Title: Solar Flares
Thank you Horst for your movie and posting it. I am builder and owner of the engine ( and its flying yellow-white test bench)To answer some of your questions: OF COURSE the engine will be in a Warbird next. It has now about 50 flying hours without a single fault, except problems with the first ignition. I designed a redundant ignition system now with 4 Independent coils and electronics, These early problem should be sorted out for good. That's why I test the engine in a Trainer. Next to come is a Focke Wulff FW 190 D9 in 3,4 scale (3,1 m wingspan, 3 m long)And yes, one day there will be a V6 engine of the same design, the cast parts are already in my shopCheers Detlef
Detlef Kunkel _Thanks for the additional information, Detlef !_ 😎
Keep testing if it brings the V6 closer to operational status.
Detlef Kunkel nice sounding engine! Wow I could listen to it without watching it fly! Great work and beautiful too!
Detlef Kunkel all I can say is well done and has a cool sound, keep up the good work and I'll bet the V6 will sound even better ...
Much respect!
Das ist eine absolute Meisterleistung, so einen Motor zu planen und herzustellen, sodass er auch für die Praxis und nicht nur für die Vitrine taugt. Dahin zu kommen ist mit vielen Mühen und leider auch Rückschlägen verbunden. Einen donnernden Applaus für den Erbauer !!
Kerstin Müller Kann ich nur bestätigen. Ich habe gerade einen V8 mit 120cc gebaut. Man braucht wirklich viel Geduld für so etwas.
Flo _Wo kann man das Meisterwerk im www bestaunen?_
Thanks so much for not putting some shitty music on this video drowning out the sound of that awesome engine.
Afterburner _The only music I want to hear on my videos is the one of the engine._
*Thank you for watching and commenting!*
second. Id rather listen to the distant engine and wind noise than some lame music. super dope engine starts up like a champ!
Horst, that is a superb piece of miniature engineering and beautifully made as well. Thanks for posting, and yes, the pilot did an excellent job flying through that very strong wind. Cheers, Dougal
exceptionally good engineering with an outstanding result! - congratulations
That engine is just plain awesome. I would love to see it in a war bird. You guys did a fantastic job!
What a beauty and the sound was amazing,can't wait to see this beauty in a FW 190,the mouth waters. ;-)
Thanks for sharing as always.
Wow! What an engine, what a builder! I read that the final destination for this engine is a Focke-Wulf Fw190 and I can think of no better home. The engine is so beautiful it should never be covered by a cowl. Thanks for making a great video to share this engineering accomplishment. Thumbs up to everyone! 👍👍
Cheers, Bob 😎
I dissagree.. sorry. FW 190 should have a radial 5 cyl. Moki and this in an ME 109 That i can agree to. ;))
@@Romin.777 Yeah seems like an odd choice. Fw-190D perhaps, that would suit better.
I thought he was crazy taking off in that wind! Finally got it down with no damage. What a beautiful engine. I agree, stick that baby into a P-51D airframe, they would be perfect for each other!
Thank you for your kind comment which I really appreciate.
The last updated version of the Phoenix engine will take place in a FW-190 D version.
As soon as it will be ready I will upload a new video.
The motor is outrageous. Nice flight and a beautiful aircraft. Thanks for posting.
My father was a tool and die maker and he would have loved the end result of all the hard work put into this motor....congratulations on an outstanding job Detlef
I give you credit flying in that wind. Beautiful job with the bird.
_Thank you for your kind comment !!!_
Sounds amazing!!!
_THANKS !!!_
RCScaleAirplanes Hello, I am wondering what oil you run in this engine, as well as what type of fuel? It seems this would be an ideal application for a full castor or castor/ester blended racing oil, with short oil change intervals. I apologize in advance if the answers are obvious, but I'm new to RC two and four stroke engines as well as castor lubricating oils. I love this engine by the way.
Lemon Coke _Sorry for my late reply._
You might ask Detlef. His post is pinned at the top of the comments.
