Jonathan love your reply back on the Wood Screws. Jonathan how is the Prop airplane Doing? Hope that’s next! Thanks for the Video again. Say hi to Joe.
I have had a Jeti radio now for a few years. Best radio hands down IMO. In my big really expensive models, I also use the 900mhz backup. Just curious why I don't see that in your builds? I've never had an issue with my smaller planes without the 900, but I like all the redundancy I can get.
That foam for foam box covering of cortex...I believe it's Eva foam just an case anyone needs to try to find it...u can get a roll of it at .5 inches thick by 12 foot x 2 foot at hobby lobby...I searched high and low to find that super dense lightweight foam before
Awesome build! Im a beginner in gas engine planes and your builds are inspiring for me. Can you tell me 2 things: 1st how do you secure cables and electronic inside fuselage? Some velcro? What do you use to „goop” all connectors on final assembly? Thank you!
Thanks for watching! Lots of options. 1. if they can screw down then screw them down. 2. Recievers, 3d printed mount or industrial velcro. 3. for cables and such. 3d printed mounts (check my website) and sometimes tape and glue in place with CA. For final step on assembly the GOOP all connectors is exactly that. Goop is a product. They have lots of types but they are all the same product. Marine goop, plumbers goop, general goop. Same product. There is also E6000. Same product but slightly thinner.
I know you have mentioned kt before but I can't find that video and I am needing to know what 3 wire you use when wiring all you servo connections (I know u use powerbox servo plugs) but what is that blue 3 wore u are using and where can I purchase it
I'll be honest, I keep searching through all these RC flyer channels and I'm only impressed with the electric motors. Turbine just seems so loud and many other negatives for me. I guess it's the same as Nitro vs LiPo in the RC car racing scene. I want to see these large 1/4 or what ever size they are with electric. I know it's possible as Remy has been doing it but he's like the ONLY youtuber I can find doing large scale electric. Everyone else is like "me man and like loud turbine" (joking but I hope you get my point) it's the same thing with combustion engines in cars lol
I love that tank mount system and the whole fuselage interior...lots of room for a super clean easily reachable for maintenance layout the kinetic is my favorite jet only second to the havoc from ea.....the only thing I am not a fan of on kinetix is the super low landing gear
Hi Jonathan, At 9:11 you mentioned that the second receiver is setup as a clone. Why do you run the receivers in clone mode and not Dual Path? Is there a specific reason? Regards
Hello Charl. Reason 1. I like to let others fly and buddy box my aircraft. Especially newbies that haven't flown a turbine before. The clone setup allows easy buddy boxing. Reason 2 that many don't agree with. Better Signal/strength but that's arguable. Dual path is totally fine.
Dyed glass/wood or foam fused plate* not carbon lol carbon has that unmistakable sheen and glass is less likely to cause interference on decks like that

Coming Soon!!!!!😉🤓

Thank you very much!

Our signals aren’t packed here so never really need it. That of course is probably the reason to use it. Cheep insurance.
nice build! thanks for the journey. Strega next? 🙂
Already started 😊
@@thelightersideofrc Super stoked!!!
BTW, we have a cat that looks a lot like yours LOL! Our guy is just as curious!
Haha. Like the standard Nez cat. Good version!😂😂

Beautiful aircraft jet 👌
Thanks a lot!
Super clean as usual. I also realize watching that I tend to overthink stuff in my builds.
Thank you. That can be a huge time suck.......The overthinking!
sweet
Thanks Darrin!

@@thelightersideofrc I live in Poland so thats why I couldnt find what goop really means. Thanks !
Very nice I wouldve gone push pull cables what do you think ?
Push pull cables o what?
@@thelightersideofrc yes
AWESOME DUDE!!! 😮😮😮🎉🎉❤❤❤
Thanks! 😄
Great video by the way. Question. At 42:02 you show your jet on a stand that looks great for transportation. Can you do a short video on that stand.
Thanks! Those stands are from www.randomheli.com/
Amazing pieces of kit!
@@thelightersideofrc thanks
I was really excited about your link to the Solderstick site. Unfortunately it doesn't work for me. :(
Sorry to hear that
Beautiful bird there! Say Jon, what would YOU recommend as a good starter aircraft to get started into turbines?
Thanks! So many great options! Shoot me an email and can discuss more.
Just a quick question... How much suction does one of these jet motors have?
A lot! When you throttle up they are sucking in an enormous amount of air!
I know you have mentioned kt before but I can't find that video and I am needing to know what 3 wire you use when wiring all you servo connections (I know u use powerbox servo plugs) but what is that blue 3 wore u are using and where can I purchase it
That is powerbox wire.
Hey bud, did you 3 d print the UAT holder? Im digging the electron ball ends! im always replace the stock chinese stuff
Hey Keith. I don’t print the 3D stuff I sell. That all happens by my friend to help him.
I'll be honest, I keep searching through all these RC flyer channels and I'm only impressed with the electric motors.
Turbine just seems so loud and many other negatives for me.
I guess it's the same as Nitro vs LiPo in the RC car racing scene.

Everyone else is like "me man and like loud turbine" (joking but I hope you get my point) it's the same thing with combustion engines in cars lol
I get it. Ever been around a turbine in person? The sound, smell and experience is incredible
I love that tank mount system and the whole fuselage interior...lots of room for a super clean easily reachable for maintenance layout the kinetic is my favorite jet only second to the havoc from ea.....the only thing I am not a fan of on kinetix is the super low landing gear
Nose is low but it’s nice to have the doors close and keeps all the crap out

Have you ever given any thought to converting one of these large aircraft to EDF instead of the turbos?
Not really. I'm a fan of the sound, smell of Turbine. That's what I enjoy.
Stop teasing me with the Strega. When is that build starting?
Haha. Engine install started yesterday
Looking to get some carbon fiber plates,where can I find them ?
Different suppliers. Just have to do some searching. I used to be able to find local but now hobby king. Amazon. Carbon manufacturers of Facebook.
Thank you for your time

SWEET looks kinda like a f-35 nose
Yea for sure. I love the lines!
