The SLOWEST beginner RC Airplane - UMX SLOW ULTRA STICK RTF!

[@gliderrider]

I Like It! Just what I need for flying across the street so I don’t have to go all the way to the air park, which always has more wind than in town. It’s about the size of a football field. Perfect. And truth be known, I’m kind of a niche pilot. I like small things. Planes, gliders, drones, ham radios,etc. 😂 Little planes = little problems = small expenses.

[@CentristRN]

Many Many years ago before internet and before RC sims I spent a month building a Gentle Lady glider. Sadly….Killed it on day one. Just ordered one of these. Excited to try again.

[@backyardbasher]

I built A Gentle Lady 2M Sail Plane in my living room about 30 years ago, covered the wings and fuselage in Solar Film and put a TD Cox .049 engine on the front. Went to the local flying field and spent an hour trying to get the engine started but when it did the Glider went above the Clouds and we lost sight of it for about 2 minutes, after it dropped below them it stayed up in the air for about 30 minutes before coming in for landing.

[@bobbelsekwol]

Mate of mine built a helicopter over a year and a bit. Did a few hours on a trainer then tried it without! It become a grass strimmer/weedeater and he picked it up in a bucket. Sold it as spares and never bothered again.

[@petenick7829]

I built a Gentle Lady and taught myself to fly with it and a small homemade hi start way back when. Your Ultra Stick flies a lot like a GL. Slow, so it gives the new pilot time to think until the reactions become automatic. That must have a very low wing loading. No doubt you could shut the motor off and thermal it in the right conditions. For teaching yourself to fly, first a computer simulator, then a model like the Ultra Stick would work. But you have to have the patience to wait for a calm day and you have to find an open area with no obstructions. Nice model !

[@RAM512]

That little guy looks like a blast, so calm and relaxing. It reminds me of the balsa wood rubber band powered planes we all played with as a kid. You baught them for. 99¢ remember!!! And thank on of those and R/C it.... Cool

[@dlbeers1]

My gramgram worked long time at Guillows in Wakefield ma. They made the balsa cheapies around here....

[@JRSonOfRichard]

Yup I remember. Those were the days. Cap guns, model rockets, BB guns...

[@tauncfester3022]

North Pacific in Bend, Oregon made the Sleek Streek a little "15 rubber powered ROG Balsa toy airplane. with the right tuning they would fly for about 30 seconds. I built a scaled up slowflyer RC version of the Sleek Streak as a biplane at 33" and 260 square inches of wing area. It will fly at a little over a slow jog at 1/3rd throttle, weighs 4 oz. with a 300 mAh 2s pack.

[@coopart1]

So cool to watch. I flew RC in the early 90s electric planes sucked at 4000 feet above sea level but now WOW they have come along way.

[@33818ual]

I got the night viper , another super easy plane to fly!!! This will be my next flyer ,can't wait THANKS!!

[@jayaustin3096]

I love the night vapor don't have this one. Another great video.

“Where I live on Long Island”. Nothing was ever more obvious when the first words were spoken in this video 😅. Cool little plane.

[@BrianKelsay]

I really like the simplicity of this plane. I plan to get one. I remember the old Ugly Stick and a few others of that design.

[@DavidBostock-ti2fv]

I'm stunned. Looking forward to a clean well executed rolling circle and some 9 average IAC sequences KZbin videos. Thank You

[@GagePenselin-ji6sh]

Dude! This plane looks sweet. Would love to test one out someday, keep it up!

[@Mike-pb5bj]

Nice video ! This slow flyer look very Nice with the blue color ! I'm sure it's a good back yard plane ! An other umx in my collections ! 😃 ✈️ 👍

[@jeronimo20242]

i think it was a great idea putting the rudder control in a aileron control right stick that way if a beginner upgrade to a aileron plane later they already have the habit of turning with ailerons. thanks was a nice video!!!

[@3DMOFO2020]

Awesome job on the flight and video Jay. I look forward to seeing if HH come out with a brushless version with ailerons? Dough I wouldn't be suprised if they end up making it silghtly bigger like a 800mm size just like there Micro Drago.

[@lowercentenary]

How quiet is it? Would like to fly next to neighbors in small front yard in a city setting without disturbing anyone...

[@JustinHenson-p8p]

Sweet little plane. It’s funny because I like having my rudder and elevator on the same stick. I fly all my planes with ailerons on the throttle side.

[@pallidbustofpallas4679]

Looks like my old Parkzone Ember, but it didn't have AS3X or the light kit. What can I say, I'm buying it! You got a new subscriber too.

[@3DPrintHangar_RC]

That thing reminds me so much of the old school Park Zone Ember from probably close to a decade ago🔥 that new stick looks like it’s a BLASSSTT!!!

