I once met an amazing mr talk too much with talent I couldn't imagine before. Half an hour after meeting him I was at his place watching VHS tapes of him flying and I barely avoided having lunch with his wife and kids. I don't think I said five sentences the whole time :)
You forgot the “know it all” he is the guy sitting in the lawn chair with an extra large hat on since he has no plans on flying, but has something to say to everyone who walks off the flight line. That one is a special breed. And ofcourse, the newbie, who usually needs help with everything, has to fly with a buddy box, and is rocking the Apprentice like it’s a top tier Tesla.
I love the low key shots at cody while describing tinkerer.... it's OK cody we know there's so much more to you and the hobby and especially extreme flught is lucky to have you
The wheeler and dealer. The guy that buys every plane he sees... then tries to sell it often times for nearly new in the box prices. They will try to sell you 6s batteries for "cheaper than you'll find anywhere else "
Im still really new to the hobby and have really gotten into it! I have no friends to talk to about it so when my little brother comes over I spend a good hour talking his ear off about my home made foam board built planes or settings on my spectrum controllor and all of it is foreign to him😂. I then relize I've talked way to much and I could keep going so I shut up.
Spot on as usual! I miss spending more time at the field with these characters. We have a super nice guy that basically lives at the field. Every perfect flying day he updates the whole club how great the conditions are at the field while most of us are at work thinking, what a perfect day for flying! Can’t wait for next weeks video no matter what the topic because it will be awesome! 👍🏻👍🏻
Love it! Great video. Don’t forget the “wants to please everyone” guy. The one who doesn’t fit into any category but will switch stereotype depending on who they are with for acceptance
Absolutely brilliant, probably because it’s so relatable and everyone has meet someone that falls into each category. Can’t wait for part 3, 4, 5 etc 😂
Perfection as always. Blessed to be there this episode, Amazing to watch these Pros at work. My Jaw spent most of the time on the ground but never the less upstanding great group of Rc Enthusiasts. 2 Thumbs Up Gentlemen
Great job, Zack! How about the guy that shows up at the field with 15 batteries or 2 gallons of fuel and begins flying non stop, one flight after the other without ever taking a break or talking to anybody?
The pilot who flys in a perfect circle , never takes risk and his throttle never goes above 50 percent and every one is spending more time trying to keep from running over him than flying.
Ahhh the legendary "Fun Cub" My second RC model after I'd hot glued the front back on to my Bixler 37 times. Fun cubs were tough and as the name suggests, fun. Wish I could buy another one now.
suggestion for part 3: the "butter landing" guy. He always says that he did a landing better than you, and that he can consistently land his plane smoothly. When you ask him if he can show you his landing, he always finds the worst possible, and overspecific excuses ever. He will tell you that his transmitter isn't working properly, yet his transmitter is brand-spankin new. If you offer him to fly your plane, he will either crash it, or he will fly it so far out that the plane goes missing, and if he tries to land, your planes goes into 7 parts and his excuse is: "Well, i'm not too familiar with your plane"
we had a "i did that 10 years ago" pilot but he did the good part was that when he got bored he would just give planes away at the club as 'it took too much time to sell them '
yup, want to see a part 3. The club i'm in here is mainly retired 65 yo+ . Theres one guy thats younger than me (42) that works for a rc motor company and flys 3d. The others pretty much all fly electric gliders. Oh, and one older guy flys edfs. The field is slightly bumpy (yet usualy mowed) and i've been told that if its to bumpy, get bigger wheels, no matter the size of the plane :D Maybe this can help for part 3 :D keep those videos coming. Stay calm and fly on
I can’t believe how little most newer pilots know about repairing aircraft because they have never built anything. How about a video of how the rc hobby has changed from building to assembling.
The builder that pays for his hobby by repairing and building planes for others that don't have the ability or skill to do it. They only bring a beat up foamy to fly and don't fly the awesome ones they have built for themselves because they never seem to finish them😎😁😃
Been in and out of the hobby for years. Finally got a job that pays enough and am thinking about getting back in. Done mostly quadcopters but I'm feeling the vibe of fixed wing. Might get the Freewing F-4 or F-22.. IDK, that F-15C they make is pretty sexy too.. And the B-2.. We'll see.. Regardless I want to do a head-tracking setup and maybe even incorporate a HOTAS.. I'm a big DCS fan so that sounds like the next logical step. I'm a mix of the "Soverign citizen/ Self designated FAA" from the last video and pattern flyer. I don't actually break the rules, mostly because I suck and I want to see where I crash so I can get my electronics back.. Cuz I'm gonna crash eventually, lol. But I also see it as a 2A violation to regulate drones/RC in any way. They're a viable and widely used weapon system therefore their use is protected under the second amendment and it shall not be infringed. I SHOULD be able to fly 50 miles in the middle of nowhere, the fact they care is in fact the problem. Not that people are doing it. It's a concept Thomas Jefferson called "Dangerous Freedom" and I prefer it to peaceful slavery.
Pensioner. Is flying the nicest oldtimer you can ever see. In some cases even radio controlled one. But you are sure that his plane dates to the time when Wright flyer was cutting edge technology.
@@vracan I have a back road that is surrounded by fields, there is traffic but usually a car every few minutes, best spot I could find close to home so far
One more type - the "silent public intruder". My local field is adjacent to a road and has no built up pit area, clubhouse or any sort of controlled entry. So anyone can park up and wander in to see what is going on. I once thought I was alone at the field only to land, turn around and find someone standing silently right behind me. Nearly jumped out of my skin - "oh I seen you flying from the road, thought I'd come in and have a chat". Don't get me wrong, it's nice to have someone interested, but they could be a bit LESS stealthy in coming in. Other times someone has been wandering about the 'pits' (just a bunch of folding tables) and inspecting all the models. Everyone assumes someone else must have brought a friend or whatever, only to discover again that someone just walked in and is nosing about without actually introducing themselves or starting any conversation.
One club near me is a county park designated as a RC field, so the county mows it. Another requires *everyone* take a turn mowing the field. So no lawn-mower power plays around these parts.
Those types of guys are in every hobby that is why I don't join clubs, been down that road and just got tired of it, As a wood turner I can tell the these guys abound in my hobby and my $10,000 lathe setup makes me the best in the world and your $2500 unit makes you a scrub, even though nobody has ever seen any of his projects
The older guy who can build and see well enough to fly but not well enough to bring it back to the runway. This guy recently got into quads, never sets up a beeper or GPS properly, and you and the rest of the club spend half of the day....every weekend.... searching for his quad
We had a Speed Demon crossed with the "Wanna fly my plane?" guy at our field a while back. Yeah, it's a bit nervewracking knowing that the angry foam wing you've been handed the controls to "Can do about 120 on the flat at wide open." It also wasn't quite a proper weekend at the field without either a spicy pillow getting angry in the pit lane, a foam explosion followed by "Oops," or "Got a new plane, let's see how fast she'll go." Usually some out of the box angry wing coated in fiberglass, reinforced with carbon fiber rods, with the biggest brushless motor he could bolt onto it. Scary thing was when he tried EDF jets and got annoyed because "they don't go fast enough" and started trying to make them into pusher-props.
Most fliers who have been in the hobby has little bit most of the categories. As I'm a flier who has lots of nice planes, but has the need to take at least one messed up plane to the field just to prove it will fly. My friends call them the cartoon planes.
I once met an amazing mr talk too much with talent I couldn't imagine before. Half an hour after meeting him I was at his place watching VHS tapes of him flying and I barely avoided having lunch with his wife and kids. I don't think I said five sentences the whole time :)
We need part 3 of this and part 3 of weird rc plane designs

