RC Swap meets are fun to go to. Find good prices , fine rare items and sometimes can get a lower price if you negotiate. Not all the time i can fork out money for a new one
I picked up an old Eflite Bae Hawk just like yours, at a swap meet for $75 a couple of years ago. That is a fiberglass plane and I fly it with a 5s 2200 lipo. 3-4s doesn’t have enough power to lift that plane. One of my favorites in my collection.
Bro, you want MIP hex drivers. You will never strip another Allen head ever again. They are expensive but the best. They are designed for RC racers. If you ask anyone in the hobby they will say they are the best. Pick up the drivers and the bits for your cordless driver. Best investment.
Damn I wish we had swapmeets like those ones you posted. I would probably be renting another storage unit for a hanger. As for the EDF....... The habu 3-4 cell with 3200 kv was a 70 mm . Makes good power .
Jay, I suggest the twelve bladed 70mm from Freewing would be my pick for your “New to you” BaE Hawk balsa model you just picked up. The twelve bladed EDF have a great sound.
Can't wait. Swap Meet season is starting up around Virginia as well, and I'm finding all the events that are close enough to visit. Our club, the Newport News Park Radio Control Club is getting ready for our annual swap meet at the end of February, and for the first year even I bought a table. :D Can't wait to see if I can find something good out there!!
Jay, { im the guy that lives close by, Yaphank} My dad has one of the original profile planes that he built in the early 90's, I forget who made it, but its got an MVVS 40 on it, with a tuned pipe, its an absolute screamer.... He used to fly it at the Sunken Meadow RC show his club used to do.... But yeah, Dad is getting up in his years and doesn't really fly anymore so I'll keep u in mind when he finally starts parting with his stuff.... I wish some of his building skills rubbed off on me but ....nope, my parents basement is a literal swap meet in itself, mostly gasser balsa models, few electric too.... Rob
Hey man, you should come to the local field one day with pops just to hang. It's electric only but right here in Calverton. Might put a smile on his face and knock some hobby interest into you ! 😂
@@Jays_rcgarage hey i love this chanel and think you are the coolest rc influencer ever. Do you happen to have any used planes that you don't use i would love to get deeper into this hobby.
oh wow- a 3s EDF? might have to get me one of those. I live About 2 hours from perry, GA which i read from feb. 28 to march 1st is the largest swap meet in the U.S. Probably check that out!
Hey Jay. If you want to check out a huge swap meet there are TH-cam videos on the Perry swap meet at the Perry Georgia fairgrounds. We average 1000 tables every year. My club, Georgia Aircraft Modelers Association sponsors the show every year usually the last weekend February/first weekend in March. This year it is Friday, 28 Feb and Saturday 1 March.
I saw that red white and blue King Kobra built on stage ❤ Wish I had another one of those! you should have picked it up and Converted it to electric Jay! It’s a phenomenal plane.
Jay, I need to get rid of a bunch of my stuff. I always wanted it to go to kids to get them into the hobby but life got in the way. I could use your help thinning the crop. I’m in melville
@ the Toledo show is one of the biggest in the U.S. I want to say they had like 300 tables last year but don’t quote me on that. It’s a the biggest swap around and they have vendors/companies from all over come and set up booths as well. It’s a two day event
I miss the WRAM show that was a banger. That hawk is very nice looking but be careful they tip stall, keep it level on approach. I saw a Habu 2 kit on the floor, those are desirable.
I have a EF 48" Edge 540. Need to get it out more.. Waiting for him to get back to me with more info on it. Price is the determining factor. Not over paying. I want something 120cc or bigger!
I'll buy that extra canopy from you for that old E flight. I've been looking for one but unable to find it. Let me know if you posted on rc groups or something. Happy flying!
The only "allen keys" you need to even consider are the MIP hex drivers. MIP are RC hobbyists themselves and make the absolute best quality hex drivers you can buy. They are a little expensive, but combine them with the DeWalt gyroscoppically controlled driver and stripped screws are a thing of the past.
@@adamsenig5281 Cause as I’ve very recently learned, they take a lot of work. You also have to by a lot of gear like a starter, after run oil, a pump and a glow starter. Plus fuel that is around $40 bucks a gallon depending on the percent of nitro. In other words it gets very expensive, very fast and it takes a lot of maintenance, luckily some older gentleman at the club i go to have been helping me get started, once you do get everything in order, they are a blast to fly. Jay, if you can do turbines, surely you could do nitro, you should try them! You can also get them for great prices in great condition since “gas” is the new style…
We used to call them Die-Numb (Dynam) lol. Some of the jankiest models ever made. Miss going to the rc swap meets. I used to have that Prime Jet Pro from HK, flies great. Def worth 10 bucks..
Each March it is held annually at the Lebanon Valley Exposition Center and Fairgrounds in Lebanon, PA. (only 20 minutes East of Hershey, PA.) March 8, 2025
I usually only wear a hat when im flying to keep the sun out of my eyes lol or early morning before I shower since my hair is crazy 😂 Got my own stuff coming out soon..
Thats when I graduated high school LOL. 70mm habu fan I think would be good on 4s. Someone else commented that. Makes sense because this fan is a 5 blade old school EDF
@Jays_rcgarage Yes, I really like it, but I'm having trouble finding one. They have all the parts at Horzion Hobby. Discontinued since 2019, i believe. Love to see yours. Thanks for responding so fast!
I know that. But maybe it's hard to see. The one is bent worse. It has epoxy on it so it deff was a crash. It may fly with some trim but Id like to get it even with the other one.
I’m sure I’ll do something like that in the future. But right now it’s just a random comment picker tool. Check my last member only short. You’ll see how it was picked

