I anticipated this video since you first started the build. It’s still hard for me to wrap my head around a 3-1/2 month build, have it turn out absolutely gorgeous and fly superb! That’s a 6-12 month build for me at the least. Hats off brother 🎩!!! Can’t wait to see what’s in store next on the building table and can’t wait to watch the Goldberg Sukhoi fly
Absolutely awesome Andy😊 So glad she flies great Don't know if I'll finish mine this summer but I'm in the market 4 A gt80 or gp 76 I would really like to know where your CG ended up so I can make mine the same 😊 Enjoyed following the build
Well, I watched from the start to the end of the build. There is nothing wrong with the finish. You pointed out the flaws, but hell, you will not get it flawless. There is a saying that if it is perfect, then it is not done by hand. Flys great good job looks great. 👏
Hello Andy Just wanted to add that take off was amazin as well as the landing . ? Do you a set elevator trim slightly down for maiden as to avoid becoming airborne to soon or before sufficient speed is reached before rotating
Hey Andy...congrats...great build...great effort....great flight.....BTW you probably mentioned this already in one of your previous videos.....What is your AUW for the model. Take care and have a great flying season....
I've been flying longer than that stuff has been around. Not a fan of flipping switches, and never liked the feel of expo. My models are just like the full scale...... all in the stick!
@n1114v yep I hear you there. I just couldn't imagine my 3d planes or my fast turbine sport jets having 0 expo and full throws from the servos. I've only been flying for 5 years or so now, so having only been used to expo and lower rates even though I don't flip any switches. Just don't think I'd be as smooth with out it as you are

Kudos to your runway \ lawn maintenance team. That runway is stunning! Smooth as a pool table.
Great place to fly
That's has got to be the crispest war bird ever, no tip stall, beautiful slow full flap behaviour, and stunning looker congratulations!!!
That was one hell of a maiden. Congrats on a terrific looking bearcat!
Good job Andy!!!! You gotta love those boring maidens. I am at awe. Very well done. Keep them coming brother!!!
Thanks buddy! It flew better than expected.
Yup, flies just like a Ziroli should. Looks great.
Got to love giant bearcats! Well done!
Now that's how you do a maiden! Congrats
Just close your eyes and pull up!
I almost hung up when it "looks electric" at first glance! That thing is SWEEEEEEEET, nice job Wow!
Gotta be gas!
@@n1114v Or nitro lol. V-nice Bearcat!
It flew it like it was an old friend - did everything beautifully :)
Exceeded my expectations
Oh brother that is a beautiful bear 😊
Awesome once again. You are so lucky on your balancing technique. I could only dream of being that lucky, but then there is only one Andy Gideon.
Thank goodness there is only one lol! I guess I have a sixth sense setup wise.
That's 1 hell of a plane mate Nice very nice mate 🤙🤙🤙
Beautiful build thanks for sharing. Would love to have one after yours flew thank you. A1
Got to love a bearcat. Looks awesome, flies great, and a very well flown madien.

Fantastic, congrats 👏👏👍

I would recommend using Nick's CG. Mine flies the way I like but most wouldn't like how sensitive the tail is.
Nice work!
Beautiful model!!! Beautiful flight!!!! Great job!!!!
Congratulations on a great maiden flight, two thumbs up!
Thanks!
GOOD TO SEE IT IS IN THE AIR, FINALLY! Waited a while for this.
awesome way to spend time in the shop with a new Andy Gideon maiden flight! The week is now complete!!!!! Thanks for sharing!
Made my week to!
Nice plane..love the grass on your field.
Badass Bearcat!
Awesome maiden, love the paint job and who doesn't love a Bearcat
Excellent all the way around . They really do fly well when you keep the weight down. Covering with monokote was very smart.
Congratulations Sir!
Very nice! I love it when a plan comes together!
Gorgeous build and gorgeous flight…you are such a perfectist,
Andy!
It's hard not to be....... sometimes
Very nice piloting Andy! She handles like a dream. Be proud of her.
I love it!
Nice job andy no better feeling than building a plane and flying it
Wow!!! Happy for you, great maiden flight awesome piloting skills and absolutely great build , fantastic!!!
Great job, Andy! She looked great in the air finally. I always love watching the maidens after a build series. Again, fine job. Keep it up!
Awesome job Andy. Lovely landing!!
Way to go! Excellent Bearcat, nice flight and fantastic build!

Hello Andy
Just wanted to add that take off was amazin as well as the landing .
? Do you a set elevator trim slightly down for maiden as to avoid becoming airborne to soon or before sufficient speed is reached before rotating
Nope, everything is set at neutral for a maiden flight
Nice finish…where does cooling air exit cowl? Seems the normal side exhaust vents are missing.
I have slits in the bottom of the cowl, as well as a pass through the fuse
Beautiful! What finish is on it?
Neucover from value hobby
Hey Andy...congrats...great build...great effort....great flight.....BTW you probably mentioned this already in one of your previous videos.....What is your AUW for the model.
Take care and have a great flying season....
I haven't weighed it but I would guess between 25 and 28 pounds
Another great build.. another one in the books!
@@n1114v Thanks for the reply Andy, great flying Bearcat.....
The engine sounds a little unhappy.
The engine ran perfect! Most of the flight was at half throttle
holy crap how the hell do you fly without rates and expo? lol i think im a shit pilot now
I've been flying longer than that stuff has been around. Not a fan of flipping switches, and never liked the feel of expo. My models are just like the full scale...... all in the stick!
