[@davidxiao64]

Big thanks to Quique for buddy boxing during Flite Fest! He was generous enough to squeeze in Don Szczur and me as the last pilots to fly his Cessna, and I've definitely heard amazing things about the Mamba 10 and the QQ Extra 300! Planning to get one of them soon!

[@JeffinTD]

Sweet knife edge loop. Their 70cc Mamba looks really nice.

[@LauwersFreddy]

Can we pause for a second and appreciate the great flying by the chase quad in all these FliteTest video's? Alex, I presume, is doing a great job as always trying to keep everything in shot! Love the video's.

[@damonbfpv]

Freddy Lauwers yeah alex has turned into one hell of a pilot

[@AlexJoneses]

Freddy Lauwers yah I think alex is the person all drone flyers look up to when learning to film, i know I do!

[@RealPigeon]

That Cathedral Guy they laugh out loud up to Alex? Strange...

[@JordanBulthuis]

Pigeon he meant look

[@FliteTest]

+Freddy Lauwers this comment is so awesome and makes me so happy. Because I actually flew chase for this one! :) Alex is a master of the chase quad and I strive to be like him 😊. -TJ

[@rl2109]

Great flying! Once again, I saw tha quad running circles around the Mamba! Good job by everyone involved! Thanks for posting!

[@DeucesWildRC]

Awesome video! Having Quique as your guru! Doesn't get any better than that, nice job Michael!

[@bigwaddle1559]

I really appreciate these videos personally I enjoy RC things but I usually used boats but this channel got me into flying and now I fly a micro P-51D mustang. Your vids are awesome

[@derMusicSlasher]

It's great to see different generations of people having fun together! It really seems like the plane is top-notch. Really like 3d planes!

[@greatquotestoliveby]

My friend and I met QQ at Joe Nall this year. Couldn't ask for a nicer guy. He took some pictures with us and it blew me away, the amazing level of passion the guy showed as he answered the questions that we asked him. He is a real leader and pioneer in the hobby and we are very lucky to have him. By the way, if you haven't seen the Flex Innovations Cessna 170, you gotta check it out! It's awesome!

[@wildgoobsid5]

QUiqui is the best! I’ve just started flying with an Aura 8 and it is great! I’m ordering the Mamba as soon as it comes in!!!!! 40+ yrs here too and more excited than ever!

[@purrosleukos253]

You guys and girls deserve all the success in the world. It's a pleasure to see how Flite Test has grown and all the great work you do and the pleasure you bring to the Rc community, for us as enthusiasts and the exposure for companies to show us their cool stuff. Great work and thank you.

[@anonuzer3394]

Thanks Quique and Josh, this is a great video... but I +1 the kudos to the quad pilot, Flite Test has some awesome quad video coverage and it always amazes me how skilled they are. All of you keep up the great work, Team Flite Test kicks butt

[@mesoltaso]

Hey Flite Test You are my inspiration on hobby I love You

[@JeffinLowerAlabama]

Fantastic I have the Mamba 10 and the QQ Extra 300 love them both but since I picked up the Mamba the 300 is getting a little dusty. Quique's team is fantastic, I like the no compromise approach to designing his planes. Great video and Thank you, Jeff

[@Shauncat1]

Awesome indeed, I'm looking at getting this model in the near future soon

[@huckaberryfpv4986]

Just so you know I fly quads,and when I seen your guys flight with planes...am now a proud owner of two planes and a whole other experience of flying,so long story short thank you:)

[@GilbertTang]

I had the honor of talking to QQ during one of the early public rollouts of the Mamba at AMA Expo West (see my tiny channel for the video, no need to like, no need to subscribe) and I own the plane today. It's an amazing aircraft designed by an amazing team led by an amazing person. The best part about QQ and company getting together to start Flex Innovations is how accessible they are and how enthusiastic they remain about growing the hobby. It means so much to me. Flex and Flite Test are a match made in heaven.

[@GeneralHobbies]

that is interesting. i just started learning to fly 3d. this looks like a good biplane to try.

[@seaskimmer]

Quique you are a flying god !

[@mesoltaso]

Make a tutorial, i wanna know how to this great biplane

[@misterkenova6695]

How would I bind this to my DX6 ? What are the steps vs a normal bind and fly? Great video as usual!

[@scottpizzo5560]

Thank you flite test I just bought my first plane after working on rc cars and I look forward to building your planes, and going through many props and hot glue sticks!

[@trex500GBEDITION]

Quique Somenzini is the 2007 F3A Precision Aerobatics World champion, Amazing guy!

[@WideEyesChannel]

Wow... That was good flying.

