Congratulations on your 300k+ subscribers! That is no small feat for an RC plane channel. Your success is due to your humility, your no nonsense, honest approach and your relatability. Everyone appreciates the absence of annoying music and 77 cuts per minute editing. Other channels need to get a clue, no one wants to hear generic stock music at 3x the volume of the plane. Finally, the real key to your success is that rock of a wife, and your faith. I wish my wife was even remotely interested in my RC problem. Keep up the stellar work, please!
I bought this airplane before I had enough experience to fly it. After 6months of flying park flyers I felt I was ready. This plane is TOP NOTCH! It is 1 of my favorites to fly. I learned 3D on this plane because of how easy the plane was to fly. Love it
Awesome RC Flying Skillz Nate ! I wish there was a camera also showing your hands maneuvering the controls awhile Flying to show what terms that your calling out awhile doing it to give everyone a better perspective of you and plane controller and operation.
If you feel the need for safe mode, you haven't really learned to fly yet. Jus sayin. 😜 How do you know it's the best 3D plane? You don't fly 3D. Just havin a poke at ya mate. Wish y'all the best. Thank y'all for your videos. 👍
One of my favorite planes. Glides in safe amazingly. If I could only have 1 plane it would be this or the Night Timber. This one is easy and fun to fly with safe and the night timber is fun and I can fly 24/7 so that’s a win. Both are awesome!!! congrats 300000 congrats on the 300.👌
Very talented operator ... love the comments and the camera is always spot on with complimentary giggles behing the camera from your wife ... God bless you
I can’t believe you are just now flying this bird, it’s awesome. With the right programming you can go from mild to holy crap in just minutes. I named my the Rocket.
Bought mine yesterday after waiting almost a year for it to become available locally. Can't wait to get it into the air. Hopefully on the weekend. Thanks for a great video.
Following the purchase of an xk 127 helicopter I ordered today the kf 606 microplane which looks very fun I make it my first plane I'm like a little boy ✈️🥰😂
I feel like an old dog Barkin from the porch. I can't buy anymore planes because I don't have room for any more. So I just bark and go lay down and grumble 🤣
Lol, I am constantly selling planes so I can have room for others! We give a good bit of ours away too, if we got them for a discount or whatever. There is always the option of crashing one or two as well! 😉🥺😂😁⚓️
I just brought my self a new plane, well its a old plane but is new to me. Its the fms p51 dago red v2. cant wait for it to arrive next week. i wana learn to do snaps the way you do Nate as you really throw the planes around...is awsom to watch. DAM!! thats a good looking plane Nate.
I use mine for F3A style flying. It does amazing 4 point, 8 point, and slow rolls but flight times are 3.5 minutes tops despite very careful throttle management. That's on a 4000mah 4S. It's only very slightly smaller than my Splendor and Olympus which both use 4000mah 6S.
I would have no hesitations about grass landings. I’d confidently fly this off of our old grass field where we used to fly. If you do buy one, please consider doing so using our links to support our channel at no extra cost to you. Either way, Happy Flying my friend! 👍😁😎👍
This is the next plane on my list. I have been using my Timber X for my 3D playing, and its showing the abuse. I like to stay in the 4s 2200 ecosystem so I just have to get that one battery. Finally flew my V900! What a fun, fast plane to fly!
The 300 will fly on your 2200-3000 3s batts in a mild manered approach. It will even hover somewhat with the lower power even though this plane is harder to hover than others even on 4s as it’snless stable. It would be cool to fly it on 3s until you stock up on 4s, but you’ll never go back to 3s once ya do. The Timber X will swing either pack just the same.
@@kmatch1 You mis read friend. I am on ALL 4s. Not 3s. The Timber made it 3 seasons being used harder then it should so have to retire it. Lol Between 4s and 6s I have more lipos then most stores. Lol
@@kmatch1 Tho I have seen multiple videos of people saying the 300 is a bit squirrely in the air. Putting side force generators on the wings seems to solve that problem. It can even High Alpha with those with no prob.
