I was always taught that the plane needs to be on the verge of a stall before flaring out the last speed to touch down gently. Most of the crashes on landing are because of excess speed or mainly because the pilot tried to force the aircraft down while it was too fast.
Thank you for the hard work of putting together this compilation, great job! It's always hard to watch a beautiful model crash but thankfully, most of them will fly again. After all, everyone needs a winter project! Nice job Horst, thumbs up!
The majority of these can be summed up as "Moron pilot" or "airplane malfunction and spectacular save." That first one especially with the Hawk was beautiful.
@@billblack8575 A lot of crashes with modern RC aircraft are because of retract failures. People go with them though, because as far as warbirds go, they look crap in the air with permanently deployed gear. If you want fixed gear, best to go with aircraft that aren't supposed to retract, or go super large scale, so the retractable gear is strong enough to work properly.
@@billblack8575 I don't understand how these people have so many issues with retracts, other than poor installations. I've had many models with air/spring, air/air, built in servo and external servo operated retracts and I've never had a single problem
Great selection and editing Horst. Oh my - sad to see that (Yak was it) do a nose dive - big ouch, and the impact explosion/fireball too - totaled.. Lots of close calls but most at least fortunately fairly survivable.
Schöne Zusammenfassung unseres Hobbies. Es ist halt deutlich, kein Spielzeug und immer wieder eine Herausforderung für Modell und ganz besonders für den Piloten. Manchmal geht es gut 😊 und leider auch manchmal nicht. Es ist halt immer spannend und faszinierend. Wunderbar eingefangen lieber Horst. 2020 kann kommen.
_It didn't take me a long time to select the sequences of this MOMENTS, because I've separated them into an extra folder._ _thank you for your kind comment._ Cheers, Horst
Awesome stuff Horst! Some really great saves. What happened at the 4 min mark - why would you try a slow roll so far away? Glad most of the planes survived!
It never ceases to amaze me how guys can be so good and building these beautiful scale planes and be so incredibly bad at landing! It is a bit of an artform but there are simple technics as well. Like ground affect. The cushion of air created by wing tip vortices...half the distance from the ground as the wingspan...on average and depending on wing type. (Delta wing for example). Or... not using right rudder on a single engine during take off and using back elevator on tail draggers to GENTLY allow the tail to come up and not nose over. Whether a plane is 2 pounds or 200 tons the same flight dynamics apply! It's all still simple aerodynamics. Some of these guys could really benefit from some real flight training!
Thank you for your kind comment. Much appreciated !!! 👍 _You probably didn't understand the title. There is always a situation where some things do not work as desired. All of these pilots can fly well, but sometimes it just doesn't work. Unfortunately, you don't write a single word about the great safes._
LOL ... I know... mid air crashes are always spectacular. Have you seen this one? >>> ruclips.net/video/EvZwJQz0iFQ/видео.html ... ore this? >>> ruclips.net/video/D4YkRh-Rvz0/видео.html
Would like to see you make some of your great videos of scale non-military RC models, i.e., Antique, Golden Age, Pre-WWII and post WWII general aviation (no-crashes) ( I'm a scale model builder/flyer and somewhat burnt out on warbirds.)
Haha you have been in alzgern on the flight show haven't you? I saw the crash with the one plane who landed to early there live and I saw you. 😁. My brother and I filmed some flights too
Some really nice saves by pilots with plane problems. I do wonder though why some people dont go round when its all looking a bot out of shape or why some jet pilots elect to still land on a hard runway when they could land on the grass adjacent and probably save a lot of damage to their aircraft
Kinda curious, how does the B2 model fly? The real life plane is basically impossible to fly without computers but it seems unlikely that the model has these, so is it just easier to fly due to being smaller?
@@bryanp4827 that's a ridiculous thing to say. Once your flying at that level, you've got more than one helicopter, have crashed plenty, and understand that it's part of the game. Stupidest comment ever.
RCScaleAirplanes I hope my mild sarcasm is taken with the humour it was meant with. I have the greatest respect for the model builders and pilots but in truth, this puts me off buying such kit because I just know one day fate would catch up with me and my pride and joy 380 Airbus would be in the canal ..... with no undercarriage.
@@GayorgVonTrapp Don't worry. Although my native language is not English, I have well understood your mild sarcasm. Unfortunately, most people don't understand what this video is all about. Even very good pilots sometimes have a MOMENT where they either misjudge the situation or their model no longer works correctly. Regarding the undercarriages, I would like to mention that they have a predetermined breaking point so that major damage can be avoided. Some pilots have then probably built this breaking point too unstable.
I don't know why those guys keep building Typhoons, the real plane design is very unstable and it relies on the on board flight control computers to remain stable. Yet some genius builds a RC one and expect good results.

