Actually, it wasn't a bad crash. IF your foam breaks instead of smushes, you're fine. You can repair smooshed foam, but it's never pretty. But this crash, eh, he should be able to get things back to 95%

That sucks man . But don’t stop flying because of that you are a good pilot and sometimes bad corn fields happen ... it happens to all of us . Get your head rite and get back up in the air ..great video.
@@jacklets3851 what he's saying is they are charging $500 for $1 of foam and less than $100 in electronics wholesale. But economics dictate that a product is worth what people are willing to pay for it, and clearly people are willing to pay $500 for $100 worth of parts so $500 it is.
@@bkpickell I mean that’s pretty much how all purchases work. And your not just buying the foam and electronics. A team had to sit down and design the whole plane which probably took months to do so
EDF jets require speed to maintain stable flight. For the landing you need to come in hot, you need to use flaps and you gotta be ready to flare at the right moment to put the wheels down softly. No other way around it. I didn't see any flaps being used in this video. It happens, I've done it.
I've also flown around corn before with Sticks and slower planes. That Corn, it's just not forgiving. I prefer Soybeans, green is best. Kinda a tall, soft blanket to land on top of. Even vertical can be decent. Bit of a pain swimming out there to retrieve. But corn? That stuff just flails away till you got nothing but pieces.
@@williamcrane8236 That has to be the worst place to fly out of that I’ve seen. Is that the best they have around there? There has to be something better. Way too narrow and way too many obstacles.

@@matthewbalkema792 how does that help if theres an unforeseen problem? High speed low passes are EXACTLY when a problem is most likely to occur. A catastrophic failure at low level pointed in a safe direction never hurt anyone. Lose a servo horn or radio glitch loss of a control surface due to flutter while aimed at the back of a guys head and at the very least you spend the rest of the afternoon sitting in hard plastic chairs of the ER trying to figure out what to tell your wives so they will let you play together again someday.
Drones have destroyed the r/c model aircraft hobby in so many ways. I can't imagine a worse modelling nightmare than trying to fly a proper model aircraft with those toy drones zipping around everywhere. Sorry for your loss.
in 1987 while training in 29 palms my squadron had the rather dubious honor of being the first Marine Corps squadron to successfully deploy the ejection seat... My XO was piloting his Hornet with full ordinance onboard... loaded with 500 plb bombs he lit the afterburners to get off the ground.. The center-line fuel tank did not have the fuel cap properly secured and a Lucky grunt at the end of the runway got a picture as a giant fireball exploded beneath the plane... sure wish I still had a copy of that picture it was a rare one... Our XO got a fire warning indicator.. He could not punch out because he was still over the runway, full fuel bladders to his left, live bombs on the tarmack to his right, with a cool had on the stick he road the plan down until he was at about 100 feet and past the end of the runway. Once in the clear.. in his own words.. " I got clear so I jettisoned the fuel tank, it was still going down so I jettisoned the ordinance, it was still going down so I jettisoned the airplane... Your escapades brought this memory back... thank you its a good memory.. You might be gratified to know there was alot more of your aircraft left then our XO's
Sorry to see the crash landing, such a nice jet. Not "destroyed" by a long shot. Some glue and paint and she'll fly like new. Next time I suggest finding a more open landing site, so it's not the end of the world if you go off runway.
Haha yep ! The front landing gear was damaged Christian the owner was pretty upset but debating on what plane to get next so I think he'll be alright lol ! We have permission to fly in this section of fields but we completely agree , next time we won't land the jet between two rows of corn LoL !
Came in a bit hot my friend. Everything was lining up perfect should have cut power flared a bit more. Hey it's happen to the best of us including myself. You were dealing with a bit of wind and the corn stalks on each side as well. I try to stay in big fields if possible to allow for adjustments. It's an expensive hobby but we'll worth it. I will be glad when they start making some nice vtol style aircraft or some equipped with GPS and automatic landing. We definitely have the technology to do it just nothing like that on the market yet. How cool would that be to push a return to home like on a drone and it lands itself.
I have crashed so many models. Planes (both props & jets), helis, & even some drones, quite often too. The models usually scattered in many pieces, all over the ground!😱😑😟 Good thing it was on a simulator then!🤣
I love once ive crashed a styro-jet. I get it glued back together and i fly much more fearlessly and relaxed. I usually never crash that same plane again....
