Nearly 105000 clicks in 10 days. That's insane. Thank you all for your positive feedback, for all your likes and wonderful comments. I've didn't expected this and done my best to answer them all 😀❤ It was pointed out to me that the Provider did not participate in the Berlin Airlift. That is correct, as it did not fly until 1953 and I apologize for this mistake. As a real Berliner, I should have known better. However, there are reports that the USAF flew with the C-123 Provider to Tempelhof Airport in the late 1950s and a photograph from www.planepictures.net/v3/show_en.php?id=595278 shows a USAF Provider at Tempelhof in 1964. The city airport was returned to Berlin when the US left Berlin in 1993 and Tempelhof become a civilian airport. In 2008, flight operations ceased and Tempelhof Airbase, this important symbol for Berlin with his long history was closed 😥 Depending my "Bookie Bird" .. there will be a sequel 😉 p.s. if anyone is already interested in the landing gear .. please contact my mechanical engineer vanek05@seznam.cz and ask him for an offer.
Echt klasse . Danke dir auch für die Geschichte die dahinter steckt. Meinen Aufrechten Respekt . Teuer aber Genial. Hoffe der Flieger bleibt lange Heile 😊👍 Du Rockst gut ab 😉 Bin auch 64 ger und Flieger verrückt .😅😁
Thank you so much for this wonderful compliment Bert and I am truly honored 😊❤ but I believe there are many more who do this like me or better and may just not share it 😉
I was a hydraulic mechanic on the C-123 in Vietnam in 1969-70, Flight Controls, Landing Gear. Was not a pretty airplane but a great flyer. The ground troops sure love to see them coming in full of supplies. The turbines were J-85 jet engines. I loved working on this airplane. Easy to get to every thing.... well easier than a jet airplane, that is. Love the build. Great job. Great persistence and patience. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you very much Tom for you kind words and for sharing your memories 🙂 It's really wonderful to meet people along the way who have worked with the Provider or flown it. However, please excuse me if I do have to disagree with you 😉 because I love the shape of this machine and think the Bookie Bird is sooo beautiful with its voluptous curves 😍 .. and I really hope that my Provider also flies as well as the original ☺
You really mastered all of those mediums. I built RC planes in high school but never, ever thought we would have cnc routers, 3d printers, and laser cutters in our homes. What an amazing time to be a hobbyist.
Thank you very Much Matt 🙂 I feel the same way like you. I've been building model airplanes for decades without all this technology and software and today I feel like Alice in Wonderland with these incredible possibilities 😍
This is how I thought my Gillows stick balsa and tissue models would look like when I built them 50 years ago! Each build was better but covering with the frame with included fraile tissue was challenging to say the least! I have not built with sticks in 40 years, but your video has inspired me to get back to it! Your words at the end were quite humble, point on, well grounded and inspiring! Thank you so very much for sharing this with us! May I add you did a very nice job with the video and a most amazingly excellent job on the construction itself! Bravo Sir, Bravo!
Many, many thanks for sharing your memories Michael ☺ I used to build Guillows models myself and still love these filigree models. I also have a kit of an Avenger from Guillows lying here, which I still want to build. After such a big project I need a break and want to go back to my roots. These wonderful little models are a very special challenge and a wonderful way to fill lifetime with joy. 😍
I've been wondering myself, they are so much lighter, so perfect for electrics. I don't know how I managed it without super glue back then. Waiting and waiting for that nice smelling glue to dry.......
I flew in these aircraft during my two tours in South Vietnam. A true work horse that could hold it's own. Really enjoyed watching your build, awesome job!!!!!!!!!!!
