Default E-flite UMX B-25 Mitchell Unboxing, Maiden Flight, and Review

This is the Complete Unboxing, Maiden Flight, and Review for my E-flite UMX B-25 Mitchell BNF Basic RC Plane WWII Bomber. In this video I do my normal unboxing stuff, including I discussed its pros & cons, and I even compared it side by side to the E-flite UMX B-17 Flying Fortress. Then I take it for a spin in some wind on a bright and sunny day!

Here are my review notes for this WWII RC Warbird:

Pros
- It looks really good
- Faster than I expected for a 1S plane
- Landing gear stays on in the box
- Semi symmetrical airfoil
- Reinforced wing and control surfaces

Cons
- Pre-order issues
- Landing gear held up fine on the rough landing but I may upgrade the gear anyway
- Elevator asymmetry and too much upflection out of the box
- Slightly tail heavy out of the box

Both look pretty good. If you get the Tower Version, please let me know how you like it.
