sweet vid! Thanks for the shout out:)
FliteTest of course! You guys rock
Do I sense a collaboration? Not sure I've ever seen a lady in FlightTest!
@@mtnmyke Yesss, they should do it! :)
I concur need more girls in the RC Hobby! Girls out there ...,it doesn't matter if you're big, small, tiny, tall ... everything completely melts away when you get that plane up in the air , all by yourself!.. and of course it's so cute to see a girl flying... for Christmas I'm a surprise my girl with a beginners RC plane probably the Sport Cub.. does it come in pink? LOL
What up flite test
The best feeling of flying a model comes when you're on the drive home and haven't broke anything!
even if this is broken, it's still super easy to repair :) so no worries abt it :) take it as a opportunity in learning aircraft maintenance. happy flying :)
So true!!!
@@benjalee4014 Sadly it never happened to me :)
@@rajkumarrathinamanbazhagan2375 start small and grow slowly :) u will get there sooner or later
RackwitzG amen to that
Thank you for the Video. I am 65 and have just started with RC Drones. When I first flew it I had my granddaughter with me she enjoyed it with me. Any way I had a good time an now interested in trying planes. I have been watching several starter videos and yours has been the best beginner video. Thank you
I just found you on TH-cam and watched your video on the Blade 120 heli and now this one. I think you are very coordinated and skillful seeing how well you fly these two aircraft as a beginner. I'm impressed. It's one thing when the aircraft is flying calmly but when the wind or something causes it to do things you don't expect and you can react and keep it from crashing that's another thing. That's a good pilot! Fantastic video!
After the first successful landing you had such a great smile and were so happy! I love this hobby! I wish more girls did it.
Love the videos. Not overly dramatic with unneeded fluff. Just your straight forward opinion and suggestions. Makes me want to get back into rc. Keep it up and see you at 100 000 subscribers!
Aw thanks!
I've been driving and racing RC ground vehicles for over 30 years. Recently I've gotten the itch to fly. I have looked at so many planes and wasn't sure what to get but
Thanks to you I now know what to get.
I gotta be honest - I love how proud she was at that landing.
I love the way you explain things. I have been in the hobby for a while, but it does make a difference when you break things down for a person who is trying to learn.
Enjoy seeing your excitement when you landed the plane for a beginner that's what it's all about, when you gain more experience and start doing loops and rolls the excitement gets even more intense. Good luck with the new channel hope to see more videos.
When I got back into the hobby I started with this BRILLIANT little bird and quite literally flew it till it wore out..Can't wait to get another!..Great video,and keep flying!..:)
When I learnt to fly, before any assistance electronics, I found that it's a good idea to fly a constant circuit. I did left hand circuits for about 4 sessions (days) . Then I did Touch & goes which prepare you for landing. The reason for the left hand circuits was so that when you got into trouble you had an automatic routine that you didn't have to concentrate on to recover your confidence. I learnt in 1992.
Yep, it's always good to have a plan when learning! (and afterwards!)
im sorry, but what do u mean by automatic routine? like a flight controller and gps path?
No, he (and I) just means to have a routine ingrained in muscle memory that one can fall back on when something goes wrong! :)
@@haroldnations oh ok thanks :)
For me it was the early 80s, so much has changed, a lot of tech was developed because of this hobby.
Quarantine brought me here.. I’m ordering the Sport Cub S and wanted instructions beforehand on how to fly. Thumbs up for mentioning simulator right off the hop. Thank you RC Girl. 👍🏼
Glad they did good beginner video I've been flying for about 40 years and never get tired of it that was great ✈🚁
I like how after the landings you turn to the camera in excitement.
Haha! Well...landing is a critical moment where things tend to go wrong.... Always excited when the plane makes it back to the ground safely
I e, but it oh hemstr.com
thought the same thing! RCG loving the channel thank you, and agree, landings are exhilirating, my favorite part of RC flight, keep flying!
