I have the Voodoo and use the GNB 3s 380mah HV and it makes it a tad faster , I also changed the plugs to xt30

I absolutely love flying this little bad boy right outside my front door! It's so quick and snappy with a 3s and super smooth and a great trainer on 2s! I have about 20+ flights on mine and not a single crash yet. Almost forget to mention how beautiful it looks and the price.. forget about it!

Brent and you are like little kids flying the umx's you can hear the joy and fun you are having with them...that is so cool.

Pretty sure 'that bird' is our local red tailed hawk that has a nest in the woods behind you. One of our pilots named her Dolly. She has a companion that has been named Buddy who nests in a nearby abandoned barn. Dolly seldom bothers our planes. Sometimes she will do a quick fly by just to remind you that you are in her airspace. We respect that. Other hawks sometimes visit our area. On one occasion a UMX warbird was caught and carried off never to be seen again. We have lots of turkey vultures in the area that like to thermal over our field. They tolerate our planes very well. They will usually allow us to join in and thermal with them as they circle our field. If I see one a ways off I will sometimes begin a simulated thermal ride and they will actually come and join me and that will attract others in the area to join in. These majestic creatures are the true masters of the sky. We are just amateurs.

Nice editing dude! Also great video!

Before there were the UMX planes. I used to modify the Cox wings micro warbirds to 2 channels yank and bank with bluebird servos and a small coreless brushed motor and ESC. I remember the long crystal receiver antenna stringing behind. lol. They were flying bricks that could only fly fast. But they were so much fun. I actually found the P51 and F4U Corsair on eBay that I ordered to install UMX parts in it. $85 each. They were like $24.99 back then.

I just got the umx voodoo and love it!

nice looking UMX...

The only thing keeping me from picking one of these up is the gear. Flying around with gear on a Mustang just looks so wrong lol, I would have to belly land this little guy in the grass, but that air intake worries me.

Hey Chris, was watching your video on using acetone to remove paint, tried it and seemed slow. It had 4 coats on it, so I decided to try paint stripper. It worked great. I thought it was going to mess up the foam but it was fine. Ever try it? Thanks, Anthony

With this specific plane, do you apply significant rudder to slow-roll?
-
Would this plane or the Voodoo be better for flying in smaller spaces?
-
Hey man what camera do you use to film your planes in flight?
