How To Use Any Battery On The SAB ILGoblin Pro!
Sad. I love this helicopter, i just crashed my raw 500, it was easier crash than this however, it was total lose. 😢
U need have soldering and desoldering experience
I’m just waiting until your fly it over the highway
Oh, NO!! Thanks for sharing the bad with the good!!
Thank you for watching! I will always share all of it no matter if it’s good or bad.
This has nothing to do with the video I'm a spektrum user I recently started using the radiomaster tx16s after noing how to use it i think the radio itself is garbage edge tx in itself is great can you mitigate the deadband on a for example omp m2 with spektrum I do enjoy your content crashing always sucks thank you for everything you put into this crazy great hobby
Argh!! I appreciate you showed this. It reminds me that we're all human and even Pro's like you can crash and have a bad day. I'm into the hobby long enough now to REALLY understand that everyone has those days. There were times over the last 2 years I've been flying that I just wanted to quit, sell all my Heli's and just continue flying planes. I've always come back. I haven't and won't let crashes defeat me now. Just had another crash with my S2 a week ago. I was practicing my inverted and doing very well. I knew it was a very BRIGHT day, and I was keeping it out of the sun. Well, I drifted a little too far and all of a sudden, WHITE OUT. I was in the sun, and couldn't even see the heli, much less what orientation it was in for about 4-5 seconds. But the time I got it back into view, there was about a foot of altitude before the ground. Knew there wasn't anything I could do, and just cut the throttle. Thankfully not much damage. Snapped 2 servo horns, popped off and stripped a washout arm, and that was it.
One thing I will always be real, and I am the same way in person as I am on video. I will show everything. I’m good to bad no matter what I film almost every flight just in case I crashed because I want to showcase that. Too many people only post perfect Videos and you will never see them crash a helicopter even though they do! So I’ve been flying helicopters for 20 years now. I would get really mad and crash almost every single flight and I would give up for a while and then I would get back into it and I just felt like all I was doing was crashing and not progressing. I was trying to push myself too fast too far. So three years ago when I got into helicopters and I told that I was going to start all over from the beginning. From the basic hovering and orientations into 3-D, even though I knew how to do it, but I wanted to put more time into the basics and that made me so much better pilot than I ever asked For. Sometime we need to take a step back to go forward! I’m glad I stuck with it and didn’t completely give up because I absolutely love flying helicopters and the hobby
How long to reach this skill level ?Love to see stick cam , doing that! Amazing skill!
Great flight buddy!! Rebuild agin!! I tell myself that everytime. Your doing wayyy better than me!! I dream of flying like that.
I’m off to a slow start as well and watching these guys fly while I can hardly learn basic orientations amazes me!
The best part about flying helicopters is no matter how bad the crashes is they can always be rebuilt to brand new! Everybody progresses at a different rate and I have been doing this a long time lol you will get there! Just stick with it I promise!
So one thing I learned a long time ago was to not push or try to learn too fast the point helicopters take a ton of work and time. Learning your basics is so incredibly important and fundamental to all of your flying as you progress.
Get a drone, no point in a helo any more, get guys look how slow i can go lol lame af
Drones are for people who can’t fly helicopters! how fast is your slow drone?
RIP
WOW. you were flying that so well. Super confident. Sorry to see you had a mishap. Hardy heli. Super surprised you only got away with light damage. I'm sure your have it back in the air in no time. All the best jeff. Keep the great videos coming. Safe flying buddy 👌 💙
Thank you! I greatly appreciate it, unfortunately we all screw up and dumb dumb. Parts were ordered that day. They actually just showed up today and I will start rebuilding this weekend. Very light damage it held up a lot better than I thought.
dang, that thing is sturdy!
Sure is! Very surprised
Out of all your you tube flights I’ve seen that was the most aggressive flying in a tight space you’ve done.🔥🏆🔥 You find that shrapnel from the crash?😂
Thank you! I can fly pretty aggressive and hard lol I just choose the slower big air 3-D as my flying style. Yes the blade was about 75 yards away lol
Awesome you share the not so great moments, but that little 420 took the hit well. You're really quick on the hold switch that's for sure. Mine would be beating itself to death for a second or 3 by the time I shut it down. Hopefully there's not too much damage past the canopy, blades and links. Epic heli!
