- Well with this flight I completely abandoned CG or, forgot how to land , or Aliens had abducted my senses but I had some really bad landings!!!
But she held up pretty good and the Dynam gear still work.

You showed us real world RC flying - you had fun, and so did we- and we all walked away. Nice flying! Not exactly a 'first trainer' plane. And it's gorgeous :)
Glad you enjoyed it! I put a coat of polyacrylic min wax on her.
I'm so glad you didn't edit out those bad landings. As a new guy I need to know which planes to avoid until sometime later in the hobby. I'll be sticking with the high wingers for now. 😊
I never edit out the bad. Its helps us learn.
great looking plane !!! ..have a good one...
Thanks, you too!
The plane pusher is at it again. LOL. Great vid and take care my friend. Rick
Thanks, you too! I got the FW 190 on the way also!
Your takeoffs are excellent in this difficult ground-handling bird. Good job.
Your landings should be an exercise in planting your gear, then controlling your rollout - then sticking the tail.
Thanks for the tips! I subded. Cute dogs with the jerky!
Thanks for the tip about using a bit of speed 👍. Have you seen the toprc Swift edf glider. Bangood have got it on special. It looks like a lot of fun.
I will check it out
@@FatGuyFliesRC I think that the offer is only here in Australia. I am fighting temptation but I am loosing 😂
Beautiful landing at 7:43. 👍🇬🇧
Thanks so much!!
I just got my 109 built. I don't plan on flying her yet though.
Why, weather bad there?
@@FatGuyFliesRC No I am getting into trainer planes first. I work nights and things have been kind of messy with work and events outside of work and the schedule of my technicians and aircraft loving friends. I have also been working on getting head trackers. This whole RC project buildup of mine has been pretty crazy. We tore apart a DX18 and made it mode 3 so I can fly it. A lot of successes right now. My "air crew" built my plane for me because I didn't even have time.
Good airplane my friend love it saludos ✈
Glad you enjoyed it
I got my new controls working for mode 3 but need to adjust the throttle stick. I am having to apply too much pressure to make the rotor stop spinning(or throttle cut). I am worried about getting into fixed wing planes a little bit because I hope the trim being way off at maiden flights doesn't cause me issues.
From what i gathered you have had to mechanically adjusted the gymbal for you to fly Helis in mode 3. I am afraid that may transfer to the fixed wing when you try to fly it in mode 3 also. I am at a loss now as to how to advise other that get another transmitter and learn to fly planes solely on it in mode 2. But your left handed so now , i dont know ....sorry!!
@@FatGuyFliesRC You didn't understand my statement. It was mostly a success. You have to first set the mode in the radio. Then you must calibrate it then you can adjust the mechanical setting. It works I just have to fix the throttle from sticking when at 0. I just have to apply pressure to make the throttle stop. My statement was that I am afraid of flying fixed wing aircraft now upon maiden flight because I am afraid if the trim is too far bad that I can crash because of starting bad trim. The sticking throttle at bottom throttle is the only issue I have. Everything else works.
@@larsulrich3356 Ok I think I have it and I have a possible fix for your throttle issue. assign a throttle cut off switch. its a safety thing you should do on all helis and planes any how.
This link is for a DX9 but is the same for all Spektrum Transmitters. ruclips.net/video/5wHQIVZ5A_0/видео.html I hope this solves your issue.
@@FatGuyFliesRC It has a throttle cut assigned. It didn't do that when I had default controls. It needs to be adjusted for the new controls.
Is there a way I can increase the channel amount to my radio transmitter and/or receivers?
No sorry they are set physically. 4 channel receiver means just that 4 channel only. Same with Transmitters no way to electronically or physically do it. Thats why I always suggest(if you serious about the hobby) get the biggest and best quality Transmitter you can afford! One that you can grow with! I always recommend at LEAST 6 channels preferably more!
@@FatGuyFliesRC Yeah I got an 8 channel receiver and transmitter. I bought the radio because it allows me to fly mode 3 gimbal stick settings and I can't seem to find any other higher amount channel radio transmitters that allow me to do that.
Which do you like more, the 109 or the 190? They both look really nice
Thats a VERY hard question!!! They are so similar. But If I could choose only one it would be the 190. Its only a little easier to land.
@@FatGuyFliesRC Thank you! I do like the looks of the 190. Thanks for the great videos
Have you seen the freewing p.15 64mm? Seems like a fun little jet that's affordable. Great video and I'm loving that 109!
The Lipish? I have it. Its been crashed so many times its unflyable now. But a great little jet but you have to be quick on the sticks and chunk it up when hand launching.
Any suggestions for an 8 channel receiver for a Spektrum DX8E radio for flight controls? Any suggestions for gyro stabilizers as well?
