I am very entertained how you guys get into more in-depth knowledge about aerodynamics than most airline pilots know while flying passengers en mass on a daily basis. Seriously. What are you guys trying to prove? I'm guessing your audience has shaken you down and you are trying to prove something to the arm chair aviators living in their mom's basement who are part of your audience. The people watching your channel that are actual interested, JUST WANT TO GO FLY and enjoy your experiences. No need to go into aerodynamics just to prove something to the trolls. We love your channel. Enjoy the pleasure of flying and.... stop trying to please everyone. Just do your thing and enjoy it. This is why we all love watching.
No audience shakedowns! This channel, from the beginning, has always been a place where we post videos we would want to watch if the roles were reversed. One of those things was what we felt was a gap in the RC video world of detailed fun videos on certain fundamental flying concepts. Stalls, crosswind takeoffs/landings, tailwheel ops, flying in wind, etc. You'll notice we haven't done any educational videos in a while - because we felt we covered what we would have fun covering. Thanks for watching - glad you enjoy the videos!
You did a real good job explaining a complicated subject with an incredible amount of factors and contributors. It’s easy to blanket every stall on which a wing drops violently as a “tip stall” because it just looks so obvious that the stall started or was only at that one wingtip. What hurts us the most is all stalls are pilot error. Just like a motorcycle or bicycle won’t fall over once it’s in motion, an airplane won’t stall on its own once it’s flying (if trimmed for coordinated flight). Pilots induce the stall by uncoordinated control inputs or failure to maintain sufficient airspeed for the attitude they’re trying to fly at.
A complicated concept in aviation explained in a concise fashion with accurate terminology and fantastic graphics! Thanks so much for this production. It will be mandatory viewing for my RC students henceforth! Thanks for your fantastic dedication to aviation excellence, whether RC or full scale flying!
You guys are great. It’s refreshing to hear someone who understands aerodynamics and explains it correctly. WAAAY too many RC RUclipsrs are spewing incorrect crap.
8:00 looks like a Mick Reeves spitfire, mine is a weird one because I can’t get it to tip stall. I’ve done several stall tests but it just won’t stall. It gently drops the nose like I push forward on the stick and doesn’t tip stall at all
I used stalls too my advantage last week to get another plane away from a large gasser that was flown by a kid who is a bit of a hotshot. The little zohd dart can handle some pretty rough flying even when there is a large gasser on its tail. Smaller aircraft have lighter wing loading and can dive like a bat out of hell too get out of the way
@@pieterpretorius1014 Yeah I raced nitro 1/8 buggys 1/10 stadium trucks for about 4yrs and I had a couple nitro planes back 20+ years ago, it's messy AF and they don't like the cold weather, electric is much easier and much cleaner for sure!!!
There is so much accurate information presented through this entertaining "fire hose" that I'm sharing w/my RC friends. GREAT work by this channel. Keep it coming!
They should have gotten more airspeed in ground effect before trying to pitch up that much, and pressed the elevator slowly and smoothly. When it started the roll, they should have brought the nose down to level before giving opposite elevator.
Great video. As a (insert massive ego boosting resume of a pilot), I appreciate how well you broke complex aerodynamics down. In the airline world it was interesting to see stall recovery philosophies change after Colgan 3407. 6:23 #alternatelaw #imissmytraytable
I appreciate the ego joke. LOL. Always especially funny and eye-roll worthy when people throw their ratings into their insta bios. 😂 For sure regarding the 121 world. I’ve never understood how it was ever SOP to try and lose as minimal altitude as possible in a stall. The new AQP stuff is great and was much needed. Happy landings! -Zach
Just found your channel. Thanks for the excellent clarification. I learned to fly RC after I earned my private license. I treated learning RC flying like I did full-size: It was a different world, I didn't know squat, and I'd better listen to the people who knew what they were doing. But I kept hearing about something I'd never heard of in my private training: the "tip stall". I asked guys at the field what was meant by a "tip stall". Some said that's what it's called because the wing "tipped over", others said it was the wing tip becoming aerodynamically stalled leading to dropping the stalled wing (on straight-wing trainers). That's why I'm really glad you provided this excellent clarification. Subscribed.
Hey, I just repaired and recovered an rc champ and on take off when it got in the air it was crazy like the cg was tail heavy, but after the crash i measured the cg again and it was even a little nose heavy. Should this have been a assemetrical stall if it looks like it flys tail heavy.
