My apologies but the reason why it failed was all you. 1) the low battery. 2) the configuration of the controls on the craft. 3) you didn’t bother to change the servos out knowing that they were damaged. 4) all the crashes it took and you didn’t bother to check everything and make sure to do all the preflight checks before taking it out to fly.🤷🏻♂️💯👍
I love these comments. You do realize your kinda alone on this.
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 at 10:1 ratio looks like he doesn't alone in this one...
@@maszkalman3676 its now 17:1
@@CAPTAINDRONE798He is totally right sir.
Even if he is alone, the truth matter!
Those were flaperons, not elevons. You had them set up backwards. You were dumping lift on the wing whenever you pulled up elevator, so your wing was fighting any up or down elevator input.
Flaperons are used a lot in gliders and DLGs. You want them on a switch or slider, not coupled to the elevator, and ideally adjustable in flight (slider or stick input). On a glider or dlg the throttle stick is commonly used to drop the flaperons and throttle is put on a switch.
I have one of these, and it flys pretty good.....have destroyed the lading gear though. I just set it up as a delta wing. Rudders are normal rudders, and the wings are just delta elevons like a Mirage or Concorde
My understanding of the f-117 fighter is that it was intentionally overpowered to be able to make it fly. Because of the angles ( to make it stealthy) of the skin of the plane it could barely fly with underpowered engines. So they needed to overpower it in order to give it enough lift to get it into the air. Doesn't surprise me that you had trouble with this particular plane as it just doesn't fit the normal aerodynamic Bernoulli effect with normal wing configurations.
And these gyro-stabilized flight controllers we use these days are the same type of tech they used in onboard computers to keep the F-117 and B-2 from falling out of the sky.
yes, and the real plane can fly, but very slow.
also the real one is not designed to fly, but for stealth its packed with servos to allow it to fly but another childhood favourite i would have gone crazy seeing an rc one :)
Yup, and then you wack a camera on it just to make sure it has no chance.
No such thing as an overpowered airplane, but even if that were true, you can't say the airplane is overpowered if it needs that power "to be able to able to make it fly". By the way power (thrust) doesn't
provide lift, it opposes drag. Lift is provided by the wing of this airplane in the same way as other wings. The airplane has a lot of drag and is unstable, but that has nothing to do with lack of lift or too much thrust.
That was a hilarious video, with you narrating all the problems you kept having trying to fly that plane. Thanks for the laugh!
My pleasure! And my frustrations!
@CAPTAINDRONE798 Keep doing what you're doing, I enjoy your videos, you deliver useful information and make it fun and educational, and I look forward to the next video!
To be fair, that plane is an aerodynamic nightmare in real life and only flies at all with the help of a fly-by-wire computer system. I'm surprised it flies at all, honestly.
That's why it was called the Wobbly Goblin!
Stop faulting the F-117. My favorite plane!!!!!! 😂😂😍😍😍😍😍
I'll still buy this one from BananaHobby! 🙏🏼🙏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
They called it the hopeless diamond for a reason. No reason to believe a miniature would be any different.
My condolences, its a lovely plane but belongs on a shelf now.
Not only is EPS foam lighter and stiffer than EPO foam, for this plane is very scale. The full size plane is very fragile and has very delicate radar absorbing material on it's skin so any hangar rash replicates damage the full size plane would suffer. The full size also flies like crap.🤣🤣
Pilots call it "The wobbly goblin" during the test phase of the program.😅
I’ve never seen a review by you, that’s had me screaming with laughter Steve!!! Kudos though for your dedication and determination to get that thing in the air!!🤣👍🏼👍🏼
Glad you enjoyed it!
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 always sir!!!
😮eek. The plane of disaster.
Hi Steve My friend 👋👍. It looked promising at first but oh my gosh 😮.
It did fly after many attempts. Lol sometimes we get a lemon.
