As someone who grew up in the 70's, this is a great time to be in the r/c plane hobby.

wish i could buy one, they look like fun

[@jamesmorris7581]

You're a really beneficial web video; could not make it without ya!

[@robertwren2289]

Back in 2014 I told HH they should add Safe to all their planes, and now look. I still want them to bring back the Mosquito with Safe technology. Maybe you can ask them.

[@robertkbrooks951]

Ahoy Guys. Capt Morgan. i sent the comment to add wingtip floats to turn it into a Republic SeaBee. Just ordered mine and looking forward to flying it. Merry X-mas. To all of you there at Horizon .

Thank you for helping me bind my new Arrow Scott

[@TheTechBuyersGuru]

Sure thing. Enjoy your new plane!

[@fishysoda]

No aerosout lol

[@fishalcoholic]

Thanks for this helpful video. I was holding my breath though...I would have definitely knocked the radio off the bench :)

[@TheTechBuyersGuru]

LOL, yeah, that was in a bad spot! Don't miss the maiden flight of this plane! - kzbin.info/www/bejne/rKfaZIl5Z9uhkMU

[@Bellairvideo]

Well presented with great info. I have just ordered the RETF. I have many aircraft, mainly E-Flite but the value is in the battery & portable charger. I will sell the radio allowing me to get the smart battery & Field charger virtually for free. In Australia A$380 ($275 US) for RTF

[@thelongestday64]

Great Video thanks, helped me bind the plane...

[@TheTechBuyersGuru]

Happy to hear it - yeah, binding can be a little hard to figure out!

[@thelongestday64]

@@TheTechBuyersGuru Particularly since every plane seems to be different... Sport Cub S2 I could bind directly without doing anything special, Apprentice: you need to push a button on the receiver, AeroScout: you need to connect the bind plug to the bind cable... in an easy glider I installed another spectrum receiver and there you push a button on top of that receiver... 4 models, 4 ways of binding the plane... stupid really.

[@kenmunn4421]

You just about lost that radio to the floor.... good video, great job.

[@marting5130]

did you program the plane parameters into the transmitter manually, or do you do download it to the tx with with a usb cable or something?

[@tonysaltikov6012]

You should include how to set up the three flight modes on the DX6. How to assign the correct switch. The manual tells how to do it, but how do you check that is working correctly.

[@1peanut]

I just got a aeroscout s1 and in beginner mode i have full rudder throw. in intermediate i have half rudder throw. Is this correct ?

[@sidney4542]

Hi. Great video. Ive had plenty of experience in r/c cars. Electric, nitro. But I've been out of the hobby for awhile. Wat would b n inexpensive remote to get for this plane n I'd like for it to b potentially future proof. Thank u

[@TheTechBuyersGuru]

Hey Sidney, glad you liked the video. The best low-cost 6-channel radio for this plane is the Spektrum DXE. The great thing about this particular plane is that Horizon Hobby sells it as a Ready-to-Fly kit with the DXE radio, 3S battery, and charger. Here's the link to the combo kit: amzn.to/2KuWj3Q. The DXE radio alone sells for $70 and the battery is $30, but the whole combo kit only costs an extra $50, so it's a huge discount. And you can actually use the radio with other planes as you build your collection.

[@regs3836]

Video is a mix of good info and what?

[@boatrvme8478]

You skipped hard part of putting battery in where it's not hitting or binding on battery leads and or battery???

[@rcpete7055]

Do the servo wire colour have to align you did not say/show? Makes people think they can plug in anyway will be good??

[@TheTechBuyersGuru]

Of course, like any servo, it has to be connected correctly. Dark-to-dark leads and light-to-light leads. In my model, that meant brown to black and yellow to white. Unfortunately, the RC industry uses multiple standards for power leads, which is a big problem, but the basic rule I state above holds true.

[@rcpete7055]

@@TheTechBuyersGuru thankyou I figured it out in the end but the manual did not explain and for a beginner it is confusing?

