059 Pre Flite Fest Ohio 2019

On a whim I decided to take on this massive print project. While the rational person would already have concluded cost + hours = cheaper to buy a foamy I do love a good challenge. Stay tuned as this project develops and progresses. Supermarine Spitfire MkIX Printer: ANET A8 Slicer...

So it started out with a set of 64mm (3S) EDF motors and some 40AMP ESCs. It ended with what appears to be a decent setup. Fingers crossed. The initial glide tests showed me I could move the battery closer to the main fuse and shorten the nose section. The 2nd round tests with flight controls...

https://www.horizonhobby.com/product/... http://www.greathobbies.com/productin... Honestly it followed me home. Just one more plane. I promise. Hi my name is André and I have an addiction. So, let me introduce the newest plane to the fleet. The Commander, the moment this plane was released it...

MultiRC sent me a 150mm Shenanigans quad frame to review. (Rest of the kit I purchased) This is a new direction for me. Tiny and I have to say I do like the use of the TPU. Flexible 3D printed parts are very neat. Not only do they absorb vibrations on the arms but they also help with impact...

Well I took the plunge. After months of debate and discussion. I purchased a DJI Phantom 4. Initially I had been searching for a nice deal on a P3 Advanced but that never materialized. The price difference between the P3 Pro and P4 is small enough that I decided to just get the 4. I was...

116 Andre's trip to Ohio Andre made the long trip from Ottawa down to Ohio to join the rest of the FT Afterhours crew for 3 days of flying shenanigans.It was non stop from dodging trees at Wayne's,formationTundra flying at Fury field to glider towing at the original FT headquarters. 116 Andre's...

EKEN H8R 170 Degree Wide Angle 4K Ultra HD WiFi Action Camera After the RunCam2 I was pleased to hear from GearBest again. This time I will be looking at my first 2.7K and 4K camera experience. Should be very interesting to see how this camera stack up to the previously tested models...

There are some pretty amazing people in the world. And doing the podcast has connected me with some many. One gentleman named Scott from Australia decided I needed a challenge. I needed to fly 3D. This stemmed from the fact back in the fall of 2015 we were having access issue to where I...

The Skipper is one of those planes you should really try. It is a little wild but handles like a race car. Specially if you have snow issues. I picked mine up during the pre-Christmas sale. HobbyKing® ™ Skipper All Terrain Airplane EPO 700mm (PNF) I use a OrangeRx R410X DSMX Compatible 4Ch/6CH...

The HMB-235 before all the fun started :) Mark from http://www.multirc.com/ asked me to take a crack at their HMB-235 frame. He sent along a frame and some DAL BullNose 5x4.5 props. The rest of the gear I simply transferred from my 250 frame. HMB-235 packaged DAL BN Props My trusty 250...

Durafly Curtiss P-40N Warhawk 1100mm (PNF) Anyone listening to the Afterhours Podcasts will know I've been waiting for this plane a long time. When HobbyKing accounted more production delays back in the spring I all but gave up on the plane and opt'd to buy a used Dynam Fw 190 1200mm. A...

For a while now I've been trying to do flying updates. Discussing projects and experiences. Normally I try and do them on Friday evenings but you know how busy life can been. Missed a few weeks in a row but managed to record one last night. Here is the link to all the previous recordings.

(Having some issues posting the photos for the build so I'm doing this in sections.) I've only flown the FT Spitfire once before. It was built by my Dad and he wanted me to test it out. Felt nice, slightly more sluggish then the FT Racer but fun. Then the itch to fly something bigger grew...