So, one thing that you NEVER DO.... fly a damn rc plane or helicopter DIRECTLY OVER SPECTATORS, INDIVIDUALS, OR TRAFFIC. I can't believe how dangerous this fool is flying that f-18.
Was a stupid flight. He was flying to fast all the flight. Put in risk the people there. Why is coming so fast to the landing??!!! Maybe have some problem with the left stick of the radio.
That walk of shame such a downer to such a nice flight im new to fpv just got nazgul5 4s and also got a couple glider planes the sky king from xk I got it new for 50 bucks and now I'm hooked i love ground rc now i think i love flying
That happend to everyone of us at the beginning. Title change: "When you are lazy to find secure runway for EDF jet... " 😀 That 10-30 minutes of more drive can cost you half a day of repairing or also the whole model... 🙂 Everyone learns... 🙂
When you see the title and then check length of the video because you’ve been clickbaited before and know your getting clickbaited right now but you you watch the whole damn thing anyway, yep it’s your fault.
Couldn't have happened to a more deserving guy. Broke about every safety rule in the book for flying RC. No wonder the FAA is coming down on the rest of us because of asses like this.
That entire ordeal is about as unsafe as it can possibly get. This is what happens when idiots buy things and have absolutely no give a damn to learn proper ways of doing things
Good think nobody cares what you guys think lol. We can't all drive 2-3hrs just to fly for 25min. You fly where you can and accept the risks, the FAA is trying to ban aircraft because of drone spying not rc jets.
@@homersipes I flew a brand new plane, with a brand new receiver a few weeks ago. Got to far ahead of myself in my excitement and forgot to do a range test before the first flight. Found out about 5 seconds into the flight the receiver was bad and was getting a ton of signal holds. I was fortunate to get it down safely with out damage. All I can think about is what would happen if there was a failure like that was to happen when you are flying over the flight line like that. Seeing this after what happened to me, was horrifying, very very dangerous.
@@andrewvosecky9413 when i was a kid i remember seeing a 45% extra 300 fly straight through an rv at a fly in due to a battery failure. Luckily nobody was in the rv at the time but it was like a missile. I have been fortunate as to never have that kind of issue. I did get "shot down" years ago, i had frequency pin and was flying a 1/4 scale j3 cub and a guest was flying on channel 55 same as me and he flipped his transmitter on while tuning his engine and down my plane went. Its the shit in this video that is destroying the hobby for everyone else that does it responsibly.
Crashing is a part of flying, no worries, didn't look that bad, I've seen far worse that was fixed with some glue and touch up paint. I own a couple of jets but only fly them on areas with a large landing zone, they need a lot of room because they need to come in hot. Even with full flaps, that was going to be a 50/50 proposition landing there. But it's still cheaper than bashing cars!
Yeah I'm thinking the Bonneville salt flats but I've never flown anything so I'm ignorant when it comes to this. Kinda fun to watch didn't enjoy the crash also couldn't see it I'm thinking the camera person was drinking heavily and was jumping up and down on a trampoline.
@@larrynitso3597 Absolutely, but not the end of the World. Usually easy & cheap to fix unless you wreck the whole plane. I do cars, boats and planes, and foamy planes are vastly cheaper to own and maintain, even with the a mistake here or there.
Me: "Look how fast and graceful this jet is! It looks too fast to fly!" Bird: "I think I will fly up and swoop it and do circles around it!" Me: "Damn you mother nature, you showoff!"
That landing approach looked dicey so I can't understand why the pilot didn't do a go-around and shoot the approach again. I only fly fixed-wing models in the virtual world using Real Flight 7 and Phoenix RC before it folded, but I learned to land with precision which qualifies me as an armchair critic here.
It would have required perfect calm conditions, flaps and maybe a little rudder mix (doubtful it has rudders) and lots of luck to land that big edf on that little road but hats off to you for getting out there and having fun flying with your buddies. Best part about foam is boil it, glue it, fly it. Good video👍
@@Spinnaker617 those jets typically do have rudders which will help. I fly these jets and it definitely isn’t luck. It’s pretty much mostly skill, I know many people who would have been able to land on that runway and I also know many more who would have crashed
Who was thinking a drone was going to clip the jet and take it out!?
