitely helped, but I've crashed and repaired it a couple times and it completely went away after that. Made a plastic motor mount to bolt into. Flying smooth now and no rattling

[@truenaturestormers2525]

So bad ass on 3 S

[@cross7776]

And just note FMS big beautiful doll 800 millimeter cut off two of the propellers and put a 3S 2200 in it and she'll fly great

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

I bet she'd have less drag, but the 4 blade prop is such a beauty!!!

[@garygullikson6349]

I have a same size Tower Hobbies Miss America P-51 that uses 3S 2200mah packs. Has flaps and retracts. It is a little too fast for my comfort. Rudder and elevator are small and lack authority at low speed as during takeoff and landings. A hot pilot should do all right with 3S.

[@coloradofotomatt]

Late to the party...but looking for a P51 to replace my XK A280 P51D that will bind to my $pektrum NX8 without having to replace or install receiver. Is this it?!

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

Nope, if you want to bind to your NX8 and you don't want to install a receiver, you'll have to get a Bind and Fly from Horizon. These would be your P-51 choices... bprc.me/P51 If you decide you're OK with buying and installing a receiver, this one would fit the bill.

[@truenaturestormers2525]

I want to fly with you one day.

[@pajamamar2011]

No lights??

[@alfonsodominguez363]

Flaps with one servo? I would really like to see how that can be done.

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

It's been done by me MANY times. Watch some of my old UMX plane videos, and go back to the Carbon Cub 1.3m, and off the top of my head, I think the Sport Cub 1.1m as well (might be mistaken on that last one...) Either way, if you want to do it with one servo it's totally possible, but might be EASIER with two servos.

[@alfonsodominguez363]

@@BrianPhillipsRC I'll check it, I was not being sarcastic , I really don't know how that can be done

[@Blindfinds]

When it comes to hobby king, I should a listen Bought a brand new plane they sent me a used one which stripped out screws and a missing vertical stabilizer That was back in February They sent me the wrong tail section And they want me to do all the foot work for their screwup

[@DC-uj5rq]

Why can't you set "flaparons" on this plane?

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

You can pretty much always do it, but only with some significant mods, and when using FMS's offering, the Reflex V2, it's not available without a ton of effort. I'd rather add INBOARD FLAPS, since it would be super easy, and more effective too.

[@RARenfield]

Nice flying. But, meh. Voodoo eats this one's lunch, at 2/3rds it's size. 4 blades don't affect the Voodoo's crazy good power, with or without gear. My Voodoo even handles FLOATS without breaking a sweat. Survey says: Nerp.