Gillows, that takes me back in time. I was born in 1952. Pactra Dope fumes & Ambroid Glue. I built a beautiful Gillows Bristol Bullet - the tissue job was perfect - I just did not have the courage to fly it. I put it on the top of my dresser drawers & departed for Embry Riddle for college & flight training. When I came home for a trimester summer break, I almost cried. The sunrise every morning used to shine through my bedroom window & the beam would pass over my model. Well, it warped the upper wing & separated both ends of the wings from the outer wing struts - it was impossible to fix. I tried every trick in the book to warp it back into place with no joy. The last time I saw it was 1975 when I came home from the U.S. army. Those Gillows models were delicate. Your model in this video is beyond awesome; it is pure artwork...! It takes super human patience to create a model aircraft like yours...!!! If I had created a model aircraft like the one in this video - I'd be strutting back & forth in my hobby shop patting myself on the back...!!! Count on this comment as a pat on the back from an old Gillows model airplane model maker...!!! 😊
I agree with the gentleman I'm 75 in about 12 years old I went to the Hobby Shop and they had a B-25 I wanted it so bad saved up my money worked 3 MI once a week to give him my 50 cents when I paid for it it was a solid wood kit that's what I built my first sticking paper airplane to watch your work bring tears to my eyes keep up the good work
Thank you John for your kind words and sharing your memories with us ☺ A nice story that I'm sure several modelers here probably know from their youth as well. I am one of them 😊 I hope you will continue to enjoy building model airplanes in the future. Don't stop with it 🙂
Thank you very much Captain Gary, also for your kind appreciation 😊 I have had a few sleepless nights, depending the nose gear. But it works, at least on my workbench 😄 By the way, I made a video of the design of the landing gear doors. Did you noticed it: ruclips.net/video/S7gaqClNBjQ/видео.html
OUTSTANDING!!! Nothing else describes your build of this aircraft! I got the chance to jump out of one of these during AIRBORNE school in 1981...your build has brought back fond memories! Cannot wait to see the next installment of your C-123! Thank You! V/R Chuck
Thank you Chuck for your really kind appreciation and for sharing your memories with us. It was certainly an exciting time for you back then 1981 and if I got the chance, I wouldn't hesitate for a second to fly along as well. But I would prefer not to jump off 😅The next clip will be shorter again and show the "Paintjob". I'm still working on it.
I remember building balsa models with my uncle when i was 7 or 8. watching this brought back memories. and now you can design and build from home. i can not wait to see the final product and under power. thank you
OMG… for someone not trying to better than others your accomplishment is outstanding!! Not only is the design and build of the plane is incredible but the video is superbly done ! Very impressive !!
Many, many thanks for your kind comment and compliments. I am very flattered. I thought that such a unique project also needs a decent digital legacy and have also put a lot of time into the video. I hope to take some more time soon for the 2nd part as well. The machine is already finished ... but not yet flown.
Nun, ein Nagel würde ich nicht sagen 😂 aber sicher ne Menge Holz 😉 Vielen Dank für den netten Kommentar. Die Maschine nähert sich allmählich dem Finale🙂
@@LarsBaeter Haha yes maybe, but it's still *you're* brain that came up with all of it so you get all the cred anyways :) Keep up the amazing work man, im cheering! :)
I am sure that the flight was a special experience. If I were given the opportunity, I wouldn't hesitate for a second either. However, I fear that a still flying exemplar like "Thunder Pig" will not visit us in Germany 🤥
Thank you Michael. As I finally mastered Fusion a dream came true. Anything we can imagine, we can now build. Wishing all the best for your projects 😃👍
Thank you Cory for your kind words 🙂 I can't hardly wait to get the plane flying either, but I'm also pretty nervous when I think about the maiden flight 😬 😄
Lars, Congratulations on the fine work you have accomplished. Work and discipline have gotten you to this point, and you should be proud. This is an inspiration for me personally and for my upcoming project.
Thank you very much ☺ and yes, love is a very important component. Whether you have patience or not ... after such a project you have them in any case 😄
Well Lars as a Race Car builder with many cars under his belt, I know more than most how difficult it can be when building things from scratch! It’s always that last little bit that takes the longest, what I call the “jewelry” all the little things that take up so much time! You have done a great job so far!
Best wishes to your grandpa 😀He does everything right. Do-it-yourself is an art ❤I have been building model airplanes for decades. Only from blueprints, always from wood, with a jigsaw, a cutter and a lot of sandpaper . In my mid-50s, I spend all my savings and started completely new again. Welcome to the future. I love it.
Awesome build of an incredible aircraft not many people know about, now we just need 11 more to have the whole plane. Thanks for sharing, you have the patience of Job.
Thank you for you kind words even if I don't understand all of your comment. But am appreciative the attention and your nickname speaks volumes 😉 I hope that this machine will not fall into oblivion and that the last flying exemplars will tell the story of what she experienced. It definitely deserves its place in the ancestral gallery of beautiful transport machines.
What a wonderful journey through your explorations and evolutions through various technologies to create parts in several materials. Troy McMillen is printing whole, large models, some with two hundred hours of print time! What next?? It is a wonderful model of a very interesting subject. Danke sehr!
Thank you Robert for your kind comment. I am an old woodworm and love working with wood. But I also want to use modern techniques to reduce the effort and dirt and to get a better result in the end. There is always something to optimize☺
That is awesome. You are way better then you give yourself credit for. You have way more patients than i could ever have. Can't wait for the next installment.
