This new version of the Rafale is a convenient size to put on the back seat of the car compared to the larger 80mm EDF version. It goes together in minutes. Just just UHU POR to glue on the vertical stabiliser, canards and fuel probe. Slide on the missiles, bombs and fuel tanks. Click on the mains landing gear and attach the nose gear. Then all you need to do is install your receiver and connect it up to the clearly labelled leads for the individual control surfaces and Reflex v2 gyro.
On this flight I removed its fixed landing gear and flew it with gyro on. You can also see that I cut some finger holes to assist with hand launching after 2 failed attempts. The fuselage is wide and flat underneath and impossible to get a good hand grip so I had to make this modification. Jason had tried a 2 handed launch but it is impossible to keep the nose up while pushing it hard from behind.
Sadly we have had a few rude comments that have had to be removed and the associated accounts blocked. Unless you try to hand launch this model yourself you wouldn't know what you are talking about.
1. Remove the fixed landing gear
2. Remove the bombs and missiles
3. Cut finger holes to assist hand launching
Flown on a 4S2700 pack and it was awesome. Easily the best small jet I have flown in a very long time !

Very nice Dom! Very impressive. Never seen a 64mm that would do that. Well flown man!
the mod I made on mine was to glue an EPO foam block down the centre of that wide fuselage - not unlike the one on the F14 Fattie - that is what gave me the idea - it start just in front of the Cheat grill and runs for about 6inch forward its about 1 inch deep just enough for the fingers to grip.. another fun video - well flown
You legends...fantastic 👏 I haven't taken mine that slow yet!!
You can do it!
He was well conscious of his hand launch lol. And it was a great one
I got mine in a couple days ago but the weather has been terrible so I haven't been able to Maiden yet. Can't wait to do alphas like this once I get it in the air!
Good luck !
Fantastic High Alpha manoeuvres 😁👌 has great power to weight, forgiving makes it a jet for a beginner and also fun for all EDF Jet pilots alike love it !!! Great content 😉💪
Thanks Steve!
Hi Dom I love this jet really can't wait to get mine. Thanks for posting another great video Sir 🇬🇧👍🏼
No problem Mike 👍 You'll enjoy yours.
@@EssentialRCIV just sent CHE' HAMILTONS HANGER in the USA the video. He is waiting for his to be delivered over the pond. 👍🏼🇬🇧
LOL😅The WIND IS YOUR FRIEND...!!!👍🙏😁😉
Fantastic flying!!
Thank you! Cheers!
I 3D printed a hand grip and glued it to the bottom center of the plane insted of cutting up mine,works great.
Great tip!
Is the gyro ON during slow low pass? Is it OFF?
will it take off on the grass?
so when you hand launch it do you use stabilization ? or is it off?
Off. I don't want the gyro interfering with my inputs while someone else throws it.
Flying like a seagull in the wind
similar to the Elton John song "candle in the wind"..
Have you ordered from the Fair rc linked in the description? They only accept pay pal which makes me a little suspicious
Recommended supplier from FMS so it's legit. Paypal is good. Means you are covered as long as you don't pay as a family/friend gift
How did you get it, since FMS will only ship to the US ??
CML are the distributor in the UK
did you turn the gains up on the Gyro?
No. You can't do that with Reflex gyro system. It's either on or off.
Is this Raf a single 64mm or DUAL 64mm? Cause i love MY beat up Rafale 80mm
Single 64mm EDF
That's decent flight time out pf a 2700
Edited together from 2 flights actually...but still get a solid 4 minutes. 5 minutes at a push.
@@EssentialRC that's great for an edf. My Ta-7 64mm gets about 4.5mins from a 3200 but the Su27 50mm twin only gets 3.5mins. Think I'll get this rafale and show horn the 3200 into it. Cheers
"" one of the best things about dude is that he never takes credit for himself when he achieves something . he always respect us, the audience, and his team, and he is always polite in all of his video. we congratulate ourselves on this achievement more to come and everything to come""❤💛🧡💙
Let's we all just appreciate the content this man and his crew makes it's just a masterpiece imagine what's he's gonna doing the future ❤
I hope this channel never ends and keeps spreading happiness.❤😊
OMG...think that's literally the nicest comment I've had on my channel. Thanks very much !
That's about as stable as my mental health.
You literally do not need ANY mod to hand launch this plane. Do not ruin your plane, it will basically just fly out of your hand.
If you've got the hands of a giant so can you hold it underneath then yeah...but as we demonstrated there is no good way to grip it underneath without doing something. And no, it won't fly out of your hand. It needs a good throw. 🤦♂️
@@EssentialRC If you hold it by the exhaust with ONE HAND with your fingers slightly in the exhaust and give it a gentle upward and forward push the plane very easily flies right away. So yes, it will fly right out of your hands. I do it all the time, which is why I said it. So again, do not destroy your airplanes just to hand launch, this mod is a waste of time and destroys the looks of the plane. Try it.
will it take off on the grass?
It has fixed landing gear and I didn't use it because it would look ugly when flown around. Hand launch it so you don't have to worry about take off from grass.
