FPV drone following a friend's plane
I forgot to ask what plane this was, but it was a twin motor, similar to a Umx Otter. This was impromptu flight I was just running some last minute errands and seen these guys out at the spot flying. I'm flying my cinewhoop style drone with DJI goggles.

    Here! FYI, I got a hair up my a$$ and I'm going to tailavons and Flaperons on the F35 before this thing even goes into the air. I'm never going to let setup (or lack there of) cause a crash again. My first plane was the F35, flew it twice with no issues, then the crash came when I was failing at doing mixing, and didnt undo all the changes. I don't know if I'll ever own a prop plane. I figure, start out on the hard stuff, survive, and build from there.

    I got one about a week ago and in spite of rainy weather have been able to get 3-4 flights in. She is a great flier but has one negative for ME... she flies faster than the UMX Timber EVO that I'm used to flying. With each flight I've been getting more comfortable with her but it's not a relaxed flight like I get with my Timber.

    Try to fly it closer to the camera. I'm thinking about buying the UMX Air Tractor. I like the 700mm size, and it seems like it's very visible and flies great. It'll be my fourth plane. I've got a Rage RC T-28, a Volantex Sport Cub 500, and an XK A260 Rare Bear. No simulators for me, but I'm a retired Commercial Pilot, Flight Instructor, & Flight Engineer. Thanks for the video, and keep em coming.

    I like that plane but not the noise it makes. That's a fail for me. There are way better sounding EDFs out there. The Habu 50 mm sounds pretty good and flies great. Same for the Arrows 50mm Viper. Thanks for the video. Subbed.

    One thing I've found on my UMX tail-draggers is that if I don't put something under the tailwheel to level the plane out when I power it up, the AS3X/SAFE will initialize with the slight nose up as level, and I end up having to push the nose down throughout the flight. I keep a plastic bowl in the car that is the right height to hold the tail up at level when prepping the planes to fly.

    Can't help but enjoy flying when the kinks are all smoothed out. The EVO is mostly wing, so you're constantly watching the wind. The UMX P51 Voodoo on the other hand, will do acro in 15mph winds. It's a beast! You might consider adding one to your stables.

    The Citation is real looker, especially at dusk. I think it has the same hardware in it that the A-10 does, and it likes to go FAST. My Citation needs replacing, she's done too many cartwheel landings. I should probably stop sipping while I fly....... Probably

    The Air Tractor is a legit night flyer, but I gotta say, my favorite PM micro flyer is the UMX Twin Otter. 2 brushless motors, a full suite of LEDs, handles like it's on rails, & powered by a 800mah 1S battery. Cop one. You'll love it. Trust.

    The Tractor is a good flying micro. If you wanna change up the aesthetic, consider making the entire top black, with wide vinyl tape, all the way back to the vertical stab. It's definitely a different look.

    I know this video is a few months old, but I just got myself a UMX TT as my first RC plane. I've had it out 3 or 4 times and haven't crashed it yet. It looks pretty neat puttering around in the pattern. I think I need to adjust the elevator pushrod...mine doesn't go anywhere near that fast. You stopped flying after 5 minutes...my timer goes off after 5 minutes, but I can fly for almost 20 minutes before the battery cut-out stops powering the motor. Do you know what is going on? I like your channel. Unpretentious and you know how to fly!

    • @thercaviator177
      @thercaviator177 Год назад

      Hi thanks for the compliment and welcome to my channel ☺️..yes, flying 20 minutes is KILLING your battery cells. It's generally accepted to fly about 5-6 minutes then land and recharge. That way you get lots of uses outta your batts. Otherwise, in lipo batteries, if the cells get discharged past a certain point, they'll no longer be able charge back up and hold a consistent charge. So yes, that's why I fly for about 5 minutes then land. Good luck to you. And questions feel free to ask!!!

    • @clean1566
      @clean1566 Год назад

      I get 8-9 minutes of flight, and the battery still comes back to rest at 3.6-3.7 per cell, which doesn't harm the cells. I used to get 5-6 minutes from the old 2S batteries in the original UMX Timber. Always use a battery tester after every flight, as a habit. Really miss the low voltage alarm in the old 2S planes. The 3S TT doesn't chirp anymore:-(@@thercaviator177

    I’ve got one of these and it flys great. Two things - CG is way off with that 3S so far back and did you reset the rudder trim after the mechanical adjustment? With such a small, light plane the control surfaces all have to be aligned perfectly. Check all of them carefully. You’re a good pilot to handle that situation - several situations!
