Hands down, your best videos are your little having fun contest videos. The fun of just hanging out with buddies really comes through. You should just have a week series called “some game we just made up”
MAN, love that! ;)
Free gold
I don't know about the rest of y'all, but it's been like 5 years, and I am ready to see some sort of speed challenge. Fastest for under $50 or something of the sort.
YES!
It's amazing to see how much Stefan improved his skills. I don't mean the short landings, but his takeoff, it was super scale!
haha! I gotta thank alex for that one... he has taught me a lot over the past 6 months! ;)
one of my favourite things about these videos is how enthusiastically you support each other!
Thanks for the kind words Ancona! We know its not about the planes or the challenges... its all about the relationships and that is why we try and cultivate those relationships as much as we can... the planes are just the conduit! ;) Blessings my friend!
i'd like to see you take one of the warbirds (ideally, a navy one...) and do arrested landings on a like a driveway or couple sheets of plywood, and devise some sort of arrestor system to catch a tail hook.....(peter's heli-carrier just sitting on the ground.....at first anyways...)
along with that, some sort of short launch catapult like carrier's use....
That slowmo landing compilation at then end was the cherry on the pie. Great abdominal work out for me in this episode LOL :)
I am in CA. People here wear full on winter gear at 57 degrees. I am originally from the Tundra of Illinois. It is constantly funny to me to see people bundled up here.
It was around -20 degrees here in North Dakota this morning, roughly -10 right now. It's funny seeing people from the south react to the weather.
10-4 I'm from Montana. Worked in the central valley of California for two years. People would come to work in insulated coveralls at 36 degrees. I found it funny how they were freezing. When it's -30 here and it warms up 30 above we are in long sleeve shirts loving it.
Robert Haynie My two year old wears tank tops and tutus all, "winter," she gets lots of looks. Very amusing.
Acclimation. I've worn a tank top in the snow, I've also had my fingers turning blue at 30f in california. I'm freezing my ass off right now, but I spent all summer out working in 115-120f heat.
I’m also from Illinois and I agree it’s funny to see how different areas react to what to me are “warm” temps or “cold” temps that are really just normal here
Like hanging out with a couple of old mates, laughing along and enjoying the thrills.
Thanks for sharing the fun and experience.
This video put a fair dinkum smile on my face, that looked like so much fun. Those takes off's by Alex and Stefan were fantastic as well, straight line with a tail dragger, well done guys.
So Stefan wins the ten-gallon hat... "Honorary Flying Cowboy!" Great episode, guys!
I see RC STOL Drags in your future
You guys always have so much fun, if someone wants to define what this hobby is all about, this video is it.
Thank you so much for the kind words Easton! You guys make it was it is today!! ;)
Bush landing should go global! This is a natural. Thanks!!!
Your enthusiasm and laughter is infection! Love how much fun you all have with what you do. Keep it up as always!!!
Was awesome seeing how much fun you guys had!
This kind of fun stuff is low-key inspiring - instantly makes me want to fly, build / modify something, and hang out with friends.
Best contest ever! I thought it was very fitting that "Josh is the dead battery", considering all the packs he has puffed over the years! LOL
First time coming back to the channel after a while and already loving Stefan's enthusiasm!
LOL, thanks for the laughs. Love watching you have so much fun together!
It's fun to people like you visit the State that I've had the pleasure of traveling in my entire life (70yrs).
Ad tips, slats to give yourself an advantage! Have a build challenge starting with identical models, then each of you modify them and have the same competition.
You guys are so much fun, love watching!
@ 5:18 "You'll be fine dude, just look out for that dirty cat" -- Alex's words to live by
A quote worthy of putting on a T shirt.
This is one of my favorite videos so far. Way to go Stefan!
Love it! Congrats, Stefan! This needs to be a competition at FTFF. I'm thinking the winner gets a ridiculous belt buckle, STOL drag race style!
Great job guys! You guys ROCK!
I NEVER LAUGHT so hard with fly games, ty guys!!
Love bush planes,such an inspiring video to get me outside and flying!
Old skool Flitetest with an added hysterical Stefan. Absolutely hilarious. Top job lads!
