Canards. The little wings are canards.
Knards, canards..
Dorsal fins!!? Nate, those are canards. On the real one they act as control surfaces, and move up and down like elevators. FMS makes an 80mm version of this plane and the canards are functional on it. I have this 64mm version and love it!!! My first jet. I'm a terrible rc pilot and I fly this and really enjoy it. I would highly recommend it as a first jet to anyone.
Very cool!! Yeah, total brain fart for sure. I just forgot, but thank you!! Canards!! Why did I think Dorsal Fins!?!? Lol 😅 I thought they moved on the real thing though, so at least I got that right!! Haha 👍😎⚓️
Can I PLEASE make a recommendation;
First, switch your radio to a RadioMaster with ELRS system.
Second, use telemetry on everything RC that uses a battery.
You can use the radio to call out your battery voltage at any specific time or amount. At the very least, setup a flight timer on the radio with audible readouts.
There are so many different things you are missing (and could be great content for your followers) that makes the RC hobby safer and more enjoyable!
Hit me up if you need some help and we can talk via email/voice or not. Love your reviews, but there is always more to learn and teach!!
Happy flying my friend.
Keep including the aerial chase-cam footage for planes :-)
edit: ohh, they're called 'canards'
That design is so near and dear. Absolutely love that plane.
Thanks Saylor's!
Abby and Nate y'all rock! Yes they are canards but I seen where everyone else done beat me to it😂. Peace
Use a cheap voltage alarm that plugs into the balance lead. They work but not on a gen 2 battery. Thanks guys we all get excited and fly to long because it's so darn fun.
I really should have done that!! But you are right, not on Gen2 😕 Thanks for watching!! 👍😎💯⚓️
That final landing was awesome! Those little wings in front of the main wings are called "canards", and are an old feature of airplanes. The first powered flight plane, the Wright Flyer, had a canard. Many jets have canards, and aircraft designed by the famous Burt Rutan. The Rafale was the main competitor to the F-35 to be Canada's next main-line jet fighter. The Rafale is a 4.5 generation fighter jet, while the F-35 is a 5th generation jet. In the competition between the two, many supported the Rafale because it has two engines, something that is considered important for planes flying across the vast areas of Canada, the 2nd largest country in the world. But lobbying from the US, and the stealth capabilities of the F-35 eventually won the competition, and will be Canada's next fighter jet, replacing the CF-18.
Canard.
They're called canards
You two are really encouraging me to get something to fly haha
I promise, it’s worth it! You’ll never look back!! 👍💯😎⚓️
That front gear is shock absorbing?!?!? How come they didn't make that a huge selling point! I think imma get one next paycheck!! This is why I watch you guys, you look at stuff others don't 😎😎😎😎
Abby those little wings in front of the main, I think they are called canards
Late squad today happy flying all 😊😊😊😊⚓️⚓️⚓️⚓️
That EDF sounds amazing!
She does need LEDs though.
LEDs would be so nice on this, but you can’t beat $180 on this thing! Oh yeah! 👍😎💯⚓️
Those wings at the nose is called canards.
Ah that’s right!! Why did I think dorsal fins!? 🤔😅👍⚓️
@@TheRcSaylors I have no idea, dorsal fins are placed on the back.. 😉
Nice flying, Nate! This jet looks awesome!
Thanks a lot my friend!! 👍💯😎⚓️
I want one!
I Believe this is something big. We are going to see it spread. Good Job Luis! You are on top of this one.
Love your videos...love my tactic radios as well...
I recently had a range mishap with my Tactic! First one that I can even remember. Lost a really good plane because of it too. Tossing that RX, but if it happens again I may have to let it go 😢😢😢 Love Tactic!! ❤️⚓️
Great video I used to have an fms rafale 64mm over a decade ago and to be fair this airframe is touchy. Needs speed to stay in the air or else it drops like a stone. Also notorious for the bounce the air speed control is critical for smooth landing
Fun video. Thanks Saylors!
Thanks!! 🙏👍😎💯⚓️
But Nathan, we know how long we can fly on our maidens. Because we have you to fly too long on a maiden for us. Lol. Thanks for all you guys do!
You get a double thumbs up! ';-)
Love your reviews.
