I love the reality aspect of this video. once again the recommended battery and c g are not right. this happens way to often. you guys are quick study of the tail heavy plane nice flight Robert you are a true test pilot. what a beautiful flight for your Easter Sunday. 😎. Happy Easter from Sedro Woolley WA BLAZ. FEEL BETTER SOON. 😋
Like you said Roy. Good thing that I had an idea to use bigger baterrie. The first CG was according to the manual and the baterrie. Both way off. But now this bird is perfect flyer. And no trimming was needed. Great. Just great... Like you said this was the true test of the plane and we got some good information for the future. Big salute to Sedro Woolley from Kostanjevica. Cheers my friend, Robert
Robert Petrinčič hello capt Robert. I am about to fly and I am really confused. I decided to take off the tanks to reduce the weight. With a 1600 battery, pushing it all the way back and having a small weight on the back, per manual CG the Plane is still nose heavy. I spoke with motionrc and they said that the plane is designed for a 138 gram bat my 1600 is 205 grams. I watched your vid several times, do you think your first toss was maybe too steep?
Ok, thank you! I’ll re configure a bit. I just wonder where the heck is the CG. Right now I have between 7.3mm and 8.2mm behind panel line, per manual. I’ll make a maiden vid dedicate to you guys and send.
Great first flight Robert. I have had this airplane for a couple years and it is great value for the money. After 20 flights I took out the 64mm fan and installed the e-flite 70 mm and ran the model with a 4 cell 2200 mAh battery. I no longer need to hand launch as the Mig now takes off from the ground. The jet now completes large loops and really zips along. Have a great day from St. Albert AB. Canada.
Thanks Todd. You must really have fast little devil ;) I love this baby now with perfect CG and the flying time is great. Cant wait to test little Sabre. Oh yeah... Big salute to St.Albert from Slovenia. Cheers my friend, Robert
There is a nice upgrade to the 5-blade fan. I think its a 10-blade fan that has a nicer sound, more like a jet and less like the sound of a hairdryer. Get well Capt. Blaz.
Oh yeah Lee, but for maiden flights we always test the planes like you get them when you buy them. And I like this baby as it is. But it would be better sound ofcourse from 12 blades. Cheers, Robert
Thanks Bob. Iam really glad that I aborted that first attempt after I saw that crazy flying of the plane. But now on 2700mAh the bird is great. I love it and I love the flying time now. Oh yeah... MIGs are such great planes. Maybe now I will get the MIG 21 too... Be well my friend and big salute to Canada from Slovenia. Cheers, Robert
Because of this video .. I just purchased the freewing mig 15 and the f86 sabre.. thanks guys .. I love your channel and watch every day . please fly the giant Stuka .. I so waiting to see that . Best wishes from Randy Cooke in Ontario canada . Cpt Blaz and Pilot Robert are stars on my TV set every day. Smiles
Thanks Cliff. There is something on MIGs. They land very well. I love them. And like you said GensAce are one of the best baterries that you can buy. Really top quality and very expensive. But I love them and I really love this little devil. Oh yeah... Cheers my friend and see you soon, Robert
I like it. Captain Blaz says he's about to throw up and sounds as though he's dying, meanwhile Captain Robert totally disregarding his pitiful moaning is lovingly saying "look at this", while caressing the curves of the MIG
It was crazy Andy but I really wanted this bird to fly very badly. And Captain Blaž is OK now. He was assembling his new plane in the afternoon. This is true life of RC lover ;) Cheers my friend, Robert
I love it Brian. But I think that it is fast enough for the size. This way I enjoy it on 4S I will just wait when I will crash it. But who knows ;) Cheers, Robert
Happy Easter, maybe they need to consult with the Petrincic brothers before they write the manual!!! OH YEAH!!!!!! Nice flying and great filming my friends!!!!
Thanks George. And this was really good test of the bird. Again we have found the perfect G spot of the plane and Iam really happy that I can fly this bird with 2700mAh. Oh yeah... Maybe Freewing will contact us someday ;) Cheers my friend, Robert
Great to see the rain has finally stopped and it is getting a little warmer in the coming week. Perfect landing as usual Pilot Robert, hope you get well soon Captain Blaz. See you guys soon!
