Totally ❤ this video - it's a good looking airplane AND it provides the flight characteristics I enjoy the most. Tuesday is my birthday - will have to decide between this one and a Jabberwocky. After flying your planes and then flying my Timber X, the Timber feels like I'm flying a dump truck (ha). Thank you! 👍
Such a fun plane to practice with. I only ordered 2 lipo’s with it and definitely need some more. Played a lot with travel and expo and I improved my skills every time I fly. And thx 🙏 for the glue, can’t live without it 😊
Do you happen to have your profile/settings handy you used for this plane and your TX16S? I just built one as my first 3D plane but I want to make sure I’ve got it sorted right. It was flying a little odd on the maiden today.
Just finished mine and love it however I broke one of the pieces of carbon fiber on the wingtip off and can’t find it. I would like to buy a new piece but all I see on the website is pushrods am I missing something?
This plane fly so well!!!! It gives me the feeling of being very light, a real feather!! This type of flight mode remember me a old model like multiplex funcub..Great plane!!
Sweet spot has always been 2s 450mah keep the C low like 20-25c and it will also keep it nice and light. For a 39” CY model we would recommend 3s 850mah
Just different since the 39" have an airfoil and more wight you can penetrate wind better which "can" at times make it more enjoyable for mid day wind etc. Though the 32" make it easier for smaller spaces out side. You have options :-)

@@Plydrms Yes, the 32" flies just as good as the 39", but it is lighter, a little more affected by wind, handles crashes better, and works great on 2S 450mAh.
nice job! I'm about to build it. The foam tac demo video shows pulling the surfaces apart several times. Then you let sit for a minute before the final joining. I noticed you just push it together. Does it still set up strong just pressing it together?..thanks
You can honestly handle it either way. We've observed that lower humidity can actually speed up the process. Technically, you don't need to separate the pieces; it just helps accelerate drying by increasing air exposure to the glue. Enjoy your Clik!
@TwistedHobbysIncChannel thanks! It looks like the power combo's come with different propellers. Have you tried flying with the slow fly, and "direct drive" props? The slow fly draws more amps I believe. I was wondering your preference. Thanks
Do you set up hi-low rates, expo, mixes, or whatever??? If so, any recommendations for an "initial" setup. Going to try TH as my first "foamy" airplane. Spektrum model downloads have made it easy, but want to try something else and no "safe" mode.
Great question! It really varies depending on the model and the pilot. We've seen a wide range of preferences for expo settings, so it's tough to give a one-size-fits-all answer. For your first foam model, say around 32 inches, we recommend starting with 60% expo on all control surfaces. From there, you can adjust up or down as needed. High and low rates will also depend on the model, typically around 10-20 degrees for low rates and 30-45+ degrees for high rates. These are just baseline suggestions; fine-tuning will depend on your personal preference. Keep in mind, the CG plays a big role in how these settings perform. Thanks for your time, and enjoy your first model! If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to our team-we’re always happy to help.
I put some NAV lights on a twisted crack laser. Looks kind of cool. But added a lot of weight. I think I would do it again with these lights when available.
Any thoughts on stepping up to the next size outrunner you guys carry? I’m loving how my jabberwocky flys but feels like it’s struggling hard to pull out of a hover?
I wouldn’t recommend it personally. It does best off of the stock power system due to how powerful and light it is in comparison to other motors its size. I’d recommend swapping to an XT30 and playing around with different props for more thrust before you try different motors
Hey Jim! As always, very nice build and fly video. I just ordered the new Hacker Model’s 41” Madbull Max and was wondering if you are going to be doing a build video on that (Hacker Model’s 41” Madbull Max)?? Thanks in advance!! Cheers!!
I was working off an early manual that didn't have a recommended CG. There is a battery opening on the bottom of the plane at 17:06 you can see where I placed the velcro and that seemed to be the perfect spot with plenty of room to adjust CG fore/aft depending on your battery size. I use 3S 720mAh and 850mAh for 5-6 min flight time.
@@Axoy-2 You see the flying I am giving it, at the end of the video, usually a mix of everything with some 3D stuff, and also some smooth, slow flying. If I am doing a lot of hovering, or trying to climb high to do spins, the flight time does drop off. If you are using any sort of setup that is different than mine, (heavier battery, different motor, ESC, or prop) than your times aren't going to compare. With a battery twice as heavy, the motor has to work a lot harder to lift the extra weight. still if you are using the stock power combo, you should get a longer flight time (although maneuverability with the extra weight will suffer.)
Nice build video. Two questions here : which CA glue brand are u using here, mine tends to whiten the foam and leaves ugly stains? And how do you compare this bird to the Turbo beaver? Cheers.
In this video I used the CEC Corp Thin CA. To reduce whitening, setup a small fan, apply the thinnest coat possible, and don't use the kicker. If you have high humidity, it makes the problem worse. I love the Beaver! This beast is in an entirely different class. It's bigger, more power, has proper flaps, full floating elevator... the Beaver is smaller, lighter and flies more like a foamie.
Good question, really depends. While some models already have angle thrust designed into the airframes, to accommodate for this.. Its always good practiced (if this is needed) to test for this. Once CG is set to a neutral setting, you can attempt multiple downward descent (dives) with 0 motor power. This will show you which way the model pulls with out power. Adjust accordingly and find tune if you'd like from your findings.
