Rings out his big P51 mustang with a great flight.
Turn up the volume and listen to that Kolm 310cc inline 4 cylinder 4 stroke.
All I can say is wow.

The real Mustang this is modeled after was based near me in Valparaiso, IN. It was owned and flown by a retired USMC fighter pilot named Jim Read. He operated a small warbird museum at the Porter County Airport. All of his airplanes were maintained in pristine condition, and he flew them all. I did a little volunteer work for him...polishing that Mustang on Sundays...was a lot of fun to actually get my hands on one! Jim was always ready to talk airplanes...He sadly passed away a few months ago.
What a privilege sir, I love the p 51 !
Hot damn that's a gorgeous sight !
Put a go pro in the pilots seat
This is one fantastically beautiful and impressive radio controlled model aircraft. P-51 D's have always been one of my favorite aircraft. I can not imagine as to how many hours actually went into the building of this airplane. The details are awesomely amazing, but however, in my lowly opinion, I believe that a pilot figure added to the plane would be the crowning touch. Again, this is a fantastic model!!!!!
Who could ever fly 2-stroke again after listening to this beautiful music. I remember seeing that Kolm in a Galloping Ghost several years ago at Joe Nall. It's absolutely incredible. I hope to get to see yours one day. Great accomplishment, Steve! That's a lot of love that went into that Mustang...
People who can't afford these high-end planes, electronics, and engines, THAT's who (which is most of us in RC, btw).
Superrrrrr!
The P51 Mustang is one of the most beautiful aircraft ever, even in model form!
The sound of this plane is out of this world! Awsome!
The livery on this airplane is of 8th AF, 352nd Fighter Group. The same unit my father served in WWII. My dads plane was 414-3849 PE-V "Little Buster." Nice vid!!
Hi Duane. Thanks for sharing that memory. We should never forget the men who flew the full scale warbirds, their skill and bravery. It's a privilege to recreate a small piece of that history.
Man, the stories you're father must have had.
"Blue Nosed Bastards of Bodney", George E. Preddy,Jr.'s unit.
Wow! Nice job on the build and the flight!! Amazing! Worth every penny I’m sure!
Beautiful model and well flown. Congratulations.
Aerobatics is in my blood, not so much a warplane guy. I will admit I absolutely loved every minute of this video. The sound and finish on that plane is amazing and you have great friends and supporters to back it up. Put a big smile on my face. Keep flying boys
Beautiful. Miss flying with you guys!
Beautiful P 51, a lot of work on it nice finishing , congratulations.
Beautiful and amazing. Sounds great!
Very NICE....love to see a pilot in it!
So happy your enjoying the mustang! Looks and sounds awesome. Fly it like you stole it!
Glad to see you out and around. Thanks for allowing a comment section. See you in Haverstraw one day? I hope.
Astonishing, well done!
wow indeed! I have not been flying for the past few years and watching the video made my thumbs itching for my Futaba and my Hurricane that is accumulating dust.....
Lovely airplane! Engine is a beast!
Dam that so cool I love it nice flying to.🤠
What an amazing sounding airplane
Excellent flight
Wow! Nice bird! Tuning those four carbs has got to be a pain though. I'm jealous as my P-51s are by far my favorite warbirds to fly but nothing approaching this size.
Beautiful plane, gorgeously raucous engine.
For those complaining about the number of blades on the prop, it must be understood that the full-size aircraft has the benefit of employing systems that would be difficult and/or ruinously expensive to miniaturize. For example, an actual P-51 employs a prop on which the pitch of the blades is variable to optimize performance at different rpms. Even on a model as big and sophisticated as this one, one is unlikely to find such a system. I can't imagine what a "constant speed" prop would cost to design and install on this scale. RC airplane props must be something of a compromise to work at all speeds, so we should cut them a bit of slack.
Wish I had thought to say that, but much appreciated. 2 blade is purely for max performance, but there is a 4 blade for static display amd I'll try it next season to see how it compares.
Thanks for the explanation; I'd been wondering why so many RC planes run a 2 blade prop instead of the prototypical 3 blade - makes sense.
Awesome!!!!!!! Best engine sound ever
Beautiful machine !
Amazing motor sounds
Love the Kolm
work of art
Beautiful plane
Very awesome Sir!
Absolutely gorgeous P51! Though the engine sounds rich, or off. I'd hate to try to tune that thing.
My money's on too rich
These engines need to be rich down low..
