Back in the old days we used to say: "Every landing you can walk away from is a good landing....a landing you can TAXI away from is an EXCELLENT landing."
Yes yes true :))
Life is full of surprises! When you get a dead stick… keep the cool!
On ya captain Blaz good to have u back up n flying and walking out of the corn reminds me of the movie field of dreams lol🇦🇺
It's about time Captain Blaz got some wood in the air! 👍
Come on blaz pump that throttle lol I’m smiling already watching this lol 😂 good to see you back on sticks I’ve only flown twice in last 9 months myself and I really need to get out hopefully very soon big salute 🫡 to you both , Gaza 🇬🇧
Bwahahah cheers!!!!
Finally Captain Blaz after 2 years, what a flight. Landing seems good ey.😂
Ohh you brought back memories trying to start stubborn engine glad it finally fire up and you did great on the flight 👍👍
Thanks for a very nice video boys. This brings back memories from the old days. Love it and story about stealing corn. Here in the north we run away with appels and carrots 😊
Iam really happy to get Blaž behind the sticks again my friend.
I’ve seen nitros being flown since I started this RC stuff 45 yrs ago. I’ve flown a nitro plane once to teach a newbie some airmanship etc in my twenties but that’s about it. For me at least I find it to be a pain in the ass, noisy, smelly, dirty and unreliable. Electric motors and battery packs couldn’t have come along sooner for me and I embraced the Sh#£ out of it. I’m not much for nostalgia (especially when something sucks so bad) so I’m happy for Nitro to be well and truly put in the bin with all the rest of the crap. 😁 (still, great video boys 🫡❤)
OH YEAH
GOOD MORNING FROM ENGLAND ROBERT AND BLAZ'. IM SO HAPPY TO SEE BLAZ' BACK ON THE STICKS✌🏼. THANKS MY FRIENDS FOR MAKING MY DAY. TAKE CARE EVERYONE HOPE YOU ALL HAVE A GREAT WEEK 🇬🇧🇸🇮✌🏼🤩👍🏼
Cheers!!!!
Never stop flying nitro, it's a pain to start sometimes but like nothing else I love it❤
Oh never ...glow for always!!!!
They are much easier to start with an electric starter. Its just a big electric motor with a rubber tube that grabs at the prop to start it.
What about petrol?
@@VintageEngineRepairs love petrol to!
It ain't flying if it ain't balsa and nitro..
It is wonderful to see a glow plane flying! I am very close to going back to glow myself. The electrics are just too simple anymore. Love the sound and smell of nitro in the morning. PS, Check your exhaust pipe, it is loose. This will lessen your back pressure and create those starting problems. ;)
I love foam planes but also respect balsa planes. Iam lucky to have Blaž and his passion for glow.
Reminds me of the days I originally tried getting into this hobby and learning how to fly back in 2010. Hangar 9 Alpha 40 with Evolution engine (glow I think). Dead stick! Dead stick! Dead stick! Dead stick! Dead stick! F'ing hated it. Wasn't for me, not a gas/glow guy.
Thank goodness for the evolution of electric technology in this hobby. Got back in the hobby a 2nd time in 2019 and 40 planes later (plus drones helis buggies SCT trucks crawlers and boats)...the rest is history!
Still love watching gas/glow planes with pilots who are good at tuning them (not me)! But I am "electro lover" 100%! 👍🏼
Not for me ;)) for me is glow :))))
Captain Blaz looks like hes hitting the gym. Nice job man
He is really sexi pilot now 😁
A welcome sight, the best RC channel ever. Glad to see Capt blaz back on the controller with commentary from pilot Robert. Thank you for making a rainy day so much brighter. Be well my friends and all the best from Burlington VT, USA.
Oh yeahhhhh
HA!! I recall now exactly why I have Foamie Electric planes as I cannot even find a place to give away my 2-strokes - a hundred or so....
30 minutes before take off!!!
Didn't you check it back home?
No 20 minute limit on captain Blaž.
I want to see the Mitsubishi Zero again and captain Blaž kissing the ground.
It takes patience to fly nitro birds. The skinny Captain Blaz demonstrated this. Great flight, cool bird, and bbq corn in the end.😎👍
Thanks for kind words!!!
Great job my friends, love the passion for balsa and glow!! Keep them flying! Cheers and all the best from the Mojave!
Cheers!!!