Thank you so much for your kind comment. The machine is now ready, but unfortunately it has not flown yet. In fact, it is much more difficult to overcome me to take this machine to our airfield. I think I will need some more time to take this step 😏
Спасибо за добрый комментарий. Я строил подобные модели в течение многих десятилетий без всех этих инструментов. Для меня это тоже был новый и большой опыт. Я не хочу делать это по-другому.
By the way, I would like to remind you all, that WD-40 is not for lubrication - as many people think - it is good for what it was designed for. For removing moisture and loosening connections. There is 15% oil there. It is 50% mineral spirit. It has to appear easily, penetrate and disappear quickly. Therefore, after cleaning, appropriate grease/gear oil should be applied. Oils for maintaining bicycles are surprisingly good. Light, low viscosity and even after wiping, they work well under load.
Дерево-это классика для авиамоделей. Интересно было бы увидеть авиамодель, построенную по такому же принципу, но с напечатанными деталями на 3д принтере. Думаю, не составит особого труда смоделировать и напечатать: обшивку, лонжероны, стрингеры, нервюры и т.д.
Здравствуйте Игорь, спасибо за ваш комментарий. Печать целых моделей самолетов осуществляется уже сегодня и даже становится все более распространенной. Каждый использует ту технику, которой владеет лучше всего, и строит модели из того материала, который считает подходящим. Я люблю дерево. Мы уже живем на пластмассовой планете... Мне не нравятся все эти пластмассовые модели и особенно эти пенопластовые модели, которые я считаю ужасными. Для меня это просто упаковочные отходы. Но это нормально, на них может быть интересно летать.
Thank you Wayne for your kind comment. fortunately only a scar reminds me of the accident and I can use all 10 fingers for tinkering again. It's hard to believe how difficult life is when you're missing a thumb 😆
This video made me giddy. The visual lines of the airframe skeleton are immensely pleasing. I love the relaxing tunes and your incredible skillset. What a wonderful video to find, this made my day. Thank you, enough words for now, here is some applause 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
I really feel very honored 😃and thank you very much for your applause. I am very pleased if the video is so inspiring for you 😀I'm still working on the machine and will make a video of the finish process before I make the first flight 😉
Many thanks and I'm really happy to hear that and if the video had a good purpose, it was hereby fulfilled. Wood has been true for decades and still is today, a wonderful material and light and strong when used properly. We already live on a plastic planet, we don't need to make it worse 😉
Thank you Gordon 🙂 I too was not born rich and have to work hard for my money 😉I have put my savings of "a few years" into this project. Others spend maybe the same amount for a two week vacation in Hawaii.
Well i hope you saved the files so you can cut us out a balsa kit and box it so we can buy it. This thing is amazing! This baby is so big i don't think it mattered where you put those servos. She carries a big payload
Thank you very much for your sympathy ☺ I was really lucky and no tendons or nerves were injured. Nothing remains except a scar. On parties I can now always tell a creepy story 😄
Thank you very much for your kind words ☺ I can strongly recommend the channel of @RCCAD2VR It took me many month, but the Fusion tutorials of Terrance have paved the way for me 😀
Thank you Daniel for your praise 😊 It's amazing how the overall impression changes with every detail I add now, but a few months it will probably still take until the final 😌
Thank you and I'm happy if my clip motivates you. A Fairey Gannet is also a really rare "Beauty" .. I wish you all the best and a lot perseverance for your project 😀👍
@@ralpharrow9377 Hi Ralph. Thank you for your interest .. I am already very excited and want to get the machine in the air 😃Still need a little patience
How can I say that I love very large scale but very light weight scale rc models ? The scale flying of such these specific class of rc models is my ultimate passion.I really dont know how some day I can without drudgery professionally design and construct a very large scale but very very light scale Boeing 737 100 lufthansa with scale flying capabilities before leaving this life .
Hi Pablo, I am very happy about your comment 😀 and that you also build model airplanes from wood 👍 From your hometown Ecuador comes 75% of the world's balsa wood production. So you practically live in paradise 😍
What a great video, and wow, what a great project. I too enjoy building from balsa. My first RC models were a "Taxi" trainer and a "Mosquito" glider, both by Graupner (built a lot of free-flight gliders before that). Then I went on building my own designs. Today everyone and their cousins seem to fly foamies, or at least RTF models. They don't know what they're missing, building is at least half of the fun! ...Are you left-handed? Over some 50 years, my left hand has been the victim. Every now and then X-acto knifes, Olfa cutters, slipped screwdriver bits, all sorts of sharp, pointy or blunt stuff seem to find their way into my left hand, which has collected a good deal of scars as that's the one trying to hold things as they are cut, drilled, sanded, etc. You're building a masterpiece. But I didn't have to tell you that, you know it already. Happy New Year.
