@@thelightersideofrc you gotta put an fpv set up in one of these things, not only would it be really cool but your audience would grow by alot

Absolutely excellent what a beastie. The real one derives 35 percent of it,s lift from the Fuselage so I suspect this will do the same. Looks and sounds like the real one and that climb rate just epic. Hey Chad got to know more about his plane and the process and was great to see the interaction through the vids. Bloody Awesome is all I can say 👍👌😎

@DonDegidio 3 года назад

Hi Jonathan, Awesome, Awesome, Awesome!!! Tremendous maiden. Did she have any bad tendencies? The F-15 is my second favorite jet, the F-86 my first. Have unbuilt kits of both from the 90's. When my body heals a bit, may try get them both out for building. You and Katie stay safe.

@thelightersideofrc 3 года назад

Thanks Don!😎. No bad tendencies at all! On second flight full flaps and air brake up, no elevator compensation required! Awesome 😎.

@@thelightersideofrc Hi Jonathan, Great news. Will be looking forward to that video. :-)

@victorrcjets7660 3 года назад

Great job as always, I'm glad you got your nose gear pin issue taken care of. Since you put the harder pin is it required to beef up the nose gear area? The global guys did at least get back to you about it, I did meet them at the Hemet event. Cuz they asked me to bring my l-39 down. Talking to them about starting my waiver process. I'm definitely wanting a scale get for my first turbine. Not a big fan of sports jets.

@thelightersideofrc 3 года назад

That was the response we got from them. If they supplied a harder pin the area would require reinforcement. I think it's built very well as it is so we plan on keep it as is. Congrats on starting the waiver process!

I have order the same f15 but what retracts have you got rotation struts (E ) or the f15c straight up and down (non rotation) also thinking just pulling in electrons .

@thelightersideofrc 2 года назад

Hello Dom. The retracts are the non rotational model. Also Chad (the owner) installed ER50's this past winter. Much better.

@cyridath 3 года назад

Curious as to why you were flying dirty? Was it because it was the maiden flight or were there mechanical issues?...

@thelightersideofrc 3 года назад

Once of the gear decided it didn't want to come up. so just dropped them and flew it dirty. Of course on the next few flights it was perfect.

@Hayk_knyazyan 4 месяца назад

I can see that it’s a twin turbine but what turbines do you put on it

@thelightersideofrc 3 месяца назад

At the time 160’s now it has 190’s

@MrBurnsakaRWall 3 года назад

When can we expect a follow-up video and really see what that bird can do?

@thelightersideofrc 3 года назад

Waiting for fire ban to be lifted before we fly it at the location we can again.

@ahmadfikri5525 2 года назад

is there a smaller jet size for example using 2 turbine engines measuring (x45)?

@thelightersideofrc 2 года назад

It would be a bit of a chore to find something as most of the mid size F15's are setup for a single engine but anything can be converted. If you find one that is setup for a single 100N into a Bifib pipe it should be possible.