Love my Mondays more when Jay posts a long-form video. It's that New Yawk accent that makes this channel, lol.

You the man. Ordering them now!
MiP drivers are the Best, try to get an assortment of ball ended drivers.
Heli pilots swear by MIP drivers. You will NOT regret these tools.

Go with a mip best tools period for rc cars and planes
2:58 DONT SMOKE.

I got a avanti 70mm and two 6s 4000 for 115$ haha

These vlog videos are great! I didn’t know Eflite used to sell balsa like that
Dude, I had no idea either lol. You should come hang for the maiden. Not sure I can let you fly this one though LOL!
@ yeah man, hahah yeah i dont think that has safe
I will become a member if I have a chance of getting that plane.😂😂🎉🎉

Heard great things about that show. Issue for me is I will 1000% want to buy something.. and that drive home is 15 hours lol NO CHANCE
Yes sir. For our swap meet there is no way you can walk three huge buildings full of anything airplane related you can think of and not buy something.
I saw that red white and blue King Kobra built on stage ❤ Wish I had another one of those! you should have picked it up and Converted it to electric Jay! It’s a phenomenal plane.
So many projects at the moment! Thats my issue. I want them all but have to be realistic lol!
Now that’s what we’re talking about keep going Jason!
Thanks for the tip and the link to find RC swap meets!
Jay, I need to get rid of a bunch of my stuff. I always wanted it to go to kids to get them into the hobby but life got in the way. I could use your help thinning the crop. I’m in melville
Dude im happy to try and help. I deff think you should sell the stuff. Email me jaysrcgarage@gmail.com .. can't post my number on TH-cam 😂
The Lebanon swap meet is insane
Great to see swaps! I’m headed to one Sunday here in good ol Ohio. Would love to see you guys for the Giant Toledo show !
Good luck this weekend !! What’s the Toledo show??
@ the Toledo show is one of the biggest in the U.S. I want to say they had like 300 tables last year but don’t quote me on that. It’s a the biggest swap around and they have vendors/companies from all over come and set up booths as well. It’s a two day event
Nice find balsa or fiber edf’s are a pain to find
I miss the WRAM show that was a banger. That hawk is very nice looking but be careful they tip stall, keep it level on approach.
I saw a Habu 2 kit on the floor, those are desirable.
We were looking at it! I had one and gave it to a kid 2 years ago
Sin dudas un muy buen vídeo.
Lo disfruté muchísimo.
Saludos desde Cuba 🇨🇺
Upgrade of course. Great video
I still have my Eflite Hawk. Converted it to a pusher prop. It’s still in maintenance.
Gonna be one in Jersey on Feb 8th. Cape may county WASP will be there!
That BAE hawk is siiiiickkkkk🔥
🔥🔥🔥💪🏼
Wish I could be there. The Ercoupe caught my eye.
You'll be fine upgrading that to a 70mm 6s!
You just like seeing my stuff explode..
Get that Slick 580. In my opinion, anything made by extreme flight is top notch in quality and performance
I have a EF 48" Edge 540. Need to get it out more.. Waiting for him to get back to me with more info on it. Price is the determining factor. Not over paying. I want something 120cc or bigger!
I love that profile plane too. I'm very jealous.
Was looking for a gas profile for years. SUPER HAPPY I finally got one!
Dude, I would have snagged that multiplex. Use team associated loctite it holds strong, and you won't have to crank down your bolts.
Vintage Eflight BaE Hawk, awesome…. Balsa jets fly better than the foam ones for sure.
You scored on those planes you mentioned early in video.
Aaaghh. Sweet, I would have bought that p47 up on the stage. 😋
APC props over anything! That’s a Eflite BAE Hawk.. they fly…but take a lot of power and 3s is not enough. Needs 4s 3200mAh.
NAAAA! I like wood. Way lighter. Badass makes nice ones. I do want to try it the way it is. But ill probably upgrade it before I give it to someone.
@ a wood prop would come apart in 2 seconds with what I do lol APC for the win!
APC props are crap, get yourself a Xoar wood prop, you will thank me later.
@ no thanks… no wood pro will survive what I do.
Missed a swap meet last week, should have gone, good vid!
Always go! Even if I have no cash. It gives me the feeling I use to get as a kid walking into KB Toys lol
That old Freewing F-18 was way overpriced. You made the right choice
Thrust Vector on a F18 would have been so fun though 😞
Buy that Slick man you will not be disappointed!
It’s a 30cc DA. I really want something bigger. We’ll see what price point he comes in at
I'll buy that extra canopy from you for that old E flight. I've been looking for one but unable to find it. Let me know if you posted on rc groups or something. Happy flying!
The new one I need. The one thats on it is broken and doesn't stay on

