I've heard of this method before. I've never used it, nor do I recommend it. You have to train yourself to not think of your left or your right, but the airplanes left and the airplanes right. Once you do that, it becomes second nature. Happy landings!

@@richard1472 it becomes second nature either way. It’s just an easy little trick to help in the beginning

@@michaelyoung4550 best trick is to visualize you are inside the cockpit!

What does it mean?..

​@@jimbob8973if the plane is tilting to one side or the other, pushing the stick toward the wing that is dipping will level it out.

Yep. That is the best feeling ever. This vid brought me right back to my first RC flight about 30 years ago. The pure joy and excitement, and relief of getting that thing back to Earth in one piece after the total stress of the flight. I was jumping up and down in excitement. My next 10 flights weren’t as successful though. This was back in the day before “safe” technology to help you, and it was a gas powered plane of course. My first plane was a Sturdy Bird which was (almost) indestructible even though I managed to destroy a couple of them. I’m still flying all there years later. What a feeling, and it made me so proud and excited for him. What a day!!!!!

Thanks! You can do it! Just go get some practice in.

Right? This plane even has something you can install so it will land itself

Maybe! You are on the other side of Atlanta than I am.

Thanks a lot! I just kinda do my thing and put a camera in to what I'm doing.

And it works well ...👍😎

Thanks. I had it out of safe for a bit. I'll practice and I'll get better.

Its a great one! You will love it!

Thanks! I'm super happy with the landings. That was what I was so worried about.

Thanks! Its an easy plane to fly and I had a good teacher I think.

I recently purchased this plane, haven't had a nice day to try it yet. I was also told it might be hard to land in safe. any tips for a soon to be solo attempt with no training?

Thanks! Maybe one day I'll build a balsa wood aircraft.

Thanks!

I saw that at the hobby shop. I wanted a bush plane. I'm going to put flaps on this one and practice with it.

@@outsourcedrc seems awesome. I’ll probably work on flying in intermediate mode before I look at another plane. Next plane will probably have flaps. For now though, I’m just glad to have something better than the old air hogs planes I used to fly as a kid.

No. I use a DX8e.

I want the new A10 so bad. I just dont need an EDF for my first plane.

@@outsourcedrc hey man I hear you. I am thinking of a small 3 channel plane, then moving to the a10 and maybe making a flitetest plane. Thanks man! Keep up the great vids

lol right?

Thanks. I had it out of safe for a bit. I'll keep practicing with it.

This plane does have an auto landing feature, but it requires a sensor. You won't need it. This plane is a fantastic first plane. It's easy to fly. It's easy to land. Just make sure you have enough room. The only times I have crashed it, were when I was flying in a area I really shouldn't have been. It's survived every crash with only minor nicks and dings. Just be sure you buy extra props. You are probably going to break the little gray panels on the landing gear also if you crash.

No. Not really. My friend bent the wings up slightly but I dont think it did anything. It's easy to fly. This is one of the best beginner aircraft.

I bet that with the wing struts, you could secure the attaching screws at the outer most position of the slots, which might exert a modest bit of upward pressure on the wings. Probably not much, but more than nothing I would guess.

Thanks! I dont think the footage is great but I liked the lesson.

I don't think it does. Safe just prevents you from rolling it over in the air basically

GPS will protect against losing orientation. Allows you to setup a virtual fence. Cost about $50 at Horizon Hobby. Of course, having all these safeguards can delay the full learning experience. Then again, "real" experience is probably more expensive 😉

I always do. I've been playing games and driving RCs for over 20 years

My transmitter isn't the stock transmitter. I don't know what it comes with. I have not lost signal on any of my aircraft. I'm not getting the gps module

You answered the question about the transmitter I asked a few minutes ago 😉 I plan to get the GPS because it's relatively cheap, and should keep me from losing the plane. I like the idea of a virtual fence.
