This is my favorite jet! I've slapped one landing myself after I milked the battery and only needed a JB weld one one gear to fix it. This is one tough eagle! NIIIIIIIIIIIICE video! Good to see ya! 😁👍
Ouch 😢 Looms like an easy fix, if you can find the parts. I have to repair the FMS F86 80mm, battery died. Need to figure out how to fix the front landing gear mount.
😐 Did a similar landing on a muddy part of the field. Damaged both main struts. Hobby Zone is pretty much out of parts for this model. Any place else to get them?
I did a similar landing in a muddy patch on the field. Damaged both gear struts. Unfortunately Hobby Zone has almost no parts for this model. Even though I've emailed twice asking if they have an ETA for when the parts will be available so far I haven't heard back. If anybody knows where parts can be bought for this model, preferably in the USA, I'd appreciate the information.
Yes and no, sometimes your right, you fight the wind and it sucks the fun out of it. on other windy days I am able to pull off the risky landings and strengthen my skills so it can be a mixed bag.
Did a similar landing in a muddy patch at the field. Damaged both main struts. Unfortunately Hobby Zone is out of nearly all the parts for this model. Even though I have emailed twice asking if there is an ETA on parts availability there has been no reply. If anyone knows where parts for this model can be purchased, preferably in the USA, I would appreciate the information. Otherwise, be aware you may be on your own if you smack the plane,
Well as my relationships is so good with my sponsor they actually were sending me out a new F-15 right as this video was being produced. I plan on fixing that gear and possibly changing the livery on the F-15.
It's cool most people probably relate better to someone who is maybe a slightly less than perfect pilot. Been there lots and will be again but then I like to flirt on the edge and also just ef up occasionally
Good thing this is one tough bird!!!!
The ordinance probably saved you from more damage.
I think your right.

I may just do the JB weld it was a clean break.

Ouu sorry about the f-86
I've had bad luck with the HRB 3300 6S batteries myself. Voltage would drop off to 3.2 volts under load.
Sorry to hear that. Guess I am just lucky with them.
I feel like arrows is a step behind fms is offerings
No you are correct Arrows is made by FMS as a cheaper more cost effective sub company.
Very nice F-15
Thanks!

no sorry RC Castle is about it.
Thanks for the reply. I appreciate it. Lack of parts is a huge problem.

Only rc castle across the pond I am afraid!
Windy days equals damage and for me it takes the fun out of flying.

no sorry RC Castle is about it.
Looks like a pretty heavy plane. Sort of dropped out of the sky. Doesn't glide as well as a high wing trainer. That's for sure. Lol
Well I got complacent and should have gone around and paid for it. No jet should ever be glided in and I know that.Thanks so much for stopping by!
Well …. Well … well ………. It happens 🤷🏻♂️
Anyone who says they never crash are either lying or they don't fly! ..lol
These things happen to all of us, hope you can get replacment gear....jeff.

Good job we have all done that
LOL! Thanks!!
Sorry about that.
It is all good now!

You will always learn more from a crash than a greaser landing any day!
