The HA BULL is COMPLETE - RC Plane

[@thelightersideofrc]

The Hispano Aviation Bull is complete! Very quick build on this aircraft! Thanks for watching the series! Now we just need some spring weather to maiden the aircraft!

[@kimbeaumont762]

Great build and great looking aircraft👍

[@thelightersideofrc]

Thanks Kim!

[@jimr7154]

Another beautiful job

[@thelightersideofrc]

Thanks!

[@texnikvova]

Congratulations man!!!!! As always excellent build. Your legacy goes all the way down to Southern California. Looking forward to see more builds.

[@thelightersideofrc]

Thanks so much Vladimir! I appreciate it! Thanks for watching!

[@s9523pink]

Gorgeous, beautiful build!

[@thelightersideofrc]

Thank you!

[@stevemorgan5684]

Really looking forward to seeing Bull perform!! Nice work.. again! and as always

[@thelightersideofrc]

You and me both! Thanks Steve!

[@Krash_fpv]

This thing is complete....and don't take this wrong but your videos are like ASMR ...your process is clean and insightful and your voice is relaxing idk lol... One day I will fly these beasts until then I'll help my buddies out theirs together at the field and enjoy the snow

[@thelightersideofrc]

HAHA. Thanks Tory! I appreciate your comment and thank you for watching!

[@davidleleux4948]

You're wright about the voice of Jon, I speak French but I perfectly understand him which is also very important if you want a maximum of viewers all around the world. Congratulations Jon !

[@thelightersideofrc]

Thanks David😊

[@alric9562]

That is one way to melt the snow in front the garage door. 😉😀

[@thelightersideofrc]

You got that right!

[@thomasschmidt9281]

quick bild....... fast plane 😄 👍 verry, verry nice work

[@thelightersideofrc]

Thanks 👍 Thomas!

[@Sluf7]

Well that went fast. She would be a good starter Jet as pretty straight forward to build up with middle range turbine. Excellent work. Right next........;0).

[@thelightersideofrc]

Thanks Nick! Yea great plane for a first timer or a seasoned pilot. 120N turbine to 250 N turbine!

[@Axr24have]

The Bull looked like a fun build for sure. Nicely done!

[@thelightersideofrc]

Thanks John! Was a hoot to put together. Nice a quick! Light and Acurate!

[@hornetrider6680]

Hi Jon, Very nice built. I love your vids. Have you ever considered to use FuelBag instead of Tank & UAT? I am using FuelBag and it is lighter. With a 3L tank you easily can safe 200gramms. Additionally the plumbing is reduced to 2 lines! 😊 Great job of yours!

[@thelightersideofrc]

Would absolutely love too but they are not allowed in Canada. We are fairly free on rules but that’s one of the stupid ones for sure!

[@hornetrider6680]

@@thelightersideofrc Wow. Didn't know that the fuelbags are not allowed. Kind of strange. Would be interested to know the reason.

[@thelightersideofrc]

Yea just part of our governing body’s rules. 🤦🏻

[@davewilshere]

If you twist it vertical as you prime the system that’s it. In flight all the guys who set them vertically have them horizontal in a Full bore climb 😂

[@thelightersideofrc]

Haha. That’s great Dave! Never thought of that before 🤣. That alone quashes the “filter MUST be vertical” mentality.

[@davewilshere]

Never worry how the filter mounts, just that it’s purged of air on the first prime/run. After that it’s a sealed system.

[@thelightersideofrc]

Exactly!

[@noelgraham4607]

Another one done. What's next!

[@thelightersideofrc]

The Ranger is Started and Complete. The Large CARF L-39 is about 1/2 way done and then the Pair of F4's starts.

[@pauld5530]

Can’t believe with the number of aircraft you build you’re not using a Xicoy balancer. 🤔😋

[@thelightersideofrc]

I have and very often use my Xicoy Balancer. I hate measuring for the xicoy balancer. We have a solution coming for that! Stay Tuned!

