It has been awesome watching you guys from Grassroots beginnings to having a whole family working together to make this hobby as best,cheap,easy and accessible as you can. Thanks a lot ft guys and gals.
I love seeing people who can support their family, doing what they love. And on top of that doing things that other people love... good stuff, keep it up....
I am probably alone one this, but I would like to see more behind the scenes stuff like this. I am sure it would not be good all the time though. Good Vlog!
Really enjoy seeing the FT operation. In college I worked for a mail order business that specialized in sailboat racing equipment. So I appreciate the work and coordination that goes into making the operation successful.
I remember watching FT years ago when it was only Chad and the Joshes and some day David joined. And now you got THIS big. that's amazing. I am glad Josh B. got into this before getting lost in life. And I miss Josh Scott. btw.. the discus launch glider episode with David still is my favorite FT video of all times.
Bought the Valiant at Hanger 18 in Cary, NC. Practice flew my flyzone fw-190 this morning... damn i havent flown large scale in a year.. my heart rate was pounding... did not want to crash it. later today i took my maiden with the Valiant and ill tell you what.. brother that thing is a smooth flyer after my heart rate dropped back to 80bpm. Love the plane!! she'll hit 60mph in a shallow dive. Super slick.
I was one of the 380 people who ordered. Ft mig 3! Does that mean that josh bixler, Alex or Stephan helped package my order!? Wohoooo! I saw my package as they were shutting down. See y’all in Ohio for flute fest east 2018( when is it?). Thanks for everything👍🏻
Whats funny is that after the battery fell out rather then try to catch the plane that crash right beside you guys...you just sat there and watched it crash to the ground lmao...
Thanks for reminding me to buy from you guys! My FT mini arrow has crashed 3 times so far. Once I get the hang of flying it, I'll need a new frame or three!
Alex's statement on the complications of bringing a quadcopter(camera, dvr, sd cards, goggles, quad, etc.) out is exactly what I'm going through right now. Or I can just bring batteries, transmitter, plane and off I go.
Nice to see an old plane come back! Continent like this is what makes your videos great! (Btw I'm drawing up plans for a Star Wars x-wing on AutoCAD, mind if I send it in?)
we always welcome things sent to us! ;) Does not mean we get to everything that gets sent in, but we always love receiving the things from the community!! keep up the great work my friend!
I already pissed my pants when I saw the "quad statement" in the video, but putting it slowed down at the and again made me laugh even more :D:D just awesome!!
7 ปีที่แล้ว
Dude it is so awesome to have you flying fix wing. ;) And glad to hear you will be doing the 150's.
Yes! To remember all the stuff for quads ! Can't tell u how many times I think I have everything and I forget a memory card or something dumb . Grrr. The worst. I love my planes! Especially my Valiant !!! 😀
Seriously what is not to like about this and many other vids that these guys put up. What provokes people to hit the not like thumb. Its just people having fun, showing what they do, if anything perhaps a not like could be a suggestion to improve rather than a negative input. These people make me laugh, they are an inspiration, they are genuine and they love what they do. I have watched them grow since they started out, they are a great success and they deserve every bit of it. Thanks for another video that made me laugh.
You should practice landing and giving it elevator up and some throttle while the plane is comming to a stop, to push the tail down at those final moments. It's fun to practice! :)
I am actually working on designing retractable wheel skis for a Super Cub S. Probably wouldn't require that much modification to make them work on the Valiant.
FliteTest you guys should do something like RCtestflight’s shuttle drop videos. Design some experimental high speed FPV glider/shuttles that can be dropped from really high up!!
Hi the guy that flies the quad does a great job and gets a lot cool shots 👏🏻👏🏻, I noticed the tower in the background is it cell? You don't notice any interference? Thanks I liked seeing the warehouse.
