This plane is too fast for the living room, so check out my mod to resolve this issue at 15:40.

Epic video! Your content is fun and very informative. I love how the cuts are minimal so there are no random cuts everywhere and they have a smooth flow. Good job and keep it up!
Thank you for the kind words! I'm glad you feel this way. Sometimes I wonder, since I don't spend a lot of time with editing software. In fact, I've had VERY bad luck with editing software...I just use "FFMPEG" and MSDOS to splice my videos together. Most of what your see is a kid need a diaper change, or one of us gets a phone call, or this sort of thing. I'm sure you get it, but filming with four young children is more than a little challenging!
Brian Phillips no worries, I understand. Just keep up the good work!
You are a MASTER at using tape to improve the performance of RC planes.......T.Y. for this and prop balancing using tape on the sport cub video.......GREAT "REMOTE CONTROL" TEACHING!!!
Thanks Lee! Just call me Red Green - Clear addition - LOL!!! Glad I could help you out!
Thank you guys.
Thank YOU G Bro!!!
Thanks guys !
You're welcome! Thank YOU!!!
Same remote as the old Air Hogs Aero Ace. Love these dinky 2ch planes
Cool not to get off the subject but you have an awesome house! Fly On!
Thanks Slugo! It's been a LOT of work and money, but we love our home ;) If you're interested, we have a House Build Series...you might get a kick out of it, and you'll for sure see more of the house then we cover in our little flying videos :)

You sound and have the humor lingo that sounds very close to Jack Black! That's a good thing. Very entertaining.
Thanks Stephen! I'm glad you enjoy the videos!!!
Nice review
Thanks!
@@BrianPhillipsRC i ordered 1 :)
Hi Brian, great video thanks I’ve got something similar to this by parkzone.... remember them, I’m going back a bit now unless parkzone was only available in the uk, it is called the ember 2 great little plane I’ve since made a few of these myself using ESC’s and motors salvaged from crashed umx planes with limited success of course😂😂 but your plane looks great fun right out of the box ready for indoor flying thanks once again, best wishes, Chris
For sure! It's super easy to get it flying fairly easy.
czcams.com/video/fgf72jEbTiY/video.html ....they let the cat out of the bag at the end forecasting the Vapor ;) Horizon Hobby has come way out of the nerd zone since this was filmed - LOL - but sometimes I wish they'd go back to being more nerdy...
nice video, and i like your camera crew, i was expecting some crazy camera shake when following the plane, but it was nicely filmed.
Thanks - you're right about that! Megan, my wife, and camera crew, is very good! You should see her film an F-16 flying 8 feet out in front of us at 100+ MPH...
@@BrianPhillipsRC I think already did, after i watched this vid, i browsed and watched a few of your other vids, the huge f16 one was also very cool. Im a drone guy, but your videos are very interesting and fun.
Your wife, I mean camera crew actually let you fly that one in the house without regrets
For sure - This was totally weak compared to all the other crazy stuff I've flown in the house! I had an old Blad CP1 (I think that was the model)...pretty big, and I didn't know how to fly AT ALL - crashed into the cabinets, and I was banished to the basement or garage from then on - LOL...this was back in two houses ago...
Nice
thanks :)
Hi, nice review.
By the way, you were trying to test the voltage using that lipo battery checker.. it wouldn't work.
Because that checker, minimum operating voltage is 2S .. 1S voltay can't power it up.
Use a multi meter, or a 1S specific battery checker (that's one good one from Aokada)
I just used it today for a 1S 400mAh with a Losi connector. IT worked just fine, but the pins have to reach. Some of these really small sockets are too small to allow for contact.
@@BrianPhillipsRC thanks for your feedback, let me try mine again; as I recalled, it wasn't displayed the voltage properly with 1S, as I comparing the reading with a multi meter.
Subed ;)
Thanks! Welcome Orchestra Nation!!!
THIS WAS THE DAY BEFORE MY B DAY
It was an early Birthday Present - glad you got it ;)
I like that yellow garbage bag
Me too!
Can you pease tell me by looking from the front of the plane , what is the rotation direction of the motors? thanks
They both go clockwise, when looking at them from the front of the plane.
If you're looking at them from the rear of the plane, they turn counter-clockwise.
@@BrianPhillipsRC , thanks for rapid response as usual!!!!
is this the same for all twin plane you have or just for this one?
forgot to ask , are those 6mm or 7mmx20 motors?
thanks again!
How long is the charge time because it doesn’t seem to be too long?
Seems to be about 10-15 minutes. But flight times are a lot lower on mine, since I have a huge amount of extra drag on each of the wings.
The Mrs. after flying on sims for about 8 hours?😳
...not sure what you're saying...
@@BrianPhillipsRC thank you for the personal reply, I am wondering how your wife would fly after practicing in a rc flightsim.
Hello , i lost my propeller for my mini train star (bigger one). Do u know where i could find spares ?
I always check the links in the video description, then check down below to see if they're offering similar. If not, you gotta start digging. If you still can't find one, gotta make a trip to a local hobby shop and see if you can find something. Fortunately, these props are SUPER small, so you can quite literally MAKE ONE, if you have too. I try to use QUAD props, since they're super easy to get your hands on.
@@BrianPhillipsRC tnx
Christmas Treeeeeee
Oh yeah! Still up - we like Christmas ;)
@@BrianPhillipsRC well everyday seems like christmas for you with santa bringing a new toy. I got my mavic mini and jumper t16 transmitter long before christmas and i still javent opened the boxes. Might put my tree back up and put them under there.
Hello Brian,😁😁😁😁🍻🍻🍻the litle Airplane its, super
I agree, very nice little plane - super fun, but still somewhat limited. I long for a proper 5-6 channel plane with flaps and retracts this size. Technology is coming along nicely....let's hope FAA Remote ID doesn't ruin the industry...but if it does, I guess it'll make an outlaw out of MOST of us!!!
Do u like rechargeable double a and triple a baterries
I used to use them years ago, but haven't had any rechargeable AA and AAA batteries for a long time.
hi brian just thinking if you are anyone else can help me out iv got a old futaba TC7P transmiter 35MHZ im having problems getting a receiver that will work with it iv already tried 2 with no luck any help would be great.
cheers mick
This plane isn't using crystals, that I know of, it's got a 2.4GHz transmitter. I could be wrong...
So the green light is only there to state that it’s charging?
It appears to indicate that the battery is hooked up and the transmitter is charging it, as the green light goes out when it's done charging. Not sure if this is a response from monitoring the voltage OR if it's just a timer circuit.
If I can remember I saw a small rc plane and it wayyyyyyyyy more stable and it flew slower
Okay.
Is that plane easy to fly inside
Easier than flying the Twin Otter inside - LOL ;)
No plane I fly inside is super easy, but with my mods, it's pretty manageable if you have a big enough room.
can you pls try to repair your a320 or show it to us in your next vid pls pls pls :) ;)
Frankie, I know you want to see it badly, but I probably won't be working on that project for a while. Have you watched the whole video playlist?
How many volantex u have
I think I have 7 or 8...but I've had TWO Volantex ASW28's, so not sure of the correct count. Not all of them are RTF either.
Why did u not fly that plane outside
Because it was a blizzard outside if I recall...and if I could fly this one outside, honestly, I'd be flying a better plane. But don't misunderstand, this plane is very fun, and capable of some flight outside, when it's CALM...
U said that plane not easy to fly it looks easy to fly
Buy one, and see what I'm talking about ;)
Kinda disappointed. Been looking for an indoor flyer and was hoping this would fly better and did not need too big a space. With all the wing/tail/rudder/elevator bending necessary to get it going it reminds of one of those capacitor powered free flight gliders. Except with a remote. The KFplan might be a better option.
It's actually really nice. I had some more time with it, and even my 10 year old has been having a blast flying it around! Sorry if I wasn't clear about this on the video, but it is a winner! So much better in hind sight than the inum (original...small one)
sorry to bother you again do you know whir to by one?
Yes, check the description, but I'll link here for you Frankie...

