I'm glad someone finally noticed! My friend wont stop raving about what a great field it is..... ...it's built on a land fill and although they keep adding dirt, it keeps sinking in areas.
Very nice bird. Well done. Who doesn't like the Stuka? Despite its' many faults it has that look. And, I think it took courage to fly these things back in the day. The pilots knew the deal, especially over the vast expanses of Russia. Their job wasn't easy.
Awesome plane choice. I was fortunate enough to see a real Stuka years ago at the EAA museum in Hales Corner WI. Static display. Was bummed when they opened the new museum in Oshkosh and the Stuka wasn't there anymore.
A very slight bit of photoshop on the stills and we would be asking what theatre were they taken in the war. Very impressive model of one of my favourite plans of WW2.
@pahtreekM Built from scratch just means that you make all the components yourself, whether or not you use a plan for reference is irrelevant. As long as you don't use a model kit with pre-made items, it is built from scratch. Very nice work, it handles well. A testament to the original designer Hermann Pohlmann. He may have been fighting on the wrong side, but his plane was an amazing accomplishment.
You are correct. I guess in the age of arf's and kit cutters, many around here are using the term "scratch built" a bit loosely. We incorrectly say if you cut your own wood you scratch built it, but you are correct. It is not scratch built, but built from ziroli plans. Thanks for the correction. But I am "scratch building" a 1/3 scale curtis hawk p-6e! lol
Make bombs with pet bottles. Fill it with fire extinguiser powder and high pressure air. When they hit the ground, they explode. great video, and plane. 5 stars.
Beautiful model. Well built and well flown. The video would be greatly improved however if that annoying music were removed. I wanted to hear the engine sounds in different flight conditions.
Wonderfully done! I also like the scale look, both close up and when flying. The engine seems to be right (scale) as well - those things where not pylon racers. One odd thing, though: who the hell let an army general get behind the stick???? ;-)
Great build! Really captures the rugged brutish appearance of the real thing. Very convincing weathering! Was is all airbrushed? It looks like its been to hell and back, just how I like warbirds to look! The blood in the back in the other vid is a bit grim!
Well, after 12 years of flying my stuka, the engine quit when I was 20ft off the ground, almost got it back in one piece, but it cartwheeled and snapped the wing and fuse. I was going to rebuild it, but I doubt the glue joints had many years left in them. ...but I am am half way to building a 1/4 scale 150" wingspan of the same plane. I will post a video soon. You can see the build pics at rcuniverse, under "giant scale aircraft-general/150" stuka build thread"...
that's a very nice plane ,... i wonder if there's something to get anywhere that is like a scale built siren,... the real STUKAS had those attached besides the cockpit on the left I think,.... that's why they have that scary image "screaming out while preparing the nose drop bomb drops" ,.. anyways very cool !!!!
Thanks for all the positive comments. I am 90% done with building a 150" 1/4 scale stuka now. I cannot wait till it's done. I have a build thread on rcuniverse website go to FORUMS, it is under giant scale planes-General 150" stuka build thread
now can you ride in one of these giant rc controlled airplanes, i weigh 145 lbs, is it possible i can go fo ra spin in one of these ?? lol plz let me know
...or the song "Stukas Im Visier" by Feindflug (industrial techno) (check youtube vids..), love the 2nd music piece though. & maybe show video of bomb drops (the suggested song would be PERFECT for that vid)
So what the hell does scratch built mean then? I always call anything built pretty much scratch. as in that it wasnt an arf and/ or came in a box and looked like a dam jigsaw puzzle or kindling.
@pahtreekM lol i dont think id fly sumthing with the time effort and love and blood that goes into a scratch build there just my foamy or wing dragon. Got to get me a stuka i luv em not to many kits/plans about tho ones there is are way above my paygrade and skill level as i type there is a 1/72 scale model dive bombing me from the ceiling got to try making one from foam if i can find sum its a bitch to find in uk
I'm glad someone finally noticed! My friend wont stop raving about what a great field it is.....

true craftsmenship that should be respected world wide, beautiful work and your patience and effort is staggering
WOW !What a nice model ,full marks to the guy who built it .
Beautiful bird!!! Very well done!!! Good flyin' too!!!
This is what model planes are all about!!
Very nice looking plane.
By the way: The engine sounds are very similar to the real stuke when it flies by! really cool!
I'm the biggest fan of the Stuka !
All its missing is that dive siren! Very well done!
You're a really lucky man. Take care of your Stuka. It's a masterpiece!

That's fantastic. Well done on a superb build sir!
Very nice and gentle flying!
Well done, magnificent aircraft with definitely attention to detail!
Outstanding aircraft! You guys are extremely talented.
That is totally awesome!!! Great job!
Great looking bird!
You did an amazing job. Very beautiful plane, that kind of craftsmanship is seldom seen. Thanks for sharing.
wow, this must have taken you forever, but in the end it looked very, very nice!!!
i wish i had that kind of talent!!!
i love the bombs and it so freakin amazing you rock the stuka is my fav bomber!!
beautiful, a masterful job.
nice video, and nice flight
good scale look when flying, nice speed managment
Well done!
Very cool man
excellent work!
Nice choice of music!
beautiful model, weathering looks great, get a siren on there and lets hear her squeel as she dives, these are available out there
beautiful...thank you for sharing!
Awesome plane choice. I was fortunate enough to see a real Stuka years ago at the EAA museum in Hales Corner WI. Static display. Was bummed when they opened the new museum in Oshkosh and the Stuka wasn't there anymore.
Beautiful build,
I built the Zirolli PT-17 but "cheated" and got the wood kit. If yours flies as well as the PT does it is a true pleasure to fly.
Grrrrreat Mein Herr! Nice one!
I wish I had money for one of those. I'd really like to have a B-17 the size of Mac Hodge's B-29. Great video
I noticed that too. Hope she's still flying and not taken too many tumbles
A very slight bit of photoshop on the stills and we would be asking what theatre were they taken in the war. Very impressive model of one of my favourite plans of WW2.
Wonderful!! My compliments for the job :-)