@@RCGirl I also like to see your pleasure after landings. Greetings from Switzerland 🙂
Got my Grandson one of these - he was maybe 10 yrs old at that time. First flight, he flew it way too high and it went out of sight. We kept hitting the panic button and hoped for the best. After searching for about 1 hr, I found it sitting upright in the corner of a farmer's field about a half mile away. Not a scratch on it. This is a perfect beginner's plane.
What a fun video!! I was like cmon girl do a loop You can do it!! Very exciting video....So nice to see a beginner be honest and want to show others the learning cycle, YOU ARE AWESOME!!
Thanks!!
Thank you for all of the quality videos. Nice to see your enthusiasm for the rc hobby.
Ok, i just found my fav RC channel, RC Girl is awesome, she has this "I'm learning along with you" vibe that I love, so pleasant to watch!.
Welcome back!
Great first time flying vid.
All your stuff is very good for us rookies RC Girl.
Keep it up and thank you.
Hey RC Girl, You ROCK! Fun watching you demo these planes. I want one really bad because of you and your "I can do this attitude"! I'm an old sail plane guy here in your area. Electric flight and all the tech really helps even if you have RC flight experience. The old days of buy, build and crash was expensive and disappointing. This is soooooo much cheaper and the planes come home in one piece! It's fun to watch you as you learn different skills. Thanks for inspiration!

Great video,after watching you I've ordered one myself,I was always intimidated by planes and heli's.you have given me the confidence to try flying as I've always been in the dirt(cars and trucks),but watching someone fly is very hypnotizing so thank you very much for this video,cheers
Wow that's so great to hear! You will have to let me know how it goes!! 😀
Check out the v911 heli on Amazon. $40, taught myself to fly indoors in less than a month. I've moved onto airplanes but still love it for those rainy days.
It's so much fun. I found that the free simulators really helped with learning the controls and reactions. I had problem with orientation when the plane is further. If you care to see my endeavors,

Your amazing😁😁😁Ive been flying for 10 years and I still learned something!Keep up the great vids!
I love watching your videos and your vibe is super cool and enchanting😊
That is awesome that you are branching out into flight! I dabbled in it about 15 years ago with limited success, but last year I decided to dive back in head first. I watched a ton of Flite Test videos and learned as much as I could. I bought a Taranis radio and used it with some sims. I built the FT Tiny Trainer and was able to get the hang of basic 4-channel flight. The real breakthrough happened after I joined a local flying club where I could share the sky with folks that have been in the hobby for decades. I can't recommend clubs enough. Anyways, congrats on your successful maiden and I look forward to following along in your journey!
It's awesome, I was into rockets still am but the difference is once you have the plane, all you need is time and a field, enjoy! 👍th-cam.com/channels/cZfULPpmqyZxjOi8dfmdEg.html
you are an awesome teacher for beginners.....ill be watching all of your rc vids from now on.
That’s so freaking awesome and I like how you’re accurately detailed with everything you expose too ❤️🤙🏽
Love the introduction and video. It is nice to see a 'real' person not a pro test an RC model. I can relate to what you are discovering.
We done. Looking forward to more.
Awesome video, thank you SO MUCH for putting it all together!!
Great windy video, very informative with great flight advice....thank you for sharing ✈️✈️
NIce. Lots of wind you can tell. I always find (where I live anyways) that even on the windiest days, that early, early in the morning the wind is almost always calm and doesn't start picking up until around 9:00am so I do most of my flying early. Cheers and thanks for posting!
You go girl, thank you for this video because I'm contemplating going into the air been on the surface for about 6 years now, I know everything about the surface now it's time to learn everything about the air and then I might go to water
Looks like I am gonna get one and fly with my 13 year-old daughter, she's gonna be really excited! Thanks for the video and bravo for your channel.
She will !
Really enjoyed the vid. You do a great explaining what you have going on. So cool seeing you smile after your flights. Looks like you're having fun. Great job
Thanks for the hands-on view of your first R/C experience with that entry-level plane. That helped me great deal!
Great presentation!! Great flying!! You are very inspirational. Keep enjoying and sharing the Awesome world of flight!!!
