We’re back with Episode Two of our Pilot Perspective video series and this time it’s the legendary HobbyKing Tundra V3 in the spotlight.
In this episode, Michael Wargo dives deep into what makes the Tundra V3 one of the most versatile bush planes in RC. From setup recommendations and control throws to real-world flying behaviour, he walks you through how to get the most out of this STOL powerhouse — whether you’re flying off rough fields, short grass, or pushing it into more aggressive manoeuvres.
Michael also covers fine-tuning tips so you can dial the Tundra in exactly how you like it from smooth scale cruise settings to punchy, high-energy performance. If you own a Tundra (or are thinking about getting one), this video is packed with practical insight that will help you fly better, land shorter, and enjoy the model to its fullest.
This is Episode Two in our Pilot Perspective series — and there’s plenty more expert-led flying content coming your way.