You guys should try UHU Por, its perfect for foam repairs like this and you have time to let it dry and perfect the repair without the instantness of CA. In the end you have a cleaner repair job without CA stuck everywhere on your hands and on the fuse etc. Try it guys!! :-)
So I have a quad and when I plug the battery in the quad beeps, acknowledging the battery and it pairs with the controller but it will not arm. What should I do?
Magnus alright thanks man. I wasn’t too sure what to do because it was working fine then all of a sudden it just stopped. I didn’t know if it was an easy thing to fix or what. Anyways thanks!
I look forward to the FliteTest videos. This one made me laugh... It also made me want to order something from FliteTest. I'm still making payments on the stuff I bought at Flite Fest West. :)
Hey ft, could you do a video about betaflight and getting it installed, I am trying to build a gremlin with my father but we cant seem to get the flight controller to connect with the computer. Thanks.
John Montana I had a problem once an discovered a common cable that came with a device was charging only. Make sure you have a data cable not just power.
Not too sound really dumb, but I can’t seem to get the motor mount of my Valiant to replace a broken prop shaft I snapped clean just taxiing . The plane so brand friggen new snd like my 40th eflite plane that I own. I have not had a problem with any other eflite motor replacement or eflite motor shaft replacement, but cannot even remove the motor from the firewall. I haven’t even maidened the friggen thing yet. Literally taxiing and it noses over and that was the end her. I’m not about to cut the dang thing open as like I said, the plane hasn’t even taken off the ground yet. Any suggestions are appreciated
Hiya Stefan! Not a problem. Your family may have processed an order for a FT gremlin on Black Friday. If so, that's my order you sent out! I hope I get it soon, and then I'll have to get myself a FPV headset. And then the fun can begin.... *silly and badly sounding bond villain laugh*
It is now the next morning, and I just had to watch this again while having my coffee.....cuz you know I'm a simple kinda man.......almost launched a mouth full of morning jo at my screen. I wish I worked as a member of your crew because if you enjoy your job you never another day of your life.........you guys are a riot.
Are y'all guys are awesome to do something and have fun with it yeah that's my kind of thing keep up the good work🛩🛩🛩🛩✈✈🛩✈🛩🛫🛬🛫🛬🛫🛬✈🛬🛫✈🛬🛬🛩✈🛫✈🛩🛫🛬🛫🛩🛫🛬🛫🛩✈🛫🛫🛬🛫🛩✈🛩🛫🛬🛫🛩✈🛩🛫🛬🛬🛫🛫🛩✈🛩🛩🛩✈🛩✈✈🛩🛩🛩🛩🛫🛫🛬🛬🛬🛫🛩✈🛫🛬🛬🛬🛫🛩🛩
what if you flew a wing in third person from another quad? both of the pilots will have their fpv set to the same channel and they can share more of an intertwined fpv experience!
I have the Eflite Valiant and I have had a number of HH products but this one has to be the best they have. Right now I have it and a Timber and the Timber has a lot of quality issues but the Valiant has none.
It has been awesome watching you guys from Grassroots beginnings to having a whole family working together to make this hobby as best,cheap,easy and accessible as you can. Thanks a lot ft guys and gals.
Thier laughter is so contagious. I crack up whenever I watch FT. XD
I love how you zoomed up on Alex's face lol Great content.
I'm building the mini mustang btw, it is such a simple build, love it!
Thank you guys for all your hard work of keeping Flite Test going.
Thank so much Kevin! ;) Blessings my friend
I love seeing people who can support their family, doing what they love. And on top of that doing things that other people love... good stuff, keep it up....
I am probably alone one this, but I would like to see more behind the scenes stuff like this. I am sure it would not be good all the time though. Good Vlog!
I agree 100% ... it's great to see where the kits and parts and such come from...love behind the scenes stuff!
Yes, same. Honestly makes me want to support you guys more when I see how much work goes into the back end :)
Great blog. I love Stefan. Whenever he laughs, I laugh. What a great addition to your team. You rock, Stefan!
