I want to see some Balsawood build tutorials.
Some basics with samples.
+DoctorWildstylez
Yes Balsawood would be nice.
Rewiew this www.geocities.ws/i96_les/speedster_400/construction/construction.html Only thre Sheets 2, 3 and 8 mm one of each.Small and fast and have to be converted to brushless (thats something i would like to see)
I 2nd this motion.... Some traditional sticks builds would be a nice switch up.
I like how the show guys and the way you review/do things. Thumbs up to editing and the entire team.
Nice T-28. Dad was a Flight Instructor at NAS Pensacola in VT-10 where he flew T-34s. Flew the 28s as well, and always said it was his favorite aircraft to fly.
Ahh, this was a joy to watch. Just a simple and plain review of a model plane. Made me relax. Thank you Flitetest!
Thank you fellas for putting together a review on an awesome ready built plane. The T-28 is one of my favourites as I used to work on them. Though I did like the way you used to intro with the planes in the studio and have a really good talk about the good & bad points. This is definitely one for the wish list. Thanks again.
Awesome flying and video 👍. I do love my 3 T-28s. My go to plane is the Airfield T-28 that I installed a two speaker sound system. Love watching your videos because each show the passion you have for our Hobby 😉. A follower since almost day one. ✈️😀💝
You guys are so great, and I wanton say thanks for introducing me to the hobby! I just built the nutball (and crashed and broke the firewall) and I enjoyed flying it so much!!! I just got my AMA youth membership, and I'm excited to see more great things from you! I loved the tiny trainer, spitfire, and off course the nutball!
Holy cow, this thing flies straight and true, haven't seen anything like this in a while. And it sounds perfect. Looks and behaves very scale. It was very fun to watch. Excellent video shooting and editing, top notch! You picked a nice part of day, with the late afternoon sun and epic colors. Well done!
What a well put together plane! That thing looks like a lot of fun to fly. Just a side note.... HUGE props (see what I did there) to the multi rotor crew for their talent in filming all the videos lately. They went from being really damn good, to holy crap how'd you get that shot so fluid looking. Way to go chaps!
I have two T-28 Trojans. The first is the Parkzone T-28 that I bought several months ago - and installed the E-Flite retracts per Flite Test's instructional video. The second is the E-Flite Carbon-Z T-28. Wow! Both planes are very easy to fly, and very forgiving. The CZ Trojan gets a lot of attention at the flying field due to its size. It also has a great presence in the air. I would recommend the Parkzone Trojan to practice, but not to move to the Carbon-Z until you have a lot of experience. Believe me, you DON'T want to crash this one. Also, transportation is an issue, even when it's disassembled. I have a Hyundai Genesis coupe, so when I go to fly, it's the only plane I have room for.
Hi there, I have been flying for 35 years but mostly balsa planes with fourstroke engines. Ive never had a Trojan before and im seriously thinking of buying this plane as its just been re-released. I wont be able to fly it with the Spektrum radio safe stabiliser as I only ever use Futaba 2.4 radio gear. Do you fly your Trojan with with Spektrum safe? Also are the retracts strong enough for our club grass runway? Also am I right in saying that there is a great sound of this plane while in flight as I like that in a model plane? Sorry for all the questions but I would love your opinion before I buy the plane? Thank you and much appreciated.
I wish I had a local hobby shop! I live all the way out in Africa! (Johannesburg)
I'm with you on that one! I live in Namibia.
+Brian Evans Thing is how many places are there that you can fly ?
I feel so lucky to work at my lhs. It's almost a dream job minus the lacking pay grade.
+AceInvader Any job is better then none and being homeless can be even worse
+Brian Evans If you are looking for Quadcopter stuff, there is a place in Kempton Park that has a few good deals. I also came across a few hobby stores in Pretoria and can give you the contact details if you want. The place in Kempton has some good stuff, i bought my first multi-rotor from them. I live in Clarens, in the Free State.
The periscope way is actually pretty smart. It ensures you guys pick something that is either pretty recent or simply readily available and popular amongst viewers.
Plus, a good chance to find something unexpected/interesting.