Thank you.
🇬🇧.
That’s awesome of you to say, thank you! Have a great weekend! 👍💯🙏😎⚓️
Beautiful plane , so so easy to lose track of battery life , especially without radio alarm / reminder . God Bless you all !
I don't know if everyone can appreciate how much more difficult a maiden flight (or any other flight, really) is, while on camera. It's like everything is fighting you, as soon as that record button is pressed sometimes.
Great job. Great recovery. You can bend back gear. That Smart battery might be a little chubbier. But, hey. Im sure you have plenty more.
Thanks for the review, guys. You got to fly an awesome plane. 👍
Nate dude NEVER BEND THE GEAR BACK in the airframe!!! Remove the gear and use plyers to grasp the rods and straighten them out. If you do this in the foam you will damage the foam in the opposite direction as well and you are doing more damage and you will still not get the gear rod straight. Remove the gear and straighten it out. Put it back and or fix the gear mounts in the foam then replace the gear.
You did just fine, it was great flight. Just gotta remember how much battery life you have. Aloha brother, love the show.
I’m pretty sure the “dorsal fins” are called canards 🤓
Ha, you are totally right!! I have never been great with names, or names of things 😬😅💯⚓️
It always amazes me how these electric planes can sound so good 🙂
Great heads up. I had my wires hanging inside. lol . Had to glue them to the side . No way to get back up .
Nate and Abby I've heard really great things about that jet. I need to try one! By the way, the extra horizontals are called Canards. I agree it would be nice if they worked, but it seems like its very capable even without them. You two have a lot of fun together, that is nice to see. Great job on the maiden! I think if we try one I'll hand launch it with the gear off.
Wow love
Great video
Great vid
Thank you very much! 👍😎 Hope you’re having an awesome week! 💯⚓️
I find this Rafale flies well and is very stable in high alpha. Moving the battery back an inch or so i.e only held by the rearward strap, allows more pitch authority for rotations during takeoff. However, too much nose up and the plane hasn't got enough power to climb out of alpha lock 😊
...WOW.... love y'all's video of rhe Rafale 64 mm....i cant afford the 80 mm Rafale but hope to purchase the 64mm Rafale next month (April 2024) thru your link....
Excellent flying 😎👍 My favorite 64mm, because of the rudder. Maybe one day retracts 😉 Added a light and replaced the Reflex with an AR631.
The Reflex is good, but I can see why you did that. Yeah rudder makes a big difference, and all those scale details are nice too!! Would love to see how you ran your lights!! 👍💯⚓️
@TheRcSaylors I added an LED in the fuselage in front of the front landing gear.
I'm gone pick this up this is so cool🙂
Awesome!! Happy Flying!! 👍💯😎⚓️
Dorsal fins? You Crack me up brother!!😂
dorsal fin is kind of the one in front of vertical stab but what he is talking is canard or duck planes as some call it. Maybe other names but thats what I know them as.
Yep canards, wonder if it's possible to make them active. Even if there's enough room for one servo you could activate them for elevators. Did that on a scratch built Eurofighter awhile back. It's like having thrust vectoring exhaust
I love you two relationship with each other. Its always his fault.
Any successful marriage knows the secret to happiness!! 👍😂❤️💯⚓️
Good price Love the jet sound
Double Yes!! 👍💯😎⚓️
The fins on the front are called Canards, they act as assist elevators. that is just because some European jets don't use tail stabilizers, so the canards add that much more stability and maneuverability.
Cool bird
The Rafale is one of the sexiest planes I've seen. Usually I'm not wild about the foreign designs.
Viva La France, Viva La Rafale. Flies well, since it's a single seater All flight errors ARE pilot errors. You ALWAY'S ( git ) giddy enthusiastic on maiden's Nate.😃😃. Long time back I remember seeing a similar looking plane all Yellow, honestly think this one would to. Definitely be able to see it. Great videoing Abby.⚓️⚓️👍🧡💛💚👍😃😃👍⚓️⚓️.
This jet is amazing at high alpha. The landing gear suck but it's a great plane at that price point.
Are we ever gonna get a hanger tour? Great video as always
Lawn Dart !😮
Look identical to the eurofighter typhoon.