That rambling on from Alex about getting a Quad ready should be printed in future textbooks. On point and absofuckinglutely hilarious! ^_^
My whole family is LOL at the slow mo! Thanks, Alex... and all the FT family. Happy Thanksgiving!
Happy Thanksgiving JGplanes! ;) . Blessings to you and your whole family!
Really enjoy seeing the FT operation. In college I worked for a mail order business that specialized in sailboat racing equipment. So I appreciate the work and coordination that goes into making the operation successful.
That Slow-Roll at the end, had me dying! Keep it up FTFam.
Darn. Really miss peter stripol. Dude was awesome. Aaannnyyywaaayys.
Good to see the Val back in service.
Great job showing and including the shipping team.
I really enjoyed seeing some "behind the scenes" of the whole operation. Thanks!
14:33 ROFL!
Great to see your up&flying again Alex!
what a journey, you guys are kicking butt now! bring on 2018
Love you guys! Tou should do more like this, also looking forward to the whooping fames season. Gotta get your quad, your gopro, hahaha loved that!
4:21 lol that smirk...was waiting for Stefan to chime in
haha im sure i do enough of that already! ;) ha
I remember watching FT years ago when it was only Chad and the Joshes and some day David joined. And now you got THIS big. that's amazing. I am glad Josh B. got into this before getting lost in life. And I miss Josh Scott. btw.. the discus launch glider episode with David still is my favorite FT video of all times.
Cool to see a little behind the scenes and your great operation and where my mini mustang was born!
YEA buddy! our Planes are BIRTHED down in the warehouse and then sent to YOU! ;)
The warehouse is awesome! Next time you guys are in there you should get some whoop footage!
will do! ;)
Yes!!
Always have so much fun watching you guys, always buy with the Family lable
Bought the Valiant at Hanger 18 in Cary, NC. Practice flew my flyzone fw-190 this morning... damn i havent flown large scale in a year.. my heart rate was pounding... did not want to crash it. later today i took my maiden with the Valiant and ill tell you what.. brother that thing is a smooth flyer after my heart rate dropped back to 80bpm. Love the plane!! she'll hit 60mph in a shallow dive. Super slick.
This is the advantage of foam over balsa, and the one, as an ancient but still rubbish flier, I appreciate the most
I was one of the 380 people who ordered. Ft mig 3! Does that mean that josh bixler, Alex or Stephan helped package my order!? Wohoooo! I saw my package as they were shutting down. See y’all in Ohio for flute fest east 2018( when is it?). Thanks for everything👍🏻
AWESOME!! thanks so much my man~ . See you at FFeast! more then likely in the beginning/middle of july!
FliteTest makes me happy
Liam Ers127 same
Same
Me too
Whats funny is that after the battery fell out rather then try to catch the plane that crash right beside you guys...you just sat there and watched it crash to the ground lmao...
Another great video. Alex and Stefan are great and hilarious as hell. Awesome sales going on! Thanks and Happy Holidays.
Thanks for the kind words Prop Bender! ;) Happy holidays to you and your fam!
Thanks for reminding me to buy from you guys! My FT mini arrow has crashed 3 times so far. Once I get the hang of flying it, I'll need a new frame or three!
Alex is a simple kind of man.
haha SIMPLE MAN, SIMPLE PLAN! ;)
My favorite part was the epic shots of stefan walking through the warehouse. Wow you guys have a warehouse!
haha! i felt a little awkward! - stefan
It was awesome seeing the warehouse. It'd be great if you filmed an episode with them where they all got an afternoon off to fly with you. 🛩
Love that idea! ;)
Alex's statement on the complications of bringing a quadcopter(camera, dvr, sd cards, goggles, quad, etc.) out is exactly what I'm going through right now. Or I can just bring batteries, transmitter, plane and off I go.
Nice to see an old plane come back! Continent like this is what makes your videos great! (Btw I'm drawing up plans for a Star Wars x-wing on AutoCAD, mind if I send it in?)