A great video 👍💯 . Thank you so very much and God bless you always. Have a great week everyone
Thanks for your honest review on it. Would you be willing to part with it? Would love to have it as a tribute build to an old friend that worked on a similar project.
This would make a great “static” display model.
Keep up the great videos. And again, thanks for the stickers sir.
“ I’ve got a lady walking the dog”
She’s got a guy flying a toy plane:)
Really enjoyed it the video. That’s a cool plane man.
That’s the coolest RC Airplane I’ve ever seen. 😂
Looks like your F-117 was a tempermental as the real one! Add to that it was not a stable aircraft to fly, and needed a lot of computer-assist to remain stable. I bet that if it had SAFE like other planes have it would be easier to fly.
LOL. I had a blast watching this. Glad you posted this video. Made my day!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Is your elevon mix set to aileron/elevator(wing control surfaces)? Do you have yaw/rudder controls?
Wow! I'm surprised you didn't intentionally nose dive that pile into the blacktop at full throttle just to enjoy the end of it!
That’s why they are called the wobblin goblin!
Yeah ive yet to put mine back in the air, the foam is pretty oldschool on these models. Suprised you reviewed this one tbh because this model is atleast 7 plus years old now lol
I love that plane. I have actually looked into buying this exact model over the weekend.
If you crash it again and still hate it, I'll buy it from you, Steve. LoL
Looks great in the air, but you really have to handle it as if it were made of high end breakable china
@CAPTAINDRONE798 I will be buying the setup that allows me to install by own radio gear, in which, I will be using spektrum SAFE tech...because im a noob to airplanes. LoL
Fun video ! 😃
You have far more patience than most of us .
What a nightmare !!!
🤣
Thanks for the honest review.
Omg omg omg. I use to have f-117 game on commodore computer. Loved that jets look
I REMEMBER THAT GAME!!!
It’s definitely a cool looking and pretty scale looking model F-117. Too bad it was such a POS but I give you props for giving it several tries to try and make it work!
So much for a STEALTH air craft 😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂 Great video Steve.
Decent set up enjoy the week
Idk, that plane looks pretty cool. I think half the problems you had with it was where you were flying it.
The unofficial name of the F117 was the wobbly goblin.
This is perhaps the funniest video you have put out so far. Loved the video. I wondered how well this plane would translate to r/c anyway, seeing that the original full scale plane wont fly or glide without many redundant inboard flight systems to assist the pilot in keeping it under control.
Lots of excitement with the flight, nice nice
Steve, You have to admit this video on the F-117 has to be one of your most entertaining video reviews I have watched on your site. With all that said, It sure looked cool while it was in the air.
Thank you!
I just watched your video and I feel for you. I bought this plane as a Christmas gift to myself a couple of months ago and it’s exactly the same crap as yours. Gear doesn’t work right and bomb doors don’t open. The servos are the worse I’ve ever encountered and it makes me wish I bought the kit version rather than the pnp one. I’ve bought a 6 channel RM elrs receiver and I’m going to replace all servos. I’m determined to get this thing up in the air at some point. Keep up the good work and I look forward to more of your videos!
Best test ever !
That was comical Steve
That thing is above my skill level of flight, good job with it.
I have flown quite a few different drones and I had one which always gave me problems and that was the Yuneec Breeze. It's not that it was a bad drone, it was the controller that I mainly had problems with. I just couldn't get used to using that game pad. Maybe if I would have had some gaming experience it might have helped.
Use your Tx to slow down the retract deployment speed.
Needs Benny Hill theme music, Classic
Needa snow ski in the front.. I'll shut up now, sorry couldn't resist..
Where the landing gear was concerned, you kinda blew your own doors off. 🚪 😢
Ha, you may hate that plane, but I love this video!!😂
Highly entertaining !! Good fun as always. Totally enjoyed it.
Sorry about the crash
Excellent, and funny video. Thank you Captain Steve.
