20230827 TF P-51 ARF Flight & Crash
Your inexperience of setting up an airplane and your flying abilities didn’t help out either..
Bye Bye Kitty
Very sorry, that was a nice touchdown but you hit the downslope and just did not slow down. I had a landing with a YA Spitfire and had the same issue. We thought it was down and safe and a full elevator pull got me back into the air JUST above stalling speed.
That's pretty cool, you don't see too many P-61's around, much less with working speed brakes! Interesting to note is that those speed brakes were only found on the P-61C, Northrop found that they overstressed the wing structure in operation, so all of them were bolted down and disabled. They were all flying with them taking up space and adding weight in the wings, but they were never used.
Interesting. I hadn't heard that.
Far too many Armchair pilots in chat. He did everything right on a maiden including the landing.
Thank you for your comments and support. Thanks too, for watching!
Painting in the rain? You'll get bubbles and blisters from moisture.
Thankfully we didn't have those issues
@@dansplanes4112 Nice 👍
I like your channel, Keep it up!
Thank you!
oh dear..
that was unfortunate especially as it was such a great landing...wonder was the engine idle a little high as it should really have slowed down
The experienced giant scale, gas fliers at my club thought the idle was ok however, many people in the comments think it was high. It's probably a combination of high idle, aggressive prop, diving to the runway and the airstrip having a down grade. Thanks for watching and commenting!
Practice slow flight up high.
If this was a kit does it come with the covering pre cut? ... Covering looks great
It was a kit, which doesn't come with covering.
Alot of those joints came apart because they were not glued in the first place
Yeah, they weren't glued as good as they could've been.
Good thing is that its totally repairable. Hope to see that Jug back in the air soon!
fire the camera guy
All those layers of paint keep ading weight to that plane!!
Hope you get it repaired ok, what about fitting some electric brakes from the likes of JP Retracts.
I didn't use the stiff metal control rods as there was too much resistance. Too much load on the servos. Check everything I wrote in RC Groups
I believe I've read everything you post which was really good information. Thank you for posting that!
I have flown mine and it was a handful, nearly lost it. I found out it was nose heavy at the front CG position and adjusted the batteries to balance at the rear CG position. It flew much better. It is also important that the plane of the rear propeller be at 90 degrees to the horizontal stabilizer. Check RC groups for more information.
Maybe it's just the camera but, you seem to fly so far away. This airframe will actually fly very slow final approaches. Warbirds are so slippery. I throttle back on the downwind leg. Keep you're turns mostly flat.
Thanks Tony
Tell your friend to shut up and let you fly the airplane
Dan that is for air only no paint should be in that area. 2:13
Thanks Doyle, that's what I thought so I was surprised that it was sticky

We used to race those at my club. OS 120AX on tuned pipes swinging 14x14 APC pattern props. Radar said 134mph but they seemed a lot faster.
Woah, cool!
No flaps, high idle, didn’t kill the engine or go around, didn’t pull the tail down to get some drag. You did everything you could to crash it.
As you say yourself... "Win some loose some". BTW .. it's LOSE, not loose.
Hi Dan. My right aileron servo in one of my planes was doing just the same. After a month I finally crashed the plane when this specific servo finally stop working for good. REPLACE IT!!!!
Sorry to hear. I ended up replacing it.
Too high idle, not enough flaps and wrong propeller. That prop doesn´t brake at all....
Thanks for your feedback!
Way too high a throttle at idle ! You'll get her fixed sorry about your mishap
Thanks for the advice!
I had that on my Hog Bipe with Futaba 3003 servos. Switched to ProModler 130oz servos and it went away
Interesting
@@dansplanes4112 Promodeler servos are just the best. 180oz servos for 39.99.
I think your idle was too high. Low end might need to be richer. Sorry to see it get broken. 190's used to be great for scale competition due to great ground handling.
Thanks for your input!
この程度では墜落とは言えません。修復は容易だと思いますがARF機だと外観をどうするかが問題ですね。
You can always go around! Just like us full scale guys, if you’re not on the ground in the first 1/3rd of the runway, go around! Approach speed was quite excessive. If it’s not right, it won’t fix itself.
Great thoughts!
