First Flight Failure: My Giant RC T-28's Tragic Maiden Flight

Well, this was supposed to go differently. The T-28’s first flight was looking great until the radio failed shortly after takeoff. I’m still processing this one, especially in light of the loss of the B-58 too, but it is an unfortunately reality that’s part of the hobby! Sometimes as good as things look, unforeseen failures happen, and we learn and we continue. Watch the full flight and the aftermath—then stick around, because I’ve already got ideas for the next project. What should we build next?? 🎥 Bluesky Filmworks, 📸 John Philbrick
