Hi am 12 and I always wanted a RC plane I don't know what to start out with because Christmas is close and an looking forward to getting an RC plane please help me find one
I am new to the hobby. Started 70+ years ago flying U-control gas planes that I built. The new now planes are super. Thanks for the warm up demo's. Can't wait to get my own "wart hog".
Had an A-10 Strafe in Afghanistan when I was in the army. What a cool day that was. They blew up dirt hut that we were taking sniper fire from. BRRRRRRT boom cya next life bois
I’m not saying you’re wrong but I own one and just now ordered another. Maybe look a little harder ha. But thanks for saying that because I want a backup after thinking that might be the case.
@@redwingsfan3621 Apparently they took it off the market for like 2 weeks and have now put up a revamped version with reverse thrust for a much higher price (almost 450 USD). Since I only have a dx6 I'm actually glad I got the earlier version now. But honestly the main draw of e flite is the as3x and since that single handedly almost destroyed my A-10 I can comfortably say just get the PNP version or the freewing A-10 at nearly half the price for almost the same thing
Is this also optimal for beginner ? I used to fly planes when I was younger and im thinking to get back to the Hobby again. Since i saw this plane I rly wanna get my hands on it and fly it. Ofc after practicing on simulator first.
Hi, I'm Brazilian, congratulations on the video.. I loved the 2 jets... But I really wanted to be able to buy the E-Flite A10 Thunderbolt II one day... hugs.
@@trainsplanesandautomobiles2547 Almost everything is FPV compatible if you're creative enough! But yeah, I bought a second canopy hatch, pulled the clear plastic of and installed a Foxeer Pico Razer in pilot seat with RunCam TX200U 25-200mW VTX. Such a light weight, under 6g, and nice combo.
The first time I saw an A-10 was when I was stationed at ft Campbell KY. It immediately became my favorite bird. I have the umx, but want the bigger one. Unfortunately I just read a comment saying it was discontinued. That's too bad
I’ve only seen A-10s flying once, and we happened to get it on camera!! We were on vacation in GA and they were flying in formation (just two of them) along the beach, really low. It was honestly Amazing!! Yes, it has been discontinued, but I have a feeling Horizon will be bringing it back. Just gotta be patient 😁⚓️
Glad to hear you are excited for our videos Scratch! You rock and hope you had a good day of work! If all goes according to plan, we hope to fly some warbirds together possibly tomorrow. Thinking the Spitfire and BF109! 👍😁😎⚓️
@@TheRcSaylors well heck yea. I been doing all my flights inside on the simulator. Hey, a quick question I have the older turbo timber. Does the Draco really fly that much better than the 1.5 turbo timber. On the simulator it flies crazy good.
The Draco flies good, but you’d be buying it for it’s looks over performance in my opinion. The FMS Beaver or Turbo Timber both fly just as good but don’t cost as much. However the Draco has them both beat on looks for sure! 😎⚓️
@@TheRcSaylors yea, I have the turbo timber 1.5. I downloaded the eflight draco and it is worlds better on the simulator than the turbo timber but in real life you are letting me know that they handel the same. You should download the draco and fly it on the simator against the turbo timber. Horizon must want me to buy the draco with how solid it flies on they're simulator. Thanks man.
Oh it is real EZ to bust the wings off on inverted flights if you pull up hard while inverted on the simulator. I know cause I've tryed it all on it. It was very solid during slow flight.
have u ever seen a full scale a10 fly ? i saw the last one built take off from the republic plant on long island new york. he took off heading south then made a u turn over the southern state parkway & did a lowfly over the run way& and will never forget it. i also saw turbine powered a10 model fly at the chatfield state park in colorado that looked like the full scale warthog that put on a good show.