*Thank you for watching and commenting!*
I love how that sounds and fly's. Beautiful aircraft.
Pulsejet Lover _Thank you for your kind comments!_
RCScaleAirplanes Thank you for great content.
This engine sound is music for my ears !! well done.
Thank you for your kind comment. Much appreciated !!!
I am feeling a bit 'tongue-tied'. Awe-struck. Detlef, I have seen hand-made engines running on stands many times and imagined them powering a model airplane. Now, here is yours, perhaps the most impressive of them all, actually in an airframe and performing masterfully; with an incomparable sound.That it is flying in a testbed makes perfect sense. I'm glad that I became aware of your effort at this relatively early stage of development and look forward to seeing your V-6 and your engine gracing other airframes. I am a child of the 'space-race'. I have loved aviation and modelling from the time of hand-launch gliders, rubber-powered tissue models, control-line and single-channel r-c with 134 v dry-cell tube transmitters. I have followed the hobby for almost 50 years now, mostly from afar. I just want you to know what great admiration I have for what you have done and are doing. If it were in my power, the whole world would be able to share my appreciation and joy for your accomplishment and inspiration. In my 'perfect world,' there would be award-wining documentaries detailing what you and have accomplished and what were the 'causes and conditions' that supported you.I would hope that others might come to understand and appreciate how to develop the curiosity, attention, effort and confidence to excell in whatever inspires them.
Hi Peter, thank you very much for your compliments and your appreciation. it is very motivating when someone really recognizes the effort behind such a project. And you are right, this engine was never made to just run on a bench. It was intended from the beginning to power some huge warbird, and creat this unique sound. Once again, thank you!
WOW!!!!!! That motor sounds like a BIG V8 or something. Lol. Awesome video my friend!!! 👍🏼👍🏼😃
_Thank you for your kind comments, brother. Glad to know you liked the video !!!_
She sounds wonderful...great blue sky as a background. A challenging landing no doubt but it was done nicely in that wind. Thanks for sharing that bird with us.
Thank you for your kind comment. Much appreciated !!!
Superb effort Detlef....talent like this enables the engineering community to hold their heads high.
Incredible! And again, thankyou for not putting crappy music to this. The sound is awonderful!
Only passion, talent and time can make such an impressive thing. Much respect to the builder, this plane sounds and flys awesome !!
*_thank you for your kind comment !!!_*
What a beauty, it looks so crisp, perfect build 10 out of 10
_THNAKS !!!_
One of the coolest looking motors I've ever seen. Great job, Detlef Kunkel.
Glad to see that the "homemade engine" was on a remote control plane..
THANKS !!!
Great workmanship. Bravo
_Thank you !!!_
That is a thing of absolute beauty and poetry - I am awestruck!
Thanks ... Glad you like it. 👍😉
FANTASTIC!!
What a phenomenal engine and a home built engine?!? MAD CRAZY SKILLS!!
And the landing in high winds tells the story of a EXCELLENT and accomplished piloting skills as well!!
Congratulations, Sir, on a Job Well Done!!
Color me envious!!!!
_Thank you for your kind comment. Yes ... that engine is awesome!_ 👍😉
Shaver racing engines along with scat made a v4 205ci methanol engine that I ran for years in my dirt midget, the sound is absolutely unbelievable. As is this plane ;) fantastic job
Great sounding Engine, Thanks Horst for sharing big thumbs up..Tim
A 4 stroker, that is one insane piece of engineering work! WOW! Extremely impressive!
Da steckt mal Arbeit dahinter,sehr schönes Modell und der Sound TOP. Daumen hoch danke Horst. Grüsse aus Zürich.
Congratulations to the owner of this magnificent machine.Well done to all the great work you have done,and all those people that helped you on the way.The motor was awesome and certainly beautiful.It was a pleasure to watch it fly.Thankyou for sharing.
