Essential GREAT FLYING SKILLS, even in high wind conditions! I'd like to see you post another video in ideal flying conditions, clear blue sky, no wind. But not impressed with stunts that "REAL" airplanes could NEVER perform.
At this point why not just build a full size plane and pilot it yourself?
I can never figure out why people hit dislike on posts like this... Awesome build, looks to fly great.
Tim B it's an RTF kit
@@edouardmaton2430 HUH?
@@rcrotorfreak it’s not a build, it’s a almost-ready-to fly kit. Just needs engine and servos
Awesome plane! Some of the best RC flying & maneuvers I’ve ever seen!!! First time I ever saw an RC plane fly backwards, and at a few feet above the ground!
This aircraft performed miracles! Thanks for sharing the experience with us!
Nothing better than an amazing aircraft flown by an amazing pilot!
10/10 Jon. Cheers Dom (Essential RC)
There is get in it and fly
The smallest airplane I've flown is a Cessna 150 and I couldn't imagine being in something smaller lol.
are u kidding , its flyes bad and the the pilot cant fly a straight line or do a full manuovre. lol,,,,
no problem idiot,where do you want it idiot, ,, my 120cc and i can do it o lot better any time idiot.
Always good to wear a glove when starting. Because that will stop a 550cc engine with huge prop from doing ANY damage!
Lol it will ease the pain
Blackout19 the glove keeps you from having to look for your fingers when the blade chops them off
Everyone has an opinion . So here is mine . Of all of the RC Aircraft of this scale that i have watched on RUclips . This has to be the Best yet . Both the Pilot and Aircraft are truly amazing . Excellent Post .
Dave Brewer I agree, wish it wasn’t so windy, I bet we would see an even better show!
Très belle démonstration de ce yak 54
Avec un excellent pilote qui ne doit pas être à sa première heure de vol.
Tenir ce très gros modèle au ras du sol aux grands angles, et en jouant sur les gaz l'avion suspendu à l'helice manifestement travail d'un expert
Grand bravo
WOW... a 55% scale 3D-performing 'model'! A gorgeous plane and skilled pilot is such a great combination to watch. Great sounding engine also. OTOH, when the models are that big, they're scary knowing that nothing is perfect and nice soft landings aren't always in the cards. And for a little more money, he could have built a homebuilt and experienced flying for real. Of course, I was flying RC models when I wasn't boring holes in the sky myself, and love both, so I'm not putting down RC flying. Anyway, he should be proud!
beautiful flight & landing - excellent piloting
I've seen some ppl at my local RC field w big airplanes like this. They need a trailer to transport them... Very cool :)
Beautiful plane. Incredible flying.
Thats a X-treme R/C Airplane very nice Video Thanks Dom :)
Thanks buddy. He's the master at this monster scale flying. Cheers Dom (Essential RC)
I haven’t looked through the comments, so I don’t know if anyone else was waiting for a prop strike like 3-4 times!!! Mercy! The EMT in me was tingling a couple times!
Geez, that is almost big enough to be piloted by a small child or little person!
I'm sorry, but I found myself laughing my ass off with what Crabtrap's comment was. That said, the video was amazing!
Good to hear you enjoyed it k. Cheers Dom (Essential RC)
550cc it's huge, he might as well climb in and fly it.
It’s half of a Harley engine!
@@kevintucker3354 yet same size as a kawasaki js550 engine.
Which carries a person just fine.
A 125 is more than enough to scoot you along at highway speeds even.
@@kevintucker3354 better yet the ultralight quicksilver came with a kawasaki 440 engine
Very very good, is a nice plane with an excellent pilot, congratulations
I like the way he made the engine himself etc. That is a mad level of skill, especially for it to be able to do what it can. Insane machine. Loved it :~)
bet his son is wondering where his motocross bike went!
lol no mx bike for any kid would be 550cc XD
HA i bet his son is wondering how to put actual controls inside !
Kronomoto
i didn't say "kid" i said son. could be any age.
still tho average motocross bike doesn't pass 400cc even in pros
Kronomoto
there is several 500cc motox bikes. but way to kill a joke buddy
Amazing!
Only one question though! For all the time and money spent on such a project, why not build a full sized one to fly yourself inside?
Beautiful workmanship! And amazing capabilities.
Ones about $3000 the other is tens of thousands and requires a ahit ton of government forced taxation and licensing fees.
BTW most rc pilots are real pilots. They fly RC as a hobby for fun.
Not much if any risk involved
Absolutely wonderful plane and flying skills are top flight!!