Helps cool the engine
Also being new.. the tune gets richer as it beds in.
It took 12 flights if my kolm to bed in
Seems like gas takes forever to break in, methanol engines are quicker.
Super cool Airplane.
What a beast!
Hermoso sonido de motor! Hermoso avión gran vuelo! Gracias
Thats too Awesome..
Beautiful
F A N T A S T I C!!! After watching this video, everyone in our house is awake 😂👍
Very cool 😎 🤙🏼
Steve is ace pilot!
Looks alot like a CARF. I have the DA 100i in mine.... but the Kolm rules!
Awsome plane! It really brings modelers together😅
Bueatiful aircraft! Right main gear door might need some attention but otherwise awesome!! Love me a Kolm
Pretty damm impressive 👏 👌 👍🏻
Oh yeah!!
@hamiltonshangar kinda makes you want a giant scale don't it. 😊
Congrats guys! Great Job!! If you need any help or advises with the Kolm, just let me know :-) keep going !!
Great flight, beautiful detailing. I build gasser war bird r/c models also, but none as big as this. Just one comment - no pilot?
Otherwise great job. Agree with other commenters Kolm sounds rich - has this improved with break in? Tuning 4 carburetors to match must be a pain.
Awesome........
Amazing
WOW! awesome flight... how long can you fly before running out of fuel? What is the range when in the air before loosing control of plane? Hoping someday I can get into flying a model plane. And I see you have a Cobra, just built a Factory 5 Mk4 finished in April of 2021.
Great model and flight! Need to put an elf in the cockpit though!
Or a G.I Joe or Barbie Doll. 😉
The motor sounded rich, but amazing none the less...
Nice Plane! Perfect Engine!
Awesome
Sexier than a playboy centerfold.
It just needs a four blade propellor and left landing gear doors adjusted.
And the landing gear retracts in the original P51 after eachother, not synchronical due the hydraulic rams being used parallel.
But well, maybe I am just anoying, it is a beautiful P51! 👌
Fantastic. Although it sound's. Very real on the ground.
What size prop are running
I've seen a P38...an a 10...this thing kills..
Man that thing sounds so mean! Looks like he needs to extend the tail gear mount a bit though, tails bouncing off the grass lol
Hell ya
engine still breaking in?
Mega geil
wing loading?
Richtig geil klasse Maschine Grüße aus Germany
Потрясающая копия- модель, такая огромная , смотрится совсем по другому, чем маленькие.
Superbe. L’avion est fantastique le pilote aussi. (Luxembourg)
Je viens de voir votre poste. Merci beaucoup. Bonne annee.
sounds like mini merlin :)) i could say it sounds almost better like full scale
Why not a 4 blade prop?
Was it just the audio on the video or was the motor cutting out on occasion?
Nice!!! ;-)
Wow
wonder how long a tank of gas lasts
Hey guys is the two blade prop really the way to go with something you spent so much time making look authentic ??????????????
Performance wise. Yeah.
Hi is this model for sale
Der Sound klingt schön kernig.
What scale is this plane or at least the wingspan.
Scale is 1/3.7 and wingspan is 114"
@@stephenperlbinder1671 Thank You Steve. I'm trying to build an all aluminum p-51d and am using the Ziroli prints plus other sources . I have never built an RC airplane before but I am disabled and my old hobby was reloading but components dried up and I needed something else so after thinking about it I thought I would try it. I don't know how it will turn out or even fly but I am enjoying myself. You did a beautiful job on yours, I really love the paint choice. Take care and GOD Bless.
@@chrismaurer2075 Hi Chris. Thank you and please let me know how your project works out.
@@stephenperlbinder1671 I will keep you posted for sure.
Great plane! What scale is it?
Could be wrong, but I think 1/3 scale.
The Mustang nothing like it, nothing flys like it.
It's NO LITE WEIGHT, Bro. Looks Great Sounds Greater.
That is awesome! What's the cost of a hobby like that?
At that size, the cost is prohibitive for the average RC'er. The engine alone lists for around 8,400 US dollars.
@@johngunther6333 right, thought so, tnx!
Bonjour,
ou avez vous acheté votre train d'atterrissage , SVP, Merci
Down and Locked, but don't know if they are still in business
overheat? why random engine cuts?
These are first flights on this Mustang and hole on bottom added temporarily to improve airflow over cylinders until inflight telemetry temps can be taken. Will be removed.
