I've heard of this method before. I've never used it, nor do I recommend it. You have to train yourself to not think of your left or your right, but the airplanes left and the airplanes right. Once you do that, it becomes second nature. Happy landings!
This video made my day. I won't ever forget your reaction after landing it the first time. I haven't seen pure joy in a while and you definitely felt it. Thanks for the video.
Yep. That is the best feeling ever. This vid brought me right back to my first RC flight about 30 years ago. The pure joy and excitement, and relief of getting that thing back to Earth in one piece after the total stress of the flight. I was jumping up and down in excitement. My next 10 flights weren’t as successful though. This was back in the day before “safe” technology to help you, and it was a gas powered plane of course. My first plane was a Sturdy Bird which was (almost) indestructible even though I managed to destroy a couple of them. I’m still flying all there years later. What a feeling, and it made me so proud and excited for him. What a day!!!!!
It was great to hear your buddy say something that my instructor said to me, many years ago. I asked him how high should I fly and he said “Three Mistakes High”. I’ll never forget that.
Great job!!! Kudos as well to your instructor. My first flight was fifty years ago with a Galloping Ghost radio. I'll never forget it even though there have been thousands of flights since. You made a memory that will last a lifetime and entertained us as well. Thanks!!!
Great video. Good to see someone so genuinely overcome with joy. I'm lookin to get my first one too and this is the best video I've seen as someone trying to learn also and I've watched many. Believe I'm going to buy same model and if I can fly my 1st like yours i believe I'll have same reaction. Hope you keep enjoying and progressing
Great maiden!!!! Yes - the joy in your laughs after your first flight is priceless. Good job! Great instructor - nice and calming instructions. Welcome to the hobby! -mikey
I've always been a ground runner other than sending it. I flew for the first time this weekend and completely understand your excitement. It's so different flying in the open sky and is killer doing acrobatics. Enjoyed the vid.
With any hobby having a good mentor or club with a lot of help is so important. I’m also into astronomy and without my local club and people to help me along the way my frustration would have me running away from the hobby
I know I'm late to this party but wow our hobby has come a long way. When I learned to fly we had to build our own plane from wood. There was no "safe" or gyro or electric power. My first trainer was Goldberg Falcon 56 on 3 channel with a Veco .29 engine. I still have that old Falcon. Don't fly it any more but I still use the engine and still having more fun than a 75 year old deserves.
That was great flying and loved the level of excitement you had,I'm just getting interested in RC planes and currently building a cardboard plane.hopefully get built soon enough to then try and find a place near me to fly it.
Excellent 1st time flying, WAY better than mine !!! I haven't attempted the 2nd flight since the 30 ft up retrieval, from the tree. LOL Way to go brother, keep practicing 👍👍
It seems like you started flying around the same time I did. The difference between us is you had someone teaching you like I wish i could find someone to reach me. I go weeks without flying because I don’t trust my skills enough to fly in any wind. There are no flying fields close to me or clubs so I still make a lot of mistakes. I have about 10 planes and with about6 of them have never been maidened because I don’t want to crash them I have some nice 800 mm warbirds from FMS and the never been flown because I don’t have a place to takeoff from. Good luck 👍👍👍🇨🇦🇨🇦
Hi @vincestapleton703 I'm new to the hobby, with a Carbon Cub S2 as well, what mode (Beginner, Int, Adv) do you use when landing? when landing in Beg or Int my plane would not nose down unless I apply throttle, are you experiencing this? thanks
@@juankaramirez Hi, nice to hear from you! I always use advanced mode for landing, that way, if things don’t look right, I’ve got plenty of control if for any reason I need to go around. I use full Flaps for some landings and the airplane goes into beginner mode (which I really dislike). As soon as I touch down, I retract the flaps and advanced mode comes back but it takes about 5 seconds for full maneuvering to return. Full flaps really slows the airplane down and sometimes I use full down elevator or the thing just floats and floats, doesn’t want to come down! Do you have a flight simulator?
@vincestapleton703 Thanks for your reply! Makes sense. it seems like final and landing needs to be done in advance mode. I don't have a simulator, I'm getting training and help at my local rc park, and the instructor had the same issues with beginner and intermediate mode. Thank you, and happy flying.
I've got one of those little Carbon Cub's, it's a nice fun easy to fly little plane. Based on how you are doing as a first timer I assume you spent some time on the Real Flight simulator. That's definitely a good way to start. Back when I started flying RC in the mid 1970's, we didn't have simulators. In those days it wasn't a matter of how long does it take to fly but rather a matter of how many airplanes.
