This is the flight test that got me into the hobby, reminds me of the times where Peter and David were there! Keep this up, it was awesome!

@booggieman2u 2 года назад

Ditto lol

@Alfie-jr6pc 2 года назад

I started getting into it when josh and josh made the beginner basics series😂as soon as I finished the season I went and built my first plane and brought one of horizon hobby!

@joshuawfinn 6 лет назад

Love it! That Edge looks to be the best performing plane y'all have yet released!

@northtexasskies3243 5 лет назад

Also the most complicated

@Mike_Rogge 5 лет назад

you guys do amazing work. your high-end plans cost a quarter as much and preform twice as well as similar options. thank you for trying so hard to make this sport more accessible to everyone.

@rmdcade1717 6 лет назад

Love the look of this plane. I'm still in the beginner stages myself, but I've got my eye on this design for a future build.

@laneboysrc 6 лет назад

Amazing kit, Andres is just brilliant! It is mind-blowing what one can do today with simple foam board. Would be great to see a Video of the design process, how to make choices in 3D that can later be cut out of foam. You guys rock!

@zincyellowmach1523 6 лет назад

This is just plain genius, I can't wait to build it!! I'm super excited to see a little more complex airframe coming from you guys, the others have their place but this is almost as good as balsa! Bravo!

@helloman1976 6 лет назад

Thanks FliteTest for all you do! SPREAD THE LOVE THROUGHOUT THE SHOP AND LET THEM KNOW RU-vid APPRECIATES THEM!!!

@robertrejano4419 5 лет назад

I built and flew mine earlier this week. Scratch build style. The motor I had on hand was a little underpowered but it flew amazing. Thanks so much for the plans.

GENIUS! Absolutely excellent!!! I can’t wait to build this!! Well done, gentlemen! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

@danielhowsare778 6 лет назад

Awesome that you guys are integrating 3D printing into your designs and making the .stl files available.

@martinlagrange8821 6 лет назад

An awesome design, huge congrats on its successful release, its fantastic ! Two things I'd love to see : The P-40 in the background of shot coming out - it looks wonderful ! And of course waiting with bated breath for the 'Porco Rosso' Savoia S.21 !

@WindCatcherRC 6 лет назад

I absolutely LOVE this plane!!! Thank you Andres for the design and FT for bringing it to us. I'm now heading over to the FT store to make the purchase. :)

@phantomhck 2 года назад

This is my first plane build and I'm hoping to finish it and fly it soon. Great work!

@LineTwist 6 лет назад

Awesome flying cant wait to build it and fly it great job designing it.

@TheHarberHangar 6 лет назад

Great to see you all last week. Can't wait to get my kit in the mail and try my first 3D plane! :D

@Norminal1 6 лет назад

Purchased2 of these yesterday. Can’t wait to build and fly them. Looks amazing guys. More 3D planes in large scale would be great.

@daryl9237 6 лет назад

What an amazing plane! Nicely done guys!

@markm5479 5 лет назад

Andres is such a Badass builder, the Ft 540 is going to be the next plane I build... NICE JOB GUY'S...

@qflight9851 6 лет назад

Andres is THE FUTURE!! Man, he designs the coolest planes (I wanna see a Hughes H-1 designed by Andres next!) and is so natural on camera, and clearly has fun with it. It really comes across and makes it so fun to watch. I guess I'm building an Edge 540 now. Andres - Hughes H-1. Seriously dude.

@dukejet6997 6 лет назад

@hotgamerboy6240 6 лет назад

I wish I had as much space as you guys did to fly, that's the only thing that keeps me from getting into the hobby

@edh7620 6 лет назад

Far out, considering how the ft3d flew this is such a different machine, you guys make it look effortless to hover and the flat spin was superb

@laytonpratt 6 лет назад

This is awesome

@MarceloBenzaquen 6 лет назад

Hey guys, great job!!!! I love that plane. If I'm not mistaken that 3D design was done in Fusion 360 judging by the screen @1:44, could you please comment on how do you export the faces from Fusion 360 to a 2d CAD. Thank you guys for the great work you're doing.

