The highlight was watching Stefan as the planes hit. He reacts to the first, one, then, when the second plane smashes, he just sort of freezes. He can't contain the fun, and does a little dance. It's hilarious!

@FliteTest 6 лет назад

haha sometimes you just have to lose your marbles! ;) - Stefan

@mylesspear 6 лет назад

I think that crash tops all other Flite Test crashes! That was hilarious!

@BigDiesel330 6 лет назад

It's been a while since FT made my jaw drop in a video, but that just happened. That was like watching cartoon birds hit the side of a building.

@microbuilder 6 лет назад

The originaly Stryker was the very first 'real' RC plane I ever flew back in 2005 or so, that poor thing took a serious beating and just kept going (with copious amounts of epoxy...ok, it was mostly epoxy by the time I was done with it). I prefer the look of the older version (up to the F-27C), but they all fly fantastically. Theyre known for their speed, but their slow speed ability is great, low altitude high alpha inverted passes look awesome. Think I'll go fly mine now, great video!

@ttjj666 4 года назад

Still have my f27c too Looks more like a old ratrod but still flys greatanstraight 👍

@microbuilder 4 года назад

@@ttjj666 I've been looking for a new fuselage, used to be able to get them just about everywhere, but now I cant find a single one...really want a fresh one to make a mold with, so a carbon fiber body could be made.

@ttjj666 4 года назад

microbuilder I see now they have a updated model call the f27evolution That always gets great reviews Think I’ll be grabbing one of those They actually look like a better build than the original

@wilddoktor 6 лет назад

Unintentional Synchronized Destruction, or 'USD' for short; can't beat that!! What a great video!

@parkertinsley7329 5 лет назад

I like how Stefon yells "Oh my god!" at 4:08

@zackgarcia5465 4 года назад

Dude, I just bought this plane today and haven’t even flown it yet. Then I just saw this video and freaked the hell out when I saw it Busting to pieces and saw that I could still fly it. That is awesome to know that the plane got “flitetested” and can still got back in the air

@rmdcade1717 6 лет назад

I remember when you guys would do shootouts, each of you representing a community member, and the winner would get a package of stickers or some other gear. This is a great callback to those days. It's awesome how you've kept that community focus through the years.

@av8153 6 лет назад

I've had my F-27 Evolution for a few weeks and it's easily my favorite plane right now !

@Xiphactinus 3 года назад

I agree, even on a 3S battery it’s amazing! Too snappy and too fast to be anywhere near a trainer though.

@kdobson83 6 лет назад

6:57. ITS MEEEEEE!!!!! I made it into a FT video!! Finally. Lol Well, my forum handle did anyway.

Biggest gate in the world, and they still smack into the top. This is why I love FT pilots, because they remind me that they're still human like us lol.

Wish you had Stephan flying. He has been killing it

@sNstRflyEr 6 лет назад

One flys with his fingers, the other flys with his thumbs....I've been in rc since the beginning and have seen ppl fly so many different ways, but to see you guys side by side each inputting in his own style, cool. I'm a thumb guy myself, and with top speed edf jets, not as precise as fingers, but more exciting!

@richardunderwood950 6 лет назад

This is the most fun I have seen Josh bixler have on the show and I loved it haha he had me laughing along with them. Great planes too I have always wanted to get an f27 and may seriously have to pick one up now

@davew5383 6 лет назад

That was pretty amazing that, that plane still flew after that horrendous crash. I thought for sure that it was totally destroyed. Great Video, Amazing RC Planes.

@christopherbrowder4746 6 лет назад

The giveaways you guys do are awesome! Glad to see a channel giving back to it's community in a real way, you guys do so much for the hobby and aviation in general. Y'all keep doing what you do!

@dougabel4642 6 лет назад

I know - I’m shocked that they picked me for this!!! I’ve been on the forums helping out, sharing stories; I never expected them to send me a plane for it!!!

@christopherbrowder4746 6 лет назад

Good help deserves reward. Good for you Doug, enjoy the plane, obviously you earned it! Ill have to join the forum, enlist some community help with my latest project, obviously there's good helpful folks over there.

@cbglassiii9362 6 лет назад

That double crash was awesome. A question: Are those types of planes difficult to tell which way is up? A "normal" airplane's orientation is usually easy to discern. Is that an issue with delta-wing designs?

@audigga4396 4 года назад

I have had my F27 for 12 months now and I love it. It was a bit scary at first but now I want to go faster :) Anyone have any upgrade tips. I recommend a pusher prop and change direction of the motor as the prop and prop nut comes off on 4s which can send foam in all directions!

@matad311 6 лет назад

This is the plane i need! If it can survive a crash like that I am sold! hahaha

@DavidM369 6 лет назад

Just crashed my balsa Piper Cub... badly. Thanks You Flight Test for keeping me motivated and au courant on how to's and updates while making it fun and enjoyable to watch. Like Josh Bixler says, "If you fly, you crash". One day I will fly like him. 😁.

@bassemb 6 лет назад

3:39 This couldn't have been funnier if it was staged! Bwahaha double smash! Bink, bonk! That was hilarious!