That's BIG!Nice job in rather windy conditions.
Love watching the planes fly. Love to own a plane. Keep the videos coming.
That's the plan Derick. Cheers Dom (Essential RC)
Any bigger and he would have to register it with the FAA. Nice.
Everyone has to register their R/C plane with the FAA.
That backwards flight is awesome! Good wind that day! And or bad, depending on what you’re trying to fly!
That's some fine rudder work... it seemed to just muscle its way through what appeared to be a pretty stiff wind, with enough authority to climb vertical at a moments notice...Thanks for the vid
Good to hear you enjoyed. We're starting our flying season officially tomorrow. Subscribe for more great content coming throughout 2017! Cheers Dom (Essential RC)
It would interesting to have three cameras. One filming the plane, one on the plane, and one filming the radio remote control while it's being manipulated. Then edit it all together.
Probably the best I've seen!
Holy cow! Look at the size of that plane. You could put a small child or adult in that thing and give them the ride of their life. Of course, you would have to hate either choice as a human being. Beautiful plane and excellent pilot, non the less.
Boy oh Boy! some where along the line, you sure learned how to fly an RC plane!
That was just plain awesome. No doubt in my mind. Awesome!!
Thanks John. Great to hear you enjoyed it. Cheers Dom (Essential RC)
for a second there i thought he was going to put his head on the prop
Why is this so satisfying.
Big plane that matches piloting skill. Awesome And look at that landing : )
Wow man , look that.superb , one of the biggest rc plane , so dangerous , huge and funny which make it cool machine
Excelent 3 point landing, super!
Awesome flying skills. I'd love to get some aerials of that bad boy
Wow...😮...what propeller and rpm?
Absolutely amazing!
Very very very skillful flying there buddy.!!!
Yeah...Steve Carr is a bit good on the sticks. Cheers Dom (Essential RC)
Well made airplane, and some seriously good piloting.
Beautiful plane good flying but that a experience Rc pilot is standing in the prop way to put on his gear to attach his tx ?.
That is making me really nervous. Maybe I'm just clumsy. I know I'd fall into the prop sooner or later.
Very nice plane but does that man want to hug the prop? People get overconfident. He is walking to much around the front, like its normal and nothing can happen. But did i already say its a beautifull plane. Thumbs up.
Latvianrcchannel Latvia I personally stay way clear of the props arc or plane of rotation. Found out a long time ago, the more comfortable you are, the more danger you may not notice. Maybe the camera angle makes him seem closer to the prop.
I was waiting for the strap to get caught in the prop myself, also he's looking around and the plane is turning over his shoulder, sooner or later these planes will be the end of modeling when one goes into a crowd and kills about 3 or 4 people.
wowww...great show from the RC-Pilot.....
A Go Pro view from on board would be great! Good flying. I flew R/C for 7 years back in the 80's. Never had anything larger than a 84 inch wing span though.
Problem is engine vibration. Have tried on other models with big engines and the vibration is so bad you get a very poor picture. Cheers Dom (Essential RC)
@@EssentialRC bet you're happy now that image stabilization is now standard lol
I bet it has a fence post for a wing tube , man that thing is huge
MAN THAT WAS AWSOME!!!
speechless. awesome pilot
Thanks Mark. Expecting to see him fly this again at another big show and get a look around the setup which I will share on this channel. Cheers Dom (Essential RC)
Great flight even in that high wind!
Almost like he knows what he's doing lol, hell of a nice build!
I can't believe this guy flew so well with that so called helper sitting in his back pocket, it would put me off for sure!.
wtf the best pilot ive seen yet........
I'd like more info about the engine... Self designed/built?
I love to see people really good at something , I would want to be in the plane
Ótimo vídeo, adorei. Toda máquina voadora é fascinante, desde um simples avião de papel até a complexidade de um UFO.
Amazing build! Why 55% and not a round figure like 50%?
Great flying Captain... I would never have the nerve to do that... I'm still learning how to fly those trainers... How long did it take you to get that good...
Only takes about a year to get that good. Hes not that good honestly
Man that tail has a TON of flex
If only people would put wind screens on there mics, You Tube would be a much better place... lol Awesome plane, nice flying...
I DO HAVE A SCREEN ON THE MIC. Doesn't help when the wind is blowing that hard though. Cheers Dom (Essential RC)
very nice flying
Awesome pilot.. salute
Вот это аппарат - я понимаю...Не понятно только почему киль и стабилизатор входит во флаттер..На замедленном повторе это хорошо видно .Просчеты в жесткости фюзеляжа или это нормально ???
poetry in motion.
