Hi Terry, ive just found this video and thoroughly enjoyed watching it. The At6 Texan looks fabulous and you flew it tremendously well. I know a number of years has passed by since this was made , but it was still great to see. Kind regards Aidan. Hope you are keeping well.

Hi Aidan how are you my friend. Thanks for the view. Hope all is well with you and your family. I can’t remember when we talked last so don’t know if i told you but i had a really bad year in 2023, almost died in March last year then had bad heart attack in October and had to have open heart surgery but doing much better now. Talk to you soon my friend, Terry

At what year did they change to bolt on wings? My LT-40 ARF has the pegs/rubber bands. (I wonder how old my kit is then?)
@tomschmude48155 ай бұрын
Hi Terry! So excited to see these videos for this plane. I just bought an old kit from someone off of FB Marketplace (untouched) in box, untouched but however approx. 15 years old. My wings and tail are not pre-hinged like yours. do you know of a video on how to do this? Thanks so much, can't wait to build this with your help!!

Hello Tom, thank you so much, i love building these but been out of it for a couple of years, 2023 was a really bad year for me, pretty much died a couple of times but doing better now after my heart surgery. The older model just came in a kit then in early 2000’s it came out in ARF kt, they came out with one piece wing then in mid 2000’s they changed it again to a two piece wing which made it a lot easier to transport, i think that’s when that added the cowl option as well. It is a fantastic airplane for sure. I hope my build video’s help you along, feel free to contact me with any questions you might have. I am thinking about trying to do some more build video’s and some flying too, i haven’t flown in 3 years but i am starting back into it this spring, i kept a few of my planes just in case and i still have a couple of ARF to build. Stay in touch my friend, Terry

Terry i been thinking about you alot lately buddy. I really miss flying and still have all the planes and helis just haven't touched them in years. My back has gotten worse and i wasn't getting blood to my legs, dr's kept telling me it was nerve damage and scar tissue. When I'd complain that i can't walk far without calf cramping like a fist and not releasing. Finally my burning sensation toes looked like they were gonna fall off and a dr setup a test to see that i wasn't getting blood flow to legs and feet. Anytime I'd walk 40 feet to mailbox i couldn't walk back on my own the pain was excruciating and i just couldn't take another step. Finally they put 3 stents in and opened flow and that helped take the burning away, but still couldn't walk but about 20 to 30 feet and then have to sit or lay down and wait for calves to stop feeling like they were going to burst. I saw a comment you left someone about a year ago and sounds like you're in same boat now. Im sorry to hear that. I hope you and the family are well though. We're hanging in there kids are grown with kids of their own now and have moved on. We have custody of our niece and nephew 13 and 15 and have had them for last 4 years, I've tried to get them on simulator but they show 0 interest, he just wants to play war games and she wants to be tiktok famous she's either learning new dances or playing fortnite. But they're good kids they've been through slot and seen more in their young age than most adults even ever see. Take care buddy i wish y'all well.

You dont build ARF or ARC , You assemble them . They already come built . You goo the tail feathers onto the fus. Then you goo the wing together . That is not building folks . Only Republican pilots think that assembling an ARF or ARC is the same as building from a box of wood . So take that ARF to the flying field and if someone say nice plane who built it ? Tell them you did it all by your self from the gound up . Dont tell them it was an ARF or and ARC .

Opaque plug tanks will eventually leak or split, and you can't visualize integrity of tank lines. Clear tanks with a three line has advantages if it can fit.

Lost mine last year had a 25cc Chinese petrol in it..flew it for three years and then had a heavy arrival and damaged the cowl...ordered a new cowl but never fitted it...got too carried away with it and destroyed it..😂😂..seeing this makes me think of buying another one...but already have a hanger full and would need to get the box past err indoors..😂😂.....ps I would suggest a tough of right rudder would see you taking off in a straight line..just my 2p worth..👍👍

Hey Don how’s it going, man i haven’t talk to you in a long time, sorry i’m just now seeing this comment, i haven’t checked my you tube stuff in a while. Glad you are still flying, i do a little but not like i used to, old back is about shot. Speaking of flying i have several planes and other rc stuff i’m wanting to sell if anyone you know might be interested, give me a call or text if you still have my number. Terry

@stevendegiorgio31432 жыл бұрын
You should program throttle cut function in your transmitter.And remove the prop while setting up your plane.I agree electric planes are very dangerous.But get in the habit of keeping your throttle cut switch to throttle cut position and only switch it on when prepairing to hand launch.I have been flying R/C 48 years.
