The F14 is still my favorite jet to look at. There's just something about the Tomcat. I was stationed in San Diego for about 20 years for work. I drove past the MCAS at Miramar at least twice a day. In the early 2000's they were still flying Tomcats there. It was like a daily airshow. Thanks for stirring those memories. That's a nice model you've got there. Happy flying amigo. 🍻
Great Maiden Sir, your the only one who demoed this beauty in less than ideal field conditions. Gave me some confidence that this model will do fine at my less than manicured field. Kudos😊
Hey Bobby, have to say its sure nice to see your doing rc plane reviews! Always enjoyed your videos, hope to see alot more of them, great review of the new tomcat, keep up the great work, very happy your back!!! Robert
Awesome shit brother! Nothing dead about your stick, Tom Cruise would be jealous. It’s 2024 can’t they start making the Lipo batteries with longer runtimes? How about a 20 minute flight time. I’m just sitting here eating my Stouffer‘s French bread pizzas watching RC Heaven!
Bobby. That bad boy lookin good man. I see you elected to run one your antenna external. I was thinking that may be the best option as well with all the carbon fiber in this plane. Great flights and "save" on that touch and ut oh ---lol. Glad it all went well. I can see this one becoming one your favorites from Motion. 👍👍
Based on some other maiden flights of this 64mm F-14, I'm wondering how it does with flaps, both half and full. There is at least 1 report of an asymmetric wing sweep causing a crash. Are the wing sweep ball links and connecting rods solid? There's also the concern of flaps causing the wing sweep to bind if the flaps are not UP when sweeping aft. Does the included 'MIX BOX' take care of that automatically or must it be programmed?
A lot of problems I’ve seen are from poor setup and pilot error. Everything on the plane is pretty solid and well built. The wing sweep ball links and connecting rods seem to be strong and I haven’t had any issues yet with anything mechanical. You should be flaps up when sweeping the wings so I’m not sure why a lot of pilots blame it on the plane when it’s clearly pilot error if you forget to put them up after takeoff. Pilots could probably program some flap features in to avoid this issue but I don’t see it necessary. Hope this helped a little, if you have any other questions feel free to ask! Thanks for watching and happy flying! ✈️🤙
Oh wow, stumbled across this channel and there is Bobby K. I was wondering what happened to you as I used to see you on Pilot Ryan channel and you were great, chill, positive vibes, excellent pilot. I subscribed and hope you keep doing lots more reviews and flights here!
One of the best flight I have seen on this new F14 I must say. Now you can see how good this new f14 flies when you set it up right and take it a little easy. And it seems that it is no wind either and that seems to help a lot. Not all planes like windy conditions and this one looks like it is one of them, calm days seems to be the key here and she can fly this good. Then I know that you are a really good pilot as well and that helps of course :-) Keep up the good work! Greetings from Sweden
Wow! Great maiden, well spaced turns, fantastic grass landing and thoughs swept wings look amazing. I would love to move on to jets one day. As you can see I fly warbirds over the White Cliffs of Dover, England. The smile on your face at the end says so much. Happy flying my friend, I would love to know how much juice you had left ! Oh, maybe don't sweep wings whilst banking ! ✈🛫
Hey Bobby, not bad dude 😉 if you watched my old tomcat videos I loved to kept it sweeped for most of my flight. This one looks more sporty for sure. I wanted one but needed to wait. Otherwise you would have seen my review of it. 😅 sorry we didn't get to hook up when you was here in Southern California😊 we was just super tired from the event 😴
It’s not small, but it’s small enough to look weird next to your 1500mm freewing models. It really only has two problems: it’s noticeably smaller than your typical 8s, and there’s no co pilot. Everyone had the same issues with the 8s: it flies awful, it’s 1kg too heavy, it takes $150 of battery, and the landing gear is fragile. The 60mm has none of those issues, plus it has the Jolly Roger livery, and it only takes a single 6s, and the battery bay is large enough for a 6s 10,000ma battery which will provide 10mins of flight. This is the fastest selling thing on motionRC and for good reason. I’m picking one up in July, because I have a rule that I must maiden my first jet before buying another. I’m waiting to maiden my f22 with more than $600 of upgrades. You can’t just take a 150mph jet to just any park, and I live within airspace of an airport, so all flight is limited to 60m. My f22 is capable of 10m/s and can exceed the altitude limit without trying.
Bobby k this your new channel? I remember you from the affordable dynam days my friend, you taught me how to handle my planes better good seeing you just subscribed you should come watch ⌚ me SOAR sometime! I'd think you would like it. Nice flight, onelove😊

That would have been pretty awesome to see everyday!
Hey Bobby, excellent maiden and grass op flight of the sweet Freewing F-14! Man you killed it on the setup as well! Thumbs up and best regards!
BADASS 😍
Nice maiden and great ripping! Nice to see it can handle some terrain. Awesome job buddy!
All right Bobby K was to rip the F14. Zoom zoom zoom Jeff in LA USA
They really made up for the 80mm brick with this one... Gonna maiden and tune ours on Sunday. Awesome little package man! 🤘😁
Great Maiden Sir, your the only one who demoed this beauty in less than ideal field conditions. Gave me some confidence that this model will do fine at my less than manicured field. Kudos😊
Thank you! It did really well for it not being a manicured and cut field.
Bobby k glad to see u back bro. Nice flight
AWESOME I love your flying!!! lm glad to see you making videos on TH-cam again
Keep them coming I’m a big fan 👍👍😄
Thank you! There will be a lot more to come and livestreams will start soon as well! Happy Flying ✈️

Looks like they addressed the grass ops issues of the 80mm. Curious to how she holds up to mulitiple grass op flights.