Who could dislike this awesome flying war bird??? The 5 that disliked this must have never flown a T-28 Trojan. Great video guys!!!!
I agree with Brian Evans about your local model shop. All the ones near us have closed and we're now reliant on shows and, of course, the internet. That one looks well-stocked.
You don't necessari;ly need a big car or van to transport a model that size. I travel to my flying site alone so I just shove my longer fuselages over into the front passenger area :) One of my biggest models is one called an Eazy Peazy which has an 84" ws (wing in 2 parts) and is made from foamboard. I bought it part complete and converted it to electric power (fro a 60m size glow engine) on 4S LiPos. It has a stately flight characteristic and is iffily aerobatic :)
T-28 looks a fine model and bigger models do fly better but they are more expensive. I think a written spec at the end would be helpful to potential buyers - wingspan, weight, energy size etc is good to know.
Thanks for all your videos. I watch most of them that aren't quad biassed :)
Geoff
Dear FliteTest,
Please build 2 very large planes (Like the Circle plane or Multi wing plane) and use them for combat. That would be one AMAZING episode.
Good on periscope, glad you all are using that. Always glad when my cell gets a P-scope notice from you guys. That has added a lot to the FTest experience.
Did not know you can do the heart thing - guess I have to find out more about that.
Nice plane, above my budget but I like to see what's out there. Good info on the batteries, that kind of info is useful to us out here. A balsa/fuel plane here or there would be cool. Seems there is a fair amount of interest from people who have only flown leccies to try fuel. Right now you can get glow engines pretty cheap, and whole planes on craigslist for less than the price of an engine alone.
I've been waiting for you guys to fly this huge bird! Thanks for the video!!!
Watched that periscope broadcast and helped decide. VERY happy with how it turned out! :) Keep doing those!
Your video convinced me. It is my birthday this month, and I was going to get the carbon z cub. I have the parkzone t-28 and when you said this flies just like that, I decided that the carbon z t-28 was going to be my first large bird. Keep up the great work.
I really like how you guys used periscope to pick the review subject.
The periscope sessions really remind me of the first days of Flitetest and why I enjoy watching?
I just bought the parkflyer size eflite trojan and I LOVE the new design. Much much much better than the old trojan. Almost identical to this one just scaled down and flies great as well
I somehow missed this review 4 years ago, but since I've been flying this plane on the SIM, RUclips has somehow noticed and recommended (I may have looked up Trojans).
Either way. Thank the sky gods for the FliteTest backlog.
From the 2020 viewer, signing off.
This was a great episode. Please do another like this.
It woul dbe nice to review some of the new larger warbirds like the FMS P-51B and Zero.
Excellent test flight. The camera work is fabulous Ground, quadcopter and tail. Great work!!! Thx!
In my opinion, the best thing about your videos is the fact that you can actually perform decent landings. There are too many people that just drop the damn plane out of the air.
+Flite Test I'd love to see you do a "fringe" brand plane... Easy Sky makes a Yak-12, sold through HobbyKing... I have one and have had some issues getting it to work as advertised. It's a 5 channel. I bought it RTF, and the radio it comes with has dual-rates built on a switch, which is nice, but you can barely use the lower rates in tight areas, and the normal rates require a football field. I have since upgraded to a FlySky FS-i6 transmitter and receiver running on 2A. This xmtr I can dial in my own rates and such, which is awesome and I cant wait to try it out. I'd like to see what you guys can do with a Easy Sky Yak-12, but use your own xmtr's.... I believe the Turnigy is the same as the FlySky... but even a Spektrum would work... Thanks!
Josh & Peter Nice Plane & Great flying ! There is a Guy in our Club has the Z T-28 & it Fly's Nice but Expensive ! Thanks for the Video ! Dave B. Illinois
nice-thanks guys! How were the flap hinges? I saw one that had a flap let loose.
Thank you for that great flight. Keep on flying. I’m just now getting into airplanes. Very interesting.
For the price, you'd think quality control would spot the motor being wired wrong. Maybe someone did and stripped out the Allen key in a half hearted attempt to put it right. (Possibly finished being made at home time) lmao.
It's good you guys talk about it, with luck the makers watch and use your video for feedback..
