The Control Line flying with Pilot Gary Lutz

This control line flying was the rc start back in the 1950's and 60's. This is a unique way of flying rc, very competitive. The plane is called STUNTRESS DREAM GIRL designed by Joe Adamusko. please check our merch store teespring.com/stores/jrca2102...

I flew planes a little as a kid over 60 years ago. Had a friend 30 years ago that also had planes so we went flying a few times. I had a full size Nobler and we flew that with a K&B .45 We crashed the Nobler and then fixed it but it hung in my basement for years. I tossed it out after it fell and broke. I still have my homemade field box and 3 engines and other stuff. Seems like you can hardly find any line models or hardware online. It’s all RC stuff. I always had fun flying except for the crashing part !

Super cool 😎

[@aviatoralex9861]

WOW! That takes some real skills to fly a control line plane like that! OUTSTANDING!

[@jacksonrcaviation]

Thanks my friend, yes indeed 😎

[@jcb6713]

Brought back a lot of early/mid 60's fun and memories...thanks...

[@jacksonrcaviation]

Thanks my friend, history is how we got here for sure, enjoy your day 😎

I remember control line flying but not as good as he is, 100% like. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@jacksonrcaviation]

Thanks my friend 😎

[@FlankerTanker]

that control line take me back to my school days - loved flying control line back then... nice video - thanks for sharing.

[@DesmondsDonders]

I used to fly control line years ago. Love it.

[@jacksonrcaviation]

It's an art and style for sure😎

[@johncamesano5844]

What a beautiful performance! Surely Gary has been to the Nats with skills like this. And the engine. Don't hear many tuned to cycle like that. Congratulations on your success!

[@jacksonrcaviation]

Thanks my friend

[@WildBillFlysRC]

looks to be 60 foot lines... cool stuff Jackson! thanks!

[@jacksonrcaviation]

Thanks my friend, this is different for sure 😎

Very nice flight. Takes me back for sure. I am 73 now. My dad taught me to fly control line at age 4 with 1/2 A class planes. As I grew I advanced into Ringmasters, Noblers and my favorite stunter, the Veco Thunderbird. I also loved flying combat planes with speeds in the neighborhood of 120mph, though I prefered freestyle stunting with them rather than combat as people I would combat with were usually at least twice my age, and size. Been hoping for years to run across anyone who flew at Robert's Field near Birmingham, Alabama in the 50s and 60s. I'm sure many are gone now since most were adults or young adults and only a couple or so were my age. Loved the great flight and especially the overhead eights. Smooth!

Super cool indeed 😎

fun as can be you never miss a sunday

[@briancourtice2858]

That model is every bit as beautiful and impressive today as it was during its heyday seventy years ago.

[@jacksonrcaviation]

Thanks my friend, I agree 100 percent 😎

Even more so!

Reminds me of being a kid! Something I haven't seen in a long time! 👍

Chris, This Is Exactly Your Sweet Spot Video Of How Many Different Types Of Controlled Aircraft There Really Are Being Flown Today And In The Future.... Thanks And Keep Them Coming My Friend....

[@jacksonrcaviation]

Thanks my friend for the kind words and support 😎

[@RcAircraft]

Nice to see something different. 👍
I used to fly Control Line when i was young.
I would probably get dizzy if I tried it now.

[@jacksonrcaviation]

Thanks my friend, I find it amazing 😎

Le levé ou le couché du soleil. En pleine dans les yeux dans les inverses ....is no good....🤣

Awesome my friend, thumbs up

Actually RC came before control line. The first RC planes at the nationals were in 1937 & control line planes did not appear at the nats until 1942. RC was not widespread until costs came down in the seventies, although plenty were doing it all along. But that's when even if you wanted a home radio, you built it yourself.
Actor Reginald Denny developed the first radio controlled plane in 1936 & started the 'radioplane' company, selling the first 'Drones' to the Army for towing targets for fighter planes.
He also owned a hobby shop in Hollywood.

[@jacksonrcaviation]

Very nice indeed, and thanks for watching it's all about fun here. Have great new year😎

[@bradrock7731]

@@jacksonrcaviation Thank you for a swell video! I can't get enough control line ! I have a pile of RC planes and none of them have the pull on your arm that is so satisfying. Pulling out of a wingover at four feet off the ground is always a thrill.

[@jacksonrcaviation]

Thanks my friend, sorry I didn't see this before. Enjoy your day 😎

[@bradrock7731]

@@jacksonrcaviation Thank you for the great video! That's a HOT looking airplane right there. Looks like my back yard in Missouri, except my hayfield is only 10 acres! Heh..Heh

Nicely flown AMA stunt pattern !

Thanks

[@Togidubnus]

I tried several times with control line, way back when. I wrote off too many planes. To get these sorts of skills I should imagine there have been several piles of wreckage along the way.

[@jacksonrcaviation]

Thanks 😊

Thanks my friend, I learned a lot about this way of flying for sure😎

[@Toscanto]

Bel appareil vol correct compte tenue du soleil très belle carburztion
Moteur rétro yatsenko ...? Ou stalker.

[@Toscanto]

Ce vol avec ce soleil dans la tronche le pilote devait être très vigilant notamment dans la boucle carré inversée du huit à plat .
Le sol arrive vite quant l le soleil ébloui
Pas d'erreur possible bravo

[@Inferalanding]

Try and get the sun behind you when filming.

not into CL but thats cool

Yes it's the ballad of rc aviation 😎

Is that a Super Tigre 60 ?

[@jacksonrcaviation]

Thanks my friend, I believe so😎

[@locktite401]

Where's the transmitter?

[@jacksonrcaviation]

This is a control line plane, no transmitter, it's 2 lines and the pilot performs movement by moving the strings.
