[@michelpetrus]

No one provides such detailed and insightful content like you. Another awesome video. Really appreciate your honest review at 1:27:15 , it’s so rare. What’s great about RC planes, is that some planes makes oneself humble (either tough to setup or to fly). So there is always room to improve, that’s how it never gets boring.

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

Agreed! Love the potential of this plane, but I need a couple nice afternoons to get her dialed in and flying to her full potential. She's so pretty, and I want to connect all the dots so I can really get it working awesome...and build my confidence too ;)

Nice to see you fly a plane that's made of wood instead of polystyrene, love the laminated finish, I was not expecting you to crash the plane but it survived the crash which shows you how strong the plane is, if that was a polystyrene plane that wing would of broke off.

hi Brian.. thanks for the new video...glad to see you moving up in the world LOL..thanks camera crew for the superb filming.. all 6 hours of it...`glad to see you also human that crashes airplanes...i just got a old (but new condition) eflite pitts bi-plane about a week ago, and very similar to your crash on flight 4 ... i had on my bi-plane.. but a bit of CA and a drop of paint and she looks like new again.. balsa planes still very nice but the risk on them are a lot more then a foamy... i believe that a balsa plane makes you a better pilot because you know with a foamy.. you crash (and i don`t mean destroy) you can always hotglue the thing back together, where with balsa its not that easy...so i found that flying balsa, you either need to be spot on, be on top of your game or just fly your foamy... and the day that you do get it all 100%, makes it so much more rewarding then a foamy. .. you know after a silk smooth butter landing and you taxi back and the club guys are clapping for you and you get those adrenaline shakes afterwards... that is what is the best part of this hobby.

Yea Brian, the packaging could’ve been properly reinforced and secured much better…. I agree, I do believe there is too much weight in on the motor box for just so cardboard insert… and a piece of plywood stopping the from coming through the front of the box… they could have molded a stir o foam insert and used a zip tie around the motor section… I’m sure they will be on it on the next batch they ship out…👍🏻

[@MWall711]

I'm glad you reviewed this plane! It made it on my list once I saw it listed on HH. I think you can refine your gain settings. Check out The RC Air Marshall's series on forward programming. He shows a great way to set up the gains before flight and capture the gains for each axis. I think it's part 12 in his series.

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

Yeah, we did this too, but it's just tough to refine when it's so dang windy...we will investigate further if weather would ever permit ;)

[@randyhardee9918]

I wish you would do a video on programming the reciever that you put in this model. The recievers back in the day from the shelf had be be programmed using the spectrum program cable, especially the gains, the safe select, etc. The recievers that come in the BNF models are already programmed for you, or us.

Fyi.. I got one of these for xmas this year and it flew great. Let me tell you what i found i kept the org wooden prop that is came to but i flew it on a 4s 50c 6000 and the cg it right on riding even with where the 6s you had positioned.

[@pianoplaying2728]

This thing looks like a monster to fly, for its price range I’d say this plane has much more power than the e-flite fw-190. If I were to buy one I would still get the e-flite fw-190 because I don’t have the will power to buy something that has the possibility of shattering with a small crash, but this plane looks like it has more performance and a larger size for its price range compared to the fw-190

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

The Fw-190 still makes me nervous. I like flying this plane, but it's scary to me still...since I don't want to kill it ;)

[@randyhardee9918]

Brian Phillip's RC - I have an AR636A reciever that came out of the Eflite P47 Razorback that I no longer have. Do you think that I could use it in the Hanger 9 P47 Thunderbolt and it would fly good without re- programming it and not change any gains? I feel that it would do real good without changing anything.

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

You could, but you may need to reprogram some directions and limit your servo output to make sure you don't over-drive the servos.

[@michaelkrailo5725]

It looks like it wouldn't be that hard to simply cut the ailerons to split them into outboard aileron and inboard flaps. Add two servo's and your good to go. This would require a 7 channels unless you put them both on Y adapters which I don't like. It would be better to have full span ailerons when you want it. I'm wondering how this compares to the Commander on 4S. Don't know what the weight difference is but these two planes look very similar and I really like the commander. Of course the commander has the outboard ailerons like you desire. What do you think? I really would like a balsa version of the Commander and this looks so similar. I like having full separate flaps on landing the commander because it just keeps floating on me otherwise. The only thing I don't like is the stripes on the top of the wing. I'm used to seeing stripes like that on the bottom of the wing and that would mess with my orientation. I would have to remove the stripes on the top and put them on the bottom.

[@mattmiller7494]

I’ve owned this plane twice now because I tried to fly it before I had the skills to fly it, so don’t buy this plane unless you are confident in your skills as a pilot. I’m not going to say it’s a hard plane to fly because it isn’t, once you get your settings correct and your CG in the right spot it will fly great. 6s 5,000 almost all the way forward with 70% rates and 20% expo will have everything nice and soft for you. The gains they suggest aren’t correct either, I ended up with 50,81,25 to get it to fly without over correcting on the roll axis. My flapperons worked well at -35 -5 & -85 -8, this gives you an up mix with your elevator because flapperons will make the nose dive. On 6s in a down slope not a full on dive the GPS on this bird went 107 mph, flat and level it would hit 95 all day long. It is amazingly fast and it definitely doesn’t fly like a foamy. On a 6s 5,000 horsing it around with some speed passes I had only consumed 2,500mah at 6 minutes so this plane could probably go 8 minutes without issue.