Holy crap Captain!!!, I think you are being a bit hard on this amazing beast!; what more could you ask for!; A magnificent Car Park "drift plane" !; Stunt plane (crash / burn / glue and off you go again!) and better still! : Daymare on Mower Street for Tractor Man!; its the quintessential all round Foam fixable !; oh, and dare I say it, an Arborists dream with its tree trimming ability's !!!!
suggestion : this plane in the trash and forget it !!! smile !!! very funy video. HI from France
hey capt drone how easy to fly a edf jet and what do you recomend for the first timer ? thanks
You can’t fly an EDF jet as a beginner, you need some experience either flying propeller planes or glides for at least two weeks so that the brain and hand/eye coordination kicks in. Then you can start on beginner EDF jets.
Great vid very funny and intertaining
The one time I would tell you give up on that plane...🍺cheers
Well… that was actually a lot of fun watching you battle fly that plane ! Did find your camera?
Yes… the camera that fell off is the same camera that provided the flight footage. Had I not found the camera, there would have been no footage to add to the video
Merry Christmas and a prosperous New Year
2024
Merry Christmas
I have to say I really enjoyed this review! Dramatic to say the least! I was cheering for you both! I think you should do a few more like this becz the crashing and repair cycle and your patience was amazing. I hope to see you fly this thing again in 2024!
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it!
Stick to Drones Doctor hahaha 😆 😂 🤣. Awesome review 👏
Hey Cap. you really cracked me up on this one I was thoroughly entertained. I would truly love to take that plane off your hands since you hate it so much lol and have it up as a display piece. You did give our green friends a good scare I could see them trying to get out of your way dwl lol, you BAD man you. Anyway, you keep them coming Cap. and I'll keep watching. Save the TREES dwl lol dwl
Glad to hear you enjoyed the vid
Good review Steve
Lol! This title caught my eye because I'm so used to seeing your "This plane is great, buy it!" videos. It's fun to add in some of your negative experiences as well!
that thing looks awesome
I have one of those from 20 years ago. No dropper. No retract. Just a fixed landing gear and fixed V tail. And it flys very good. So here’s my 2 cents. Lock the V tail and set it up like a flying wing. Then do the ol bank and yank. Use the highest C rate you can get.
Are you sure yours is the 70mm or is it the 64mm (that has the locking gear)
Súper cool
I've had one of these for years now, after putting it together I found out how cheap it is so I just use it for decoration😂
Also love your videos and nice jeep!
I love banana hobby vehicles! Are they still around? I wanted to buy one of their stealth planes at some point! Great job! #stayepic
Banana Hobby is still going strong and they still sell many of their classics.
Thanks for this Vedio on showing how Bad the Plane preformed, all in all the countless ways you tried to improvise in
trying to get it in the air, obviously this is Bad Servos that were on the Plane and I believe that the EDF fan should have been my powerful a possible bigger ESC could have solved the problem, to make it go faster.
It's a rebranded LX plane (jet) made of EPS foam. Most of their products are problamatic.
Have to admit it really looks nice. 👌
super entertaining!
It looks nice I like the black
I still enjoy your experimentation with the aircraft. It still seems strange to not see you flying the aircraft of “Your Namesake🤣!” Has Captain Drone Been Dethroned🤗?”
great review and montage, hmm not so great model but i'm happy to see a f117 (you needed an assistant like jedi steve)
Hi captain, that was hilarious, nice rant sir 😂😂
Hey, the real F-117 is so unstable in its flight design that it absolutely would not be capable of human controlled flight without its computerized flight stabilization system. Why would a miniature be any different?? Advice: get a more conventional design R/C aircraft and have fun instead of fits!
Hey Geronimo. That's my name!!!
Haha great vid. I enjoyed watching you slowly destroy it one flight at a time. Subbed!
