  • This plane is so very relaxing to fly. Could be the perfect large WARBIRD plane for someone who has recently learned how to fly RC Planes. It has the REFLEX stability system in it which means even a beginner could fly it!

    I have always admired the P51. I think it was the ones flown in the John Wayne movie The Flying Tigers. We had one here in the Flight Museum in Houston, but was destroyed in a crash at Galveston a few years ago. You could take flights in it with some money and a certified pilot, and that was what was taking place when it crashed just off shore in the Gulf of Mexico. It was a sad day for everyone. This rc plane is so beautiful and you flew it well. Enjoyed the demo. 😊

    OMG!! That plane is absolutely gorgeous. Love the gear. It actually sounds like real landing gear too. 80yrs later and still one of the sexiest birds in the sky. I loved the grass landing too. The fact that the gear has full built in suspension gives you the confidence to attempt a possible rough landing on a maiden flight. I'll probably never be able to afford it but thanks for letting me fly it through your hands. Another great video Steve.

    Usually for take-off on aircraft full flaps are NOT used, as at maximum they generate more drag than lift (not what you want on take off). So you should find that it takes off faster using only partial flaps, not full flaps.

  • @markhyde43
    @markhyde43 Před rokem +1

    Glad to see the V8 still being promoted. It's been kind of passed up and buried beneath all the newer generation P-51s.
    I bought my first FMS 1450mm P-51 Red Tail V8 back in 2016. Yep. The V8 is that old. I crashed it hard in 2018. Bought another in 2018. Crashed it a year later.
    I now have another pre owned one that i am currently flying and have a new one i bought two years ago.... still new in the box.
    So yes the V8 had been around a while and had been left behind by the newer constructions. Newer versions like the E- Flites don't have all the wiring mess for the wings. They just have plugs built into the wing mating joints. But i still think this older FMS model looks the best as far as themeing.
    You can tell the V8 is a bit old because of all the assembly required (installation of control horns...ect).
    *But*.... They still make improvements to the V8. In 2018 they upgraded the landing gear retracts and in the last couple of years they added the Reflex system to it. Still a V8 though. Will always have one in my hangar.
    Just replace the FMS 5240 540KV motor with a FMS 5240 580KV for considerable more speed and climbing power.

    Nice review, and assembly instructions.
    1. Were you using the Reflex stab? It is important that you mention this since it transforms these warbirds into pussycats, making them much easier for inexperienced flyers. Since it only has 4 outputs, what kind of receiver are you using, and what wiring so that you are able to operate the flaps, gear and lights? Do you turn off Reflex for take off?
    2. How come you did not land with flaps down?
    Thanks!

    • @CAPTAINDRONE798
      @CAPTAINDRONE798  Před rokem +2

      In some vids I point out that since pretty much all my RC Plane videos are MAIDENS... even the ones where I'm going TOP SPEED TESTING, and that I have to talk and keep the plane close, that I will often switch in and out of stability. Also, when you watch my plane flights they are not continous from take off to landing... much is edited out so as to keep the flight short and to the point, so any mention of REFLEX may end up on the cutting room floor. As for FLAPS... that is what you use to slow a plane down when you have a short smooth runway. If I tried to land with flaps on a non-smooth runway there is the chance I'd bounce back up in the air if speed is not slow enough. I rarely use FLAPS for landing unless I suddenly have a short runway and the plane is coming in hot.

      Nope, you need to have some basic flying skills. Start with one of the RTF kits I’ve reviewed, or get a glider. Here is a hint… RC planes with wings on top, called HIGH WING PLANES are much easier to fly then planes with wings on the bottom, like this Mustang.
