- Hey Guys today turned out to be a very sad day. It started great with sunshine, good vibes and a new plane but quickly escalated into disaster.
Watch me maiden my Mustang P-51D by Eflite Horizon Hobby and feel my pain as I send her into the ground :/

Great crash my friend. And on the camera ;-) But thanks to God for Foam Tac glue ;-) Big salute from Slovenia, Pilot Robert
Hey Pilot Robert it’s an honor to have you in the comments 😄🙏🏽 It was sad day but after looking at the damage today I can see the bird is very repairable 👌🏽😃 Gonna do some fixing and come back with a video very soon 🔜🚀
Big salute from The Netherlands 🇳🇱👨🏽✈️
@@VinceIrie I have just seen on FB that the front is clean break so you will fix it. Put some carbon bars in. And do check blades good so they dont explode on next flight if there is maybe some crack there.
@@VinceIrie Always love good video of RC planes. Even good crash. I have just crashed Lancaster two days ago on the last turn before landing. But why to cry ;-)
Petrincic Bros RC Thanks for tips will def change the props I think so 😄 Don’t want any explosions anymore with this beautiful bird 😃
Thanks for sharing. Now she's gonna be your daily flyer. I crashed 3 ,70mm F16s, back to back to back weekends. My first time flying. A year later, I have 2 warbirds, P51 daily, and a Zero. I am learning to fly slow, more control and then go back to EDFs.
You simply got it upside down, panicked, pulled up and dove it hard. You weren’t going too slow.
Nah, that was a wing drop stall, so he went too slow on turning. When you turn you need to increase the throttle. He didn't do it.
Perfect day to BE sad it!!! LOL
You have saved us all precious time and money thanks to this video. 🙂👌
I have broken off the nose section many times. An easy repair. I actually enjoy doing the repairs. I can't help but admire my own handy work that other pilots can't even tell it's been repaired and refinished.
So true! I started to enjoy repairing mine now too 😄👌🏽
@@VinceIrie Yeah man, I got my techniques down pretty good now.
Still working on mine...Not there quite yet 😂
At 6:20, I was like: "oh he's gonna stall it in the next turn!"
The 1.5m P51 is on the heavier side compared to their 1.2m p51. So it needs some speed in turns. If this was the 1.2m version, u might've got away with that speed. Hope you get it patched up and back in the air soon!
Thanks for sharing that bad experience... This helps all of us to apprehend better RC warbirds handling... I just hope you managed to fix it and fly it again. All the best!
Daaaaannnng, did the exact same thing with same plane today!!! Was super stoked to fly my p51, flew my extra 300 first to get the jitters out of my thumbs and tried flying the mustang like the 300...stal....blammo! You said way less cuss words than I did!
What's a "second maiden flight" 😁 never heard of.
Hope she is in the air soon tho 👍
Just remember.
When in doubt, throttle out!
Great job fixing it up and getting back out flying. Stay safe.

Thanks so much Doug! Exactly when in doubt throttle out it 👌🏽 Greetings from The Netherlands 🇳🇱
Foam Tac, foam filler and go to home depot and get them to match the paint. Glue it, fill it, sand it paint it and you'd be surprised how good it looks.
Oeh that sounds like a good plan 😎👌🏽 Thanks bro 🙏🏽
Dang that sucks bud!! You’ll get it back going quick!! 👍🏼👍🏼
Damn! Sorry this happened Vince. Such an awesome warbird. Can you make a video of how you repair it?
Everybody wants that.... 🤣. Truth!
Lesson learned, yeah little slow into the turn, been there too, but she will fly again. Very fixable my friend! Looking forward to see her back up. Best of luck !
