Love your channel Jimmy. Is it bad that I say "Can I get a CLEAR PROP!" everytime I turn on a house fan?

[sailorstu]

That may just be your best landing ever Jimmy,
Glad you are having fun with your children

[stmanpaul]

Jimmy I didn’t think I would like this video, I really wanted to hear about the 310 project. But I ended up watching it and smiled through 80% of it. Your attitude and the way you approach things just makes me smile! Good job.

You're a natural RC pilot Jimmy. Kudos for shining the light on model flying with your great passion and enthusiasm.

The Habu STS is a good beginner EDF jet, Very docile yet moves pretty good. Having the SAFE on the flight controller can get you out of a bad situation with the flip of a switch.
I have flown radio control planes with several full-scale pilots and most of them picked it up quickly while some could not grasp it at all.
RC is a great part of the aviation "hobby". Glad to see you trying it . Keep it up !

I love EDF’s and the Habu is a fantastic first jet. You will soon be heading down the dark path for more speed. You’ll fall in love with the sound of a 90mm fan. Welcome to your addiction. Maidens aren’t stressful at all, right? 😂 Check out the Joe Nall, Triple Tree Aerodome event. 5 or 6 flight lines broken down in category’s or aircraft and or style of flying.

Well done Jimmy! I just knew for sure you were gonna bin that thing!

Jimmy " 🤣 I don't think I was breathing either while you were flying the jet. Great job on bringing it down safe.

I always loved and dreamed about the rc world of aviation then realized the cost of the real nice and cool looking ones mind blowing how much money can be buried into such a wittle package

Congrats Jiimy on ur new RC Plane. The Kids look like they had fun, Watching PAPA fly the Jet.
And u didn't crash-it. Great Job Jimmy...

Nice flight! Who needs a hairdryer when you have the RC jet!!!

Since there appears to be a lot of experienced pilots at the field, one of them may possibly have tandem controllers that will allow the 2nd "Flight Instructor" to assume control and guide you through the complex muscle coordination while learning to fly. You can also get a "high end" 3-axis gyro to stabilize the flight to control the plane.

Thanks for sharing!

RC has come a long way. I bought one of the small planes recently and it nearly flies itself... I say nearly as I crashed it pretty quick. I like it except it only likes perfectly still days. Its size is the issue. But it is fun.

Nice to see a happy aeroclub!!....great bunch of guys!

[ericgregory]

Im surprised! The RC skills have gotten a lot better!!!! The bigger ones are usually easier to fly, not as wind sensitive. You transitioned to the ducted fan well!

[fernandojosepraviameza]

Thanks Jimmy, for all this video! Blessing! I'm watching from Nicaragua! I like to see all things you do! Great time you are living there! Thank you!

I recently got into RC flying since my aviation degree program is working with UAS and drones, so they have us doing not only quadcopters but RC airplanes. I recently put together a Flite Test Mini Arrow (flying wing) and that thing is scary fast. I also bought a UMX Turbo Timber but it is so light, it really needs calm winds to fly. I have to hand it to the RC gurus, for us licensed pilots, we have to unlearn a lot of things to fly outside the airplane! Throttle down on final to land is not good! (As I am repairing my Turbo Timber from the nose planting I gave it. However, shortest landing roll ever! CRUNCH!

Enjoyed the RC flight. Keep working at it. Congratulations!!

[garyjohnson]

Reverse orientation is the hardest part of high speed R/C....where is right and left as it heads towards you!! ( My first rc was a jet, yard sale landing!...then I got a Cub, ahhh much better.)

[jeffmccrady]

that is awsome jimmy!!! i love rc planes!! everything i flew was piper cubs, but got my first 70mm f-4 phantom?? i couldnt get a CLEAR PROP!! and drove it right in the ground!!! expensive mistake! lmao!!! congradulations on flight!!!!

[PhilipBender]

Nice job Jimmy. I fly Rc plane and jets myself and you looked good for a beginner
