@ 23:06 "tip" you can always throw old razor blades in the slot inside your bathroom medicine cabinet, that's what it's there for. Simply falls down In between the wall studs. Great build video btw. Would love to get one some day. 👍🤘

I just build this one from scratch, beside being way heavier than expected (surely not the same foam as ft), it flew so well that I use it for fpv ! Thanks FT for keeping the hobby a child dream :)

I love when Austin comes in, the dog barks, and Bixler is totally calm as a cucumber. Thanks Peter and Josh! building this bad boy tonight, 5+ years later! I've built many FT planes (see the Sea Duck video on my channel, I like how it turned out), but I'm way too excited for this one

Who in the hell in their right mind gives these vids a "thumbs down?"
They must be worse than hitler.

Thanks Flight Test for all you guys do.

Just received my MG speed build kit in the mail today. The kit was cut up BEAUTIFULLY! I can't wait to start building it.

This by far is my favorite build so far. I would like to see a short Video that shows mistakes and how you overcame them. Like this one he did get burned by the Glue and you did state that you had said easily five times. I like how it was real and not some hype video. You guys do a lot of Good thank you.

Peter's mini cargo twin looks like a lot of fun.... and it even hovered!   Love the differential thrust - I've got to get a twin motor plane.

Started this build and 70% done. Will be fitting  3 blade props and some small mods. I think it will look cooler. Thanks for sharing. GL and best wishes.

Josh, Peter, I followed a lot of Larry Ross' threads on RCG. Great stuff and a helpful guy. If you hadn't heard, he is no longer with us unfortunately.  Okay thumbs up to FT for your great support of the hobby!

Finally! This is such a nice plane. Thanks Peter.

Dear Flite Test,  
I'm 12 and I have been in the rc hobby for about 2 years. my first aircraft was a blade mcx. I then got a mqx, a champ, and now have my first 3d 4ch plane a UMX Sbach 342 3d... After crashing and fixing i can now do hovers, knife-edges, flatspins and of course rolls, after practicing every day for 2 weeks. I would LOVE to see a mini FT 3d... I love building foam gliders and I think I'm ready for a plane, but I only fly in a small park so a mini is perfect. Thanks!!!

[marto]

great build Peter and Josh. I have already built one of Peter's cargo planes and it's my favorite to fly. Looks like I'll have to build the smaller version as well. Thanks again guys for the great build video. Removable nose, that brilliant. Cheers from Australia

Thanks for not waiting until Monday!

I'm not really into rc planes but I really enjoy these videos and I am really tempted to buy one of your kits just because I stumbled onto your videos on youtube.

[marcuswetterbro]

this plane and a light FPV setup = awesome

GJ Peter, coolest Flite Test plane yet.

[DelDredd]

Hi, nice video.

I hope you put a retaining screw in the Rudder Servo horn before flight as it did not have one fitted while you were building it.

I had done the same once thinking I will fit it later, the horn came off the servo in flight, luckily it was the rudder on a 4 channel plane so no problem, if it had been on the elevator the plane would have been smashed up.

[CarminesRCTipsandTricks]

Outstanding Mini! Great job Peter!! 👏👏👏👏
The ONE thing that always bugs me (NOT about your design!!), is WHY are most of these Planes STINGY with Spar strength?? 😳😧 I mean, the Spar is usually within a TINY fraction of the CoG...
Extra weight THERE won't make any handling difference!!

I always use MORE wood there, and simply bump up the power a little to compensate. 😉

One thing I do is use velcro to attach the receiver so it can easily be moved to another plane/helicopter. I use a hitec aurora 9 and the receivers are not cheap.