Thank you my friend 🙏🏽 I am fixing her up as we speak...Video up soon 🔜
happy to help you film this maiden! too bad she crashed on her first flight but she will rise from the ashes!!! So strange to hear your own voice LOL gr Didier
Thanks buddy! Hopenfully a more successful maiden next time 🤞🏽😅
I crashed my P 51 Mustang on maiden and flew into a fence going about 50 miles an hour, damage was very similar. I fixed her right up and I’ve probably got 200 awesome fights on it now. Although it does not look as pretty as when I bought her she’s a wonderful airplane. Get some glue and get back in the air and will look forward to your re-maidenin video
Ahw dude bummer to hear that. I feel your pain. Great to hear you fixed her up and had many flights 😃 Givea me hope 🤣💪🏽
I'm sorry for your loss my friend😕 Good news is that all you'll need is a new fuselage and patience removing all the electronics and connectors from the old fuselage and transplanting them into the new one! 👍🏾
Nice iX12 my friend!, Mine is the Blue one. I wanted that green one, but they were gone, so I grabbed the blue while I still had a chance, and I like it a lot!...
On another note, on Maiden flights, I like to fly my planes a bit higher, so I could have a chance of saving them should something go wrong!, but that's just me, everyone has their ways to do things!... 👍🏾
I hope that you can fix your beautiful plane soon! You'll see that it'll look great again!...👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾 I also have one, and I love it!...
Well you earned my subscription my friend!...👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾 Have a great rest of your day! Greetings from Douglas, Arizona 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾🌵🦠😷🇵🇷

Hey Douglas! Thanks for the sub and all the tips...You are right I should have been flying a bit higher up :) Damage isn’t so bad I am already fixing her up to get her back in the air...I really love my green IX12...Blue one looks amazing as well 😍 New video will be up soon...Got some amazing tigermoth fpv footage incoming 🚀 Greeting from The Netherlands 🇳🇱
Aren’t you supposed to lever the plane when you turn on the transmitter?? 👍🙋♂️🖖🏻🇺🇸
Nice flying man that’s a clean break and easy fix you’ll be back in the air pretty quick 👍
Yeah for sure! Check out my remaiden video...I did exactly that 😄🚀
Cept for the that hosed prop and motor. Gonna be buzzy.
It's gotta be embarrassing to crash with a lot of people around but every Crash is Lesson Learned 🤜🏻🤛🏻
The great duality in life, hate to see you crash but luckily you got it on camera 😬
Exactly my thoughts 😅😎 Crashing sucks but it’s better to have it on Camera if it happens. You win some you lose some right!? 😃
Learn to walk, before you try to run my friend. War birds don't take prisoners.
Several P-51's I have flown exhibit tip stall with large elevator inputs. Reduce the elevator throw to avoid the issue. Moving the CG forward should also reduce the severity of tip stall.
... and increase the stall speed.
Most warbird pilots I know do not understand CG range and use a CG that is too much forward, causing them to loose planes in very gentle stalls at medium speeds...
Thanks for the tips Ted will def keep this in mind 😄🙏🏽
To bad with that great looking warbird just going down. These turn stalls bites you sometimes and it hurts I know. I hope you get it repaired and up in the air soon. That's a nice location to fly at also.
Yeah man I feel so sad...Such a beautiful bird...but I will surely fix her and fly her again...Lesson learned I hope 🤞🏽
I knew he was going to stall it when he kept going by lower and slower. Warbirds need speed to fly correctly.
Very true! Stay tuned remaiden coming soon 😎🚀
Banked left when you should have banked right.
Yeah dude, all of your low altitude turns were perilously slow for a warbird! Looks like you got off easy with just a fuselage given your gear was tucked away and you came down in some tall grass. Cool video brother. Love your enthusiasm!!
Thanks bro I am always so pumped when flying rc haha 😄 Yep way too slow hopefully lesson learned 😅
Hey guys here's an open invitation to participate in a virtual Fun Fly in Real Flight Multiplayer 1/24/22 field "Montana Madness" every Tuesday night 9pm-10:15pm. It's a lot of fun with RC pilots from all over the world. Spread the word.
I think the sign was when you were about to step on the tail of plane, that was a sing of stop and rethink the flight plan,, but it happens to the best brother, been there done that!!! Great video though!!!
Hahaha that was the sign indeed my friend...I was a bit rushed and very hyped haha..My love for RC makes me go a bit loco from time to time 😄
Oh no sorry for that crash made me cringe. But did not look to bad little glue and it will be back up. It will still be a great flyer and still a great looking plane.