Looks like great fun, nice job on your first attempt. Hope you are still flying the Cub and enjoying it as much as you are here. I'm only dreaming of flying one of these at this point, this has to be easier than flying an RC helicopter, I tried that and crashed a lot. lol
I have that same plane, but with the GPS. When they first came out, you could get them RTF with the GPS already installed. One of the biggest issues with new pilots is they get too far away. You proved that with Safe on, you can teach someone to fly. I learned with the Delta Ray using Safe technology. Good job buddy. Just know, if you take it out of Safe before you get the hang of it, you will crash it. It's a much different animal out of Safe. You did a Great job for your first flight.
I've had multiple 3k plus dji drones and a cpl FMS 1200mm rc planes, I wanna get back into it and I've been looking at this cub or something similar like the timber, want something easy to fly and that can do some maneuvers
The Commander MPD is beautiful, light, nimble, flies really nice slow, flies 60-70 mph and does acrobatics..a Small size @ 1.4M wingspan.. Can put 3" DuBro pneumatic wheels on for grass, great versatile plane..short takeoff, landing, handles winds really well.. I'm about to go Carbon-Z Cub, 2.1M (7'wingspan)PLENTY OF POWER! SWEET BABY TO LAND WITH 4,000 MAH/6S PACK😂❤RC!
@@outsourcedrc seems awesome. I’ll probably work on flying in intermediate mode before I look at another plane. Next plane will probably have flaps. For now though, I’m just glad to have something better than the old air hogs planes I used to fly as a kid.
Damn all with this guy to teach me to fly he's patient and he's calling voice about everything he doesn't get excited about anyting you got a good instructor dude God was teaching me to fly about laid out he was all nervous and he was more nervous and I was but then again I was flying it's $2,000
Congrats on your new entry into flying..... I just subscribed to your channel because I like your vibe when you present content in the RC hobby..... I’ve been watching your vids for a while now and I want you to know that I only subscribed to a small amount of guys here on the tube.....keep up the Gr8 vids my friend......😎☮️~~~out!!!
I ended up following a speck on my screen for two minuets at one point but this is what i have been looking for . someone as new as me trying some of these planes
Great job! I learned by myself with this same plane and your landings were much better. It was so hard to get it to drop down in SAFE but those initial landings it was a huge help, and being able to pop it back into SAFE when I needed it. It was so confusing though how intermediate mode flips into SAFE at a certain altitude.
I recently purchased this plane, haven't had a nice day to try it yet. I was also told it might be hard to land in safe. any tips for a soon to be solo attempt with no training?
Crashed my Dads in front of all his flying buddies not my favorite memory. He was way cool about it! He has hung up his wings was a real pilot too!!! Love my Papa! You are an awesome guy keep it up!!!
GPS will protect against losing orientation. Allows you to setup a virtual fence. Cost about $50 at Horizon Hobby. Of course, having all these safeguards can delay the full learning experience. Then again, "real" experience is probably more expensive 😉
@@outsourcedrc hey man I hear you. I am thinking of a small 3 channel plane, then moving to the a10 and maybe making a flitetest plane. Thanks man! Keep up the great vids
Its cool that this is your "first flight". The thing is, you have a buddy to set it up and you are with him and not by yourself. I taught myself long before you tube with gas powered balsa birds and I crashed the hell out of some hard work I did. I asked around and purchased a flying beer cooler like the one you have there, and I had no help, no flight simulator, did it all by myself. So, you have help...I didn't. Sorry bubb...🤣
ANYONE who has not Learned about GLIDING, is Not gonna know how to Gently, land a model plane. any pilot NEEDS to know, how THE model that he is flying, GLIDES.!!! gliding (a powered model) is Not about flying, slowly. i am not gonna sit thru the rest of this video. if you happen to have questions, about specific points/times in this video, i will answer them. cheers googletranslate
I used to fly RC planes in college a VERY long time ago and now my son wants to get into it. I've bought him this airplane and now the 2 of us are going to try to learn together as we have no one to teach us. I heard you mention extra dihedral, did you add more than what the plane is designed with?
I bet that with the wing struts, you could secure the attaching screws at the outer most position of the slots, which might exert a modest bit of upward pressure on the wings. Probably not much, but more than nothing I would guess.
Great video! I bought one of these along with the Real Flight Trainer Edition simulator, looking forward to my first flight. Were you using the DXs transmitter that comes with the RTF version?

