Maiden flights of EDF SR71 Blackbird Jet

by admin on January 19, 2010

2 Maiden flights of EDF SR71 Blackbird JetThis twin ducted fan jet has a nice appearance, decent power but not huge for a twin, and a scale look. The foam is pretty fragile though, so won’t take a hit very well. One of the coolest jets I’ve seen online, and probably the most unique looking one I have to date.

    Don’t remember setting them down at all, 100%, but 35% expo is always needed, especially on EDFs, jets and 3D planes

    Ya it flies pretty good for it’s shape. Hangs a little heavy but still pretty stable that way. Fans are horrible, so glad youtube muted the audio, and had me replace it (sarcasm) lol

    Some of the less experienced guys have problems with it, but I fly 60 size planes in there no problem, and my 90 size 3D plane. It’s bigger than it looks but newb do have issues with the large drop in altitude to land

    It sucks with those trees so close to the runway. Does the forest swallow a lot of airplanes?

  • warderseeker

    Thanks a lot, they …
    Thanks a lot, they get a lot of practice filming when I get them to film my stuff, but they are getting better for sure. I’ve sold a couple EDFs lately, a Kyosho Intruder and brushed A10, but not sure what else I”m selling. Couple I have are in not bad shape, but would be expensive to ship, as they are already assembled and over size. Anyways, thanks for watching

    Very nice flying and what a great camera person you have. Their zoom and tracking is very smooth and always right on. Out of curiosity, which EDFs are you selling? I might be interested.

  • warderseeker

    Sorry, I replied …
    Sorry, I replied from my other channel, not sure where you mean, I don’t see any shots from above in the video, maybe another one where we have onboard aerial cam or something. let me know, no you got me curious

  • warderseeker

    Song name is Higher …
    Song name is Higher by Creed. I actually had Godzilla as a song previously, but Youtube made me take it off, along withthe background audio, and replace it with their selection of music. That Creed is one of the only songs in their shyte collection I would put on any of my vids.
    LOL
    Thanks for watching and commenting

    Haha.. I was …
    Haha.. I was thinking the same thing. We’ll see if I can get access. Have to do the runway and the concrete circles. Snowblower could fit through, and have the circles done in a 1/2 hour or so lol Does your blackbird take a 3 or 4 cell? I’m getting an Avro Arrow twin in march, and just put together a twin smaller Mig29, it looks cool. Need some space to maiden it