Thanks Andrew. I was just getting sick in the house all the time. This day was great and so much fun. I love MIGs. Oh yeah... Be well my friend and see you soon. Have a good time in our beautiful country. Cheers, Robert
Thanks Kevin and Iam really happy that I landed quickly when I saw how the plane was flying with 1600mAh baterrie. But now with 2700 its perfect CG again. Oh yeah... And I just love the fact that I can fly for alnoust 6 minutes with EDF. Great... Cheers my friend, Robert
Fun stuff fellas ... glad the first "flop" didn't hurt the plane. Always love the close "fly bys." Enjoyable entertainment guys! ...and by the way Robert .... you had that landing perfected! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks Jack. A lot of fun from such small baby. I love it. Oh yeah... And like you said I was pretty lucky with that 1600mAh baterrie at the start. Iam really glad that I had an idea to test the 2700mAh baterrie too. It turned out to be the perfect choice for this bird. Cheers my friend, Robert
Absolutely, that is why we love your channel. We get the 100% actual truth as it happens. Good Luck boys, we love you for being so dedicated to our RC hobby.
Thanks Richard. This was really true test of the plane. We have found the perfect CG again on the runway. I love this little bird and I cant wait for the second flight. Be well my friend and see you soon, Robert
Tail heavy and high AOA on the first throw. That second throw you threw it nice and level with a much better CG. You guys made that bird look good. And it sounded wonderful.
Oh yeah Joshua. I really love this baby and now even more if I can fly it with 2700mAh baterrie. Great. And the sound is pretty good for 64 mm and only 5 blades... Cheers, Robert
Happy Easter guys. Hope Captain Blaz feels better soon and you get some decent weather to get out and fly more planes. The smaller planes can benefit from gyros maybe you could get a AS3X receiver for it? Would help on those windy days. I'm really hoping that freewing come out with a big MiG 15/17 soon. Its got to happen!!!!!
Hey W. Like you said. If Freewing will put out the 90mm MIG 15 or 17 I would buy it immediately. I just love MIGs very much. Such good flyers. And have Gyro at home but I just like to see what the bird can do. Cheers my friend, Robert
TOTALLY AWESOME GUYS!!! Hey Robert, GREAT JOB getting her down safely as you did when she was tail-heavy!!! And for my friend Blaz, I hope you're feeling better brother!!! HAPPY EASTER to you and your families from the Mighty MOJAVE Desert!
Thanks J and all the best to you too my friend. I really love this plane now when I can fly it for almoust 6 minutes. Oh yeah... Cheers my friend, Robert
Nearly at the next milestone; 4K subs!! So happy for you guy that the channel has grown so rapidly in the last 3 months and can't wait for you to do this full time. Greetings from the UK, John.
Thanks John for all support all this time. We are growing slowly and gentely. Oh yeah... We are really happy the viewers like our way of filming. And we have so many good friends all over the world becouse of this great, great hobby. We love it... Stay well my friend and greetings from Slovenia, Robert
Happy Easter gentlemen.. So happy you done this review 😊 Just got the freewing f86 64 mm yesterday day and test fitted a 2250 3s and was thinking it was going to be to big as there was no more room to fit the receiver at the recommend place 😔 But as I see you have placed yours on the canopy. As this is my first EDF I was scratching my head with options 😉and then this beautiful little review put everything thing in place for me. You guys are the bomb thanks for passing on all your fantastic reviews.. it's guys like you that pass on all your knowledge that help us blokes well some anyway that don't have as much experience for this I salute you.
Hey Dexter, can you imagine that. Its great. And F86 will be next on my wish list. I can tell you that with 2700 baterrie the CG was perfect and way off from the CG in the manual. But the bird survived and we have learned something new. Oh yeah... Good luck with your bird my friend and happy landings. Keep me posted how the maiden went. Cheers my friend, Robert
Hi guys great little model looked tail heavy first time but you nailed it with the larger battery great flying Robert and nice landing great video as always cheers guys.