With my glow planes with engine upright like in this trainer, I always have a primer bottle to prime the carb and not have to wait for fuel to come up to carb, starts right away,Capt Blaz just seems like he is just a little out of touch and made us glow fliers look bad, guess from not flying in a while, lol
The screw through the muffler is what keeps it pointed where you want. I like the gas and nitro. Because you can fly for 10 minutes or more.
You two are such a joy...needed!
Blessings...in Christ 🙏❤️🔥
Nice! more glow please! A runway 100% surounded by cornfields would save all the planes, haha!
Hello guys from Russian Siberia, I've been watching you for 5 years or more. Once, as a child, I went to the house of pioneers, made a glider and wanted something with a motor ...
Thank you for the memories.
Oh yeahhhhh!!!!
A new saying: We will park the plane in the corn. Nice fresh soft corn…Oh, yeh!
i have watched your videos,i have never flown,i have bought a used hangar 9 alpha 40,soon i will fly for the first time
THIS IS WHY IM A ELECTRIC LOVER. SO SO MUCH EASIER 🇬🇧🇸🇮✌🏼
Not enough back pressure with exhaust loose
it is good to see going back to Glow now and again , it could take 1/2 hour to get it started and have 10 min flight then put the plane away for another day , always bring it back Home in one peace , Brilliant guy's
Great to see Blaz fly again! And don't feel bad about the crash landing, I just had a plane disintegrate in the air and it fell in a corn field.
Corn was taller then me and it took me 4 days to find it, hope to have the video out soon.
Look at Dis. OH YEAHHHHHHHHH 😘. This Old Man from Washington NC so happy seeing Capt Blaze flying again 👍. Pilot Robert good video 👏. Do Love Me Some Brothers and Alina. ✈️🧔💝💝💝
That needs one of your finely tuned 4 strokes! Convert it to tail dragger, touch and goes all night long
Dis was something ayy 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Reminds me of the days with a cox .049 and the built in spring starter. My finger would get so sore. Thank you for uploading the entire thing!
Absolutely fantastic captain B.....we want more of you're content on balsa and glow engines,it brings back the good old days were real men flew there glow planes 👍😜🤗
Man old school elastics to mount wing. Cool. Great to see a glow / balsa plane here. Please show more glow / gas / balsa. Love your channel.
I hope Blaž will get his mojo back 😁
Just like riding a bike! He'll get it back.
Nothing like the smell of nitro in the evening. Shame the engine gave you so many problems. It’s great to see you flying Captain Blâz with the nitro. 🫡
Ah its all in days work :))
@@elpunto231 Fun it’s what you had, and that’s what is important.
I use to fly a Avistar. Great trainer.
I used to fly a RCM Trainer 60 that looked like this plane. Very forgiving and with a big engine it performed awesome aerobatics! Glow forever!!!
Oh yeahh...ever and ever...
wonderful. It's so satisfying to watch this plane fly. coaxing an old engine back to life is an art. congrats
Oh yeahhhh
The video warm my heart!
That is the same type of RC plane I learned to fly with 35 years ago!
I feel like i am a better pilot today due to “quirks” of two stroke glow engines. 😁
Oh yeahhhh!!!
This is brilliant - shows how rc can be like life, with all its trials and tribulations, ups and downs, and ultimate triumphs.
Cheers!!!
Heheheh brilliant landing that ... dusting the cobwebs... or corn... hehehe
What a treat to see Captain Blaž back on the sticks!
Thanks!!!!
@@elpunto231 Did you lose weight or are my eyes deceiving me :D Looking sharp!
Thet face at 29:49 though, LOL
@@DeNikow yes 30 kg :)
@@elpunto231 Wow that's amazing, congratulations! Now we know what you've been doing the past year. Instead of burning methanol you've been burning fat. =)
Hi from Canada. Love watching your videos. I fly nitro glo planes. The Irvine Glo motor is new to me who and where are they manufactured. I currently am using O.S. engines. Can you still purchase ENYA motor's in Europe
nice flight Captain Blaž !!
WE LOVE YOU FELLOWS YOU ARE A "SCREAM !!!"--HA!-HA!-HA!--JOHN-BOY FROM "TASMANIA"---
What a ripper!!!
Great to see Capt Blaz on the sticks! This is indeed an ideal glo trainer. These old Irvine engines even SOUND like O.S. Max.. Excellent flight and filming. Big salute as ever from London. ⭐👍
I was waiting for this for a very long time. Its great to see Blaž on sticks again 😁
Wow captain blaz!!! Lookin great man!!! Proud of ya💪💪
I flew O.S.Max engines for years. Always needed to have a few extra glow plugs for times just like this. Great channel BTW!