Not for an 8 channel. But Motion Rc sells a great 6 channel that has a great gyro and self leveling built in. Its called the Admiral stability pulse receiver and here is a link. www.motionrc.com/collections/rc-aircraft-receivers/products/admiral-rx600sp-6-channel-dsmx-compatible-receiver-with-6-axis-stabilizer
Question, why do you need 8 channels? I have a DX9 Transmitter with 9 channels but I never need more than 6 or 7. Unless the plane has more functionality than the basic throttle, elevator, aileron, rudder, flaps, and gear. then a 6 channel is all you need.
@@FatGuyFliesRC I wanted the DX8E because of the gimbal mode switch changer on the back of the radio. I am a southpaw/stick mode 3 type of pilot. Most radios don't support this.
@@larsulrich3356 Then that explains it then. But Motion RC with their admiral receiver make up to 10 channel receivers but you will need to add a gyro to them like the Hobby Eagle GYRO that they also sell.
@@FatGuyFliesRC Interesting. I may need your help and experience with some of this stuff cause I am brand spanking new. I still cannot change/bind the gimbals to preference on my radio yet. I also bought the radio because the DX8E specializes in rotor aircraft from my understanding. You think I can add a gyro outside of the normal receiver somehow by a module? Maybe you just explained what I am looking for to me by your last statement?
@@larsulrich3356 Ok on the back of the DX8e you can select what mode you want. Here is a link to a short video that explains each mode : ruclips.net/video/LiroXnpghIA/видео.html Now the Admiral receivers that do not have built in gyros are all of them except the Admiral Stability plus one.
But let me stop they and tell me what plane are you looking to fly with your DX8e?
It wont transfer over from the heli because I can just save or change the settings. The heli is it's own receiver as well and my fixed wing planes will have their own. I can just change to a different plane. It should be fine.
Oh ok I just remember nothing is saved in a receiver other than a bind lock to a transmitter until its rebound again. I was under the idea that you had opened the back of the transmitter and mechanically changed the gimbal of the sticks. In that case I have no idea if those changes will be in place as you switch modes or switch to different rc vehicles (plane,glider,drone, heli) . Its just territory I have never explored since I have always used mode 2 and know nothing else.
Try to always keep 20% throttle to land.....to avoid to fall out in tarmac...
Yeah I keep switching between EDF, High Wings and warbirds so the rules adjust a little for each. Practice is needed.
Any ideas where I can get extra fuselage guns for it? I lost mine.
No but I would cut some small sections from small carbon spar pieces to replace them.
@@FatGuyFliesRC I found some FW190 spare plastic parts including guns. I think they're the exact same guns for convenient manufacturing reasons. I am going to cheat haha. I kept my 109 in a hot garage in a box and it may have affected the adhesive that held the guns to the fuselage.
@@larsulrich3356 Glad you have an answer.
I have the same plane but I bought weak batteries, What batteries did you use in this video?
3600 HRB 4s here is a link. www.amazon.com/HRB-3600mAh-Battery-Airplane-Traxxas/dp/B06XKS5LSJ/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=HRB+3600+4s&qid=1609907009&sr=8-1
Also I subded, please sub back and lets get some vids posted I would love to see them!!
@@FatGuyFliesRC I’ll do my best, thank you!
What kind of battery does the Dynam BF 109 take?
A 4s I use from a 2700 4s up to a 3600 4s
@@FatGuyFliesRC Is it possible to get a bigger battery for the plane? I am going to be powering my DJI air unit with it as well so I want to make sure I have enough juice.
One of the hardest to land. I’ve got two 109s but have flown one time. Done the same thing, just got to fly it more 👍🏻✌🏻🖖🏻😃🎄
Practice , Practice, Practice
The problem appears to be the same as with the Dynam Tempest. CG is way too close to the mains on the landing gear. On the Tempest, the LG are, literally, dead on the CG. This makes nose overs on landing all but inevitable. I installed EFlite gear in my Tempest, angled and rotated so they retract flat but when extended they are well forward of the CG. problem solved. Dynam makes great flying planes, but you've got to be willing to fix the details yourself.
Yes they should be sold as some modding needed.
Whats your battery specifically?
Ok i was using a HRB 2600 4s and I have flown that bird several more times with the same battery and it flew wonderfully. What I needed to do (as I have discovered) is for the smaller 4s need to push ALL the way in towards the nose until you hit the fire wall. In this video I did not push in far enough even after I readjusted hit. oh and here is a link to the HRB battery: www.amazon.com/HRB-2600Mah-Battery-Airplane-Quadcopter/dp/B0875L5VTJ/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=hrb+4s+lipo+battery+2600&qid=1610085841&sr=8-1
Also I subded to you.
