Oh yeah that brought back memories of working on the F-16's for that movie with your Dad. I also sacrificed my Mirage III NG , turned it into an enemy Kfir for the movie. Fun times working in the back shop. A-10 flew great ,love the bomb drop.
Beautiful airplane! I have the smaller Eflight A-10 which I enjoy, but would love to upgrade to the larger FMS one day. I’m a huge fan of the Arctic camo sceme. As always, a very enjoyable, entertaining video. I need to look into the eflight drop system you mentioned. I’d like to do an upgrade to my A-10!
Always love seeing an A-10 in it's element - prowling for targets on the open plain with the woods behind for added effect. Great flying brother, hope you have a very Happy New Year spent with family and friends 🎊🎉👍😁
Chris. That FMS model looks good in the arctic camo. The 7000 6s pack makes it fly scale but i imagine a lighter pack it would get some bigger air. Love the bomb drop mod. Well done. 👍👍
Nice looking plane . I was surprised how fast it flew . Bomb drop a definite hit !. As alway beautifully flown showing the A10 at its best . Thanks Chris , great video.
@@Thercgeek As a young solder in Germany( Royal Tank Regiment ) I had the pleasure of seeing the A10 live firing using the same range . They would start squirting directly over head , very impressive and unforgettable, you could see the aircraft shake and shudder . The sound of the gatling gun unmistakable. I swear it looked like the aircraft slowed down when it fired ! . Trip down memory lane 😂
Very clever Chris. Enjoyed the video immensely. Actually broke out laughing when the bombs hit and then there was the flames explosion. Happy New year to you and your family. Hope you're enjoying your new life. Going to pick up the Chandra Patte carbon cub today. A Christmas present to myself. I am stoked.
Awesome flying that A-10, which by the way happens to be one of my favorite Jets of all time. At the moment I have the 64mm e-flight a-10. Just wondering if the drop kit that you have will fit the e-flight version?? I hope that it will. And what do you all think about making a ejector pack for the A-10 as well, it would be cool since the real A-10 uses them. Food for thought? Lol.. Again I love the way that you fly this beautiful bird.. Thanks again..
P.s. Awesome that you used the movie clips as well. Iron Eagle. Love that Movie as well. Lol.😂😂 Again, awesome job with flying and bomb drop. That was cool.. Oh just one more thing, have you thought about putting the du-bro low bounce wheels on it? Just watched another video with them. 2 1/2 inch on mains and 2 inch on the nose. Just letting you know if you haven’t seen that video on it. Lol
Dammit! I finally had a plane before you. (8 years subscribed to your channel) I’ve had it for a month and 1/2, but the weekend weather around here has sucked. It looks nice sitting in the basement next to the Freewing 80mm a-10….
And thanks for the setup tips. FMS seems be lacking in that department, but they make it up with superb landing gear. I’ve got their Yak-130, Bae Hawk, Rafale, and the Futura v3 as well. All are most favorite edf’s ever every time I fly one of them. Never owned an FMS until this past Spring. Can’t say enough good things about their jets.
Great review on a beautiful model. Could I please trouble you with one question: What style hinges are used on this plane? Good ones, or cheap foam? BTW, as an ex military pilot, I have a pretty good idea why the plane noses during low to high power transition. I won't bore you unless you have some interest in theory. Thank you! Dale.
So Chris I was seriously thinking about the smaller EF A-10 Warthog II. So, this "bigger" FMS 1.5m A-10 requires a receiver, and you're using the Spectrum AR8360T?
@@Thercgeek That is awesome! Ordered several kits from your Dad in the way, way past, always a pleasure talking to both of them. Glad they are out and about and doing well.
Lol gotta love the “ Iron Eagle” cut scenes on the the most underrated 80’s flying action flick ….
Haha, I couldn’t help it, I love that flick. 🤣
A rc 182 and bike race 👍

A-10 flew great ,love the bomb drop.
The good old days!
Yes great times learn alot. Your poor dad always had a phone in his ear while trying to pack,ship, and build his planes.
Love the effects lol, total Iron Eagle flashbacks. Nice overview my friend and great job with the bomb drop!
Haha, thanks!