Among my top 5 favorite planes. I'd seen A10s in airshows a couple of times (excellent demos), but the most thrilling demo I ever had was on a flight shortly after 9/11...close unough to the day that we were still really on edge. I was anyway, being on an airplane after strolling past soldiers carrying M4's in my local airport prior to boarding! Midway through the flight, my eye was caught by motion; I looked out the window to catch four A10s in echelon formation, I'm guessing 2000ft below our plane. Within a moment, the lead plane rolled inverted, started popping flares, then pulled the stick to drop into the cloud layer below. The other three planes rolled, popped, and pulled in sucession. Only airshow I've seen from above!
Nate and Abby I thoroughly enjoyed that I love that huge jet maybe someday I'll get the experience and the money to get one God bless thanks to the big guy up above stay safe stay well and stay happy 🙏
I have both Brrrts. I mean A10’s and love them both. The umx is amazing due to the size and capability. The 64mm has so much power and fast just wish I had longer flight time.
Not a noob, but I clearly have a poor understanding of batteries... if the the larger plane suffers from short flight times, cant a higher capacity battery be used to extend it? The plane seems capable of hefting a bit more weight.
Hey!!! I really LOVE that plane... It IS tHe most cool!! I was interested in buy some RC toy, begin looking cars, then I see the planes, and when I have seen your video, I have decided yet. That IS tHe most cool plane I havent see in my life..
Honestly? I wouldn’t strongly recommend it. However, you’d stand a much higher chance for success with this than things that existed when I was a kid!! Having said that, though if you are learning to fly there are some other options I’d recommend just to learn the ropes on. 👍😁⚓️
I need a good recommendation for a COOL jet (maybe a prop plane) that’s easy to fly - including for say an 8 year old. Hopefully with a universal remote so another jet could be added later. Also say at two different price points: under $700ish and $400ish
you are missing one a10 :D I habe the freewing a10 with dual 80mm EDF but did the 90mm conversion with wemotec fans - that thing rips. When i tried to run that thing in my livingroom it threw stuff around all over the place xD
Probably not the only one asking this. Do you guys know how to replace the pins on the main gears. I have replaced the nose pin. But having issues and dont know what im doing wrong. Or is there a video or forum somewhere who explains the process. ThAnks!
You’ll likely think I am crazy, but on this specific craft I have not had a single landing gear issue. Hundreds of flights off asphalt and even more off grass and still going strong! 👍😁😎⚓️
I used to like Spektrum radios & own the DX6 which I bought 13 years ago for nearly $300. I abandoned the hobby for 12 years, but became interested again with the advent of flight controllers that allow for mission flying, terrain following & etc. To my disappointment it certainly appears that Spektrum has stayed away from being useful for use with flight controllers thru their receivers largely being unable to connect via serial communication to controllers. Sure there are the satellite receivers that with work arounds can be mated with a controller, but all other of their serial output receivers only can send telemetry. On the otherhand brands that did not exist to my knowledge 13 years ago such as Radiomaster, Radiolink... not only have receivers with serial called SBUS output for connection to controllers, but can also send PWM signals individually to servos if not using a controller. To top it off, these newcomers are a lot less expensive than Spektrum. Hence, now with Spektrum, contrary to all the hype when 2.4 Ghz spread spectrum radios initially were introduced, we have Spektrum gives one, you pay more & get much less.
Every since my back went out and took me out of work, I’ve been giving rc flying some serious thought! Just don’t know which is the more common since way to go. Obviously it can be an expensive hobby by the time you buy everything you have to have just to start flying. I love those A-10’s you showed! Any idea on what I should look at as a beginner?
Habu sts. Awesome first jet. Even works well a first bird! Bought mine in the rtf version so didn't need anything outside of the box to get up in the air!