Hi I just saw you on my for you page your good😊
The Aerobat is sweet. If you get tired of it and you are able to make it RTF. If yes drop me a line
I actually no longer own that. I traded my friend for a UMX B-17.. Still have that one!
Got a Rascal 40 in mint condition as a bnf for only $125. It’s my first nitro and runs great! Awesome deal
I envy you. I can’t do the nitro planes!! I do want a nitro car though ! Nice price 🤝
Why can't you do nitro planes?

MIP, you’ll see the difference instantly in the tools.
i love your vids!
Thank you !!!
Cool jet man..
fun fun, hey Jay sell me that canopy for the little BAE would ya?! I'll meet you @ Lebanon
I need the spare one.. the one on it is broken. If it was fine I really would just give it to you !
@@Jays_rcgarage totally cool! looking forward to the video....got one myself but not put her up yet :)
We used to call them Die-Numb (Dynam) lol. Some of the jankiest models ever made. Miss going to the rc swap meets. I used to have that Prime Jet Pro from HK, flies great. Def worth 10 bucks..
Btw, think you should upgrade the EDF
I will for sure. But I have to try it the way it is first
Can you do video on the p-39 by motionrc
MIP is the find standard. But them once and never buy again. The best
I caught that comment on apc! All I’ve been running is apc, what you recommend that’s better?
Try “badass” wood props. WAY lighter and better balanced. Xoar is good too if you prefer the typical wood look.
@ I’ll give em a shot, appreciate it man!
Let’s go warichg this in school
Put it on the smart board 🔑
Where is the stop meet in Pennsylvania
Lebanon!
Each March it is held annually at the Lebanon Valley Exposition Center and Fairgrounds in Lebanon, PA. (only 20 minutes East of Hershey, PA.) March 8, 2025
What happened to the chocolate chip pancakes?!?! 😏
We need to come up with a new name for your channel. Standby...
Where’s the Happy Dad hat!?
I usually only wear a hat when im flying to keep the sun out of my eyes lol or early morning before I shower since my hair is crazy 😂 Got my own stuff coming out soon..
I pretty sure a 3s 2200mah is to small for that jet. I just looked up specs, came out in 2009 , used a 69mm edf , can use a 3 or 4s 3300mah lipo.
Thats when I graduated high school LOL. 70mm habu fan I think would be good on 4s. Someone else commented that. Makes sense because this fan is a 5 blade old school EDF
Hey man just saw you dont like APC props. How so and do you have another brand in mind?
I just think they are heavy. I prefer wood props!
Jay, if you see a BNF UMX Gee Bee R2 for a good price and condition. I am looking for one. I can pay you for the plane & shipping! Thanks
Dude, I have one !!! lol it’s deff not in good condition. I’ll make a short soon on it
@Jays_rcgarage Yes, I really like it, but I'm having trouble finding one. They have all the parts at Horzion Hobby. Discontinued since 2019, i believe. Love to see yours. Thanks for responding so fast!
I also got one I never fly
Grasias amigou!
Skip to 4:33 and the swap meet starts
great video at 0:00 already
Your car is very colorfull compared
To mine
I picked this interior 😂 customer order
Hi buddy. I don´t get your email. I have GMX is that the problem?
the elevators are supposed to be bent downwards no need to be fixed save you a little bit of time
I know that. But maybe it's hard to see. The one is bent worse. It has epoxy on it so it deff was a crash. It may fly with some trim but Id like to get it even with the other one.
I have a brand new cub that my father built if your interested
Do you select the winner by who leaves the loveliest comment or is it random? 😂🙋♂️
I’m sure I’ll do something like that in the future. But right now it’s just a random comment picker tool. Check my last member only short. You’ll see how it was picked
th-cam.com/video/JSR24ag1tl4/w-d-xo.html APC props!
Day 10 of asking for a free rc plane
What kind of membership do I need to be eligible for aircraft?
