New Pilot! New Plane! My First Time Flying!

#rcplanes #rccars #rc
This video is my very first flights with my new Carbon Cub S2. I know some will find this video boring, but I love it. I love learning to fly and I had such an amazing time making this video. I hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed making it.

One phrase that helped me more than anything... when the plane is facing you push the stick to the low wing.

[@richard1472]

I've heard of this method before. I've never used it, nor do I recommend it. You have to train yourself to not think of your left or your right, but the airplanes left and the airplanes right. Once you do that, it becomes second nature. Happy landings!

[@michaelyoung4550]

@@richard1472 it becomes second nature either way. It’s just an easy little trick to help in the beginning

[@vracan]

@@michaelyoung4550 best trick is to visualize you are inside the cockpit!

[@jimbob8973]

What does it mean?..

[@stryker0ae]

​@@jimbob8973if the plane is tilting to one side or the other, pushing the stick toward the wing that is dipping will level it out.

This video made my day. I won't ever forget your reaction after landing it the first time. I haven't seen pure joy in a while and you definitely felt it. Thanks for the video.

[@SnotrocketLT4]

Yep. That is the best feeling ever. This vid brought me right back to my first RC flight about 30 years ago. The pure joy and excitement, and relief of getting that thing back to Earth in one piece after the total stress of the flight. I was jumping up and down in excitement. My next 10 flights weren’t as successful though. This was back in the day before “safe” technology to help you, and it was a gas powered plane of course. My first plane was a Sturdy Bird which was (almost) indestructible even though I managed to destroy a couple of them. I’m still flying all there years later. What a feeling, and it made me so proud and excited for him. What a day!!!!!

[@ItAintMeBabe99]

It was great to hear your buddy say something that my instructor said to me, many years ago. I asked him how high should I fly and he said “Three Mistakes High”. I’ll never forget that.

[@garywest9062]

This guy shows the excitement. Every guy gets when he's flying a plane. Good job.

[@johncrumpley8702]

Great job!!! Kudos as well to your instructor. My first flight was fifty years ago with a Galloping Ghost radio. I'll never forget it even though there have been thousands of flights since. You made a memory that will last a lifetime and entertained us as well. Thanks!!!

[@dreadedjay1323]

That landing says everything lol, your instructor knows what he's doing!

[@jeffreybentz7097]

Excellent 1st time flying, WAY better than mine !!! I haven't attempted the 2nd flight since the 30 ft up retrieval, from the tree. LOL Way to go brother, keep practicing 👍👍

[@outsourcedrc]

Thanks! You can do it! Just go get some practice in.

[@boomercarter4455]

Great video. Good to see someone so genuinely overcome with joy. I'm lookin to get my first one too and this is the best video I've seen as someone trying to learn also and I've watched many. Believe I'm going to buy same model and if I can fly my 1st like yours i believe I'll have same reaction. Hope you keep enjoying and progressing

[@DickyGreenleaf1978]

Great to see the joy of a child on Christmas morning in an adult male! I need to get one of these!

[@jonthomas8487]

With any hobby having a good mentor or club with a lot of help is so important. I’m also into astronomy and without my local club and people to help me along the way my frustration would have me running away from the hobby

[@nicolassmith4371]

The joy in your first landing is incredible, ty a lot to reminde me my first flight at 11 years old with my popa

[@whydoweHistory]

Nice to see feedback on this from someone at my skill level.

[@trolltv3722]

12:10 and that feeling right there is why i started selling off all my rc cars.

[@ronlapham5508]

Nice to see a beginner demonstrating a new plane instead of pro flyers. Gives a good perspective and the excitement of learning to fly.

[@MrJtaylor350z]

I'm looking at getting into the hobby and seeing your excitement in the video has made me more excited about the hobby

[@simonhampton1304]

That was great flying and loved the level of excitement you had,I'm just getting interested in RC planes and currently building a cardboard plane.hopefully get built soon enough to then try and find a place near me to fly it.

[@RCAddix]

Your joyous laughter was genuine and put a smile on my face. Very cool.

[@mikeylikesrc]

Great maiden!!!! Yes - the joy in your laughs after your first flight is priceless. Good job! Great instructor - nice and calming instructions. Welcome to the hobby! -mikey

[@vincestapleton703]

[@outsourcedrc]

lol right?

[@andrewa7604]

Well done on your first flight. I'm yet to do that but my plane is ready to go. Just need a good day.

[@tboystoys5682]

It seems like you started flying around the same time I did. The difference between us is you had someone teaching you like I wish i could find someone to reach me. I go weeks without flying because I don’t trust my skills enough to fly in any wind. There are no flying fields close to me or clubs so I still make a lot of mistakes. I have about 10 planes and with about6 of them have never been maidened because I don’t want to crash them I have some nice 800 mm warbirds from FMS and the never been flown because I don’t have a place to takeoff from. Good luck 👍👍👍🇨🇦🇨🇦

[@robertcovell2787]

I know I'm late to this party but wow our hobby has come a long way. When I learned to fly we had to build our own plane from wood. There was no "safe" or gyro or electric power. My first trainer was Goldberg Falcon 56 on 3 channel with a Veco .29 engine. I still have that old Falcon. Don't fly it any more but I still use the engine and still having more fun than a 75 year old deserves.

[@outsourcedrc]

Right? This plane even has something you can install so it will land itself

[@karlos543]

[@pitbullrcltd6252]

And it works well ...👍😎

[@mfkhometheater7742]

I've got one of those little Carbon Cub's, it's a nice fun easy to fly little plane. Based on how you are doing as a first timer I assume you spent some time on the Real Flight simulator. That's definitely a good way to start. Back when I started flying RC in the mid 1970's, we didn't have simulators. In those days it wasn't a matter of how long does it take to fly but rather a matter of how many airplanes.

