What a great video! I liked the way you flew the plane with the cowl off first to be able to make adjustments. The P47 is a very stable and forgiving plane. You are a very down to earth person and I love your sense of humor and you just being you. Awesome job Sir.

[@HobbyView]

Thanks so much for your kind comments.

[@scotabot7826]

What a great review. I really enjoyed both videos. I've never had a thunderbolt that didn't fly great. You need to do as many reviews as you can, because you do such a thorugh and concise job. Thanks!!!

[@ShadowOppsRC]

I agree Scotabot!

[@bones007able]

Just found this on my feed... now can't stop watching... I quit the hobby years ago... but watching this is getting me hyped up to give it another go... Great Job!

[@bogtrotter2239]

Nice one! This guy sounds like the Bob Ross of the RC world - & that's a compliment!

[@joewoodchuck3824]

Your narration is as great as the video. Another balancing option is to either create a compartment or attach a small container such as a pill bottle. Into either you can gradually add lead shot, steel shot, or any available hardware to any exact balance. Harbor Freight has very inexpensive hardware assortments suitable as weight. Larger Walmart stores has some similar. Tractor supply sells common nuts and bolts for $2.69 per pound for any size.

[@mightylonesome9426]

You remind me of a kid on Christmas morning as you watched your P47 fly for the first time. Wonderful!

[@CedarTV]

Seeing this fly gives me inspiration for my Hangar 9 P47 I've been building the past couple of years!!!! Keep up the great video's and flying!!

[@dukecraig2402]

Well done, nice plane, nice build, nice video etc etc... I used to fly radio controlled helicopters 40 years ago, after graduating high school and enlisting in the military and life since I haven't been anywhere near the RC hobbies but am very tempted to get back into it, watching these videos I'm amazed at how far all of this has come. I'm looking forward to more of your videos for guidance and insight into getting back into the hobby. Very nice and keep up the good work 👍👍👍.

[@kippnashleymiller3752]

I laughed when you imitated the firing of your machine guns. It shows that we’re all big kids and just want to play with our toys. Keeping it simple and fun!!

[@halrichard1969]

These kits seem so easy these days. When I was young we had to use so many bulkheads and stringers epoxied and pinned to actually build the fuselage and wings. Now it seems so easy. Very tempting.

[@steriskyline4470]

the razorback is one of the most beautiful planes ever made i think! absolutely adore your channel, always cheers me up while im awake at 4am struggling to sleep, thank you sir.

[@chriskayakq-ster7264]

Sounds great and looks even better! I love the Razorbacks they are one of my favorite warbirds to fly! Very nice assembly and review flight videos! Thanks !

[@paulsoftley8170]

Great job, really enjoyed the build and the maiden.

[@tonyaccurso1090]

Congrats Fitz! Excellent job, as always!

[@RTD553]

Beautiful. Man you know what you're doing. Subscribed.

[@theneohobbyist]

Outstanding video and channel! I've been working my way through your videos since stumbling upon them and they have been very entertaining. Your videos remind me of the hobby programs (generally model railroading but a bit of RC as well) that used to air on PBS when I was a kid. Informative and genuine - enthusiastic presentations showcasing model aviation. Thank you for creating and sharing such quality content.

[@ZenonZolek]

Great video, you made the build look easy also, thanks

[@GonnaSin]

You're really good at this whole thing.

[@arthurvanaalst]

Thank you very much for the post of this fanatical video with a lot of information. I like to look at your "posts" because I find the way of your presentation incredibly relaxed. No excessive fuss and shouting but very pleasant. By the way, you have a very nice voice and the models you choose are always up-to-date. Thank you for all this and I hope you will make many more videos.

[@daveboyers4549]

Terrific video, Sir. That took a ton of work, and it shows.

[@bassmith448bassist5]

Very nice video. Have you considered going up one size on the tail wheel??? That might help with the appearant twitchy ground handling.

[@timandshannon03]

Clean looking flight! The Maiden flight on my P-51 years ago ended very poorly. Never built another P-51 out of frustration! Lol

[@mrdayyumyum3712]

Really enjoyable to watch and listen to.

[@RichardT2112]

“Just don’t crash your plane that I built!” Hahaha 😂

[@gleno1]

Really appreciate your video! I have the same model running a tacon110 electric motor. With two 6-cell 4000 milliamp batteries in series, Castle creation 80 amp high voltage speed controller with external battery for receiver. Apc prop 15/8 (not thin ecectric) Had to set throttle stop at 65% to keep from destroying this airplane. Unlimited vertical performance. 7 minutes flight time at half throttle. Very nice flyer. Nice to see a new video on this model! Thanks again!

