On todays episode of understanding Flite Test:
"Winter's coming in hot" = Winter weather is approaching quickly.
"Back on the build train" = We have started building kits again.
"Glue globulations" = A large amount of hot glue required to fix a broken airframe.
"Nom noms" = Rubber bands/zip ties for repairing broken airframes?
Lol love the vids guys! Finally ordered my Scout SBK and floats! Can't wait to get it together 👍
beautiful
You guys are getting crazier every episode and having more fun exponentially - love it!! This was so fun to watch. 😆👍🏼
Next challenge: throttle on a switch. 0% or %100 no in between😂😂
OH i like it! ;)
FliteTest Haha yes!
This is an amazing idea!
Exactly what I was thinking! Like what Quadmovr did.
That's what i have setup on my Phoenix 2000. I use throttle stick for flaps and crow.
Alex & Stefan Dynamic Duo! The highest ratio of laughs per minute (LPM'S) You guys are the best period.
I love to see FliteTest people flying FliteTest designs. I fly FT planes almost exclusively, and it's a blast to go out with a buddy, pass our transmitters back and forth and take turns trying to one-up each other. Or maybe we'll just play a game of catch, doing wingtip catches/launches with a Versa or Bloody Wonder or Tiny Trainer until we run out of either batteries or airframes. The joy of flying with friends is a real thing, and FliteTest does a great job capturing that.
"Winter is coming in hot"
Things only Alex says lol
I tell you what, that is just the tip of the iceberg! haha
That drone footage with your dog at the end was one of the coolest snippets of film I have ever witnessed!
Barely built planes, Unstable aerodynamics, Fly Flat Out Challenge, Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum (You decide which is which), Epic Confirmation that Steel Poles are Harder than Foam, this Vlog delivers seasonal fun and laughs. Great job guys. Here is wishing all of you and and your Flite Test Guys, Gals and Families the very best Christmas and Joyous New Year. My wishes for you in the New Year are continued success and increasing fun filled adventures.
Stefan's laugh cracks me up 😂
Wish he was my brother.
You gotta love Stefan laughing,he just brings a smile to your face. Even better slowed down in his 'demonic' voice.
The arrows are honestly the best ft planes I have ever built I built 3 of them. (not that I've built alot) but I really like it. Its fun, durable, fast, and easy to build. I don't like the battery door though seems to always come unlatched during flying and there's not alot of space inside for battery.. But never the less I love it. Keep up the good work ft!
File's Flyin' I built a twin motor arrow and it flies great
Twin motor?! Where did you put em on the wing tips? haha
File's Flyin' nah, they were a little farther out than the servos
Cool!
OH very nice! Files Flyin' WE LOVE the arrow, so glad you have had such a good time!... Benjamin, please create an article or a forum post and post your pics and flight footage... We would LOVE to see this dual motor arrow! ha ;)
These vlogs with Alex and Stefan always have me in tears. Hilarious.
love the LAUGH !!! ALSO, DOG running in SNOW ! playin all happy
The joy on that pupp running around at the end warmed my heart.
do you think you guys could make a dc-3, its a really iconic plane from world war 2 and id think it be really cool to see in RC form
Definitely! But it needs a paratrooper drop rack so you can lay a line of troops like d-day.
yeah that would be really cool!
You guy's should race the arrows through the woods. Thanks FliteTest for awesome Vlogs! :)
you two have the most infectious laughter. thanks for the giggles .
You guys completely killed my desire to build the arrow. My wife thanks you.
I used to be a fly hard pilot like you, but then I took an FT arrow to the knee :P
That awkward moment you are trying to go to sleep and you get that Flite Test notification. Also, now you need to make the banner box fly.
You neeeeeeeeed to make a plane out of that LOOOOOOOONG tube inside the banner!!!!!!!!! LOL That would be great!!!!!!!!!!!!! (I'm told not all of my thoughts should be expressed. 8(... )
Gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaary thats a fuuuuuuuuuuuuun idea!!!!!!! tuuuuuuuuuuuuuubular box plane ftw!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
lol what have i become? someone kill me....
I agree! Same idea when I saw him
Watching this again makes me realize how fast you guys got so far!
A Man, a Mavic, and his dog. Love that ending.
Mei vs Max who has better flight-line/hanger manners?
I want to see Stefan and Alex build the SE5a and Dr1 and fight them in the back yard. That would be epic. You guys are great!
That was some serious fun. I had tears in my eyes from laughing. Awesome video.
I'd bingewatch a series of you guys building a large scale WIG like the Caspian Sea Monster! One that could fire model rockets from the tubes and everything!
Always answer wifey! Good job hahaha
Those dang poles! Lol
I really miss my arrow... Best scratch build I ever tried.
looks like it flies like a cow in a tornado.
Cold and very windy here. I can deal with the snow and cold but the wind is tough. I enjoyed your video, you guys rock.
One of the best crashes in flitetest history comming in on 11:56
This is the part of flite test i miss the most. Alex and Stefan just goofin around for the vlog.
I would like to see scale FPV builds and techniques. As in, the Mustang with a scale FPV setup giving the mid-wing over the cowling cockpit view that a real pilot would have.
Haha, the box would be a fun challenge to make a fuselage with!
thought the same thing.
Thought the same thing, please, yes, so much this. XD
yes that would be cool
I laughed out loud when Alex hit the pole the second time
You guys seriously need to remove those poles 😭😂😂
haha! it would def improve our Flying... ha
And remove that wonderful "PING" sound?
hahaha stefan and his wife. love you guys
That was brilliant. That's how most of my challenges end 👍
THAT WAS GREAT!!!!