Like you said Bill. Good thing that I aborted the flight as soon as I saw that crazy flying. But now the bird is perfect and again we have found our famous G spot ;) Be well my friend and see you soon, Robert
Oh yeah Steven, I really love MIGs. There is something on them... And all the landing with MIGs so far were just perfect. And you know how much I love perfect landing ;) Cheers my friend, Robert
I just had my first flight of one of these and it went really well with 3s 2200 all the way too the front you just need to adust the expo on the ailerons and elevator to make it move less good fun flys fast
Like you said Andy. I have only good experince with MIGs . I really love all three that I have. And this baby even small its still a lot of fun. Oh yeah... Cheers my friend, Robert
Happy Easter lads , wow that was a strange situation ,sometimes even the manufacturers have no idea of cg ,its such a short fuselage the balance is critical ,but what a difference with the 2700 ,well done my friends
Thanks S and like you said. Its very hard to get good CG on so small plane but now its perfect and we can recommend it. Its a little faster now on the landing but such a good flyer and the flying time is much better. Oh yeah... Cant wait to get Sabre. Iam really dreaming about that plane for a very long time. I will be happy even with this small version... Be well my friend and see you soon, Robert
Hi Robert, hope Captain Blaž is on the mend. I really must stop watching your videos, saw the FlyBaby flight, bought one, watched the Mig15 flight, bought one!! Very informative and as always, great fun to watch, just hope the bank manager agrees!!
Like you said Ken, this is a never ending story. I have enough planes for the whole year now. Its sick.... But I love it ;) Happy landings my friend and see you soon, Robert
Unfortunately Robert, happy landings are almost as rare as successful take off's for me but yes, it is a sickness and I have been well & truly bitten! My hanger is full of Virgin aircraft and the plan is to maiden two a week during the summer if we actually get one in the UK this year meanwhile, I'll continue enjoying your flights!!
Beautiful plane guys. Try it with a 4s-1800mAh battery as far forward as it can go. It really is a joy to fly then. There is no need to upgrade the motor or the ESC, as long as you do not go full throttle for more than 7-10 seconds at a time....Basically for launch, and a few high-speed passes. The rest of the time, you can buzz along at half-to 3/4 throttle..... That is what I used to fly my F9 panther with. Happy Easter to you and your families gentlemen.... David
Hey David. Thanks for information. But since I dont have any 1800mAh baterrie I decited to test it with 2700mAh and I must say that the CG is perfect and I can fly for 6 minutes. I really love this little baby and I will get some more of those little devils ;) Sabre first... Cheers my friend, Robert
Thanks C. And like you said it was a lot like Rare Bear. Quite fast on the landing. But it was great. I really love MIGs. Oh yeah... Cheers my friend, Robert
Interestingly, we had the same issue with the 64mm Panther. You figured it out faster than we did. I kept trying to fly it with the CG in the right spot and failed every time. As soon as we made it really nose heavy it flew great! Weird huh?? Poor Blaz... Sounds like he had a cold?
Hey Lauren. I was really surprised by the performance with 1600mAh baterrie. No way to fly it. And the CG was according to the book. But with 2700mAh we have once again foung our famous G spot. On the plane ofcourse. Not at home ;) Just kiddimg my friend. But with this baterrie it is perfect and you can fly for almoust 6 minutes. Perfect... Oh yeah... And Captain Blaž will get better soon. He is resting now since we have three days off work. Cant wait to test Panther and Sabre and.... All little birds. Its so much fun if you dont have to worry about the landing gear. I love it... Be well my friend and see you soon. Have a nice day, Robert
Happy Easter Robert and Blaz!!!! Nice 2nd maiden and awesome landing my friend. No maiden for me since it was very windy and my field is muddy with a lot of water puddles.
Thanks Will. We had rain every day but today we just had to go to the runway and fly a little. I was going crazy being in the house all the time... Cheers my friend, Robert
Great 'baby' MIG. Great take-off and landing too. The first one doesn't count as someone told you the 'G-SPOT' was in the wrong place, because Pilot Robert & Capt. Blaz will always find the G-Spot - HEY? Loved the flight
Like you said William. Once again we have here prooved that we can always find the perfect CG on the planes no matter what manual says. And like this and with this baterrien its really perfect. No trimming needed. I was really surprised about that. And I dont know why do they recommend 1600mAh baterrie if you cant fly with it. But if was great and I really love this little baby. Oh yeah... Cheers my friend, Robert
Thanks P for such kind words. And that is the point of this channel. To see the true life of RC lover. And we are very happy that we have again found the perfect CG on the plane. And it is totally different that the one in the manual. Oh yeah... Cheers my friend, Robert
happy easter from cape town, en route from melbourne to home in munich. thanks for venturing out when one half of the team should be in bed! chicken soup and marmite toast 😁 great flyer, those shots against the clouds reminds me of an episode in 1979 (?) when lt. bomba defected in one and i watched it fly over us in pretoria with an exhaust like a tractor and a very distinctive whine.