Yep for a while 7 minutes lol

Let your friend know that he doesn't have to wear a florescent green shirt. We can see him just fine.

Karma. Dangerous flying with complete disregard for the safety of the other pilots in the pitts.
Well it's not an actual flying field so if they don't like having someone buzz over their head at 70mph they can just leave.
😉
Yeah clearly the 3 fixed wing pilots we had out have been flying together for a long time. We know each others flying capabilities and pay attention accordingly
@@matthewbalkema792 how does that help if theres an unforeseen problem? High speed low passes are EXACTLY when a problem is most likely to occur.
A catastrophic failure at low level pointed in a safe direction never hurt anyone.
Lose a servo horn or radio glitch loss of a control surface due to flutter while aimed at the back of a guys head and at the very least you spend the rest of the afternoon sitting in hard plastic chairs of the ER trying to figure out what to tell your wives so they will let you play together again someday.
“Pilots”
The guys AMA dislike.
Idiot gonna hurt someone. He’d be kicked out immediately where I fly.
Got the weird feeling I was watching independents Day during the video.
Someone needs to practice landing, he was coming in way too fast.
Are we not going to talk about how bonkers fast those drones are!
Haja
@4:17 that was so cool, idk if it was just because it flew through a cloud but being so far away made it look like it broke the speed sound barrier
This is like building a $2500 PC and then frying all the parts with static shock on final assembly 😂
Drones have destroyed the r/c model aircraft hobby in so many ways. I can't imagine a worse modelling nightmare than trying to fly a proper model aircraft with those toy drones zipping around everywhere. Sorry for your loss.
Great looking plane and great flying... sorry for the ending, but I’m sure this isn’t the first plane you have had to repair.
Nice jet! That thing reminds me of the real one in a lot of ways, I spent years around them.
Unlucky guys we all been their unfortunately haha. Looks a good flying crew 🙌🏼🙌🏼👊🏼
Later when the farmer sees miniature plane parts in his combine:
“What in tiny aviation?”
I got that! pretty good
I couldn't believe how fast those drones are!
in 1987 while training in 29 palms my squadron had the rather dubious honor of being the first Marine Corps squadron to successfully deploy the ejection seat... My XO was piloting his Hornet with full ordinance onboard... loaded with 500 plb bombs he lit the afterburners to get off the ground.. The center-line fuel tank did not have the fuel cap properly secured and a Lucky grunt at the end of the runway got a picture as a giant fireball exploded beneath the plane... sure wish I still had a copy of that picture it was a rare one... Our XO got a fire warning indicator.. He could not punch out because he was still over the runway, full fuel bladders to his left, live bombs on the tarmack to his right, with a cool had on the stick he road the plan down until he was at about 100 feet and past the end of the runway. Once in the clear.. in his own words.. " I got clear so I jettisoned the fuel tank, it was still going down so I jettisoned the ordinance, it was still going down so I jettisoned the airplane... Your escapades brought this memory back... thank you its a good memory.. You might be gratified to know there was alot more of your aircraft left then our XO's
Star 🌟 comment
Those foam flyers glue back together very good. Make sure to balance again after your repairs and your good to go
When the guy has learnt how to fly that damm thing but skipped the landing class
coming down is the hardest part haha !
@@kristopherketchum1902 coming down is easy, coming down gently not so much.
This plane has flaps and will come in at a manageable speed with high alpha attitude, what a waste of a beautiful jet!!
@@chernandez109ch this plane has flaps and CAN come down manage ably......just not this time....
@@kristopherketchum1902 Takes guts to try to land an EDF on that narrow road near all that corn and trees! Oh well at least looked repairable!
The way he's on his knees almost in tears is absolutely tradgic
You're a good sport. Great flying, tough landing.
Thank you !!
Sounds just like a big jet, but it’s only 2 feet long! So cool!
Flying over any pit area with any flying machine is just dangerous and stupid!
Thank you for your concern , I will let the pilots know !
Sorry to see the crash landing, such a nice jet. Not "destroyed" by a long shot. Some glue and paint and she'll fly like new. Next time I suggest finding a more open landing site, so it's not the end of the world if you go off runway.
