I'm very thankful to both of you for having introduced me to this incredible world of RC airplanes! Keep up the good work and please continue spreading this hobby!!!
Just discovered Samm's videos. I am high school teacher and am diving into the RC world myself. I am hoping to learn enough so I can teach an elective class called "wheels and wings". I hope that Samm's family knows his son's knowledge and ability to simplify and share that is still living on. Samm's videos are better than everything else I am finding out there. Thanks much to Samm and mom and dad for raising such a good son. I will be using some of his videos on RC planes to share with my students. I appreciate how the family's faith in God has given them hope and peace. Keep the faith!
I just flew my homemade rc airplane for the first time yesterday. It took me countless times, so much so that people laughed at me, but I did it. Thank you for all your detailed explanations and projects, you haven't only inspired me, but countless others. Thank you.
rip sam :( i keep coming across his videos while trying to look for rc related stuff and getting sad as im reminded of him, at least he left a great legacy behind tho, still entertaining and helping people years after hes gone, more than i could ever wish for lol
Used this motor www.headsuphobby.com/HURC-300-Blue-Wonder-1400kv-Brushless-Motor-G-272.htm and an 18A ESC, 9g servos and this same radio system all used in this video
+Samm Sheperd (SNRS) The CX10 has been out a while now. It's a great learning quad. I just wish they would have a cheap one with 3 axis (acro) on it to learn with.
Rum Ham By pressing down on the right stick, you enter flip mode. The transmitter will beep and you can push it forward, back, left or right and it will flip that direction by itself. You can also cut the throttle mid flip to force it to flip multiple times, though recovery is not guaranteed.
Cant thank you enough ever for gettting me into this hobby. after watching your videos i built my first flying wing. Still cant believe you are gone. i never met you. RIP
FINALLY!!! THANK YOU!!! It's amazing how overwhelming RC aircraft can be to someone without an electronics background. Manuals often make assumptions that you have a working knowledge of this stuff. Not always so. You have given me a starting point. I appreciate it! Now I can get to the model-making part! 👍👍👍
10/10. I was really lost, and when I saw this it helped me understand RC very well. I've never really seen this channel, but from this video, I can tell it must've been great. R.I.P. Samm.. 😔
Love building mechanical stuff and have been doing it for years but never did much with electronic. This was so very clear, understandable and helpful Samm. Thank you!
I like how it just gets right to the point and doesn’t go into anything else that people who want to start in rc don’t really need to know if they aren’t studying for a test.
This is perfect! I have been wanting to start scratch building rc planes for a while but have been a bit confused about the electronics. This answered many of my questions. Thanks a lot!
***** The only other question I have right now is about LiPo batteries. It is my understanding that they should not be discharged past a certain point. How am I supposed to know when they reach that point to ensure I don't damage them? Do I need to get a multimeter to check them?
Rum Ham Great question, LiPo batteries are annoying because they won't let you know when they are dead. Once they discharge past 80% of their capacity, or about 3.0v-3.2v per cell, they start to damage themselves. But since most ESC's come with a low voltage cutoff feature these days, it's not quite as important. But a good tool I use is this one www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-RC-Lipo-Battery-Low-Voltage-Alarm-1S-8S-Buzzer-Indicator-Checker-Tester-LED-/271746517929?hash=item3f455acba9:g:MzYAAOSwYGFUvRrP It plugs into the balance plug and tells you all the voltages, and you can set at which voltage to trigger the alarm, it is VERY loud for such a small thing. If you wanna be extra nice to your batteries, set it to like 3.4v, or you could push them down to 3.0v if you really want, just don't leave them there for too long.
Very nice presentation. I’ll be looking for more! I’m a recently retired automation engineer and have been accustomed to good product and systems documentation. I am not seeing anything like that in this field, so good videos are especially appreciated. Thanks!
The most useful video i have found by far on these components! I am 15 and want to build my own rc plane in the holidays with my friends so this is a great help.
