Thanks for another great review Chris. With mine on full flaps and low throttle I could fly by like a blimp. She does really good aerobatics as you mentioned. The bright yellow and big size may be helpful for those who have eyesight restrictions or orientation issues with small planes.

The big E-flite birds are very nice. Still enjoying your old 150 in Iron eagle trim. Nice flying T-28. I flew one of the V-1 28's when they first came out. You can't go wrong with a T-28.

Awesome video Chris, I love the style you got going on for the plane reviews. I have the older T28 CZ and I wish I knew that tip about the connectors sooner. I'm doing it by matching the tags on the connectors one by one. Keep up the good work on your channel.

Painted mine yellow 6 years ago love the yellow ! This plane for me is one of the best flying planes ever, I have 2 new in box incase of losing one so that I will always have a C Z T-28 !

[leozengy]

Nice review Chris. Yes, bigger does fly better

[airhammer]

I like the connectors. The plane is great too ;-). Good stuff Chris, AH..

[briankeirns]

Great video as usual. One of the things I enjoy most is how you fly scale. Slower control movements, realistic takeoff and landing. Great flying all around

[jamesbrown]

Cool video Chris! I’m a fan of the CZ T-28. Not really digging the yellow paint scheme though. Would be nice to see some spring loaded retracts at that price point. Then again, it’s always fun to do upgrades to personalize it. Thanks again for another cool informative video! Should be able to make it out to the field on Memorial Day. Hope to see you there!

That underbelly shot of the retracts was fire 🔥!

[Grossman]

I kind of hoped that with this plane coming and going out of stock for years that there would have been some improvements on it. Better gear and single plug connections as you did on yours. I remember seeing this bird years ago, even though is a great airplane, it's due for an upgrade.

[Hughejazshole]

Man, that took off in about 10 ft! Love it.

[easystar]

Great video and great plane. Well explained and well presented. I have the older red and white t28 and I'm still flying it 8 years later. I bought it in 2015 and its never gave me any trouble so far. Hope you enjoy your T28.

[Norminal]

Awesomeness. I have the tini trogan. You’re making me want one.

[papasplanes.]

Thanks for another great video. And thanks for the links. I am buying this plane and definitely getting the softer tires and the wiring harness.

[HenryL]

Very nice video never heard of the thunder connectors, also a scale prop would be nice 😅

[jcb]

nice flight ! hope you've gotten settled in and enjoying the area...👍

[iansummers]

Yeah another great review Chris
Nice touch with your wiring connectors, wiring can get real messy with some of these planes with all the options.

[easystar]

I have just received the thunderbolt connectors and they make things a lot simpler. I wouldn't have known about them only i saw this video. Many thanks.

[IceMan]

Nice Big Bird at least that's what I'm painting for the pilot name. I agree they should have added a front nose door for the price. Still a great flight and video.

Oh man, I'm so excited for the Legend Hobby one.