I tip stalled a very nice (new) T-Clips on final last year trying to slow for landing. I still fell bad about the crash but saying, "I dropped a wing" somehow makes me feel better. Yeah, I'll buy the tee shirt.🤠
So, does Aeileron neutral mean provide no corrective input on A? Just leave it alone and reduce throttle, provide rudder corrective input (optional), and provide corrective (opposite/down) elevator? A is the only one I’m a little confused about.
That's correct. Do not touch the ailerons. The easiest recovery is to simply let go. Otherwise, yeah, opposite rudder (only gently and as needed) with forward pressure and then gently climb out (no abrupt elevator inputs).
You are quite correct about the difference, but I always say tip stall myself as they are functionally the same as an asymmetric stall (from the 'oh no my plane flipped over' point of view) and everyone knows what i mean when i say it. If someone wants to argue about the granular detail they clearly have more time to waste on it than i do.
That's why we're proponents of just saying "I dropped a wing" instead of one or the other. It avoids any unnecessary arguments and is correct for either a tip stall or asymmetric stall. 👍
Hey tail heavy productions, I know this isnt related to the video but do you guys have the FMS Maule 1500mm? What are your thoughts on it? Y'all are one of the best rc channels ive seen so I always come here whenever I search up more about a rc plane (like the PA-18, loved that review)
This was really helpful. One question: I’m operating a flying wing that doesn’t have rudder. Does that make PARE just PAE? Also, this thing stalls like crazy but if I go any more nose heavy it wont pull up, what do?
Why did it crash? Me. I didn’t pilot it right. 😂 Haven’t flown for a few years and got a Volantex micro warbird so I forget I need more throttle on turns and a few toilet flushes later I remember to add power on aggressive on turns 😂
GAWD! I hope you finally got that out of your system. I think the only shirt you should produce and sell should say "Just the tip, Honey." And let it go.
Just passed my CFI checkride today, I notice your use of FOIs in the videos and I actually gain a lot from videos like this from a instructional perspective.
Did this with my Timber-X yesterday. Shortened the Xoar prop by two inches on each end, but flew out of it, lol. Flying a Timber-X like it is an AeroScout is a recipe for disaster.
Dang! It should be noted that legit flat turns (aka skidding turns) are a recipe for a wing drop due to the uncoordinated condition you’re in - ESPECIALLY when flying slow. Make sure your turns are *coordinated* above all else and keep your nose low during your downwind/base/final legs into the round out and flare. Flat turns are fun to try for fun when done on purpose! Good cross control practice. 👍
If the plane doesn't have any weird design characteristics and has good directional stability, then just letting go, rolling the wings level, and then gently pulling up works fine.
If only RC pilots learned that the Rudder is more than a way to steer the plane for takeoff, and then back to the parking spot. It is necessary for coordinated flight, and especially in a imminent stall and right after stall. Mantra: Aileron kills, rudder saves.
@@TailHeavyProductions at around 1:27, you say that a wing can stall at “any non-zero airspeed”. So wing at zero air speed would therefore not be able to stall, correct? Or am I just taking this way too far?
I was hoping you were going to include forward swept wing jets too, their stall characteristics are different from a traditional jet wing if I remember right. "I dropped a wing" shirt? Yes please. I would like a Tail Heavy shirt too, but XXL is out of stock 😢
Y’all over at Tail Heavy are so knowledgeable on aviation stuff; perhaps y’all could also answer a question I had on Sport EDFs. I know that swept wings are useful for aircraft that experience supersonic flow over their surfaces, but since sport jets don’t go that fast at all, how come so many are built with them? Are there other uses for swept wings in at Electric RC scales?
I hit up Adam who helped fact check this video. Here’s his answer. “Ok, short answer is that the point of a sport jet is to look like a jet, while also being fun to fly. Gotta have those swept wings and internal fan to look fast and sound wooshy. Most of the time having swept wings at the rc scale is not going to help it fly better. Lots of sport jets have dogtoothed leading edges or something else to *mitigate* the nasty effects of having a swept wing. I guess one exception to this is the category of flying wings, where having that sweep can give you some yaw stability (at the cost of potential dutch-roll nastiness) and can sometimes allow for a larger range of acceptable cg locations.”
Thanks! Yesir - I instruct and Ben is the only person I ever taught and let solo in my Luscombe. He’s working towards his private. He’s a great stick. 👍 -Zach
You're correct, cambered airfoils produce some lift at small negative angles of attack. We don't recall ever having said anything to the contrary. Would you mind pointing out what part of the video you take issue with?