Balsa is back, Capt. Blaz looks much healthier
Thanks!!!!
Blaz's Field of Dreams shot. Walking out of zee corn with his plane. Nice going my friends. Russ NC/USA
Blaz has the patience of Job... I would be muttering all sorts of %($*)&$ words. LOL!
Ohh That sends me back to the 80ties Thanks for sharing Regards .... Norway
One battery lipo do you solved any problem. The glow have much problem for regulated. electric don't have problem,
Happend to my big ef2000 on monday this week 😂😂😂 greetings from austria, good to see blaz on the sticks again!!!
Very fun video guys. Noticed Blaž is limping.
electric airplanes are toys. internal combustion engine airplanes have character. and hey, even real airplanes fly👍🏁 with fuel, not electricity OUJEEAA😅🤣🤣
beautiful my friends big salute from me as usual from OZ , Capt.Blaz Your nuts is loose on the ExHaust pipe end happy days my friends in beautiful Slovenia
Blaz will know this but Irvines bearings need changing😘
"'Life is filled with many obstacles, and sometimes you crash land in the corn field,, " Thank You for saying this amazing wisdom, I needed those words.
Well, the landing was corny, but Blaz flying again was NIIIIIIIIIIIICE! 😁👍
Also, please make a slow motion short of Blaz blowing bubbles!
Ahahah true..but the plane will fly again :)
Good flying I knew it wouldn't hurt the airplane good to see Captain Blaz flying he just supposed to use the runway not the cornfield😂
Well done as well for you're flying skills,silky smooth captain blaze,perfect example of a dead stick landing 👍
NO!!! They don't always die! If your engine is tuned correctly and you glow plug is good and your fuel is fresh a glow engine is perfectly reliable. I've been using glow for 50 years and wouldn't do anything different. My favorite model is an old Sig Astrohog with a K&B .61. That plane had been my go to daily flyer for over 15 years and never lets me down.
Yep that's what I remember with the nitro cars. Good flying though blaz nice to see you flying again
Now that, boys and girls is a reall radio controlled model airplane! That engine looks loose on the motor mount. Dynamite glow driver ... worst POS I ever bought!!! Sonic Tronics makes a good glow driver.
👍👍👍…and at the end of the day there will be kremsnita😎 so refreshing to see you guys with a lot of fun. Salute from Munich 🍺, Sven
That looks very much like the RCM&E free plan from the early 80`s . I flew it for years untill the wings folded due to fuel ingress into the wing ...just love the sound but missing the smell .Well done lads
looks just like my Avistar but with a straight rudder. I really love the colors on this one though. What happened to Ripmax anyway?
I had one of those Ervine 7.5cc clunkers! And it ran like yours.. I tried everything under the sun to make it run smooth and dependable. It never happened.. I scrapped it and went back to OS.and Saitos.
Tried glow many years ago and had a nitro truck. 30 minutes to get the motor to run!!! I'll stick with electric!!!
Why to land on a new perfectly flat runway? Corn field is more sexy place to do that ;) Luckily the bird survived Small recommendation - do not tight the loops when going down if you do not want to clap your wings ;)
Yep. Choosing electric was right for me. Thx pilots!
I just got 2 gas engines for free, haven't even looked yet, but I'll post later, love it!
One of the guys in my club gave me a glow airplane. A Kaos, I think. I gave it to someone else in the club! I'll stick to electrics.
Is Capt. Blaz losing weight? He's looking sexy ey!!!! Glad to see you flying again brutha!
It's so good to see Captain Blaz in the air again the last time I saw him fly is when he cartwheeled the P51 Mustang on the maiden flight this video had everything LOL
Captain Bazz is loosing weight, I love the Penteric Brothers 🎉and the smell of nitro.
Capitan blazz need back to electric planes. Less hassle. Regards
i also love planes and bubbles , giant bubbles made with fishing rods and cotton string
Hello , where do you get an Ripmax Trainer 40 ??? Do you have a Dealer ?
What scares me would be losing a plane in those cornfields, says John from Whitby.
Could it be that the exhaust is leaking when spinning? Not enough back pressure?
We still have the ripmax trainer with an irvine 46 mk3 from at least 15 years ago.
This has a bad history where the previous owner did his very first landing under supervision and he died of a heart attack on the spot 😵.
Second owner was stung by a wasp on his first landing.
Hence its still here as I refuse to fly or let anyone else fly it.
