thanks guys. I'm currently undergoing intensive phisical therapy for my "hand cramp" the invoice is in the mail Zach.

[@TailHeavyProductions]

Please feel better soon! Your invoice will be taken care of shortly. Probably. - Ben

Is this the Wild Blue who competed in the Everglades challenge?

[@cooldude815doesthings14]

I'm currently charging up the battery to my first ever custom foam-board plane! I've been keeping in mind all your channel's tips, and tomorrow hopefully I will successfully maiden it!

How did it go?

[@cooldude815doesthings14]

@@mcyounglordlauch7012 got the flight done! It was a little tail heavy, and crashed immediately, though it was an exhilarating 5 seconds! The damage it minimal, and I’ll be able to get it flying again soon, this time hopefully with more weight in the nose!

[@mcyounglordlauch7012]

@@cooldude815doesthings14 thats nice to hear, that it atleast somewhat flew Good luck in improving, and feel free to share your progress here, id be interested, how it will fly after the improvements :))

[@1212354a]

Zach and Aiden, I waited all week for this video! My son and I watched the evolution of this tri-wing from one table over. Best part of the fest, Bailey’s amazing behavior.

A lot of the fun of FliteFest really happens after the sun sets. The night you guys were spotlighting, I was on the other end of the line with the PPG guys. I was laughing my ass of listening and watching you guys. Same thing when you kept trying to take my and Bixler’s head off with your baby PPG. It was cool to meet you guys.

The Dave Powers mention!! 😭 what happened to RCPowers btw?

[@J4nkyFPV]

@flexinnovations you should definately build the triplane - I'd seriously consider thinking about buying at least 3!!

[@CR-rb5hl]

I enjoy your videos very much. I made to Flite Fest for the first time this year. Sadly I missed the chance to meet you guys. I did see the TRI 170 and thought to myself, "That is something Tail Heavy would do." Not thinking it was you guys. I was just soooo overwhelmed and blown away with the whole Flite Fest experience I couldn't think straight. I'll make a point to and looking forward to chatting with you guys next year. See you in 25.

Lose the Peter Sripol-esque Tiktok music.

[@terryboehler5752]

Seriously, the 170 with two factory built wings would be a very sweet looking airplane. This is why modeling exists. Cheaply finding out if an idea works. Im so happy to see kids building

[@bokusimondesu]

Great video 😊 as always - and then some! 👍

[@Shadow_Liger-io5lg]

Thanks for featuring our plane "The Broomba mk2 - Attack on dollar tree" with that first clip in the intro, it made our day. From, the 3d printer guy on that team

[@FarmerFpv]

This was comedy. I would love to see you guys build a plane big enough for the chihuahua to sit in and fly. I'm sure he would love to fly and feels left out. 😥 Maybe a ground-effect vehicle? Like a Land Ekranoplan? Make sure to put a Snoopy scarf on him when he flies.

[@barbnegilski6193]

Bailey is his name ❤

Flite Fest was fun as always this year but it was so hot we stayed at our campers most of the day and flew in the evening/night. We saw the paramotors flying and they were really cool to see.

[@CalebKirchoff]

Your best video👌👌👌

[@minezyo7335]

I love the longer video 😊

[@truckerbanjoman]

Wish I approached you guys. The social anxiety got the best of me.

[@Jeckogecko]

now add a triple decker tail with extra twin booms an edf and the largest rocket engine you can get. then maybe flex will buy it.

[@timpandy5920]

Bro that entire time I was there you were in the same tent as me and I didn’t even notice. At around 2:17 I’m sitting there at the table with the scout XL facing the ground. Glad to see myself in your videos thank you. Not only that you caught me sleeping at 9:47, that just made my night.

[@gsestream]

who said vertically symmetric planes are bad, or even horizontally symmetric, like quad copters. also tri-planes are just fine.

[@andrewschwartzenberger9214]

I wish i went there

[@showusyaguppysaustralia1515]

3mins in and had to pause because i had to say great video guys would love to make it over for flite fest sometime in the future! Looks like a blast!!

[@evanduncan25]

Your vids help my ptsd episodes go away. Thanks

[@michaelwhinnery164]

I wonder what the AMA thinks about flight fest ? Because this is the All gas no Brakes version of RC If anyone got hurt or died they probably didn't mind to much because they were doing something they loved when it happened. I Love Flight Test and can't wait to make it out to Flight Fest.

[@jordansrc9815]

great long form vid and another AMAZING production! 🎉

[@drivingjunk7630]

I would love a 170 biplane...maybe I should convert mine

[@WindCatcherRC]

Flite Fest 2024 was amazing! Awesome people, tons of planes, lots of carnage, and heat stroke. Looking forward to 2025! See you there.

[@Theplaneguy757]

ngl would love if you guys came down to Florida at some point. each month on the last Saturday of the month we host an event called float and fly, would love if you guys came down and did some seaplane ops with us. (and a tad bit if building) -sincerely, the guy who made the a-10 on floats

[@MrGpse]

More wings on thing's yes! Without RcPowers and the Spoctra50 crew There's been a vacuum and folks just got too serious. Fly because it's fun!

[@bethanythedford9226]

I know this isn’t about rc planes but i’ve noticed pilots scratchbuild planes and have fun while doing it, so why can’t the model train hobby be like this as well? Not trying to start drama but i can’t find anything on how to build locomotives on google,, the reason i’m saying this is the first train caused nothing but trouble when i got it, constant derailments, the cars kept breaking and the cheap build quality was awful so i sent it back, now i’m working on building a locomotive with a simple gear train drive system and sound capabilities, oh and an update on the horse plane, the area i live in has lots of treees and overhead powerlines so even if it works i won’t be able to fly it

[@mauritz1774]

I live in Germany, and can not gonto flite test. German RC Hobby guys are unfriendly old guys

I’m not sure how to apply to Tail Heavy Productions, but I assume my resume must have a ton of sarcasm. 😂

[@jamesfarriss]

Thank you for the video and Simple Cub 555% footage

[@RamadaArtist]

1:02 "There were actually a lot of issues we faced." *cut to shot of the RC plane flying around with one of the wings trying to moonlight as a rudder*

[@waltergist8923]

How about something like a Crash Test Hobby wing or similar turned into a bi-wng. or for more of a challenge one wing but more than one fuselage. Keep up the good work.

[@johnzasadzinski6174]

YOOO Purdue bro what's up! I remember you from DBF '24, what a legend!

Flex leaving early can't have been a coincidence. But please don't let that stop you.

It was great to see you guys working on this at flitefest. Love the total disregard for convention and common sense. 😂

that cesna 170 flys amazing without mods. Its is the best flying models flex has released even better than the rv8 in my opinion.
