The Best Trainer Warbird We've Ever Flown - FMS Zero 1400mm
Vložit
- čas přidán 20. 06. 2024
- The FMS Zero 1400mm isn't the best trainer because it's super easy to assemble or even because it's marketed as a trainer. Because it isn't. But it's so easy to fly that even pilots without warbird experience should be able to pick it up with ease. Just ask our aeronautical engineer Ciaran who flew it on-camera with no prior warbird experience!

The most straightforward and professional RC flying channel on youtube. Thanks guys for doing what you do!
Thanks for watching!
This is the one plane that I've consistently wanted in my hangar since picking up the sticks less than a year ago. I desperately need an upgraded Tx'er with my current RC budget. So, i really hope FMS keeps this plane around for a bit longer. Like 6 or 8 pay periods. Lol.
They really do make a damn fine RC plane.
Thanks for keeping my RC hopes and dreams alive, showcasing all of these RC beauties 👍
Happy to help!
I love this plane, followed your advise and replaced the rudder servo to metalgear.
I put another pivot into the inner hole of the rudder servo that improved ground handling a lot.
Thanks❤
Nice work!
Might pick one of these up for when I teach people how to fly after they’ve been on the sim for a bit
I LOVE mine! Great Channel guys, always love the vids
Glad you like them!
Nice review of the FMS Zero 1400mm. I really like that you had Herron fly the plane as someone with no warbird experience I can see myself trying this plane. I like watching you wring out a plane but it doesn't always fit my flying style.
Happy to help! BTW, his name is actually spelled Ciarán since he's from Ireland. ;)
Great content Jon! Thanks for showing it in the hands of a newer pilot as well.
Thanks man! We're trying to vary up the content, and give our in-house aerodynamicist some spotlight too.
Two words, Runway Maintenance. Cool Vid!
Five words: Are you willing to help?
Thanks!
@@TwoBrosRC I don't think I live close enough, lol I sure would if I could, I have a few to fly as well.
I've been eyeing up this one for a while! After acquiring some FMS planes recently, I'm really impressed. I've just gotta get past my obsession with balsa 3d birds at the moment... * runs off to watch your 3d tutorials for the 5th time *
Keep the downsides in mind. It's not a plane that you're going to want to take apart. If you can live with that or don't mind taking 7+ minutes to assemble it at the field, you'll be rewarded with a really docile trainer for warbirds. If you want to push it, you could modify it so that the battery sits under the canopy instead of in front of it.
@@TwoBrosRC Will do! Thank you for such thorough info in your videos. You really highlight all of the little nuances that many others miss or fail to discuss!
I really wish all manufacturers would impliment an easy on/off system for the wings. The new Freewing Cougar has a great set up, ribbon cable and clips for the wings.
They've been trending that way recently, but the Zero is a pretty old model that hasn't been updated yet. It's worth dealing with for a beginner - the stability is unparalleled.
Ribbon cable is pretty heavy though - we usually prefer models with straight servo connections over ribbons.
I was think about buying this but i had a bad experience with the fms p51 800mm do you still think i should still get this
Or is the fms zero 1100mm better because its more in my price range because im a kid
We'd recommend going with the less expensive option if you can't afford $399.
Was this one an SMC HV pack? Can only use SMC HV at max voltage if your esc can take HV, otherwise you lose 15% of stated capacity if you charge to 4.2v a cell. Says so on their website. CHNL is fine for all PNP applications.
We got eight minute flights out of the SMC packs charged to 4.2v. There's no reason for us to buy additional batteries.
What about the 1100mm version?
We don't have it.
I have all FMS Zero fighters,1100mm Zero so good!
Does this came with lights
If you see 'em in the vid, they're on it!
@@TwoBrosRC cool
Fms discontinued this model for a while. I wonder why
We had no idea it was discontinued at any point.
just move the cg back then ? why so much bickering about it... i've flown mine off a 3000mah 4s and got it as tail heavy as i like it
🆗
I am a gyro loving FM-er. I’ll put a gyro on a paper airplane.
No U
Yep
Sad that RC flying is a dead hobby thanks to government regulators who work for corporations and not the taxpaying majority.
It's dying because of people with poor attitudes towards new technology and people, not because of government regulations.
