Yeah, man that's small. When I was about 12 yrs old, I was grounded to my room for a while. I wanted to be able to fly my plane, but you can't fly a Piper Tripacer with a 53.24" wingspan in a BEDROOM. SO, I designed a MINI BI-PLANE, and used some of my scrap Balsa wood to build it. I made it a 3"inch wingspan, and fuselage about 3.25 length. I made it a MINI GLIDER, I used a brad nail for nose weight. It could do a loop, and glide. Flying it in my bedroom. Ha. Ha. Yes it was cool.
I love all you guys at flitetest, what you do is amazing, trying to introduce RC flying to the community, and the plans you guys have are great, I love anything RC and would love to get into this hobby but no way can I afford it. keep going guys, don't stop doing what you love!
Luke Rosevear they have free plans on their website and they use dollar tree foam board and hot glue. you can build a plane for a few bucks! the electronics can get pricey but look for used stuff in your area or try hobbyking.com. it is not cheap but it is not as expensive as most people think.
Luke Rosevear crashes happen and thats ok. learn from it, rebuild and try again. rc simulators are alot of fun. practice, have fun, crash and hit the reset button and youre ready to go again.
I flew the duet some time ago, that thing rocks, almost indestructible and really stable, plus it can fly outside quite well if the wind is not too strong.
I recently bought a hobbyzone duet and it flies surprisingly well! Here in Spain we're having a lot of wind lately, but that's not a problem for the duet. You can even glide with it because its engines will make it turn even with no throttle. I would totally recommend it.
I have the duet because my dad wanted to teach me how to fly. Fast forward a couple months and now I taught my friend and he has nearly mastered simple maneuvers.
I've had the night vapour for attest 1-2 years now and it's great flown it over 300 times and still using the same original prop it came with. Great slow plane, also good for night flying :)
Sorry but the Hobbyzone Duet is the winner here. I have priced the night vapor. The cheapest vapor is still $30 more than the Duet. The Duet is truly RTF. Everything you need to fly within 30 mins of purchase(time to charge battery) is in the box. It flies in a field or in a yard. It will even carry a small camera. Durability is also amazing. If it does break, it can be fixed with gorilla glue. I keep expecting to have to buy a new plane every time I crash and the darn thing just won't die. Moreover the Duet is very very easy to fly. It helps build confidence in new pilots regardless of their age and that in turn leads to success and a more enjoyable experience and increases the chance that the hobby will grow. I have nothing against the other planes on the list. They're all fine, but the Duet is just everything in a perfect little package. Also it looks good and tracks like its on rails.
The parrot bebop 2 does that TOO , but ,,,,, it's not safe for the other party goers ..lol.. But it's a great way to let everyone know it's time to go home.👍👍
Love the Duet, it's really fun to practice takeoffs and landings, very maneuverable so it's really easy. Great plane to mess around with or learn on. Great video guys.
I recently bought a hobbyzone duet and it flies pretty well even with strong wind! Of course it's gonna break if you crash it, but it's easy to fly. It's a nice begginer for a very low price, but dont expect it to survive hard crashes.
Nice video! This is a good guide for beginners, but I notice Josh Scott is hitting the elevator quite hard on the vapor. This might have changed since I got my Vapor, but they generally like a low amount of elevator. Also, I can say the Vapor does fly well, as I have over 500 hours of flight time on mine. One tip I can share, is that Cling wrap is a great substitute skinning if you rip the original. Cover it slowly, super glue it, then cut away the excess. Hope this helps some one, and thanks for posting!
We love your videos. From my two young boys who watch your videos with me as part of story time. 😄😍 big fans. So much that we have just got into rc flying.
FT flyer is such a great plane for beginners and more experienced pilots. I've been considering the duet and/or a night vapor just for fun. Loved the video! Thanks for being awesome!
I have the duet and it is beat the crap up from hundreds of really bad crashes and it weighs atleast twice from all the glue I have put on it, one of my friends broke the wing off and it glued back on
I have the duet. The only time I ever crashed it was on its first flight, and that was because it was a little too windy. All my other flights have been perfect- it's extremely maneuverable and easy to fly. Would recommend.
When I was a kid, about 12yrs old. I Designed a Mini Bi plane glider with a 3"inch wingspan, and fuselage about 3.25"inches long. Made of Balsa wood. I used part of a brad nail for nose weight. It could do a loop and glide. Flying it in my bedroom, COOL.
The Vapor is the best first indoor plane for a beginner. Intermediate pilots should go for the UMX AS3Xtra. I'm normally outdoors flying large scale, however still love having a go with the Vapor.
Love it! Just got a DJI Wookong carbon core cortex dji zenmuse z15 5d and I am planing to do such an event with drone down in Brazil, Rio Grande do Sul, Caxias do Sul, will post you guys a video!!!!!
Considering downloading the plans and making your own. That's what I did (with lots of advice from good people at www.rcgroups.com admittedly). While speed build kits must be cool, you would anyway need to glue, cut, solder the electronics, install servos and pushrods and all of that. The first plane I made is an FT Flyer,because I loved the shape, it is not too hard to build from plans. But, now I am making another one easier to fly, and I will spend some time flying that. Josh makes it look easy, because he is such a good pilot, but I think the FT flyer is not necessarily the best first plane to learn on, other designs are more forgiving for a beginner and faster to repair or simply to rebuild from scratch for the cost of a few bucks of foam, which is important because at first you will probably crash quite a few times
that duet flies really good for a diff thrust plane. ive never seen a toy rc with diff thrust fly that good. I guess adding a elevator really makes a big difference.
Hi, I'm about to get my first plane. I've been looking into the speed build swappable 3-pack, the Cox Hobbies Sky Cruiser, and now, the Duet. How does the Duet handle in light to moderate wind conditions?
Hey flite test i love the show and a friend and i are looking to get into fpv batbones. I think a tutorial on how to run 2 or 3 fpv setups would really help. like what Frequencies we should choose and why
Nice video, guys! I've been waiting for a video reviewing the HobbyZone Duet and this one is the best! Now i really know i want to start with that one, thanks!
The Duet is 100% my favorite airplane. I've had three of them. They're very simple to fly and can do awesome tricks. Anybody wondering if they should buy one, DO IT. The only con of the plane is the battery compartment, it's held with Velcro and usually comes off after a crash
I crashed my duet a huge amount of times and now my motor one of my motor leads broke and I had to solder them back on the battery also broke in a crash it broke in three days, I'm not sure if it will even work after fixing it I need to get a new battery for it
Bought a Duet, Love it, but HORRIBLE in wind. The box says 5 MPH or lower wind. Easy to fly, and for $60 it's a great start to tell you if RC planes is going to be your thing or not.
i just bought the Duet couple weeks ago seeing this makes me want to get into the air but were life they only have the highschool gym an they only open it for a craft fair an sporting events to the public
I have the Duet it is an amazing plane and handles well especially at half throttle. It is very durable I accidentally crashed it nose first. Dumb thumb moment😂. If you are considering to get it is worth the 64$ for RTF. It's amazing! I do recommend to get more batteries as it charges for 20-25 minutes.
The Night Vapor is awesome! The Mini Vapor would've been an even better indoor choice. That thing is TINY.
I agree i love the night vapor

