    Not quite the compilation video you were expecting I'm afraid, but plenty of extreme high-alpha / hover flybies here to delight you! ;)

    Can only do that for formation flights... and just barely!

    Gotta do that someday!
    At the moment I'm working on a 'movie' on how I made my EF-18A (paintjob, decals...).
    It takes a hell lot of work. :'(

    Quite a few, lol...


    I made an entire build and mods video of this one... so have at it!



    In addition to what is in the video, I recently replaced the EDFs by FMS PRO 1900kv 12 blade units and ESCs by 80A Hobbywing Platinum Pros.

    The jet in the build video is the same as in my latest Su-35 flying video that I posted and is currently my most flown aircraft ever at almost 400 flights. ;)

    Thanks!

    I've made a few compilations of this jet over the years, but I've added quite a few new maneuvers to my rooster as of late so I guess I will have to consider making a new one, will certainly post when I do. (Because you can be certain that I will... mostly a matter of time) ;)

    In an attempt to get the info out to more folks, I thought that cross posting would help.

    I have deleted all the cross posts that the system would allow and will leave the thread in the RADIOS AND RECEIVERS thread.

    Noooooo.... that's terrible!
    :'(

    Hopefully you reconsider in the future and get another one so you can properly enjoy it! :)


    And speaking of... made this crazy compilation a while ago but run into copyright problems with YouTube and wasn't allowed to share it until now, which kinda sucked as I spent a lot of effort preparing this one, but finally, here it is! :D



    Enjoy!

    Well...

    Short story short: Flew at a frozen lake with no good references where I, after having a close call when losing reference in the sun and haze, thinking I saved it low level, totally misjudged the distance to a forest and my beloved Su35 disintegrated when it contacted a tree. My relative inexperience shows and I learn a little more every time.
    Since there is no ARF-version I have found of this one, I will not get a new one but instead move on with fond memories of its capabilities. Onwards and upwards!

    My 90mm Gripen with thrust vectoring will now be my standard aircraft, which isn't to bad.

    And remember to detach nozzle trim from stab trim. You don't want to change thrustline every time you adjust stab trim.

    Will do. You must realize that editing, rendering, uploading, preparing the SEO and distributing videos takes quite some effort and time is limited ;)

    It's on the queue though (Along with many others).

    Hi Everyone,

    I apologize if this was asked/answered in a prior post. I tried searching through the tread but couldn't find what i'm looking for. I'm awaiting a new transmitter that handle 10+ channels (FySky X20S). The weather is going to be perfect this weekend and I really want to fly it. Are there any issues or concerns if I fly this as a 'basic' 5 channel setup (T,A,E,R,G)? Basically, I want to fly this w/out thrust vectoring.

    Thanks.
    If you fly without tv, assuming you still have the servos connected to tv I suggest you align the nozzles as per RC4 ever video. be aware that it is very easy to knock the tv out of line on take off or landing or if you accidentally knock them in transport.so immobilize them once you have set the correct thrust line. Have a good weekend.