Thanks for the upload. 👍🏼
Got this plane a few weeks ago, best foam plane I have owned. Flies just like the small one :) Only thing I didnt like were the gear door hinges, which were made of plastic...they can break easily, so I advise to clip them off, drill two holes and put a good sized servo rod piece inside :) Works well, and can forgive any hard landing ;) Overall a must have for a RC Flyer :)
That drone following is epic. Great work on that!
Nice video guys. Do the wings come of easy for transport?
I'd like to see a nitro video. I believe FliteTest had mentioned the possibility of doing them in the past but I don't believe it has happened. A beginners guide to nitro would be fantastic for those of us who prefer nitro over electric. I inherited some nitros that I would love to fly. A Flite Test video would help a ton!
Love what you're doing though!
Cool video. I'd love to see a video on the WWII UMX Warbirds from E-Flite: The P-47 Mustang, the F4U Corsair, and the P-47.
I Liked that you show the where you buy it!
We have one in the club. Great model and you are right, floaty on the landing. Lots of fun to fly. Some issues with the retracts. Overall a really cool model. Overall I may buy one.
that plane was NICE! love the sound
I think Peter should do something crazy to this plane:D I enjoyed the review keep them coming!
Another great product review with stunning video clarity... Would you be able to say what camera you're using and what lens?
+TheMckfly Ground to air footage is done with Lumix GH4's as far as I know. But I'm not sure what lenses they are using.
Awesome video! I really want to buy one of these...
If there is ONE thing that I hate ... It's airplane motors in the background of my airplane videos!
LMFAO!!! 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Would love to see you guys building your own designs again. Miss that.
You guys should do a video on that corsair... I really like the idea of a cool looking plane that is a beginners/ intermediate plane
I love the little beaver hanging from the roof in the hobby shop. What brand was this one from?
Great video And also nice video with drone Not experienced yet for this plane One day
Great video as always guys any chance of some reviews on flight sims for us newbies and more experinced ?
Awesome guys! You should review a B-25 Mitchell Rc airplane 7or 8 ch.
Please review the new Lumenier QAV 180 someday? Also I miss my local hobby shop it closed down about 5 years ago.cool job on the review guys!
hi josh, i have this awsome plane, really turns heads in the uk. do you think it would handle a 90 size motor rather then the 60 size it comes with. love your your shows.
I can't wait to get that!
The tx timer went off right before touchdown @ 6:30. I thought it was a stall horn for a sec lol
Great Video. Would be interesting to see a Stinger 64 or Stinger 90. Been some time since the last jet.
You guys have the best job, but I think you deserve it. Being clear consise and entertaining is harder than many people know. Keep up the good work.
I really enjoyed this video! Makes a nice change for you to do something a bit different from time to time! Thank you.
Rich.
PLEASE do a review on the turnigy 9xr transmitter. I want to see if it's any good before I spend any money.
Periscope is great. Please don't stop. It would be nice to see a large edf.
hi guys nice flite, couldnt you save a buck and run 2 lipos in series? that would help keep the cost, and you could charge the batteries quickly?
Awesome Review! Carbon Z T-28 is a beautiful aircraft! Was all the shots onboard from a Mobius? It was beautiful footage.
another good vid and great footage Alex .
Thanks duude:)
i love to see the periscope method along side "build tune fly"
Nice plane, looks easy to fly. You guys are awesome bro, love the skills you have to fly pretty much anything. I would like to see the Blade Mach 25 drone.
Love the periscope way of reviewing. I'd love to see the UMX habu s EDF
Nice idea with periscope and on-demand reviews ;)
Dear FliteTest. PLEASE do a review of the unique models PC-9/T6 Texan II!! I'd love to hear your opinions on it! Thanks.
Periscope is great and do a review on blade 230S please
I'd love to see the FMS Edge 540 v3 reviewed. For me, it's a good learning platform, as I'm well capable of keeping it in once piece and get myself to learn a few more complicated maneuvers. But I haven't seen any comments about the plane from more seasoned pilots and would really like to see your opinion.
Great review!
Excellent video, very tempting size notwithstanding.
I'd love some see some HV endurance builds and more custom VTOLs.
