Brian. Another nice release from Horizon. I’m impressed with the SMART tech they are offering in these planes. Nice. LIGHTS. Kudos for that as well. Keep promoting lights for these models. Not a very expensive option and gives you a little more time to play at the field. 👍👍😉

@brucepolsky8660 2 года назад

Can't wait until i receive my pre-order. So glad you gave it such a nice review Brian. For marking CG I take a piece of black electrical tape stuck to wax paper and make a bunch of dots with a whole punch. Whenever I have a new plane to mark, I grab a couple of dots and stick them to the spot. Easy to feel with my fingers, nice and clean and no bad karma digging dents into my new plane.

@BrianPhillipsRC 2 года назад

Cool idea! I think they sell these dots at the office supply store, but how do you feel them? I used to make a drip of hot glue on clear tape, but I found that they were tough to see (kinda the point too) but you could really get the plane to balance on your finger nicely ;)

I have the Commander and the RV-7, Both incredible airplanes. Commander needs 4s. RV-7 fly's and lands better on 3s. I removed the wheel covers on both airplanes and put on Du-Bro 3" slim, light weight, low bounce, wheels. Big improvement. Factory wheels are horrible. RV-7 fly's and lands fantastic in strong raggedy wind. Both airplanes are very versatile.

@greyhawk5990 2 года назад

Hey Brian, Just ordered the RV-7. Do you have a video, or would you consider making a dedicated video where you discuss transmitter switch logic for the Spektrum DX/NX series? Not looking for "how" to set up the switches, but rather the "why" of which switch, switch direction for on/off - up/down, etc. Something like a Best Practices video. I've never seen good instruction on this aspect of RC flying and would like to see the logic behind the selections from a trusted source. Thanks to you and Megan for your good effort, and excellent videos. BTW, the step-by-step narrative while flying/taxiing is super helpful.

@BrianPhillipsRC 2 года назад

I understand what you want, and don't have one...we just have hundreds of step by step videos that show how I do stuff...but most of this is somewhat subjective. There isn't a "Right way" (best practice) unless you want to ascribe me the arbiter of "best practice" :) While that would be flattering, it would not be very fair to those who've been at this hobby for many more decades than I... We'll see about working some of this into our footage.

Again it looks awesome flying. I have never flown fixed wing and would love to learn some day. Helicopters have been very challenging just to fly without stability mode on.

Flying heli's is harder in many ways, so if you can do it, fixed wing will be a pretty easy thing for you.

@flymachine 2 года назад

I built an RV7A QB tip up in 2500hours - one of the best experiences of my life! I had the previous RV9 from E-flite but have been waiting for ages for a decent 7 in a park flyer size and finally, it's here. I was always partial to the 7A configuration (tricycle) so mine will be converted for sure and it is very strange to me to see an RV making any other noise than the Wetterman exhaust makes so a sound module is a must for me. The only other thing is obviously a repaint in my aircraft's colors - can't wait!

@BrianPhillipsRC 2 года назад

AWESOME! You still have it? Very cool! Do you have two seats in yours? Is it considered SPORT or EXPERIMENTAL?

@paulzorovich7960 2 года назад

Great video and instructions, Bryan. Thanks to your inputs on the Eflite T28 and the Turbo Timber Evolution, I was able to program the RV7 for thrust reversing. The RV7 came with an Avian Smart Lite ESC and no instructions in the manual on how to do that. Apparently only kits with the regular Avian Smart ESC includes instructions in the manual. Works great now. Thanks again. Paul Z.

In the maiden flight, I broke the propeller on the take off run (there were some holes in the grass runway). Fortunately I had some 3-blade propeller though they were 9 inches in diameter instead of the 11-inch of the original propeller. But even on a 3S it flew well and didn´t seem to be underpowered, but I knew acrobatics were out of question.

@terrycurtin1008 2 года назад

Good advice. Coordinated flight is critical when slow in turns. Not using rudder is why many full scale pilots die going slow and nose high. Ya stall a wing and it spins in.

@BrianPhillipsRC 2 года назад

Yeah, for sure!

@HeRacesTheSun 2 года назад

Brian, I always love your reviews, you are my new top favorite RC pilot for reviews. You helped me a lot with my E-Flite Cherokee, it was way to floaty on landings like yours was also. I saw you push your LiPo forward about an inch or so then it settled in for landings much better. Mine was way to tail heavy too, it was like trying to (comically) land a hot air balloon. I ended up changing my CG from 120mm. to 115mm and now with little to no power coming in for landings it slowly settles down and just a touch of up ELE for gentle flares, but will float back up with more than just a touch of up ELE, thank you! And I notice with your RV flaps, it seems you have a 2 to 3 second delay? On all my flaps planes I had a 2 second delay, but have changed them all to a 3 second delay, less immediate flaps effect, and eases more into the new flaps settings. Again, I love your reviews, much appreciated, thank you!

@BrianPhillipsRC 2 года назад

Thanks, and yeah, I'll sometimes throw in a 3 second or longer (rarely) to allow the plane to keep from ballooning with LESS elevator correction. This is usually best on planes that I don't plan to fly in full flaps...some I DO, meaning, I only really put down the landing flaps for landings...I know sounds a bit obvious, but I fly the whole flight envelope of most planes, meaning I LOVE to use flaps, both takeoff and landing flaps to get the plane to do exactly what I want, while flying, not just while landing ;) P.S. I love flaps ;) They're so much more than just aids for landing.