I love your channel, I love hyper power and like to keep it exciting!
insane crash you madman....love the dog footage!
Lots of laughs in this one.. Great episode guys..
flite test cub comes in the mail today, my little brother is going to have the best Christmas ever.
slo-mo Stefan laugh is the best
I find it funny that Alex said “Oh No!!!!” When he still has time to save himself!
the slo mo bits are great!
I love watching the antics coming from you guys.
You can make anything fly!!!
Watching you guys unbox your sponsor banners gave me an idea....
Make the banner box fly!! Like a rocket or vector motor. With enough angle of attack, you could do it!!!!
Hahahaha I love you guys!!! Hahahah I laugh almost all videos so entertaining and you guys are so cool I am so blessed I was able to meet you and hang for a day! Never a dull moment. Your doing awesome! And Stephan ur such a gymnast! Lol
The Arrow is, by far, my favorite FliteTest plane!!
Aha! Classic VLOG shenanigans. I hope Stefan called back!
Great vid guys
Great episode! Even though I helped people at Flite Fest West build them I haven't actually built one myself yet it looks like a fun little plane.
You guys are awesome, great fun video!
The Arrow is one of my favorite FT planes!
You two had me laughing great video guys, and happy holidays
Thank you for these amazing with us I hope one day I can make my own plans as well and be able to attend your events thank you for inspiring me not to give up on the dream of this Hobby
I'm working on designing plans for the Grumman f6f hellcat and Mitsubishi A6m Zero (my first warbird) and they would make great foam board airplanes, maybe even a way to test retracts that you could put in future builds.
I already told Austin this, but everyone builds their own ft 3d with fpv setups and then run an rc red bull air race. It's has to be at the shop, and each plane has an onboard lap time sensor. Add the flag poles as a slalom section and a Paradigm PPG pylon into the course and you have yourselves a challenge!
you guys are crazy. I love it
Do it again
Chuck
Working at FT looks like the dream job! I bet you guys stay in after work just to fly in the FT field! XD
FT Super Bee build between you two!!!! and fly hard
Woah that’s some crazy wind or really high rates! Alex, about 102 vlog’s ago you did air to air shots from 2015. Think you could throw together some 2017 archived footage, love seeing your guys’ air to air videos.
good job guys, i want to start flying planes so this is the channel to watch, awesome job
Awesome job guys.
i still love the slowmo laughs
Yay another fly as hard challenge!!!
I'm on the floor over here, that wing hit something and it was still in the air lmao
I wish I could go fly outside, without freezing to death...
On a side note, fast and low is one of the must fun combinations possible with an RC plane!
I heard that Microbuilder! Low and Fast is BOMB! ;) . Heres to wishing you more flying fun in LESS cold weather! ha
Only 3 long months to go! lol Thank goodness for indoor flyers.
FliteTest maybe its time to come back to Florida then ;)
I live in Key west... 86 degrees today lmao.
Great video! Keep it up guys
Nut's-house... well done!
Masterpiece challenge. Paint a picture with a quad. Fpv
long range with a mighty mini challenge!!
Hey guys! I'd love to see a triple threat pilot challenge! 1 pilot has 1 axis to control either a plane or drone... and perform tricks and things... it would be a team game with 3 per side. Chur from New Zealand! Shout out to NZ fans on your next vlog!
It would be awesome if you guys could do a video on the equipment you use. Hot glue guns, prop balancers, chargers, scales, paint, any tools or materials. I know you've talked about what a beginner could/should get, but it would be cool to see what you guys personally use.
It seems like it was yesterday when you guys put a Christmas tree on a quad. Man time flys...
awesome episode.... poor wing ;)
Love you 10 minutes. :D
Definitely more builds....It's winter now
Build two of those and double stack them like a biplane. Great video as always
hehe Cool and Stefan sound like Alex in the Slowmo Part Rofl
Lol always answer for the wife!!! 😂
12:03 at this moment he knew he trucked up
Flite test guys please design unswept mini wing for fpv based on diff. thrust like the super bee. I need a simple small build that's gonna do crazy speed like a quad and having some yaw. 4s stuff please ;) Take it as winter challenge or make it then challenge a quadcopter on a simple track. Nice video btw!
Hey guys, I'd love to see some more videos on the faomy builds with troubleshooting. In the build videos they seem to fly perfectly first try. Every build I've done I've had all sorts of issues and I've found it really hard to progress past them since I usually have no idea where to start troubleshooting. Would be great to go further into the issues Alex mentioned: slop in the control surfaces and potential issues with vertical stabilisers. Why are they problems, how can you spot them and what can you do to fix them?
This was awesome. How small and light a flying wing can you make?
You should do a full throttle challenge flying through the white gates that were up in the beginning of this. Something like full tilt obstacle course with something like the duster and rip slinger.
Idea: Make those shipping boxes fly!
Hi great video guys!!
Haven’t even got all of my quad stuff yet and I already want an arrow!!
this must be the best job ever
When did Alex become a madman? Great vid!
That was awesome hahaha
4S on a red bottom and a 12A ESC, I guess that slowdown was thermal protection :)
haha!
Jealous, not of your arrows but that your still able to fly! The onset of winter has brought on non stop gales and rain and in some parts major snow here in the UK, haven't been able to fly my planes or helis for well over a week so far and having major withdrawals!
T^hat was a scream of terror!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hopped up old fogey fpv racing, GO!
Love the video awesome
The banner box would be a great fuselage. Hey who put that pole there? LOL
That was an awesome crash brother
Make snow art and record using the mavic above! Timelapse it, it would super cool. Need snow though...
Birds are ridiculously light and yet they are able to fly when it is very windy.!