Still watching 4:17 in.

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

Nice!!!

[@pilotmiami1]

Super

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

Thanks, and agreed!

[@txkflier]

Only 6 hours?

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

LOL - Exactly!!!

[@corneliusbroussard8916]

I won one of these in a raffle thanks for the video

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

Awesome! Good for you Cornelius!!!

[@frankmick8683]

Mine came the same way plus the pilot was flopping around. Wasn't thrilled.

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

That would be annoying! My motor mount has never given me an issue since though, so that's a plus ;)

[@aristotleoracles1457]

stunning!!

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

Agreed!

[@MadLudwig]

That P47 is a beauty but it needs a 4 stroke glow engine. Sounds all wrong with electric power.

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

I think this plane would be nice for as a gaser!

[@simons6208]

Nice

[@thelongestday64]

Love your videos, but do you (two) still have time for your kids? (Serious question.) Best regards from Switzerland!

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

We have 4 kids, and last week was very bad in that regard. We spend like 60 hours on RC stuff...way too busy. We can't do that all the time, and this doesn't include my full time job, and our personal activities that we can't share about (yet - next week we should be able to announce something)

[@thelongestday64]

@@BrianPhillipsRC Yup, that is why I was getting worried about you and your family... you and your wife work really hard on this excellent (THE BEST) RC channel and you work full-time and you have 4 kids (we only have 1 and I feel tired every day...)... be careful, mind your health and take care of your family first, we (the viewers of your channel) can live with a few videos less easily.... all the best from Switzerland!

Tail heavy that

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

I thought we had it right on flight 3 and 4...but we'll see. I want to get it more refined.

[@redwineisfine]

Holy 💩 6 hours? Yikes..

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

yep... 6 hours and 13 minutes ;) I'm waiting for a few time stamps at the end - LOL LOL LOL!!!

Brian, Brian, Brian... I have experienced the same thing as you are feeling about that plane and I don't like seeing you feel that way. Landing it there is a handful and it's not your flying skills. They are getting pretty dang good imo. Your flying site is just way too small for a plane of that type and size! You are being too hard on yourself. I've watched you land so many planes there, and time after time marveled that you get them down in one piece. The approaches are too high and short coming over the trees, and your actual runway is WAY too short! The margin for error on approach is so narrow, it makes you force the landing with no room to bleed off the airspeed and grease it in. My RC runway is 365' long and 65' wide, with short grass (way easier to land on) and a tree line to my right about twice as far away as yours. To the left I have a 1000' to the trees, but I'm coming in over our horse pasture and a fence. So I have longer approaches and a longer runway, and aerobatic planes that weigh 7 pounds with a 60" wingspan or bigger feels tight to land there. I can easily fly and land them. But tight approaches give you one line in, and if you are less than perfect, it's a struggle. More to the point, I bought the E-flite Havoc Xe EDF jet, and it's a breeze to fly for me. But I was STRUGGLING with the landings. I took it to a big blacktop parking lot with sight lines to forever, and had no problem greasing it in nose high on the mains to a rollout until the front wheel touched. It needed a longer, lower approach, AND time in the flair to settle over the runway. You need more room my friend, sincerely Sam Hallstrom. Btw, I really enjoy your in depth videos! PS. I was a Delaware RC member (before I moved to Wisconsin) and we had a 750' long grass runway. THAT was nice!

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

Thanks Sam! I realize we're cramped, but it is AMAZING to fly from here - not sure if you know this yet, but we bought the property next to ours and now we have almost 23 acres, but still won't have QUITE that much room for landings....and even if I did, it'll be for FULL SCALE flying. It might sound crazy, but I like the challenge, but we have some trees that could come down and make another approach. Trouble we have is when the wind isn't helpful, it's actually pretty tough, and most pilots don't get it until they're in a 360 or 720 degree base leg turn in the "bowl" - LOL ;) BUT I love it this way...low margins for error do make for higher consequence flying, and I would LOVE to have the 40 Acres across the road some day too...then I could put in a 1500+ foot long runway at almost 90 degrees off our primary runway...how many runways on one property before it's a TRUE airport???? LOL Thanks for the encouragement, and for being here with us!

[@RAYROTHSTEIN66]

I'm happy it's balsa, but that's one ugly looking version of the p47, reminds me of the dynamite fun scale planes.

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

I shouldn't comment ;)

[@Johnstonearch]

can you go through a whole step first on your won, instaed of letting us watch all your mistakes and reparations. The give a clean straight forward presentation at half the time.

[@engineerahmed7248]

I got a spitfire. I appreciate eiptical wing planes r v hard to dial in but nth can beat their charm !