I originally put the SAFE option on switch A. Realizing that I made that mistake, I've been trying to move it over to switch B with no success. I even re bound it over with SAFE off successfully so I can start from scratch. Then Re binding it again with SAFE ON, then attempting to select switch B as the on / off switch. It keeps defaulting back to switch A. Switch B is empty and all throws are at 100% with zero Expo. If you know how to move the SAFE on / off switch from one switch to another, pleased let me know. THANKS.

Hey Brian. As always, superb video with tons of info. You inspired me to buy the RV-7 in 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿England. I've got the realflite 9.5 (2021) simulator and I thought a bit of practice on that before I get to the flying field would help. Guess what? Realflite sim does not have the RV-7 as an aircraft option! Maybe a prompt from you might persuade HH to put it on? In the meantime low rates set and off to the field! Keep up the great work.

Yes, but I would still suggest you get a 4S in this plane, since it'll give you MAX power for short field ops, especial if you need Thrust Reverse to land successful. That being said, 3S will work!

Brian, as usual, a thoroughly entertaining and informative review. My question is, if you think that the RV-7 would be a good plane to learn the unique handling characteristics of tail dragger planes?

@RichieRich980215 2 года назад

Brian, I just received mine today via FedEx, and did most of assembly. I'm watching your video again for the transmitter set up on my NX8 Radio. One thing I noticed that all these E-Flight models the wheels are very noisy because of the tolerance's are not good. IE wheel hubs holes are drilled to big for the fit on the axles and there is no keepers to keep the wheels from moving side to side to much. The planes I use to make, I used Dubro Wheels and Collars on both sides of the wheel. Obviously there tolerance's where really good back in the day. If you had a 3/32 axel the hub was drilled just a tiny bit larger. I don't know how there wheels are made now. I'm hoping they are as good as they use to be. My plan is to change all of them to them or maybe insert a brass bushing into these wheels and put collars on them. But all this new merchandise is all in metric. We will see. I purchased 5 E-Flight planes via your links. This model, T28 1.1m, Night Timber 1.2m, Extra 300 1.3m and the Ultrix. The only plane I wasn't able to buy from your links is the FMS P-47 Radzorback 1500mm, so you guys could get the commission on all of them. But the wheels on that plane are ball bearing and they are really scale. The retracts on that plane you would love. I asked you in the past on one of other videos if you would be building it, because I would have used your link for that model also! And I do watch your video's all the way thru. Keep them coming! I really like all the little innuendos you guys do. There are very entertaining. Your wife giggles crack me up. LOL ;) One question, would you ever put a Specktrum G2 4S 3300mAh 50C in the RV-7?

@BrianPhillipsRC 2 года назад

3300mah 4S in the RV7 would be a bit large, but you can probably get the CG okay. As for the wheel play....have you considered some grease? I don't know how you could keep it IN there, but maybe some white lithium grease would work??? I too wish the tolerances were tighter in this regard, but more than that, I want softer foam tires ;) As for buying from the links....Thank you Richard!

Does the motor before you put on the prop does it curve a little? Mine isn’t perfectly straight.

@BrianPhillipsRC 2 года назад

Doesn't curve at all, but it does point down and right like all planes, even big ones. This helps deal with P-Factor or the rotational (torque) contributed from a spinning prop. Yours should be going out the cowl at a slight down and right angle. Check close if in quesiton.

@BrianPhillipsRC 2 года назад

Put the rubber bands in a sealed jar with baby powder to keep them from drying out...then just don't let them be too stretched out...and hopefully you catch them before they break in 2 from dying out - I'd be lying if I suggested any more expertise than this. I'm from a younger generation of RC pilots, but do remember using and have some planes that use rubber bands to hold on the wings. I find that redundancy is key, if you make a mistake, you'll save a plane, but you can only have so many on those pegs. Hope this tidbit helps, but I'm probably not the guy with answers regarding this subject matter, and don't want to mislead anyone.

@BrianPhillipsRC 2 года назад

I don't think so. You would first need a DSMX transmitter to access the menu structure for the Avian ESC....I THINK... ...BUT, so long as you're connected to the plane via the Rx in the plane where the Avian ESC is being used, you might be able do it, but you may not have feedback (like the screens we see) - this could lead to a dangerous condition, so I'd encourage you to NOT do it...but also, have you considered getting an Avian ESC Programmer???

@BrianPhillipsRC 2 года назад

No China Glue is like rubber cement that we used to make "boogers" out of in school ;) It's actually MUCILAGE, which is a plant based glue, from what I understand. White glue is like WOOD glue, and it would work TERRIBLE for foam to foam, but it MIGHT possibly work for a decal to foam, or canopy....but probably not...WAY too stiff when dry. My Formula 560 works great for canopies, and it LOOKS EXACTLY like elmers, but it drys like RUBBER...weird! When it comes to RC planes... you will waste a lot of money on glue...I hate to admit it. If you get a single tube of Foam2Foam (Horizon Hobby), it will last a LONG time. It doesn't dry out like Mucilage (hobbyking)... Foam2Foam bit.ly/30RNnh0 (Amazon - amzn.to/3FfIHDV ) Mucilage bit.ly/3fdfzQp ...don't forget to buy the stuff when you're getting a plane or other stuff so you don't have to pay shipping.

@BrianPhillipsRC 2 года назад

Make sure they're 100% SYMMETRICAL. If they're off by just a TOUCH the plane will ROLL. Landing Flaps will EXAGGERATE this effect, while it may be less noticeable with takeoff flaps. Get this answered, and if the problem persists...get your AOA worked out. You need to keep the plane flying - NOSE DOWN - even a few degrees is fine, but the AOA will shift with landing flaps. If this still doesn't help...move the battery forward, and see if that helps...you're going to be slower with landing flaps, so you might need to get the CG a bit more toward nose heavy to make her fly on rails slower.