Steve, I also have back problems. And many different planes, and carrying around just a plane, the transmitter, and batteries, is tough. As a beginner you should buy a trainer model first, about 1200 mm wingspan, and a decent transmitter like a NX8 or 10. The big money you will spend on the LiPo Accu's so it's important to start with a few similar models; most of them use 3S 2'200 mAh. What I do not recommend: Spektrum LiPo's because they are so smart they discharge themselves automatically after about 2 -3 days non -use. After so many years of flying, that was a nasty surprise to me, as I usually have a few accu's in my car besides a plane or two. Anyways, see this video of my Eflite T-28 Trojan, a pretty fast one: th-cam.com/video/us_E9pYCzGI/w-d-xo.html
I haven’t done that personally, but yes I believe so! There are some other really great benefits to the new NX6 radio too that we discuss in this video linked in my comment. Favor: if this helps in any way, please consider ordering your radio through our link! Thank you! th-cam.com/video/pIFICrUG8JY/w-d-xo.html
My only concern with the smaller one is the lack of any landing gear and having to do a belly landing on a rough surface like concrete or asphalt. I have plenty of grassy parks and other soft landing areas where I live in Florida to fly such a plane, but for those that live in areas with a lack of grass covered parks or school yards, it would not be such a great option to tear up the belly of this plane on landing.
batteries cost and charging is a huge price difference... both are nice quality... does the big one have 2 70mm fans? think little one has 2 30-40 mm fans ...thanks for sharing
TBH off the top of my head I don’t remember the mm size of each EDF. I thought the larger one was two 64mm but I may be wrong. It’s been so long since the larger A-10 was released I just forgot 😬 Should be listed on the website though where we have them linked 😉👍😁⚓️
There are quite a few transmitters that can work with that, but I’d recommend something from Spektrum for anything Eflite BNF. It’s very easy to connect and fly, mainly taking advantage of SAFE technology which is their version of stabilization.
I got the little one as my first EDF. You and others say that EDFs fly differently, so do you think it's representative of the experience? If I moved up to something bigger, like a Viper or Falcon, aside from speed and power, would I be surprised by a lot?
The little a10 is a real sweet heart, its much more tame far as takeoff and landing, very easy. I think the big a10 is real similar and a sweet heart as well. They are good jets because of the large wing, still very fast. That being said I do not have a viper but do have an avanti v3. The avanti its also a real sweet heart. I think its easyier to land than my zero fighter or other tail draggers. Some edfs are way more intense. Like my freewing f5 80mm hp, very high landing speed but so fun. If you can handle the little a10 with no issues. I think a viper or an avanti or a habu ss or a big a10 is the ticket. Another really sweet, step up bird, is eflites f15 64mm. Mine has been on a couple hundred problem free flights. Its super easy to land and once your used to it, you can high alpha at about 3 miles an hour with your nose way up in the air and i can hover mine. I did add servos and functional rudders to my f15, the f15 basically dosnt stall, either. I mean you can stall it but you have to try. Its so well behaived, eflites 70mm f16 thunderbird is another that almost wont stall, thier both really amazing jets. The f16 is sweet but a little more challenging, just a tiny bit , tho. Anyway best of luck.
@@mongoose4117 great response! I’m in the same boat, I am starting to get a bit bored with the Umx a10. Do I go to the eflight 64mm a10, eflight 70mm f16, or try a different brand? Any thoughts?
Hi RC Saylors! Hey do you think that they will bring back the A-10 64mm? I was really looking forward to getting that one but realized it was discontinued
If you are a beginner I would strongly encourage another plane and work your way up to either of these. If you want, I can make a recommendation based on your budget. Just leave a new comment on any video and I’d be happy to help! I ask that if we were more help than your hobby shop, you consider buying your plane through one of our links. It helps to support our free content and our family at no extra cost to you. Happy flying! 👍⚓️
New into the hobby get yourself a apprentice i have mine over a year now and have allot of flight times just get extra gear mounts and props and a screwdriver set it comes with a remote but if you looking to get more planes get a remote with a screen so it’s way easier to bind and pick what you want Also where have my country gone
I'm interested in buying this plane but I'm having trouble understanding which controller I need. I see there's a NX6 with telemetry data and one without. Is it worth getting the one with the telemetry data for the smaller A-10?