I'll be honest... I'm watching in July 2016 and it might just be my favorite flitetest video

me too i just got my first rc plane today

That sounds really good, I might start flight RC but what goes up must come down. lol, ill start off with a simulator. :)

@@iampapahomer3865 oohhjooh
I have had the duet for three years, I have broken it many times. It still flies!!!!! The duet is the best trainer plane!!!!
I own a Night Vapor and I love it! You can make it hang on the prop, which is not easy for most planes that don't have ailerons
I flew the duet some time ago, that thing rocks, almost indestructible and really stable, plus it can fly outside quite well if the wind is not too strong.
Cool! Yeah I’ve heard those are really solid little fliers.
On mine, I've ripped the starboard wing off, the fuselage in half, and obliterated the nose. *Aggressive Scotch Tape Noises.*
*Fixed*
Found out the hard way that the duet can do any wind. She took off and a big gust of wind took her into the wild blue yonder, never to be seen again.
I recently bought a hobbyzone duet and it flies surprisingly well! Here in Spain we're having a lot of wind lately, but that's not a problem for the duet. You can even glide with it because its engines will make it turn even with no throttle. I would totally recommend it.
I have a Duet too! I can literally just fly it whenever I want in my back yard! I really like my Duet!
Good video to watch in quarantine for 2020
I have the duet because my dad wanted to teach me how to fly. Fast forward a couple months and now I taught my friend and he has nearly mastered simple maneuvers.

I love my Night Vapor, its the only plane I can fly in the dark drunk at 2 am! Not that I condone that sort of behaviour, lol

Im not into planes or anything but tossing the idea around. You sir, just made my decision.
The parrot bebop 2 does that TOO , but ,,,,, it's not safe for the other party goers ..lol..
But it's a great way to let everyone know it's time to go home.👍👍
lol I wanna try that
but I’m not old enough to drink
I agree. Everyone should get at least 8hrs of sleep
You guys should really try and build an airplane using the Magnus effect it would me really really cool
they did
i mean not them but one guy allready did his name is peter I think

