Buddies Flying Planes 3/3/2024

0:50 - Blitzworks 50mm ME262 Edf Jet - Avian 40 amp dual esc, stock edf, 4s 1800mah battery AR630 receiver dual elevator servos - She took off a touch early but the flight went excellent, need to tweak the ESC a bit because the edfs lock up and stutter at times. Had a sketchy moment in flight when applying throttle, one motor stuttered in flight causing the plane to yaw to the right, throttled off and eased it back on allowing for a safe landing.
4:54 - Wingsmaker J10b - Mercury 64mm Edf, 4s 2200mah battery - Captain Maurice on the sticks stunting around doing high alpha maneuvers…..until it wasn’t.
07:40 - Flite Test Retro Rocket - pusher prop with thrust vectoring - maiden attempts then great success. This model requires a lot of reflex in the control surfaces. The first maiden attempts there was no reflex on the control surfaces. After some time at home reevaluating the build, Flying Ace Dell came to the realization that she needed quite a bit of “up elevator” to make the Retro Rocket fly, and fly it did, hilariously 🤣
A “reflex jig” is included in the kit…be sure to use it.
14:30 - Freewing 70mm F16 - This one has been to the feild many times but never actually been flown. Today Captain Maurice braved the wind and rain to give us a show…never a dull moment with this guy
19:03 - F.O.D. - Foreign Object Debris - E-Flite Prometheus on the runway.
19:30 - E-Flite Carbon Cub SS - Wingman Josh taking evasive action
20:20 - Freewing 64mm F18 - Soph our hand toss expert, putting another one in the air for Captain Maurice.
21:35 - Durafly Goblin - AR630 receiver, 3s 2200 mah battery - Soph pulling off a successful maiden and landing with some laughs.

Glad you got it to fly. Great job!

Yes it flew great once set up correctly. The pusher motor they sell for it is tiny and has already burned out. Definitely go bigger on the motor. But yeah it flew great after getting the reflex in the elevons.