Awesome 😄 Great flying skills 🖒 Awesome plane 🖒
Yup. Steve is a bit good! Cheers Dom (Essential RC)
Hey, cool lawnmower!
Thrust to weight ratio is amazing. If you but a big enough engine on a cement brick, you could do the same, so they say.
Nice plane, I bet it cost a fortune!
Looked to need a tune up about 1/2 way through the video I think it got stuck in first gear?
Man that is just to cool !!! Jimmie R
Thanks Jimme. Way cool it is. Cheers Dom (Essential RC)
this is probably the same or bigger than the Cri Cri a single passenger kit aircraft that is powered with a twin single cylinder engine or turbine. It's an acrobatic aircraft. there's lots of videos on you tube about this amazing aircraft Liu
a gopro inside for a POV would have been amasing
supper cool grate job
I just got carr sick flying.... awesome flying....
Yup, he's a very skilled pilot is our Steve. Cheers Dom (Essential RC)
Soooo 1/2 scale?
this makes me smile!! I Love it.
Good show!
OUTSTANDING!!
wow. this guy is Damn good to fly Rc plane. very good skills. nice vids. thanks man. :-)
You're welcome buddy. Thanks for the comment. Cheers Dom (Essential RC)
beautifuf plane and a great pilot
The pilot never pass out even in that hard flight.
awesome!!! it can pretty much take off vertically!!! has it been tried?
It would but you would have to stand it on it's tail and that's almost impossible to do...so no. Cheers Dom (Essential RC)
Can certainly tell which way the wind is blowing.
Красота!!! Спасибо автору модели, что выбрал наш самолет!!!
Единственное что - двигатель такое впечатление что неустойчиво работает, на регулировку газа плохо отзывается.
А какой двигатель - радиальный или имитация?
The bigger the plane, the easier they are to control. By far, the easiest plane to fly is the one you are in the pilot's seat. They really are easier to fly. Problem is, YOU are in the plane with quite abit more to lose than an RC plane. What's a thousand or more compared to your LIFE? In RC, you can fly anything. Owning a full size plane depends on how deep your pockets are!
Das ist kein Modellbau mehr. Genauso kannst ein normales Flugzeug autonom machen. Mach dir Flugzeugschein oder baue Modelle bis 3m Spannweite.
Now THIS is RC! ;)
I'll never understand the mentality of a model airplane this big. Sure, bigger does fly better. But at what point do we say, "Enough is enough."? Think about the hassle of owning and operating this monster. Storage, transport, assembly and disassembly at the field, etc. It's a logistical nightmare. I'll stick to my "normal" sized models, thank you very much. I'm having a ball!
well to get more real experience of flying real plane !!! mass, air density, speed ... it all changes a lot with scale up. actyaly it fly harder ... for smaller lighter plane air feels more dense you can perform a lot of tricks like bug ... for bigger plane air seems thicker harder to keep in sky ... you see how it wobbles when he try slow flying ... with smaller 3d plane you can do easy all kind on weird stuff with bigger one even material strenght goes down you need to bee avare to not brake airframe ...
+Martins Abilevs I've been building and flying R/C aircraft for over 35 years. I don't much care for 3D flying. I prefer to fly like full-size planes. But thanks for your input.
Weight & gravity have a lot to do with larger planes driving like trucks... Still, it's a lot of fun! ;)
Mooie kist.
Just wondering if you have you ever put your cat or a dog in the cockpit and give them a spin?
Seriously? You're obviously not a pet owner. Maybe we put you in it and take you for a spin. Now that would be amusing. Cheers Dom (Essential RC)
One of my dogs would love it, He's a thrill seeker like me. The other one, not so much. Cats? I just didn't want them to feel left out. You know how cat people can be.
A H*U*G*E question puzzles me Why not build at 100% and fly it yourself. Instead of making a very expensive toy? for other than the reason that states: Because I can.
They would probably make a mess inside of it...
How much was it 🤔
Really nice!!!!
Wow.. awesome 😮
MAGNIFICO
Nice small model!!! :-O
it would be cool to see a full scale plane flown by an rc pilot with the same transmitter that they use to fly rc planes !!!!!!
Awesome.
Wow...Just WOW!!
Wow ! Good skills
what the model of transmitter used here to control plane?
It would be the top of the range Multiplex transmitter as Steve is sponsored by them. Cheers Dom (Essential RC)
Im actually amazed how close they r next to that prop i got my hand messed up by a 10inch plastic prop
fantastic..!!!
Is this Steve Carr guy a Pro?