I will always share the crashes and the bad the screw ups, etc. that’s part of being real and something I always wanted to do is to show that I am not perfect. I do mess up and stuff happens lol so I actually fly with my finger on the motor off switch, because I learned a long time ago, the faster you can get that motor off the less damage you will do. The damage wasn’t bad at all! Blades, blade, grip, arms, servo horns, canopy and one frame side.
Well Sheet…loved that comment. You are definitely calmer than I would have been. Fix and move on.
It’s all part of the hobby! I learned a long time ago to not be upset or mad after a crash! They can always be rebuilt
Part of the hobby
It sure is!
Sorry you crashed.... I couldn't really see it though. Would be nice if your camera zoomed in so I could actually watch you fly.. but hey I heard it. The sound is good 👍
All part of it! Check your RUclips settings. Because it is very visible and very clear video you can see the model the entire flight!
Damn, man. RIP 420. Sorry for your loss my bro.
Thanks buddy! It’s all good, parts are here. Just have to put it back together.
The 420 size machines take a beating
It sure does! Love this thing!
THE MASTER CRASH! now i feel better about crashing ALL OF THE DAM TIME😅
Can I ask you which is the weight of this model with the battery? Nice flight anyway !
Hey man, I just sent you 50 bucks on P pal to put some new blades on that baby. All the stuff you have taught and helped me with, you've saved me more than that!. You keep me motivated to trudge on!! Thank you, serious. Peace!!!
I would say Grandpa owes you a new 420. As field owner, he did not privide an adequate flight station for heli pilots thus causing you to go nose in. Those trees in the background should have been cut down, house moved away from flight station, etc. You know, the little things that go into field maintenance😂 All jokes aside, i hate to see anyone crash but i feel really bad for you because you fly so good! And i know how much you love that 420! If you dont want it anymore now that its broken, ill take it off your hands😅 Keep uploading the great content Jeff, your channel is kicking butt!!
You know, you might be right! He did not do good field maintenance lol we all screw up and dumb thumb. It’s part of the hobby! I just wasn’t feeling it this flight if that makes sense I couldn’t get connected into my flying and it was very sloppy, I got too low going into a Backward hurricane, I tried to bail out, and I was not high enough! I do love this 420! Has over 300 flights on it and this is the first time I’ve ever crashed it so I’ve been doing pretty good. All the parts actually just showed up today so I can get it rebuilt and it really wasn’t that bad.
Can't wait for the close up damage assessment & repair video. Always good education. Jeff will have that fixed up in no time.
Thank you! The crash wasn’t that bad. The parts actually just showed up today. I can do a rebuild video. It held up actually very well.
Hey man that was Great flying and no better heli to crash than that DD. I have crashed that heli so many times! As long as the servo's and one way hub make it, they aren't too bad $ wise. But hey, let's talk about the tight space work!! and I know thats tight cause camera's make everything look far away. RT blades my FAV. but using Vulcans rite now. You go man, that was exciting!! Peace!!
Thanks buddy! Yes, it definitely looks like a lot more space than there really is. It is a very tough helicopter and it held up extremely well! I do love this thing and after over 300 flights. It’s about time I crashed it lol
Dumb thumbed it!
Yes sir!
That sucks Jeff! You think you lost orientation?
wow, you can see what quality is. a set of new leaves and new waves and on we go, respect 😮 belongs to the RC hobby 🤟👍
Thank you! Yes, SAB is on top for sure!
Jeff, ouch the helicopter 🚁 made some sounds that you don’t like to hear.
