Freewing T-45 Maiden and Crash pilot Daniel

[@Huntbk5]

U made my night,,, UP UP UP UP , then silence 😅 . this what happens when u forget the deference between warbirds and EDF when speed and throttle control is the key.

[@rcflyguy8514]

Just a general observation. Not an issue of battery size etc but more one of skill level based solely on this footage. The entire flight seemed to be out of control from the start and it seemed as if the aircraft was darting all over the sky as well as the throttle being close to wide open for the duration of the flight. In addition if someone else has to trim your aircraft during flight then you need to invest in a good strap or perhaps even a tray as well as slowing the aircraft enough so that you can keep up with it during the flight. Looks like a new fuselage and some gear will get you back in action! Bummer!

Thank you for your comments. I'll pass them on to the pilot that was flying. Cheers, and thanks for watching.

Crashed many planes...for various reasons...having a lot of expo,getting up high and getting trims set is a must...of coarse some planes are also much easier to fly then others...nerves can sometimes get the best of you especially if you are new or worried about crashing.

[@victorrcjets7660]

bummer about it. not the first T-45 to go in.

[@johnnewguy3374]

Oh i forgot im flying 5000s 100c lol a lil more battery will probably help, i also have speed indicator with stall warning,i call it my whoop whoop indicator,i think i got it set for 38mph or 40mph i get it slow it starts going off, its power on , keep at it youll get it!

[@bobturner3388]

I'm so sorry! God knows everyone that fly's these planes/jets crashes. Nothing said repairs your problem, just wanted you to know "I feel your pain"! But I never quit!

[@ghoustanable]

My buddy actually had the plane repaired and back up and running flying the following weekend. Cheers and thanks for watching.

[@johnnewguy3374]

She will bite you,i love mine but you gotta keep speed up

[@BDTennessee]

Sorry to see T45 went down :(

[@israeljuarez3707]

The crash is an example of an accelerated tip stall, which this particular model is fond of doing. I noted that the plane made a fast tight turn ljust before the crash. and this resulted in an accelerated tip stall that led to the crash. This plane is what we know as the king of tip stalls. You fly slowly? You lose power? You attempt to do tight loops and abrupt changes in direction? You flare just a tad too much when landing? You take off with insufficient speed? Yes, tip stall. And no SAFE will save this model from destruction. Once you tip stall at low altitude, it's over. And this model is so heavy for its size that its wing loading suffers accordingly. Therefore, it's critical to fly it scalelike at all times, and never, ever cut the throttle on landing. This jet DOES NOT glide. It simply drops like a rock in a tip stall manner. Takeoff must be scalelike-very shallow climb, not Timber style.

Well said 👏 👌

[@lseguy]

Sorry. 4000 too small. 5000mah for that size plane. 5000 possibly would have had enough power left to have gotten out of the situation at the end. I also use bank angle limits (assigned to a switch so I can turn it off when I choose to) on landing and takeoff to avoid unintentional rollover in flight. That has saved me many a plane many a time.

[@katrinatrafford5104]

That was a short video. Bad luck sir 😢

[@davidgerlach1132]

No postmortem? 🤔

[@ghoustanable]

His approach was too fast, turning too sharp on the go-around, resulting in the tip stall.

[@davidgerlach1132]

@@ghoustanable I do this quite frequently with my Viper 90mm!

[@fastr144]

lower the rates on that plane. the t45 likes to high speed stall when pulling too hard on elevator

[@williewideback]

I Know da felling!!

[@Jhill035]

LSO energy lol.

[@txkflier]

Why? Needs a pilot..