It looks like it takes off really well. The flight seems to be very smooth. I've been looking at this one for my son I thank it would be a great plan for him. great review
That smile on your face every time you landed tells the whole story 😁
This is great instruction for beginners. The video is very understandable and helpful. This is the 4th and best video I’ve watched on this model. No one however has even mentioned the trim functions. The trim buttons must be there for a reason.
Great tutorial video good flying and the good plane start off with thank you for sharing 👍😁👍
Cool to see girls flying r.c planes way cool.
Thanks for sharing wish you all the best, if I can be of any help I've been into r.c cars, trucks , airplanes for about 35 yrs. That plane you have is an excellent choice for new pilots. God bless
I started out with a cheap Walmart RC that flew very well it was a 2ch stealth B2 bomber it was cheap and a great plane to learn on Now they have stuff like the one in your video looks like a great plane might have to go out and get one its great to see more people doing videos and getting into RC hobbies great vid looking forward to more
You take me back about 5 years, my first plane was either the champ or the cub, since, i now have a 3 rd champ and same cub. Now you will be looking forward to flying larger aircraft. After my cub I moved up to a 36 inch low wing civilian. Which was almost identical to my new 50 inch cherokee from h h. It flies as easy just need more space. Continue to fly, new subsbr
love the candid quality of this video
Nice flying. I have moved on to hot rod quarter size planes since i started flying 30 years ago. Some of my planes cost what a cheap car costs. But still get so much joy out of my little front yard fliers just like that little model your flying. If it flies i love it. Nice flight
You did very good girl. Keep it up
So happy I found this. Great video -Thanks!
Excellent break-down, as always! :)
Nicely done RC Girl. Thanks.
That’s an awesome plane, I’ll put this on my wanted list, I just ordered the trainstar, but give it a few weeks I’ll learn to fly with that and teach my little girl then we can move on to the 4ch planes.. you did great for your first flight too, happy rcing 👍
Very cool video on learning planes! I've been wanting to learn them myself but they seem extremely intimidating compared to ground vehicles. I might try one of these out. Thanks for sharing! You're awesome!
Should be everyone's first plane for sure. I have 50+ planes and I keep my beat up cub s hanging on the wall as a reminder of where I began. Great stuff girl.
Nice. I'm amazed at how well some of these little planes can fly. Subbed.
Just came across your vids. Nice job. Great plane to start with. Its still one of my go to indoor flyers. FT is a GREAT place for info and resources. Happy landings.
Hi? My name is David from Gainesville FL. I'm new to the RC planes hobby! Really appreciate and enjoyed watching your videos on TH-cam. Thanks so much in helping me choose a new hobby zone training plane. Best regards from the sunshine state.😎🙌🎮
Really good video. Great explanations. Just enough detail.
Your good at this stuff, thanks i am about to take my plane out soon for the first time. This was real helpful.
Thanks for sharing the video!!good job love your videos!!!
Great video! I've always wanted to try RC Planes. Great first flight. Thanks for the information.
Was wondering about this plane. Thx for the video
I love the quick spin after you're first two landings and the big smile.
AWESOME, Thank You for video
Great video, 40 years flying & I own 6 piper cubs incluing this one.
Awesome video been looking for a good starter Thanks awesome video
Great video. I have a basic 3 channel park flyer trainer now. After I gain skills with it I plan to move up a step. After watching your video I think this is the one for me.
Thanks. I've been interested in this for a long time.
Great stuff. Thanks for the free education
It is first time i am watching a girl doing unboxing of a rc plane. Nice video, cheers 😊.
I have the sport cub s also love it. Nice plane to start on my first plane too . Love the video great job !!!
Thinking about dipping my toes into RC planes, watching my first flight video, and loving it! From here it looks like a small directional breeze could be helpful, it really slows the plane going against the wind, which should make landing a bit easier. (I think) Looks to be an entertaining hobby, and much easier to learn on compared to the nitro RC planes my father flew when I was a child over 30 years ago. Thanks!