Thank you so much, before this I had absolutely no idea how connecting all the servos and motors would work, but now it is all very clear and I plan on making my first plane soon :D
This is what I am searching for more than 5-6 years which when I was 9 and now 14 years.youre very helpful thanks sooo much you solved all of my problems about this remote controlling from a car to a drone and even anything higher
+Samm Sheperd (SNRS) Great for me I guess! I also have a question, are you able to change the channel which your control works at? I've heard about "crystals" but I'm not sure :S
***** Currently, 2.4GHz is what everyone is using. With 2.4 GHz, the Tx and Rx are connected digitally and don't need crystals. Before 2.4GHz, it was 72MHz, with that system people would have to use a matching crystal in the Tx and the Rx. there were only a certain number of different crystals so people had to make sure two people weren't using the same crystals. These crystals were named a channel. What the crystal actually does is tune the radio into a specific sub frequency. like 72.790MHz. 72MHz was also kinda glitchy, required 8 AAA's and had really long antennas. So the new 2.4GHZ is pretty great.
Holy sghit, where has this video been all my life? This is exactly what I have been looking for, a great breakdown of the required components and what they do / how they fit together. Thanks a lot!
Awesome video! I bought a cheap drone at a thrift store for 2.00. It took me a few days to learn how to fly it. Now I'm planning to build a decent one. Your video has helped me big time. Awesome job. Thank you!
Damn. I'm just getting started in this RC hobby and found this video extremely helpful. I was going to leave a comment to say thank you but found out that the author was no longer with us :(. Hope he finds peace knowing that he helps a lot of people.
Guys guys, for the first time in my life I heard an American say solder instead of sodder! No but seriously, great video - I thought there might be more to this, but now I know there isn't, I am far less hesitant about buying this stuff to make my own scratch built plant or glider! Also I'd like to add FPV. If you are reading this (despite it being a relatively old video) I would be very interested to see 1) a video on how to build a foam plane/hand-launch glider 2) how to install the cheapest and most effective FPV system on said air vehicle. (I wrote this comment halfway through the video and I've now seen the links, just thought it might be helpful for others in the same position as me!)
WOW!!!! THANK YOU, VERY MUCH, SAMM, FOR THIS HELPFUL, BASIC REVIEW OF THE ESSENTIALS, NEEDED TO GET STARTED, IN PUTTING TOGETHER AN R/C SYSTEM! GOOD TO KNOW!!
What is the best racing quad for beginners on a budget. I need the whole fpv setup goggles controller and quad and should I start with a whoop and if so which. There are so many options I'm at a loss because I don't have a big budget all at one time but I need all the stuff any help is appreciated. Thanks for the vids they are a help. Should I get one an all in one like the eashine 130? Or the assasin 180 which has the quad controller and goggles?
Excellent presentation. I'm looking into swapping out the brains of an old Roomba to make it RC controlled, and this was a great jumping off point to help my basic understand and point me in the right direction.
Dude, you have the greatest youtube channel I have seen quality wise, at least for your budget (not saying it's low or anything). As soon as I finish high school this year I'll start trying stuff
Hi im from germany making my education as an Electronics technician for automation technology , your video is very inspiring and i cant wait to start creating some crazy machines.
Just came across this video as I was at a loss for how to finish my project. Thank you for such a simple but information filled video. Rest in peace Samm
Your clear speech is the best on youtube. I haven't seen such a clear instructional video in a while and your making me want to spend money I don't have:') Good job, please make more videos!
I’ve done this before. I’ve built my own aircraft. But I had to come back to this video because I just got a freewing f22 8s pro, and the thing is way bigger and way more powerful than your typical homebrew aircraft. It’s got a bigger motor and consumes considerably more power than an Xmaxx. Xmaxx batteries won’t give me 5 minutes of flight. I hope this video stays up for all time, because I doubt anyone could explain it better. Your 30A 3s 4 channel planes are one thing, but a 150A 8s 6+ channel with a 90mm EDF producing 6kg of thrust is another thing entirely.