4:03 looked like a real life disaster; fortunately it wasn't.
Looked epic asf
Smigol Time! What are you doing here? Get back into your wt cage~
shearch for RC jet lipo explosion
Same
How was it not? It was a disaster, and it was real life?
4:00 i wasn’t expecting that
I've been waiting the whole year. Thanks for it being finally here :)
It never fails to amaze me how many pilots try to put their craft on the ground while it still has plenty of flying speed.
It looks like it’s going 75% throttle which is way too much speed
I was always taught that the plane needs to be on the verge of a stall before flaring out the last speed to touch down gently. Most of the crashes on landing are because of excess speed or mainly because the pilot tried to force the aircraft down while it was too fast.
Still slower than a real plane
Just not experienced enough
I have to say honestly, I have done this myself a FEW Times! Mostly because my knees were knocking!! Lol
4:00 I’ve been waiting years for a crash like that
Thousands of dollars and hours of labour gone just like that
Yep - just like the real thing! :)
This comment is the best haha
So sad :(
Same
2:57 that sounds so good😍
moki 5 cylinder radial engine.
yes, i replayed that part a thousand times, so gooood
5:10 That Mig 15 was so fast that the tailplane failed, such a shame but amazing to see.
Actually flutter is why real MiG-15s were loosing control and crashing. These who don't know history are doomed to repeat it
That mig sounded amazing
Shame it crashed
@@eanayayo True, but that might be taking "scale" just a BIT too far.

Great collection, Horst! Some great saves, and some very sad (and expensive) losses. Thanks for sharing this video with us all!!
*grabs popcorn* - the most anticipated R/C video of the year is here again. I really do look forward to this haha 😁😂
*_LOL_* 😁
Thanks for posting these. Man it's a bummer to watch all these go in, and a lot of them it seems there was nothing the pilot could do.
The majority of these can be summed up as "Moron pilot" or "airplane malfunction and spectacular save." That first one especially with the Hawk was beautiful.
The one at four minutes looked like a full scale crash! Great job Horst.
epic crash😁🙈🙉👍
Fantastic work!!
Why don't some of these pilots go around for another approach. They are often completely out of runway, and yet still elect to continue the landing.
It also makes me afraid to try retracts because there seems to be a lot of problems with gear not deploying