[@scottfirman]

Nice plane. As a small engine mechanic, the burbling drove me nuts. I know its a new engine and probably set up a bit rich. I love the new 4 strokes. No mess of oil everywhere. I was suprised at how much weight it took to balance it but thats what it took then thats what it took. Its best to use more epoxy when gluing on those horns than not enough. Good thing you caught that!

[@AustNRail]

Great video with the way you edited and narrated it. Love your work and cheers from Sydney Australia

[@hotdogy12345]

Excellent pre-flight check!

[@happygilmore2100]

What a beauty, I was a bit sceptical about the servos not being powerful enough but seems to do the job.

[@roypennock8046]

As a Canadian I dig the Avro Arrow behind you.👍🍁

[@JoshWeaverRC]

What an awesome story, oh I mean video! Well to tell it bro. Looking forward to watching more of your videos. Why has KZbin not put your videos in front of me before now.

[@glenncerny8403]

Good performing airplane. Nice flying.

[@andylarner3531]

awesome model well done from the UK

[@smattext]

I really enjoyed your two videos on this plane! it fly's super nice good job!

[@barryanderson5116]

Really enjoyed your construction and flight videos ! Very well done. I have been looking at this plane and after your vids I believe I will be flying one of these this summer. Thank You and all the best ...

"No More Excuses!" I'm Subscribing!

[@thierryloop4039]

Merci pour pour la suite de la vidéo, très beau P-47 😉🇫🇷

[@captainkttyhwk]

Would love to fly with you...great attitude.

[@spyder000069]

If you want faster starting keep your ignition turned off and on a cold engine take two fingers and plug the exhaust port and flip the engine over 2-3 times. It will prime it. Then turn your ignition on and give it a flip. Also those servo horns are scary. I wouldn't trust them. I would want them pinned from the other side or some way to keep them captured. There will be a lot of force on the control surface with that size model. If it has any flutter those are going to give. To pricey of a plane to not take the extra precaution. The extra lead weight in the nose may have been avoided if the ignition system was mounted to the front of the firewall under the cowl (assuming there was enough space to keep it hidden). Less dead weight=better especially on a warbird.

[@scottfirman]

Would have kept it cooler as well.

[@jamest6837]

good job guys and great flying skills!

[@Darksagan]

Excellent flyer.

[@Everett-xe3eg]

Great video! It flew very well and im glad the aileron from the other video did pop out again.

[@rcrotorfreak]

Woah you having a good time flying that. Love the channel, the plane and you're flying. :D

[@daz2372]

Hahah "I almost FW it" clasic mate 🤣

[@ronaldwitt972]

Nice job on build and solo flight...hope you many more nice flights

[@MichaelKaufman257]

Man does that sound awesome in the air! Great video!! Excited to see more of your content, thanks!

[@tomandalbert]

Nice to see it flying.

[@spottyjack614]

Beautiful plane!!! And great job building it...

[@wolfgangrumpel9509]

Hi , well done great flight. Congrats 😃 Which engine did you choose?

[@americanrebel413]

Very cool man! Thank you for sharing this.

[@sendit2873]

12 ounces holy crap that is alot of freaking weight

[@mlarsen77]

Is there any concern that the holes drilled in the engine mount for those cg weights might become a weak spot due to engine torque or vibration? I'm not a RC pilot..... but just curious. Great looking plane and I enjoy your commentary on all your videos. Keep up the good work!

[@HobbyView]

No, I made sure it was not in a structurally critical area and round holes don't have stress points. Good question.

[@irishone716]

Your airplane is still in one piece after you flew it. That's not how I do it. (Edit: I just spotted the Huey behind you in your shop. I knew you were an alright guy.)

[@robertbowes7054]

Nice plane, nice flying!

[@judeg.8101]

Cool build and review.

[@tadtires325]

GOOD WORK MY FRIEND

[@americanspirit8932]

Nice video I would suggest putting a little c a glue in the screw holes for the servos and any screws that go into would put a couple of drops of fast drying CA put the screw in type of Servo down then remove a screw with a couple of drops of c a glue in and then reinstall servos with the screws secondly I would use a. For fueling rather than have the fuel line hanging. Looks a lot more professional and completes the mod thirdly revenue's a chicken stick which can be quite dangerous I would use an electric starter but I personally use is a remote electric starter started building behind the engine very inexpensive and work extremely well you can also fly kill the engine in flight and restart it while you're flying people are impressed with that had that happen anyway other than that great video

[@crossthreadaeroindustries8554]

Great vid, nice bird.

[@guyguybohurst3304]

It’s too bad that H9 has discontinued this model.