Great job!
Very nice love it😊
That landing gears are tough. Nice landing!
The gear are great on it. They can definitely take a beating in rough grass. Thank you for watching!

Well done brother!
Awesome man!! Love that shit that was sick!!
Good to see you back! Subscribed 🌵👍
That’s very cool Freewing F111 next I hope.
A F111 would awesome!
Enjoyed that, thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it, thank you for watching! Happy Flying ✈️
Sounds amazing
It's been way over due Bobby, we need dem videos popping up Bro 😂
Very Cool Bobby K

What? No knife edge? Oh Bobby I’m so disappointed in you 😂 great video dude! Beautiful flying as always
Next time I’ll knife edge it for sure! Lol
@@DEADSTICKRC you better mr lol
I have some 1/8 scale, monster truck tires. I don’t use that I can send you for that bumpy grass!
Those would help! 🤣
Great flight! Did you balance with the wing CG marks or fuselage?
@@porternesbitt I went off of the wing CG marks. Thanks for watching!
Nice job "k" !
Lovely plane bro ❤❤❤ new supporter here 🔥🔥🔥👊🏼
Thank you!
I know this comes equipped with a programmed gyro but would it be possible to program this with a SAFE Spektrum receiver? I
Yes, you could program it to a spectrum but you will have to bypass the stock board in the plane. It will require a lot of programming.
awesome man
Do you have any vids on how to bind a stick and throttle(HOTAS) to your rc plane?
Unfortunately I do not.
Ok, I came across this channel by accident. I didn't know Bk was still out in the either.....
B subbin.
I’m back and a lot more to come! Thanks for the sub bud!
Hey Bobby new to your chan nice job. I just got one myself, in the build process. Gave a sub and like bud.
Thank you! I hope your maiden goes well. It’s a great flying bird!
I can't wait to get mine out ! I'm in northern Illinois it's snowing here today lol . What battery did you use and placement? Great flight!!
I’m in Northern Indiana so I feel your pain lol. I used a Spektrum 6s 5000 all the way back until it was hitting the wires.
Nice Bobby! I subd
Thank you! Happy Flying ✈️🤙
Sweet! (Is the 80mm version really a brick?)
It’s not bad, I really liked my 80mm version. I had the high performance edfs in it.
@@DEADSTICKRC when you say “liked”- is that past tense? Bummer!
@@Killerplanes Yeup, it’s gone to the plane heavens now lol. Wish they’d all last forever but unfortunately some don’t make it. Haha
Donde se puede conseguir ese modelo
What happened to the Hobby Shop you were running in California
Its still there, I just decided to go another direction.
what is the function of the gyro? Is that equivalent to the "safety" mode of the Eflite f14 twin 40mm jet???
Reply
Wow looks so difficult to land
It’s lands pretty good, just have to make sure to keep your airspeed up. Happy Flying! ✈️🤙
i think i would need a camera to see all i need :)@@DEADSTICKRC
You are really good in it big respect. I only fly F-14 in DCS@@DEADSTICKRC
Land it as a delta. I think it will do it with ease, and no one’s made a video of doing it yet.
Exactly, really curious and asked if they would do it on RCInformers channel and he said Wesly did but I don't think they put up vid yet so who knows.
Next time I have it out I will definitely try it!
Bobby K , nice maiden, I did my friends this morning
Holy shit you fly so good, I hate you.😊 Just kidding 😮. Great pilot man..
Thank you! There will be a lot more to come! The Freewing Euro Fighter and B25 are up next!
doesnt the gear take along time to deploy??
Yes, they do take a little longer than other planes. It’s not a deal breaker though.
So we're you using 100% throw on Elevator and what for expo
I was at 100% throw on elevator with 20% Expo
@@DEADSTICKRC Thanks for the info
seen one guy dip a wing coming in and crashed, does this fly stable enough? how to land??
It flys very stable. You just have to keep your speed up, especially when coming in for landings.
@@DEADSTICKRC freewing needs to put low bouce wheels on this plane and all there jets.
👊👊👍👍😊😊
Bobby k this your new channel? I remember you from the affordable dynam days my friend, you taught me how to handle my planes better good seeing you just subscribed you should come watch ⌚ me SOAR sometime! I'd think you would like it. Nice flight, onelove😊
Yes sir it is! Nice to see you back and thank you for the sub! I will definitely come check out some soaring! Happy flying 🤙✈️
@@DEADSTICKRC No doubt, thanks my friend
Hey Bobby !! Sup Bro !!
Hey buddy! Thanks for watching!
All stock?
Yes, it is all box stock.
What battery should I run for this jet?
Use a 6s 5000mah 50c -100c battery pack. I run Spektrum and HRB packs and both seem to perform well.
$400+ Never!!! Those toys should never be more the $100. Don't take this wrong... I love it.
What happend to bitgo ???
I’m done working with bitgo. Bigger and better things coming!
2.5 mins flt. Time sucks. I brush my eyebrows longer.
