This is the first "Flight and glide" video I have made post-crash with my Ultra Micro Radian onto my neighbor's roof. The cause is unknown, but after I crashed my UMX Pitts on video the cause seemed similar. I put fresh batteries in my DX6i and I haven't had a problem since with any of my planes.

This is a quick flight my buddy John and I recorded recently. Everything was going as planned until a few minutes in, long before the timer was supposed to sound, something happened.
I swear, most of my flights with this plane go perfectly!

As you can tell by my RC planes, I love warbirds. I captured these rare warbirds at the Abbotsford Airshow this summer:

Here is a fun flight with my little jet and some crappy landings including one that could be called a crash:

This is one of the best RC videos I have ever done. Watch and learn from the best RC pilot I know:

So I was able to get out and fly my new E-Flite P-51 Mustang today after not being able to fly since the maiden over a month ago. In many ways it felt like the maiden all over again as you can see by how poorly executed my take-off was. It was still a great flight and I still have the grin on my face

Here is a quick fun flight of me with my UMX MiG. This is probably the best footage I have ever recorded of me flying this little jet. My cameraman John is really getting good with my Handycam:

Here are some videos with of my UMX B-17 with bigger heavier batteries than stock:
This is with the Hyperion 550mAh:
This is my the Nano-Tech 600mAh:
I flew both within about 10 minutes of each other in nearly identical conditions, which was very calm air with the wind changing direction slightly with the temperature in the low 30's.
Needless to say, the stock 250mAh will be collecting dust as a result of these findingsCPT, CES, and FNS