One phrase that helped me more than anything... when the plane is facing you push the stick to the low wing.
I've heard of this method before.
I've never used it, nor do I recommend it.
You have to train yourself to not think of your left or your right, but the airplanes left and the airplanes right.
Once you do that, it becomes second nature.
Happy landings!
@@richard1472 it becomes second nature either way. It’s just an easy little trick to help in the beginning
@@michaelyoung4550 best trick is to visualize you are inside the cockpit!
What does it mean?..
@@jimbob8973if the plane is tilting to one side or the other, pushing the stick toward the wing that is dipping will level it out.
This guy shows the excitement. Every guy gets when he's flying a plane. Good job.

The joy in your first landing is incredible, ty a lot to reminde me my first flight at 11 years old with my popa
12:10 and that feeling right there is why i started selling off all my rc cars.
There is not a greater feeling in this hobby than your first flight with a fully intact aircraft at the end welcome to the club 😀

Great to see the joy of a child on Christmas morning in an adult male! I need to get one of these!

That was great flying and loved the level of excitement you had,I'm just getting interested in RC planes and currently building a cardboard plane.hopefully get built soon enough to then try and find a place near me to fly it.
Nice to see a beginner demonstrating a new plane instead of pro flyers. Gives a good perspective and the excitement of learning to fly.
Excellent 1st time flying, WAY better than mine !!! I haven't attempted the 2nd flight since the 30 ft up retrieval, from the tree. LOL Way to go brother, keep practicing 👍👍
Thanks! You can do it! Just go get some practice in.
Great voice over, lots of hints I’ll use. Pity I couldn’t see the aircraft most of the time. Good landing.
no. they were good landings. you did great.
Nice to see feedback on this from someone at my skill level.

Well done on your first flight. I'm yet to do that but my plane is ready to go. Just need a good day.
Noce !! You got your wings
My first 6 flights had takeoffs good flights 0 landings. Great job man. I built a bunch of flite test planes easy to build easy to fix.
I’m new to Rc planes and I feel your joy with that first flight!! Awesome job!
The Carbon Cub S-2 rocks!
I have one too and I love it!
You got a very good airplane. Very nice gentle flying characteristics and forgiving.
Have fun!

I always wanted to get into RC planes and the enthusiasm in your video just convinced me to place an order for this plane. Which I have just done.
Its a great one! You will love it!
Looks like great fun, nice job on your first attempt. Hope you are still flying the Cub and enjoying it as much as you are here. I'm only dreaming of flying one of these at this point, this has to be easier than flying an RC helicopter, I tried that and crashed a lot. lol
Nice landing....looking forward to my first flight in the spring
Great job, great advise from the trainer.
Great day, at a great place. Was hoping for an XMAXX speed run in that field though!
I felt every bit of your excitement and accomplishment! Just found your channel with this video. Looking forward to watching more. Subscribed. 👍

Picked up a aero scout 1.1 about a month ago to train myself with. So far it’s been epic I’m just working on getting out of the stabilizer mode
I saw that at the hobby shop. I wanted a bush plane. I'm going to put flaps on this one and practice with it.

I've got this one but have never flown it due to various kick downs and weather. I have the previous GPS version.

Thanks! I will!
that sucks though, you should buy him new one for xmas or something
Don't forget to join the AMA
Forget the ama
Hi guy's does safe help if you lose orientation? For example getting mixed up with knowing if the plane is flying away from you or towards you.?
I don't think it does. Safe just prevents you from rolling it over in the air basically
GPS will protect against losing orientation. Allows you to setup a virtual fence. Cost about $50 at Horizon Hobby. Of course, having all these safeguards can delay the full learning experience. Then again, "real" experience is probably more expensive 😉
When learning always picture yourself behind the plane.
Well done my man 👌
O man I fill u nice flight 😊👍
Orientation.... Always put yourself in the cockpit.
I always do. I've been playing games and driving RCs for over 20 years
Nice flay go
Damn screws and the d bags lol
I am looking forward to getting in to that product series too, and then edf jets 😬😬

Cool but I couldn't see it most of the time, can you make a video zoomed in further?

1st one i bought. Too scared to fly it. Its so beautiful i had to sell it. I fly others less expensive. What goes up must come down
A 1.3 millimeter carbon club is a really small carbon club!
very cool. I want to join the rc plane hobby aswell but my county does not allow rc planes anywhere. :(
Can't see the plane at all. Nice blue sky!
I used to fly RC planes in college a VERY long time ago and now my son wants to get into it. I've bought him this airplane and now the 2 of us are going to try to learn together as we have no one to teach us. I heard you mention extra dihedral, did you add more than what the plane is designed with?
No. Not really. My friend bent the wings up slightly but I dont think it did anything. It's easy to fly. This is one of the best beginner aircraft.
I bet that with the wing struts, you could secure the attaching screws at the outer most position of the slots, which might exert a modest bit of upward pressure on the wings. Probably not much, but more than nothing I would guess.
Great video! I bought one of these along with the Real Flight Trainer Edition simulator, looking forward to my first flight. Were you using the DXs transmitter that comes with the RTF version?
No. I use a DX8e.
How long did it take you to be ready for the new plane? I just got off safe mode on my aeroscout. Getting ready for my new pa 18 super cub.
That laugh when you landed.....omg you sound goofy as hell....lol
I'm just learning the hobby and have yet to fly but I hear the Draco did t turn out as good as the original plane which sucks