Haha yep ! The front landing gear was damaged Christian the owner was pretty upset but debating on what plane to get next so I think he'll be alright lol ! We have permission to fly in this section of fields but we completely agree , next time we won't land the jet between two rows of corn LoL !
Way to hot for landing,lesson learned hopefully. Good luck and happy flying
Something lost, something learned, that's life. Nice video.
Looks like a hawk with a couple of mockingbirds harassing him with those drones chasing it,lol
Mans greatest achievement was flight but you have to learn to land first
If you are able to land your thing, only THEN you can fly.
@@ab3rsur314 But don't you have to fly before you can land?
@@Thunderbyrd. technically the truth. Good one.😅 yeeees you are right, but you know what I mean.
The walk of shame begins around the 5:30 mark. We have all been there.
I haven’t ,but I’m not a total moron like this bunch of pricks.
Came in a bit hot my friend. Everything was lining up perfect should have cut power flared a bit more. Hey it's happen to the best of us including myself. You were dealing with a bit of wind and the corn stalks on each side as well. I try to stay in big fields if possible to allow for adjustments. It's an expensive hobby but we'll worth it. I will be glad when they start making some nice vtol style aircraft or some equipped with GPS and automatic landing. We definitely have the technology to do it just nothing like that on the market yet. How cool would that be to push a return to home like on a drone and it lands itself.
Flew way too long, even with the bigger pack and it didn't seem like the pilot was using flaps on approach! Way too fast on approach!
Thats what I thought, way to hot.
Even flaps the jet would stall
Wow time flies lol. Did you see cleetus McFarland flying the b2motion rc bomber lol
Hot landing. Need to slow down with flaps on approach?
I have crashed so many models.
Planes (both props & jets), helis, & even some drones, quite often too. The models usually scattered in many pieces, all over the ground!😱😑😟
Good thing it was on a simulator then!🤣
I dub your call sign..”corn stalk”… lmao
Awesome vid my RC friends SUBBED bummer ending
Dam i bet that yellow dude could destroy a toilet in seconds...
It won't look "NEW" but you can repair that and it will be strong and look really good.
ive wasted so much money in this stuff but i always loved the absolute destruction of it
Question. Btw great flying. We’re you flying line of sight or fpv. B/c it looked like a spec.
When you finally kill that annoying mosquito
Damn that sounds like a legit model jet motor it's insane that you can get those for 500 bucks now that used to be a rich man's toy
It’s a simple ducted fan motor
I love once ive crashed a styro-jet. I get it glued back together and i fly much more fearlessly and relaxed. I usually never crash that same plane again....
That's a really nice saturn ion redline there at the end haha. Honestly for all the flybys and the area he was flying in, did pretty decent...
Thanks man ! SC all zzP stage 3 goodieS !! One of my fastest cars 🚗 vroom vroom !
So, one thing that you NEVER DO.... fly a damn rc plane or helicopter DIRECTLY OVER SPECTATORS, INDIVIDUALS, OR TRAFFIC.
I can't believe how dangerous this fool is flying that f-18.
That's what makes this video entertaining.
Was a stupid flight. He was flying to fast all the flight. Put in risk the people there. Why is coming so fast to the landing??!!! Maybe have some problem with the left stick of the radio.
Glad to see the guy in yellow finally beat Anorexia!
That walk of shame such a downer to such a nice flight im new to fpv just got nazgul5 4s and also got a couple glider planes the sky king from xk I got it new for 50 bucks and now I'm hooked i love ground rc now i think i love flying
That happend to everyone of us at the beginning. Title change: "When you are lazy to find secure runway for EDF jet... " 😀 That 10-30 minutes of more drive can cost you half a day of repairing or also the whole model... 🙂 Everyone learns... 🙂
When you see the title and then check length of the video because you’ve been clickbaited before and know your getting clickbaited right now but you you watch the whole damn thing anyway, yep it’s your fault.
Slider: “Hey Maverick… crash and burn.”
Maverick: “Slider…” sniff sniff “You stink.”
Great skills with the drones
Couldn't have happened to a more deserving guy. Broke about every safety rule in the book for flying RC. No wonder the FAA is coming down on the rest of us because of asses like this.
