This is one of the Few Good Trainer videos. highly recommend his vids..

These are some of the best tutorials I've seen on RC flying on the net. Good work!

I enjoyed this simple tutorial, and will be doing a lot of practice on my simulator. Just the notion of nosing up a little before a barrel roll makes such a nice difference. Inverted flight will be a challenge for a while. Like my buddy says, "Just don't pull back on the stick while you're inverted", especially when I'm too low to correct. Thanks for putting the time into this.

hey, I want to say thanks. i did my first inverted this morn after watching this yesterday as well as good loops rolls .I am addicted!!

If you are commenting that he didn't do a "Barrel Roll" and don't have a separate video where you demo how to do a specific barrel roll (vs a roll) then you are a jerk. Great video, thank you for the post!

What an impressive series. I just love those little hints on what makes each maneuver look cleaner. I have an outdated version of Parallels on my Macbook Pro. I guess I'll be updating so I can add the Phoenix sim. I can now see that it's almost a requirement to learn 3D properly. THANK YOU!

age 57- brand new to RC, really like the control inset box and your narrative, thanks for teaching the old guys and great day !

What a fantastic series - just what I was looking for! I found out about it on one of the R/C forums today. Although I am a pilot with 15,200 of jet flight time and have a degree in aeronautical engineering, it didn't seem to count for squat in this hobby which I find to be more than challenging. Just finished by first 10 flights (Super Cub S & Radian) self taught and had no crashes, built up an Apprentice yesterday to transition to 4 channel flight, and according to tracking, a T-28 will arrive tomorrow. Now I've got to run and practice what I just witnessed with my Phoenix flight sim!!

Hi tnx for your videos. Good stuff. Just one point. You refer to this as a Barrel Roll. Sorry, it's not. It's a simple roll. I used to fly aeros with a Cessna Aerobat and Messerschmitt Monson when I could afford to fly! A barrel roll is a lovely corkscrew motion. Pitch down, turn off 20 -30 degrees, pull up till wing level with horizon, put in aileron gently to start her roll, at the top wings should once again be level with horizon as you continue down to original altitude., take off stick and resume horizontal flight. This is a graceful manoeuvre and would be worthwhile showing to all we budding rc pilots. Once again thanks for your input on this fascinating and absorbing hobby.

The best tutorial so far! 👍👍👍

Your tutorials are just awesome! A lot of things are now clear. Thanks and keep up the good work! :)

Thanks for this insightful tutorial!

Thank you very much, it's very appreciated.

Thank You, great vid. You make it easy!

Thanks man I flew helicopters mostly just getting into planes on the simulator now to kinda get hang of it. And I think I'm doin pretty well this helped with the basics.

What a great video, just what my son was looking for thank you! 🙏

Thanks. Appreciate your vids!!!

HAHA!!! I had no idea for the first few minutes that this is a simulator!! Well done!!

thanks man your tutorials are great

good work! more of this please

Thanks for the examples very helpful.

Great job, thanks & keep them coming :-)

thats actually not a barrel roll that is just a normal roll. In a barrel roll you pull down to a corner on the elevator/aileron gimbal (on mode 2 transmitters) and that makes the plane do a wide roll that resembles a barrel. thus the name barrel roll

Your videos are still the best learning videos available on the net! Any chance you do some more? I.e. rolling looping?

Great video perfect explanation and simple to understand Thanks

Hi there, great video. I am going to learn a lot, I know it. New to this and flying a a friends H King Bixler-like trainer. Is the barrel roll possible with such a slow flyer?

How about a split S right to left then left to right? Do you flip over at the top of the the loop? Thanks for your helpful videos.

Love the video. What sim are you using?

Thank you, I am starting with a Flyzone Beaver 4 channel, and your 4 channel tutorial helped a lot. I notice on your Basic Aerobatics tutorial that you don't use rudder much in the air. Would that depend on the type of plane? Thanks again, Chris

Thanks for your input bro. But, in all fairness. This is after basic flight and how to get up and down and around without and issue, everyone should have already learned that by now Haha.

Thankyou for my first tutorial. I live in Jersey u.k what’s the most popular C.D simulator can you recommend. Barry

does it matther or you roll right or left? Or do you spin faster if you turn with the propeller? Or is there no difference?

Nice Job. Excellent

I have a trick, I have no idea if it has an actual name but I call it whoopty loops. It's exactly like a loop-de-loop but when you get to the top or the Apex, Throttle Down and give full down elevator. When you do this the airplane moves backwards in the air at the top of the Loop and should come down just behind where it went up if you keep doing this the airplane stays in one spot.

Nice videos. But min Agree with the the other comments, first exercise is an Aileron roll. Barrel roll is different and more of an advanced exercise.

I have a UMX Turbo Timber and have flown it twice. But I have a limited area to fly over a pond, maybe an acre worth. I have been doing slow flight with full flaps, getting used to the plane and transmitter. Was wondering how to initiate loops and rolls and your video made it look simple. I note you didn't use rudder, just ailerons?

What do you think about the Sky Surfer from BananaHobby? I've been think of buying one. It would be my first plane.

Excellent videos. I would like to see the technique demonstrated for doing a "show pass", also known as a photo pass. Thanks.

thank you very helpful

Very nice video! Need to go back to my simulator.... 😬

More please. (All those criticizing.. post your own videos, maybe you’re better, maybe we can criticize you!)

that's good advise man,quite a while ago i was flying my acro wot,after only flying it one other time,i had the plane inverted and like an idiot i pulled down stick with the elevator which is backwards obviously,and she crashed pretty bad,so that kind of gun shyed me away from doing that again.