There's a guy at my flying field that we call Buzzard. You will find him circling every crash site
I love how you "trash talk" some of these personality types.... Then offer the flip side of it how they are benefitting the hobby\club\community.
I love the low key shots at cody while describing tinkerer.... it's OK cody we know there's so much more to you and the hobby and especially extreme flught is lucky to have you
When I noticed it was Cody as the tinkerer, I had to go back 5 seconds. Then I couldn't stop laughing!
@ 1:28 so true about lawn mower guy. hats off to him for keeping our airfield amazing looking.
What we really need to be talking about is the flying lawnmower guy
@@isaiahrohrs2683 we should be building statues to lawnmower guy
And the lawnmower guy who doesn't give you time to move your gear and blows grass clippings all over you s#$t.
The wheeler and dealer. The guy that buys every plane he sees... then tries to sell it often times for nearly new in the box prices. They will try to sell you 6s batteries for "cheaper than you'll find anywhere else "

The Politician.
Awesome!
I laughed quite hard. We definitely need your channel in our lives
Absolutely brilliant, probably because it’s so relatable and everyone has meet someone that falls into each category. Can’t wait for part 3, 4, 5 etc 😂
i miss the rich guy, he was so fun to watch, also once he tried opening a bottlecam with his eye.
I've been waiting all week for this!

Man, that is just spot on, thanks for the awesome video 👍
I love the B roll you find for your videos. Hilarious!
You guys are my new favorite Rc channel lol. (After our lord and savior Josh Bixler of course) Keep up the hilarious content!
4:36 why does the airliner have flares 😂
The Opportunist usually has the nick name "The Undertaker".
I would love to see a vid on how to scout out the best flying site! :) Keep up the good content!
How about best sites? (plural) Top ten or so.
Even better!!