I'd say it depends on whether you like to hear an annoying robotic like voice every few seconds telling you what your battery voltage and runtime are. You can fly without telemetry but you would have to know how long your battery runs for and keep an eye on your watch or set up a timer to go off on your smartphone so that you can land the plane in time before the battery is completely dead and you run into what's known as a "dead stick" situation.
What’s the difference between the transmitter you have and the DX6e? What does about a hundred more give you? Happy New Year and blessings to your family.

@@Dog_Botherer the 64mm has two powerful edf motors that suck the battery dry no matter how big the battery is. 3-4 minutes is all you gonna get.
The big one is too darn fast for me even on the simulator. I love/hate jets. Battery suckers.
The only problem with the 64mm is that the nose gear is super weak and will break easily.
Seems that new little BAE Hawk may be the new inbetweener
what would you recommend for a brand new flyer? plane, remote, batteries, the whole kit a kaboodle? thx
Damn. You have made a great life bro!
Planes!!!!
Your doing it right. Learn to make the wind your friend and you can always fly. Learned that from some Canadin flyers. Great wisdom from them!

Do you a video of the FMS A10 warthog radio setup? Thank you
your videos are great never had rc planes before i may try the smaller jet to see if i like it
And? Any news for your plannings? Did you regret?
Do you need a transmitter for the remote control if you already don’t have one?
Where do they find any parts for the F4 Bone yard. Still airframe and parts old .
Hey!!! I really LOVE that plane... It IS tHe most cool!! I was interested in buy some RC toy, begin looking cars, then I see the planes, and when I have seen your video, I have decided yet.

id love to see a "state of the collection" video where you showcase the models you have, maybe talking about ones you dont any more and why
We intend to show our entire airplane collection on our channel fairly soon. Winter seems like a good time to share the hangar with everyone 👍😁😎⚓️
Now.. i’ve never flown a plane before. Never done any sort of simulation. Would the smaller a-10 (desert camo) be a good beginner, first plane to buy?

You’ll likely think I am crazy, but on this specific craft I have not had a single landing gear issue. Hundreds of flights off asphalt and even more off grass and still going strong! 👍😁😎⚓️
How long is the flying time on the small jet
Exactly How fast is the A10 30mm thunderbolt 2???
What transmitter did you use
I don’t understand why the discontinued the 64mm!! I was about to get one and then I see the “This Item Is Longer Available” I’m now depressed lol.
Just be patient my friend 😉👍😁😎⚓️
What's the link for the smaller one? Would it be available in Australia? Keen to get into this
Do they come with a remote controller
Awesome vid
Thank you very much!! 👍😁😎⚓️
Hi can anyone help me I’m trying to find a good RC plane that doesn’t break the bank any suggestions will help
How much are you looking for
I used to like Spektrum radios & own the DX6 which I bought 13 years ago for nearly $300. I abandoned the hobby for 12 years, but became interested again with the advent of flight controllers that allow for mission flying, terrain following & etc. To my disappointment it certainly appears that Spektrum has stayed away from being useful for use with flight controllers thru their receivers largely being unable to connect via serial communication to controllers. Sure there are the satellite receivers that with work arounds can be mated with a controller, but all other of their serial output receivers only can send telemetry.
On the otherhand brands that did not exist to my knowledge 13 years ago such as Radiomaster, Radiolink... not only have receivers with serial called SBUS output for connection to controllers, but can also send PWM signals individually to servos if not using a controller. To top it off, these newcomers are a lot less expensive than Spektrum. Hence, now with Spektrum, contrary to all the hype when 2.4 Ghz spread spectrum radios initially were introduced, we have Spektrum gives one, you pay more & get much less.
You guys upgraded your camera gear I see. Youre getting some pretty shallow depth of field. What system and lens combo did ya'll upgrade to?
Do you need a big flying area for the Big 6s A-10? Like a tiny soccer field?
I want to get into the hobby but tight on money and I really like the a10 so if I could have an suggestion that would be great
Every since my back went out and took me out of work, I’ve been giving rc flying some serious thought! Just don’t know which is the more common since way to go. Obviously it can be an expensive hobby by the time you buy everything you have to have just to start flying. I love those A-10’s you showed! Any idea on what I should look at as a beginner?