Many, many thanks for your kind words and sharing your memories with us. We have obviously experienced a similar growth 😉 I too have built a Taxi in my youth, of course and my first RC glider was a BETA from Graupner. The world is changing and people enjoy other things today. I guess that's always been the case and it's up to each person to decide to buy or to build. And yes, I am indeed left-handed 😄and had severely injured my right hand. The worst thing was that I couldn't tinker for a while, even though I tried, which was a pretty bad idea. There is little you can do to make it heal faster, but a lot you can do to make it last longer. 😝
11:38 AT-ST, Crash Bandicoot, Avangers, Hulk und J.R.R.Tolkien.. Ich mag solche „wilden“ Sammlungen… btw. Dein Flugmodell ist ja riesig! Beeindruckend! Grüeslli us de 🇨🇭
😅 Vielen Dank und gut gesehen Alex ☺ and to be honest .. das ist nur eine kleine Auswahl an Klimbim, von dem ich mich aus irgendwelchen, unerfindlichen Gründen nicht trennen kann. Man wird wohl nie erwachsen 😉😄
Amazing video and work! I don’t tend to comment, but the dedication and craftsmanship on this video really make me want to congratulate you. Thank you for sharing such a great model and building process, your hard work and beautiful words at the end inspire me to dedicate some time of my own to my projects and builds.
Thank you very much Estyben, for your kind comment 😍 and I am very happy if my video is inspiring. Of course I build model airplanes to make them fly ... but most of the satisfaction for me is in building the model ... it's all about being able to do something by myself and combining many skills 😊
Glad to hear Jeremy that my video was motivating for you 😀 I wish you all the best with your cnc setup. With Fusion (or any other 3D program) and a mill, you can build anything you want.
Hi Micha, freut mich von Dir zu lesen 😀 und jaaaa, wenn man nicht so viel arbeiten müsste und sich andere Verpflichtungen nicht immer vordrängeln würden, würde ich wohl noch viel mehr Zeit mit basteln verbringen 😅
Really enjoyed the part about the tail piece! Lets mill it, no lets 3D print a mold, no lets just 3D print it! Happens when you have too many tools available haha
HaHaHa 😄 Thank you so much lasse, that you noticed it. It's also one of my favorite parts in this clip. You don't want to know how long it finally took me to make this part 😂 But I really learned a lot 😉
This plane is in my dream since I've seen Air America !! I would like to built one too. Or... Just fly yours to my house 😇🇲🇫 A very well and nice built and very pleasant video
Thank you Jerome for your kind comment. I also wanted to build this machine for many years but had neither the skills nor the money or space and also not the courage ... but sometimes you just have simply to start and see how it develops. I don't think this Bookie Bird will make it to you, but if I can fly a few rounds on our airfield, I would be very happy 😅
@@LarsBaeter don't forget to film it all like this one. It will be a big pleasure. Waiting for next vidéo you give me idea or review another time my favourite film with this plane so I will check for VHS 😇 when my A10 is finished I will focus on your beautiful bird. I love this flat section unique and this nose... What a nose. 👌😎
Thank you very much Rocktex. I'm feeling honored 😊 Everyone can do what he wants to do, it's his time. Personally I think that life is too short to stay below your potential. Dare to do great things .. and if I fail, I stand up and give it another try
As an engineer I've worked with Autodesk AutoCAD, Revit, Inventor, Navisworks... But so far never Fusion 🤔 But I'm definitely going to!!! 🤘😎🤘 Thanks for sharing this 👍
After more than 40 years of modeling, I have pushed open the door to a new universe with Fusion 360 and feel like Alice in Wonderland 🤩 With your skills, you will have no difficulty and will be able to easily learn Fusion. For me as a newbie, Terrance's tutorials on www.youtube.com/@RCCAD2VR were a revelation 😃
Wow, that's a lot of detail work, for such a splendid aircraft, awesome! With all that hard work put into it, I think all I could do is make it a static display model, which I think I'd really enjoy as well. PS: I'm pretty sure if you sell this as a kit, you'd get a lot of customers!