Zachariah Crenshaw wtf man
@@TheRealAverageZac pictures don't work like that man
Wow! I always thought i wouldn't have enough money to have fun flying rc planes but know I think I am going to go for the duet, it looks tons of fun!
It's cool to see Josh getting better over time.
Love the Duet, it's really fun to practice takeoffs and landings, very maneuverable so it's really easy. Great plane to mess around with or learn on. Great video guys.
I recently bought a hobbyzone duet and it flies pretty well even with strong wind! Of course it's gonna break if you crash it, but it's easy to fly. It's a nice begginer for a very low price, but dont expect it to survive hard crashes.
Nice video! This is a good guide for beginners, but I notice Josh Scott is hitting the elevator quite hard on the vapor. This might have changed since I got my Vapor, but they generally like a low amount of elevator. Also, I can say the Vapor does fly well, as I have over 500 hours of flight time on mine. One tip I can share, is that Cling wrap is a great substitute skinning if you rip the original. Cover it slowly, super glue it, then cut away the excess. Hope this helps some one, and thanks for posting!
We love your videos. From my two young boys who watch your videos with me as part of story time. 😄😍 big fans. So much that we have just got into rc flying.
Josh,Josh & Alex; Thanks for the Video & looks like a Fun time !
You guys should do a review of the UMX Radian, been wanting the Radian but it is too big for my current travel situation; is the UMX for me?
I really wish I had an indoor place to fly of any kind, and I would really love to have one like this!!!!
Bixler's laugh cracks me up, great video guys.
FT flyer is such a great plane for beginners and more experienced pilots. I've been considering the duet and/or a night vapor just for fun. Loved the video!
Thanks for being awesome!
just scratch built my ft flyer, absolutely a fun plane to fly. takes a beating and keeps going, wing tape and hot glue it's back up ready to go.
I have the duet and it is beat the crap up from hundreds of really bad crashes and it weighs atleast twice from all the glue I have put on it, one of my friends broke the wing off and it glued back on
I have the duet. The only time I ever crashed it was on its first flight, and that was because it was a little too windy. All my other flights have been perfect- it's extremely maneuverable and easy to fly. Would recommend.
Also you can put the motors from a micro quad such as the hubsan x4 or Walkera ladybird on to the Duet they're higher rpm, and more powerful.
I learned to fly on a duet. Handled fine in wind but overall a great beginner
you guys should talk about the Ember 2, it handles wind better than the night vapor but is still slow and easy to fly.
I used to fly the mini vapor and the duet. They were awesome. Although I managed to break the duet
When I was a kid, about 12yrs old. I Designed a Mini Bi plane glider with a 3"inch wingspan, and fuselage about 3.25"inches long. Made of Balsa wood. I used part of a brad nail for nose weight. It could do a loop and glide. Flying it in my bedroom, COOL.
This video right here got me into the hobby, thanks 🙏
The Vapor is the best first indoor plane for a beginner. Intermediate pilots should go for the UMX AS3Xtra. I'm normally outdoors flying large scale, however still love having a go with the Vapor.
This is probably my favorite video of flite test. i just like the indoor videos.
Yesterday I instantly bought the duet cause it is so cheap and rtf.
Looks like fun times. We need to do some of that at our indoor flights. Good ideas.
Intermediate/ Advanced indoor planes next? I love the micro spitfire with AX3X.
Love it! Just got a DJI Wookong carbon core cortex dji zenmuse z15 5d and I am planing to do such an event with drone down in Brazil, Rio Grande do Sul, Caxias do Sul, will post you guys a video!!!!!
Have you guys considered looking for a glass blower to blow really thin glass to make wings?
If you want a good one, try the QF-002. I learned to fly on that plane.
Thanks guys for doing what you do! Ordering my first plane very soon!
proving once again that this should be FUN!!
The Duet is one awesome plane!!!
This video inspired me to fly, thank you for getting me this 3 years of experience to get the bird in my bio ;)
I was thinking of getting the ft flyer as a first plane after watching this video. But it seems to be unavailable on your site.
Israel Contreras yes I’m so sad😭😭
Considering downloading the plans and making your own. That's what I did (with lots of advice from good people at www.rcgroups.com admittedly). While speed build kits must be cool, you would anyway need to glue, cut, solder the electronics, install servos and pushrods and all of that. The first plane I made is an FT Flyer,because I loved the shape, it is not too hard to build from plans. But, now I am making another one easier to fly, and I will spend some time flying that. Josh makes it look easy, because he is such a good pilot, but I think the FT flyer is not necessarily the best first plane to learn on, other designs are more forgiving for a beginner and faster to repair or simply to rebuild from scratch for the cost of a few bucks of foam, which is important because at first you will probably crash quite a few times
you can buy RC cars here for about £7-50, i wonder if it would be possible to use the components to make an RC plane
