Just confident with any plane out there. Amazing Martin.

[@alwaysflying6540]

Great flying Martin. Looks very solid and locked in. Sounded Amazing as well

[@petrokemikal]

What a beauty... Looks fantastic.. Pilot skills of course are also exceptional..

[@Speedjunky]

SMOKE! Would be even more awesome!

[@emanuelmota7217]

Nice plane and flying. Engine and prop? Wouldn't a CF prop be more efficient?

[@finnbv2969]

Hey Martin, great video as always keep it up😊

[@andyMSH700]

very nice...dont u just love the solidity of the bi-planes....

[@rFlightFPV]

Great plane 🎉 (She’d look even better with a spinner!)

[@johnmueller5482]

Great pipe plane how all is well with you and family .All the best john

[@MartinPickering-PickeringRC]

All good thanks! Hope same for you and yours!

[@wv482]

Martin is a great flight! What engine and propeller is installed on this plane?

[@rodgersrcaviation2785]

Love your videos keep the blue side up brother

[@fastpeak]

really cool maiden bro!

[@franzschober7572]

What a testflight 👍

Your awesome!!

Your awesome ... what??

Big planes are sexy!..🤘🤩

Lol I’m sure they were nervous with the low altitude passes at the beginning 😂

I’d love to see the paperwork for celebrity testing these car-priced birds “the pilot and his representatives take no responsibility for damage caused through execution of prescribed standard manoeuvres however in the event of pilot error will cover up to 50% of the replacement costs if said crash results in total loss and loss of or negative impacts on the manufacturer publicity” “furthermore it should be noted that Mr Pickering does not crash hence any loss or damage can be inferred as being the result of a technical or mechanical failure”

[@MartinPickering-PickeringRC]

I would love to see that! Its more of a gentleman's agreement, we both know what the worst case scenario is... sadly the "I don't crash" part is not accurate, I have a few videos here on the channel! If you don't crash, you don't fly!

[@lechiffre2617]

hey martin - great channel ! - i have to make a decision between the sebart sbach 50e, katana 50e and edge 540 50e. i think they all fly great, so maybe i go with the best looks. please give me some advice - thx from germany with love.

[@alwaysflying6540]

It's been 9 months what plane did you choose 🤔

[@robertshaver4432]

You need to airfoil the tail surfaces to make the plane less tail washy which will also help to reduce the seen adverse yaw created via aileron inputs. Looks Great though! If the tail surfaces are airfoiled (looked like not) then thicken them up a-bit. Do not use differential aileron throws because when inverted or under negative G loads it's exactly wrong. I've found that the incidence of the wings relative to one another should be 1/8 of a degree toe in to one another or that is a very small amount (only a barely measurable "some".) This is being picky but your wing struts should also be very slightly toe in to one another so that they are a stabilizing force rather than the druthers.

[@robertshaver4432]

@@slange455 Offering valid thoughts!

[@NateG3678]

Putting an airfoil on the tail will do nothing for adverse yaw. Do you know what adverse yaw is? Putting quote unquote toe in on the interplane struts??? The biplanes are draggy enough, no need to do that and hinder flight performance. I’m sure you mean well.

[@robertshaver4432]

@@NateG3678I'm quite aware of what Adverse yaw is. Flat plate tails create a washy effect for the tail surfaces, it simply creates a less ridged stability with basically an induced slop in stability. A slight toe in for the struts won't create much if any extra drag but produces stability just as a slight toe in for the top and bottom wings creates extra stability and yes there are other reasons for toe in when considering bi-plane wings. Flat plate tail surfaces are a sin for a large model and it will create less stability in every axis. And speaking that bi-planes are draggy enough, so then why add drag with flat plate tail surfaces? I'm sure you meant well too!

@@robertshaver4432 Besides owning and operating a Pitts S1 in the airshow circuit for the last 10 years, and being a pilot, and a flight instructor for a living, everything you said doesn’t make sense and is wrong.

It looks a bit heavy I never saw a slow pass .

amazing kit but horrible covering job.

[@christophem3182]

too bad the engine sounds like a lawn mower 🙂

[@simonbonner5419]

It must be embarrassing to buy such an expensive plane and not have the skill to fly it

[@badassbrian11]

That prop looks way too small for the plane🤔
