  • HARDCORE Pylon RACING from PILOT POSITION (BMFA NATS 2017) [*UltraHD and 4K*]
    Follow the pilot to the start line and get an insight into how difficult it is to fly one of these hot pylon race machines for 8 laps. Not only does the pilot have to fly the model close to the flags (without cutting) but they are continuously turning around to keep the model in view! Not something I could do without getting dizzy. BMFA Pylon Champ, Ollie Witt, at the controls in this race.
    Filmed at the British Model Flying Association (BMFA) Power Nationals ('NATS') event 2017 using the Panasonic AG-UX180 4K pro camcorder by 'Dom Mitchell' of Essential RC RUclips channel.

    I remember when I would lose power/run out of fuel. Everyone in the club would get super concerned that I would stall my aircraft or worse. I was at such great airplanes that they were just glide in. This was a great example of operator control!

    Great video, brought back many happy memories as I raced in the (s)lower Sport 40 class late '80s to early '90s. The top F3D models (as shown) were faster but much less reliable!

      How fast are the sport 40s?

      @btbplanevids Год назад +1

      @@NatedoGP Pylon racers aren't optimised for straight line speed, but if I remember right competitive Sport 40s would do 130+ mph ... pretty respectable for a box-standard throttled .40 on 5% nitro fuel. I flew mine at club fields occasionally and they were way quicker than anything else there ... aerobatic models with piped .60s for example.

    What baffles me is how the pilots can see the attitude of their plane at that speed and distance, so as to keep it under control. To me, it looks just like a little speck. I can't even tell if the wings are horizontal or banked at 90 degrees, never mind sense it with the degree of accuracy that must be needed to fly like that!