Jonesy Films thats awesome bro i just started using cad in engenering class.
we always welcome things sent to us! ;) Does not mean we get to everything that gets sent in, but we always love receiving the things from the community!! keep up the great work my friend!
Inferno Beats cad will be the death of me
FliteTest thanks! I'll email it in! I might also send it in to david
Jonesy Films yeah i can agree
I literally thought at first Stephen said "They Air Hogged" , like as referring to Air Hogs, But he said they bear hugged LOL!
I already pissed my pants when I saw the "quad statement" in the video, but putting it slowed down at the and again made me laugh even more :D:D just awesome!!
Dude it is so awesome to have you flying fix wing. ;) And glad to hear you will be doing the 150's.
The old black and white crash scene! lol
Yes! To remember all the stuff for quads ! Can't tell u how many times I think I have everything and I forget a memory card or something dumb . Grrr. The worst. I love my planes! Especially my Valiant !!! 😀
YEA BUDDY! valiants are LEGIT! ha
You guys are the best can't wait to see you at flight fest west
I love the paint job. Nice work
love seeing these factory vids
Give us a tour, please. That's an awesome warehouse!!! All those lazer cutters, wow!!
so trippy that my rotor riot and flite test orders ship from the same warehouse!!!
Ty guys for shipping lol, keeps me in business
That Reptar shirt at 11:14. Rugrats are back!
HAHAHA! At 8:24 that laugh had me crying in laughter for the past 20 minutes!! XD
heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeey!
HEEEEEYY
haha!! gotta love the good old LAUGHTER!
Yeah! :D
I love the Valiant and the Cessna crash footage, it is like antomy of a disaster:why planes crash lol.
Im a quad fanatic. But about to buy a plane thanks to you guys!
I highly recommend using Beacon Adhesive's Foam Tac for foam. It "melts" the foam back together without oozing glue so the repair seam disappears
ordered my ft-270 frame! Gothic it quick. thanks!
ALEX is aahh simple kind of mannn....cause a plane is, something.... he-can-love-and-understannnnd.
The footage from the Cessna 150 episode is epic!
Seriously what is not to like about this and many other vids that these guys put up. What provokes people to hit the not like thumb. Its just people having fun, showing what they do, if anything perhaps a not like could be a suggestion to improve rather than a negative input. These people make me laugh, they are an inspiration, they are genuine and they love what they do. I have watched them grow since they started out, they are a great success and they deserve every bit of it. Thanks for another video that made me laugh.
Love the vids FLITE TEST! Dont know why anyone would dislike it ;) keep up the good work
"piledrived into the dirt" oh boy 😂😂😂😂😂
Nice glue job! Could you go through what glue to use for different jobs?
we use mercury adhesives and then DO have different kinds for different uses... go check out their website for a full run down on stuff! ;)
Those hoops on the roof of the warehouse look perfect for a TINY WHOOP!!!!!!!
you know it! ha
You should practice landing and giving it elevator up and some throttle while the plane is comming to a stop, to push the tail down at those final moments.
It's fun to practice! :)
you need to put skids on that when it starts snowing. that would be cool :D
I am actually working on designing retractable wheel skis for a Super Cub S. Probably wouldn't require that much modification to make them work on the Valiant.
To be able to hangout with you guys for one day would be awesome!
Jacob Gary agreed
FliteTest you guys should do something like RCtestflight’s shuttle drop videos. Design some experimental high speed FPV glider/shuttles that can be dropped from really high up!!
Thumbs up for Bixler's jumper!!!
Hi the guy that flies the quad does a great job and gets a lot cool shots 👏🏻👏🏻, I noticed the tower in the background is it cell? You don't notice any interference? Thanks I liked seeing the warehouse.