The way we worded that portion of the video ("an angle of attack to the relative wind is required") and displayed a cross section on the screen might have been a little misleading to the point you brought up - but it was a necessary sacrifice to try to drill in the far more important lesson of how stalls are related to angle of attack instead of speed. For a video on the basics of stalls, getting into the nitty gritty is just going to confuse folks new to these concepts. In a future video, we'll definitely dive more into the intricacies of this stuff. Stalls 301. 😁👍
Entertaining and informative! Great vid. I think it’s also good to note that if your flying with SAFE and stall you need to turn off SAFE and then let go of the sticks to recover from a stall.
@@TailHeavyProductions ohhh okay thanks! Btw how come I don’t see any micros on your channel. Even in your “what your rc plane tells about you” or “rc pilots you’ll run into” vids 🤣
Additional comment: RC folks should never let full-size pilots look/talk down on you because you're just flying "toys". They're just as much airplanes as full size BUT are far harder to fly because their smaller size means far lower moment of inertia, which means crazy faster roll, pitch and yaw rates. That's why it's so easy to have a "tip stall". The best description I ever heard of what it's like to fly a fast small aerobatic RC plane (or heli) is it's like flying "a mosquito on crack". The young folks are particularly good at it. Those days are long gone for me, but I still am amazed at what lightning fast young reflexes can do.
I was flying my fms 980m p-40 and I had a fully developed spin happen on me, now I know my recovery technique is crap and thats why I crashed. Fixed the plane and did the same thing again.
Great video!!! i'm not a rc guy anyway, but it was AWESOME! I like the style and make me laughed so hard i start tears. Keep going and i hope some people take the advise: "It's a hobby and have fun and help others to join! Dont be a toxicgoalkeeper. It's hobby=fun not WAR!" This is for all hobbys, it's a HOBBY! Greatings to the Team and stay safe
My 1430mm Corsair fell out of the sky, straight down, no rotation, no spin, I thought I dropped a wing, no control response at all so, now I'm thinking signal loss.
Thank you. It's such a relief to hear common youtubeisms shot down from time to time, I am so sick and tired of hearing the tip stall yell. I hope you'll get to the so-called "downwind stall" some day, and the tendency to call all rolls 'barrel rolls'!
Just remember, though, that they absolutely DO exist - but arguing over whether or not a wing drop was a tip or asymmetric stall isn't worth the effort. Long live, "I dropped a wing"! 😁
Awesome video! I got my tailwheel endorsement in a 1946 Aeronca Champ. I loved doing spins in that plane. I built a full scale Sonex which had a "Hershey Bar" wing. Stalls were mostly benign, but occasionally it would drop a wing. Power on stalls were a little more abrupt. I added vortex generators which made the stalls more gentle. Am I correct in assuming this would be true with RC planes?
This vid just shined so much light on the stalling issue I've been having. Pulling up on the elevator and dropping a wing have been kickin my butt lately haha! Great vid! 👊🏿
Pretty neat how you can see the whole model at 8:08 buffeting as it’s forced through the stall!

My theory is planes fly with magic, when the magic stops they fall from the sky. I'm good at stopping the magic 😂

Went on a 737 flight test to stall test some flap mods. When a commercial jet "drops a wing", it's pretty dramatic. Boeing test pilots rock, btw!
One of the folks who helped fact check this video is a newly minted Boeing test pilot. Agreed!
Absolutely amazing video, i still refer to this over and over everytime i drop a wing :) amazing, great, concise explanation

Seems like you broke it down by yourself. 😜 sorry 😅
They should have gotten more airspeed in ground effect before trying to pitch up that much, and pressed the elevator slowly and smoothly. When it started the roll, they should have brought the nose down to level before giving opposite elevator.

Stalls were mostly benign, but occasionally it would drop a wing. Power on stalls were a little more abrupt. I added vortex generators which made the stalls more gentle. Am I correct in assuming this would be true with RC planes?
That was about as clear a mud....but I'm a bit thick😵💫
Sorry but where is the nitro timber?
Hey 700th like let’s go
ill buy the t shirt i guess
This vid just shined so much light on the stalling issue I've been having. Pulling up on the elevator and dropping a wing have been kickin my butt lately haha! Great vid! 👊🏿
Thanks! So glad it helped you! 😁
Perfect👌
Everything is a tip stall until you sabre dance
Ya I need a t shirt that says I dropped a wing. 😂 Love your videos.
I'm pretty disappointed this video isn't trying to convince me that the latest 1100mm warbird isn't the best ever at some obscure category
