Freewing F9F-8 Cougar CRASH!!!

[@PetrincicBrosRC]

The last landing was great my friend. Big salute from Slovenia, Pilot Robert

[@gooniac33]

Glad to see you still making videos!! This plane flies incredible but just can't stand how it looks....

[@davidknutz3314]

Holy Smokes, I just came back home from a 2 week job in Sunrise Florida. If I would have known that is where you flew, I would have showed up just to meet you a watch. Next time.

[@dougvelez6959]

It was good to hang out with you this morning bud!

[@buddy1065]

I couldn't have a better wingman! Great job on the camera!

[@camtran4765]

It was beautiful and sounded great! Sorry for the crashing.

[@8poundquark]

Bummer. But, back in the saddle 😂. Nice, very nice 👍

[@buddy1065]

New parts arrive Thursday so should be ready to fly Friday. Meanwhile I can fly her as she is.

[@8poundquark]

@@buddy1065 Good attitude brother 👍

[@mikessi]

Aero braking without an airspeed indicator is a difficult and tricky business, but you seem to have it figured out as well as anyone. I’m sure Hootie is suitably impressed even if he won’t admit it.

[@ModelAV8RChannel]

Nice flying! Glad you have it figured out. She'll be good as new with the ordered parts. Curious...can you bypass the gyro? I'd prefer AS3X simply because I'm familiar with it and can program it the way I want.

[@enzok6414]

Nice flying. Sorry about the crash. Another thing I noticed is your main gear door is not 2 staged. Did you plug them in the wrong port on the circuit board?

[@buddy1065]

No. In fact the flaps did not work at all until I found one of the flap wires plugged into the wing board with the wrong polarity. So could be another error from the factory. This was a PnP jet

[@enzok6414]

@@buddy1065 Maybe you just have to cycle them gears. So the door starts sequencing.

[@romieiv]

Noticw landing gear doors open when he is on the ground, there is a switch inside that will close the doors one the gear is deployed..

[@LoveRC]

Stall warning! Stall warning! It took time for the EDF to spool back up.

[@sanexup1038]

Dang it! Its always hard to determine, do I throttle up and risk the stall or chop it and take the smack down. Or throttle up and push the nose down.These are usually the questions I'm asking myself as I break out the glue.

[@bradbutler6861]

I wouldn't use reverse thrust, because it really comes in slow with full flaps and a lil power..

[@lewiemotorsports3616]

Amazing footage, you greased most of those landings, what camera is that??

[@buddy1065]

Canon G20 camcorder

@buddy1065 thank you.

[@charlesrestivo870]

So u where taking off one way then landing the wrong way with the wind ?

[@tonydeaton1967]

FThe next video will be learning to parallel park your F9F Cougar in downtown Manhattan.

[@iriquiosgunship]

It was hard to see the crash. After repair, you landed perfectly. What happened to the first landing? It looked like you did good, and then?

[@buddy1065]

I was just trying to wheelie on the maiden otherwise it would have never happened. I wasn't yet familiar with the flight characteristics. I think I still need a few more flights to be more familiar with it.

Fw hit a home run
