Very impressive flying. I bought one five years ago and use it for F3A style flying. When they first came out everybody on the forums raved about its flight performance but complained of woeful flight times. I've flown gentle F3A with mine treating the throttle with care and barely get four minutes on a 3700mah. I have a Splendor and an Olympus, both only slightly bigger than this extra and they run on 6s.

[@fowler_steam]

It took me all of 6 minutes watching this to pause the video and order one of these bad boys 😂

[@TwoBrosRC]

Happy to hear it!

[@fowler_steam]

Can declare a few weeks on, its a lovely plane to fly

[@linksadventures1864]

Great flying as always. I’m learning 3d myself and love the 300. I think you’re spot on about the fear thing, and it’s something I’ve been trying to train myself on. I can do most of the maneuvers, but I have trouble doing them low and close, and I know it’s all in my head. I have found that practicing with a profile foamy in the yard helps a lot to get over the fear.

[@TwoBrosRC]

Once you push through the fear response and normalize it, you'll begin to explore new boundaries of your skills and can start pushing yourself to really improve.

[@lvincentg]

Good video! Appreciate the way you are showing the different aerobatics!

[@spud13x13]

This vid popped up in my feed tonight...I'm surprised it took this long. Back into the hobby over the last two years, after an abortive start nearly 30 years ago. Any way, saw the teaser shot (Hey, that's my current sweetheart but challenging plane...click!). I thought I might find help on how to fly her a little better. I did not expect to get a backdoor lesson on how to train my mind to live my life better. I'm looking forward, now more than usual, to the next time I get to run through a couple of batteries with her. And I thank you for that little push. But thank you even more for the thoughts you shared that transcend flying. You truly helped a person today.

[@TwoBrosRC]

So happy to hear that my man. Here's hoping you'll find Friday's 3D tutorial better than this one! ❤️

[@stfuliberal]

"I have been observing your progress over the past year, especially in your newer videos such as the inverted high Alpha F-22 flying. It's quite impressive! Personally, I find that I can fly this model well on the simulator, but it's a different story in the field."

[@todtalk3912]

I love how well you have progressed. I have 2 3d planes, I have 1.1m eflight Suhoi, that is very similar to this build, its a little heavy for sure and pretty narrow fuse. However, I took your encouraging words and used them to fly this little beast for the first time today, as a 3d plane. I got decent on the sim, but no sim is the same as real life, that's for sure.

[@TwoBrosRC]

It's all about practice and getting comfortable with being uncomfortable. You learn the most when you're not flying in your comfort zone. Keep at it!

[@waynemiller6070]

I had a few really nice flights with mine. But most of the time while trying to hover or harrier there was so much wing rock that it wasn't fun. I tried changing the ailerons to "harrier" flaps from your set up video but it still seems to act like a small plane trying to do big plane stuff (but not very well) I'll admit that most of my problem was probably my lack of skill, but ultimately I think bigger is better. I bought my friends 95" Extra 330-E 3DHS (built and never flown) for such an awesome price that I gave him my E-Flight extra. It's not like he actually wanted it, but he wasn't going to turn down a free plane. 😄 We'll fly them both as soon as we can get to the field on a nice day at the same time. I expect he'll be able to make it do things that I couldn't.

[@draj3214]

great advice @ 12:50. i like to think of as "become comfortable with being uncomfortable" you broke it down nicely though. great flying, brotha.

[@soakedp90s]

Nice tutorial. Love the stick view, that's how I learned a lot watching Joe Smith videos. Honestly as soon as you talked about the fear and nerve response...I just was talking to my dad about this. He doesn't understand how I can hover within feet of myself and not panic. You have to get over it and the only way is to do it. What was that Patrick Swayze quote in point break?... "hesitation creates fear". Going out tomorrow for the 3rd day out and a couple more packs. 5 flights total so far. Next week my Extreme Flight Extra 300 v1 should be back in operation. Didn't expect this plane to fly so well...excuse me, do 3d so well. Honestly, I wanted to hate it but it's turned out to be a bit of a gem.

[@TwoBrosRC]

It really is a great little model once you get it tuned so it doesn't wing rock as easily or become super unstable in hovers. Sometimes it won't enter a hover without a lot of throttle (you can see that toward the end as I'm struggling to get it out of knife edge harrier) but it generally flies really well overall. Glad to hear we're on the same page with regard to the fear response. You just have to push through it. If you don't, you won't improve - you'll always be stuck at the level you were when you backed off from overcoming that fear.

