[@BDTennessee]

Awesome! Sorry for slow replied,didnt seen notification for comment. Do you still have the plane?

[@NeedSpeedRC]

Very nice. Thanks for providing the deflection rates in percentages for the Spektrum users.

[@BDTennessee]

Your welcome! Thanks for watching!

[@jcb6713]

nice set-up ! looking good...have a great year...

[@BDTennessee]

Thank you for the feedback JCB,have good year too :)

[@MrQuestionboy]

Thank you so much for the refer. I love the way you show the measurement on video. Not a lot of flight demo provides this type of information. Cheers

[@BDTennessee]

I appreciate you!

[@bernfranfrancis3012]

Very good idea on the letting us know the settings used on your Spektrum transmitter for rudder, flaps, elevator and ailerons, have not seen that before and find it very useful.

[@BDTennessee]

Glad you liked the info and thanks for watching/feedback :)

[@BDTennessee]

Thanks Gmorphan! I agree KCRC is surrounded by them and steep hills.Made me a better pilot cause i dont want to go down there :D

Nice review.👍

I appreciate that, and thanks for watching!

I get mine Sunday the 8-20-2023 I am going to use your setups. Also was their more room to move the battery any further forward? Asking in case I want to use a 4000.

[@BDTennessee]

You will have plenty of room. Plane in this video was setup nose heavy. Since then i have adjusted this plane alot. I use SMC 4400 all the way forward now and SMC 5300 which is lighter than CNHL in video about 30mm aft on the tray. Everything else the same. Side note: Balance neutral 5mm aft of the CG marks on the wing.

[@FatGuyFliesRC]

@@BDTennessee Thanks so much, I am happier now Fed Ex just sent me an updated arrival! Arriving a day early! TOMORROW!!

[@BDTennessee]

@@FatGuyFliesRC good deal! Ill be on lookout for video :)

[@RC_fidelio]

This was an amazing perfect landing!

[@BDTennessee]

Thanks Hermann :)

[@oscarmok8643]

Another excellent review. I do have a question in regards to the landing flaps, you mentioned 43% with -7% elevator mix, does it mean the elevator goes up 7% or the elevator goes down 7%

[@BDTennessee]

Thanks! -7% means the elevator goes up to hold the nose up.

[@oscarmok8643]

@@BDTennessee Thank you Doesn't the landing flaps will cause the plane nose up (balloon) already?

[@BDTennessee]

@@oscarmok8643 flaps will cause it to nose down,more when you get slower. So mix holds the nose up...

[@Guillebricks]

what about those CNHL baterries?

[@BDTennessee]

Great batteries! Low resistance and reliable at a aggressive price. Heavier then most options but options but good power :)

[@MissurayLaslo]

perfect 🤘

[@BDTennessee]

Thanks Missuray!

[@looneytunes47]

How much is the Arf version of that Jet Now? is Motion Rc the only place to get one?

[@BDTennessee]

ARF plus is 409 USD. Motion RC is US supplier. If you dont have ESC and motor id get the PNP version.Small price difference and power system works good in T33.

[@looneytunes47]

@@BDTennessee So how much is the plug n play version? ive purchased Freewing Jets Before from Motion Rc in the Stock motor esc configeration and they were Gutless and Under Powered IMO so i had to spend the extra coin to upgrade to their Inrunner high perfotmace set up immediatly...

[@BDTennessee]

@@looneytunes47 T33 PNP in high performance (inrunner) is 489. Top speed level flight is 117mph and shallow 45 degree dive to level is 135mph (gps). Plenty of vertical and efficient for good flight times too.

[@looneytunes47]

@@BDTennessee Well if thats the case id be crazy to not opt for the PNP version for only $80 bucks more than the ARF Thanks for your help man...

[@BDTennessee]

@@looneytunes47 i think the same. Welcome, holla anytime :)

[@inthegameroompodcast]

Is that the KCRC field?

[@BDTennessee]

Yes

[@georgecook5152]

I love mine.....

[@BDTennessee]

2 years later i do too! Awesome jets!

Thanks Roland!

[@RC-Flight]

BD excellent video as usual! I notice that you use the AR620 in several or more of your jets. I have about five of these receivers and find their size to be adventurous. But Im not sure how well they work for full range flying. What is your opinion on these receivers versus say an external antenna version? I saw a horizon video where they were discussing this receiver and they claimed that the new Texas Instruments chip that is used for the antenna, actually provides better range then there external antenna receivers? Here is the video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/j5nZfWSfgJdrn68

[@BDTennessee]

Correct i have used them in numerous jets and no issue. I remember that video.Locations i have placed them have been different in each as well. Checking the flight log on 4min flight i get 12-16 fades,which is minimal. External antennas let you move the contact points is things are obstructing the signal. Range has been far as i can fly with AR620,so plenty of range. Last but not least is the size! Compact,simple and bind button.
