Nice.i notice the cub on the shelf behind,I just built one after it sat in the box for three years.Simple build,but the stickers unstick themselves after a day or two.Got the Cessna coming and its pre printed.
@@CliffHarveyRCPlanes could only find the min rc run in car park , then found your maiden , it wasnt new slang , to old for that *hit , nice plane havent looked up the price yet, as im a magpie with rc ,buy it first then never find the time to build , moulded a 600 mm rigger , (not built yet )and have a Pug DLG still in box .
@CliffHarveyRCPlanes I'm new to RC planes and have built a few top wing trainer planes. I started with 4 prop drones, which was my stepping stone. I really like smaller ww2 war birds. I have a ww1 JN-4 Jenny that I also need to get cracking on. I like foam with some balsa/wood builds.
@robertgribbin6444 Hi Robert, it's really good to know that new modellers are finding the hobby through dones. Smaller WW2 aircraft are perhaps the hardest to fly due to their inherent instability but having said that with as3x and safe they're not too bad. The Jenny is a classic which should be a lot easier to fly, I would concentrate on that one first, cheers 👍
Awesome video, cliff. Thanks so much for all the great tips. I cannot find that image of the Red Arrows pilots on Google search, but I could swear you had a link here yesterday which is now gone! Can you please send link again?@@CliffHarveyRCPlanes
Cliff it should be fun to fly, I see Spektrum RX, when I watched the part one I was messing with batteries. Looks like you have lots of thrust for some fun zoom zoom zoom, Jeff in LA USA
Hi Cliff, First thing THANK YOU for your post, it was great to watch you're a great teacher and made it fun to watch. I have just bought one and plan on getting right in. I have a question where did you find the pilots as I agree with you that all RC planes need a pilot inside the cockpit and yours looks the part. Would you mind posting where you got yours from? Many thanks in advance Romano Expat from Bramhall Cheshire now in Palm Beach Florida USA Cheers.
Hi Mike, yes, 30mm, (Part One, 25 seconds in) just as the Red Arrow enters the shot lol, no one's mentioned that yet, took me ages to do as well!, cheers
Nice wee kit, just a shame the stripes don't line up very well, lets it down a little given how accurate the rest of it is, or maybe it was a printing error on that day, who knows, but the more I watch the more I can see I'm going to be buynig a few of these kits! :)
A great series of build videos and I've seen the ones of you flying it. Looks like a great kit and 'plane. However it was badly let down by the white flashes not lining up, several of them didn't and it sticks out like a sore thumb. Something that you definitely should pass on to the manufacturer.
Hi Tony, yep, already passed the graphics problem on, also the lack of a pilot and short aileron carbon rods, all of which they plan to address, thanks for watching and commenting, cheers 👍
Hi Robert, that's disappointing, do you think it happened in manufacture or packing? The box is really strong so I'm guessing it did. Get in touch with MinimumRC on their website, they may need photographs, and explain the problem. They also have a Facebook page you could use but try the direct approach first 🤔 Let me know how you get on 👍
Pour boiling water out of a glass measuring cup (or something similar with a spout) over the foam -- that will pop out the crease. If hesitant, test on scrap foam.👍
lol, we made the same mistake! got mine a few days ago, built it and maidened it, but realised THE DUCT IS OFF CENTER apparently we werent supposed to glue it to the side panel XD
@@CliffHarveyRCPlanes also, would like to know if you have been facing issues with the receiver suddenly losing control when the battery is low I've only got like 30s flight time before the thing shuts off and motor just keeps running
@@CliffHarveyRCPlanes another transmitter dosent seem to work..my batteries are about 3 months old I timed it, and apparently it can only last 2 min at full throttle B4 it starts shutting off. What's your flight time?
Hi. I have a frsky x18 and bought the 3rd Generation Micro reciever from them but not sure how to get it to bind like. I got it with the d16 frsky option but no luck. Any chance any of you might be able to help me?
Hi Devin, I'm not a binding expert so sorry I can't suggest anything except asking your question on the Frsky RC Groups page, you might get some pointers there 🤔 www.rcgroups.com/frsky-877/

That can be a problem with stickers, especially old ones, pre-printed is the way forward, cheers
I'm excited to see it flying!
And see it flying you will, cheers
This video completes the build, I think she looks spectacular now I'm dreaming of the maiden, cheers 👍
Beautiful little plane.
It sure is Chris 👍
just watched the car park run, expect it to sell out fast, awesome little bird
What does that mean Paul, not sure I follow?

@@mariebaxter473 I see, it really is easy to buy lots of stuff and then flounder as to which one to build first, thanks for watching, cheers
Looks great. Love the Hawk, one of my favourites. Nice job Cliff, hope you’re keeping well.
I am thanks Tim, she's going to look great against a blue sky 👍
very nice ! have a great maiden 👍
Thanks 👍
Really turned out pretty! MRC has this kind of model figured out! I look forward to watching the maiden!
They do don't they Adam, well we know how it goes now 😁
What a fab micro EDF looks fantastic!! Well built Cliff, judging by the MinimumRC promo video it flies amazing too 😀👍
Thanks Ian, yes, it's a good promo 👍
Very nice, glad I found your channel. This is a nice hobby build. Thanks again. Robert.
Thanks for watching Robert, what sort of models are you interested in?

Great looking model, and thank you for the build! Would love to see a video of it in action!
Thanks Ben, she's a beauty all right, maiden video coming very soon, cheers 👍
Love the build Cliff. Can you put a link for the twin pilot image you found and used?
Hi Martin, if you Google 'Red Arrows Pilots', click on images and keep scrolling down you'll find the picture, email me if you can't, cheers
Awesome video, cliff. Thanks so much for all the great tips. I cannot find that image of the Red Arrows pilots on Google search, but I could swear you had a link here yesterday which is now gone! Can you please send link again?@@CliffHarveyRCPlanes

DSM2 rx Jeff, I know they work with all my gear, cheers
That’s a really nice build Cliff, looks like she will be fun zooming around. Pilots engineers always were Blue overalls. 👍🏻
Thanks Chris, didn't know that, cheers
Interesting and challenging build. I guess each material has its own particularities. Thx for sharing!
Interesting and enjoyable Andrew, now I've put a few of these together it's nice to be able to pass on building tips, cheers
Can't wait to see it fly
And see it you will 👍
Nice one cliff nearly as good as mine lol looking forward to the test flights crack on
Later today Barry, cheers 👍
Looking forward to the maiden.
Hi Bob, you won't have to wait long, cheers 👍
Nice build Cliff!
Thanks Chris, the online instructions are very good with lots of pictures but it's the little tips I've learnt which are worth passing on, cheers 🙂

What a lovely little thing!
Is it a 30mm edf? I missed you saying

I have given MinimumRC feedback regarding the stripes so they are aware of the problem, cheers 👍
How did you get those aircraft to fly across the screen? Liked it. ❤
Well the plane doesn't move ...the screen does 🤔👍

I can't honestly say it's made a lot of difference 👍🤔
@@CliffHarveyRCPlanes yea, I only realised it as I glued on the top and bottom panels XP

@@iammeobviously6815 No issues like that, have you tried batteries that are pretty new? Or a different transmitter (clutching at straws!)