@@ChainsawFPV Hi alpha is decent without them (adding elevator throw helps a lot) but I’ve considered adding sfgs. I just haven’t looked for a source for this material.
@@ChainsawFPV If you’re happy on the X for 3d you should bite the bullet and jump on the 300! The 300 is still my #2 for electric 3d flying but between the 300 and the X you’ll be happy “upgrading”! And don’t rule out the *other* choice I tossed in the mix. Low n slow are *it’s* specialty so find what fits you.
I wonder why the colors look flat, but I’ve seen others that look shiny. and a sidenote, never add any music to any videos. We want to hear the motor, and the wind lol
I'm not sure if the airfield is out in the sticks but my assumption is that the gunshot might have been somebody hunting on their land. Awesome flight btw
I’m 73, been flying for four years, destroyed at least ten planes learning…I now fly only gliders, loops, ok, rolls, only twice, third time, killed the model. I would like to try this, but social security won’t pay for my mistakes. Guys at my field can do all this stuff.they don’t embarrass me for my nerdiness
His landings are hot because for some reason he is landing downwind. You’ll notice he takes off into the wind, but lands in the opposite direction (downwind).
Been watching just to find my next plane. Flew helis and planes years ago. Just getting back into it. Still have my helicopter, it's the old school type that takes a ton of skill to fly. Amazing what's available now days. Haven't picked one yet. Just looking for something enjoyable for an experienced pilot (probably a little rusty). Does anyone run nitro anymore, or is that almost non-existent these days?
@@TheRcSaylors I am very tempted to get the Extra but I run a Futaba system which favours the Edge. I know from friends that the Extra is very good but don't know anyone who has got the Edge. I will be interested if you do have any more opinions on the comparison.
Great looking plane and nice skills. I realize it's an investment into your channel but how many RC vehicles do you have now? Must have a storage unit full also. I'll take some off your hands if you're willing to sell any
This plane is 3d specific. It will do things most others can't. I started on those little Amazon planes. 4ish months later I'm flying 3d :) but it varies from person to person
That seems like a really nice airplane that I would enjoy a lot. Being a Horizon Hobbies product, it's quite surprising that's it actually seems priced reasonably. Good job Eflite!
Great video. I only recently found your channel and you and wife sure put out good family oriented content. Can you tell me the difference between the 300 and the 340. I ordered the balsa kit model 330 but it hasn’t arrived yet. I know the foam models are more durable and much quicker to fly practically out of the box BUT as a young guy way back in time I always enjoyed putting balsa-planes together. Thanks
If you enjoy the assembly, I’d go for that because that’s a big part of the process! However, I tend to lean heavily toward flying and ease of repair, so I go with BNF foam models when I can. The plane is out of the box and in the air usually faster than I can charge the batteries (under 1 hour) and that is super appealing to a guy like me with a wife, two kids, tons of other responsibilities, filming, editing, lol… the list goes on! So I like to soak up as much flight time as I can when given the opportunity. Hope this helps! And if so, when you do order RC things, PLEASE consider clicking our links either in our description box of the video or in our pinned comment. It helps us out a lot, and every little bit adds up! Always happy to help you if I can, so please feel free to ask! Usually posting a new comment is the best way for me to see it, as new comments come in regularly, burying conversations even a day or two old 😉👍😁😎⚓️
Question for you - I’m just getting back into the hobby after several years off and I just bought this plane as my first plane back. I plan on flying exclusively was SAFE on for a while..likely a long, long while as I get my feet back under me. This plane was listed as a “level two” plane, so do you think it could be used as a sort of trainer plus? I just didn’t want to buy a cub or apprentice or something like that and then get quickly tired of it and I have to spend another $350 on a plane. I wanted something that would grow with me. Am I being pennywise and pound foolish? Or is this plane a sound investment? Side note, I’ve been training a lot on RealFlight with it, so I don’t know how much that helps…
For what it's worth, in my opinion, this seems like a really great airplane, priced well. You're not gunna really learn anything flying around in safe mode, cuz you're not really flying the airplane. Is this the right plane for you? Idk, but I kinda doubt it. I think you would have enjoyed a Timber more. They're naturally more forgiving and they never get old. Simulators are great for teaching you orientation. Best of luck. Happy landings.