Thanks G. We just had to go to the runway so Captain Blaž can get better soon. He was feeling bad becouse of all the rain in the last days and we were off work and no flying ;) And the clouds were really strange today. I didnt notice that when we were filming. Big salute to Cape Town from Kostanjevica. Cheers my friend, Robert
Thanks Nicolas. The Sabre is next. Oh yeah... Good luck on your maiden my friend and happy landings. Keep me posted on progress. Greetings from Slovenia, Robert
Robert Petrinčič just finish the build, very easy ! I hope i can use my turnigy 2200 graphene in it but there is the question of cg.. i see your mig is very nose down lol and these 2 bird are similar so i see what is going on maiden :-)
Hey... I love the videos you guys make with such colorful personalities... Hey.. and look at dis... You quickly produce videos of a lot of cool planes... hey... keep it up! hey..
Like you said A. It was sich to test something like that but at the end its perfect choice. Perfect... I really love this baby na dcant wait to get Sabre. Oh yeah... Cheers my friend, Robert
Happy Easter Robert and Captain Blaž. Great flying my favourite pilots. I am very very curious, have you two actually thought of flying a kerosene Jet engine aeroplane ? It is quite expensive and big task but it's perfect for take off and landing on grass and you both have expertise and know how to build planes. Thank you again for your videos and God bless you two.
Thanks C for good wishes. All the best to you too my friend. And maybe this year I will buy a plane with real turbine on kerosene. I now for one just need to get some money. Those babies are expensive to buy. But lets hope for the best. Oh yeah... Be well my friend and see you soon, Robert
Happy Easter to zee Brothers and their families. Nice flight and camera action as usual. Capt Blaz needs a shot or two of some "strong" cough medicine. Irish whiskey with a beer chaser would be my recommendation. Keep em coming gentlemen.
Congratulations on the successful flight of your MiG-15 Pilot Robert ! I own the Freewing 64mm F9F Panther that I upgraded to a Freewing 12 blade 3300kv fan unit and a 45amp ESC. I am powering it with a 4 cell 2200mah 35c battery (with a small mod to the battery tray). It has a 1.3 to 1 thrust to weight ratio. It will fly right out of your hand with a light toss and is ridiculously fast. Also, the sound of the 12 blade fan is AWESOME ! You should try this mod with your MiG Pilot Robert ! I purchased the fan unit and ESC from our friends at Motion RC. Salute Pilot Robert and Captain Blaz ! 🍺 I’m heading out to the RC field in two hours to fly and the Panther will be zooming the shit out of the sky above ! 👍🏼 P.S. - I can send you pictures of the mod that I did to the Panther if you’d like.
Hey U, your Panther must be just crazy. I can just imagine the sound on your baby. I hope you had good flying today and perfect landings. Oh yeah... I will leave this baby as it is and I will rather buy some more these small little devils for that money. Iam always dreaming to have Sabre.... Cheers my friend, Robert
Great video, you really do a true review. Sounds like Capt. Blaze has a bad cold. Take it easy on him give him some chicken soup. Sounds like he might have given it to you too. You are such a upbeat guy. Have a great Easter.
Thanks River, like you said this was a true test and you can see that there is no editing. And I really love this baby now. I was scared a little after the first try but now with this baterrie its just perfect. Oh yeah... Greetings from Slovenia, Robert
Thanks Dick. At the end all ended very well and we can say now what baterrie to use with this baby. Happy holidays to you too my friend. Cheers, Robert
All the best to you too my friend. And this baby is great. I love new CG and the fact that I can fly it on 2700mAh. Oh yeah... Cheers my friend, Robert
These swept wing jets fl;y much better a little nose heavy,I think for its size this flies very well,when you opened her up then you could see how fast this little beauty is,high set tails also need less movement from experience,you handled the first attempt well and got the Mig 15 down onto the ground safely,look forwad to seeing the F-86 Sabre fly when you get this.