[@RCAV8T0R]

Good stuff Jon. Low n Slow is the way to go...👍Certain airframes need a higher AOA to be stable in post stall HA maneuvers & each model is different. Takes time & practice to find that sweet spot whether upright or inverted...

[@TwoBrosRC]

That and just getting over the anxiety of being in a weird flight configuration. Once that's mastered it becomes a lot easier to perform.

[@jperry0015]

Always be drifting 😂😂 that got me

[@winstonsmith7801]

Thanks for the tuition Jon, much appreciated. I just have to reconfigure in my head what stick movements you are using as I fly mode 1 , not mode 2 :)

[@TwoBrosRC]

Glad to help! The mode differences will be annoying to get through but it should at least help point you in the right direction.

[@FFE-js2zp]

Cool video, nice flying, nice plane. Its most interesting, to me, to watch different self training philosophies and mindsets. I’m not judging because everyone has their own approach and I used to take your approach of pushing myself. Now I have a zero crash policy, which includes flying the sim. Meaning, I always stay inside, and then expand my comfort zone only through proficiency leading to boredom. It is really more important with big aerobatic helicopters, because they are ridiculously lethal. I find that never crashing builds my skill set faster because I learn faster when “in the concentration zone.” Another thing to consider is that crashing is a sort of maneuver, so the more we practice the better we get at it. It’s cheaper to treat crashing like dying, too, but that’s secondary. So my basic learning method is practice a skill to the comfort zone and bored level, before building-blocking those skills together. If that takes a year, fine. I taught myself to fly aerobatic 800 size helis that way. I have never crashed my 10 or so helis from my first attempted hover to full aerobatics today. It took me a year just to exit a tail oriented hover and landing on various coins. I think this 100% deliberate attitude serves me well. But I also fly full scale, so I don’t want to confuse mindsets.

[@TwoBrosRC]

I used to have a zero crash policy, but then ended up never really pushing myself because I kept aborting maneuvers before I got to the point where I was learning from a mistake. I can absolutely see why you'd have that mentality with a helicopter. The risks of a model airplane are significantly less dangerous.

[@FFE-js2zp]

@@TwoBrosRC It all depends what brings you satisfaction, so I actually disagree with “teaching” maneuver focused flying. To me, the goal is routine focused. How closely did my entire flight match my plan from takeoff to landing? The exact number of touch and goes at the end might not be critical. Alan Watts pointed out that God or beauty or whatever is usually depicted as a blinding light in the heavens, but if we come to appreciate the unlikely miracle of our lives, the vision of a paper cup shines with the light of a thousand suns. So, at least to me, purposeful straight and level flight, or touching down on this penny, or executing an entire game plan without the plane ever flying me, really does “shine with the light of a thousand suns.” Maybe it’s a personality flaw? Maybe I’m a control freak.

[@seanmolloy9422]

good show. clean video. clear audio and narration. not much tutoring going on here. good pep talk

The tutoring comes from watching the stick movements. I'll try to make it more coherent in the future. Thanks!

Never seen this channel. I learned most of my stuff from another well known guys rc group channel and KZbin channel.

[@x-ray_man3359]

Thanks for showing the sticks. It really helps. How much expo in your D/R are you using? Great video btw!👍🏼

[@TwoBrosRC]

70% with 150% rates.

[@FFE-js2zp]

With any symmetrical main airfoil, the inverted harrier should be more stable than upright because the tail-rudder is dipped in smooth water.

[@TwoBrosRC]

By smooth water I'm sure you mean that the vertical stabilizer is in the prop wash and airflow which should help keep it flying stable and reduce wing rock. ;)

[@FFE-js2zp]

@@TwoBrosRC I just mean the vertical stab and rudder sticks down into virgin air. When upright at high AOA the rudder is in turbulent air.

[@TwoBrosRC]

Same idea, different words. Got ya.

Jon do you own any high end 3D airplanes like Extreme Flight models? I tried 3D on this Eflite model and it was a constant struggle. A friend turned me on to full blown 3D machines and immediately I got it. This 300 is a fun fast big air machine but I disagree that it’s a good 3D machine.

It's perfectly capable as a 3D aircraft if you've tuned it and put in some work. For $300 you can't really beat its performance. I don't have any balsa models right now, but I do have plans to pick up a PA Katana 52 in the future.

