"if you penetrate at the wrong spot, you get yourself in biiiggg trouble" 22:33 That's a Brian Phillips platinum quote right there.🤣🤣🤣
It should be on a t-shirt...
YES! You heard it here first!
Great video Brian.....as usual. I can't support your channel other than spread the word, as I'm in the UK but I have taken your advice on many occasions to keep my small fleet flying. Thanks, Pete.
Thanks Pete, and we get it! Thanks for doing what you can, and thumbs up and views help too! We appreciate you being here with us, and hope to get better world wide distribution channels ASAP since you're not alone :(...
Thanks angin!
I have to say I enjoy your videos very much, over many of the others I watch.
I had a stroke about two years ago causing my hands and arms to shake a lot.
My uncle taught me when I was 11 years old, starting with control lines a nice old ringmaster. Still have it.
Still have mainly balsa, however you are making me think foam as well.
Using RealFlight, I have had lots of difficulty with my shaking to fly.
Watching you fly and many of the tips you give have helped me greatly and now even with the shaking I can take off and land as well as do some maneuvering.
Practice helps a lot also!
Thank you very much,
Tracy
I know damn well you can still fly and probably better than myself Tracy.
These new planes with Safe mode will smooth out any shaking issues you may have. You could always try a foam trainer to start or even the umx turbo timber is surprisingly easy and flys so slow with the flaps it's a blast! They make that Timber on a larger plane as well. Let us know how you do!
Nice clean break but I'd use foam tac, uhu por, or even hot glue as they're much less brittle when dry than ca.
yes - but we also didn't use CA ;)
@@BrianPhillipsRC sorry I replied at the beginning before I watched the entire video. Very nice repair job!
😂, my old E-flite Rare Bear had a similar landing last week here in southern Indiana. Hot glue and tears and it’s ready for action again! Lol
Great video Brian! Especially the encouragement you give the newbies about maintenance and repair. If a man learns to maintain and repair he will have an extra million at the end of his life. Which he will leave to his daughter who will spend it in a season...Way it goes. Retired army and schooled on my father's cattle ranch about what works... stays, what doesn't work... goes, and don't take long deciding. Joined US Army 1973... the US Army was big on maintenance, and my prize vehicle, as a Company Commander in 7th Corp Europe, was our M35A2 supply truck... the Data plate said rebuilt in 1962, I commanded in 1990. It was rebuilt at depot. I figured it was an old WWII M35 that probably was used on the Red Ball Express, and after the occupation came the cold war and this old truck was handed down from supply sergeant to supply sergeant, and in 1962 they converted them all from gas to Diesel. So if that truck was built in 1943, it served for over fifty more years... the benefits of maintenance, maintenance intervals. Young soldiers abuse trucks; drive them to fast slam on the breaks take the terrain too rough. Never saw an M35 fail, seen plenty of failed soldiers. I am sure that old truck is still somewhere in Europe today bringing toilet paper and turkey wings to some lucky stinking dog faces. Folks, once you learn maintenance, you are good to go. You never learn maintenance, you will always throw money away. Once again, great coaching and mentoring video Sarge!!! Love and Peace in his name, Amen. Born in Louisiana, loved by Mom, disciplined by my tough arsed Dad, saved by my precious Savior!!!
I still call myself a newbe and this vid surely helps me to repair my crashed ones.
Thx again Brian and crew!
This Zero went from hero to zero and back to hero again!
Pretty plane.
Fly/Crash/Fix/Fly.....repeat.
Lotta fun watching and learning.
Well done.
100% I never miss an opportunity to crash em like I stole em - LOL ;)
man your are pumping the video's out. Thanks
More to come ;)
Total video Sir. Could be titled from Zero to Hero. I love watching your repair work. I hate that there was a crash. But all is good in the end. FMS has put together another nice looking plane. I’m not going to knock the reflex. But in the future I’d lean more towards the Spektrum Receivers with Safe and AS3X. Thank you for sharing this one with us all.
100% the SAFE and AS3X is more rock solid, but it does take a BIT more work. I've noticed the Auto-Leveling and limited bank and pitch angles are more refined on AS3X/SAFE, but Reflex makes it more affordable, and it's "good enough" for most ;)
Nice Brian, we love ya, so good to see ya again, nice flight.
My 1100mm broke in the same place. I used hot glue and it never broke in that place again. I ended up totaling it when my transmitter lost connection to it. I about cried when I picked it up in pieces haha
Nice clean house .... I'm glad you showed the repair.