That was very entertaining, but none of the example pilot pegged me… lol 😂 😆 😝
Holy shit, you pronounced my name correctly. Love your channel🤘🏻

Fantastic as always guys. I love every video you make.
Part 3 is needed
Lol. The very first crash, the F20 going through the tree is a good mate of mine. We ripped him relentlessly over that one. 😂
im definitely the lawnmower, so i can be the speed demon without getting yelled at
Bruce admiring the new covering material there :)
You forget about the ones we don't see like the odd hours or bad weather pilots
you should do "the kid" stereotype, cause there's gotta be one
He did in the first one
Funny, funny video. The Talker, yep that's me!
I can’t believe how little most newer pilots know about repairing aircraft because they have never built anything. How about a video of how the rc hobby has changed from building to assembling.
you missed the "I have a friend" person that knows someone that has something better
When you won’t meet any of them
I just rewatched party one yesterday, perfect timing
I was the builder combined with the enthusiastic kid.
Great video! And accurate as always!
Its not a secret society. We call it a "Cabal" you join for life.

You missed the "mr knows it all....and actually knows all". The guy who rose to godlike status by the other members.
Hahahaha you hit it on the head on this one !!!!
Very funny and true! Part 3 please
The first crash video you have is my F20 tiger shark hitting the big oak tree at Weston park international model show😂😂
Damn I miss that plane!!
I love this channel!
We have a guy in our club who’s a combination of #6 and #11. It’s more annoying than either alone would be! 😂
I think I'm lucky I fly alone. How did the song go? " When I fly alone, I prefer to be by myself" 😂
wish I could fly alone but finding public open fields is pretty rare where I live
@@vracan I have a back road that is surrounded by fields, there is traffic but usually a car every few minutes, best spot I could find close to home so far
There is a (hypothetical) tier four after the guy with a trailer, the guy with a mobile workshop in the back of their customized RV.

Holy the quad fun cub is horrifying
One club near me is a county park designated as a RC field, so the county mows it. Another requires *everyone* take a turn mowing the field. So no lawn-mower power plays around these parts.
I love the Anderson Hobby trailer. It’s my LHS…
This is our field to the tee
I could see myself being the opportunist
Thanks!
Hahahah -- I recognize some of that footage 🙂
Darn it, I fit in 4 of those categories lol
WITNESS MEEEE!!!
Love it!!
Oh my god! I’m definitely number 9. Ever since I switched to exclusively FT foamies.
Those types of guys are in every hobby that is why I don't join clubs, been down that road and just got tired of it, As a wood turner I can tell the these guys abound in my hobby and my $10,000 lathe setup makes me the best in the world and your $2500 unit makes you a scrub, even though nobody has ever seen any of his projects
😂😂😂 definitely a part 3
Hey! I resemble that lawn mower part, boy!
I could think of almost all of the catagories!
Erm, that’s awkward when you match the description of several people on this list…
😂
The older guy who can build and see well enough to fly but not well enough to bring it back to the runway. This guy recently got into quads, never sets up a beeper or GPS properly, and you and the rest of the club spend half of the day....every weekend.... searching for his quad
SPOT ON😂
I legit know a guy who fits every single one of these descriptions XD
I know so many of these pilots. I'm a few of them myself. LOL!
Jet Boiz need I say more :)
I have a fantastic idea
747 with a bush kit
Im cracked up

I guess I was a builder, I would usually bring them back home in bags.
I used to be number 5 but then I got a plane that isn’t primarily sold on Amazon that could actually put out enough power for me not to have to
My clubs lawnmower is also the president
Sheeeet,,,, I did all of that 30 years ago boy's.
Funny Stuff!
@4:26…”put his throttle on a switch!!”🤣👏
Most fliers who have been in the hobby has little bit most of the categories. As I'm a flier who has lots of nice planes, but has the need to take at least one messed up plane to the field just to prove it will fly. My friends call them the cartoon planes.
Definitely don't screw with the guy who mows the grass. Without them, we'd only be flying bush planes and belly landers.
I went to my first flying feild this year a month ago and i met almost all of the stereotypes lol
We need to see the brick I mean the twin timber be turned into two airplanes
I'm literally the guy who uses a gyro but has the throttle up always. and has a "newbie" plane. I fly at a park.
I am the speed deman, I am obsessed 😁😁
I'm just in a 400mm Nothing, but I think I'll leave this hobby to the Know it all's.
Not even going to comment on which traits I recognize.
Just beg for part 3.☺️☺️
Hey Guys, great video. Could you tell me what Drone do you use to film?
How about the powered sailplane guy: he monopolizes the field for an hour doing low swooping passes over and over and over again.
Yes x 13
100% true
