Value Hobby Hummer 3D EPP RC Plane First Look

[@enriquekramer4590]

Another hit in the proverbial nail's head! You have been choosing models that I alreasy have or would like to have -the MX2 and this Hummer have been on my wishlist for some time now...

[@RCVideoReviews]

I'll try and get the build/maiden done as soon as I can. I think these two planes will wind up being regulars at the field. Thanks for checking-in.

[@WTJimmy]

Nice find! Looking forward to the build and flight review!

[@RCVideoReviews]

Me too. I think this will be every bit as fun as the MX2.

[@airhammer6203]

For the money, it's very interesting. Good luck with it!👍

[@RCVideoReviews]

Yeah it is, thanks. Video as soon as possible.

[@proprotornut5389]

Nice review. I've got the Ripples 3D version of this. Still figuring out correct CG. Thanks.🙂🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@RCVideoReviews]

Did you try rolling inverted and adjusting to neutral elevator input?

[@proprotornut5389]

@@RCVideoReviews I've just been pottering around with it so far. Hit a tree and nosed it into the ground once as well. Broke prop only, and now waiting for decent weather again. It's not been a good summer at all here in Scotland. 😢 Look forward to your views on this new bird.🙂🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

One of my new favorite things to do with these planes that are supposed to be borderline unstable is to put them on their back and see what they do. For flat symmetric wings I want to see them maintain altitude with very very little to know elevator. Try it when you get back in the air. I'll set this plane up that way.

[@koalatails6391]

I would preferred that colour scheme over what I have, it wasn’t available at the time. The opening in the vertical stabiliser may need to be enlarged to allow full elevator movement. Dry test this before gluing together, if you can lay the foam flat it’s a lot easier to cut neatly.

[@RCVideoReviews]

Gotch'ya. Thanks for the tip. I will do that. I kinda liked the HK scheme--but who am I kidding, I'm just glad I got the plane :) This one is the KT Basher!

A friend from my model club is stalking HobbyKing ATM waiting for the Hummer to come back in stock

[@jeremyp9161]

Great plane flies nice you will get your money out of it

[@RCVideoReviews]

Thanks for the comment Jerry. I'm gonna beat it, I'm gonna punish it, I'm gonna learn at least some basic 3D with these planes.

[@jeffdillingham2999]

I've got a Hummer! it will be interesting to see what you think of it. Mine has a Turnigy 2836/8 1100kv motor swinging an 11x3.8 SF prop, powered by a 3s 1300mah battery.

[@RCVideoReviews]

I'll either put the same Turnigy motor or the Sunnysky on the Hummer. I'll get it together hopefully before the weekend. Always appreciate your comments--thanks for checking in. J

[@rodwormington7513]

I'll send you pictures of where I reinforced motor mount and wing. I cracked the wing when I pulled out of a steep maneuver!! Have fun..you will enjoy!

[@RCVideoReviews]

Awesome. Thanks!

[@rayster57]

Great review 👍 keep up 🔃 🙄🙄🙄 the good work. "I got a Hummer" really? 🤣🤣🤣

[@RCVideoReviews]

I throw soft pitches out there from time to time just to see who's listening and who the dirty joke tellers are. Knutz has swallowed that bait hook line and sinker at least once. You just joined the club.

[@RCVideoReviews]

Ah HAH! Alrighty, you're on the list. Good to know who the jokers are.

USPS problems are due to the fact that they don't own any airplanes for freight delivery. They normally rely on commercial airlines for freight delivery, but with so few commercial flights now, they are having problems moving freight. USPS now has to contract with UPS or FedEx for freight transport on their planes when space is available. Make sense? I know all my USPS deliveries have been very late.

[@RCVideoReviews]

It took 3 days for 90 miles. I think there's more to it than planes. I think they have staff shortages and can't keep up with their workload. I've also seen the mail truck running on Sunday which is unusual.

[@davidknutz3314]

I’m wondering how HK will fair after the fine that the FCC levied against them. $2.8 million

[@RCVideoReviews]

I heard about that--something about transmitter frequencies right? I hope it doesn't do any lasting damage.