Exactly . Wait what haha
That entire ordeal is about as unsafe as it can possibly get. This is what happens when idiots buy things and have absolutely no give a damn to learn proper ways of doing things
Good think nobody cares what you guys think lol. We can't all drive 2-3hrs just to fly for 25min. You fly where you can and accept the risks, the FAA is trying to ban aircraft because of drone spying not rc jets.
@@homersipes I flew a brand new plane, with a brand new receiver a few weeks ago. Got to far ahead of myself in my excitement and forgot to do a range test before the first flight. Found out about 5 seconds into the flight the receiver was bad and was getting a ton of signal holds. I was fortunate to get it down safely with out damage. All I can think about is what would happen if there was a failure like that was to happen when you are flying over the flight line like that. Seeing this after what happened to me, was horrifying, very very dangerous.
@@andrewvosecky9413 when i was a kid i remember seeing a 45% extra 300 fly straight through an rv at a fly in due to a battery failure. Luckily nobody was in the rv at the time but it was like a missile. I have been fortunate as to never have that kind of issue. I did get "shot down" years ago, i had frequency pin and was flying a 1/4 scale j3 cub and a guest was flying on channel 55 same as me and he flipped his transmitter on while tuning his engine and down my plane went. Its the shit in this video that is destroying the hobby for everyone else that does it responsibly.
Crashing is a part of flying, no worries, didn't look that bad, I've seen far worse that was fixed with some glue and touch up paint. I own a couple of jets but only fly them on areas with a large landing zone, they need a lot of room because they need to come in hot. Even with full flaps, that was going to be a 50/50 proposition landing there. But it's still cheaper than bashing cars!
Yeah I'm thinking the Bonneville salt flats but I've never flown anything so I'm ignorant when it comes to this. Kinda fun to watch didn't enjoy the crash also couldn't see it I'm thinking the camera person was drinking heavily and was jumping up and down on a trampoline.
I don't like crashing or see anyone crashing if you have one plane usually you pack it up and go home
@@larrynitso3597 Absolutely, but not the end of the World. Usually easy & cheap to fix unless you wreck the whole plane. I do cars, boats and planes, and foamy planes are vastly cheaper to own and maintain, even with the a mistake here or there.
Nice flight though and crashing is what makes non crashing so great. Keep going fast!!! 😝🤘
Me: "Look how fast and graceful this jet is! It looks too fast to fly!"
Bird: "I think I will fly up and swoop it and do circles around it!"
Me: "Damn you mother nature, you showoff!"
You know how to fly? Yeah....it's the landing part I can't do 😂
How about toning down on the drone noise..how can you even concentrate with all that buzzing around🤔
Ouch!! Nice flying!
Glue...the most useful and important tool in rc model world.
Thts wrong place to be flying a jet not smart at all🤔
Thanks man ! Love to hear your opinion .
I’d be comfortable flying a jet like that from that location
That landing approach looked dicey so I can't understand why the pilot didn't do a go-around and shoot the approach again. I only fly fixed-wing models in the virtual world using Real Flight 7 and Phoenix RC before it folded, but I learned to land with precision which qualifies me as an armchair critic here.
The real damage is all that farm land not being used! Holy moly! Ground effect from dehydrated corn stalks is the least of anyone's concern!
Tough break...did you get it repaired?
Totally unsafe to not only fly over people, but taking off and landing in such close proximity to others and on a public road...SMH
It would have required perfect calm conditions, flaps and maybe a little rudder mix (doubtful it has rudders) and lots of luck to land that big edf on that little road but hats off to you for getting out there and having fun flying with your buddies.
Best part about foam is boil it, glue it, fly it.
Good video👍
@@Spinnaker617 those jets typically do have rudders which will help. I fly these jets and it definitely isn’t luck. It’s pretty much mostly skill, I know many people who would have been able to land on that runway and I also know many more who would have crashed
Not only does the dude not know what “seconds” means... he also has no clue of the price of these aircraft.
In the extended version, overly excited Flex Seal pitchman Phil Swift jumps out from the cornfield and saves the day with his latest product...
Ah hell, 5 minute epoxy will have him back in the air before lunch! Happy Trails....