Amazon - amzn.to/2QJtfaV
Damn it's been discontinued unfortunately :(
I'm very sorry to hear this...we've done some other indoor style planes which are a blast to fly - Vapor bit.ly/3ROOdE0 - I know it's a bit more expensive, but this plane has been around for some time now, and it's really fun!
@@BrianPhillipsRC Thanks for the reply. I just ordered the basic BNF night vapor. I'm getting it so I can fly something at work and impress (annoy) my coworkers. I already have a bag full of the little battery's these take so that worked out nicely. Love the channel btw :D
they never designed that radio to have a rf link
That case was in fact designed for RF link, You can buy one now with RF still...but harder to find. The 2.4ghz is a newer model, so be careful when you search and buy one, you don't want the "old one"
That airplane is kind of silent
small props, but still pretty fast moving!
if you cont repair your a320 could you sign the bottom of it and send it to me pls. it is because of you and your a320 that i got a huge love rc planes every day i get home from school and fly if i can and if your a320 is broken i can fix it and fly it. from your bigest fan!!!! :) ps if you say yes i will give you my aderess and pay for shiping
Frankie, I really appreciate your enthusiasm, and I'm honored to have you and many other fans...but you probably already know by now, that I'm a hoarder...my house is like a giant plane check valve...once they come in, they never leave!!!
Some day I will probably fix her up, but not sure when this will happen.
ok thank you for your reply. can you pls show it to us in your next vid.

Google says $59.00
If you're gonna buy one, please consider buying gone from the links in the description. This will help support our channel.
That’s a tiny plane
for sure!
1st? Soo Is The Next One Gonna Be The Peeco Size? It's A Real Hummer Bird That Makes Megan Giggle! And It's Remote Controlled, Hmmm Maybe Some Date Night Flights? Hmmm-mmm Maybe Exchange Props For Tape Tabs On Twin Screw Shafts? LMAO
Not a bad idea John. Maybe it would slow down the prop, but still deliver plenty of push...although, I have a way of over-doing things JUST enough to catch them on fire - LOL!
@@BrianPhillipsRC He-He-He-He... You Missed The Whole Plane Vibating Point!