@james66872 5 лет назад

The easiest way to land a F27 is to stall the wing, then pull back on the elevator with full rates. She falls flat on her belly. Doesn’t hurt a thing

@einetwas4588 6 лет назад

The real winner is the gate. Planes look great, would be a good intro to FPV race wing

@FinleysWorld 6 лет назад

Thing looks crazy fast.

@Migueldeservantes 6 лет назад

I'm really surprised, the price is exactly 100 less than what I thought it was going to be! good price, good model, "And perhaps with out the hot doggggingggg around" it may last for a very long time..

@Migueldeservantes 6 лет назад

Well you actually have a point! and rightfully so... but unless you have loads of free time.. for some people is ok to trow those 100... to just enjoy. because one have to get up at 3;00 am to get to work. to make that big buck but have not time to invest making that 10 dollar foam plane.. hope you agree, that not every one is in the same position..

@dougabel4642 6 лет назад

I'll have to let you guys know after this weekend - Stefan just sent the plane to me, and I'll be taking it out (provided we don't have any more forecasted thunderstorms!) It's bigger and the motor is heavier than those on a Versa Wing, so this thing feels beefy...I look forward to putting it in the air! :)

@rosedruid 6 лет назад

Does it come apart to fit back in the box easily or would it become broken over the repeated disassemblies.

Did you launch full throttle? I launch at full throttle with SAFE on then immediately throttle back as the F27 gets on step.

Crespo haha what a day!! ;)

@crystal130h 6 лет назад

This video helps demonstrate one reason why the ORIGINAL Parkzone Stryker was such a huge hit -- because the airframe part was nearly the whole airplane, and it cost UNDER TWENTY BUCKS! So no big deal if you smash it up like in this video. People bought those "Stryker C" airframes like salted peanuts! (I still have one or two left in my attic) Cut some fins and elevons out of Depron or balsa, throw in the guts of the old plane (or any retired plane), and you're good to go for under 20 bucks! But now with these newer generation Strykers, it's $49.99 for the inner-fuse part PLUS $29.99 for the wings PLUS $7.99 for the nose, just to get the equivalent of the old $19.99 Stryker C" airframe part! That's "progress" for you I guess (or "evolution" perhaps). :(

@spencerpond4098 6 лет назад

One (two) of your best crashes yet

@alexdavidsantiago3955 6 лет назад

Wait, if two aircrafts are coming the smallest will give the way or if they have the same size both go to right?? You forget it!!

@JohnMark61355 6 лет назад

I enjoyed the video. I have the F-27 E-it is a fun and fantastic plane.

@maxsterling2004 6 лет назад

This was awesome! That plane is one I'm going to be looking for a near future purchase.

@grege2383 5 лет назад

Great review, I'm thinking about getting the full size or the UMX version (on the fence between the two)

@markthomas3853 6 лет назад

How does the speed envelope compares to the versa wing? That is one thing I live on that thing... I’ve got a sp f3 board on the way and I’m debating on what to toss it in... the versa already doesn’t kind some impressive wind and I think with the fc it could be something fun to let my kids buddy box with

Your channel is he ONLY one i get notifications for.Thanks for giving this PTSD stressed individual some calming peace of being able to fly!! Keep up the good work!!! And thank you!!

@RicoLfoodguru59 6 лет назад

F-27 yeah I like that airplane if I'm flying run into something you can just put it back together oh yeah I cannot wait to come and join y'all to try this out thank you for sharing this video and keep up with the good work all y'all guys are doing ✈✈✈👍

@afterburner2869 6 лет назад

I never find any joy in fucking up a perfectly good airplane. I have never understood why crashing airplanes gets these guys off.

@dougabel4642 6 лет назад

Afterburner sometimes, it just happens. And honestly, sometimes you need to laugh about it happening a little bit, or you get to the point where it becomes a little depressing. I have a mantra I’ve been teaching my father, who’s still learning to fly - “Build - Fly - Crash - Repeat”. If you crash and then go, “I broke my plane, I’m NEVER flying again!”, it takes a lot of fun out of the hobby. Every landing is a crash; it’s just a matter of how controlled it is. And at 50-60 mph through a gate, while looking through a fisheye lens, it’s kinda difficult to thread the Gates. 😂

@afterburner2869 6 лет назад

Doug Abel I understand what you are saying, but these guys habitually take joy in destroying perfectly good airplanes. Sure, planes crash and you should never let that discourage you from flying again. It’s part of the hobby. However these guys take an extraordinary amount of joy in breaking great planes.

@dougabel4642 6 лет назад

Afterburner ehhh, I think a lot of that is playing to the cameras. I haven’t seen them crash a lot in their recent videos, and this just seemed like an honest “oops” type of crash, which was kind of funny when they both impacted literally seconds apart. I understand, it’s a shame they killed 2 out of 3 of these planes, but at the same time, we get to see they’re resilient and will still fly after that “explosion”, which is a testament to its strength, and something of a plus for those out there worried that it’s a lost cause. I dunno, maybe I’m just trying to turn a negative into a positive. 😁

@dougabel4642 6 лет назад

There's a nose cone replacement for it with FPV; I looked it up after getting the plane yesterday, but it's $45, and it's only a 25 mw transmitter. For how far and how fast this plane can move, I can see that dropping out really quickly.

@oscarjan876 5 лет назад

Which battery should I use for the micro version?