@@DistinctOgre Thanks. I’ll probably be investing in a lot of glue and spare parts. LOL. I’m hoping that once I do take SAFE off I can program a lot of rates/expo in and work my way up that way. I guess I’ll find out.
@@acemechanical275 Hint: the eflite 300 (seems to actually be a 330…) will turn up a notch if you put a longer elevator horn on the servo and max it out to 45-50°. Spoilerons are a must too. THEN it’s close but but still lacks the low speed 3d finesse of the flex planes. EF High speed maneuvers rock though.
It's not the same sort of plane as the qq. I have a qq., not that great. Want true 3d, buy a skywing. True 3d planes are not good for anything else. This eight extra is more a sport or acro plane.
AB-so-loot-a-lee 💗💘 the color scheme. Some fancy smanchy sky dancing there Nate ol boy. Awesomely as Usual Great Videoing Abby. Though Nate maybe you could sorta slightly semi crash🤫🤫🤭🤭😏😏 so Abby could have a few Extra planes to choose from to fly. Which AGAIN ABBY-so-loot-a-lee NEEDS to DO.‼️‼️‼️‼️. Great plane. ⚓⚓👍💚💜💛👍‼️Abby ‼️👍⚓⚓.
@@TheRcSaylors because local hobby shops are a a lot more helpful than buying online Also hobby shops are unfortunately dying but IMO a better way to buy this stuff
Heads up - I purchased this plan 2 months ago hoping it would be an excellent 3D flyer. Well, it's not :/ Knife edge, hovering, harriers are near impossible on this plane. This Extra 300 is just too heavy to be a truly 3D capable plane. Learn from my mistake :)
so I’ve got mine and today was the 3rd flight. Something is not right. It doesn’t fly good like my other planes. The CG won’t come forward. It’s way back.
One request though.. don't call everything the next best thing (even in the tittle) it makes me almost not want to watch it. It makes it sound biased from the start and there is no comparison to last "BEST" thing. Just my 2 cents
I know what you mean, but for sure this prob the best plane he’s actually flown because I have the extra 300 and it does fly super great for what it is compared to my other 3D planes I have
Hi you should buy this rc car I guarantee is good it's a brushless one and the name is HBX linxtech the black one and brushless one it's super duper good
@@TheRcSaylors there is to many videos, since you have flown that many planes(3d) and you find Eflite Extra 300 to be best i wanna compare them to other 3d planes. With +500k subscribers i think you are reliable source. I dont want to buy something thats not good. Thanks for your help!
i have enjoyed watching your videos and enthusiasm but... this E-Flite 3D bird is a mediocre example of 3D planes. it is heavy. it does weird things at the limits . this airframe is only saved by the RX software. many of our top pilots agree. if you really like 3D flying, try something else. FMS MXS 1100mm is a cheap entry level 3D plane and much better airframe even without the awesome spektrum software. twisted hobbies or even hobby king offer cheaper and better 3D machines.
I am a 3d RC Heli flier and 3D RC plane flier and I saw plenty of 3D moves....... perhaps open your eyes and you will also see them by intentionally placing the model in the stalled position and producing 3D maneuvers from the stall.... great way to see your path ahead clearly is to walk it with the Lord and he will help you see all things in 3D Bless you all ...Amen
@@suprim-21 ok. Elfite 300 foam...RTF $350 usd. Extreme Flight or AJ 48” Edge or whatever 550 USD RTF. Kind of a no brainer really. I know of people who paid $650 USD for that Eflite Draco piece of crap but complain about 550 for a quality built airplane with quality servos, motor, esc etc etc.

Thank you! Actually, I’ve just picked up a new drone recently and plan to feature it on the channel! 👍😁😎⚓️
Super good flying Nate! I wonder if you could use your ailerons as flaperons for your landings to help slow your approach?

Wots up with the camera today???...is much darker than normal...i still watch the whole vid but is hard to see when its normally so good.

What flightime can I expect from 4S 2200mAh battery? One flight or two/three?

