Freewing - A-10 Thunderbolt II - Unboxing Video! 

WOW - I didn't realize I had any sort of "exclusive" on this - LOL! I'm glad you watched. My unboxings are kinda long and boring (at least I think) but they're usually uncut and super detailed, so no "funny business" covering up for manufacturing screw ups or shipping damage(s). I hope you might come back for more ;) I've got a new series starting later next week that will be pretty cool, if you think about checking back in. I suspect you'll like it if you're in to EDF jets. Good luck with your A-10, it's one of my harder planes to LAND...flying is just fine, but there's just something about this plane that demands a PERFECT landing. It's beautiful, and it's kinda HEAVY, and it's kinda got a lot of crap mounted on ALL the sides, making it tough to transport, when you do finally get her ready to head out to the field, so make some plans as you assemble her, since you might want to make some of the antennas removable possibly...other than those things, she LOOKS good, and flies good...just don't forget to STICK the landings 100% of the time - LOL ;)

your welcome!

I don't know anything about flysky. I get something I like, and NEVER change...so don't let me stop you from enjoying something different. I just happen to be a Spektrum guy. Keep in mind, as it pertains to radios, and receivers, keep withing the same DSM, DSMX, or other protocol, and then you'll be able to use whatever transmitter with whatever radio... Thanks for watching!

Sorry, it ended up being 12 (I think). I misspoke, sorry! P.S. All the ordnance glues on to the wings, except for a HUGE "drop tank" that is magnetically attached in the middle...soooo cool!

I was actually thinking about buying two of these and replacing them in my Airbus A320, or maybe even the A330-600???

That's why I'm so torn as to how to go about fixing it. The spare parts are cheap enough, but I can't replace my fubar'ed nose gear box, and then even if I can fix it to function properly and fly, the plane will never have the "super scale" appearance that I love about this plane.If you got the cash, order them so you've got them ready to respond to a crash, right?I suppose you've seen my new A330-600 videos from last night by now? If not, check them out...great takeoffs, passes, and landings - the trifecta!Thanks for watching and for comments!

Found all the answers to these questions on one of you other videos. Did the heat melt any wires?

NOT YET - I had forgotten about that problem, but I definitely had that concern! I think that'd make for a really bad ending to a flight... Thanks for watching!

Sorry I missed the answer. We've been upgrading out internet this weekend (and all week too...fighting intermittent issues) so I've been away from the computer more than usual. I'm glad to hear you saw the info you needed though!

The ESC leads don't usually end up matching the colors of the Brushless motor leads. Basically, the brushless motor is an AC motor, and there are 3 poles. If you hook it up "wrong", then you just have to swap any two of the three wires and the motor will rotate the opposite direction, as before. This is a common issue. In fact both of my Supreme-Hobbies planes came with the EDF's both wired wrong, but the colors matched...lol - Chinese QA, right?!? I don't even remember hooking up those wires, but I assume I must have done it... Just give it a shot. Make sure you test your rudders before getting it all glued together. I had a bad rudder servo on the one vertical stabilizer, and didn't check it till she was assembled...then I ended up having to work it out after the fact. Actually, it wend fairly smooth, with VERY limited (and only superficial) damage to replace it. MotionRC took care of the part, as they always do when things like this happen, and I had it fixed in a few minutes and lots of stress!

Thanks for the help. I had a bad aileron servo and a bad retract. Motion sent the parts out fast.

Nice! They do a great job at MotionRC

MotionRC (motionrc.com) - Plane $239 + $4.85 for Flap servo + $4.85 for Reverse Flap servo (shipping included), then I bought a Lemon-RX (lemon-rx.com) seven channel receiver with stabilization and dual diversity antenna for ~$28 shipped.

You will be buying it from Hong Kong, just like me, provided it's available. Shipping is expensive... You can buy the Supreme-Hobbies Airbus A320, or the Supreme-Hobbies Airbus A330 from the following sites... www.rc-castle.com www.hobby-paradise.com

This is a very recently updated product for Freewing / MotionRC. The 6 Blade is the old style, while this one is the "new" style.

Brian Phillips I am ordering my A 10 Thuesday at Freewing. don't know with 6 or12 blades....

I'm not 100% sure you'll have a choice, but the 12 bladed edf's will sounds super sweet! They have the remarks listed in red on their specs list since it's a new feature

agree making a video at least put it the right way !

+Tod Mosser good video other wise

I made the video, and after uploading it, having proofed it on my computer before upload like 99.9% of all the rest of my videos, RU-vid rotated it!?!?!? I "edited" it to fix the problem. Super embarrassing and even more annoying for my viewers! Sorry for the issue. I don't even know until it's uploaded!!!!! What a joke! Thanks for watching!

Thanks!

No, I'm not a pilot. My channel pictures were taken from photos with my dad, who is a private pilot. Some day, it'd be nice, but it's super expensive! I've just always been into planes and aviation and RC. I work on industrial scales for a living. I install, calibrate, design, configure, and program scales and the related periphery equipment. Sometimes into custom scale applications, and sometimes stand alone applications.

I was talking about the EDF's on my A320 which is still crashed. The parts are not all available, and who knows when they'll come available, so I thought the 64mm 12 bladed edf's, could be the way to get it up and running.

I do not understand what you mean. Thanks for watching!
