Gah 150, I'm impressed on such a small airframe. Hadn't even seen that puppy before, but ill be looking for one. 👍 Thanks for the post and flight data gents!
Had one for 6 or so months now. Best to just land it a bit hot. Once you get used to landing it hot she's a lot of fun. I walk away from or straight up pull away from most EDF's at my club. I like half throttle give or take in the turns. I've had a couple of "wobbles" trying to turn and being to slow. About the only time I completely kill power is down slope on a loop. I started with the 70MM FMS Avanti this spring and stepped into this next. I did fly a lot in my late 20's early 30's then kind of went on hiatus. 52 now and just got back into regular flying (at least once a week) last spring. You need to be on your game but its not a handful by any means. If I'm not feeling it when I go out she doesn't go up... But that is rare. I've got the camo Sundowner scheme with an Spectrum AR6 stabilized receiver. 4000/4500 mAh is enough, 5000 mAh no significant improvement and you will probably notice the weight in handling. I love seeing other people fly them almost as much. Thanks guys.
I just got this Camo version and thanks for the flying tips. I saw a buddy of mine tip stall on a right turn to the runway and it went right into the ground!! I won’t make that mistake. Does it need a stabilizer receiver?
@@mrnickkk I am thinking about just putting a sport receiver (no gyros) in mine for the 2023 season. But I did fly with a gyro this year. So as to your question, given the high wing loading (tip stalls), like I said keep your speed up in turns (at least half throttle) and don't try turning out to soon after take off (get altitude and speed up) I think it will be fine. Search RUclips, you will find videos of guys flying this bird without gyros. Oh and landings, keep your speed up in landings, she will just plop on and you will loose gear doors if not... She is not a "glide in" bird. "Waste" the batteries practicing your landings. You WILL do go arounds mastering the correct power setting on finals. I would take gear doors off until you stop "slamming" it on. I lost 2 sets of gear doors before I smartened up... didn't put them back on until I started greasing my landings. You have to fly it into the ground not glide it.
The F-5 is a beast!!!!!! No one believes me when I told them that Mine was radared at 150mph with the older slower fms set up and over 160mph with the newer ones!!I have a brand new in box Swiss version while my ole beat up version has been flying since 2014!!!! The mirage is the fastest though with this one being a close second. Good job guys and keep these coming!!! Love the speed trials!!
i have been following this jet for months trying to find newer reviews with the updated motor and Esc and they all say the same thing..... stewped fast and difficult to land.... seems like you would agree... thank you for the great information
I want the F4 so bad but hesitating on it because of the elevator mods. But, this video right here making me forget all about the F4. I'm seriously thinking about getting the F5 just because of this video. Thanks for showing this. I might get the camo version. 👍
I've been flying this all stock. Zero problems. You have to remember you can mod any of these edf jets for more performance but not always nessary. I find it completely sufficient in It's stock status. Hope this helps!
Yeah i agree about the off camera commentary but we can't do anything about the loud mouths at the field lol we even let them know we're recording and they don't seem to care
I love your videos!!!! I can fly but you fly way better! I wanted to ask you about the HRB batteries, you mentioned that you liked them. I usually use Admiral Pro but wanted your opinion. Thanks Nick
That was awesome partner!!! My wife just got me this jet, I can fly but are there any tips to keep my maiden flight in one piece? I just subscribed to your channel looking forward to more of your videos. Thanks, Nick
Mine just arrived lastweek, but still keep it in its boxed😅🤭...just cause looked at your videos here,am feelin fraid of🤭. Also before ive ordered mine,ive heard that someone around my place is down-grade this same F5, to 70mm edf...he's weird.,tho😁

I’m in a waffle group on FB and have a chance to possibly win one. I will be choosing it if I do win.
I'll admit that this is the first time seeing this jet. I LIKE IT. Looks good and seems to fly great. Thanks for posting SIR 🇬🇧🇺🇲🕊️✌🏼🤩👍🏼🤙🏼
GREAT post! I love the F5.
The F5 is amazing and like flying a needle
How much was it? Where can I get one?
That is indeed cooking. T.J. Saved the day, good job on the cam and nice job flying. P.S. Don't forget to feed Jeff.👌
I knew she was fast but dannnnnnng! I need to put the GPS in mine! That thing lands hot, but dang she’s so much fun to fly!! 🙌🏼
I have one of these beauty's in the Camo. It turns heads at the club. I absolutely love the rush
WOW 150MPH WOW 🇺🇲👍🏼

Lol don't make me get the mirage again!!!!🤣🤣
@@RCPlaneReviewer i would love to see the soeed trial on a mirage with the new 9 blade inrunner!! 😜😜😜😜 I am sure that its not only me too!!
80mm? wow it even looked small with Bobby holding it. Those must be some rugged gear.
Those jokes are getting real tired sno.
@@RCPlaneReviewer Sorry Bobby, I'm an awful tease. Will cool it :)
Wish I could say that it was only the first time I forgot to put down landing gear.
Dannnnnng ! Good job keeping it under control
Thanks for the kind message
great flight sir

thank you for the great information
Absolutely glad I could help 🙏!! And thanks for watching!
That’s fast
Very very verrrrry fast

Lol so buying this plane .
Be ready for break neck speed!!!
I want to get this plane... but every video I have seen always says "thats hard to see" as it goes further away...
It gets small quick and not the easiest thing to see and keep up with
thanks for the good content - amazing flying! 😎🌄🚀.. off camara commentary was a bit annoying a times 😛
Yeah i agree about the off camera commentary but we can't do anything about the loud mouths at the field lol we even let them know we're recording and they don't seem to care
This plane is sexy.
I love your videos!!!! I can fly but you fly way better! I wanted to ask you about the HRB batteries, you mentioned that you liked them. I usually use Admiral Pro but wanted your opinion. Thanks Nick
I still belive the HRBs are a superior lipo..I have some 2 years old and still powering my high demand edf jets
150 mph.
Are you used gyro?
No I don't use gyros or expo

It's a nice flyer! Just very fast and set your flaps up properly, and it's a taned bird! You got this!!!
@@RCPlaneReviewer thanks captain!😎👍🏾
Glad to hear that, i will try the best💪🏾😁yeahhh
