Discover RC (RIP) did a bush jet a while ago, but cred it to you guys, you actually made one that flies! Keep on doing what you do, the RC community needs this!
They said they didn't stop the RC, just the videos. Tail Heavy kind of reminds me of them, just a bit different styles. Hopefully they will come back someday, the internet is big enough for everyone.
I modified the cockpit on my 15th anniversary viper jet. My gerbil has logged a couple hours in the jet now. She enjoyed it very much while eating a carrot and enjoying the view. I have videos of her cruising around, but I never post because I don’t need PETA breaking my gerbils heart and telling her she can’t fly anymore. She has enjoyed many flights of the Hollywood sign, very scenic for a gerbil, but I love to spoil her. I have renamed my gerbil, mother of dragons, Daenerys, breaker of chains now. I ask that you do not report me, as this is all fake, and I do not actually own a gerbil. 😂
Dammit! I was JUST about to send you guys a bunch of free XK planes, in the hopes you'd CA them all together and create the next news worthy UFO sighting. Oh well. As usual, AWESOME video. You guys crack me up. 👍
I think you should do more camera drone reviews, ya know, what Cody would want… we all know he is also going to snap up that Remote ID module immediately too…
I dunno. I think some of the stuff that Jon at 2 bro’s RC does with jets is impressive. And seeing guys 3D fly thrust vectoring turbine jets on the RC geek is equally awesome. To each his own, but jets and boring? I personally find them thrilling.
I've modified quite a few tricycle landing gear planes into tail draggers. Take offs are a little different but other than that they fly the same. I like the landings as come in on the mains and i don't worry about bending the nose gear.
When most of your experience is with very low wing loaded foam planes, it unlikely that you have developed the skills to handle this edf properly out of the box.
Sponsors? We don't need no stinking sponsors!! Great video review THP. Bush jet should be interesting to see. I think Robert Petrincic strapped a couple edfs to a Avios bushmule a couple years back. AirHammer out!!
Only yesterday, I wondered why that exact thing hadn't been done yet. Which probably means at least one of us should see a therapist - but there's no rush, is there? Thanks for the inspiration.
It’s a good airplane, but once we got the Flex 170, we never looked back. The 170 flies better all around than the Cub and has a much better power to weight as well.
I have an idea that I wanted to do myself, but don't want to risk wasting the money. I have a home made flying wing that I was going to make into and EDF stunt thing, but then those tri motor hybrid VTOL drone/plane things came out. I think one is called Convergence. I wanted to take that motor system, gut it and graft it into the flying wing so it would be like a VTOL B-2 type of plane. No idea if it would fly or transition from hover to flight, but I have used a pattern to build the wing, established CG, battery placement and all that, just haven't taken the time to do it. You guys should try it out and see if it flies.
In a weird way I understand y’alls attitude on EDF Jets being boring. It wasn’t until Two Brothers RC that more of the appeal was revealed, but even still, there seems to be little innovation of jet RC. Like all these models of aircraft meant to fly supersonic don’t really have half the equip those real life planes would need to fly slow. You rarely even see jet models with straight wings. There just seems to be a lot of stuff you can do design wise to make sport jets bite less and fly more that *isn’t* being done.
Hys-freakin'-terical! A master class in creative use of the language. The rapid-fire delivery is also spot-on. And I don't say all this lightly as I am a long-time retired radio news guy who spent 48 years talking into a piece of metal to make a living.
🤷♂️🤯! U do this video AFTER my viper is on the truck, on its way TO me! Couldn't wait another week or more?!😮 Yea, I should have ordered another fms Kingfisher!
Hey, I'm looking to install a cheap camera inside the cockpit of my P51D 1.2 that I would be able to download the footage afterwards and it being relatively high quality. Anyone have any ideas?
hey I commented a while ago about getting a mini aeroscout, finally got it. Tried to do bunny hops and it would propose. The battery is secured where it’s supposed to, but it feels nose heavy, what can I do?
Nut sure if serial. No disrespect intended, but this post is way off topic. No need to thread jack. Move the battery back a tad bit & do another flight until corrected.
@@TailHeavyProductions is the 50mm Habu Eflight…? I know some models get produced by a couple different companies, just didn’t want to buy the wrong one. Taking your word for this one, because I respect you as an “Ace” RC Pilot
Why would anyone be pissed at you? You guys are hilarious. I like all planes for different reasons. That’s probably why I have so many?? Hi, I’m Paul and I’m an addict… PS, I love this little Viper. It’ll be going with me in my semi
Hey guys I have tried to ask you before with no success but I would love to see you put the Arrows Bigfoot through its paces I am wondering if it can keep up with your other bush planes as it seems very capable but I cannot fly like you guys.
Hey there! We did reply to your comment asking the same last month, but I'll copy/paste it here. Unfortunately, we don't plan to buy one since it's wing cube loading sits at 8.1 - this is higher than even the Turbo Timber Evo. We chase light STOL planes which is why the Fun Cub is our forever favorite - it has a wing cube loading of 4.2. The weight in the Bigfoot definitely would make it feel more locked on windy days, though.
Or Best Review ever, it kept me in stitches the whole time. Just won this jet in the RC Geek giveaway, so had to see your review, the only one I'd waste my time on. Not something I would usually buy as I'm into throwing more money away in larger jets and prop planes, especially doing custom liveries if you've ever seen my videos, but a free aircraft is FREE. 🤣 And you're spot on regarding the rats nest of wing wires going into a pee hole, what a piece of 💩 design. May rewire that whole mess, and make it worse. 🤬 So I'll just fly the crap out of this and hopefully use up some of my many "pilot errors" instead of allocating more to my expensive aircraft. 🤑 Stay Frosty and don't get caught up in the review for hire gig. 😇
So glad you found it helpful, you'll enjoy the Viper if you're looking for a fun jet that will keep you on your toes more than some of the other options out there. Don't worry, we won't be doing any reviews for hire. 😁
Only thing better would have been to make it a straight wing biplane taildragger lol. Little fact many people don't know or haven't thought about. When you take something like a single wing fokker and turn it into a biplane like the fokker d7 you don't gain twice the lift by adding another wing. On average you only gain approximately 20% lift . Yay for Physics!
I think prop planes are way more fun in almost every other respect. I think my prop to edf ratio is at least 5-1 and if I want to fly in circles really fast I got that covered.
I just bought one of these Viper70mm. I have a short Airfield so I installed a Avian 100 Amp esc so I have thrust reverse. Well I didn't even get it off the ground. It ground crazy in take off and went hard left and flipped over. 😳 all glued back together but I'm now thinking twice about why I bought it.
Sorry to hear it! That's one of the common errors unfortunately with a jet like this that as you saw in the video, we made, too. EASE her into the air - be *very* careful loading up the wing with too much up elevator all at once, *especially* when taking off and landing. Hope your second try goes well! It'll teach you a lot.
The fact that y’all don’t have more views is criminal. One of the most creative and fun by channels I have seen, and always great editing, keep it up!
I love this channel