And if so, when you do order RC things, PLEASE consider clicking our links either in our description box of the video or in our pinned comment. It helps us out a lot, and every little bit adds up! Always happy to help you if I can, so please feel free to ask! Usually posting a new comment is the best way for me to see it, as new comments come in regularly, burying conversations even a day or two old 😉👍😁😎⚓️
Question for you - I’m just getting back into the hobby after several years off and I just bought this plane as my first plane back. I plan on flying exclusively was SAFE on for a while..likely a long, long while as I get my feet back under me. This plane was listed as a “level two” plane, so do you think it could be used as a sort of trainer plus? I just didn’t want to buy a cub or apprentice or something like that and then get quickly tired of it and I have to spend another $350 on a plane. I wanted something that would grow with me. Am I being pennywise and pound foolish? Or is this plane a sound investment? Side note, I’ve been training a lot on RealFlight with it, so I don’t know how much that helps…
For what it's worth, in my opinion, this seems like a really great airplane, priced well. You're not gunna really learn anything flying around in safe mode, cuz you're not really flying the airplane. Is this the right plane for you? Idk, but I kinda doubt it. I think you would have enjoyed a Timber more. They're naturally more forgiving and they never get old. Simulators are great for teaching you orientation. Best of luck. Happy landings.
@@DistinctOgre Thanks. I’ll probably be investing in a lot of glue and spare parts. LOL. I’m hoping that once I do take SAFE off I can program a lot of rates/expo in and work my way up that way. I guess I’ll find out.
@@gridjac
Yeah, you'll find out. 😁
Hello, witch rate and expo you advice for beginner 3D flight? Thanks
7:20 reminds me of the karate kid.
It’s good but do you really put it above the QQ300? Power wise, yes. Performance? I’ll disagree!
Nope. The QQ extra and Mamba are the go-to planes in my hangar. Eflite doesn’t even compare to Flex Innovations.
@@acemechanical275 Hint: the eflite 300 (seems to actually be a 330…) will turn up a notch if you put a longer elevator horn on the servo and max it out to 45-50°. Spoilerons are a must too. THEN it’s close but but still lacks the low speed 3d finesse of the flex planes. EF High speed maneuvers rock though.
It's not the same sort of plane as the qq. I have a qq., not that great.
Want true 3d, buy a skywing.
True 3d planes are not good for anything else.
This eight extra is more a sport or acro plane.
It's actually a rebranded FMS, with eflite electrics
@@acemechanical275 the qq have horrid quality control. I'd never buy another. I'd rather have the eflite
Are you using 4s
..cheers
Never had a plane with safe. I like to fly old school…. Maybe that is why I lose so many planes…
How did you find this compared with the arrows edge 340 which you reviewed earlier. Love to know, andy in uk.
the arrow is nice but not as solid as the eflite. eflite has better 3d structure.
AB-so-loot-a-lee 💗💘 the color scheme. Some fancy smanchy sky dancing there Nate ol boy. Awesomely as Usual Great Videoing Abby. Though Nate maybe you could sorta slightly semi crash🤫🤫🤭🤭😏😏 so Abby could have a few Extra planes to choose from to fly. Which AGAIN ABBY-so-loot-a-lee NEEDS to DO.‼️‼️‼️‼️. Great plane. ⚓⚓👍💚💜💛👍‼️Abby ‼️👍⚓⚓.
So you still like the plane. I was going to go buy one today at loca hobby shop.
Yes, but why not support your favorite TH-camrs!? 😉👍😁😎⚓️
Order using our link! That is, if you want to support our channel and what we do 😉😁⚓️
@@TheRcSaylors because local hobby shops are a a lot more helpful than buying online Also hobby shops are unfortunately dying but IMO a better way to buy this stuff
Ummm makes u wonder about his reviews seems like he really like the flex extra 300
what is your expo low and high rates
I can’t remember. However on the new one I fly 35% Expo Aileron, 30% elevator, 25% rudder. Only one rate. Happy Flying!! 👍💯😎⚓️
Abby is so right !!! lol
What is trimming and how do you do it
Trimming makes small adjustments to the airplane if it is climbing or dropping or rolling a bit on its own 👍😁😎⚓️
You flying electric rc planes only , why ?
