I was the RV-12 pilot! Greg from Vans Aircraft bought that for me to fly in combat because he asked if I was going to fly my RV-12 I bought in combat, he said "If you build and fly it for combat, I'll buy you a new one". He took me over to the build tent and bought it, I stayed up all night building and finishing the next day. A plane got some string stuck in my motor after a mid-air. It was a lot of fun!

I was the duel motor wonder with yellow streamer at 18:05-18:30 got 4 kills total in that combat, those were me two hardest hits, not sure how I did not loose my wing on that second hit but somehow it held on!

This is one of the best Flite Fests. The weather was supposed to be rain for the entire event, but instead we only got overcast skies. It was great. It was as close to perfect as anyone could ask for.

@shimes424 Radios have changed a lot, I'm not even entirely up to speed yet myself. I use a Spektrum dx8 mostly, its 2.4ghz, no crystals or channel assignments anymore. Interference and getting "shot down" is still a thing even with the new tech.

I confirmed that DSM2 sucks in this event. I got about 30 seconds of flight then lost radio contact with the airplane entirely. It was worth a try, didn't expect it to work. But wanted to experience it first hand versus what everyone expected it to do. Kept it and myself off the to the left hand side of everyone else and the crowd and a ways toward the back.. Where it got dumped. It was nice to see that everyone else's 2.4GHz radios seemed to perform flawlessly in these conditions. And a lesson for me to never show up at FlightFest with DSM2 radios. I did fly my (OMP radio/Multiprotocol module) M2 helicopter later on without any radio issues while a ton of people were flying.

Everyone always spends all their time trying to keep it in the air, not crash it that looks like a damn blast. Everybody get it relatively inexpensive plane and just go have fun. Great idea for somebody where else you gonna find that many pilots doesn’t really matter if you can fly very well lol it’d be more fun. That way you’d be taking people out need something with some EDC’s or the motor behind the wing to protect it God that looks like fun

Okay, idiot question here. How do they manage to not double up on frequencies and end up controlling someone else's plane?
@RCwithAdam13 ай бұрын
The radio tech keeps your plane receiver and transmitter link together, except sometimes the frequencies can get oversaturated and cause a loss of control. But I don't think that would lead to controlling someone else's plane.