It did produce an amusing video though! :-D
laughed till the end of the video and had to watch it again....love ur reviews...if ur not liking the plane all that well i would love to take it off ur hands???? my dad used to fly them back in the day, and would love to have that for a shelf queen/ some memories,trying to get my hands on one for awile,,,,,thanks steve,,cant wait for the next review
awsome video sir
Good afternoon captain really cool channel
🤣🤣🤣🤣 absolutely loved that certainly not buying that crap but it was fun seeing you going crazy and at that price they must be joking good crap review Captain 🤣🤣🤣🤣
You need to fly this into a big dumpster and never look back. However, Video was great, and entertaining. 🤣
Glad to hear it was enjoyable to watch, thank you.
Great video. Blessings from Ireland ❤️ Eamon
Thank you! Cheers!
Hi! it looks like your mix made it so the wing looses lift, instead of gaining(flaps); Combined with high angle of attack, low speed, and a swept wing on the flying fridge, it looks like you stalled on the first flight attempt. I've been flying rc planes for over 10 years and it's okay, things like this happen. I totally think that the quality of the plane is garbage, but it's important to crash, *Learn*, fly, repeat. Tail heavy productions have a couple of videos on these topics. you should check them out. I really like your channel and I think everyone should learn from things like this. Have a nice day :)
It looks like it has so much potential.....
You should try bombs with parachutes from a higher altitude.
I just may try that, thanks.
I thought that went pretty well
Imagine if your garage tape the front end of your Jeep, instead talking time to fix, really picking on you now 😊😊😊
This is comical, loving it, one of my favor videos 😊😊😊
Glad you enjoyed it
Is Worth it, even got my wife laughing..
Thank you Don!
Can you turn it into a leaf blower? Maybe you can tape a hockey stick to it and use it this fall. It might do a better job at that !!! lol As always with planes it was due to pilot error from the get-go !!! lol
That looked like fun....not! Well, It was amusing!
Damn, now I have to keep my cat away from my RC planes !!
😲it looks cool
They need to build a TR3b . Anti gravity craft !
Nice fighter jet the F-117 Knight Hawk!
Just curious, what is the radio frequency binded to the R/C?
I am using a SPEKTRUM radio Transmitter and in the plane I placed a SPEKTRUM receiver. Frequency is the Standard Spektrum frequency for their gear.
@@CAPTAINDRONE798Thank you! Great video and channel 👍😊
Elevons(pitch and roll mixture) are generally never placed on rudder control surfaces. They're placed on the wing(aileron) surfaces. I got a couple elevon planes and it's best to do it this way. The tail should only be rudder(yaw control). You should remix it and let me know how it goes.
Did you write this before you watched the entire video??? All the mixes were removed in order to get it to fly correctly. It flies by keeping the ELEVATORS as ELEVATORS and the AILERONS as simple right and left AILERONS.
The f117 tail section doesn't have elevators or a horizontal stab. I just did my research and it works on an elevon system. So the pitch and roll are both set to the wing section control surfaces like other fighter jets use. However fighter jets have extra surfaces than the f-117 because the tail is in all 4 parts. The tail is just a rudder in real life. What they tell you to do is incorrect.
Hey Steve, put the landing gear on the other side, I noticed that all your landings were upside down. Lololol
Good call!
I have had a couple of RC's do that wonky flight. B.S. My father's yard is literally filled with OVER 3000$ worth of my crashes. I swear I can do the most stupid stuff on this planet. I fly good now. Lololololol,I think!!! Benny
How did you know I needed a good laugh this morning. Sorry it was at your expense. Thanks for the chuckles.
Glad you enjoyed it
Well, on the bright side, it was pretty cheap! lol Actually when it was airborne it seemed to fly quite nicely. Kind of cool looking in my opinion. But with the landing gear and the battery door, it was pretty crappy as far as build quality. It was good for entertainment value though so no complaints here!
I am glad I resisted the urge to try one. 😂 I did get their B2 which I haven't flown yet.
Hope you have a successful uneventful flight with the B2
The real F-117, while awesome, is actually a really bad airplane from a "being an airplane" perspective. It can't fly without constant computer correction because the shape isn't great for flying. If that failed it wouldn't fly for very long