Thank you very much for your thoughts and this thought has naturally also entered my mind as well. I would be a liar if I said I wasn't 'slightly' scared of the maiden. That's a really tense part of this hobby 😉
Thank you SiegFried for your kind comment 🙂and you brought up a good point. Sometimes I can hardly believe myself that I have actually come this far 😄After all, I don't do this full time 😏

I am sure that the flight was a special experience. If I were given the opportunity, I wouldn't hesitate for a second either. However, I fear that a still flying exemplar like "Thunder Pig" will not visit us in Germany 🤥
outstanding workmanship.....thanks. can't wait to see her fly.
1966 and 67 i made many parachute jumps from c-123s, ft bragg and other places. love that airplane !
Absolutely fantastic, Lars. I love doing the same, from plans to Fusion, CNC and then enjoy building it. Hats off to you!
Thank you Michael. As I finally mastered Fusion a dream came true. Anything we can imagine, we can now build. Wishing all the best for your projects 😃👍
this is a really nice build ! It is rare now on RUclips to see someone building with wood !
Unbelievable built! So much dedication. Really fantastic, Lars!
Wow what a plane, looking forward to seeing the model restored to its former glory and being flown. 👌
1/12 scale!! I can't wait to see her fly! Amazingly complex build.

Well Lars as a Race Car builder with many cars under his belt, I know more than most how difficult it can be when building things from scratch! It’s always that last little bit that takes the longest, what I call the “jewelry” all the little things that take up so much time! You have done a great job so far!
Thank you for your kind comment and you are absolutely right. Starting something is easy, finishing it is the real art 😅
Ganz, ganz ehrlich, unglaublich beeindruckend.
Vielen Dank Sophia 😀 Ich freue mich sehr, dass Dir der Clip gefällt ☺
Hello Lars,
As someone who only designs planes for the 3D printer, I can only say:
I am speechless!!
Michael
Such an impressive my grandpa makes rc models his hobby and does it the ol' classic way
Best wishes to your grandpa 😀He does everything right. Do-it-yourself is an art ❤I have been building model airplanes for decades. Only from blueprints, always from wood, with a jigsaw, a cutter and a lot of sandpaper . In my mid-50s, I spend all my savings and started completely new again. Welcome to the future. I love it.
Extraordinary work. She's a beauty.
Thank you very much. I am also very happy that the work was worth it. btw. I like your NickName 😄👍
Awesome build of an incredible aircraft not many people know about, now we just need 11 more to have the whole plane. Thanks for sharing, you have the patience of Job.
Thank you for you kind words even if I don't understand all of your comment. But am appreciative the attention and your nickname speaks volumes 😉 I hope that this machine will not fall into oblivion and that the last flying exemplars will tell the story of what she experienced. It definitely deserves its place in the ancestral gallery of beautiful transport machines.
What a wonderful journey through your explorations and evolutions through various technologies to create parts in several materials. Troy McMillen is printing whole, large models, some with two hundred hours of print time! What next?? It is a wonderful model of a very interesting subject. Danke sehr!
Thank you Robert for your kind comment. I am an old woodworm and love working with wood. But I also want to use modern techniques to reduce the effort and dirt and to get a better result in the end. There is always something to optimize☺
You deserve the clicks. Lots of interest for good modelling.
That is awesome. You are way better then you give yourself credit for. You have way more patients than i could ever have. Can't wait for the next installment.
Thank you Lon for your kind comment and I'm feel very honored 😊❤ I am already working on the sequel in which I show the finish 🙂
Hey Lars. What a supeb work! I salute you.
Great workmanship and dedication, this video is very addictive watching and I can't wait to see it painted and flying.
Thank you so much for your kind comment. The machine is now ready, but unfortunately it has not flown yet. In fact, it is much more difficult to overcome me to take this machine to our airfield. I think I will need some more time to take this step 😏
Вот это инженерный подход! Огромный респект, мужик! Жму руку!
Спасибо за добрый комментарий. Я строил подобные модели в течение многих десятилетий без всех этих инструментов. Для меня это тоже был новый и большой опыт. Я не хочу делать это по-другому.
Exceptional craftsmanship on a beautiful aircraft subject!
Many thanks 😊
Congratulation from Switzerland, wonderful realization !
By the way, I would like to remind you all, that WD-40 is not for lubrication - as many people think - it is good for what it was designed for. For removing moisture and loosening connections.
There is 15% oil there. It is 50% mineral spirit.