When I first started watching your videos I was very impressed with your professionalism and thought to myself this gal is a Miss America I have been flying for 18 years I'm more into warbirds anymore and when I seen you fly the first warbird I changed my mind you have graduated from Miss America to Miss universe you are awesome RC girl I really enjoy your videos also your laugh is kind of cute also when you land. LOL looking forward to more videos
I just got one for my birthday and wanted to learn how to use one great video too
That was cool, good job demonstrating this plane. I’ve been thinking of getting one, I guess I will after watching this. 👏👏👏
I must say you are lucky to have this type of space open for this type of random go to an area flying. I have 20 planes and I dont fly as much anymore because of the planning, the packing and the going 40 minutes one way to fly. Its why I have moved mostly to freestyle quadcopter FPV flying.. Great vid and cheers.
I just ordered this form Horizon Hobbies, thanks for the video, I tried to fly my new Scale Cessna 182 but im just not ready for that, this plane will help get my skills more fine tuned. Great demonstration !
I like the planes that have anti crash tecnology it helps people who are 1st timers and slows jerky motions that would cause a plane to crash up to fast down to fast great way to learn keep up the airplane videos as you go more advanced
R/C planes have come a long ways since I first got into it many years ago. I use to tell beginners, try to start with a larger plane (easier to see) & not to fly when windy. But now, many small planes have the new radio stabilizing system. Easier to fly in wind. Nice Video.
I'm telling you, it's fun in the wind once you get over the hump so to speak lol, watch my video from crash to controlled(somewhat😂) flying
th-cam.com/channels/cZfULPpmqyZxjOi8dfmdEg.html
I love your great compilation of the planes and you too. Looking gorgeous...Keep it up.
Great job. Really enjoyed the video
Refreshing, and a great landing !
Great video! It’s great to see women excited about RC! Love it ! 😃
Very interesting!
You have a passion for what you do and that is commendable,well done nice little flyer.
Thanks I was thinking of saving for this plane now I will great vid
Now, that is just too kool. I'm a total novice to this rc plane stuff, but it seems like a lot of fun. Thanks to you and your video, I'm going to get the same plane. I have a DX8 controller and will bind it to that. I have a "little" experience flying drones (DJI Spark and, my favorite, a Parrot ANAFI). Thanks, again for a great video and your presentation is so nice.
Thanks, have fun!! I'm 6 months in now and already 5 or 6 planes in 😆
lol i got this plane for my birthday, i looked up how to fly a rc plane, and this was the first result thanks for the little review
Its great seeing women enjoy toys just as we men do. Thanks for the video
Great video ! I have never seen a new pilot land anything right at their feet ! Your Amazing !
I like your presentation and attitude!! Just subbed!!
I bought this one...also ended up buying carbon cub s+ as well...fun planes
Thanks for the instructive video. I'm pretty new to RC planes and have been flying a Night Vapor in a gym. I'm wanting to try flying more of an outdoor trainer and considered the little Cub, but thought it would struggle with wind. So, I bought a bit larger UMX Timber that runs a brushless motor. Have you flown this plane and, if so, do you have any suggestions about doing so? Thanks for your thoughts ...
Have the same plane trouble is it's still in the box over a year now, seeing your video gave me the courage get out there and fly it thanks...
Good job rc girl I'm a beginner in the rc planes have a lot to learn great video!!!
Thanks! It's a fun (and challenging) journey
such a great plaine for everyone
Good job! Enjoyed the video.
Nice video thanks for sharing..
Thanks for the video! Respect!
10 Great Video for learners and beginners lots of good inexpensive hobby grade stuff to be found.
Thanks. I just bought this plane and you gave good video on flying it. I do have the eflight Apprentice 15e. And I can fly it great. Just can't land it. So hopefully this plane will give me the confidence and skills to land my Apprentice.
Awesome - good luck! I know you can land it!!
Very nice video. I really enjoyed seeing the 2nd landing, and how happy she was the plane was still intact . I think of my first efforts to fly Cox .049 powered 2 channel planes way back when. I got good exercise going hiking to look for what remained of the plane. It is nice to see people taking an interest in the magic of flight.
Your videos have really helped me, I was skeptical at first how a game could help, but it really does!
I just started, love it, live it
