Typhoon 2 3d Maiden CRASH!!!
Make sure that when you are about to fly your RC model airplane or helicopter, that when you apply a function on your transmitter, that the model responds in the CORRECT DIRECTION. Had I been paying more attention, this crash never would have happened.
While preflight inspecting your model airplane, when you apply left aileron on your transmitter with the right stick, the left aileron should GO UP, and the right aileron should GO DOWN, and when applying left rutter on your transmitter, the rutter should MOVE TO THE LEFT as you are standing looking from behind the airplane. I learned this lesson the hard way. Next time I'll pay more attention.
Thanks for watching.

Hey! Thank you very much for the comment and compliment! It took my all of about 2 hours to get it from wrecked to back in the air. Since it was a brand spankin' new plane, I sure wasn't going to give up very easily. It HAD to be FLOWN THAT DAY! Haha!

Hey Winston51249, It's rcfeind
I've been there before with reversed servo thing, I think it's cool that you showed the ups & how quick a foam plane can get back up in the air, and be ready for action.
I think it is really encouraging for many getting into flying to know Things can be fixed.
Great Job on a Very Informative Video!

Thanks Eric. I wish I would have been paying more attention and it never would have crashed, but it made for a good video I guess.
Well Jeff, I felt …
Well Jeff, I felt the pain while there on that first flight. It was a bummer, but now you can park "up in front", now that you have your first "Door Ding". Glad it's all back together. Let's get some lights on it now for some exciting night flying. Great job. 5 stars. (I should take off one for misspelling rudder, but, I know you were excited) LOL.
The plane looks …
The plane looks good and you did well the second time around. I did almost the same thing with my Byp Yak by picking the wrong plane on my TX.
I look forward to the next flight. Good work Jeff. 5 Stars ~ Eric

I'm not sure what you won, but thank you for your comment and compliment on the airplane. LOL
I've heard many …
I've heard many things bad about the radios also, but with my T-28, and with this Typhoon, I haven't seen it myself. Not that I'm saying they don't happen. The only thing that I've had problems with is servos. Both on my T-28 AND the Typhoon. Thank you for your comment though. I will keep what you had to say in mind.
No worries I …
No worries I snapped mine if half in almost the same spot due to a radio glitch!
Can't even hardly tell I repaired it!
I recommend dumping the parkzone RX/TX!
I've just seen too many/had too many problems with them.
One really bad thing is that the whole circuit board floats around inside the RX case!
