I really liked the short take off and landing (STOL) characteristics of this aeroplane. Use the flaps to take off within 1 metre and land in less than 2 metres. Otherwise this could be a perfect first step to learning to fly a radio controlled aeroplane and mastering flight beyond just the basics.

Quite spectacular videography; your camera person is especially lifted. The drone footage is superb. The whole thing looks like it was made by the Flite Test team.

@GroundControlRC Год назад

Fantastic Bush Plane! The flaps for slow flight is absolutely great. Nice power as well. See you in the Air!

@odwatchguy Год назад

Nice review of the PA-18 1.3m, really showed how this can fit with all levels of pilots.

@EssentialRC Год назад

Thanks Tony. So easy for Expert pilots to assume this kinda RC could be boring. Certainly not ! Appreciate the feedback.

@danielforde-pogson Год назад

Beautiful plane! Lovely drone work too!

@EssentialRC Год назад

Glad you enjoyed it

I have the larger 1.7m version and it's an absolute gem to fly. In my opinion it looks best when flown in a scale manner with lots of touch and go's thrown in for good measure. I fitted it with the soft rubber wheels tyres from a Durafly Tundra and modded the UC for a more scale like appearance.

@EssentialRC Год назад

Bigger models fly better but not everyone can afford them or be bothered with the hassle of transporting them. Our 1.7m PA-18 video is uploaded for members and I'll publish it soon.

@CliffHarveyRCPlanes Год назад

Nice little beginner model Dom, so well sorted 👍

@EssentialRC Год назад

Makes me wonder why I spend money on big stuff Cliff. These smaller RCs fly so well and have so much fun with them. Happy New Year chap !

@chrisfell2621 Год назад

That is my kinda plane. Thanks for the video.

@EssentialRC Год назад

Thanks for watching!

@richardwilson8271 Год назад

You would not turn model upside down to check cg.

@EssentialRC Год назад

Eh, yeah, you can. Might want to ensure the battery is secured properly first but sure you can. If the CG marks are on top of the wing its probably the best thing to do.

@walharbay9383 Год назад

@@EssentialRC For a low wing, yes. Not a high wing.

@M0rdH0rst Год назад

Did FMS sent you a whole container full of planes? 😁 Looks like a nice beginner package. I'm still flying my old, beat up E-Flite Carbon Cub and love to STOL it, also FPV now. Btw. what do you do with all the planes, after you reviewed them?

@EssentialRC Год назад

Yup...they sent me a whole load for review. I hang them off the ceiling after done. Will be using them a lot more during 2023. e.g. FPV glider towing