It has to appear easily, penetrate and disappear quickly.
Therefore, after cleaning, appropriate grease/gear oil should be applied. Oils for maintaining bicycles are surprisingly good.
Light, low viscosity and even after wiping, they work well under load.
Дерево-это классика для авиамоделей. Интересно было бы увидеть авиамодель, построенную по такому же принципу, но с напечатанными деталями на 3д принтере. Думаю, не составит особого труда смоделировать и напечатать: обшивку, лонжероны, стрингеры, нервюры и т.д.
Здравствуйте Игорь, спасибо за ваш комментарий. Печать целых моделей самолетов осуществляется уже сегодня и даже становится все более распространенной. Каждый использует ту технику, которой владеет лучше всего, и строит модели из того материала, который считает подходящим. Я люблю дерево. Мы уже живем на пластмассовой планете... Мне не нравятся все эти пластмассовые модели и особенно эти пенопластовые модели, которые я считаю ужасными. Для меня это просто упаковочные отходы. Но это нормально, на них может быть интересно летать.
very nice job Lars ! the plane and the video.
good luck for maiden !
Wow, well done and I hope you've got all your injuries fixed and everything is good
Thank you Wayne for your kind comment. fortunately only a scar reminds me of the accident and I can use all 10 fingers for tinkering again. It's hard to believe how difficult life is when you're missing a thumb 😆
This video made me giddy. The visual lines of the airframe skeleton are immensely pleasing. I love the relaxing tunes and your incredible skillset. What a wonderful video to find, this made my day. Thank you, enough words for now, here is some applause 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
I really feel very honored 😃and thank you very much for your applause. I am very pleased if the video is so inspiring for you 😀I'm still working on the machine and will make a video of the finish process before I make the first flight 😉
Beautiful craftsmanship!
Just incredible ! You ignited the love of balsa build in me.
Many thanks and I'm really happy to hear that and if the video had a good purpose, it was hereby fulfilled. Wood has been true for decades and still is today, a wonderful material and light and strong when used properly. We already live on a plastic planet, we don't need to make it worse 😉
@@LarsBaeter absolutely agree with you.
Lars, you've done an amazing job. It's wunderbau.
That's awesome man. I'm starting the same long process. I'm building a 2m RC Shorts SD3-30
Beautiful craftsmanship 👏
WOW ! Way above my pay grade. Really looks great ...
Thank you Gordon 🙂 I too was not born rich and have to work hard for my money 😉I have put my savings of "a few years" into this project. Others spend maybe the same amount for a two week vacation in Hawaii.
Young boy , brilliant work .
Well i hope you saved the files so you can cut us out a balsa kit and box it so we can buy it. This thing is amazing! This baby is so big i don't think it mattered where you put those servos. She carries a big payload
Only 18 minutes in and I have tears of joy in my eyes..
Thank you very much Captain Gary for your touching comment. A lot of heart and soul has gone into this project. I'm glad when someone notices it ☺
WOW that's beautiful. I would love to have one. I jumped out of them when I was in the Army.👍👍😊😊😊😊
Thank you Roland. These are undoubtedly great memories of exciting times. Maybe you are one of the jumpers in the photo in the clip at 0:36 😉
Beautifully done! Hopefully no lasting effects from the razor cut.
Thank you very much for your sympathy ☺ I was really lucky and no tendons or nerves were injured. Nothing remains except a scar. On parties I can now always tell a creepy story 😄
Absolut beeindruckend. Hut ab und Grüße aus Köln von jemanden der gerade eine Tiger Moth aus Balsaholz baut.
Wow this is awesome! Your a real master builder! Iv tried to design multiple planes but can never get fusion done properly!
Thank you very much for your kind words ☺ I can strongly recommend the channel of @RCCAD2VR It took me many month, but the Fusion tutorials of Terrance have paved the way for me 😀
Master Builder .. Extraordinaire..a very well done indeed.. 👏
Thank you Russell
Gorgeous model. Built well so it will fly well.
Many thanks and .. keep your fingers crossed for me 😉
Fantastic work! Looking forwad to the final reveal!
Thank you Daniel for your praise 😊 It's amazing how the overall impression changes with every detail I add now, but a few months it will probably still take until the final 😌
You are a Master builder.
Excellent work. Certainly motivates me to complete my scratch build, 2.75m Fairey Gannet AEW3 ! Thank you!! 👍
Thank you and I'm happy if my clip motivates you. A Fairey Gannet is also a really rare "Beauty" .. I wish you all the best and a lot perseverance for your project 😀👍
@@LarsBaeter thank you. I look forward to seeing your maiden and next videos.
