Cox PT-19! I loved that little control line plane. Have great memories flying it with my dad as well. 😁

@@JustPlaneNutzRC very cool, was it Cox ?

Cox engine? Plastic plane? My older brother had one, loved the smell of the exhaust. I think Cox had their own fuel but I can't remember anymore

Thanks again Adam!!! We do have the unbox, build, and radio setup coming, basically later this week. The upload wasn't done when we wanted to release this video, so we decided we have to do it this way :(... BUT it was a GREAT BUILD!!!! Super easy, and super FAST!!!!!!

Right on! Thanks, and we do try hard to give the most information as we can, while also helping share our opinions at the same time. We appreciate you being here, and when you're getting ready to spend some cash, we can be "cheap insurance" ;)

Thank you kindly! Love this plane, and hope you get one!!!

Thank you sincerely! I agree with your sentiment - she is great!

Thanks, and yeah - but I'm torn...kinda want to find another WOOD prop that I can run on 6S. Not sure it exists.

She sure is!

Thanks!!! I think you're right about the 6S - maybe the additional power helped to keep more control authority while inverted, and at or near stalls.

Thanks for your support! We appreciate it!

We heard that a bunch of guys had control line PT-19's years ago. If you had one, you gotta get this one!!!

You're welcome. Thank YOU for watching them nouailhas!

Thanks Jim! She's a beauty!

Thanks, and we will love it - already love it, but like you said, it's strange but I DO have to get used to it.

Thanks! The 4K really helps, but I still want better image quality. Megan keeps the planes in frame, but lose a lot of fidelity with zooming. I'd like to find an optical zoom we can clamp on our smart phone, and still have it work. These smart phones have AMAZING cameras, until you zoom, then you get a lot lower quality cameras.

yeah, it cost more than a new car...but I guess when your life is on the line, sometimes you gotta bite the bullet and spend some cash. Super glad we made this move, and hope it works out the way we plan. This is all part of a much larger vision ;)

Yes, they did - I've been working on it since January 2022!

Thanks, and very much is!

Thanks again

Excellent choice, and yeah - loving it!

Yes - same if you're flying on 4S 5000mAh - which is PERFECT for the D18

Please, YOLO - OR if you're married, YOL'edO - You Only LivED Once - LOL ;) Thanks Brad - This is a great plane by the way! I wasn't as excited about this as "the brand" probably wanted me too be, since I had the P-47 Fun Scale in recent memory, but as it turns out, this plane has been everything I WANTED the P-47 to be, that it wasn't. Glad you're here with us still!!!

100% but it's kinda weird - my brain is like, "NO SOUP FOR YOU!!!", when I try to fly where they were...I almost CAN'T do it. I hope this will come with some time.

​@@BrianPhillipsRC Haha yeah you will eventually get used to dodging non-existent objects. 😁

100% thanks ;)

OHHHHHHHHH YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

I bet he did. These were crazy expensive as ARF's so this as a PNP is a great value.

That would be cool!

Actually, we were fighting over $$$ for about 5.5 months of it...the rest was waiting on scheduling the crews. They did it in about 2.5 weeks and about 0.5 day for taking everything DOWN ;) 7X Bucket trucks - that part was FAST

It is almost exactly the same, but I bet you had a heck of a lot more than $450 (inflation adjusted) in it - this is sold as an PNP!

LOL - thanks!!!

LOL - we already have 4 kids, and the oldest flies all the time ;) He is good, but doesn't quite understand how amazing an opportunity it really is to LIVE in a hobby shop - seriously...

Happy Halloween

LOL - Exactly the opposite - I paid one more HUGE bill!!!

Yeah, but you can fly for a long long time on a tiny bit of nitro!

After awhile, those motors get all gummed up by the castor oil after a time the oil gets rancid and sticky and the after-flight clean-up is a chore and the normal burning out of the glow heads.. I had a plane and 2 copters from Cox. I'm not into nitro. Too messy.

YES, I think the looks alone might be worth it...and I don't need to scream by at 100 mph with this plane. I love the way this one flew.

LOL - I was thinking of moving the wind sock pole to a different spot once they're done with finish work on the primary service move...which is now done (less some touch ups I'm fighting to get completed - minor stuff, really)

LOL - this is the opposite of my experience, but later in life, I believe the roles will flip ;) You can get kits, but they're hard to find.

I know!!! It's so strange, actually, but also wonderful!!!! Wish it wasn't so dang expensive, but glad it's done.

100% totally excited about it. We're finally seeing the view we thought we were buying, but we didn't take them down for that reason only...we wanted to give me a better crack at living for takeoff and landing with my PPG, and later my ultralight planes from the back lot, when we build the full scale runway

This plane is way better than I expected!!! Kinda makes me want to get a bigger one, and possibly plop a gas engine in it ;)

I would love to see that

Fought with them for about 7 months, and wrote eventually wrote them a $24,263 check. What a farce, right?

thanks!

At it again, Mr Reynolds - LOL!

We battled with the utility for about 8-9 months, but ultimately paid another $24,263 to do this. This was on top of the $35,000 ($25,000 our share) we paid for the lines to be installed about 3.5 years ago. This was yet another example of how a protected monopoly can really screw over the land owner. We're still very glad to be able to get them buried, but since they refused to bid the service underground initially, we were notable upset that we basically had to pay to install it all again.

It's uploaded, and we'll publish it soon. Sorry for the delay, sometimes our unbox, build, radio setup takes a lot longer to upload than the flights, so we miss our release times - super frustrating, but such is life on KZfaq ;(

You the man

PT-19 for sure!

100% So glad too ;)

We keep them. The basement is getting really full!!!

yeah!!!!