Cool! Thanks for watching! 👍💯😎⚓️
I like this channel because the hosts are not like some other channels that have cropped up in the last year or two with these prima-donna phoneys that will say anything to increase their channel views, they know it all, their way is the best way of course, etc, etc.
FMS Rafale is a bit of a fail IMO. Underpowered, short battery life, weak landing gear, It does look cool though. Some folks like to fly around high-alpha slow all day which this thing is just okay at out of the box - it can bet into alpha lock easily and hasn't the power to escape so don't go to far back with CG.
Personally, I think FMS should make all of these 64mm planes into hi-performance versions. 6S power, sturdier landing gear, maybe a better way to grab it if people want to hand launch. An inrunner motor would be more efficient. I went ahead and changed power system in one of these to 6S inrunner 64mm and 70 amp esc. Now it is the aircraft it should have been from the start, faster, better vertical performance by far, no hi alpha lock, just power out of it, better battery life also. Simply a better model all around.
Canards to bad they didn't make them functional as well
They are called canards.
look up the tiger meet, thats where the stripes come from
To bad there are no retracts, such a beautiful jet.
wow we all have to have a crash but with your experience it happens great review RCSailors keep them coming.
It can happen to literally anyone! All kinds of factors in the hobby, including my own! Never get discouraged 👍💯😎❤️⚓️
So sick
👍😎💯⚓️
Cool flight, sorry for the crash...were you thinking of trying high alpha fly? Quite many pilots like to have it in high alpha 😛
By the for EDF, especially on maiden flight .. usually only clock it at 3 minutes max .. only after a few flights then to increased on per 30 minutes (as EDF 30 minutes means a lot of different) to find a perfect timing ... Happy Flying
That would be fun! Yes, for a maiden I should have stuck to 3 minutes. Have a nice weekend! 👍💯😎⚓️
Nice video! Hello can somebody pls say to me what is the diameter of this tail nozzle from the Rafale 64mm EDF and how long is its width? Thx!
would you say this is a good second jet?
Esc size?number of Fan finns? Thanks
I don’t recommend this plane if you live at higher altitude.
I’m in Colorado and this thing BaReLy gets off the ground.. it has to be full throttle 100% of the time just to keep it in the air. I tried a 50 amp esc and higher KV motor with very little improvement.
How about a hand launch?
I absolutely could, yes 👍💯 This was a solid talking point in this video 😉 Thanks for watching! ❤️⚓️
How can I buy this item
Interesting : "FMS RAFALE 64 mm Art View"
You guys are the best keep up the great content
Thank you So Much!! 🙏👍❤️💯⚓️
@@TheRcSaylors anytime I enjoy all your videos
WHY have FMS not a importer in the EU .. so we can have nice planes and mainly spareparts !! Or do I search on the wrong sites ??
Just noticed it doesn’t have retracts, what a bummer, probably why it’s in that affordable price range
Yes, absolutely 👍💯 Hey, retails $199 and $180 with our coupon code really isn’t bad! Comes with that flight stabilization too! 😎⚓️
disappointed no retracts... :(
Agreed, but $180 with our coupon code!! Woot!! 👍😎💯⚓️
@@TheRcSaylors too bad it isn’t retracts-ready… so as an option they could be installed!
This video has it ALL!! COOL looking edf jet that when I saw the tiger stripes I thought of the Cincinnati Bengals...A GREAT maiden flight (until it wasn't)...SUPER drone chasing AND additional footage!! WOW, thanks Saylors for pulling this off on the fly (pun intended)!!! 💟👍😘
"Dorsal fins" LMFAO
I do make mistakes! 😅⚓️
@@TheRcSaylors lol well I for one am ABOSOLUTELY perfect and have never made one of those 🤣
The jokes on me. I looked it up before checking that so many people had already answered the question.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In aeronautics, a canard is a wing configuration in which a small forewing or foreplane is placed forward of the main wing of a fixed-wing aircraft or a weapon. The term "canard" may be used to describe the aircraft itself, the wing configuration, or the foreplane.
Can it be hand launched?