You guys should try UHU Por, its perfect for foam repairs like this and you have time to let it dry and perfect the repair without the instantness of CA. In the end you have a cleaner repair job without CA stuck everywhere on your hands and on the fuse etc. Try it guys!! :-)
4:03 someone should make a Tshirt with that checklist on it
Nice repair
I have seen hobbytownusa has been selling your stuff!! Super cool that you are getting into big business's!
That's a awesome airplane! BTW, two questions: do you guys ship to Brazil? Have any idea of the shipping cost?
I believe we DO! ;) we JUST reduced our international shipping rates so def check it out on our store!
FliteTest I will, thanks! I'm asking because I didn't find it anywhere in the site. :/
So I have a quad and when I plug the battery in the quad beeps, acknowledging the battery and it pairs with the controller but it will not arm. What should I do?
TH-cam how to start up that type of drone, this usually helps, but if not contact your local hobby shop or Flite test. Goodluck.
Magnus alright thanks man. I wasn’t too sure what to do because it was working fine then all of a sudden it just stopped. I didn’t know if it was an easy thing to fix or what. Anyways thanks!
I found your kits in Hobby town this weekend
I look forward to the FliteTest videos. This one made me laugh... It also made me want to order something from FliteTest. I'm still making payments on the stuff I bought at Flite Fest West. :)
ha! Thanks so much for the kind words FishnFly! We do not want you to go bankrupt on OUR behalf! ;) happy holidays my friend!
Hey ft, could you do a video about betaflight and getting it installed, I am trying to build a gremlin with my father but we cant seem to get the flight controller to connect with the computer. Thanks.
John Montana I had a problem once an discovered a common cable that came with a device was charging only. Make sure you have a data cable not just power.
Great video
I was wondering when you guys were going to fix the Carbon Z Cessna’s
About time 👍🏻👍🏻
I'm laughing so hard at the Cessna scene
haha! Quality!!
Not too sound really dumb, but I can’t seem to get the motor mount of my Valiant to replace a broken prop shaft I snapped clean just taxiing . The plane so brand friggen new snd like my 40th eflite plane that I own.

Where did you get Stefan from? Because he's absolute GOLD!
HAHA!! Well, I appreciate the kind words my friend! Thanks so much for being a part of this amazing community!
Hiya Stefan! Not a problem. Your family may have processed an order for a FT gremlin on Black Friday. If so, that's my order you sent out! I hope I get it soon, and then I'll have to get myself a FPV headset. And then the fun can begin.... *silly and badly sounding bond villain laugh*
The end of this video had me in stiches.
haha SAME here and I have watched it 4-5 times now! ha
It is now the next morning, and I just had to watch this again while having my coffee.....cuz you know I'm a simple kinda man.......almost launched a mouth full of morning jo at my screen. I wish I worked as a member of your crew because if you enjoy your job you never another day of your life.........you guys are a riot.
Hey! I want to see you guys review the new dji fpv googles. They work with dji drones and have a 5.8 ghz receiver for race quads and such.

Matt mcgookey it’s called Thanksgiving
Hey matt! Just checked on it( you ordered an FT explorer! Ill check w the shipping crew tomorrow and see whats up! ;)
That’s awesome thanks a bunch!!
What song is playing at 2:40
what if you flew a wing in third person from another quad? both of the pilots will have their fpv set to the same channel and they can share more of an intertwined fpv experience!
We shall call it "The Pheonix" because it has risen from the ashes.
4:21 Same Here LOL!
I have the Eflite Valiant and I have had a number of HH products but this one has to be the best they have. Right now I have it and a Timber and the Timber has a lot of quality issues but the Valiant has none.
Hell man, your so scared the landing gear is going to come off, you have to fly her inverted!
ITS ALIVE!!!
haha felt GREAT to say that! ;) - stefan
Josh I love the sweater
You know what would be good
if you made an ugly drone or plane christmas sweater
I have a challenge idea. Install landing gear on the top of the plane and do inverted landings.
Nice what's your website to buy on