@@FatGuyFliesRC ty I just needed a good light battery with good discharge
Is it easy to land without using a gyro or flap?
It can be a little hard to land with the gear so close together . The plane has no flaps. easy to fly, landing just takes practice.
@@FatGuyFliesRC Is the landing gear weak because there is no cushion?? I'm a beginner, don't I recommend it?
How fast is this plane?
I am not sure in MPH but it is actually on the slower side for war birds. Very manageable and stable. Not entirely easy to land on grass it will nose over pretty easy.
is this plane compatible with spektrum radios? (DX8E)
Its not the plane its the receiver you put in the plane. In this case I have a Lemon rx stabilized receiver that is Spektrum compatible. But say I was to put in a Futaba receiver I would then need a Futaba or compatible transmitter. My setup on all my planes is this : I use 1 DX9 transmitter and all my planes are controlled by it. They all have Spektrum or Spektrum compatible receivers in them. My DX9 can control up to 250 planes. I believe your Dx8 can control up to 50 if memory serves. Hope this cleared things up for you. I subded to your channel.
@@FatGuyFliesRC I thought that's what it was but I wanted to make sure that everything else was compatible with the receiver. I bought a Dynam 109 and picked up a spektrum DX8E radio. I wanted the DX8E for stick mode reasons because I fly with left stick pitch and roll in games and sims.
@@larsulrich3356 What receiver did you get for the 109? And is this your first rc plane?
@@FatGuyFliesRC it is my first plane but I bought a fixed pitch chopper before i and still waiting for my radio so I don't think it comes with a receiver but need to get one if it doesn't. I did a little bit of research on the subject. I know the 109 isn't really made for me to fly yet at my experience level and I know about the issues with landing and take off.
@@FatGuyFliesRC I don't have one yet. I ordered in the radio just recently and still awaiting it's arrival. I thought maybe I better wait until I have the radio first and make sure there isn't a receiver that comes with it so I wont spend extra money. Perhaps you can give me pointers and tips. I am going to start flying my fixed pitch Blade 120S and I will probably practice on a practice prop plane first before flying my 109 baby. I have been looking at some of your footage and notice you had a battery weight distribution issue. I will take not to that. What kind of radio or radios do you have?
what is the level of the plane beginner or advanced
This would be an intermediate level. You would need some low wing experiance.
Do you use battle.net, steam or origin? Skype? I hate youtube comment section. Is there a way I can contact you?
Email. gregoryglasco@gmail.com that way you can attach pictures also.
Is it a good plane for a beginner?
No a high wing is better. I suggest the Mini Apprentice. Here is a link: www.horizonhobby.com/product/apprentice-s-2-1.2m-rtf-with-safe/HBZ31000.html
Starting with a low wing warbird is like getting your drivers license and the first car is a turbo charged sports car.
@@FatGuyFliesRC okay thanks 🙂👍
Tough bird.
Has to be for my landings!!!!
With gyro??
Yes, as3x style gyro. But plane flies great without a gyro.
Where are the cg points? 4s 2200 2600 3000 all without weight?
Should be about inch and a half in from leading edge of wing. You want this bird to be slightly nose heavy to level. NEVER tail heavy.
@@FatGuyFliesRC 👍
I have a 2200 3000 battery. If I send it to the front, does the CG fit well?
@@user-gp4xd7xc5t no just put them all the way forward. anything bigger move back just a little.
@@FatGuyFliesRC Yes I understand 2600 3000 No problem? Thank you for your reply.
Nice outing we all have on days, off days, and on and off days. Warbirds don't care for STOL'ing, Jeff in LA USA
You got that right! No sometimes i forget low wing means more speed.
What do they mean they can "connect flight controllers?" The statement of the video starts when he talks about the micro USB port. ruclips.net/video/Rf_m_LemW3U/видео.html
That refers to the old Buddy Box System. That's where an instructor will connect his Transmitter to the Student's transmitter via a long wire and can take control of the students airplane before he crashes it. Its now done wirelessly on most of the newer Dx , Ix, and Nx Spektrum radios.
@@FatGuyFliesRC I That is what I thought it was for.
@@FatGuyFliesRC I thought that is what it was about. I just want the ability to customize my sticks and interface the way I want with a 20 channel receiver or more. I want as many bells and whistles as I can get out of a radio. Unfortunately the radio I got only supports 8 total channels.
dynam planes landing gears are at CG, so they tend to nose when landing
YeahI got some practice in store.
where is the swastika???????
That would make it more scale.
You're rotating at too low a ground speed.
Yeah I need more Practice.
@@FatGuyFliesRC Actually I think you are a very good pilot. We all have those days. I've been in the hobby for 45 years and I am still nothing more than a "Sunday Flier" pilot!