A curse is on this ripmax trainer that I own.👻
Finaly you guys came back. Welcome again. Dont know if yow are rusian or germans but I dont care
Captain Blaz, I have been there trying to start a two stroke engine and taking forever. The first thing I try is to replace the glow plug just like you did. And then, it’s adjusting the needle valves until it idles. It can be frustrating.
…maybe the classic balsa plane / glow engine of the month, kind of a series…
2 things that make glow engines more reliable on board glow ignition + a 2 stroke pump also baby wipes are very good for cleaning glow planes .
I can't believe that plane survived the corn. So far I hate the 2 OS engines I purchased. OS 62 four stroke I put on a Nexa Tigermoth never could get running reliably. Pulled it off and went electric. OS 55 two stroke on a 85inch Phoenix J3 Cub isn't much better. I don't have the patience to play with glow fuel engines.
Check the rubber o-ring under the carburetor. They are notorious to shrink and crack and create a vacuum leak and engine will run lean.
Mine always start within 1 crank. Best of luck.
I get the appeal of glow I flew glow from my first RC as a kid and for many years after, but I could have not only flown but built and maidened and landed, put a new battery in and flown again, an electric model in the time it took just to get this glow trainer started, imagine a kid going through all this on his first ever flight, that's why so many never stuck with it in this hobby. That exhaust screw lol
Great job captain blaz this was something viewers
Blazh.. have you lost weight? I smell racing perfume in the Air.. Salut Captains! #RCLOVERS
She's rich on the idle mix and idle too high. That's why she got going, then richened up and stalled.
The best tip I can give anyone with a run-in nitro engine is take very good note of what the engine does, after it stalls what happens when you next try to fire it up.
If after an almost start or stall, the engine sounds like it still wants to fire, it is RICH. You are flooding it.
If after an almost start or stall, the engine doesn't fire and with each attempt begins, it's LEAN because you're slowly flooding it.
Want more? (RUN-IN Engines only)
If you're engine isn't tuned at all, the procedure is to sort out your IDLE mixture first, then TUNE the Top needle under load.
For an idle tune, the top needle (unless it's a single needle cox) has only to allow as much fuel as required for a steady idle. It only interfere's with idle if you excessive lean the engine, so wind it out to the factory recommended settings (or usually 2-3 full turns out from closed) NOTE: Please don't wind it in hard, you'll ruin the seat.
So you're good for fuel, now check for air leaks, exhaust gasket, pressure lines, check your glowplug is tight and the correct type and taper for your engine.
This brings us onto the matter, that engines should NEVER richen in mixture, except when running in an engine, and that's a whole new topic .
Engine's only lean up, as they warm, or run out of fuel, get dirty and labour becoming inefficient, at which time you usually richen them up to get them running.
It's usually an IDLE MIXTURE needle that gives everyone trouble (the fuel) and that works in conjunction with the idle screw which controls the air.
Here's a KEY THING TO KNOW!!
When the factory says two turns out on the idle mixture from closed, they don't mean while your carby is closed, they mean when the screws finish on the needle all the way into the carby slide cylinder. Closing the idle mixture without extending the cylinder outwards, stops when it hit the seat, and possible damaging it as well.
So grab your carby slide, pull it outwards, then screw in the idle mixture needle till it stops, then turn it out 2 whole turns from there and leave it.
Carefully let the carby slide back and look down the carby throat, there should be something like a 1mm gap, it's quite small if not adjust the idle to create an air gap of 1mm.
Grab a small rubber band, or the lip of a balloon and fix it so it pulls back on the carby slide, and holds it shut, you'll get a much smoother idle AND helps for fine tuning.
The hotter the plug, the easier it will start and the sooner it will pre-detonate "NING", the colder the plug, the more difficult an idle, but it scream! It and the angle of the crank and intake time is how to get them screaming or tuning them down for reliability. Shims, compression and if you want the BEST FUEL.. Runner Time, without question.
Enjoy, it fire up!
At 26:36 I'm watching the screw come out of the muffler ... I hope nothing bad happens.
Might have been quicker to go home and get the charged starter battery !😉! That plane is a perfect candidate for conversion to electric !
Always nice balsa planes on nitro. I saw at 27.38 min the backpart of the exhaust was turning and was not tightened. So maybe you did not had good backpressure and the engine dies while flying. When the doctor/captain cleans the exhaust you can see it turn again. I enjoy your videos very much, especially the nitro/gas plane videos.
Awesome video guy's! Great to see you back on the stixs!
Hi captains these were the best trainers ever made in my opinion and best looking