I’d say yes absolutely but with my track record, I probably shouldn’t try, lol!! If I took off all of the missiles etc.. I’d definitely give it a shot 👍💯😎⚓️
Dorsel fin lol its a flying fish😂 love your channel sweet plane .
Edf's chew up the electrons
Canards
Hi RC Saylors Nate and Abby, Popeye 🐕👋.
Wow very nice RC jet. Realistic looking and fast.
Have a great week everyone and thank you so very much. God bless you all everyday 🙏
Il volerai. Plus. Longtemps. Sans. Les. Misilles.
Nate , you may need to watch other reviews. I know it’s hard to fit in everything with family time and so on. But what I’m saying is , reviews show this little bird eats batteries for breakfast. 3&1/2 min max. If you push for 4 with the Reflex V2 in there too with all that gear. Yea , you might have destroyed that lipo?
I need to check the health of the battery tonight. Hoping it’s still alive and well!! I hear ya, but many times when I do that it “taints” my true opinion and impressions. But in this case it could have been very handy 👍😎💯⚓️
@@TheRcSaylorsNate I truly believe that about “if” you watch others reviews it may taint yours. Good point. Definitely yank that FMS stabilizer out and put a AS3X in it . Less weight, then put a SMC racing pack in it. High voltage LI HV 4s 2800 mAH I bet she’d really rip then 😊
Hopefully FMS will send you the big brother of this little guy. I may buy it , still thinking it over. It eats batteries quickly
Lol :-)
:-)
ouch.. totally out of control
How can you not know what a Canard is? LOL.
I guess its epo foam?
I cant do the fixed landing gear. It ruins everything. Retracts or nothing. Retracts are not a massive change to the budget. And not including them for how cheap they can be bought, is honestly a terrible excuse.
Weight is the problem
Seriously 5 mins seems to long for maiden to me ..3.5 mins seems right...i used to fly a long of 50mm to 70mm edfs..they are gas hogs..
It's a nice plane however it's nowhere near close to 180 dollars it's 290 $ every single piece of decoration is plus for 200 you only get a shapeless barely working plane not even cockpit or any decor wing on it do you actually want to mislead your viewers or don't care to read the actual prices on the page you linked????
he didnt mislead.. its $200. who knows where you got $290 from LOL and it comes with the decorations for $200..
@@creepinrc Decoration???? since when a cockpit on a plane is decoration? or the canards????
there is a joke about American pilots, none can really fly they are always learning to fly as they all need stabilisers .
When pilots finally learn to fly they can take off the stabilisers and are called fin and rudder, tail plane and elevator
Haha, I’ve never really heard that before but sounds like it’s mostly in good humor! Nothing wrong with that 😅👍💯❤️⚓️
@@TheRcSaylors yes it is a British airforce joke, not made in malace but it could be in certain situations
This plane flies like a pig. Heavy, underpowered 4s. Its EDF created around 900gram thrust(in plane) while plane itself is 1150gram w/o battery. You have to maintain 100% throttle all the time. flies like a pig
SOUNDS LIKE A SKILL ISSUE BECAUSE HE FLEW IT FINE
... agree that it flew great and other videos around TH-cam show it flying dine on 4S 2200.....
@@CyberGaming25 yeah hmm sounds like,, you sounds like a nerd.
@@kenflyergc if so, alien will be true right? Since there are lots of alien video on youtube.
Why so tough or hard on your husband, give’m a break…
Lol. It happens often.
Every time you review something that could be nice, it makes it not nice. Go Away.
Ooh, do you feel better? 😬 I hope so actually! Hey, I’m not ashamed of sharing reality here on our channel! If you want perfection, you’ll not find it here, though you are always welcome if you please keep the negative remarks to yourself (mostly). Hope you have a great day and remember we are here for you if you ever need to talk or vent and are having a bad day ❤️🙏✝️⚓️
Awesome jet🤌🏼 what reciever are you using nate?
Geez, you'd think you'd know by now that edf jets don't fly that long and would have telemetry or a timer set, it's almost as if you all just started this hobby and channel by making these rookie mistakes. Face palm moment 🫣
That’s one way to look at it! Hey, I’m nearly 35 and I still sometimes burn my toast. I have accepted imperfection and life’s good that way! 👍😁❤️💯⚓️