Thanks Bubba. Good to seee back here with us. I hope that you are OK and and I wish you happy holidays. And I can tell you that this bird is great. A lot of fun for less then 100$. Oh yeah... Big salute from Slovenia and see you soon, Robert
Thanks Robert for stopping by. It was crazy but at the end quite good test of this little devil. I love it. Oh yeah... Stay well and see you soon, Robert
Happy Easter guys!!! WowPilot Robert,that was an awesome flight! I really like what I see with the Freewing EDF's,maybe I should get the Sabre or Panther so we can have "dog fights"lol.Captain Blaz that was a great job with the camera!! I hope you feel better real soon and Robert I hope you do not catch Capt.Blaz's cold!! Cheers my brothers!!
Thanks Don and like you said this baby is great. Iam really happy that I can fly it on 2700mAh baterrie. And the Sabre is next. I want that baby for a very long time. I would like to have 80mm one but this 64 will be OK also. Cheers my friend and see you soon, Robert
Hey Captain Robert hey man that is the most sweetest Landing I've ever seen I don't think you ever landed the plane like that man I was pretty sweet the camera guy complains that you are too loud I don't think so that is just Who You Are sometimes people say I talk too loud too but that is just who I am and then he says you Bible too much I don't think you Bible too much I think you give us all the information we need for those planes Captain Robert you doing a good job some people have what it takes to be in front of a camera and some people don't Captain Robert I think that you have it thank you for your videos
Thanks Corbin. We are really happy when we find time to go to the runway. And this flight was really great. Again we have found the perfect CG. I just love it...Oh yeah... Cheers my friend, Robert
Seriously, guys. Get this baby out of the hangar - along with the other 64mm EDFs. Viewers will cream their jeans over this sort of footage. Love it. I think I've watched this video twenty times :D Oh yeahhhhh!! nick
Thanks Eduardo. I was really wondering about the CG after the first attempt. But its great now and I love the fact that I can fly it on 2700mAh. Oh yeah... Big salute from Slovenia and see you soon, Robert
Thanks for the info guys..i have buy this bird about 3 month ago,not fly this bird yet..u guys have give the information i need..salute to Capt Robert and Capt Blaz from Pilot Pikey.. cheers mate 🍻🍻🍻
Oh yeah Pikey. Now we can all see how good it is that we dont edit our videos. Again we have found the perfect CG. And you will love this little devil... Cheers my friend, Robert
BRILLIANT VIDEO AGAIN! I've bought one, but am having difficulty finding that battery - how heavy is it, please, because I could use a 2200 and a a little weight? Thanks, Den, Cymru ( Wales ).
Nice plane: great scale looking, easy to transport, affordable, but yet this 64mm EDF size it is too small in my opinion, a larger plane flies easier, is less sensitive to wind and is easier to see. Well filmed and flown and a lot of practical information for the future buyer of this beautiful model.
Thanks Louis. And like you said the bigger is better. But with bigger plane there is also more money involved ;) But still this baby is a lot of fun and it was great to fly it. Really good flyer but it doesnt like the wind very much. And the best thing is that I can fly it on 2700mAh baterrie. Oh yeah... Cheers my friend, Robert
Thanks Neal. Iam really happy that the plane survived and we have even found new perfect CG on this plane. Its just great... Be well and see you soon, Robert
Wow this 64mm Freewing model is very attractive. It is even a good price if you upgrade it to a 10-12 blade fan with 4S setup. I just don't know if the stock ESC/motor can handle 4s. Also to be honest it's fast enough with the stock 3s setup.
Like you said Attila. Its not to fast with stock electronics but fast enough I think so you can handle it well. I love it and I will get that Sabre too. Cant wait. Oh yeah... Cheers my friend, Robert
Blaz go home and go to bed. You sound so sick, you are making me feel bad all the way around the world in Texas! Happy Easter and I hope you feel better. Great video as usual.
Oh yeah B. I wanted this baby for a very long time but it was very scary after first attempt. I really didnt know what to expect. But now I just love this little devil and the flying time is great... Cheers, Robert
Hey E. I was really surprissed with 1600mAh. No way to fly the plane with that. But now with 2700mAh its perfect. No trimming needed. I just love this baby. It looks great at flybys. Oh yeah... Cheers my friend, Robert
