flite test

e

I am starting to build a nitro powered version of a flite test plane, so I'm taking a poll/suggestions on what people would like to see.

I know that peter created a plane using the magnus effect using kfc buckets; however, could the flite test team be able to create a plane using this effect in a way that could be built in something like a speed build kit? Fingers crossed!!!

I failed because I had the balance point set wrong , I fixed it since and this build is awesome. For a good laugh at a noob Here's the link -->> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ufuWktwBzIc&feature=youtu.be

i built an ft mini scout and was about to put my big motors that i use on my 2 meter wings on there when i realized that that would be way too much torque and not work very well. What motor should i use? the closest thing i have to what should be used on it is some 1104 7000kv motors. any...

Hey guys I've been considering buying an atom v3 recently because I've got lots of land at my house but it's very wooded. The trees are far enough apart that I could have fun with something like the atom weaving in and about. What complicates things is that now that the Gremlin is out I'm...

So I ordered the Eachine Wizard X220 ARF (Almost Ready To Fly). I have a Spektrum DXE Transmitter so I wanted a receiver that would work with it. I got the FPV Racing Serial Receiver and wanted to know if and how I could plug it into the FC (Flight Controller) or if I need to solder it. Here is...

hello flitetest forums! just doing what it says, posting my hello on here, and if I can figure it out, I'll post a couple FPV videos that I've made in the last year or so. I recently got runcam 2 and since the videos are looking a lot nicer! Now I have to learn video editing. .lol! Anyways...

Thank you Flite Test for this forum. It is awesome.

So I am completely new to the Scratch built rc line, and decided (even though multiple people have warned me not to), to start with the PUN JET! Yes yes it is not a good starter plane, but I wanted to start with it. I got through building it just fine until I tried connecting it to my spektrum...

Hi, So I have build a few ft planes now and want to make something they do not have yet. I have this 2805/50 24g Motor (or alternatively a power pack A : MT1806 ) with quite a few 2s 360 mah batteries. With this setup, the motor can apparently generate around 280g of thrust (with a 9*4.7). I...

I've noticed Flitetest is very much a modern RC company who loves to use today's modern technology to make the hobby available to every day joes. I'm suprised there isn't a good all-in-one app out to help with things like flight times, forums, groups, suggestions, and store. Does anybody think...

has anyone used the pheonixbuilder to model any of the flite test scratch builds? i would love to see them modeled so that we can train on them in the simulator.

Hello everyone, I am going to make a jet engine to put in to a plane and I wanted to use a FT plane, but I'm not sure which plane to use. I would like it to be able to go as fast as possible. The jet engine will have a 128mm/5" internal diameter and a 135mm/5.3" external diameter. What would be...