Many of us remember you, Sam. This VIDEO of yours has remained a "classic". You're life was cut short and we, and most of all your family, continue to cherish your memory. I, for one, wish I had met you in person.
Thanks so much for making this video! I'm currently building a 250 FPV quad and just got a Tactic Ttx650 radio with the same exact receiver you use in this video. Up until watching this video, I was confused as to whether or not I had to use a separate battery just to power the Rx. Your video cleared this up for me!Knowing that my ESC's have a BEC and that I can power everything including my Rx with just one battery is a huge relief! I searched high and low for any videos that featured the Tactic receiver and how I'd go about having to power it and luckily your video popped up in my feed. Thanks so much! 😃
+Iwillsayyes1 glad it helped. I plan to make a similar video on the subject of "quadcopter parts for noobs" and "FPV for nubes" but for now I have to tell you that the ESCs used for quadcopter a nowadays don't have BECs because it's a bit silly to have 4 of them. Instead they put a BEC (or 5v output) usually on the PDB (power distribution board). I love my tactic, but as far as I know they don't have any receivers with PPM or serial output (one wire for all channels), meaning you'll have to use PWM (one wire for each channel) which is fine.
Thank you so much for doing this video! I am a complete noob when it comes to this stuff, but ever since I was a kid, I always wanted to build an RC plane from hand. I would really appreciate it if you do more videos like this!
Thank you sooooo much. I have recently fallen in love with DIY RC planes that FliteTest makes, so I wanted to try it. I hopped onto amazon, and being a computer guy, I thought, "How hard can it be?" Very, apparently. All the other TH-cam videos covering this are vague and aimed at mid-level creators. Your view taught me what I need to know to make RC planes.
Brilliant video, the speed controller supplying both power to the receiver and receiving the signal was the thing I didn't understand and probably what confuses most people at the start, I initially assumed a second battery would be needed.
Two questions, how would you connect multiple servos/motors into one channel, like how when you roll in a plane one aileron goes up and the other side goes down, but that only happens in one movement of the transmitter, not 2 different buttons. Also how do you connect the transmitter to the receiver wirelessly?
i just built a drone with all the relatively modern parts and i totaly understood that, but i also got a box full of old spare parts from a friend who built drones like 7 years ago. and man... these parts are soooo different nowdays i had no idea what actually was in that box. the video helped a lot to understand what i'm having in that box and inspired to f*ck around and find out a bit more with all these parts
Excelente vídeo e dicas dá hora. Principalmente para quem está começando nesse hobby do RC. Triste saber que o Samm já não está mais entre nós; que você descanse em paz amigo
R.I.P. I build a plane for school right now. And i will be watching many videos of him. Its somewhat wierd to watch someone dead :(. But he really is inspiration for me. Legend ❤️!!!!

Also how do you connect the transmitter to the receiver wirelessly?
I think you would put one control on the remote to a bunch of channels on the receiver

This was very helpful for a total noob. Thank you very much. I am sad to discover you are no longer with us, Sir. Tragic.
i just built a drone with all the relatively modern parts and i totaly understood that, but i also got a box full of old spare parts from a friend who built drones like 7 years ago. and man... these parts are soooo different nowdays i had no idea what actually was in that box. the video helped a lot to understand what i'm having in that box and inspired to f*ck around and find out a bit more with all these parts
He won’t see this comment he died 5 years ago in a horrific crash
Dude! *That sled* was 😎 *awesome!*
I've been trying to figure out how all these parts fit together and you've got it all in one succinct video, A++++
Excelente vídeo e dicas dá hora. Principalmente para quem está começando nesse hobby do RC. Triste saber que o Samm já não está mais entre nós; que você descanse em paz amigo
You are a great person. thank you so much for this wonderful idea.god bless you.
R.I.P. I build a plane for school right now. And i will be watching many videos of him.
Its somewhat wierd to watch someone dead :(.
But he really is inspiration for me.
Legend ❤️!!!!