[@boatrvme8478]

@@TheTechBuyersGuru nope mine were red yellow black...very confusing...no light to light or dark to dark.

hello bro i have one qestion i buy this model(RTF) and in my first fly him i MUST check range test? pls help me thank you:)

[@thelongestday64]

YES!

[@EJ-74]

Could this safely run on 4s ??? I'm seriously thinking of buying this for my first plane in 20yrs lol so yeah I'm a bit rusty so I think I should start with a plane like this one with beginer mode to get back in the air and hopefully land in one piece lol Great review 👍✌️

[@TheTechBuyersGuru]

This is a great trainer, but it is not a stunt plane, and I don't think 4S is a good idea for it. It would fit, but it may throw off the balance. More importantly, however, the flight characteristics are not that aggressive, so if you're going for speed, it's not the right pick.

[@EJ-74]

@@TheTechBuyersGuru Thanks for the info I just ordered it From all the research I've done it seemas like a great plane to get back into flying again and is pretty dang good for tricks I'll drop a link of a guy flying the crap out of it lol It's pretty dang awesome kzbin.info/www/bejne/m3mkZWyHmsh5iJI Check this out The AeroScout is very capable of cool stunts

[@boatrvme8478]

@@TheTechBuyersGuru the battery supplied is to long...if I set it back servo wires hit battery if I move it up cockpit cover won't fit???

[@greglewis20]

Is this for a beginner , in your option?

[@TheTechBuyersGuru]

Absolutely. It's really easy to fly, and due to the prop being in the back, minor crashes won't damage it. I actually find it easier to fly than much smaller UMX planes. Just one thing to note: it does require a pretty long runway to take off, as the lift is not great due to the pusher design. The brand-new v2 was just released with updated electronics, and you can get it in a bind-n-fly version here for $150: amzn.to/32P92a2 Or with the entire setup (transmitter, battery, and charger) here for $205: amzn.to/3t0H1qy The bundle is truly an amazing deal, as the transmitter alone costs $100. If you don't already have gear, that is the way to go.

[@robertfpv7733]

2:41 the screw drive included is too small to install the front landing gear. I bought the plane so I know

[@dawood9390]

"The valient has a much bigger wingspan".... me: it's like 2 inches??

[@TheTechBuyersGuru]

It's 10".

[@daviddavids2884]

some info. at 1:57, you forgot to thank hz/hh for Not Using a Correct thrust Angle/line on this model. the thrust Line is Supposed to INTERSECT the model's c-m; center of mass. the c-m is Supposed to be located, Below twenty-five percent of chord. googletranslate static.rcgroups.net/forums/attachments/2/9/6/3/9/7/a5988257-224-bixler%202%20motor%20angle%20correction.jpg

[@TheTechBuyersGuru]

So you're saying in a pusher design, the prop has to be mounted at an angle? What's the upshot? Instability or loss of power?

[@daviddavids2884]

@@TheTechBuyersGuru the issue is, the use of an OFFSET thrust LINE. without the use of angular CORRECTION of an Offset thrust Line, ANY TIME throttle/thrust is Increased, a NOSE-DOWN moment will be produced. in other words, the nose will be, noticeably, PUSHED DOWN. years ago, some models were made CORRECTLY. then, manuf started making them WRONG. in such a situation, elevator inputs Will be necessary, in order to maintain a correct flight attitude. this nose-down moment will, however, ALWAYS be there. if a conventional airframe, such as a cessna 172, is considered, the thrust line Intersects the airframe's Center of Mass. in other words, the c-m is LOCATED ON THE THRUST LINE. achieving a Correct c-m location is a Matter of Correct DESIGN. see linked illustration, in which the IDEAL location of c-m is indicated. cheers s3.amazonaws.com/assets.flitetest.com/article_images/medium/truecg-jpg_1384168691.jpg

[@joshrandall3632]

@@daviddavids2884 You can thank HZ/HH for COMPENSATING for that issue by using an ELEVATOR with an INVERTED (upside down) airfoil. No nose down MOMENT, no elevator INPUT needed. Did you fail out of ENGINEER school or are you just to DENSE to research that? There are literally DOZENS of videos of people flying this EXACT plane with no MENTION of what you described. Cheers.