[@DerredmaxTRIAX]

Nice maiden flight and kudos to you camera man. Great video!

[@RCCanuck]

Another great video

[@victorparks5378]

Excellent build and fly review.

[@timpaszkiewicz7169]

I've been wanting to get into flying modal planes. Ran across you channel. I love it.

[@michaelbrinkley9323]

Great video. Beautiful aircraft

[@broccolifan6971]

I like it how he built it to fly. I finally got to see how these hardcare hobby pilots build and fly these giant RC planes.

[@1bizjets]

Great first flight. Still those first flights always nerve wrecking.

[@NotThatBob]

Very nice. Thanks for the video.

[@marksilva2008]

very very good !!!

[@podifue]

Thanks for the review, well done!

[@blablametalhead]

Kick @zz guys......love it......the first flights are make or break......gotta love it when she comes home ok

[@michaeltait2276]

Did you have a cowl

[@xrbjgc]

Your P-47 flies great I really envy you. Just wondering if you still using your TTX850 tactic radio. If you are thinking about selling it please let me know before I buy a new radio. I really love 8 channel tactic radio....I'm still a beginner, Thanks

[@xrbjgc]

@@hanspeterx Thanks you sir

[@haydenlogston2164]

You need to take that P47 and give it Red Tail insignia. 15,562 sorties and only 25 bomber losses to fighters and ground fire, 95 Distinguished Service Crosses, 261 confirmed kills including 3 German 262 jets in one day. That earned the 332nd the Distinguished Unit Citation. My former boss Gordon Marshall owner of Marshall Electronics and Namesake to USC’s Marshall School of Business flew 86 missions as a pilot in a B-24s. He told me it was a great comfort to look out his window and see the red tails. He knew they would stay with the bombers and not chase fighters. And if Gordon Marshall said that he meant it. So paint the pilot brown get out the air brush and make a tribute plane. And before they got P-51s they flew the P-47s, P-39 Airacobras and B-25 Mitchells. Please make a tribute plane. Who wouldn’t want to fly a Red Tail tribute plane.

[@stevemadak6255]

No, U!

[@richardkim1822]

Great flying

[@GRMGR1]

Nicely done sir

[@nawazabdul-rasaqothman2583]

Aamazingf work, I must confess

[@bobuilt3199]

Very good video. Awesome job.

[@marceldesouza1842]

Nice video. Very informative. Thank you

[@markfrench8892]

Marvelous.

[@openairrpastraining4756]

Nice aircraft...would be worth adding some airbrush paint details to give it some character ! A future project perhaps?

[@MrJdsenior]

First flight a BIT nose heavy not such a bad idea. Better to work it tailward in increments, especially if you want it to be a BIT aft/twitchy for snappy aero, a little too much and it will get twitchy alright! Gyro, or are you really that smooth? "Bit a right trim, again...that's interesting" YEAH, In my experience far more interesting than you demonstrated here. I would ALWAYS bring a plane down and check over the controls if trim changed for "no" reason. Here you had a bit of one (cowling config change) but still, better safe than sorry...especially with the glue failure you experienced building it on the one elevator horn. Looks like a heap o' fun. "It survived Jeff's grubby hands"...and an LOL from Jeff. Watching your installation work, I can see why people have you finish these ARFs out for them. Using the chicken stick is a GREAT idea, if you've ever seen a hand that has come in contact with one of those props badly enough to stop it at high RPM, you would grossly underestimate the damage. It is BAD!

[@Tree_Dee]

I think there's a column of tigers coming just down the street that needs to be riddled

[@Loise5901]

merci pour ta video trop cool .et tres bon pilotage a +

[@bcflyer99]

I enjoy NPR in the morning and especially Engines of our ingenuity. I seem to recall one episode that you did. I am right?

[@HobbyView]

Yes, very good. In fact I've done several episodes.

[@paulkevinkoehler9490]

"Just don't crash the airplane that I built!" ... no pressure, eh?

[@almari222]

Nice job! Thank you.

[@Andingo86]

Your videos are great!!!

[@mrinalmaduganguly506]

Gear up?

[@davidpoling7748]

Awesome vid!

[@jackbarton6341]

Great Job 👌

[@dawirelessg]

right on!!

[@hb9hal]

Nice Video!

[@tiickl3941]

why you gotta flex on them so hard my guy haha

[@BOBO-qx2vg]

Thanks 👍👍👍

[@jonathanrubin3603]

Nice camera work

[@MatthewTaylor3]

Why did you balance the aircraft without the cowling attached?

[@1peanut]

i would think adding 12oz or 3/4 Lb of weight would greatly reduce this planes ability, agility and speed. also shorter flight times.