Me too

You have to spend money on a plane to truly know when you wasted money.
Couldn't have said it better.
Discover RC (RIP) did a bush jet a while ago, but cred it to you guys, you actually made one that flies!
Keep on doing what you do, the RC community needs this!
Discover rc was awesome
So tragic they stopped the rc after they said we shouldn't
I miss discover rc as well!!!!! So sad they stopped the rc.
I truly miss Discover RC too. They seemed like a neat bunch of folks.
They said they didn't stop the RC, just the videos. Tail Heavy kind of reminds me of them, just a bit different styles. Hopefully they will come back someday, the internet is big enough for everyone.
Jet is correct. A jet is a form of propulsion from a high velocity stream of air, such as formed by a gas turbine or an EDF.
That had to be the funniest RC plane review I have ever watched in my life! That was awesome
"Don't worry, bush Viper doesn't exist, it can't hurt you"
Bush Viper:
I modified the cockpit on my 15th anniversary viper jet. My gerbil has logged a couple hours in the jet now. She enjoyed it very much while eating a carrot and enjoying the view. I have videos of her cruising around, but I never post because I don’t need PETA breaking my gerbils heart and telling her she can’t fly anymore.

Wicked (awesome) video!!! I totally agree with your decision not to do sponsored reviews any more. Commercial and fun, do not blend that well. 😉
Hands down my favorite RC channel!
No paid reviews! Good for you guys.
Thanks!
I have to admit that you are the best RC channel on the interwebz. 😊
No lizards harmed in the making of this video. Monkey's on the other hand....😂
Best RC channel on TH-cam. Much appreciated guys.
Prop planes are fun, but nothing beat the sound of a fast EDF pass.
I've seen the turbo bushmaster in the background waaaayy to many times😂 when oh when is there going to be a video about it?
This is the best rc plane channel ❤
Man U got me with the title. I love my viper and once again another stellar production sirs
This is most definitley one of the Vipers of all time. Incredible really
This was too funny. Well done guys. I had a jet, I mean EDF, once that wouldn't even get off the ground...........
Congrats on no sponsors. Excited to see how it changes the channel.
Thanks for sharing. LOL on this one. Will have to watch it again once my sides stop hurting.
best review ever, how come you only have 30k subs with such great and honest content ?!?!
This is still an amazingly awesome EDF...like the Viper 90mm..
Appreciate your efforts and fuckery..
I've been waiting all week for this.
😂I made a "Bush Jet" About a month ago, had some of the same issues, glad to see I'm not the only Crazy one, 😂. I love this channel, great Video!
This is by far one of the few grate channels
Love what you guys do!
This channel offers two of my favorite things: RC planes and sarcasm. So I’ll be a loyal viewer FOR-EV-VER.
Best R/C channel by far.
Snuck in a sweet mom joke again! 😂
Actually a great review. I’m sure it will seal the deal for anyone on the fence. Great job boys! 👍🏻👍🏻

Awesome I always wanted to do fixed gear w funcub wheels on a edf.....also Wana do floats on a 3d balsa
Nice taildrager there boys. How about try it in the bush. Nice video like allways😊
Love this channel, the humor, and the decision to ditch the corporate sponsorship!
Thank you!
Did they ever fix the issue of the cracking between the wheel well and the flaps
Only yesterday, I wondered why that exact thing hadn't been done yet. Which probably means at least one of us should see a therapist - but there's no rush, is there? Thanks for the inspiration.
Hey guys I saw on some of your older content you had a carbon z cub, was wondering how you guys felt about the plane?
It’s a good airplane, but once we got the Flex 170, we never looked back. The 170 flies better all around than the Cub and has a much better power to weight as well.
you! review the Arrows F4U plz