[@steventortora4487]

Yes modeled after that is what eflite said

[@tauncfester3022]

You can still buy the Parkzone Ember 2 for about $90

Sigh pre-ordered in July and the ship date was September. Just noticed on the website it's now November. Can't wait for something sturdier than my Night Vapor (hopefully any way).

[@erichoffman8521]

Mid-October is what I heard back from them for shipping now.

[@yamabiru4553]

Very nice demo and camera work

[@BryceFedako]

I love how jay uploads multiple videos a week!

[@tauncfester3022]

The late, great Grand Wing Servo Pico Tiger Moth was slower, heavier but a biplane and much slower. Now if this was a biplane it would be a lot calmer and slower. considering it's small size and weight you could fly this with more up trim and less throttle, but an extra wing would make this perfect.

[@Alexiscoollol3064]

I love that plane

[@philfrydman2576]

Ñice and straight to demo. I wish there was a bit of tech details of the the plane and rc. Thanks.

[@TydeStudiosAnimation]

You should test the Powerup 4.0, i have one, its actually pretty good

[@randall1959]

I remember when you had to build those. They're great fun.

[@joewickie2376]

[@michaelsouders4026]

Can you change the remote so that rudder is on the left stick?

[@CentristRN]

Received mine the other day. Have been playing with the simulator. Is it normal to have an extreme amount of pitch response to throttle changes?

[@AwesomesMan]

I wanna see your favorite backyard flyers vid!

[@daviddavids2884]

at least e-f did not put servos at the tail, on this version.!!! it should be determined whether the pushrods need guides, in order to prevent flexing during 'push'.

[@blairniven5433]

Just too cool 😎

[@LENC00L]

150 bucks is just insane.

[@Vizzix]

well it's UMX, they sell overpriced foam

[@Rudy32225]

Right, I would want ailerons for a full training experience.

[@guerrillaradio9953]

Lol, welcome to horizon. How would like to get cornholed with no condom on today?

[@joejunior1974]

Looks like fun!

[@nsbob70]

Is it really slower than my UMX Night Vapor?? I like this plane though, thinking about one. $120 for BNF's a little steep though. I'm a transplanted LI er too! (Now living in Floriduh) Used to shop at Larry's Hobbies on Jericho Tpke in E. Northport. Miss those days. Looks like it has just the right weight, and handles nicely. My Night Vapor gets thrown off when a butterfly farts in it's general direction!

[@FarmerFpv]

I'm disappointed they didn't put Ailerons like the bigger version. The bigger version with ailerons is a blast. Still a fun backyard flyer. But i prefer the Dancing wings slow stick with 4 channel s and on 2s with a brushless. You have to assemble it but it is a blast in the back yard. It can do many 3D maneuvers.

[@林山富-f1n]

What model of aircraft is this? I want to buy it too.

[@jimkehoe6495]

thought that was a LONGISLAND accent! I'm in Huntington!

[@AL-RCjunkie]

I've found that the Baby Draco is just as docile in calm wind. I've got a heavily wooded area behind my house and fly her slalom style through that almost every evening. That UMX SUS looks like a good time for less cash cashola, tho. Anyone taking bets on how many of those TEMU planes are on that top 5 back yard fliers list? 😊 👍

[@Jays_rcgarage]

lol one for sure. But it’s available now on Amazon. Cheaper from temu though 😂

[@TamponTea]

we need a 3d slow stick

[@stuartthomas4836]

I’m sure it can’t be as easy to fly as you make it look.

[@EDCandLace]

They are very easy. I taught my son to fly a gws slow stick. Set it up as rudder on the aliron channel. Plane flew a little slower then this model but it was a straight 3ch plane with no "Safe"/stabilization and it took me about 10 times of letting go the buddy box switch to save the plane and that was it he was fully capable of flying that plane within 5 battery's at about 8 mins a flight with absolutely zero assistance. With a fully stabilized flight mode you could absolutely take this plane out and learn to fly. Just go to a nice grassy field so you don't break anything during the first couple crashes and by the time you have 4 batteries thru it you will be able to fly it without much of an issue. High dihedral planes like this with just throttle rudder and elevator controls fly incredibly easy and with the light wing loading they are very slow and stalls are nothing more than a drop of the nose and it recovers. Absolutely fantastic plane to learn on!

[@Abc-kn5wj]

What is the panic button do on the transmitter?

[@Jays_rcgarage]

So it’s kind of useless because you have safe on a switch. But for planes or helicopters that don’t have safe on a switch you can hit the panic button at anytime to auto level the plane incase you lose orientation

[@FightForTheUsers]

Where do you buy it complete? I can't find it.

[@Jays_rcgarage]

It’s there! The link is in the description as well! Check it out

[@lijath]

It doesn't seem that slow on the video. I guess it's slow for a jet.

[@EDCandLace]

Doesn't look slow in video? Yes it does, that plane is definitely maintaining flight at like 10-12mph. Very slow flying plane

[@truenaturestormers2525]