Habu sts. Awesome first jet. Even works well a first bird! Bought mine in the rtf version so didn't need anything outside of the box to get up in the air!
Depends what your budget is Steve, but this video is an amazing place to start - th-cam.com/video/jspvyJ3WMLo/w-d-xo.html
Try one of the eachine mini Warbirds, so easy and so much fun to fly, and because they are so cheap/indestructible there is no fear/worry of crashing,
@@ptgfox3082 thanks, I’ll check them out!
Steve, I also have back problems. And many different planes, and carrying around just a plane, the transmitter, and batteries, is tough. As a beginner you should buy a trainer model first, about 1200 mm wingspan, and a decent transmitter like a NX8 or 10. The big money you will spend on the LiPo Accu's so it's important to start with a few similar models; most of them use 3S 2'200 mAh. What I do not recommend: Spektrum LiPo's because they are so smart they discharge themselves automatically after about 2 -3 days non -use. After so many years of flying, that was a nasty surprise to me, as I usually have a few accu's in my car besides a plane or two. Anyways, see this video of my Eflite T-28 Trojan, a pretty fast one: th-cam.com/video/us_E9pYCzGI/w-d-xo.html
How can the big A-10 work with just a 6 channel radio? 4 channels for control + flaps + gear + SAFE?
The new NX6 actually has seven channels 👍😁 A bonus seventh just for SAFE 😎⚓️
@@TheRcSaylors Sounds like I need to upgrade my DX6! Can I just put the sd card into the new NX6 and have all my models load up?
I haven’t done that personally, but yes I believe so! There are some other really great benefits to the new NX6 radio too that we discuss in this video linked in my comment. Favor: if this helps in any way, please consider ordering your radio through our link! Thank you!

With flaps down will it go as slow as the viper?
Not quite but it still slows down A LOT! 👍😁😎⚓️
where can i get the small one
You guys are som much more fun than the usual, serious, boring RC reviewers.
My only concern with the smaller one is the lack of any landing gear and having to do a belly landing on a rough surface like concrete or asphalt. I have plenty of grassy parks and other soft landing areas where I live in Florida to fly such a plane, but for those that live in areas with a lack of grass covered parks or school yards, it would not be such a great option to tear up the belly of this plane on landing.
There's plenty A10 64mm left for sale in the UK.
Glad to hear that my friend! Usually our friends in the UK get the short end of the stick with Horizon, but now you have one up on us 👍😁😎⚓️
Would the small A-10 be a good beginner plane?
batteries cost and charging is a huge price difference... both are nice quality... does the big one have 2 70mm fans? think little one has 2 30-40 mm fans ...thanks for sharing
TBH off the top of my head I don’t remember the mm size of each EDF. I thought the larger one was two 64mm but I may be wrong. It’s been so long since the larger A-10 was released I just forgot 😬 Should be listed on the website though where we have them linked 😉👍😁⚓️
I’m buying an E-flite A-10 Thunderbolt II Twin 64mm EDF BNF 😊 what transmitter will I need ?
There are quite a few transmitters that can work with that, but I’d recommend something from Spektrum for anything Eflite BNF. It’s very easy to connect and fly, mainly taking advantage of SAFE technology which is their version of stabilization.
Hey how far range do these got with a dx8? What’s the limit on the bigger a-10?
Much further than you can see Line of Sight 👍😁😎😁
I bought small foam f22 raptor and loved it and it only cost me
I got the little one as my first EDF. You and others say that EDFs fly differently, so do you think it's representative of the experience? If I moved up to something bigger, like a Viper or Falcon, aside from speed and power, would I be surprised by a lot?
