Just wanted to thank you guys for developing this system. 40yrs ago I was the flying club instructor for many summers I had 6+ students learning how to fly the balsa gas planes. I had a great record only lost one plane and all my students were proficient flyers after a few weeks of Saturday/Sunday flying. Even 40yrs later and a solid 30yrs being out of the area a couple of now adults will recognize me if I swing by the air strip. Never fails they all want to share the latest stuff and see if I still have it by handing me a controller 😆😆. Its like riding a bike👍 Now I have my pre teen kids learning to fly these little stem planes at our park a few times a week. Maybe one day I’ll get back into the bigger stuff. But having lots of fun thanks to Flite Test with these little foam flyers👍
comment#2: Watching you son grow up and be in the videos has been so cool. What a well instrustive man he has become. I love seeing you and your family grow. I praise you and your family. I hope good fortune stays with all of you in these tough times. I have had a few, so I am sorry for any confusion.
"Basics" is what you guys started from (so glad you're getting back to these STEM Projects). I know what the first $99 of my "Stimulus Check" is going for (if and when I ever get it, that is!). Haha! Stay Safe and Healthy, and Thanks again for these Excellent How-To Videos.
JOSH: I hope you, your family, and all of thr flitetest crew and their families are staying safe. I love all of you, or in the south... I live all ya'll.. lol.. (I have a Ohio family history but still say soda over pop). I love all you all do for this hobby, and just want the best for everybody.
Love it how you now list the tools/equipment that you will need at the start of the video! Really great idea and very helpful. Thanks and keep up the good work
A couple tips. - if you are going to put on the RC pieces, I would recommend run the right motor wires through the hole in the fuselage, through the hole in the circuit board and then plug it in BEFORE you mount the engine OR the circuit board on the aircraft. There is not a lot of extra wire and I spent more time trying to fish that little white plug through the hole and getting it plugged in than I did on the entire rest of the build. -If you use double sided tape to mount the circuit board, make it a little long to extend below the bottom of the board to protect the power switch and the LED. Also check it after every crash..er landing to make sure it isn't loose. I flew with on that was loose... if you want to call that bucking bronco a flight.
Please mention about that you have a Canadian distributor in Canada more often for your Canadian. Lots of us don't know that you have one in Canada they don't want to pay the duty fees.
Not only great for my Grandbabies, but even for Myself, to fly around my Apartment Courtyard or Parking Lot!! Josh, I hope that you, Jen and your whole Family stay SAFE! 😷 Carmine ✈🚂🚙
These are STEM Kits, and according to information found on the FT Forum, they currently don't plan to release free plans for them. BUT, you can buy the FT STEM EZ-Pack ($35), and put it on your own DIY builds. 👍
I have the same receiver from the C 17 before it was sold by flitetest, and noticed it has two other purple two-pronged plugs like the ones used for the motors. is there a use for these, could I use servos on this receiver??! just wondering during the quarantine.
dear flite test can you please tell us what the electrical componites are or at least where to find them on our own if we wanna build the controls ourselves?
we want to buy dozens of your ez3packs kits with enoughextra parts and engines etc for all the planes..but we dont know what the parts numbers are..we dont need 100 transmitters...??????

It would be nice to get the plans to scratch build.
Must say Josh......you are super as a taecher....and very good instructor.....
Finally FT is what it used to be - Good and educational. Well done Josh.
I’m so happy you guys still doing videos👍😀

I need to build this for my 6 year old little brother. He is always interested when im building my scratch builds😁
The Bob Ross of RC builds.

Thx this will help me a lot
Can you guys separate the planes so you can buy only one because I really want one and it really expensive

Wait r the build plans free?
Not only great for my Grandbabies, but even for Myself, to fly around my Apartment Courtyard or Parking Lot!!
Josh, I hope that you, Jen and your whole Family stay SAFE! 😷

Are the scratch build plans up to download?
Are there free plans of these
I do believe it's under the stem build. That's for schools and kids
Are the plans available for download?
Usually if they have a video on it they have the plans for it to download

I can't find this FT STEM EZ-Pack
I have the same receiver from the C 17 before it was sold by flitetest, and noticed it has two other purple two-pronged plugs like the ones used for the motors. is there a use for these, could I use servos on this receiver??! just wondering during the quarantine.
Could you share the plans for this? I have the power pack and want to build it.
Have you found any ?
Where can I find the scratch buid plans
Dadeo of 4 I think they don’t release plans for stem products. I searched the website for previous models I couldn’t find them.
THESE ALL LOOK GOOD..
Finally something I can build
Hi, I'm wondering is this motor can use without the connecter and remote control. I'm looking for this size of motor. I need my plane to free fall.
Do you sell the electronics separately? And are the foamies downloadable for scratch building?
Yes and yes
Will you make a video about your kitfox?
Just an idea, how about an ez version of the me 163 komet?
You mentioned scratch building in the build video. Any idea when the plans will be available?
dear flite test can you please tell us what the electrical componites are or at least where to find them on our own if we wanna build the controls ourselves?
Can I make a RC plane by mini drone transmitter and rcvr??
Can you make a large scale version of this plan please? Keep it differential thrust.
does flite test deliver out of the usa
Do we need any special permissions to fly this is USA?
it would be cool if you could make an a-wing for this kit
Where are the plans?
Where can you purchase extra battery; what are the specifications (voltage, milliamps, connector, etc) of the battery?
Can you fly with 400mah??
Put those motors on a tiny a-10 or a legacy!
is there a printable plan or diagram for this plane
Since it's a flat airfoil, what happens when you give it a negative angle of incidence (not AoA)?
Does in come in mode 1?
Numero 1 Saluti dal Piemonte🍷🍷🍷
How can we scratch build it if you don't give us the plans.
Mine just goes a few feet and then tumbles to the ground
There is no 5mm foamboard in Zagreb, Croatia
we want to buy dozens of your ez3packs kits with enoughextra parts and engines etc for all the planes..but we dont know what the parts numbers are..we dont need 100 transmitters...??????
Worth my $100