Throttle has trim on radio, adj when landing to reduce engine speed. Darren
Thanks Darren
I love the FW190, but it is a tricky bird to land. I flare right before I finally stabilize the approach to land to bleed off as much speed as possible and I still don’t have it fully figured out.
Thanks for your thoughts!
My favorite local event, my club volunteers throughout the year
I would use flaps if it's not windy, turn final at a lower altitude, not dive at the runway, idle the motor down more, and use a prop with less pitch, perhaps a 27x11. I think the 26x13 might be pushing too much air at idle, especially at a fast idle. Flaps will help slow the plane down and also lower the wing's angle of attack which will help prevent tip stalls. With full flaps, the plane might slow down too quickly if you pull the power off completely, so use a little throttle on final and during the round out. Practice slow flight. Climb to a safe altitude, throttle back, lower the flaps, and practice flying around just above the stall speed. See how slow you can fly without stalling.
Thank you for your thoughts!
You are really paying for not knowing how to tune the engine properly, you had the same problem with rhe topflite P-51, , when will you learn, obviously you have deep pockets, Whoever told you a warbird flys like a trainer is either a liar or a fool. You acceptance that this is part of the hobby is part of your problem. When the same problem happens with nitro or gas maybe its you. The jerk who will say I'm harsh are to be avoided. Ive suggested thst you distsnce yourself from their advice or commiseration. You lack someone who is honest, and wishes only for your success.
Landing looked perfect but engine idle speed maybe too high to stop? Maybe cut the engine on rollout if necessary?
Good thoughts
@@dansplanes4112 I have a 3D Yak with a DLE55 and a three bladed prop due to restrictions on the sound level, the three bladed prop makes it pull harder on idle. I fly it on way smaller landing strips, i kill the engine when the approach looks good enough. Another thing i noticed, I should let the engine warmup, this way I can lower the idle speed just a notch. Also I have an onboard starter, so when the plane comes to a stop, I just restart and taxi back. Good luck with the rebuild!
Why you didn't use Flaps for landing , also guessing your Throttle idle is to high
I used half flaps
@dansplanes4112 looking at your landing video I didn't see any Flaps
@@Mikeylikesit1968Yup, no visible flaps as it rolls past and no flaps when they get to the model.
@@dansplanes4112 nope zero flaps
Use flaps, and most importantly, lower that idle, its way too high obviously, Or get a prop with less pitch if you cant. And kill the motor on touchdown.
Good thoughts John, thank you
You idle was too hi plus, I have not idea why the genius giving you points did not say kill the engine when you where close to the grass. In my gas planes I got a 3 position switch one is kill the other is Idle low and 3er Hi idle for flying, now I need hi idle do to 3D maneuvers and hover but still the same, so sorry for the bad luck.
Thank you
Fly downwind lower and maybe reduce idle RPM, good luck with the repair
Tx
sorry to see this Dan, it was a great landing, just stopping a heavy model without brakes downhill , rebuild & refly xxxxx
Thank you
Needs scale prop!!!
So sorry beautiful plane and such a beautiful Landing also broke my heart
Thank you
Sorry for your mishap. The plane was flying very nicely. I noticed that you were landing your Focke-Wulf on its mains. Focke-Wulfs don't like that. They prefer three-point landings. The P-51s, on the other hand, love to land on their mains. I hope that you can fix it and fly it again soon!... Give that three-point landing a try... That's how I land mine every time... Mine is the Eflite Focke-Wulf 1.5M made out of foam. I don't like balsa for obvious reasons... If you sneeze hard close to the plane, they will break... Foamy planes are sturdier...😁👍🏾 Thumbs-up for your video 👍🏾 Have a great rest of your night 🌙 Greetings from Douglas, Arizona 🌵 👍🏾 😁 🇵🇷 Like#22
Thanks Douglas!
Sorry about the crash…don’t be afraid of full flaps for warbird landings
Thanks for the advice. I thought flaps would've worked.
What’s a man without a P-51…keep it
Im sure your "local NTSB" report of yourself and friends already went over what-ifs, but seemed like a high-idle, fast approach, and negative grade runway landing all aided in the outcome. Can only hopefully guess it was into prevailing winds too. Real sorry to watch, hope all the salvageable parts (non-airframe) go into a new build!
Thank you. I already have a replacement fuse 😀