@@stephenperlbinder1671 I think he meant why did the engine seem to cut out quite a bit - seemed a few times after takeoff you had engine sputters OR cut the throttle to idle for a couple of secs over and over.
@@stephenperlbinder1671 beautiful model btw, conrats
@@TheRealPDaveTH Yes, missed that. The engine still low time and running at factory carb settings which are on the rich side. In the case of this video, the model had not been flown in a few years, and throttle settings were initially changed more often than usual to get a better sense of how well the engine was responding to throttle commands. Once comfortable that the engine was not going to pack it in, the rest of the flight was flown at more normal and constant throttle setting. After another hour, leaning process will begin but on the cautious side. Thanks for your comments on the original question.
would be better with a whistle sound when it dives, but very nice
Wonder why not a 4 blade prop.
The 2 blade is much more efficient. He might be able to run a 4 blade once it’s broken in. You can’t see it in the air anyway.
Another airplane with blower surge!!!
le falta mas hélice a ese motor.
Why not a more realistic 4-blade prop?
This engine sounds sick and flying is very nervous ....
素晴らしい機体です😀次回この機体にカメラを搭載して撮影して飛行できませんか?
( It is a wonderful aircraft. Next time, can we mount a camera on this aircraft and fly it while taking video? )
Hello. I've been wanting to mount a camera in the cockpit but am trying out different tracking systems so that the onboard camera feeds a video signal back to an FPV headset that can "look" out of the cockpit as a pilot would and not have a fixed viewing position. Will be working on that next season.
@@stephenperlbinder1671 Hello😃I am looking forward to it. Good luck👍I subscribed to your channel.
（楽しみです。がんばってください。チャンネル登録しました。)
@@stephenperlbinder1671 very cool. I look very forward to seeing this. This would be awesome to see from the pilot seat. 👍👍
Very tail-heavy, I'm surprised no one notices.
Hi Peter. I would agree with you that the Mustang seems to fly tail heavy, mostly in slower flight I think, but CG was set using Xicoy scale system and is slightly forward of recommended position. Very few flights on this plane, but I have flown many giant scale warbirds and this one doesn't fly or feel tail heavy, especially in landing, full flap configuration where elevator feel is most important to me. Thanks for the comment. I hope to get a chance to look at CG more critically when I get more flights on the Mustang next season.
@@stephenperlbinder1671 Ok, thanks for your comment. But if the CG is correct: Have you checked the angle of incidence of the elevator? The Mustang needs not more than 1.5°, if profile of wing is a 2415 or similar. The plane sometimes seems like to drop an anchor in the air.
@@peterbremberg3900 Hi Peter. Thanks for getting back. This Mustang was built by a gent in Germany, I think, about 10-12 years ago. I acquired it from a friend getting out of the hobby. Not sure what his source material was for incidence data, etc, but that's how I got it and it was successfully test flown back when it was built. This was only my second flight on the Mustang and I was very nervous about engine reliability even with factory rich needle settings. You are right, when power is reduced on this one is does seem as though an anchor was thrown out. Good pick up and I appreciate your obvious knowledge of what goes into this size project. I think for now I'll just fly as is and maybe take a critical look at incidence next season. Thanks again for commenting.
Spunds like its misfiring
Sort of sounds like 5 o’clock Charlie from mash
Sounds like 5 o'clock charlie
🖤🤍❤👍👍👍👏👏👏🙏🙏🙏👀👀👀😎😎😎🖤🤍❤
Not fair...
Tony
Engine needs a tune up , dose not run very smooth ! But it looks good .
sep 34X18 2 blade, 4 blade 30X18 to try next season.
Prop should be 4 blade
I use a 4 blade but only for display. Max performance, unfortunately, is with the 2 blade you see in this video. I can use the 4 blade for flying, but the model takes a serious performance hit.
@@stephenperlbinder1671 yes you are right, more mass to spin..
More resistance
Pretty nice flying even though it has NO pilot in the plane. Engine sounds a little too rich.
Beautiful model , but they need to get those gear doors fitting better there’s a lot of drag there with them not closing up good & tight. Don’t sound like the motor is tuned quite right, and lot of fussing & farting going on , never really cleared up ?
The Mustang was test flown with all gear doors off and no GPS measured change in top speed. One main gear door could be better fit at least for cosmetics, but still putting time on the engine before first carb retune from factory settings which are on rich side.
Not a perfectionist - it's got the Packard idle sound down pat- but it needs four blades !!
