B36 Maiden Flight P&DARCS October 13 2018
This nearly 6 mtr wingspan 65 Kg B36 'Peacemaker' was scratch built by Andrew Smallridge and Ivan Chiselett from a design by Kevin Chiselett and Andrew Smallridge. It has taken 5 years to build and underwent it's maiden flight October 13 2018 at P&DARCS club in Melbourne Australia. Test pilot was World Champion and club member David Law. On-going support and assistance by Paul Somerville.
The model is 1/12 scale (230inch wingspan) and has 6 electric motors and four 65mm EDF units.The B-36 manufactured by Convair is the largest mass-produced piston-engined aircraft ever built and was in operation 1949 - 1959.

Built by Rick Talman this is a 1/3 scale of a engine that was originally made in 1912 by the Red wing Motor Company of Minnesota. The kit comes as unmachined castings which have to be machined plus other parts and studs and nuts. It took Rick about 300 hours to complete. This is the first test and only requires a few adjustments before the next test.

This is the second systems test of the B36. Engines, undercarriage and steering were tested under taxiing only.

    2827 was the last B-36 built. In 1959 it was retired and put on display at Greater Southwest Airport in Ft Worth. In the late 70s I was part of the crew that disassembled her to move across town to Carswell AFB, where she remained until the USAF transferred custodianship to the Pima Air Museum, where she is today.

      @@rogersmith7396 It could drop nearly the full weight of two armed and loaded, fully fueled complete B-17s out of its bomb bay. It could fly a mile higher than an ME-109. It was designed to fly from Canada to Berlin and back on a bombing run. (In case the Battle of Britain went badly.) And Dad saw it on the drawing board at Consolidated Aircraft in 1941, before the U.S. entered the war, when it was still a secret project. But yeah, it had some technical issues. 🙂 For example, it originally had huge tires for wheels before they invented the multi-wheel trucks for the landing gear. And the jets were to get it rolling fast enough on the ground to take off in a decent distance and climb in a decent amount of time. They were shut down in flight. And adding them had to wait until jets were, like, invented, during the war.

      @@ThatBoomerDude56 SAC Omaha has the original landing gear. The tires are 8 to 10 feet tall. They also have a Goblin, said to fly pretty well. A 36 carried a nuclear reactor, dropped an A bomb on Albequerque, could fly far higher than a MiG 15, could stay up 36 hours. The prototype did'nt have the dog house on top it looked like a B 29. The plane is jammed full of tube type ECM. A crewman could get into the wings to inspect the engines. They had remote operated turrets which were later removed to increase altitude. No arial refueling. 10,000 mile range. Deicers in the propellers.

      @@rogersmith7396 That's cool. (Well, except for the Albuquerque incident. I hadn't heard about that one.) Dad said a person could not only get into the wings, but could stand up inside. (He was only 5'8". I'm not sure how high the space was.) And he said that part of its ECM was a chaff dispenser in the back of the plane connected to 3 rolls of aluminum foil each 3' in diameter that made the thing look like a solid wall across the sky on radar. (I found a picture of the chaff dispenser slot once, but can't find it now.) He told me about the B-36N (nuclear) experiment when I was a kid. That sounds to me like a really dumb idea now. But I hadn't realized until recently that the GE engine for it actually proceeded to ground-test before Kennedy killed the project.

      @@ThatBoomerDude56 The problem was with a crew safe nuclear reactor there was no weight for bombs. It was called the hole in the head bomber. Never heard how it was supposed to work but I assume steam turbines would turn the props and the reactor would make steam. There is a crewman interview at Castle AFB/museum which settles a lot of the planes controversy. It could fly at 63000 feet and often went over the USSR. They would sleep when over the USSR it was invulnerable. Also he laughs at going into the wings to oil the engines. He says they take hundreds of gallons of oil and their is no way a guy could get that to them.
