That’s my next jet to be purchased . Great save !

[@jeffhenderson934]

Really impressive with both you and the Viper you got it on the ground. I can tell you having a flap servo go bad on a 1600mm warbird, it almost rolled over on final. And that “OH MY GOD, WHAT’S HAPPENING!” freeze. You’re not thinking it’s a mechanical failure immediately. I still can’t believe you greased the landing minus the use of an aileron and the flap missing! I know how you feel about damaging a favorite plane. It’s like seeing your child in pain, or hurt. I had the Eflite P-51 Blondie for 6 years when it went down. Didn’t know at the time there were no spare parts for it anymore. I still can’t throw away the crumpled mess. I’ll probably act the same way if the twin otter, the a-10, or the Arrows Viper goes down. There’s just some planes you just bond with. It’s weird.

[@naveda08]

"Highest performing EDF on the market" LOL come on man don't say stuff like that, it is nowhere near true

[@chrisboone1973]

Viper 90mm: *missing starboard airfoil control surfaces, port flap extended* Nate: 'That was kind of a challenging landing.' I had missed this one. What a plane.

[@stevenpaschall9747]

I guess the Big Guy wanted to teach a lesson in humility...lol. Thanks for sharing and posting the successful flights as well as those not so much.

[@PoochAndBoo]

Most expensive rc jet crash ever? Okay Saylors, I'm callin' clickbait on this one! I just got my first EDF jet from a guy at our club. An FMS 80mm A-10. I 'm going to stay far from the ground with it.

[@TheRcSaylors]

This is my most expensive jet I own. What do you mean clickbait? I guess I am confused. I would definitely consider this a crash, and it’s my most expensive jet. Could you please explain?

[@PoochAndBoo]

@@TheRcSaylors Just kidding! Love you guys. It sounded as though there was going to be some massive, dramatic crash. But you did well pulling her out and bringing it back. I'm afraid my sense of humor doesn't come over well as a text!

[@tedh173]

You are so LUCKY!!! .. having Horizon Hobby giving a free $600 jet to crash, while all of us have to purchase one :-)

[@TheKRU251]

No Nate. It WAS very impressive that YOU kept the 'plane in the air with no starboard wing functions working!!! Good job. Not sure how you'll fill all the wing road rash 'holes' but it'll be in the air again soon no doubt. Not warm weather in the UK either so we appreciate your content even more. Cheers.

[@dbowman8580]

Nice recovery Nate!! Too bad too sad on the damage but it's fun fixing them and getting them back in the air!!

[@BillKisel]

Great save! Nate, this is an example of why so many of us old guys are hesitant to get into EDFs. If you don't have the reflexes, you're likely to burn through a bunch of EDF planes in pretty short order.

[@richardrich6088]

AMA sucks. After having it for over ten years the one claim I had they had me use my home owners. I would not still have it but the club I fly in requires it. It’s only works if u don’t have homeowners and then they have a high deductible. The only good thing is the magazine lol.

[@marcoreviews]

The hat helps with the flight ✈️ performance! You are brave! I couldn’t fly when it is that cold 🥶! Love 💗 you guys!

[@johnsons74thsquadron74]

Dude that scrape made me hurt on the inside, especially because I love that jet, and I will be getting one in a matter of weeks. Thank goodness you were able to safely land her. She’s easily repairable.🙏

[@SeenOnTvSale]

I just heard the jet pilot shit his pants in the cockpit.

[@MrPolymers]

As an AMA member myself, the insurance is for liability, not because you tore off an aileron, etc. Be more concerned about the 1/2 million dollar lawsuit by someone being hit in the head. That said, that is a nice jet.

[@BigAlFPV17]

I love that jet & when I get really good at flying them, I'm going to pick up one. Also, a great save too despite the right flap that snapped off 😊⚓

[@sirhilsam]

Skills! You were as cool as a cucumber and compensating like crazy in the air. THIS is why The RC Saylors are so 100% real and awesome. Please show how you bring this jet back to flying condition.

[@bobturner3388]

this is going to sound corny but if you look at your plane when it impacted the planes attitude changed direction to right side. Yet, you continued straight almost as if someone shoved it back in correct orientation! Really amazing that it went back uo!

[@CopperCanyonTerrapins]

Definitely make a video documenting the repair process and wrench time you have to put in to rebuild this plane! Will make for some good content!

[@SharneAndrews]

Great save mate, good catch. Post a video of the fix too please!

[@montanapete59102]

Dang!! At least it's a fixable issue!! Glad it wasn't worse!!

[@josephmorelli3191]

Glad it wasn’t too bad. Good job. Nice video.

[@TheRcSaylors]

Thanks Joseph! 😁⚓️

[@dutchloveRC]

GREAT touch n go, fastest one Ive seen ; )

[@marcoreviews]

If I had been at the controls I would have totaled the jet! Amazing 😉 recovery!

[@TheRcSaylors]

Thank you so much! 👍😁😎👍

[@bcflyer99]

The title of this video says: "Most EXPENSIVE RC Jet Crash Ever!!" I was expecting you nailing it into the ground.

[@rcav8r185]

Oh. I’m so sorry. I have never flown that but I’ve heard it’s good. I have the F18 80mm and I love it. Hope you get it repaired

[@nicksantitoro]

Can we get a repair video on this plane? I know it’s not something you would normally do, but it would be cool to see how you repair something like this.

[@skardy8_fpvakabradlee881]

Madness!!! That landing was smooth!!! Can’t wait to get a plane been watching all your videos on planes haha

[@snoriverrc3842]

On the up side Nate tied the worlds record for lowest high speed pass! They got these in stock last week, and they sold out in less than 24 hours.

