Well presented John & your little helper! Love flying mine... in fact both the Mustang P51D & this one as the fly identical. Especially love the gyro. I hope the make more like this.
Helpful video - thanks. Do you know which way the label on the Gyro should face? Up towards the sky - or down towards the ground? There is a problem on the current production models of the Skyraider at the moment and I can't get the information out of Hobbyking! Many thanks if you can advise.
I could not get mine to balance at 55mm C/G using the recommended Turnigy 800mah or 850mah batteries, in the end I had to add 20grams of weight to the bottom of the Cooling intake - how did you get yours to balance - I like watching the videos on how these things go together but no one seems to have any issues with getting the C/G in the correct place - and not many show how best to do this yet to fly it is one of the most important things to get right... any advice or help is most welcome.
I just put the battery as far forward as I could and it was pretty close, unless I measured wrong. But thats also why I said a 1000mah pack is better for this plane, to get it to balance.
Great job but it would have been very helpful if you could show how to set up the gyro on the radio. I can't find any info on how to do that. If you could let me know I'll subscribe for sure!
@@JohnVHRC Yes I saw that but I was looking for more specific instruction as what switch is the best to use and how to test it to make sure it works, etc. Is connecting a cable between the Rx and stabilizer all that is necessary? What Rx port do you use?
@@danreynolds8028 @7:50 I show what each mode does. You need a channel not in the first 4.. So say, a gear switch, or a flap switch will do. It really doesnt matter, any channel you can switch with the flip of a switch. As shown in the video, I use my gear switch, so thats ch5. Hope that helps

Thanks for the feedback!
Can you do a video to talk a bit more details about how to setup the radio? Thanks!
Love seeing his hands in there ! So fun !
Oh yeah, he wants to help with everything!
Cracking plane ...so nice to fly 👍👍
how much weight u add on the front.

Plane at 55mm is super tail heavy using a 800mah 2 cell, need to try other packs
I purchased 3 of the 2 cell Turnigy 1.0 & they do balance out very well.
FlankerTanker I used a 3s 800mah Gens Ace and it CGs perfectly
@@thomassawchuk9668 i just ordered a few of those thanks

@7:15 I talk about it, you simply plug in the gyro control wire to an axillary channel to turn it off and on..

Just got mine built going flying in about 1 hour...
How did it fly?
Saweet. Just put mine together ❤
Great video!! I'm relatively new to the hobby. Where do the servo connections in the plane go that have 1 pin? ( Ailerons, Elevator, Etc).
Onto the signal row
Hey John. How did you attach the Rudder, Throttle and Elevator to the receiver? The single wire lead is new to me?
Those wires only go into the signal port.
JohnVHRC thanks! I figured it out yesterday, just after posting the message.
Thomas Sawchuk which one of the 3 pins do they plug Into? This single plug connector is new to me thanks
grim reaper they just plug into the signals
@@JohnVHRC do they have to be plugged into a certain pin in a certain way? I've tried a few different methods without any response from the reciver
Would it fit a 1300mah 3s? Ta
My 1000 was snug. But maybe.
Which receiver are you using?
A day late and a comment short!😆. Way easy build like the P-51. I see some aerial combat with GB! AirHammer out!!
Great to have am enthusiastic son.
Oh he is, very. Thanks!
