It is nice to see these films at a reduced speed to 0.75 then they become much more realistic to the scale model and you see much better the aircraft's movements and how we can more easily learn to fly RC aircraft
As you can tell in the video I did have a gyro but you can also see I had the gyro off at times as well. The Cessna handled the wind well even without the gyro and I never felt like I didn't have total control.
My contact at FMS has received feedback from me and other reviewers. I'm guessing there will be a change for the next production run but not sure when that might be.
Nice to see a Rc Pilot with a light plane knowledgable enough to know there is no need for flaps on windy days thats a common mistake i always see Rc Pilots make and they stall and crash hard
Thanks for the comment. We had this conversation at the field on the day this video was shot. Agree, flaps not needed here and can actually cause issues instead of being beneficial.

i put soft foam tires on mine and it really cut down on that horrible hard plastic noise
I love scale models!
Better than a real Skylane--which won't do rolls, or fly inverted!😊❤
Looks like its handling the wind very well

Nice, how strong was the wind?
Gust were in the 15mph - 17mph range.
Why can’t they put soft rubber tires on these like FMS does with the PA-18 Super Cub and its balloon tires?

Even softer foam ones help alot from my experiance

@@KP-RCreviews Agree light weight foamies just dont need them half the time flying the airframe and the light weight is enough to slow them down