Unusual for an FMS model to come damaged in the box! BUT, I had a similar, but worse experience with mine. It came in the box broken in half just aft of the canopy before the tail assembly. The box and packing and outer box were all in mint shape. but the fuse was in two pieces. I took a picture w my phone before I removed it, sent pic to FMS, but they said I must have done it. I have since repaired it and bought another fuse for a spare. I've gotten the usual dinged wing and dented fuse from shipping damage, but this was a first. Still love FMS planes, but I think I'll order them from the hobby shop so I can see it first
I'm very sorry to hear about this experience!!! I guess the story was so unbelievable, they just had to play the odds? Which plane, if you don't mind me asking?
Funniest video I've seen on this channel. I know it probably wasn't the funnest video to create. But I REALLY appreciate the laughter. 👍
Appreciate the honest “warts and all” approach of your videos.
Keep flying brother!
The 800 series is awesome. Immediately throw the 2s in the trash and use a 1350+ 3s, remove the wheels and send it! I've got a basher one and a new one (Corsairs) , have upgraded the esc and it runs 4s 1500 with a masters air screw and ar630. Turns into a acro beast!
You don't ruin props landing with no gear? I'm sure the motor is shit down but what if it stops with one blade straight down? Thanks!
@@HciContractor nah because I changed to a master airscrew 8x6 two blade prop, doesn't seem much faster on 3s than the stock prop, but has heaps more power, pretty much goes up until you can't see it haha.
Brian u maybe the first person in the world to fill a NX8 with it's max of 250 planes lol
Is there a limit!!?!?!?!??!?!?!? That's terrible!!!! What about my 1GB SD card?!??!?! ;)
@@BrianPhillipsRC they say only 250 plane limit not sure but u be the first to find out lol
Glad to see it’s still Brain Phillips TH-cam.
Your video is amazing detail and clear. Thank you so much
Hey Brian, Great video. Plane looked fantastic. Like you, I love realistic scale warbirds and have a few as well. I'm very surprised your zero flew so well with the stock motor and 2S battery set-up. I have the FMS P40 800mm version and found it was way under powered with the exact same motor and with a lighter 800 2S battery. I was trying to hand launch it and was very unsuccessful. So I installed a Detrum 2815 1100kv motor, with a 800 3S battery and a scale (9x6) three blade prop, since the factory prop is smaller than scale. After those mods, the plane flies fantastic and performs great aerobatics.
I also read several post from other pilots that found the same under power issue with many of the FMS 800mm warbirds. Some pilots try to use the factory motor with a 3S lipo, but the motor overheats. That's why I put a larger and more powerful motor with a larger, but scale prop to give me more thrust.
Thanks for the great videos!
Very nice and detailed plane
Geez...you wrecked it . I have one of those...not near the pilot you are...but mines still intact! ...not a scratch actually!
Ohhh Nooo, Snow! 😖🤮🥶Danggg It, You Broke Another One... 😜😁😎
Nice flight, great crash, good repair. Haha. Did Megan tell you to clean up the planes in the kitchen area?
Thanks! Great video!
Another great vid guys, I enjoyed watching the repairs I always seem to pick up some new information and tips.
Nice video and good flight. haha.. not to mentioned the great repair.
Yeah I do not quite like the JST connector, but for a small plane with low current draw like this plane, may be XT60 is a little overkill, a XT30 might be just nice ;-)
Happy New Year!
Yeah, and agree XT30 would be better, but I kinda hate having to use them, since I only have a couple adapters built up ;) (....and I'm lazy - LOL)
@@BrianPhillipsRC 😅
Happy New Year To you And The Camera Crew
Love your commentary!!!!
Hello Brian,arm zero great Airplane originale japan😁🔝🔝🔝🔝🔝
yes! It's a fun and beautiful little plane!
"Everybody died!!" LMFAO!!!!
That thing is sweet!
What a great little plane I love flying mine on 3s plenty of power
You should defiantly check out the Volentex A6M zero!
Great video again. Looks like you found a sleight weak point. Surprised they didn't do it with the reflex but maybe its a space issue.
The set up for safe and as3x is a huge help. Is there any recommend setup for the gains? As I'm now on a dx6 gen3.
Hope you all had a great Christmas and the weather doesn't hit you too bad in the new year. Look forward to seeing the Corsair and mustangs in this class.
Great video Brian, I'm coming from drones to airplane and now I know how to fix my form plane the right way. Thanks for the information on how to do it and what glue to use. I was using hot glue to do all my repairs. Happy new year to you and your family.
I have the T-28 in this size class. Great flyer! I have noticed that the props are quite fragile but the airframe is very resilient. Other than that, I wish FMS would use a slightly thicker plastic for the cowling because if you look at it crosswise it cracks. I'm been flying it with 3S batteries and no issue. Helps in the thin air here in Denver.
cool plane and repair,great flight
Thanks!