Thank you very much! 👍😉
Absolutely magnificent. No need to apologize for the wind, it takes a skilled and confident builder to take their pride and joy out on an obviously windy day to test their creation. You know you have a beast of a motor when you need a gear reduction transmission. And that "flying test bench" is one heck of an airplane. Can't wait to see more test runs and then see it in it's final home. Looks like a modified blower belt pushing that prop. I've been in the hobby/sport for going on forty five years and have never seen anything like it. Is she something you may put on the market, or at least her plans. If not , I understand, she is your baby and I will content myself to admire from afar. My '62 VW only had 35 HP. LOL Thank you for posting and God Bless from Florida.
Detlef Kunkel did an amazing job..i can only imagine the work it took to get it to this stage.....I love the way the Germans are so passionate about their RC and are world leaders at it......they amaze me. I worked in Nixdorf computers when I was a young man and everything the Germans do is like clockwork...great discipline....why am I not surprised this guy made this piece of art. It makes the plane look out of place :)....has to go into a warbird.
Thank you for your great comment which I really appreciate.
The newest V4 goes into a large Messerschmitt Bf 109 ... not sure when it will be ready.
You did a wonderful job on this plane! Good going! 👍🏼
I normally don't care for rc planes without a cowl cover the engine, but it would be a crime to cover that beauty up. It sounds great too.
Sounds amazing!
Thanks to Detlef's turbulator I have two great running Moki 215's. I have not personally met him but, through communications, he is a great guy. Hey Detlef, I got a Moki 257 and it is a marvelous engine! Tom from US.
Hi Tom, Thanks for the kind words. Nice to hear from You. Small world this is .-) I still wonder why you no not fly a Phoenix engine (yet) :-)
Just seen this video, great work on the engine. Ever thought of making a scale Merlin. Thanks for this 👍🏻
_Thank you for your kind comment !!!_ 😎👍
Technische Meisterleistung! Völlig unverständlich warum hier negative Bewertungen auftauchen.
Markus Sieber *_Vielen Dank für das Lob!_*
Die negativen Bewertungen sind mir völlig egal. Wie's aussieht, sind es entweder Neider, oder Leute die nur schauen, ohne zu lesen.
Hier geht's um den Motor und nicht um den extra dafür entwickelten Flieger.
Na ja ... ist halt so 😎
@@RCScaleAirplanes hierzu noch ein Daumen nach oben! Respekt für die Meisterleistung !!!
@@HDMicha38 *_Dankeschön_* 😎✌
Amazing plane and engine. Props to the guy shooting the video, great job!!!
Thank you so much. Glad you enjoyed the flight. 🤙😎
you deserve an award
Modellbau und Ingenieursarbeit vom absolut Feinsten! Ich konnte den Motor in Dachau begutachten und hören! Einfach unglaublich! 👍👍👍🤗
_Da stimme ich dir vollkommen zu. Detlef hat ein super Motörchen gebaut._ 👍😉
Danke Jungs.In der kommenden Saison hat der Motor dann endlich die neuen Köpfe drauf die schon so lange hier auf Ihren Einsatz warten. Eine abgestimmte Straight flow 4-1 Auspuffanlage bekommt er dann auch spendiert. Freu mich auf DEN Sound :-)
@@detlefkunkel7911 wird sicher gut 👍😉
You guys have taken RC planes to a different dimension and your own engine, AWESOME !
One of the best home built engines I have ever seen. Absoloutly beautiful detail.
Ron, thank you very much
Ronald, Thank you Sir :-)
That engine on a go kart would be the pinnacle of cool. Some peoples talent blows my mind👍
Wow!!!!!!! 1000% genius invention. Big salute
BIG THANKS !!!
To say I'm impressed is a gross understatement.
Loved watching this engine come together on RCSB, and of course his other models... a modeler apart!
Superb quality engineering. The best sounding r/c plane on RUclips!
An engine Cowling would finish that plane off nicely..
