    Hi Geff.
    My Goosky RS4 also un-plugged itself and the XT 60 was tight!..I think its the fact that the esc has the male xT60 built in making it shake out rather that dangle in suspension
    like all other helicopters. Great to see the boy out with you mate.

      I think you’re right, I’ve used XT30, XT60 and XT90s for many many years and never once had one unplug. but! it being built into the ESC and not hanging on wire to absorb vibrations and movements is probably the biggest reason! he did great and I was happy to help!

    Hey Geff, its so nice to see young kids in the hobby , I taught my son to fly now he is addicted to helis , he would come with me to the flying club when he was 4 years young ,, now he is 14 and still crazy about helis, 1 of your best videos 🙂🙂

    Incredibile how kids/young guys get immediately comfortable with complex meneuvring. My 11 years old son sterted yesterday playing with the sim and after uncertain and shy hovering he started flying inverted smooth and easy. Unbelievable! I will soon retire 😂

    Love your channel, Jeff! I’ve learned a lot, purchased a few Goosky helis based on your reviews. Was wondering if you would consider hosting a hands-on, in person collective pitch helicopter pilot training camp for newbies.

      @westhobbiesrc8051  Před 5 měsíci +2

      Thank you very much! I greatly appreciate that, I hope you are enjoying your goosky helicopters. They are definitely a great helicopter. So actually! I’m planning on putting on a Funfly at my field later this year! I will make a full video about it, giving the dates and when it will be. Some thing where everybody can get together and just have a good time.

      It gets harder the older you get. But that doesn’t mean you can’t do it! Just practice and you will get there! The young kids learn so fast they’re like a sponge. You should definitely get the S2 out and flying!

The bird is really stable and responsive. My other RS4 (PNP kit) feels a lot different. I need the weather to clear up so I can fly them back-to-back for comparison.
