Hehehe....much fun watching you guys fly that Micro P40 ;-) I thought I saw a couple of people dive to the ground and cover their heads. They must have thought I was on the controls. Great fun and that's what this Hobby is all about. See you in the Air!
I have the Spifire and it was very unpredictable until i added a small amount of weight to the nose area [ a piece of resin cred solder wire 1mm thick secured between the front exhaust manifolds] plane was immediately better and the other issue i had was it tip stalled so easily on the first setting so mid flight i flicked the switch to the middle and its a much better plane all round. Regards Chris
I received this plane a couple of days ago, it is very resilient indeed. The landing gear/where the landing gear mount not so much because on a hard landing i ripped landing gear and mount right out, then on another landing I lost the little black piece that holds the wheel on the other landing gear I didn't rip out the first time (i think I can soldier a brass wheel retainer for a slot car on there and it wont ever come off). Did you guys setup the gyro out of the box? That could be why it was flying wonky if your in beginner or intermediate mode. My plane wanted to climb like crazy in expert mode, so I shoved a penny under the motor and used the trim to get it manageable.
Obviously no one read the manual and obviously neither of you are Intermediate or Expert flyers... LOL First light Logic dictates to take off in Beginner mode... then switch to more aggressive modes in the air.

Love the look of this little plane, mini warbirds are one of my favourite kinds of RCs
It would be nice to increase the size
by a few cm like the XK-430 and
re-release it as a brushless system specification.
woww nice plane rc

Thanks for sharing
You can tell a pro at work when he has a knife all ready 😁
😆
Not so much a pro with a knife… looking at the cut on his finger😂
I converted the radio to mode 1 for a local flyer.
try putting in some noseweight.3 to 5 gr. it worked miracles on mine ;)
Yup, 3 US pennies at motor access hatch does the trick. The Spitfire needs 2 pennies.

I trimmed out the roll on the transmitter but could also have solved it by calibrating the gyro.
NEW PILOTS.....Launch the war series in beginner mode... you will have more successful launches.
Great stuff Dom, now I have some tips. The other day had to be aborted. Hope to have fun this week 😎
Good luck 👍
Great flick man. Why wouldn't we want to try it in beginner mode?
For an absolute beginner, yes, but it really limits the aileron and elevator movement making turns very very large
Odd i have had 4 of these planes and they flew in beginner mode right out of the box. Maybe yours was made on a friday.
Do you know where I can get some cheap propellers for this plane? I can only find ones for $15 aud each on Banggood
I don't know of any other supplier than Banggood. Sorry.
man, I wanted this plane so much, but I opted for the spitfire, it was much cheaper.. p40 was worth 130 USD while the spitfire was worth 85 USD
Because Spitfire has been available for a while I think...
@@EssentialRC well, that could be it, but the f4u corsair is worth more than the spitfire, and that's weird, because it's older
When I bought my T-28 less than a year ago, it was 41 euros with 3 batteries. Now it's 104 euros 😬
o piloto no começo levou surra kk depois conseguiu voar bom vou
Why is the prop keep popping off?!
Designed to do it so it doesn't break

Looks Tail Heavy chaps..
Lipo only has one position 🤗

So wrong. 🤣 Makes no difference if its way out of trim.
@@EssentialRC 🤔🙄😵💫
Got the volantex version...not impressed..almost unflyable..$120 waste