[@tonymorroll5687]

Just a quick thank you for brilliant aircraft builds. I don't fly anymore but I love watching you videos and the superior quality of your work. Looking forward to the next project. Keep them coming mate.

[@thelightersideofrc]

Thanks Tony and thanks for watching!

[@davidsoufer116]

Amazing how fast and nicely you assemble these jets .. awesome 👏🏻.. what’s next 😎

[@thelightersideofrc]

Thanks David! Boomerang ranger started and completed. CARF L39 about 1/2 complete as of today and then a sweet pair of F4’s!😎

[@davidleleux4948]

Hi Jon, how do you dare a tip time without Trusty it's a shame 😂😂 It's a joke of course ! It seems the rudder is shaking during engine test isn't it ? Thanks for all as always 👍👍

[@thelightersideofrc]

Haha. I know hey!!! Yea that’s a norm with a cortex and most jets. It doesn’t usually show up in flight but a common solution is to build a foam house around it.

[@davidleleux4948]

@@thelightersideofrc ok but why on the ground and not on the air? I would be affraid to take of after had seen that on the ground... in fact i don't really know what the cortex is, is it the gyro? If yes i can understand, maybe it feels some yaw vibrations during engine test on the ground when you hold the aircraft with your hand and he wants balance it with the rudder... thanks for explainations please 👍

[@wargor]

Any reason you don't use the Xicoy for balancing anymore? just curious. Thanks

[@thelightersideofrc]

Mainly just the pain in the butt to do the measurements. We have a game changing solution coming soon!😉😊

[@davefreiman8169]

2 questions please. What’s your source for the hot glue strain relief mold and, why did you use a rex12 instead of a Rex satellite?

[@thelightersideofrc]

For sure Dave. I will have to do some searching to find it but it came from a fellow in Europe. If you send me an email It will be the best way for me to search and then send you the info. I use a Rex 12 or Rex 7 with the 40cm Dipole antennas. Better signal strength vs the small straight antennas.

[@wcever4462]

Love the channel! I’m thinking about getting into R/C. I know I’m not going to start with turbines For us newbies could you explain what some of the systems do? IE what is a UAT. Need some help with the acronyms! Thanks

[@thelightersideofrc]

Great Suggestion for a video! Thank you for this one! On the todo list!

[@bigjoesburgers]

Uat means universal air trap. It's purpose is to catch any air bubbles in the fuel system before they reach the turbine. Air bubbles in the fuel supply to the turbine will possibly cause a flame out.

[@klausrohrbach6041]

Hey Jonathan, in reference to mounting the batteries, 3M DuraLock is a great option. Has a super strong adhesive backing and locks together with plastic fingers/teeth, similar to Velcro but has incredible shear strength. And very hard to pull apart.

[@thelightersideofrc]

Hey Klaus! Thanks for the suggestion! I need to source some of this stuff for sure! I ended up getting JOE, my 3D printing guy to do some battery holders for me. They have a cool quick release system. Basically it's a box that holds the battery and the box clips in place.

[@TheSaberwolf309]

Sorry gonna have to dip on channel i'll check back on content if you start test flying your builds then you got me back.

[@thelightersideofrc]

Thanks for the visit. I’m located in Canada so out 5 months of winter means we need to wait for spring

[@IceMan2035]

Is this the turbine model you suggested getting into a turbine plane flying? I built one on the Boomerang website and yeah it's a lot cheaper than I thought it was. Thanks for that

[@thelightersideofrc]

Yea! The Bull is a great option as well as the boomerangs. 2 very different level of aircraft but both easy fliers.

[@r.d.boschung8374]

Sir, I think it would be safer for you if you wore some sort of eye protection when running up jet engines. Your face is rather close to the jet and fuel tank, if anything cut loose like a pressurized line for turbine blades, safety glasses would certainly help mitigate eye damage. Use a pair of shop glasses maybe, or sunglasses outdoors. Thanks, Bo

[@thelightersideofrc]

Great suggestion and I appreciate it. Thank you!😊