[@liamcoddington5712]

I love 3d, it never gets old unlike sport flying

[@Brian_Christensen07RC]

This guy was 3D’ing before it was cool! One great pilot. Nice job Flite test!

[@ericaroberts1078]

i love this plane!

[@noahuser8566]

Very cool 3D Plane 👍🏽✈️

[@RCHeliJet]

Thumb up. Wish a nice Weekend.

[@samwilliams4176]

Do you guys think you could make the spruce goose to scale and see if it really can fly?

[@goriverman]

You said the taranis will work with the mamba10. Do I have to use a module and what receiver could I use with it

[@gaptoofgranny]

Quique helped me out in getting an aura8 to me. I'd like to thank him for that one day.

[@mohammadqureshi5272]

do a review of the hubsan h501s and the advanced version

[@jsking306]

Your photo drone pilot is amazing. I wouldn't want him/her on my tail in air combat!

[@benjaminmclain1091]

could you guys make a video about the long-ez

[@wildgoobsid5]

I think people new to 3D and RC don’t know that QUiqui is the father of all 3D flying, he basically invented it ( I remember, I was there) an incredible aircraft designer, RC icon and all around nice guy! You’re luck to work with him on this.

[@dra93n]

So want that biplane!

[@bradvincent9487]

I love the son's t-shirt.

[@avelkm]

More 3D flying, please, FlitTest! Lessons on 3D!!!

[@thesoundtree]

what receiver does it come with?

[@Shauncat1]

Too awesome,I just purchased my mama 10 three weeks ago,just waiting for good weather to maiden it

[@EJ-74]

You purchased a mama LOL Didnt know ya could buy a mama LMBO Picking The Mamba is awsemo Do you still have it in one peace ? 😁 I'll check and see if ya have any vids of ya flying it ✌️

[@ImaginationASMR]

A flying saucer like plain flat like a pancake the flies exactly like a plane I like watching you shows After war 2 they made this plane I think today they got new versions of it You could also do the flying triangle to Thanks keep up the good work

[@RANDOM24h]

Is there a gyro build in?

[@EJ-74]

AWESOME Flying guy's and WoW what a AWESOME plane This is by far my favorite RC plane channel I've learned so much I'm building my first plane right now I've just gotta get up the funds to buy the electronics I can't wait to get in the air again It's been 15yrs since I've flown so it will be a absolute thrill Could ya drope a link for all the elctronics I'm going to need to get in the air I'm building a 4ft wing span trainer id like to have 3s and 4s capabilities so I have plenty of power to get myself out of trouble if needed surely im going to need it LOL 😁 Agian great flying great plane great channel ✌️

[@hadjnabil4811]

thank you gys

[@its_arvinsingh]

Can we get foam plans for Andreas 's x-29 that thing is a work of art

[@FliteTest]

Working on it :)

[@its_arvinsingh]

I can't thank u guys enough!!! 😍😍

[@slothFPV]

man needs to make himself a 3d plane now.

[@brechen2002]

shoudln't he be using a QQ dx18?

[@adcdsasa6526]

fantastic flay ;-) i love't

[@bumpstaggers4177]

Great airplane.

[@felixbaum8961]

lol, that plane @ 4:50 !

[@milesprower6456]

Maybe you guys should build an aircraft carrier like that avengers helicarrier you guys built back in 2015 do take note that u have to maybe make big props so that u could balance out the weight of the aircraftcarrier

[@dumpsmokes4388]

Not happy with this!! When will these come to the uk??

[@prototypehangar8447]

I never got to fly the 172. I was in line about 3 times, each time ended in I'm next, and "we are out of battery. Try next time at..."

[@rawdloc4659]

Stupid question, but can any full size plane hover like that?

[@sierra_bravo6388]

Raw Dloc Some can hover for a few seconds but I don't know of any that can hover like a rc model. From my understanding the power to weight ratio on full scales just isn't there.

[@fynnjackson8416]

In one of xjets vlogs he said he was trying to have an event at his Air field I think you should help him because it would be very fun for us Aussies and kiwis

[@thecasualbrit7487]

Wouldn't normally agree with advertising stuff on another video, but Bruce does seem to have a good idea with the whole proposition of a FF Down Under!

[@fynnjackson8416]

The Casual Brit me neither but he needs a little support as the government is going against him

[@turtlesthatfly5695]

Fynn Jackson ...or as he says. He just hates the administration, but they probably don't know him anyways

[@JohnDoe-rw7cn]

flitetest, what do you use for your runway mat? please respond it would be really helpful thank you!