Simplicity. He had one glow plane for a short while but gave it / swaped it, with a friend.
Heads up - I purchased this plan 2 months ago hoping it would be an excellent 3D flyer. Well, it's not :/ Knife edge, hovering, harriers are near impossible on this plane. This Extra 300 is just too heavy to be a truly 3D capable plane. Learn from my mistake :)
Hey man could I send you a plane and hand you set my 72" and it's "safe" up properly? I'll pay for shipping
even though the price has gone up too much, these are one of the best for the money.
Such an awesome plane!! It’s a shame about prices of everything going up, not just our hobby. Happy flying! 👍😁😎⚓️
That plane is only cool if it’s up close in 3d. 😂
I meant the 330 in my previous comment…sorry?
Maiden flight videos generally suck. I'd much rather see a second flight... or better yet, a 50th where you can fly an inverted harrier
so I’ve got mine and today was the 3rd flight. Something is not right. It doesn’t fly good like my other planes. The CG won’t come forward. It’s way back.
One request though.. don't call everything the next best thing (even in the tittle) it makes me almost not want to watch it. It makes it sound biased from the start and there is no comparison to last "BEST" thing. Just my 2 cents
I know what you mean, but for sure this prob the best plane he’s actually flown because I have the extra 300 and it does fly super great for what it is compared to my other 3D planes I have
@@albertg968 it looks like it flies like a big Kyosho edge 540 which indeed is fun ;) but you get my point :)
Hi you should buy this rc car I guarantee is good it's a brushless one and the name is HBX linxtech the black one and brushless one it's super duper good
Thanks for the recommendation! 👍😁😎⚓️
And what 3D planes have you flown?
Stop by our channel to see some other videos of other planes 👍❤️💯⚓️
@@TheRcSaylors there is to many videos, since you have flown that many planes(3d) and you find Eflite Extra 300 to be best i wanna compare them to other 3d planes. With +500k subscribers i think you are reliable source. I dont want to buy something thats not good. Thanks for your help!
It reminds me a lot of the yak 54 very good 3d plane @@ernestostrman5147
i have enjoyed watching your videos and enthusiasm but... this E-Flite 3D bird is a mediocre example of 3D planes. it is heavy. it does weird things at the limits . this airframe is only saved by the RX software. many of our top pilots agree. if you really like 3D flying, try something else. FMS MXS 1100mm is a cheap entry level 3D plane and much better airframe even without the awesome spektrum software. twisted hobbies or even hobby king offer cheaper and better 3D machines.
Looks tail heavy ....
I didn't see any 3D flying.🤷♂
Did we, in any way, say there would be 3D flying? Please, stop trolling and do something good with your time.
Unfortunately noobs buy 3D planes like this based on reviews by people who can't fly 3D.
I think he was doing good spirited sport flying. He never said he was doing 3d.
I am a 3d RC Heli flier and 3D RC plane flier and I saw plenty of 3D moves....... perhaps open your eyes and you will also see them by intentionally placing the model in the stalled position and producing 3D maneuvers from the stall.... great way to see your path ahead clearly is to walk it with the Lord and he will help you see all things in 3D Bless you all ...Amen
That's also not how you land a 3D plane.
There are way better 3d airplanes out there than Eflite. Aj, EF, skywing etc.
AJs are like double the price man
@@suprim-21 they are, but you get what you pay for. I hd 4 of them.
@@GolfRomeoIndia compare equally or closely priced products then..
@@suprim-21 ok. Elfite 300 foam...RTF $350 usd. Extreme Flight or AJ 48” Edge or whatever 550 USD RTF. Kind of a no brainer really. I know of people who paid $650 USD for that Eflite Draco piece of crap but complain about 550 for a quality built airplane with quality servos, motor, esc etc etc.
@@GolfRomeoIndia I agree with you but 200$ is not an equal comparison. As I said totally agree with you about quality.
