Hangar 9 Aermacchi MB-339 with a KingTech K-85G4 Turbine

[@FarmerFpv]

Ali is awesome. He helped me with my first Turbine setting up my AR20419T 20-channel Power Safe Receiver with Synapse AS3X+ through the forward programming of my ix14+. He did it so fast. Then he took it up for the first flight. Ali then explained the best way to come in for a landing coaching me into a buttery triple-bounce landing. Lol. He is the coolest guy on the Horizon team IMO.

I had the privilege of meeting Ali last weekend. He’s an awesome individual and a very talented pilot on anybody’s airplane!!

[@FLYRIGHTBoys]

Yep he’s a very awesome person and doesn’t mind sitting down and talking to you about any questions that you might have on that plane or any other RC plane. He help me a lot on my turbine jet?

[@rodgersrcaviation2785]

@@FLYRIGHTBoys man he took the time to fly one of my foamboard creations and did things I didn’t know it would do!!

[@lyleblack194]

Impressive stability and slow flight characteristics. Looks like a load of fun.

[@andystoybox1723]

Wow ! That take off was quick !

[@Illustrioussoles]

Cant wait to have my mine! May sit up for a month or so until i get comfortable and ready to fly it but having it in the hanger gone be sweet!

[@8HrToGo]

Great flight and landing. Awesome!

I flew RC planes for about 12 years then I have been taking a break from the hobby. This looks like a real cool plane from Horizon Hobby. I had bought many different planes from Horizon. I wonder if the pilot ever lost orientation for a bit when the plane was far away? I always put orange strips on the bottom of my wings to help me with that. This does look like an excellent beginner turbine jet I would give a try when I get back into the hobby. I had prefered flying the electric planes vs gas but a turbine is a different animal.

Looks to be a winner.

[@celestinogalvan1076]

I got my on Wednesday.

[@tennriverluver3534]

Ali makes it look so easy.

[@joshhoman]

Neat flying!

[@Dukesy]

Thats amazing. Whats the other jet in the video?

[@Frank-zg8ms]

Very cool plane 👍 Just a quick question , this model is bigger and almost 1kg heavier then Phoenix BAE-Hawk Here recommended turbines are from 60 to 85 I see a K-70 onboard this in this video , so a K-65 should be an okay thrust setting for the Hawk ? Really appreciate any information Thank you and safe ,happy flying’s 😂🙏 Show less

[@sheeeene7]

Ali could knife edge a house brick! 😜

[@mitchilito99]

I can't get one soon enough.

[@drmrjon]

What kind of fuel does it use?

[@FLYRIGHTBoys]

It uses a Kingtech turbine so you can use either jet fuel or a diesel oil mix also kerosene and thanks for checking out my channel

[@Danpstew1]

Shortest takeoff and Shortest landing, I've seen ! Kevin I know it was exciting to be spotter for an "Aero-Designer"

[@FLYRIGHTBoys]

Yes it was. It was a awesome experience that I will remember for a very long time. He is an awesome guy and didn’t mind me asking 1000 questions about everything dealing with RC life

[@hoyvintagecycles2936]

could these do well as an edf?

[@FLYRIGHTBoys]

I asked him that he said that these jets were pacifically designed for turbines, but he said that he wouldn’t be surprised if someone put a EDF on it

[@hydrojet7x70]

Ali needs to upgrade to a FrSky X20S!!

[@robertskupien3973]

They sure could have made it look better. Don't care for the inlets.

I just wonder if there is some sort of scorn or lack of respect for Italian Air Force or what?🤔🤯 Because I can’t explain how come all other warbirds are painted with the colours of their air forces, but this MB339 has a TOTALLY NONSENSICAL colour scheme, when there are many nice Schemes available to chose . For example the Freccie Tricololri scheme is well known, colourful and easy to iron on! BTW this Hangar 9 model is actually made (well enough) in Viet Nam by Phoenix models!

[@FLYRIGHTBoys]

When I did the interview with him and and have a personal talk with him, I asked him about the color scheme and why did he go with the orange and blue? He said that I was going for a sport model, and he was saying later down the line they were going to go for a more of a military colored version

[@ToyManFlyer1100]

😮😢...Definition and definitely like most guys that fly turbines... Aloof and unfriendly... And please don't ask 'em a buncha questions 'bout ANYTHANG...!!!

[@tannercurtis1836]

It would be nice if they stopped doing silly aerobatics and did some burner passes so we can see the speed envelop. Yes, we know it can takeoff and land slowly, but it's a fkn jet man. We need to see some speed.

[@FLYRIGHTBoys]

He told me that it’s not a speed demon you’re looking at possibly 175, 180 TopSpeed

[@tannercurtis1836]

@@FLYRIGHTBoys miles an hour or kilometers? 180mph is cooking.

[@mitchilito99]

I think you're missing the point of this jet, Tanner.