Great Show an mods from Hell.
Beauty TRCG, brilliant.
Haha, thanks man!
Nice !!! Love bomb drop, and thanks for setup tips. I told James on MRC Show today to check out you B-58.😃👍🏻✌🏻🖖🏻🎊
Cool, thanks man!
Great video Chris, BOMBS AWAY!! The Iron Eaglehog has landed!! 🤣. AirHammer out!!
Haha, thanks!

NICE LITTLE TOUCH ON VIDEO WORKS AS WELL AS THAT GOOD FLYING! 😆
Haha, thanks!
Just ordered your 3D printed bombs for my A-10 can’t wait to get them installed.
Happy New Year
Thank you!
That plane has about as many fans as the Tom Cat, love it. If I ever do EDF, 70mm is where I'd start.
Way to fly Geek man and the super realistic cgi effects just complete the package 👍
I spared no expense on those effects 🤣🤣

Thanks!
Haven't been the biggest fan of the A10 Then I flew one and really liked How well it flew
They do fly well. That straight wing really helps.
Great 😃👍 video 📸 i am just getting started thanks for your help please keep doing what you're doing thanks again ☺️
Awesome plane , great camera angles on the nose rear facing
Thanks!
Really nice! Thanks for sharing 👍.
Ps: Was it a Runcam you used for the undercarriage/fuselage rear view clips?
She Flies Beautifully
Yeah she does
Who else watches Geek’s videos to see what T-shirt he will have on next? Ok for me that’s the best part.
Haha, I wasn’t sure anyone noticed them. 🤣 i love me my Geek shirts! 😆
You had me at Hades, Chris. 😂
Haha

Haha, exactly! 🤣
Grear video i had one of these i camoed it right into the ground also 5000mah is really mot enough
Nice jet! I would like to own one.
Need some quarter sticks with a impact fuse 👌🏻
Be nice if you had airspeed display to know when you’re near stall, either from cockpit with live display or on the transmitter 😊

If I remember right, they are plastic hinges. Too high performance for just foam hinges.
Wow,TOTALLY COOL Video Man!!! LOVED the bomb-droppage and the explosions along with it!!! Lol. WAY COOL!!! Well done!!! : >)
Thanks man!
@@Thercgeek Welcome!!! : >)
Very awesome review. Question what throw gauge is that? I'm shopping around for gauge throw. Ty
Thank you! The gauge is something that I sell 😊 www.thercgeek.com/product/Control-Surface-Deflection-Meter
Nice Iron Eagle cut in there. 😂
Haha, thanks! 😆🤣🤣
What Receiver are you using in that beast ? Looks awesome
It’s the AR8360T (there’s a link in the description)
@@Thercgeek wow. Top notch RX. 👍
So Chris I was seriously thinking about the smaller EF A-10 Warthog II. So, this "bigger" FMS 1.5m A-10 requires a receiver, and you're using the Spectrum AR8360T?
That’s correct.
@@Thercgeek Thanks!
How about for the E-Flite A-10?
I will have to look into that
Always love an A-10! Does this one fly as low as the E-flite A-10? ;)
Haha, good question! 🤣
Hey Chris, was that a cameo appearance by you dad in the background?
Yep, that was both my folks. They came to visit before Christmas.
@@Thercgeek That is awesome! Ordered several kits from your Dad in the way, way past, always a pleasure talking to both of them. Glad they are out and about and doing well.
How much and where can I buy one at?
There are links in the video description. 😉
When will you be adding the functional 30mm Gatling gun?
That would be super fun

Nice. bomb drop was on point. IRON EAGLE was better than top gun. Chappy!!!!!!!!
Heck yes!!
Yes, that totally happened! #IronEagleFTW 🤣

Hi what camera did you use that is mounted to the plane?
You stayed calm... and did NOT call Chappy? 🙂
Haha, I came real close though 🤣