i got the duet when i got into the hobby, it flew well but when i crashed, it held up extremely bad
Same here, a (gentle) tap on the side of a gutter, the whole tail broke off. oh well. you get what you pay for.
Is the 300 foot flying area for the Hobbyzone Duet the radio range or the recommended flying area? The manual says radio range is 300 foot.
that duet flies really good for a diff thrust plane. ive never seen a toy rc with diff thrust fly that good. I guess adding a elevator really makes a big difference.
Hi, I'm about to get my first plane. I've been looking into the speed build swappable 3-pack, the Cox Hobbies Sky Cruiser, and now, the Duet. How does the Duet handle in light to moderate wind conditions?
Please do a review on the night vapor by itself
Hey have u ever thought of making the Hobby Zone duet plane a seaplane with floats under each motor.
I see crashed planes in the back and I was wondering if I could buy some if the price is right
Hey flite test i love the show and a friend and i are looking to get into fpv batbones. I think a tutorial on how to run 2 or 3 fpv setups would really help. like what Frequencies we should choose and why
Nice video, guys! I've been waiting for a video reviewing the HobbyZone Duet and this one is the best! Now i really know i want to start with that one, thanks!
Could you guys make a video of the champ and duet and compare?
Is it a gimble on that long pole because it looks really smooth!
Is the twin engine one good for out doors? What's the wind limit?
Evidently the Swapables are no longer available, correct?
What we saying about fpv cameras on there, could I put one on???
The Duet is 100% my favorite airplane. I've had three of them. They're very simple to fly and can do awesome tricks. Anybody wondering if they should buy one, DO IT. The only con of the plane is the battery compartment, it's held with Velcro and usually comes off after a crash
What type of tricks? Is it BNF?
+Glidersandplanes I guess I should've elaborated: it can do A trick: flips. It's a RTF
Where can you buy the disks that go over the radio controls?
What radio would you recommend for a beginner like me?
I just did the review flight on the new umx night vapor on my channel
I have a duet but it crashed and nose down in the wing detached but the ESC wires is what's keeping it on how should i repair it
are you guys using a gopro gimbal on that long pole?
When the quality of a video is so good you don’t even realize it’s from 4 years ago
I crashed my duet a huge amount of times and now my motor one of my motor leads broke and I had to solder them back on the battery also broke in a crash it broke in three days, I'm not sure if it will even work after fixing it I need to get a new battery for it
Hey FT I love your show, would it be possible to do some reviews on the parkzone warbirds like the corsair, mosquito,ect.? Thanks I love the show!
Great video, amazing idea with the control limiters! Will be great for teaching my son
Bought a Duet, Love it, but HORRIBLE in wind. The box says 5 MPH or lower wind. Easy to fly, and for $60 it's a great start to tell you if RC planes is going to be your thing or not.
Night Vapor is so much fun on a calm summer evening
Where an one get the gimble limiters you showed?
i just bought the Duet couple weeks ago seeing this makes me want to get into the air but were life they only have the highschool gym an they only open it for a craft fair an sporting events to the public
i want to get into the hobby but i’m 27 what’s a good starter that i’ll still like a few months down the road
Not sure if I'm laughing with you guys or at Bixler's laugh. Amazing!
My cousin got the duet, he flew it for the first time and as soon as he tried to turn right, the whole left wing snapped clean in half. What the heck?
i had a duet but the servos were wired the wrong way thus making it shatter on the ground
WOOO I have been begging for you guys to try out the night vapor!
can you guys suggest a beginner gyroplane for indoors flying?
I have the Duet it is an amazing plane and handles well especially at half throttle. It is very durable I accidentally crashed it nose first. Dumb thumb moment😂. If you are considering to get it is worth the 64$ for RTF. It's amazing! I do recommend to get more batteries as it charges for 20-25 minutes.
What type of landing gears are those on the FT Flyer?
Do u guys have a rtf plane that my son could have rc planes are a little out of budget
would a 3s 20c 800mah amp work for the nutball set up?
wow i'm i your first likes?
what battery do you use on the ft flyer? my ft flyer is really tail heavy with a 2s 500mah lipo...
U guy make me feel so happy after every shit school day
Hey flite test ive always wanted a duet can i upgrade the motors ?
problem with twin motors and no rudder is no control when gliding... gotta throttle D:
Can you reduce the price of transmitter in your store
Did you say "...turn up the eny a little bit..."?
Aces High 2 much?
wait does the hobby zone duet come with a remote controler or do you have to buy one
It´s RTF, you have everithing.
The duet is amazing. Flying for 8 months
Hey! Do you have a pattern download for those Spektrum stick limiters?
You guys should sell them!
I ordered the duet excited for it to arrive
This one or FMS BUTTERYFLY 352MM ?
I got that hobbyzone duet And Its hard to fly it in finland cuz winter and windy all the time :(
I get nostalgic watching this
Hi Flight Teat so you ship gear to Australia
