This is the coolest RC video I've seen. The '104 is about the coolest and most exciting plane there is and one of the most difficult to fly. Not only does yours have scale wings but your piloting is amazing. Really enjoy watching it.
This is a hysterically beautiful aircraft, whether it's a model or the real thing. Another immortal piece of work from Kelly Johnson. The RC model is wonderfully detailed and flies like the original; it takes love to do this.
Beautiful, with colors Italian flight group. Small notes: ejection seat is wrong I see the C2 while the F104 Italians have the Martin Baker model IQ7A. The landing gear sequence is wrong, the main landing gear legs move simultaneously.
this impressive model is only matched by the fantastic flying skills of the pilot..no herky jerky movements, it's all smooth from the great takeoff to the landing.
ahhh yes i remember now, you commented on deans flying in his vids, that was great fun at the f/f wasnt it ! nearly got taken out several times - lol . hope to upload the footage of it soon and there will be a short clip of adam on there somewhere - lol, nice to meet you and might bump into you at headcorn next week, hopefully dean will be flying his velocity & sukhoi at the show, come say hi again and ill put you two guys on one of my vids if you like ! regards pete, aka tbobborap 1
Great Model, great flying skills and great filming. Only one thing i have to say. I miss the fin under the engine where the tailhook is placed. That would complete this perfect plane.
sure was soul destroying filming alis f104 going in at the nats ! terrible shame for that to have happened, thanks for your comments - were you the lady i spoke to while filming on the flight line on sunday ? if so well have to stop meeting in public like that or your husband might get the wrong idea - lol, regards pete,
Luc Deb The wing configuration of the F104 is inherently unstable. Sooner or later something is going to go wrong - and this beautiful RC is going down.
I have yet to watch one video on RUclips where one of these RC events is held in England and the damn guy mc'ing the show just refuses to shut the hell up so people can just enjoy the sounds of the aircraft. This guy goes on forever. Absolutely no sense in it.
Great model, great video and amazing performance of the pilot, only the AB miss. The moving pilot head too much cool. Wonderful!
Glad you enjoyed it rob cheers
The most sexiest interceptor to ever fly. Great job to the pilot

Amazing, I think the late great Kelly Johnson, would be impressed.
yes max - i think he deffo would be
First time I've seen a pilot move. Absolutely brilliant. Thanks for posting.
My favorite jet from that era. Very cool. Thanks for sharing. The event looked like a good one.
...used to draw that plane a lot when I was a kid! Always loved the way that airframe looks in the air!! Great vid!
Stunning to see it fly! Almost looks like the real jet flying! Thanks!
Looks fast standing still 😋
Of the Skymaster F-104's, this is the best I've seen it fly. Nice video and as always, Ali's skilled flying clearly shows.

Strange choice of adjective.
Beautifully flown. For such a fearsome reputation the model flies amazingly well.
Beautiful craftsmanship. This is what you get when you have patience and skills!
That's a most delightful model , outstanding !
Very enjoyable. Thanks for posting.

thanks fastbikkel, yes i think the f-104 has 3 gyros onboard, one each on the elev + ailerons + rudder ! - pete,
WOW SIMPLY BEAUTIFUL!!!!

Beautiful video , good , more for the ufo ship during the 5:14 second !! must see
wow! like that moving pilot,never saw a 104 that was not silver,nice.
ahhh yes i remember now, you commented on deans flying in his vids,

The problem with airshows is the announcers who never shut the hell up.
I agree 100%. He sound like a circus clown.
Beautiful.
many thanks c hunt
Dam how'd they find a man small enough to fly that thing!!!
Great Model, great flying skills and great filming. Only one thing i have to say. I miss the fin under the engine where the tailhook is placed. That would complete this perfect plane.
+Seasparrow 82 Ejectionseat is wrong too...its the rearseat of an TF-104 and the lights in the wingtanks should been placed near the fins.
Ohhh, the famous "flying coffin" ;)
Damn good pilot....these are the kinda people who need to be flying drones for the government......
Wow!!
That is a proper plane
Am I right in thinking the slats are working too? Do they work off pitot data or with flaps I wonder..?
sure was soul destroying filming alis f104 going in at the nats !
terrible shame for that to have happened,
thanks for your comments - were you the lady i spoke to while filming on the flight line on sunday ? if so well have to stop meeting in public like that or your husband might get the wrong idea - lol,
regards pete,
Grande F 104 !
Nice
Who was the pilot... anyone know how to get hold of him pls
That's Aly Machinchy from Team Horizon Hobby, go to Horizon's website you may be able to contact him there or on his Facebook page
I'm surprised it doesn't have a working radar in the nose!
Reality of take off!!!
Niiiiiiice
I agree. Would sound better if the commentator was gagged!
It's really gonna' hurt when it finally crashes.
When it finally crashes? what do u mean?
Luc Deb The wing configuration of the F104 is inherently unstable. Sooner or later something is going to go wrong - and this beautiful RC is going down.
the later possible I hope...
Luc Deb he means all RC airplanes crash at some point.
***** That remark is unacceptable !! Take it back !! It should be in a museum somewhere, Just to prove you wrong !!