@@ralpharrow9377 Hi Ralph. Thank you for your interest .. I am already very excited and want to get the machine in the air 😃Still need a little patience
Very very cool work! I loved the wiring! Not sure why I got that out of your video...just was in awe.
Thank you Jeff 😄 In fact, so far no one has said that. Very pleased if you liked the wiring. Just like to have it neat 😉
There are builds, and there are quality builds!
Great work!
Thank you Mitsos for you honoring comment ☺
How can I say that I love very large scale but very light weight scale rc models ?
The scale flying of such these specific class of rc models is my ultimate passion.I really dont know how some day I can without drudgery professionally design and construct a very large scale but very very light scale Boeing 737 100 lufthansa with scale flying capabilities before leaving this life .
Incredible work! Im a fan to build scale models and balsa wood aircraft, greeting from Ecuador
Hi Pablo, I am very happy about your comment 😀 and that you also build model airplanes from wood 👍 From your hometown Ecuador comes 75% of the world's balsa wood production. So you practically live in paradise 😍
Stunning work! Daumen hoch aus Kopenhagen 😁
Many thank Mike 😀 vielen Dank für deine Anerkennung und viele Grüße aus Berlin nach Dänemark 😍
Beautiful, thanks for sharing your work!.
Thank you very much. btw. I like your Boomerang Project. Awesome job😉👍
@@LarsBaeter Appreciate that, hoping to maiden the boomerang within the next month or so
@@meakins355 Keeping my fingers crossed for you
Super great job. I’m hooked for the whole ride.👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you very much Scott and I'm pleased that you liked my clip 🙂
What a great video, and wow, what a great project. I too enjoy building from balsa. My first RC models were a "Taxi" trainer and a "Mosquito" glider, both by Graupner (built a lot of free-flight gliders before that). Then I went on building my own designs. Today everyone and their cousins seem to fly foamies, or at least RTF models. They don't know what they're missing, building is at least half of the fun!
...Are you left-handed? Over some 50 years, my left hand has been the victim. Every now and then X-acto knifes, Olfa cutters, slipped screwdriver bits, all sorts of sharp, pointy or blunt stuff seem to find their way into my left hand, which has collected a good deal of scars as that's the one trying to hold things as they are cut, drilled, sanded, etc.
You're building a masterpiece. But I didn't have to tell you that, you know it already.
Happy New Year.
Many, many thanks for your kind words and sharing your memories with us. We have obviously experienced a similar growth 😉 I too have built a Taxi in my youth, of course and my first RC glider was a BETA from Graupner. The world is changing and people enjoy other things today. I guess that's always been the case and it's up to each person to decide to buy or to build.
And yes, I am indeed left-handed 😄and had severely injured my right hand. The worst thing was that I couldn't tinker for a while, even though I tried, which was a pretty bad idea. There is little you can do to make it heal faster, but a lot you can do to make it last longer. 😝
Amazing work. Keep building. Following
Thank you 🙂
Amazing job - keep it up!
11:38 AT-ST, Crash Bandicoot, Avangers, Hulk und J.R.R.Tolkien..
Ich mag solche „wilden“ Sammlungen… btw. Dein Flugmodell ist ja riesig! Beeindruckend! Grüeslli us de 🇨🇭
😅 Vielen Dank und gut gesehen Alex ☺ and to be honest .. das ist nur eine kleine Auswahl an Klimbim, von dem ich mich aus irgendwelchen, unerfindlichen Gründen nicht trennen kann. Man wird wohl nie erwachsen 😉😄
Amazing video and work! I don’t tend to comment, but the dedication and craftsmanship on this video really make me want to congratulate you. Thank you for sharing such a great model and building process, your hard work and beautiful words at the end inspire me to dedicate some time of my own to my projects and builds.
Thank you very much Estyben, for your kind comment 😍 and I am very happy if my video is inspiring. Of course I build model airplanes to make them fly ... but most of the satisfaction for me is in building the model ... it's all about being able to do something by myself and combining many skills 😊
Wonderful. You are an inspiration. I am looking forward to seeing it flying.
Thank you Andi, I am very happy if the video is an inspiration and I am also very excited to see how this adventure turns out 😃
Very nice, beautiful build. Just building a cnc setup and you have got me a little more motivated😀
Glad to hear Jeremy that my video was motivating for you 😀 I wish you all the best with your cnc setup. With Fusion (or any other 3D program) and a mill, you can build anything you want.