Screaming from the sky!!!!!!
Felicitaciones! Un excelente trabajo :-)
☆★ fantastic plane ★☆
Très beau modèle avec plein de détails ! Bravo !!

awesome job you made there m8:)

great video, and plane. 5 stars.
☆★ NICE PLANE ★☆
you should get a whisle on the front to make it screach when it dives then it would be absolute perfection aside from that supurb work
just beautyful
Beautiful model. Well built and well flown. The video would be greatly improved however if that annoying music were removed. I wanted to hear the engine sounds in different flight conditions.
It looks just like the real thing !
Wonderfully done! I also like the scale look, both close up and when flying. The engine seems to be right (scale) as well - those things where not pylon racers.

that runway looks like its about to shake the plane apart
Its the part "Scherzo" of this symphony. Its delivered as an examlpe music with Windows Media Player on XP!

Where'd you get that badass prop? The whole plane is pretty badass. I always liked the Stuka.
Wow! Wagner is a good choice for the music
that looks great ! How long did it take to build once you got your plans ?
Should consider getting a white spinner and paint your own "spiral vertigo thingy"
that's a very nice plane ,... i wonder if there's something to get anywhere that is like a scale built siren,... the real STUKAS had those attached besides the cockpit on the left I think,.... that's why they have that scary image "screaming out while preparing the nose drop bomb drops" ,.. anyways very cool !!!!
Awesome !!! Comparing to the action figure pilot, is the Stuka in 1/6 th scale?
thx dude..
How is possible 9 "dislikes"? Is a wonderfull work!
Read the comments! - Music
Oh, yes... LOL
Because they don't have one...LOL
you did a great job, it is artistic. Do you live in aMaerica? i am planning to build a stuka from ziroli like yours
how much did u buy the construction its beautiful and congratz...
Why the BB King backing track?
Did you ever consider a central bomb sling apparatus (whatever it's actually called) instead of the wing carried bombs? Just curious. Nice plane. 8-)
Ironically this version flies faster than the real Stuka's did...
Thanks for all the positive comments. I am 90% done with building a 150" 1/4 scale stuka now. I cannot wait till it's done. I have a build thread on rcuniverse website go to FORUMS, it is under giant scale planes-General 150" stuka build thread
+Patrick McLaughlin How much if you sell that toy ?
@pahtreekM our field in coventry(uk) was a land fill and we get dips and mounds all the time you cant keep up with it all
What did u cover your plane in?
take that music from the background!! add actual stuka noise to it
normally i dont like musik on videos like this, but this one was actully well fit.. thumbs up:) MaxDK
The thrill is gone.....
B.B. King
Build pictures are good but would have been much better if it was a DVD Movie, Still good though.
I WANT ONE!!!!!!
is that guillows because i have a stuka from guillows and it drops bombs??
what's the name of the blues song?
nice Plane.! i have a 65" Royal Products ju-87 Stuka
can that toy have sound like stuka siren ?
4.2 engine ?
im guessing you where eager to get this baby airborne:)
judging by the model pilots face.
@damafia29 It's a scale runway for ww2 conditions ;-)
how did you get to use copyrighted music, is it "buy the thrill is gone" on google play....
how do u do that?
now can you ride in one of these giant rc controlled airplanes, i weigh 145 lbs, is it possible i can go fo ra spin in one of these ?? lol plz let me know
yea, why BBking as opposed to something from the luftwaffe catalog????
...or the song "Stukas Im Visier" by Feindflug (industrial techno) (check youtube vids..), love the 2nd music piece though. & maybe show video of bomb drops (the suggested song would be PERFECT for that vid)
So what the hell does scratch built mean then? I always call anything built pretty much scratch. as in that it wasnt an arf and/ or came in a box and looked like a dam jigsaw puzzle or kindling.
i would like to try myhand at a model of the Fairey Gannet ha 5 AEW
@pahtreekM lol i dont think id fly sumthing with the time effort and love and blood that goes into a scratch build there just my foamy or wing dragon. Got to get me a stuka i luv em not to many kits/plans about tho ones there is are way above my paygrade and skill level as i type there is a 1/72 scale model dive bombing me from the ceiling got to try making one from foam if i can find sum its a bitch to find in uk
Please add a siren!!!
C'est dommage que ce moteur massacre un excellent travail, un choix difficile à comprendre !
construction material i mean XD
man nice bird but that runway is way dodgy bet that dip half way down has claimed a few birds
Nice job - looks like a lot of work. Did you ever find time to get laid somewhere in there?
Might as well make an actual plane.????
shes a aswome plane, even thogh i hate the nazis XD
The video of a bad quality
yes crap music !