Yeah man I had a little moment of disbelief hit me but alas it was really happening...Damage looks like it can be fixed so I am pretty stoked about that and I’m gonna fix her up asap
Bummer... Your not the first you won't be the last... You got away light if you nosed it on the field without the long plants to break the fall it would have been a right off.
If you ain't crashing. You ain't flying
Stay well

If you ain’t crashing you ain’t flying! 😎👌🏽🔥 Thats right my brother! Thanks for the good vibes 🙏🏽 Remaiden up soon 🚀
@@VinceIrie cool up n away
Good luck be waiting for the VID next time..... POWER......
STAY WELL
BRIAN
Glue and kabob skewers.
Sucks Bro, It Happens Tho!! BIG SALUTE From California !! 🤙🤙🤙
Ahhh bummer man, but you can fix that..tooth picks and glue and she's back. Good luck on the next maiden!
I’m on it 😄👌🏽🚀 Can’t wait to get her back in the air...Video up soon so stay tuned...
😅 it's just a minor damage bro..those cracked parts are still fine..just glue it up n it will flies like never been crashed before😄 glues are invisible up in the skies especialy when you've repainted them 😆
Thanks for the awesome comment bro! Like you said I’m just gonna fix her up and fly her like she deserves 👨🏽✈️🚀 After looking at the damage today it’s totally fixable 😃
It can be fixed
It's always sad when that happens, you won't see any repairs when it's back in the air !
So sad and also so true 😄🙏🏽 Gonna fix her up nicely 👨🏽✈️🚀
Ahh you hit the ground with the plane. You can’t do that. It goes in the air.
that's a bummer... I have spitfire that I need to fly... I'm scared of doing the same thing. my issue is i can't find the right prop for it (it's an FMS 1800mm spit and had a 3 piece prop) it never came with a prop so i don't know what to put on it. I have a 10 inch prop on there right now but not sure if that will be enough
At the end of the day you just gotta send it bro! But do make sure the prop is enough though 😄👌🏽
damn i don't no how you doing fly that thing because controller so hard to used not the same as helicoptor if i know how to fly man i am gone buy the big boi you got skill bro damn
Thanks buddy will get her back in the air soon 😎🚀
@@VinceIrie can you make video learn how to play on plane and how to used it on controller ??
VietAnchoi Yeah maybe I’ll do that
Banked a little too steep for that airspeed I think. We've all been there before.
Yes it was a sad day 😓😅
Oh I know how you feel much too well!
:/
Dam I guess we always expect to crash, bonus if we go home with a complete plane. Some glue and paint she be great 👍🏻
That is very true buddy...I am fixing her up and getting her back in the air soon 😄🚀
Dude.....gravity is a bitch. I know how you feel...every plane i brought to the club....i crashed it at landing🙈
Soon my corsair will arrive and maybe we can fly together.
Crashing sucks but happens sometimes unfortunately. We just gotta keep on pushin! Yeah bro let me know we go fly at the club :D
Dang bro!! power is your friend with this one!! I have stalled this off camera before but luckily just ripped a servo horn out. I sure you will crush it next time! great flying otherwise!
Hey bro thanks for stoppin by....Yep gotta keep that throttle on next time...Only a servo horn that sounds good :) Mine is also not looking so bad...I’m fixing her them I’ll send it 🚀🔥
@@VinceIrie Full Send ✌🏽 I’m doing a Maiden today it’s finally nice outside 50 degrees with no wind. Good luck 🍀👍🏽
Hamiltons Hangar Have fun bro days with no wind are the best 😍🚀
Ouch, luv da smile
Yep I am still very sad...Gotta keep smilin though :D
Mustang stall very common rookie mistake good luck
Oops lol yep that’s was expensive lol 😂 been there done that always hurts get it fixed and let it rip
Thanks for stoppin by bro! Yeah that was hella shitty sure 💩 Gonna fix her up and send it!!!! 👨🏽✈️🚀🔥
Yeah that's the only thing bad about warbirds you definitely can't get them to slow in turn.