[@trpugh9748]

Damn all with this guy to teach me to fly he's patient and he's calling voice about everything he doesn't get excited about anyting you got a good instructor dude God was teaching me to fly about laid out he was all nervous and he was more nervous and I was but then again I was flying it's $2,000

[@michaelmacisco2566]

Noce !! You got your wings

[@Art-zs6sl]

Great day, at a great place. Was hoping for an XMAXX speed run in that field though!

[@robertwren2289]

I have that same plane, but with the GPS. When they first came out, you could get them RTF with the GPS already installed. One of the biggest issues with new pilots is they get too far away. You proved that with Safe on, you can teach someone to fly. I learned with the Delta Ray using Safe technology. Good job buddy. Just know, if you take it out of Safe before you get the hang of it, you will crash it. It's a much different animal out of Safe. You did a Great job for your first flight.

[@outsourcedrc]

Thanks. I had it out of safe for a bit. I'll practice and I'll get better.

[@caseman247]

D-Bag? LOL I love your excitement is all your videos. Thanks!

[@vincestapleton703]

The Carbon Cub S-2 rocks! I have one too and I love it! You got a very good airplane. Very nice gentle flying characteristics and forgiving. Have fun!

[@juankaramirez]

Hi @vincestapleton703 I'm new to the hobby, with a Carbon Cub S2 as well, what mode (Beginner, Int, Adv) do you use when landing? when landing in Beg or Int my plane would not nose down unless I apply throttle, are you experiencing this? thanks

[@vincestapleton703]

@@juankaramirez Hi, nice to hear from you! I always use advanced mode for landing, that way, if things don’t look right, I’ve got plenty of control if for any reason I need to go around. I use full Flaps for some landings and the airplane goes into beginner mode (which I really dislike). As soon as I touch down, I retract the flaps and advanced mode comes back but it takes about 5 seconds for full maneuvering to return. Full flaps really slows the airplane down and sometimes I use full down elevator or the thing just floats and floats, doesn’t want to come down! Do you have a flight simulator?

[@juankaramirez]

@vincestapleton703 Thanks for your reply! Makes sense. it seems like final and landing needs to be done in advance mode. I don't have a simulator, I'm getting training and help at my local rc park, and the instructor had the same issues with beginner and intermediate mode. Thank you, and happy flying.

[@dylanwhite6539]

Picked up a aero scout 1.1 about a month ago to train myself with. So far it’s been epic I’m just working on getting out of the stabilizer mode

[@outsourcedrc]

I saw that at the hobby shop. I wanted a bush plane. I'm going to put flaps on this one and practice with it.

[@dylanwhite6539]

@@outsourcedrc seems awesome. I’ll probably work on flying in intermediate mode before I look at another plane. Next plane will probably have flaps. For now though, I’m just glad to have something better than the old air hogs planes I used to fly as a kid.

[@Tommydoestuff]

I started with this plane too, I destroyed it because it took me a while to figure out how to fly, but I figured it out and got the t-28 Trojan 1.1m

Looks like great fun, nice job on your first attempt. Hope you are still flying the Cub and enjoying it as much as you are here. I'm only dreaming of flying one of these at this point, this has to be easier than flying an RC helicopter, I tried that and crashed a lot. lol

I always wanted to get into RC planes and the enthusiasm in your video just convinced me to place an order for this plane. Which I have just done.

[@outsourcedrc]

Its a great one! You will love it!

[@free-birdrocker8809]

Its cool that this is your "first flight". The thing is, you have a buddy to set it up and you are with him and not by yourself. I taught myself long before you tube with gas powered balsa birds and I crashed the hell out of some hard work I did. I asked around and purchased a flying beer cooler like the one you have there, and I had no help, no flight simulator, did it all by myself. So, you have help...I didn't. Sorry bubb...🤣

Well done my man 👌

[@pete7996]

Great job, great advise from the trainer.

[@joegroves2517]

Great job! I learned by myself with this same plane and your landings were much better. It was so hard to get it to drop down in SAFE but those initial landings it was a huge help, and being able to pop it back into SAFE when I needed it. It was so confusing though how intermediate mode flips into SAFE at a certain altitude.

[@outsourcedrc]

Thanks! Its an easy plane to fly and I had a good teacher I think.

[@johnrobinson1140]

I recently purchased this plane, haven't had a nice day to try it yet. I was also told it might be hard to land in safe. any tips for a soon to be solo attempt with no training?

[@e_Duardus]

Hi! I am about to buy my first plane and I am considering the same one. I found your video, and its nice to see that it is possible not to crash the plane in the first landing. I know that there is an option of auto-landing available for this plane, but I guess that you didn't use that... (English is not my mother language and I am not able to understand the whole conversation with your instructor)

[@outsourcedrc]

This plane does have an auto landing feature, but it requires a sensor. You won't need it. This plane is a fantastic first plane. It's easy to fly. It's easy to land. Just make sure you have enough room. The only times I have crashed it, were when I was flying in a area I really shouldn't have been. It's survived every crash with only minor nicks and dings. Just be sure you buy extra props. You are probably going to break the little gray panels on the landing gear also if you crash.

[@MrLoughneagh]

Hi guy's does safe help if you lose orientation? For example getting mixed up with knowing if the plane is flying away from you or towards you.?

[@outsourcedrc]

I don't think it does. Safe just prevents you from rolling it over in the air basically

[@bruce1106]

GPS will protect against losing orientation. Allows you to setup a virtual fence. Cost about $50 at Horizon Hobby. Of course, having all these safeguards can delay the full learning experience. Then again, "real" experience is probably more expensive 😉