That was a easy looking flyer. Keep up the good work!
You guys should do some videos on gas or glow models.
Just noticed this was 2 years ago, so don't know if you still read these comments. Just wondered, with Peter's rocket knowledge, you could put ejection seats on a plane this big. That might make an interesting challenge.
Nice video guys. I realy like the big size plane. Makes it fly more scale. What is the esc amp the motor spec and the battery c rating that you use in this video? cheers
And prop size pls.
Once you get to this price point, foam just doesn't make sense. You have spent your way into a really nice gas large scale plane. These are very nice, but the reduced flight times and the battery cost and everything else, it makes more sense to go balsa and gas.
yellowbusguy But you spend 1/64th the time working on this than you would a gas planes, plus an engine for a gas plane this size alone, would be 500 dollars ( evolution 62cc).
No, balsa is not as durable in a crash.
yellowbusguy are you pulling this out of your behind a plane like the Trojan costs roughly 1/6th of any gas planes
it good to see a plane review. not something about multi rotors.
keep it up FT
Hands down the best reviews. That is the kind of plane that would be fun to fly and a nightmare to own....what were they thinking?
You guys should review the TBRC Reflex. It's a bloody awesome EPP flying wing, flies super smooth!
I have a question about your Pietenpol. Can this plane be flown from the front cockpit for bigger guys to avoid cg problems.
I just ordered my micro trojen with safe as my second plane. SO EXITED. It is the yellow by E flight one for those who are wondering
Nice flight !!!! amazing rc model !!! Thanks ; )
That is a GREAT field to fly from!
+Ronald DeRespini It's Furey Airfield. The place where Flite Fest happens :)
I would like to see you review a 500mm hex versa copter.
Keep it up guys, great channel. ..
i would find it beautiful if you guys review a Discus launch Glider like the hobbyking 1,5 m dlg or a other one. i bought a libelle from dreamflight and it was complete crap there were huge holes milled in to boom where it is not even needed.
The trojan is so cool. 3 models released this year by horizon hobby. I'd like to see the Eflite P51 Mustang Dallas Doll.
Okay, just wondering if I should join AMA? I have a parrot AR drone 2.0 and a horizon hobby super cub so far. I usually fly at a park or a filed near a church. I don't know of many events or anything near me. Should I join the AMA or not?
+The Jardz Yes. You'll have to join anyway if you want to go to any bigger event. The AMA is lobbying for you and the more members it has, the more powerful it is.
hey Josh where you purchase lipo battery at?..will be purchasing plane soon will like to purchase those lipo
It appears there are words mowed into the grass. What does it say? You can see it around 3:31 or so.
can you guys do a review on the hobbyking BAE hawk please cuz I'm not convinced by the posts about the plane.
awesome show guys, keep up the good work. maybe a tutorial for aerobatics?
Maybe you could introduce us to flying scale fighterjets(f16/f117/sr71) with actual afterburners. Maybe someone that has one for hobby can explain his and fly it in your show.
Hi there, I am seriously thinking about buying this plane as its just been re-released and I love big planes. Ive been flying for 35 years and most of my planes have been balsa with fourstroke engines. Ive never owned a Trojan before. I will be changing out the Spektrum radio as ive only ever flown with Futaba. Does this plane handle the wind well and will the retracts work well on a grass runway and stay strong? Am I right in saying that there is a nice sound of plane when flying and would you recommend it as a reliable aircraft? Would appreciate your advice? Thank you.
Put a pan/tilt/roll fpv system in the T-28 cockpit for an insane fpv flight!!
Trojan flies great, you can do a hammerhead flip it shut the motor of and build up airspeed as you fly to the ground and float land.
I would also like to see a beginner balsa plane reviewed. :D just built my simple soarer.
Are you guys going to do a review on the Spedix s250 quad?
is there a way to have the camera in the quad automatically point at the plane with a tracking device in the plane?
Kindly continue the episodes with crazy think just like before you do with Scott. And kindly explain the difference of flight characteristics(Low pass, i-fage, inverted, stall turn) with other models and also please explain the main difference between high mid and low wing characteristics with different models.