[@Arm_Chair_Engineers]

@@TwoBrosRC I thought you mentioned them but maybe I just imagined 🤨

[@tabdycollins]

I njoyed watching that but I'm not sure it's fair to call it a tutorial it was more a demo of what you can do. Michael Wargo does some very good tutorials but they all seem to be on hovering and harrier. I'm sure you will have watched them. I would like you to pick a manoeuvre, demonstrate slowly in your hand showing what one is trying to achieve, couple that with stick positions then show us how your trained to do it and finally do it whilst showing the stick movements. Explain the likely mistakes. You could do a short series covering tumbles and I can't now recall the names of some of the other manoeuvres. You can also do it for hovering and harrier explaining the areas you found difficult and how you overcame them. Finally, you could probably do a short 'teaser' then a full one but restricted to Patreons only! Might increase your Patreons?

[@TwoBrosRC]

Hey Tommy, thanks for the feedback. You're right in a sense - this did start out with talking through the maneuvers and turned quickly into "learn how to master inverted harrier". I maintain that having the stick camera up helps my claim that it's a tutorial of sorts - I mean, how often do you see Michael Wargo showing his stick camera during any of his 3D tutorials? He's obviously incredibly skilled, and I think it would be way more useful to show the camera than it would be to just talk people through the maneuvers. Seeing the stick movements is another level entirely - being told how to do them is helpful but doesn't really convey the actual work required to match up what you see vs what you end up getting. I'll keep what you said in mind going forward. This definitely won't be the last time I do something like this.

[@tabdycollins]

@@TwoBrosRC I understand your thoughts but I find it difficult to watch both finger movements and the aircraft. You tend to wiggle your sticks very fast. Probably a habit from gaming???? - about which I know nothing. I just know I never wiggle my sticks like that but I come from a ba kground of flying real aircraft where overcontrolling is not good - even though it might be effective. I can hover my helicopter really accurately by moving the stick to full deflections in all directions - legs need to be wide apart. Equally I can hover with stick clutched between my knees - so I can fils a map. Or by no visible movement with a hand. In the first case watching the behaviour of the rotor disk is a weee bit frightening!

1:30 Wait wait wait! Why are both aileron up together with the elevator?!

[@TwoBrosRC]

Pretty sure we mentioned why. It's a mix that causes the model to stabilize in harrier.

[@WernerBeroux]

@@TwoBrosRC Thanks, now that you mention it I hear it briefly in the video at 1:20. I tried looking for a video of yours detailing these modes but didn't find it. I would be interested to know about them. It actually blew my mind. I guess it reduces a bit the lift (or wing drag in Harrier).

Need to see camera man fly again with 3D plane.

[@TwoBrosRC]

Tony doesn't know how to fly 3D. It's a skill he'll possibly pick up in the future.

[@jriley-tv1on]

@@TwoBrosRC Oh I see. We definitely see your 3D or aerobatic tendencies when you fly the jets. Great flying and content, keep it up!

[@olivierlambinet7584]

a lot of manoeuvers are not in the video : rolling harier, knife edge spin, pop top,...

[@TwoBrosRC]

Things to cover in a future upload. I've posted about them before, though, so feel free to look back through my channel. :)

What's up with driving gloves!!! rofl

[@TwoBrosRC]

Bicycle gloves. They keep my hands from slipping off the transmitter so I don't drop it on the pavement and break $2,000 worth of equipment and lose control of the model.

Rc 'tutorials' are like guitar lessons.. 99% showboating and 1% educational. I will keep looking for a real tutorial.

We're so sorry we didn't live up to your expectations with our free content. No, stop. Don't go.

[@cooperbrown4510]

Where is your CG? I've learned the recommended CG is much more for sport flying than it is 3D.

[@TwoBrosRC]

Around the front of the cockpit.

[@scu-dub]

Needs some leds and people would freak out

[@TwoBrosRC]

Nah, that just adds weight.

[@2007CHANCHO]

Looks kinda heavy

[@TwoBrosRC]

It isn't the lightest.

[@MattiRc_Aviation]

Wich battery do you use with this plane? Thanks for this beautiful video🫡. I ask you because i tried to use a 2300 40c and the plane was tail heavy as hell but that wasn't a spektrum smart battery. Now i use 3300 30c battery and it flies perfectly and it is balanced but it is a little bit heavy. What batteries do you recommend

[@TwoBrosRC]

4s 2200 packs shoved all the way forward is how we flew ours.

[@MattiRc_Aviation]

Thanks😊