It sure did! You never want to hear that! lol
one thing us heli guys cant count on is a giggle from our wives after a crash ugg 😵💫
Every time! lol
Never a happy day to crash. But you were pushing your boundaries by flying on such a confined space and doing pretty good. I would say that is a good way to crash, as much as it sucks. And you crashed a small heli so the repair bill shouldn't be catastrophic. Pretty sure bearings are toast on the head, but from the looks of it I think that might be it. Sounded like it hit under power but I think you were quick enough on killing the throttle, which is something I NEVER do and end up with much more damage. Thanks for sharing. Too cold for me to fly :)
Thank you! I appreciate it, I actually was not feeling the flight. I just couldn’t get connected. It was very sloppy and I dumb thumb it lol Believe it or not the shafts are perfect no bends. The bearings everything is perfect! It’s just a set of servo, arms, blade, grip, arms, blades, canopy, and one side frame. It held up extremely well. Yes! I am very big on hitting throttle hold almost instantly. I actually keep my finger on the throttle hold switch the entire time I’m flying.
That sucks 🤙🚁💯👊
I really does! New parts and fly again!
Damn! I didn't expected that from you! Anyway, shit happens in a man's life once in a while! Part of the game! Shit!
I’m human and crashed too! Lol they are far in between, but I still do it. All part of the hobby.
OK Jeff, Here’s my breakdown: 1. You’ve proven you really are human and can make mistakes 2. Your percentage of successful flights to crashes is unbelievable as you very rarely crash 3. Did you crash on purpose 4. That does stink to see this 5. At least you stay positive and calm afterwards Anyway, I do enjoy your content and wish I had a fraction of your building and flying skills! 👍🏻🚁
Thank you! I greatly appreciate the kind words. We all screw up and I am human! Lol I always post every crash because I want people to see that I am human and make mistakes and I did not do it on purpose lol
Oh no mate. But you will make it like new.
Dang sorry to see that man!
That’s OK! All part of the hobby. Rebuild and fly again.
Nice flight right up until. Get getting at it. Thank you for the realism.
Thank you! Greatly appreciate it. I will always post trash videos, no matter what.
It was a nice crash though, smooth and elegant! 👍
It really was lol
Bah, fix and be back in air!!
Glad it wasn't a horrifying loss. Good luck finding switch blades. Let me know what you ended up getting. I know I keep crying about it, but seriously its coming on 5 months now. Are they a dead company?
Ps. Not sure if I should thumbs up because I do it to every video and comment for the last 6 months....or thumbs down as lamentation for your loss.
That looked like one of my flights, the ending, not the fancy stuff😂❤. Just proves you are human Jeff 😮. Crashing sure s*cks
We all crash! I know everybody thinks I am perfect, but I am far from it lol thank you I appreciate it!
Hey at least it wasn’t the turbine! Still sucks, though.
OH DAMN! but so fixable !! That background is hard to see!
Dude I love my m7 POM dampers for the win
@@Adean6403 I’m excited to fly this thing! I would have gone POM if it was mine.
110% the best channel for anything Heli related! What an amazing family man. You can hear the excitement in this family’s voices. Kudos Jeff
Good morning Jeff I just contacted my raw 420C brain 2 with SPM4651T DSMX SRXL2 and one satellite! So I followed your steps all bind light is on both receivers! But in my transmitter (spektrum nx7) show me warnings (esc is platinum v4 80a) ESC 0v 0A 0 C And esc bib constantly How can i fix (probably i need to setup something )? Thanks in advance
Sold my Raw 580 to fund my 700 Ronan Cobra. Now I’m itching for another 500 size to use 5000mah packs to try to learn 3D with. Would you recommend buying this or another Raw 580? Nice flight.
@@flyboywbl Thank you! Both are great models. The RAW 580 is still my favorite heli! So I would say RAW 580 but if you want something different then go with the RS5!
@ thanks. Is there an advantage to using full size or mini servos?
@ full size will definitely have more torque but mini is really all you need unless your running 12s and a hard core smack 3D pilot
@ ok, appreciate it. Gonna stick with 6S.
@ then mini servos are perfect! I’ve been switching to Theta servos and they are great!
Un motor así con una transmisión,podría mover una bicicleta??😁😁
Yup, pulled the trigger today on a new vbar touch with an included neo. Tired of trying to dick around with a Radiomaster
That’s crazy go nuts
