EDIT: Discovered that the motor shaft was loose,meaning no power and causing it to crash!!
Spent a long time printing ,assembling and painting this bird.
Camera stopped recording,last flight I had no control and she ploughed into the only fence around and that was her end.
Oh well,thats RC flying for ya !!

I bought an Artillery Sidewinder with an interest in making small parts and eventually printing planes. The more videos I watched, the less interested I got in doing it. BUT! I was prepared to laugh at this video, but that eagle flew way better than I expected and looked super cool in the air! Since we didn't get to see the second time it went it, did it do something similar? Are you sure you lost control and it didn't mush around and stall on downwind turn? I have a foamie Bangood Eagle that flies great but looks terrible. Yours is enough to interest me again. Nice work!

Thanks, I learned a bit printing this bird. I probably should have flown higher. I may try the seagull EDF next as it's a smaller build.

That is why mine is just hanging from my ceiling. A lot of hours of printing and too pretty to see mine end up in pieces.

thought it would look better in the air than collecting dust,which it did but only briefly.Thats the way it goes in this hobby,cheers.

Oh dear, looked a bit directionally unstable Jakey....Ive a couple of printed planes, they look great but feel too heavy and too fragile to risk flying....Kudos for flying Mode 1 m8....🤔😮😏😀

@JakeBullit123 4 месяца назад

It's got a vertical clear perspex fin, maybe I was flying to slow to have ailerons authority? Oh well, shlt happens😁

@@JakeBullit123 Yes, I kept shouting get some height man!!!....Stop twatting around near the ground, get used to it....Too late now...Shame, it looked great in the air....😏🤔

@@EnglishTurbines was trying to keep it low for your viewing pleasure😆

@chrisp3673 3 месяца назад

it seems that the CG is too far back. My eagle had the same characteristic. Then i managed to get more weight in the nose and it flew well! Much better than before!

@JakeBullit123 3 месяца назад

Thanks, sadly it crashed due to motor failure and is no more.

So many flights end with all control lost. Makes me wonder about modern RC transmitters and receivers. Beautiful model that seemed underpowered but otherwise a good performer.

@JakeBullit123 4 месяца назад

Had plenty of power, and elrs link was good. Possibly flying to slow so didn't have much soldering Aileron authority?

@blackbirdboy1 4 месяца назад

Pity, coz it looked mint. That 360 cam view didn't work though. Difficult to gauge perspective.

@JakeBullit123 4 месяца назад

Cheers, was gutted when it crashed. Hey ho.

@flyingrock6381 4 месяца назад

sorry to hear about that Jake! know the feeling... bird was looking really good!

@JakeBullit123 4 месяца назад

Thanks,appreciated.Maybe I should have your user name :)

Nice work. I feel your pain on the print time verses air time. I print a lot of planes and have found the strategic use of fibreglass and carbon makes them a lot more robust.

I feel a kevlar skin wouldn`t have protected this bird.TFW.
