Was great to see a boat in there. I'm a boat person myself- it's not easy for me to get somewhere I can fly as opposed to sailing (also spending a thousand or more hours on a single model to have it looking fantastic isn't as likely to be spoiled by a nasty crash!). That being said, I do think model planes are great and this is a really good channel at showing them off.

Alex, you're by far my favorite addition to the flitetest crew. You obviously learned multi fpv from the king, David. I also LOVE the rc boat footage! Fanatic job capturing the 3 best rc hobbies at once! (Multi, fixed, and boat). I never miss a show! Spectacular episode!

Alex you're a brAve man flying that Blackout over that lake! You must be very confident in your quad to do that. I've flown over a narrow, shallow river and I was terrified that I'd lose it. Way to not crash and sink!

Alex, flying fpv over water can be scary at first but there are some tips. 1) be confident. If you lose confidence, you'll panic and over water, it's a disaster. 2) know your craft. Know how much throttle you need to stay airborne and the maximum lean angle before you dive. You do not want to dive close to the water. 3) look for a landmark on your vision to judge wherever possible. I've done it alot and those should get you started though I must say I am no expert.

Great video and review. Thanks. Unless I misunderstood Peter, I think he said at 6:57 the Tidewater is a float plane vs a seaplane. A float plane is a plane that uses floats. A seaplane uses is fuselage to float... like a boat. The Tidewater is technically seaplane.

Hey Guys! You're a little late in getting around to this plane. We flew these all last summer. Excellent plane! We (our flying group) were paying $169 for PNF. What you don't know is that this plane does an unbelievable somersault if you invert it, then give it about 70% throttle while pushing, and holding full down elevator. Make sure you have some altitude! Recovery; just pull back throttle, let the sticks go neutral, ease on some power, then fly out. Warning! It can be a little hard on the airframe. I damaged an elev. servo, got it down ok though. Have fun with it!

Seaplane = normal plane fitted with 1 or 2 floats , floats above the water , Flyingboat= fuselage is boat shaped at the bottom and designed to float IN the water . You can see the difference , CUB = Seaplane , OTTER = Flyingboat .

Great stuff guyz. It is about time you did something on the water. I think Float Flying is the icing on the cake for RC flying. Not everyone likes but if you do it is soooo much fun. How did you balance your prop and spinner? Several people I know had props fly off. For the longest time you could not get a replacement prop.

@ 6:55 the Tidewater´s described as a "floatplane rather than a seaplane". I think that should read "flying boat" where he said "float plane". I´m not saying this just to indulge a pedantic streak; these little slips can translate to confusion at the hobby store and possible grave disappointment so it´s worth mentioning.

TDCtactical Yeah, you tend to notice things that fall within your line of work. (I knew it was a casing, but can't tell what at a glance without holding it). I work with computers, so I've recognized a few cleverly re-used molex connecters here and there. Honestly, it's brass, to a casing makes a nice looking smokestack, if I do say so myself. (At least FoamandTape didn't use Federal 'brass', the aluminum would have looked awful)
