    Time to go big! In today’s episode, we take your requests and make it a reality. Make a huge FT Retro Rocket and see how much power it can take.
    The beautiful thing about foamboard is you are only limited by your imagination. Using the same techniques as our smaller FT Retro Rocket, Josh designs a monster version that can go from mild to wild. As they put this new giant plane to the test, they step up both the power systems and push the envelope of this new design to the limit. Will it’s simple construction handle over 25 pounds of EDF thrust? One way to find out!
    Our passion is to help our amazing community, dream, big and do big! This design will be the first monster series made available to the public to outfit in any configuration they want and bring smiles to the faces of all those around them. With a special made to order feature that has now been added to the store, you can build your very own monster FT Retro Rocket.

    thank you Josh for sparking the love of aviation into a 12 year old boy. I am 20 now and officially a licensed pilot and wouldn't be where i am today without y'all's amazing videos setting my eyes to the sky. love y'all.

    • @sewing1243
      @sewing1243 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      I was going to say it was a "stubby" Phantom, but I've seen cartoon Phantoms drawn similar to that look in the past. FliteTest needs to build a dual EDF version with drooped horizontal stabs.

  • @jasterhsk
    @jasterhsk 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

    Retracts - yes! Not sure of the sizes but for the master's series and for the mighty mini planes for sure. I just finished the skyfx t-28 and I instantly wished it had retractable gear.

  • @thomascarmichael6760
    @thomascarmichael6760 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +9

    Yeah! Would love to see y’all carry retracts. That would be another source for those items. The hobby industry has condensed so much and older guys like myself look for reliable shops for stuff!

  • @hifinsword
    @hifinsword 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    I think landing and taking off using landing gear are 2/3rds of the fun flying RC. Any build for me would include retractable for most of the builds but at a minimum fixed landing gear. So a BIG PLUS ONE for LG.

    Lucas Crater here. Man, finally we are seeing these massive builds made available to the masses! It’ll be interesting to see how many of these show up at FF 24!
    I have a request for the next MTO monster. The Scout is my all time favorite FT plane. I’ve done all three sizes, Mini, Simple, and XL. I’d love to have a Monster Scout that uses that 4030 motor and 4-6 cells. Especially now that you have the design for the XL so that the wings are removable. Please, please, PLEASE!

  • @FarmerFpv
    @FarmerFpv 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

    This is my favorite build from you guys. I can't wait to build the big one with an actual thrust venturing EDF. I have a spare Flex Innovations Flex Jet thrust vectoring unit and the Flex flight controller. All I need is a 10s 90mm EDF to attach to the Thrust vectoring Nozzle. I bet it will hover just like my Flex innovations Flex Jet hovers if I keep the build light. I'm stupendously excited.

    Well, I have no idea why TH-cam thought I needed to see this but it was definitely a lot of fun. I didn't even roll my eyes too hard at "5200 milliamps" (which is presumably amp-hours and not actual amps?) because I know that the idiotic redundancy of "one thousand thousandths" is how LiPos are marketed.
    The sponsor segments were pretty smoothly inserted too; I appreciate a video that is well made *as a video* and not just an insight into a hobby. Although I confess I did guffaw a bit at the pronunciation of "mocha" as "mow-cha." But that's just more ammunition for my argument that English needs to lose the letter "c".