Der Lars baut wieder. Schön zu sehen, dass dich das alte Fieber gepackt hat. Viele Grüße vom Micha
Hi Micha, freut mich von Dir zu lesen 😀 und jaaaa, wenn man nicht so viel arbeiten müsste und sich andere Verpflichtungen nicht immer vordrängeln würden, würde ich wohl noch viel mehr Zeit mit basteln verbringen 😅
wow what perfect work very nice
Really enjoyed the part about the tail piece! Lets mill it, no lets 3D print a mold, no lets just 3D print it! Happens when you have too many tools available haha
HaHaHa 😄 Thank you so much lasse, that you noticed it. It's also one of my favorite parts in this clip. You don't want to know how long it finally took me to make this part 😂 But I really learned a lot 😉
This plane is in my dream since I've seen Air America !! I would like to built one too. Or... Just fly yours to my house 😇🇲🇫
A very well and nice built and very pleasant video
Thank you Jerome for your kind comment. I also wanted to build this machine for many years but had neither the skills nor the money or space and also not the courage ... but sometimes you just have simply to start and see how it develops. I don't think this Bookie Bird will make it to you, but if I can fly a few rounds on our airfield, I would be very happy 😅
@@LarsBaeter don't forget to film it all like this one. It will be a big pleasure. Waiting for next vidéo you give me idea or review another time my favourite film with this plane so I will check for VHS 😇 when my A10 is finished I will focus on your beautiful bird. I love this flat section unique and this nose... What a nose. 👌😎
wow. great job. Never stop, think big. 👍👍👍
Thank you very much Rocktex. I'm feeling honored 😊 Everyone can do what he wants to do, it's his time. Personally I think that life is too short to stay below your potential. Dare to do great things .. and if I fail, I stand up and give it another try
As an engineer I've worked with Autodesk AutoCAD, Revit, Inventor, Navisworks... But so far never Fusion 🤔
But I'm definitely going to!!! 🤘😎🤘
Thanks for sharing this 👍
After more than 40 years of modeling, I have pushed open the door to a new universe with Fusion 360 and feel like Alice in Wonderland 🤩 With your skills, you will have no difficulty and will be able to easily learn Fusion. For me as a newbie, Terrance's tutorials on www.youtube.com/@RCCAD2VR were a revelation 😃
Wow, that's a lot of detail work, for such a splendid aircraft, awesome! With all that hard work put into it, I think all I could do is make it a static display model, which I think I'd really enjoy as well. PS: I'm pretty sure if you sell this as a kit, you'd get a lot of customers!
So cool, takes light hands to do that.
Respekt - Daumen hoch - ganz großes Kino!
Vielen Dank Michael. Ich freue mich, dass Dir das Projekt gefällt 😀
Hallo Lars, habe ein Abo dagelassen, will auf keinen Fall verpassen, wie das weitergeht.
Viele Grüße aus Niedersachsen
Michael
@@michaelgoede9912 DankeDanke. Freut mich 😀Ich habe das angefangen .. und ich werde es auch zu Ende bringen 😁
Ganz großes Kino! Bin begeistert und motiviert!👍🏻👍🏻
WOW!!! Amazing work!!!!😀
I would not dare to fly a work of art like that! It would be like if I bult a show car and drove it in the snow after the roads were salted!
Thank you very much for your thoughts and this thought has naturally also entered my mind as well. I would be a liar if I said I wasn't 'slightly' scared of the maiden. That's a really tense part of this hobby 😉
Amazing work! Congratulations, and thanks for sharing!
Thank you Adriano 🙂
Wow what dedication.
Thank you Tony ☺ creating something is a very satisfying feeling ❤
This is awesome. Well done!!!
Thank you Matthew 🙂
🥹🥲👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 ..... Extrema dedicación...
Muchas gracias por los aplausos. Me alegro mucho si te gusta el vídeo y el modelo 😀
Incredible project, congratulations !!
Thank you 🙂
Makes me want to get back to my models that have been waiting for me.
I would say, well go ahead and don't keep them waiting any longer 😉
realy nice build you got there lars and proud you may be she ist beatifull
Thank you SiegFried for your kind comment 🙂and you brought up a good point. Sometimes I can hardly believe myself that I have actually come this far 😄After all, I don't do this full time 😏
@@LarsBaeter looking for it when it hits the sky :) go on lars again shes a beauty