The little a10 is a real sweet heart, its much more tame far as takeoff and landing, very easy. I think the big a10 is real similar and a sweet heart as well. They are good jets because of the large wing, still very fast. That being said I do not have a viper but do have an avanti v3. The avanti its also a real sweet heart. I think its easyier to land than my zero fighter or other tail draggers. Some edfs are way more intense. Like my freewing f5 80mm hp, very high landing speed but so fun. If you can handle the little a10 with no issues. I think a viper or an avanti or a habu ss or a big a10 is the ticket. Another really sweet, step up bird, is eflites f15 64mm. Mine has been on a couple hundred problem free flights. Its super easy to land and once your used to it, you can high alpha at about 3 miles an hour with your nose way up in the air and i can hover mine. I did add servos and functional rudders to my f15, the f15 basically dosnt stall, either. I mean you can stall it but you have to try. Its so well behaived, eflites 70mm f16 thunderbird is another that almost wont stall, thier both really amazing jets. The f16 is sweet but a little more challenging, just a tiny bit , tho. Anyway best of luck.
@@mongoose4117 great response! I’m in the same boat, I am starting to get a bit bored with the Umx a10. Do I go to the eflight 64mm a10, eflight 70mm f16, or try a different brand? Any thoughts?
Hi RC Saylors! Hey do you think that they will bring back the A-10 64mm? I was really looking forward to getting that one but realized it was discontinued
I would suggest to be patient and let’s hope Horizon does what is best for everyone 😉👍😁😎⚓️
I'm getting this plane. I'm starting to fly rc jets and it's going good
Just wondering how much construction is involved with the bigger of the two?
Took me about 20 minutes to assemble 👍😁😎⚓️
@@TheRcSaylors thanks mate 👍
I was at our hobby store and looked at both of these jets! I need 1 of them but I'm a beginner, any recommendations?
If you are a beginner I would strongly encourage another plane and work your way up to either of these. If you want, I can make a recommendation based on your budget. Just leave a new comment on any video and I’d be happy to help! I ask that if we were more help than your hobby shop, you consider buying your plane through one of our links. It helps to support our free content and our family at no extra cost to you. Happy flying! 👍⚓️
How they do that?
Do what?
New into the hobby get yourself a apprentice i have mine over a year now and have allot of flight times just get extra gear mounts and props and a screwdriver set it comes with a remote but if you looking to get more planes get a remote with a screen so it’s way easier to bind and pick what you want
Also where have my country gone
I'm interested in buying this plane but I'm having trouble understanding which controller I need. I see there's a NX6 with telemetry data and one without. Is it worth getting the one with the telemetry data for the smaller A-10?
I'd say it depends on whether you like to hear an annoying robotic like voice every few seconds telling you what your battery voltage and runtime are. You can fly without telemetry but you would have to know how long your battery runs for and keep an eye on your watch or set up a timer to go off on your smartphone so that you can land the plane in time before the battery is completely dead and you run into what's known as a "dead stick" situation.
@@antoniomontana9430 Thanks, I appreciate the info!
What’s the difference between the transmitter you have and the DX6e? What does about a hundred more give you? Happy New Year and blessings to your family.
The biggest difference is the ability to connect to your Wi-Fi for updates and airplane downloads, and a bonus 7th channel for SAFE 👍😁😎⚓️
That big one would be so cool to throw an FPV cam on
cool I love these videos
Awesome Chris! Thanks a lot for tuning in and Happy Flying 👍😁😎⚓️
Kinda early squad where you guys at happy flying all 😊😊😊😎😎😎😎⚓️⚓️⚓️⚓️⚓️⚓️
Looks like a blast to fly. Just curious, which EFD do you like flying more, the Viper 90mm, or this A-10 Thunderbolt II Twin 64mm?
What is this airplane called?
It would be really cool if it cool drop flares after a strafing run.
could u give me some rc plane recomendations
Which RC plane gives the best flight time?
Between the two of these? The smaller one. Or do you just mean in general?
Where can i buy the cheaper version?
Thanks!
@6000 Adventurers
wait you have to buy a controller in order to fly the plane? idk about that