@@BrianPhillipsRC You and Miss CameraCrew do an excellent job! Thank you!! You've got a great attitude brother and an amazing wife! We appreciate you both
Hey guys, happy new year
Love your channel. Just thought I'd comment on seeing a gas powered plane on your channel would be awesome man. Those kolm engines are superb and it be really awesome content to see you unbox, install and build a plane with one of those engines...
Man that glueing was way more complicated than it needed to be, ca that or hot glue, 5 minutes and done😂
Ouch. Take your new planes up high and test how slow they fly before they stall. Then you will know how slow to come in to land. Good repair job.
Hope you, your wife and family had a Merry Christmas and of course have a blessed new year! Those companies need to send you the b2 soon. Love all the videos either way!
Same to you! We appreciate you being here with us!!!
You should Do A Video On The Freewing mig-29
So how much trouble have you gotten into for glue on the granite. I’ve been sent to detention a few times for that. 🤣
Ha! 😂
Please can you test the (Freewing Eurofighter Typhoon 8S High Performance 90mm EDF) when it is released.
BOONNZZIIEEE!!!!!!!
"Did you say "here in Canada"?
Expensive. Think I paid for my V2 Corsair, which is underpowered on 2s but equally hard to land and worse on takeoffs!
I would just plop a 3S in there if it's under powered for you. I bet it'll be fine. We'll do the Corsair soon, if you want to check it out.
I cannot find mucilage glue in a tube similar to your video, and I do not see a link. Can you tell me where to get it? I looked on the internet but only find it in a bottle like you would use in grade school.

Ah shucks. #2. But gotta love his channel. He is so informing.
What a coincidence
1. Since i've crash my FT speedster and cannot be repair. So i'm building my zero and almost finish building it.
2. I'm also using a venom pack 850mAh. Its seem you have a better connector which is mine is using a small cable output + JST plug. After flying, the connector seem heat up a little.😂😂
Thanks Brian and 'camera crew' for your entertaining videos. The way you share your knowledge efficiently and even whilst flying is awesome and I can honestly say I have learnt more from you than even individuals in clubs who sometimes seem guarded and afraid to share. Also your enthusiasm is infectious. Shout out to 'camera crew' too for her support to you. So far after 18 months I'm happy to fly four channel 60g foamies in the Warbird series. This makes me want to get the Zero coming out in that line soon. Laurie in the UK.
Hi Brian does the safe work with the receiver on its side I thought it would have to be flat for or the controls to work on AS3X safe cheers Rick
Just did some investigating on AS3X safe and it does support multiple ways to mount it cheers Rick never doubted you I've never seen it mounted on its side as iam new to the hobby cheers Rick
What happened to the power lines across the street from your driveway?
We paid the utility $24,263 to move the primary service (power lines) underground, from over-head. We just paid them $35,000 a little over 3 years ago to put them over-head (well, to be totally clear, we paid $25,000 of the $35,000, as our neighbors to the North covered part of it too). The utility refused to bid the underground service at the time we got the power pulled down the street - what a joke, right!?!?
We did it MORE for PPG, so I can help prevent my death in a failed landing or takeoff, but it has the added benefit of better clearance for flying RC and for beauty! That was something we didn't realize would happen...it's so much better! Just wish they would have bid what we wanted when we first hired it done...would have potentially saved us tens of thousands...
I guess no more Limbo. Haha
Pretty sure have Flaperons deployed helped put that thing into a cart wheel...one reason i never set them up on my planes..
I fly from grass - easy to remove the landing gear and hand launch it - ...
Sure will!
Would that work for snow as well? I'm not sure how you keep from breaking props? I know you cut the motor on landing but what if one blade hangs straight down?
Great video!! What’s the name of white glue you used ?
China glue ;)

@@BrianPhillipsRC thanks!
Bonnie would say she's holding out for a Zero til the morning flight....
Good stuff Brian and Camera crew. Newbie helpful for sure.
AirHammer out!!
Second thoughts?
Where i can buy it rtf?
Unfortunately, I don't believe there is an RTF option in this size class.
It is currently on sale though: bprc.me/FMS_Zero
Or you can check out the 400mm option if you really want RTF: bprc.me/Zero_400mm
Man rather watch your vids then a good movie lol about the same so I can lie
Do yourselves a favor...remove motor completely and tie all wiring back out of the way...or most will never get realignment right...especially first time builders..so much less bs to deal with..heavy motor trying fall out.
I really dislike you calling it corn hole it’s a snap roll
First one to like this one too
Well done 🏆
Extremely poor structural integrity. Outright terrible fuse & wing mount design
So you just use foam to foam and not pin with multiple toothpick for strength? Wow, I’ll have to check that glue out.
EDIT- Now I see you went back and added some toothpicks, but that glue looks pretty strong! I’ve put in pins prior to joining and then connect, but your way gives a more exact fit before pinning and avoids the slight offset when things don’t align. 🫡
