This plane has been out for a while now and I have yet to see a review this thorough!! You are covering it all!! Perfections my friend!! Keep up the good work!

[@payitfwdrcl6171]

Rich....Cool....That is a really good looking F-16 from Eflite. You sure did put it through the paces and it held up very well. Good tip on the field repair of the nose gear. Looks like grass around the flying field could use a little trimming. Haha. We been getting tons of rain too this summer. 😊

[@RCINFORMER]

I could do without the crosswind as well:) We plan to head out again for some more High alpha flight without the cross:)

[@payitfwdrcl6171]

RCINFORMER ....Awesome. Look forward to seeing more. 👊

[@mikessi]

Very sporty! It took a few passes but you finally got the number 5 right side up... "because I was inverted". Keep up the good work.

[@JCS3D]

Good timing on this video's upload. I am watching your E-Flite F-16 series now Rich. Great work as usual but the new timestamps are a notch above!

[@RCINFORMER]

Thanks for watching Chris!

[@gavstreet8976]

You have really been helpin me out lately I appreciate it :)

[@deppi]

Thanks Rich for this video. Helped me to kinda fix my nose gear . Really helped. I could not bend it all the way back its really stiff . But its much better now. Thanks again man.

[@RCINFORMER]

Thanks for watching, thanks for the support!

[@booch9mm796]

Rich, I set my high rate for elevator at 125%, keep CG normal and pin the elevator all the way back to the stop while giving it lots of throttle and it practically stands on it's tail all day long. This bird DOES NOT STALL! Best EDF I have ever owned by far (and the most fun). Each flight of mine is about 5 - 5.5 minutes with a 3300 70C HRB and it is at a high AOA for 4 of those minutes. The fan/motor is easy on the battery too...not a single indication of puff and I have about 30 flights on each battery so far. Eflite nailed it with this ELECTRIC JET!

[@pete538]

What is your voltage when you are done with the flight? I fly 4000 and 5000 and I can get 4-5 mins ending around 3.7 per cell

[@JeffsCustomRC]

Can’t wait to get mine next week, gonna fly it like I stole it lol, thanks for sharin buddy👊🏼👊🏼👍🏼👍🏼🔥💥

[@RCINFORMER]

This thing is sweet:) See you guys Tuesday!

[@deppi]

@@RCINFORMER Hey Rich,, planning to buy this jet. I can only fly from grass which are not the best kept. You think the nose gear will hold up well ? Will it bent a lot? Can you maybe do a grass ops video on this if possible 🙏👍🙂

[@looneytunes47]

Sweet on the fly nose wheel repair tutorial Rich

[@gavstreet8976]

Yeah once you get a good amount of time practicing that it does it great and hold full up elevator and control your rate of descent/assent with throttle and it’ll settle in really nice

[@millermonsterair]

i cant wait to see you trying this on a calm day.

[@RCINFORMER]

Me 2!

[@kendonnelly3248]

good way to practice it. I'm gonna do that also.

[@millermonsterair]

F-16s, in my opinion, are great in high alpha. well, every F-16 i have flown, flies really well in high alpha. they always feel locked in and dont feel like theyre gonna stall out as bad as many edf/jets do. theyre a little on the fast side due to the high wing load, but they just fly where you want them to and always just feel locked in.

[@zubuxstein]

What you mean Steve might be right? Steve is always right brah! ha ha Good stuff, enjoyed the touch-n-go and the overall tutorial! *dragin the tail, nice.

[@dalerbsr.5061]

Fun to learn new tricks, and fun watching other.. lol

[@gavstreet8976]

I had to buy like 5 new nose landing gear thank you sooo much I never knew how to fix it

[@crashkorey]

They piss me off by not using proper trailing link struts.

[@reckemroysrc3764]

Rich knows all the tricks. I've learned a ton from him 😎✌

[@gavstreet8976]

RECKEM ROYS RC yup he sure does I made a video for him on how to high alpha it’s my most recent video

[@millermonsterair]

with f-16s, i usually like a cg that is slightly aft. unless its real windy, then ill move it forward a little to help it track better in the wind, but that means ill be on the throttle more.... typically though, i do like it slightly aft because it makes it a little more "unstable" so it can do some pretty tight loops without having to really go crazy with elevator rates.

[@flymachine]

Over rate your elevator and on mine I added two servos in the wings and made slats/droops that are on a dial switch on a spare channel and I dial them in as I add power with full elevator and it feels like it could High alpha all day long - watching someone with your skills struggling makes it look very hard to do lol. reflexing the droops gives me extra speed too like the real one

[@RCINFORMER]

This is me with more Alpha practice:) kzbin.info/www/bejne/bqPRpat6l72gipI My CG was way forward during these flights, and I was more of a alpha beginner during this video:) My Rafale does this much better & I have a bit more experience doing it now that I've had more practice.

[@LoveRC]

Thanks for the great demonstration on high alpha. I'm always running off the runway. I need to practice this. Did you say you have elevator at 100% for this?

[@RCINFORMER]

Yes, 100% with the ball links on the elevator horns moved in one notch for better throw.

[@gavstreet8976]

Also it wants to land in high alpha

[@Hughejazshole]

Do you do high alpha? Jk thanks for the vid

[@javikarras]

Hi! Great video, rockets are included?

[@RCINFORMER]

only the wing tip rockets.

[@javikarras]

@@RCINFORMER thanks bro!

[@ibsilly4u568]

U were putting your power in to early and not pulling up to late if your going to do hi alpha with this jet u need to commit but u will love it when it gets locked in just takes time

[@RCINFORMER]

I'm working on it... Hopefully I will have my pitch and power usage better on the next flight:) I was erring on the side of caution because of the cross when we had...

[@crashkorey]

Why doesn't horizon use trailing links? Those suspension struts are useless because they don't bend back which takes stress of that pin

[@RCINFORMER]

You really cant have a trailing link on an F-16. By design, they won't retract in the well & it would look weird.

[@Mikeylikesit1968]

Because FMS likes having scale struts on there planes and jets, Not like Freewing where they have only one kind of struts that are used on different jets and look tacky cause there not scale

[@matthewjames2649]

Slow and low that is the tempo..yo.!!.lol!

[@matthewjames2649]

What is up with the commercials.. ¿ Ty4sharing them ..

[@millermonsterair]

"theres a little bit of weed in here" me: wait, wut?? lol