Thank you very much!
I own 2 V-4 motorcycles and your airplane has that wonderful sound. Superior engineering!
Thank you very much 🤙😎
James, to be honest, my Honda VFR750 and my Yamaha Vmax were the inspiration for this concept. Exactly because you do not notice the high crankshft rpm so much, compared to an inline engine. The idea was not to sound like a Testarossa in LeMans, but like a big airplane engine.
Thanks for your comment
WOW, what an accomplishment. Thank you for this video!
Hey Horst, wieder setzt Du zwei tolle Modellbauerprodukte sehr gut in Scene. Einfach Klasse, was die Modellbaukollegen so alles fertig bringen. Und durch Deine exakt Arbeit können wsir das alle sehen. Danke dafür. Der Peter von Usedom
Definitely sounds like it belongs in the great FW-190 D. Great work and SOUND ;-)
That's The Best Flying Duccati I've Ever Heard or Seen! That Sounds A'flippin'mazing! And Powered Through That Wind So Easily! Orders For These Are Going To Skyrocket! ✈🇺🇸
_Thank you for your kind comment, which I really appreciate !_ 👍🏼

It is the reduction gear that really makes it possible to put all of the engine power to the wind mill.
Correct, that was the idea behind the engine. A powerful engine able to give a high power output at high rpm, but NOT sounding like a small model engine at race- like rpm. With the V4-Concept, it worked out pretty nicely. You would not guess that the engine goes over 10.000 rpm in flight ( high power version only, not the one in this video)
that engine built itself?!?!? thats a badass motor for having incarnated and morphed from aluminum that was just scattered around in the dirt, i wish a motor for my truck with 750 horsepower and 1,000 ftlbs of torque would build itself and install itself in my truck
Very impressive engine. Congratulations and well done to the builder.
Sweet! Look at the high winds. Seemingly effortless flight in strong wind conditions.
_Thank you for your kind comment. Much appreciated !_ 😎👍
WOW!!! Love that engine. A closeup of the engine looks like a real full-scale engine for a crop duster.
Time to build one you can get in and fly, the design seems to work very well!!!
One of the best RC planes on youtube!
Sounds awesome, and it cuts through the high wind very well too.
What skill and craftsmanship.Love that distinct V sound.
It's got a nice sound to it and flies well in the wind. I especially like the belt drive as it looks like a blower
The sound of this engine is unbelievable!! Great work!!
That thing sounds sick!
_THANKS !_ 🤙😎
Wow! Very nice plane and engine! Love the sound and performance of it!
_Thank you for your great comment!_ 😉👍
Absolument pharaonique
Un v4 en modélisme du travail de spécialiste passionnés
Amazing, the sound is amazing, spectacular, thanks for the video. Congratulation to Detlef Kunkel for his engine.
Great engineering sounds fantastic MODELERS like this is a credit to our hobby. Well done all round. 👍
Thank you John :-)
Breezy as hell, and this high wing never noticed it.
Excelente demostración del vuelo de la avioneta rc y de quienes la operaron/condujeron 👍🏼🛩️🤜🏼🤛🏼.
Thank you !!!
And the award for best sounding RC plane goes to...
*_THANKS !!!_*
Well done indeed in such windy conditions 🇬🇧
So neat with the nav and landing lights. Beautiful engine, sounds like a '32 Ford V flat-head.
Awesome job on this project, love the sound
Thanks a lot. Glad you enjoyed it. 👍😎
Awesome !! I love the engine sounds
I do like the sound of that engine . Seems to have good power also .
The engine runs as good as it looks, nice work. Plus the camera work was some of the best I have seen on RUclips 👍
Thank you very much! Glad you enjoyed it. 👍😎
Looks and sounds fantastic, great work!
I love that engine it sounds like a drag car engine with the blower on it it so cool.🤠
Great video. Please do NOT apologize for the wind noise. Totally not your fault.