Now that's what it's all about FUN really enjoyed that guys :) many thanks
Awesome guys, I really enjoyed that!!
EXTREME KOOLNESS!!!
Best one yet!
Great episode guys. Love it!
These are my favorite types of episodes!
Sweet guys and yay Stefan 😁
You guy's are having way waaayyy to much fun and I love it. Thanks for sharing, you made my day!
Thanks for being a part of it with us Bruce! ;)
Loved it guys. Now build a model Kitfox with the large soft tundra tires. I think that would also be a great trainer. Be sure to include flaperons.
OH, I very much like that.. Kitfox for the win!
Great fun guys. I love my Tundra with the soft tundra wheels. Touch and goes all day long!
Most fun episode in a while awesome!!!!!
Awesome, these types of planes rock love the conversion.
Thanks for making my sat morning funny.
Oh man, this is too fun! I have literally done the exact same thing with my friends with my Carbon Z Cub
Haha you and the Flying Cowboys are our inspiration my dude! Crushed it! ;) . How good old Nevada? -Stefan
This was awesome and fun to watch!
Laughed so hard it hurt!! Superb. More games please!!!!
It was 57 here in buffalo NY too. It's refreshing, and great for flying.
So happy to see you guys using wings more often!
Bring back the Alex and Stefan Vlogs, my days aren't the same without them!
I think hands down that all ur videos are amazing. I love your guys motivation for everyone on the flight test crew. I think your merch is amazing and keep it up guys. Great job
U guys make me so happy, thanks so much.
That ending was hilarious tho! 🤣🤣 Stephan cracks me up!!!
Fantastic! Congrats on the win, Alex ... er Stefan!!!
Really good guys , super fun flying
Awesome video, that’s what is all about.. flying and having a good time with friends
You got that right James!! ;) . Now you know our secret! haha!
I woke 4 of our 5 kids up watching this video! Great job so much fun to watch as always!!!
One of the best vids on CZcams ever!
Hey Alex, you are getting better and better at these Vlogs. You and Stefan work great together. I’m surprised I haven’t seen you guys on a TV spot or something.
Great episode guys
What a way to spend a rainy day. Totally awesome.
Stephan's laugh is infectious. Love the video and the brotherhood. Keep the great videos coming
Variations on a theme, 1, Touch down on a tea towel. When that gets too easy - 2. Arrested landings - two bean bags ties to about 4' of string sitting on a 4x8 sheet of plywood. A tail hook bent out of a coat hanger and attached to the main landing gear of a nose wheel trainer should work. If you use a tail dragger you will need to add an attach point behind the cg. If you want to up the pucker factor put the plywood sheet up on a picnic table to punish low approaches.
That was slick guys , made my Saturday morning with coffee ☕️
I have never flown or built a RC plain in my life. You guys got me started on the hobby. The closest I have got to foam board is cardboard.
Love this one!
Love seeing these plane flying contests!!!
Great video guys!
Love these playfull episodes.
Oh man such a good episode I feel so spoiled, just subscribed yesterday. Cheers
Prestige Clash You aren't going to regret! :)
Thanks so much for becoming part of the community my friend! Rock on and we hope you continue to enjoy the vids for a long time to come! ;)
I never get to drink at work like these guys!
YES!!!, just what I need. Thank you
I didn't realize you guys were in Ohio. I think all of us in the midwest did everything they could to take advantage of our one nice day.
Yes finally someone with good sense. Love my Gear 3 Frontier!
I think you need to lock down the rules, has to land straight, no ground looping allowed and the penalty for nosing over should be more. Nice Video, FUN!!!
This is what flying Fun is with your buddies keep up the spirit
Build video?! Heck yes. Great game guys
Looks like great good fun!
By far my Fav channel, Keep up the fantastic work guys, Love to see a target bomb drop competition with all the guys.
That was FUN!!
Great to see you guys having fun,would have liked to have been there.
Great video!
Alex: "Hey Josh, wanna fly a bush plane?"
Josh: "YEAH!"
I love how fast he answered! :D
OMG, the video I waited for my whole life! :o
now you guys have to find a pond to waterski on!!!!
OK, that was legitimately fun to watch...