At least the guy with his Me-163 landed how he was supposed to land, except for hitting the plants
Some of them should go back to the sim..
Thanks for sharing. I can only imagine how much time you put into gathering this material, editing, and posting.
Perfect, Horst, all thumbs up for the filming and my condolences for the pilots in trouble :)
0:35 Idk how he managed to keep it from flipping, I am genuinely impressed!!
Horst this is the best highlight reel of all time and I am honored to make in the video!!!
Hi my friend. Well ... your plane luckily got away with a few scratches 😉
always love these vids! plz try to make more! and longer once!
I was waiting for this moment for a very long time
_I'm very sorry that you have to wait another 12 months for the_ *_MOMENTS 2020_* 😉👍
@@RCScaleAirplanes it's fine 🤣🤣. Btw the video is awesome
Just shared this with some of my club trainees. Told them not to lose hope! Even the best get it wrong sometimes!
*YOU CAN ALWAYS GO AROUND IF IT DONT LOOK RIGHT COMING DOWN*
Great selection and editing Horst. Oh my - sad to see that (Yak was it) do a nose dive - big ouch, and the impact explosion/fireball too - totaled..
Lots of close calls but most at least fortunately fairly survivable.
thank you for the minimal slow motion!
I very much am liking your no-wheels skidder landing. gracias amigos!
From the length of the video i would say it was a pretty good year 2019 for rc planes
It was a good year for most of the Rc pilots, but I'm sure that there was many other crashes on events I didn't saw.
Hopefully more luck in 2020 👍😎
Most videos show you the good times but this is what the hobby is like in real life just part of the hobby
I disagree.
RC crashes at most clubs are quite rare in my experience.
As always the best!
*_thanks !!!_* 😎👍
4:02 The crash we deserve
Aeromodelos muito prefeitos!! Parabéns pelas apresentações. 🇧🇷🙏

@@RCScaleAirplanes aku orang indonesia tingal di
i really admire your work
4:05 wonderfully scale action 😊
Just FYI: A loss of power landing is referred to as "Dead Stick", not Death Stick 01:54 Cheers
It didn’t even look like a dead stick the prop was still turning under power not just windmilling.
Death stick sounds better though so I'm going to use that from now on.
It wasn’t even “Death Stick” (dead stick)... engine was still running. Death Stick , what is that?
@@pfmurphy525 death stick is something you buy in star wars but after, you would want to rethink your life....;)

I’ve always advocated RC students to take a couple full scale flying lessons. Flying full scale forever changed the way I fly models.
Bad luck never dies. A shame for these unlucky beauties.
4:00 the most realistic rc plane crash that i ever saw before...

How about learning to use punctuation, Webster
This is what happens when your building skills outpace your flying skills.
im going to tell this guys some words they probably never heard about "GO AROUND!!!!"
Thank you, very interesting. As said colonel Murphy “skill growth with a number of crashed equipment”.
What I've learned: Sometimes sh*t happens.
What I've also learned: Some people just shouldn't be aviators.
Money doesn’t buy skills
3:58 the most impressive crash i ever seen!!
Love it!

*Right aileron locked*

Awesome stuff Horst! Some really great saves. What happened at the 4 min mark - why would you try a slow roll so far away? Glad most of the planes survived!
I suspect the pilot had lost control. The aircraft was in a death roll.
@@Lozzie74 Yes likely, just watched it again. Shame, a nice model...

(RCScale airplanes, I’m joking)
Great video as usual buddy :D

At 4:04 , if you're going to crash your RC jet you might as well go out in spectacular style! 10 out of 10!!
This just makes me feel like I want to spend time on a super realistic model just to make it crash and burn af
you know it's going to be bad when your plane goes into tall grass and only parts bounce back up
7:07 - NOW the undercarriage decides to work!
Do you mean landing gear?
@@gabrielfabricante8450 Naturally - what else?
@@gabrielfabricante8450 the wheels that pop out to land
4:00 That is the most aggressive rc crash I've ever seen
Schmerzhafte Momente, es fällt schwer bei solchen Szenen einen Daumen hoch zu geben😭 aber das Video ist gut und ich kann daraus lernen also 👍
das ist leider ein Teil dieses schönen Hobbies
When I was flying, I always took a carrier bag with me, to put the bits in. 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
If I think I can't make a "survivable" landing, I'm ditching in the cornfield.
First like and first visit
Finally a realistic looking fireball and not even a slowmo rerun..?
@ 6:16 "we need more females in here" did I just hear that correctly?

On an airshow i once saw a russian su30 thrust vectoring double turbine jet land with on,y 2 gears out, was very impressive performance from the pilot