Judging by the wind sock (and corn) wind was rather nasty ... makes flying very tricky, not to mention getting it landed!. Definitely wise to test in the high wing plane.
The engine is just incredible - as a machinist I can well imagine the immense work gone into it.
That engine is legit, and it sounds great!
Ein wahrer Traum. Großartig!
Vielen Dank !
This extraordinary clip has excelled. I am a well qualified TV employee. This film clip is the Very Best camera footage for a casual users operator that I have ever seen. The model aircraft as the subject was followed with incredible accuracy but with a very gentle approach. The cameraman led me around the sky with his object, the model aircraft. Uncommonly good and stunning in its visual impact. Is this the very best? Congratulations RCScaleAirplanes, a very impressive video posting. Many Likes.
Waaaas für ein toller Motor!!!!! Und das auch noch mit klasse Getriebe. GRATULATION!!!! Santa, I want one.... :-)
Thank you freddy for your kind words. I will talk to Santa to bring you one :-)
Incredible build
THANKS !
As most RC pilots...he doesn't use cross controls for cross wind landings and takeoffs. Very few even use right rudder on take off. to counteract torque. It would be nice to see someone adept enough to fly realistically. Most just blast down the runway and into the air unrealistically so as not to go off the runway. Nice engine..lovely work...good job.
I recognize his skill as a builder as well as his lack of skill as a pilot. I'm 80 years old and have been flying full and large scale aircraft for over 60 years. I have the FAA's Orville and Wilbur Wright "Master Pilot" award and feel real good about myself. If you build scale...why ruin the effect by not flying fly scale?
I understand what you're saying and it is a valid point. Also, my first thought upon seeing those high-speed passes was "holy smokes, I hope that h-stab has an airfoil cross-section and is not flat" although from the close-up camera shots early on it appears to be flat. That is one absolutely beautiful motor and engineering tour de force, and it'd be a shame to lose it to a Vne elevator flutter. Please don't take this as criticism but as a point of fact; I'd dearly love to see this motor in a warbird someday!
Absolutely beautiful airplane and the engine on this bird is truly a work of art. Beautiful flight, great sounding and strong engine perfect landing 😊👍👍 💯%
Couldn't agree more! Thank you for your kind comment.
@@RCScaleAirplanes Your very welcome. Would be awesome if he made a little turbocharger or supercharger for it.
That sound blew me away!
Thank you sir!
Excellent engineering, I wish I had skills like that.Well done
Köszönöm ezt csodálatos bemutatót !
Finally, some one putscone in a plane, not a car! That's one beautiful sounding engine.
The fact you even took the time to incorporate a duel electronic ignition says airplane all over it. Even the Wright Brothers would've been proud of that baby. Can you imagine if they had our technology to build back then like we do today? That glider they built back then would have ended up in a trash can before it even got off paper. I was impressed with your flying skills too. This is why we are fighting the FAA right now concerning their unreasonable regulations asking for RDF identification beacons in all of our RC planes. Who would want to take the time to build something like that? Where would we be in the future if guys like you ciuldnt try your inventions. This whole proposal will cripple the RC hobby and destroy any future aviation has because of a draconian regulation.
_Thank you for your kind comment, which I really appreciate !!!_
In Germany, an identifier (a nameplate that contains the membership number, name and telephone number) has been mandatory for a few years.
This has nothing to do with surveillance, but rather an assignment of the model to the owner / pilot, in the event of an accident or violation of the airspace (especially with drones).
Indeed , original made and original sound !!! Great !
t yawoyorozuyo _Thank you for watching and commenting!_
That engine sounds incredible.
A great greeting for everyone from Buenos Aires Argentina👍👍👍👍
Thank you !
That looks and sounds AMAZING. Pulled through that pretty strong wind no problem. Well done
Thank you dave :-)
Detlef Kunkel you are welcome
Great sounding engine! Superb manipulation of the controls! You are to be congratulated, sir.
