Xfly - J-65 - Twin 70mm Business Jet - Unbox, Build, & Radio Setup 

AWESOME! So glad you found this video, and there's loads more like them here on BrianPhillipsRC

I'm not a jet guy so I usually skip vids like this but your comment just got me to watch. You can never know too much about these radios so I'll be watching for that info.

Thanks! Appreciate you saying this, and we're glad to have you with us!!!

I legit came to the comment section to correct him on that as well! Great catch.

Difference is the "Fly By" Telemetry on the AR630, and the notable absence of VOLTAGE INPUT. This will only be an issue if you DON'T end up with an Avian ESC ;) We are putting in Twin 60 Amp Avian's as soon as they show up, and want to share the process....it's gonna be epic...thrust reverse just like in a REAL Gulfstream ...can't wait to do this project!!! If I had to advise you, you COULD do this... J65 bit.ly/3EpgpoR 7000mAh 6S bit.ly/3PtmZRK | 5000mAh 6S bit.ly/3PukVJf AR637T bit.ly/3OlgIpB

LOL - I have to work really hard not to smile too much when I'm cramming in a innuendo. She was grinning ;) LOL

This one is GREAT! It's also big...so keep that in mind.

Thanks Randy! Glad you think so - Megan is great!

Glad you caught that one ;) Should I just get ready to be "taken out"? LOL

@@BrianPhillipsRC bahaha no don’t get suicided! I enjoy these videos too much😆

It's a natural part of the hobby. If you can skip this step, I figure you'll be less of a "real" rc pilot - LOL ;)

100%

AWESOME! I'm so glad you didn't hear that thing I said that could cause me to get disappeared - LOL

@@BrianPhillipsRC 😆

Coming very soon ;) It was awesome, but you can't get it yet...so we don't want to temp you ;)

@@BrianPhillipsRC I managed to get my hands on one last month. Don't ask me how tho! Soooo looking forward to your review. I also hope you do the new Xfly Alpha jet. That one has been on my "should I buy it" list for ages now.

toatileee

YES! That would be cool!!! I want to put in a pond too...but we have a couple projects in line before we can "afford" it ;)

LOL - amazing plan!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I would be lying if I tried to evaluate the performance of the PJ50, since MotionRC doesn't want to work with us ;(..... Oh well, I guess I'll just say this - the XFly is AMAZING ;)

LOL - you caught that???? Sooooo strange?!?!?

Thank you so much. She is amazing! She's been featured in a number of our videos - but gotta search for them ;) She's not as fond of being in front of the camera, but I don't understand why!!!

The BJ69??? LOL

@@BrianPhillipsRC yea that one lmbo

Not trailing link on the NOSE gear...that's just a spring loaded bogey. Looks amazing! Mains ARE trailing link, but pretty stiff, if you ask me.

yes, it sure does!

YES. This is fine, but keep in mind, if you get ANOTHER plane that's in PNP, the channels may be programmed to work in opposite directions, so you can either reprogram the Rx, after updating new firmware, so you can do a FACTORY RESET from FORWARD PROGRAMMING, or you can just use these on each of the controls that are backward... Servo Signal Reversers bit.ly/3B9nVpT HH | amzn.to/3bpECDf AZ | bit.ly/3tkn9yN BG ...and NO, you can't just swap the direction of travel on the Tx, you need AS3X and SAFE to work the right directions too...thus the need for the servo reversing.

LOL - Hope you enjoyed it!!!

I don't know, since MotionRC refuses to work with us. I'm sorry I can't give you any basis for comparison. This plane, the J65 flies amazing.

Other than the ones that join the fuse halves together - I guess I don't know for certain, but I kinda assume so much. It's pretty dang stiff if there's NOT.

Wheels are similar. I think grass ops would be fine if you don't mind making her dirty. She is more SQUAT than the Viper 90mm, but the WHEELS are not that much different.

@@BrianPhillipsRC thanks man! ✌️

When you get ready to jump in, just get the RTF combo and see how much you love it, which will be a lot ;) Then you can spend a lot more money on BNF with NX8 and better chargers...and loads of batteries and planes in your future, but take it one step at a time. You'll advance so quick, and if you CAN get a simulator for windy/rainy days and fly the heck out of that thing! Practice all the time - you'll want to anyway, but get out as frequently as you can to shorten the duration of newb status ;) Not sure if I sent you this list yet, but here's our beginner list recommendations...

@@BrianPhillipsRC Thanks for the response and advice. Love the channel!

Pretty much all we CAN do right now. FAA needs to get out of the hobby world.

@@BrianPhillipsRC Government needs to get out of a lot of things...

I agree, but it was vetoed pretty dang quick ;( LOL

ME TOO!!! ;)

Nice! Thanks for the clarification! I've only partially understood this, but thanks for clarifying this, so now I know ;) So slower planes might use a bladder to POP the ice off?

@@BrianPhillipsRC generally smaller aircrafts have the boots, and they simply inflate to break the ice apart, and then it falls off the leading edge preventing disaster!

I loved mine! Wish I could have found a cosworth, AWD ;) That would have been SUPER FUN!!!

Hell ya I have an svo stang

nice!

Glad we can make you laugh ;)

If you have a golf green, it'll go, but I'd save grass ops for emergency landings with this beauty. That being said, I kinda HATE to get my more beautiful planes dirty like that.

You can look into it if you wish, but I'm not giving them free marketing. I'm also not a lawyer and won't put myself in a liability position by explaining what I believe I know. Sorry - I just can't talk publicly about it for many reasons ;(

@@BrianPhillipsRC well whatever I'm legally flying my planes at the local AMA field until instructed otherwise. I'm willing to bet this is all because of the drones.

:)

spoiled rotten - yes ;) This plane is an amazing flight experience, but she is so dang beautiful!!!!!! I'm just not ready to see anything less than perfection for her ;)

I had a lot of problems with this plane. If your plane doesn't go to full throttle, this can be sometimes corrected by "calibrating" the throttle range. This is easy, but only if you do it right!!! Other wise, it can be somewhat dangerous - FYI. First, verify the ESC make and model. Search Programming Above information... the process should be similar to this... From plane off, transmitter off. Power Tx, full throttle. Power plane, keeping prop well away from your body (remove if necessary). Once the ESC fails to initiate, you can wait for a series of beeps and whatnot (this is where it's helpful to have a programming manual for the Make and Model...yes, they do vary over time for even the same plane). Usually on the first sounds, you can throw the throttle to ZERO...and the ESC will initiate. Now check the power from 0% (stick all the way down) to 100% (Still all the way up)...and you should be calibrated now.