That is very good to know thanks Victor 😄🙏🏽
@@VinceIrie We've all been there!
Just the nose and your gear was up you can call that a lucky crash the balsa version would be a bunch of tootpics
For sure! That is great about foam. Really want a balsa model too though :D Hope I don't crash then...
Ouch! Can be fixed? Maybe a new fuse only?
yeah maybe I should get a new fuse...Or glue it 😅
@@VinceIrie try to glue and cocktail stick it, just to see! You can always get a new fuse if it doesn’t work.
@@hoah Yea, when this happens I always repair the plane if I can in case I crash again BUT I almost always go ahead and order spares for whatever was damaged. I've got three of my planes that have a full fuselage and wing replacements ready to because I've crashed them before
Ouch! I know how this feels!
Yeah bro! Sucks so bad...But I’m fixing her up and the damage isn’t so bad after all so my heart isn’t completely broken 😅
@@VinceIrie hahaha, well, at least it wasn't a balsa model as you'd be building it anew from scratch, this is exactly why I stopped doing scale models, they either stay on the shelf and stay pretty, or you fly them and at some point there's a little accident and they're not as pretty as they used to be!
Yeah not going the balsa route just yet 😅 I also want them to stay pretty but I also want them to fly 🤣 Nice hobby though just need to get better at flying these birds and don’t do stupid stuff 💩
@@VinceIrie what I've learned, and what you found out the hard way, is that these have pretty high wing loading and you'd rather fly 'm too fast than too slow!
Arf 😫😫😫 yes too much roll angle with not enough throttle 😔 sorry man...
Yes exactly 😓 So sad but totally fixable after looking at the damage today 😃
It looked like most of the flight was to slow for a war bird. Fly it like you stole it.
Yep I was flying her way toooo slow the whole time 😅 I like it to go slow and sexy before I send it but man I should have kept the throttle om more 😓 Lessons learned...Next time Imma send it 👨🏽✈️🚀
I could fix that you would not be able to tell
It happens to the best of us bro The good thing is it teaches ya to hopefully never do that again and the good thing about foam planes is you can actually fix it pretty easy If that was a balsa plane it would have literally exploded into a hundred pieces 😂 I love warbirds and this Mustang was flying great Hope to see it flying again soon I subbed 🔥👍✌️
Yep I hope I don’t do this again 😅 Thanks for the sub buddy! Gonna master these planes before I got to balsa i think 🚀
I’m sort of the Jehovah’s Witness for Eflite planes and EDF’s starting with the Apprentice 6 years ago, every Timber they ever made and probably their “peach day resistance”, best thing they ever made, the 64mm a-10. What got me into the sport was wanting to get good enough to fly a P-51. The Eflite Blondie was perfect. But this P-51 looked like nothing but trouble. I watched Pilot Ryan’s maiden and knew this wasn’t the plane for me. Even the paint scheme is awful. Sorry for the crash. I’m going to hold off for an upgrade to the Blondie until Freewing, or maybe even Eflite comes out with a 1600mm. The 3 best flying, most enjoyable, most stress free are the Flightline 1600mm P-38, Corsair and the Spitfire. And of course the Eflite a-10.
what is going on here..i dont want to be a keyboard buttpirate but I think you might need to fly some trainer planes before flying this one.
Keyboard butt pirate 🏴☠️ Haha I like that one...I have put over 100 Flight on my Tundra alone 😅 I actually know how to fly I just messed this one up badly 🤣 I am actually a drone racer. Competed in DCL & DR1 etc.
slow...tip stall. too slow in too tight a turn...official FAA report: Pilot Error lol
When I fly, I concentrate. I hardly talk at all. Seriously, dude, you lost focus because you were talking too much. You were thinking about what others thought about you and your flying skills.
Leave the language at home !
Not impressed !
Crashes are just a fact of live, LOL go on my channel you'll find some good ones there
Yeah thats right! Sometimes these things just happen and you learn from it :) Will check out your channel 😄
Everyone crashes
