  • Very first time crashing this beautiful plane.
    It all happened so fast.
    Just started flying great and started getting a little too confortable and a little too brave.
    Had a brain fart 🧠💨 and as I had her upside down, I went up elevator to get out of it with not enough altitude. Lesson learned.
    Found it’s an extremely easy to fly plane. So started not paying attention.
    Things I learned:
    1. Focus on what you are doing.
    2. Have awearness of your plane’s orientation.😵‍💫
    3. Inverted: “Up is down. Down is up” dont forget! 🤦🏻‍♂️
    4. Coming at you: “Everything is backwards”🤦🏻‍♂️
    5. Remember where your “Safe Mode” switch is on. Use it!🤦🏻‍♂️
    6. It’s a slow flying airplane but it can crash really fast.
    Absolutely love this plane. I’ve since then put it back together and have flown it manny more times. And crashed it manny more times as well. 🤦🏻‍♂️

    Oh that sucks, man! Its super refreshing to see pilots taking responsibility for mistakes. That's how ya grow. Great attitude!

      💯 most of the times I crash is because I’m doing or trying something stupid 😂 and I do take a lot of risks

    I try to talk to myself when inverted “push to go up” repeatedly.

    I kind of saw that coming. I've done that. Reminds me of my early flying days... not that i don't still do that on occasion. But i could tell that your aerobatic skills are not yet fine tuned and you were very lucky a few times when we're doing sharp turns and very quick manuevers. I could see that you saved it a few times wheen you got behind what it was doing.
    A little more slowed, scale aerobatics and not whipping it around will keep you ahead of the plane and make for a longer lasting model. Don't do things just because you see others do them. You need s better feel for the plane first.
    Otherwise... you're almost there... you're close. Just slow it up and smooth it out. Stay out in front of it.
    I've buried 2 P-51's to date and rebuilt my first one multiple times now. That was my learning the hard way plane. And i still have that one.

      @Elircplanes  Před dnem +1

      Yeah I’ve learned a lot since. Gotten better. But you’re right. I do take a lot of risk but only because I want to get better. But ends up in the ground a lot because of it lol. Thank you for the advice. Always humble enough to listen to someone with more experience than me

    It happens 🤷🏻‍♂️ it’s only going to make you better and more focused.. the trick I have learned when I fly inverted is to put your thumb behind the stick so you can only push up ..

    • @Elircplanes

    That’s too bad, I feel your pain.😢 I’ve only tried flying inverted for very short periods and a quite a high altitude. I just don’t trust my brain and thumbs to fly upside down that low. Hope you get her fixed and back in the air soon!

    • @Elircplanes
      @Elircplanes  Před 4 dny +1

      Yeah it took me a long time to be able to get brave enough. I I’ve gotten better about it but it’s still scary. I did put it back together and have crashed it many more times. But she’s still flying beautifully.

  • @samuelapiazza47
    @samuelapiazza47 Před 2 dny +1

    Altitude is your friend. I also noticed your speed at times was just above stall speed. You have a fast warbird not a Cub. Fly it the way it was designed. 75% throttle or more unless landing. Keep at it!!! Happy Landings 😉🤙🤞

    • @Elircplanes
      @Elircplanes  Před 2 dny +1

      Yeah. I learned that it likes speed under the wing. But it’s so much fun to fly slow tho lol

    Very repairable, none the less, dumb thumbing 1into the ground blows but, such as the hobby goes. I buried the t-28 a few weeks ago from a full speed low pass to a snap roll to an inverted climb out, yeah I completely inverted it into hard pack brown grass and sand rather than the blue sky. Oh well, I say it's a very logical excuse to buy a new plane(even though I can fix it)

    • @Elircplanes