Hey Casey. Hey, we hay our property, if you weren't aware - Do you want to buy some Hay?

LOL - necessity is the mother of invention ;)

yes!

Yes, and thanks!

Fought with them for 8-9 months over the details, but eventually paid our utility $24,263 to move the primary service underground.

@@BrianPhillipsRC Nice job. So much better. Love your channel, very entertaining

100%!!!!

I'm not sure if you're asking a quesiton or making a statement, so I can't help too much Mike - sorry! Been doing this sense 1966. (Got it) So just the cost of the plane. - ??? (there's a link in the description...prices change so I don't talk about them on the video except in rare circumstances.)

I like the way it works on 4S!!!

Sorry about that! It took a little longer to get the Unbox, Build and Radio Setup uploaded. They should be released and viewable soon!

Only $24,263, paid in full before they would schedule the work. Also, keep in mind, this was in addition to the ~$35,000 we paid only a few short years about (3 year) when we were REFUSED a bid for underground service, despite this being "illegal" (against the "Tariff" they were obligated to operate under). Yep, protected monopolies at your service! Also, we couldn't keep any of the wire to sell for scrap, or any of the poles that we had JUST paid in full for...since that gets deeded to the company when you get service...even though we got no credit for any of this part. We have been fighting them since January of 2022, exercising every possible complaint short of arbitration or a law suit, even up to a formal complaint with the board of utilities (this took about 2.5 months), where we learned that the IBU believed we "didn't have standing" to complain they failed to bid underground service 3.5-4 years ago when the at time field engineer Bruce failed to bid stating "We didn't want to know how much it would cost for underground service". Keep in mind, WE INITIATED THIS PRIMARY SERVICE REQUEST, which we later had to pass off to the land owner, who was selling us the lot, since he was the only one at the time that could ORDER service changes, but everyone knows, WE PAID FOR IT (and to be fair, it was only about 1/3 of it at the time - $10,000, but later we ended up having paid ANOTHER 1/3 or slightly better when we bought the other property - for which we ALSO had been the first call to request primary service under or over it, since it was between us (our house) and the end of the road where the service was already available. So, basically, our only recourse was to fight, and we negotiated some money back when they admitted they erred in fleecing us into paying for the 9th, last, and totally unnecessary pole at the end of our street - the one that our neighbors had to look at for NO REASON, that spoiled their beautiful views for NO REASON. This was to minimize the cost the utility would bear if someone added to the power later, down the road...which is unlikely, but even if it happened, THEY would have been responsible, not us. This was worth a bit of "discount" as they claimed, but this discount, was admission of guilt, and we'll certainly use later when we find enough money or some great lawyer who wants to represent us in our suit against them. BUT, for now, we have to pay and pay we did. This is not totally unlike what we did when we first had to pay for overhead service. They basically refused to bid what we wanted, and they knew that we couldn't just wait around forever. We had set timelines to operate within for our "due diligence" period (where you can get bids for utility work before you buy property), and even after that, we had builder waiting for power to work (they didn't want to work on generators...and would have charged a considerable amount to do so). The utility will do this to a land owner or buyer in their due diligence period. They'll force you to make a decision, knowing full well, you have NO OTHER CHOICE, then knowing that they have the Board of Utilities to back them up, when they do it. As you know, we can't just wait into perpetuity for things to happen. I'm not going to waste years or decades waiting for them to change their mind, or admit their guilt, while I lose access to a safe landing strip, so we'll have to just pay up, then deal with it later. Know any good lawyers? ;) P.S. Ironically, the people at the utility have been wonderful to work with through this whole process, less one guy who decided to yell at our solar company across the yard, and scared the crap out of my wife - which made me more than a little angry - he was put in his place, and we shook, and went our separate ways. I think he felt pretty bad knowing how bad his company had screwed our family, after I told him about it...and I know everyone has a bad day from time to time.

@@BrianPhillipsRC Holy shit

You ever made any effort to ground those lines b/f you built and/or moved into the house?

yep, they are GONE!!!!!! Ohhhhhhhhh yeahhhhhhhhhhhh

No more plane limbo

I wouldn't suggest it. It's a quality plane that you could fly as a 3rd or 4th plane, no problem with SAFE, but it's also still pretty dang expensive to outfit for a beginner plane that, to be frank, is gonna get torn up. Here's some better BEGINNER choices we recommend all the time.

@@BrianPhillipsRC Thanks for the reply! Love the channel. This is the most helpful rc plane oriented channel I've ever seen!

They took down the power lines because I paid them tens of thousands of dollars to do it...

@@BrianPhillipsRC LOL...Well money can get most of our wishes granted!!

Soon

We had them put the primary service underground for a few reasons, the most important of which was my safety in flying PPG (powered paragliding) and also my plans for flying ultralight(s), and if all goes to plan - eventually GA aircraft from the full scale strip on the back portion of our property. In the mean time, I'll enjoy the clear flying area for RC, and the beautiful view we thought we were going to have when we bought this place ;) ...and there's the fact that we paid $24,263 to have the service relocated. This was after a $35,000 bill from three years ago to get the primary service ran down the road. They refused to bid underground service when we requested a quote, and since we were building our home, we had to get things working. We've been fighting about the price since January 2022 or so, but we extinguished all our possible remedies short of arbitration or a law suits, and I didn't want to wait another 2-3 years to deal with that crap, so we just paid the insane price and had them get the work done. We can and probably will fight them some day over their mistake leading to our burdensome cost, but for now, we wanted the service moved.

@@BrianPhillipsRC glad you got it sorted

LOL - They're GONE!!!!!! ;)

Yes, a while back - mostly grown out now, but it still looks terrible ;)

really

oh yeah!