@andycullen9311 6 лет назад

Awesome guys! I was looking to build a 3d plane about a month ago, and of course the first place I looked into was flitetest. The FT3D seems like a great aerobatic plane, but it's just a little behind the times as far as modern 3D birds go. This is basically exactly what I was hoping to find, and it's awesome to see you guys put something like this together. To anyone out there planning on building one of these, keep in mind that your standard cheapo 9g servos that we all know and love are going to have no chance against the forces required to actually fly 3d or especially XA on a plane like this. You're going to want at minimum a metal gear servo, but I would run a digital metal gear servo that's capable at running at 6v for added speed and torque. 3d flying is amazing and doesn't have nearly the following that it should. Search for "Jase Dussia" to see what a true master can do.

@VWVENTOFAN 5 лет назад

Ein richtig cooles Modell! Hat mein Bruder sich auch bestellt, den FT Tiny Trainer haben wir schon zusammen gebaut und geflogen sind beide begeistert. Jetzt kommt der FT Edge 540. Flite Test ist cool.

@demacherius1 6 лет назад

Please give us the original Fusion 360 Plane so we can make the inner part and make it a 3d printed 3d Plane. That would be awesome

@T81RD 5 лет назад

3d print labs has the plane designed to be 3d printed

@TanmayChhatbar 5 лет назад

Google Drive slash open?id=1UjO-gFzFgtCH4BgXDKUynPMO39cQ65ON I've tried to reverse engineer the plans as close to the design as I could.. Also included RF7 compatible and tested (but tuned by an amateur) model. Hopefully, the folks over at FT can reach a wider audience who'd be interested in using this model..

@SkyFireDrone2022 6 лет назад

Wow, that is hella cool. What a design, and you’re how old?! You got a future, dude 😎

@lwells9930 4 года назад

@BadIdeas101 6 лет назад

I watch these videos for the dope planes, but I always come back for those little funny edits like the "deal with it" scene and the scream from the bird of time video

@dominictheace8235 6 лет назад

Omg so hyped for Flite Fest! If anyone here is going like and reply!

@CarminesRCTipsandTricks 5 лет назад

LOVE how Anders likes to favor fatter Fuses... Really gives a "non Foam Core Board" presence to his designs. I'm wondering if, with minor tweaking, I could turn this into just a docile pattern flying Plane? I'm Old and Arthritic, 3D is not in my envelope!! But I love the look of the Airframe... Carmine ✈🚂🚙

Andres is no longer a boy. Andres a maaaaaan

@properlytwisted2172 6 лет назад

AMAZING!!! :)

@bejokaryo 5 лет назад

Please make the mini version for this! I REALLY LOVE FLYING 3Ds!

@Technicallyaddicted 4 года назад

You know that you could just take the plans(available free because flitetest is awesome) and scale the print up or down for whatever size you want, but tbh this is perfect size. Small enough to fly in a park, but large enough to see.

@aerialhorizonrc7827 6 лет назад

This guy is definitely a creative genius to turn a foam board into a scale looking 3D plane.

@aaronschroeder483 6 лет назад

Can you guys do a video on how you all painted those planes? Looks like more than just some spray paint on those bad-boys!

@Hoss1919 4 года назад

@_droid 6 лет назад

Since there is already a 3D file I'd like to see this turned in to a 3D printable model. I know 3D Lab Print has the Zivko EDGE but that one is more aggressive (smaller wings, faster, etc) than this one. Have you guys tried printing a whole plane yet? I'd like to follow your experience.

@theonlynatedawg8563 6 лет назад

Love your vids keep up the great work guys

@user-nn1pc7ob8z 10 месяцев назад

Очень классные модели! Спасибо что вы есть!

@alexkovats4795 4 года назад

where are the thingaverse plans for the winglets? Great job though. I'm Getting it.

@contagiousingenuityagency5273 6 лет назад

Wow, thanks guys, awesome design. I've always dreamed of building a descent 3D plane and this is it! Totally on my 'to-build' bucket list. By the way, what kind of paint did you use to give it this nice glossy finish?

@Technicallyaddicted 4 года назад

Got into flying with my dad. It was off and on because this hobby is at the upper limits of what my income level can afford. Regardless I was able to get bored of v tail 3ch. We lost everything in a fire, and he died shortly after. Havent flown in 8 years. Now I have enough to do it on my own. I feel confident that I can have authority over this plane in the air, and I finally got my frsky x10s. Can I come fly with you guys? I'm just a few hours from cedar point. It would mean a lot to me. I'll be flying one of these, on one of your 35A radial power packs. I put forth all the cash needed, and I'll even buy pizza and beer for those who partake(not me 5 years). It would mean a lot to me if you said yes.
