    I have the red -blue Tundra 2. Actually this livery looks much better and of course, the lights are quite nice. A pitty they didn't mace better Wheel Nuts and stronger Springs for suspension. The flaps are really cool, they slow the plane down, more than i've experienced on other birds, like the FMS Piper Super Cub or the Robbe Beaver. It's a great Bush Plane.

    Great video. Fantastic Airplane. Years ago I got the Green and Silver color design. Currently has 552 recorded flight's on it, and still good to strong. This color design is So much Better. Landing gear is Strong, Wide, and way forward of the C/G, the way a Bush Plane should be. Unlike all the Timber's. The only Mod that I would suggest would be to get some softer wheel's. Pavement landings are pretty bouncy with the factory Wheel's. No Gyro needed on this airframe. Extremely stable. Great informational video Adam. Love your channel.

    • @ModelAV8RChannel
      @ModelAV8RChannel  หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Thanks man! Great airplane. None of the popular high wing bush planes really "need" a gyro, but all can benefit from them in many situations. The forward gear placement is also part of what makes smooth surface landings bouncy. Helps in the rougher stuff though.

    Another thought that you can include in future videos when it comes to batteries is what is the technical reason they are referred to as 3S instead of 3C for the word cells.

    • @ModelAV8RChannel
      @ModelAV8RChannel  หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Excellent review AV8R!! This updated Tundra looks like a winner. My mother would've really liked the OSU paint scheme. For me, now it's a toss up between the Super Cub and the Tundra!! Edit: although the SC uses "bolts n brass fittings for the gear/floats instead of screws and possibly a bigger esc for 4s. The motor is already 4s compatible.

    • @ModelAV8RChannel

    Another excellent review and, thank you Adam, I noticed the metric weights! I love the improvements to the landing gear (on my Grand Tundra, I have to fit new black hair elastic ties to it every season) and the wiring plugs (mine is converted to one multiplex plug per side). 4S looks absolutely nuts, given its performance is great on 3S. I've tried my GT on 6S and, whilst it was much fun, it was also bad mannered at low speeds so this won't be tried again unless I obtain some 6S packs that are smaller than the 5000 I tried! (In 6S I only have quad sized and a pair of 5000s).

    • @ModelAV8RChannel

    • @Retset
      @Retset หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      @@ModelAV8RChannel Yes, I'm think 3300 or so. I'm not buying any just for it as I often just like to fly it in a bush plane manner. That said, I might make up a lead to use some small 6S in parallel or big 3S in series - be good for the occasional zoom fest!

  • @jollyroger2226
    @jollyroger2226 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Very good demo ! Looks like it can be fun for just plain old flying and bush flying as well. The tires seemed like they were quite hard, and the gear placement seems a bit forward. So trying to do touch & goes etc. - without bouncing seems like a challenge. I did like how you brought it in for some 3 point landings - which seems optimal. Tempting to get one - put the floats on it - and just have a floater.

    I'm wondering what discharge rate would suit for 3S and what other ramifications arise from using 3S instead of 4S

    • @ModelAV8RChannel
      @ModelAV8RChannel  หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      You're reading way too much into C ratings. It's fine with any decent 3s or 4s. Almost nobody sells anything below 30c anyway, and anything above that is fine. C ratings are BS anyway. There is no standard...that is to say there is no governing body that determines what gives a battery a certain rating. For any given company, they usually determine what they will label a battery based on internal resistance. So if a battery comes off the line and has an internal resistance in range "A", those are labeled one thing, range "B" another, and so on. The thing is, each company determines those ranges themselves, so no two companies are the same. One companies 30c may have the same internal resistance as another's 50c. It has been proven that no Lipo on the planet can handle more than about 40c (actual) constant anyway. Batteries labeled 70c, 100c, 200c...total BS. They do it because everybody else does and if they don't their batteries won't sell. Put any good battery in the Tundra and you'll be fine. 3s or 4s.

      @@ModelAV8RChannel Sure but not something you should have to fix imo.

      Brother that is just part of model aviation. Very few totally stock airplanes in our hangar, and as "mods" go...tires are the easiest and cheapest change to make. If that is the only thing that isn't perfect about a model I consider it a win usually. Try a Dynam plane for instance...you'll wish the tires were the only thing you needed to change. Lol.

      @@ModelAV8RChannel I have a v1 of this plane as my park flyer when i don't want to go to the field. Rubber tires. It's lazy and doesn't save a lot on the cost and and isn't user friendly on landings. Like I said, just my opinion that they should have put rubber tires on. No need to sell me the idea of epo tires.

      I'm not selling you anything, just stating a fact. Tires are the thing most companies cut costs on at a factory because they are easier to replace for the end user. When they are discussing budget and deciding what features to pay for with a specific price point in mind, tires are often the thing they will cut a corner on. If they don't cut the corner on something, the plane costs more...and people will piss and moan about $10 more. We are not an affiliate for HK, and even if we were tires are just not something I rant about...my opinion. Modelers are the ones that are lazy now more than ever and really just want to be flyers not modelers. If everything isn't done for them they moan about it. You gave me your opinion...that's mine.

    I'm done with HK . Looks like more of the same old thing.

      Well this one is different. Crazy power on 4s, which needed to happen honestly. You might want to check out the RC Groups YT channel. They have a recent interview with HK's new CEO. They have new investors, know and own the past issues, and seem to be focused on getting it all sorted.