[@waytooslow]

same question. Please let us know

[@FliteTest]

It's made by a company called US Fabrics. If you give them a call and describe what you want, they can give you options and pricing. :)

[@AllenSchmidtSr]

FliteTest Can we get another runway next year for the right half of the flight line?

[@dragonclaw88]

WOW SWEET PLANE

[@RCmies]

I always wanted a bi-plane.. never got around buying one

[@Chumbuucket]

That's totally the rockstar...

[@potjnkye86]

Alex must be an amazing fpv pilot to get somewhat smooth shots with a racing style quad.

[@FliteTest]

+Nitro Revolution RC I love watching Alex when he flies. Anyone can fly within 5ft of an airplane. It takes true skill to really get up in close with them like he does. -TJ

[@yota4x405]

In this Josh asked Quique if it was 4s capable and his response was yes... did he misspeak? All the documents say 3s max but I’d love to see what it would do on 4s!!!!

[@cliffordpayne7385]

How much is this

[@tibou5871]

Was able a french subtitles To me? I am french

[@ZZX076]

What is your runway' made of?

[@Krommandant]

Geotextile.Black.

[@jtbvideos]

Nice

[@coltenstinnett6798]

Flitebest!!!

[@aerodroneaguaslindas2593]

2:12 esse cara é bom

[@jkobayashi]

Looks like the E-Flite viking

[@goldendive0078]

More Paramotor vids plz! I'm working my butt off to earn around $10000 right now because of tucker gott and you guys!

[@pyar3902]

What happened to the other Josh?

[@mishal321]

I need ONE ROGHT NOW I'M FREAKING OUT

[@patricktoris1908]

il fonctionne bien ce zing

[@b_mb4948]

Josh's son is a better 3D pilot then he is, and yet Josh is wearing the Aviators xD

[@LowLightVideos]

Foam Power 🍺

[@rccrazy7495]

Ok ok nice job ..Now read this.. Now I Have to Buy One Gee Thanks guys... Lol. Awesome plane I Thought you had to be a pro to fly like that Wow. AND the drone work was sick what type of drone so you chase with. I have 20 plus planes+ drones that looks like way to much fun. How much and where do I send the money. Lmao.! Copy over. Roger Roger. You have A Vector Vickter. Ready to depart.

[@mylesspear]

Man I miss flite fest already...

[@RealPigeon]

I'm not going to lie at first glance I thought the shark teeth on the front of the wings were to cut streamers on the ground.

[@noahmcelwey2598]

This looks like an amazing plane, but I think $310 is a bit steep for it

[@tonyrebel63]

That is quite reasonable actually

[@its_arvinsingh]

Soon there would be a plane that delivers in 3d style hover😭😭😭

[@trevorpotts9671]

Kee ka got money dx18 2000 bucks right there

[@gilligan8795]

Make an onithopter

[@Stevenowski]

Shortest landing strip I've ever seen! (2:09-2:10) 😉😅

[@allant9432]

I do like the mamba

[@jacksalcedo2699]

Did anyone else see that guy filming in the background?

[@unstable_fox]

every one was bro, everyone was.

[@waveyyygamer7648]

Shame. Wish the mamba and this were in the uk or I would buy them

[@techdiyer5290]

can you guys make plans for the mamba? and make a build video plz??!!!

[@rcflier532]

They are very good plans , they fly very well, but they have very crapy electronics, two of my mambas caught on fire in the air, and my new mamba 60 have burn two motors.

[@natenenneker4579]

Make a flying lawnmower

[@keegansponholz9260]

Yay, 13th

[@rafilevent582]

Can you fly a ST MODEL Acrobat?

[@JumpeFurby]

I always wonderd.. are humans the limiting factor at doing this with full sized planes xD?

[@kimchikoalaa714]

Damn, when Flite Test got to interview the legend!

[@mircoheitmann]

OMG IM SO EARLY I FEEL SO SPECIAL jk i'm just glad there's a new video and sorry but it's really sad that people feel special about such things >.

[@calebsherman886]

Ryz 3D Sad? Why...

[@ImaginationASMR]

I got an idea for you to test flight something Call the flying pancake

[@user-we3ph7sl2b]

First

[@czflyer3947]

Quique's da man, but the Mamba is a tad pricey for it's size. Did anyone else notice the floppy spindly landing gear?

[@goatstatus7415]

59 view

[@stevenadeau3807]

Great plane, but I agree with others that it is too expensive. I would love to add something like this to my hangar, but they're scalping people at that price point, especially considering you still have to add your own receiver on top of the $310 they are charging. Honestly, I would have expected more out of FliteTest, who I have come to respect a great deal. I'm disappointed that they are pushing such an overpriced plane.