[@marktallen007]

Love the fact that y’all show us the good tha bad and the ugly. Your channel has grown so much because you give credit where it’s due.I’m just saying you might have been shown some favor on that landing lol…. Keep the great videos coming!

[@animalanimal7939]

Wow. Got your ass both in and out of trouble. That hat is magical

[@xJae14x]

Super skilled landing under those circumstances

[@charlesherrmann719]

Great job at pulling a rabbit out of the hat on that landing!

[@scottfirman]

Any crash you can fix is the best kind of crash. I still haven't got my Apprentice with pontoons out on the ice yet. Good save buddy!

[@kentbarnes1955]

It happens. Nice recovery. VERY nice recovery given the fact you lost ALL control on 1/2 your wing surfaces

[@doverivermedia3937]

Even when he's 'quiet' he can't stop nattering lol 😅

[@theleadingedgeaviation]

Hi Nate and Abby, huge fan of your videos! I was wondering if it is possible to fly the UMX turbo timber on the spectrum dxs transmitter?

[@Foxtrot1967]

Perfect beginner plane for someone with poor eyesight

[@jbprospector3638]

I really appreciate what you guys do for all of us. Thank you for sharing this information. Great video 👍😊

[@reckemroysrc3764]

You and Gary in that horrible cold weather. I was back there all week and I've never felt weather that cold. Minus 20 degrees in Iowa. It's crazy cold. Stay warm saylors. Nice save on the viper 👍😎👊

[@dneuens5919]

Great flying getting that thing back on the ground in relatively one piece. I think you win the lowest pass competition. 👍🏻

[@randyseaver8319]

That bites! But at least it's it one piece still! But you did a excellent job of bringing back in for a beautiful landing! Just remember stuff happens! 👍👍👽😎🤙

[@kennethrobinson9008]

Wow! Beautiful plane.

[@freemansfocus]

Great recovery! I would change both of the flap servo and aileron servo, because they may get glitchy within a few flights.

[@RCKickschannel]

You are so lucky, this could have been a bin job. How it stayed in the air is beyond me. Lovely jet.

[@TheRcSaylors]

You are absolutely right! I have no idea how this didn’t end in a thousand pieces! Thanks for tuning in! 👍😁😎⚓️

[@scrowley211]

Bummer, but stuff happens, easy repair, and great job saving the plane with the buttery landing! Live to fly another day!

[@TheRcSaylors]

Thank you my friend! Happy Flying 👍😁😎⚓️

[@BenjySparky]

Abby and Nate y'all rock! Love the channel and content! I'm here for the algorithm! Peace

Maybe you should have used the Limbo song for the background music on this one. "How low can you go?"

Great article in TX Transmitter guys! Sorry for the Viper crash. It happens to he best of us.

Amazing landing after that skip off the ground! Way to save the plane!

Good save. Could have been a trash bag day very easily

[@cwwisk]

We all try to carve tunnels at some point. Unfortunately you can't fly underground or underwater...

[@gregmcclure2640]

Nice save! My Osprey drifted into a twig on a tree last week, and I was able to fly out of it and land OK with only some chipped paint on the blade tips. Things happen! Takeoffs are optional; landings are mandatory!

[@stephenmaulden8307]

Drifted... Don't you mean you flew it into the tree... lol

Phenomenal job landing it after a slightly less Phenomenal job at a low pass... but as you say, and I echo, it can happen to any of us.

[@PhilBender612]

Ya , it happens. Stinks. 😒 You should look into programing the revearse thrust brake. That second crash into the snow bank didn't help. lol Thanks for showing us guys🤩

[@matthewbrothers2823]

Thats not as bad as you made it sound. I can say the weirdest crash I've ever had was when a bird jumped up in front of my f18 and was sucked into the intake, that was an expensive bloody mess.

[@BeautifulSafety]

Mid air brainfarts... Mine happened when my phone went off, my brainfarts attention chose the phone,looked back and never saw my mini mustang again😅 got a new one now

[@BradyPhotgraphy]

You're grounded for 30 days. Also you must write an essay on the importance of knowing and adhering to the flight level known as "The deck"

[@Amahoser]

Easy repair at least. Replace the flap hinges and the control horns. Use some Dubro hinges and it'll be stronger than stock.

[@ianmbaker]

Good recovery, and only 75 bucks for a complete replacement wing and surfaces. :)

Good evening always great review cool jet

Awesome job on landing with the damaged you had👍Definitely your flying experience paid off!

All good Nate. You just need a new wing, should be under $100 bucks. Transfer the retracts and she is air worthy again. Nice job on the eventful landing 🛬🤯.

[@darkiee69]

New wing? He have all the parts. New servo arms, new CA hinges and new control rods and it'll be in the air again in no time at all.

[@duonesmith]

@@darkiee69 if you have ever flown a viper jet you would know that the wings can crack very easily due to the flexing while flying. You can glue it but the inevitable will happen.

[@geofkane2365]

Fantastic filming and a great aircraft. You both have great skill and lovely honest personalities.

[@rektrc1142]

I bought an airplane through an RC sailors link and it has been one of the best planes I've ever owned. The flex innovations mamba 10. It's a bad-ass 3-D biplane that screams like a bat out of hell. I did the 4S modification and it's an absolute beast. If things get sketchy just punch the throttle and head towards the sky and everything is fine. They have 6s version out now. I highly recommend.

[@darkiee69]

Sudden gust of gravity? Or did the runway jump up and hit you?

[@TheRcSaylors]

That’s it!! A sudden gust of gravity, lol! Love it! Going with that on all future crashes 💯👍🤣😂⚓️