Do you have any videos on tight formation flying with RC? Are there any RC teams that practice close formation and aerobatics with RC Jets. I have yet to see any videos of tight formation flying (without any collisions).

So perfect thanks heaps for the video I just subscribed.

wonderful video! just a question...I'm confused: the maneuver you called a barrel roll was what I see other pilots (meaning non-RC. You are, for sure, a pilot!) call a corkscrew and vice-versa. Am I mistaken or are they different in the RC community?

I have the Real Flight 7.5 Sim. Any tips or experience with that one or are you locked into Horizon products only? Do you know how to load more models on the simulator or do I have to buy another product?

hey man, can a trainer / cessna do hover? i dont know if im calling that right.. float nose up? how?

Thanks Pete

good job

What rc sim is this, isn’t this that one popular one that is on computer and you use a real controller and stuff?

good flying. I find it harder to fly re than fa18s

Hi, thanks for the learning, very nice flying! I have a Revolver 60. and a Sbach 29% with a 60cc fuel engine, and I just crashed a foam trainer to no recovery so to say the least I can`t fly! But I want to learn how to. What do you recommend I should do? Can you make a video with basic and a Aerobatics tutorial video with one or both models? I have no ides on how they fly!

Very nice video.. what sim is that?

good vid. On Phoenix flight sim, if I am doing the roll but the plane comes crashing down, is it the type of plane that may be the issue? I'm trying to roll the Eflite carbon z cub but can't get it. Is this plane able to roll or am I doing something wrong. It never rolls straight. How do I know which planes can roll or is it trial and error? I assume all planes are able to roll. Am I right? thanks

Hey Voro, which one do you think is better Phoenix 4 or Realflight 6.5. I have the DX8 which I use on most of my planes.

Can you show HOW TO DO A SPLIT-S on the transmitter. I know what the airplane is doing, just unsure about when to make the moves on the stick. Thanks for your help.

Hello Which simulator are you using, ia this a phoenix?Thank you

I bought one for my first plane. Disaster, too big. Get a Bixler 1.5 or 2.0. Great plane easy to learn with. Hope this is not too late. LOL

Hey Voro, would you recommend upgrading the DX5E straight to the DX6I when you get the sim or just keeping the DX5E

To add to VoroRC, get the Apprentice S15E with SAFE technology. Best of all is the panic button which will recover from any situation to level light.

I have a bunch of RC warbirds and one 3D plane and the 3D plane isnt really good because the design is a couple years old so Im wonding if I could use one of my warbirds for doing things like this. Is it possible?

Great video sir. I wanna get into the rc plane world. I already have rc cars and trucks but now I wanna fly. What do you recommend, buying a cheap plane and learn that way or start out with the simulator and are the controls of a simulator the same as the controls of a actual rc plane, I mean are the movements the same? Forgive me for asking these stupid questions it's that I don't want to wreck my new eflite a10 warthog 64mm. I know it's too much plane for a beginner but I have no plans to fly it until I've mastered the simulator and buy a cheap rc plane to practice with. Thumbs up on your video sir. 👍

Hi Please post videos on warbird landing tutorials

Did it come with the remote control. Or I can use it with my rc plane remote

You should show how to do spins and hamerheadss

hi can you do a salute(wing tilt)

Hi what Sim is this and does it work on a Mac?

Thanks

“And it’s gonna be nice”

It is not a barrel roll. Its simple axis spin..

Can you please help me with my rolls I lose a lot of altitude trying to do a roll how do I stop my plane from doing that btw I'm took your recommendation and am using the eflite apprentice I attempted my first ever manuever on expert mode low

just bought a umx t-38 - 4 channel, in beginner mode she is straight and level when I flip the switch to intermediate mode she immediately becomes nose heavy and begins to drop ....why ?

Hey ,i would like to know what is the Simulator software you using ? one more question , can i use my RC remote for the simulator or i need to buy a special one for the simulator ?

Hello, thanks for the question. I would personally stay away from BananaHobby. You can read online forums about them. But for a beginner plane I highly recommend the E-Flite Apprentice. You can find at just about any hobby shop and online. Thanks, Voro.

You need to update your video on the aileron roll not barrel roll. Navy Pilot retired and RC pilot IMAC 40+ years. I see other posts to the same maneuver.

daora

can you show figure of 8

Actually there's a LOT more to a roll. It's WAY harder than just jamming your aileron to the right. To maintain altitude and attitude, you must correct at every stage of the roll to get a smooth, level roll. Start by Pointing nose up. 1/4- Use rudder (opposite direction of roll) 1/2- press forward on elevator (similar to maintaining altitude upside down) 3/4- Use rudder (same direction as roll) 4/4- easing out of all controls into level flight Start by pointing your nose up slightly. Begin your roll. As you roll from straight, level flight, to having your plane at a 90* angle, you need to add rudder to keep your plane level. As your plane nears upside down, you correct by easing off of the ruder and applying elevator. When you're plane's completely upside down, you should be pushing forward on your elevator stick. As your plane transitions into a 3/4 turn, you then would be easing in and out of your rudder, but this time in the opposite direction than you used when starting the roll. Hope that helps. :)

how about a rudder roll?

What simulator is this?

agree wit OldeMann,,, die ist keine Fassrolle (not a barrel roll)

Way took much exponential on those ailerons .... For teaching rc.

THAT'S AN AILERON ROLL A BARREL ROLL HAS UP ELEVATOR AND TURNS AS IF IT IS RIDING ALONG THE INSIDE OF A BARREL

can anyone please tell me what simulator this is?

loops "AND "rolls

Rolling harrier

Where's Knife edge slide? XD

That's an aileron roll

Is he flying a real plane or is this computer simulator?

Ok your using F4U

sorry my friend but that it NOT a Barol roll
