  • The world's largest jet-powered RC model of the MIG 25 suffers an engine failure on takeoff, sending it plunging into a nearby field.
    Only expert flying by 18-year-old Clinton Kraidy (and a fist-full of luck) prevented major damage to the model. In fact, after a few hours of gluing -- the model was once again in the air and wowing the crowds.
    This is just some of the incredible RC model flying that took place at the 2011 ANZAC international RC jet meeting in Tokoroa New Zealand in February 2011.

    The models I used to "try" to fly were line controlled in circles with .049 engines and the like. A Ram jet on line control in 1960 was the a crowd magnet. Can you guess how long ago that has been? Boy, am I impressed with Clinton's plane and expertise in flying it! Great Job!! Thorhild, Alberta, Canada.

    Wow. Not only did Clinton do an amazing job bringing that plane down with VERY little damage, but it's a real testament to he and his father's design and building skills that the plane was that rugged and yet light-weight. And then they get it flying again that afternoon?? Simply fantastic. Great job all around.

But if you did know a little something about aviation, you'd realize the fantastic skill of the pilot to land this aircraft in a controlled crash that did little to no damage to the aircraft itself. GREAT JOB PILOT! Amazing!

    Great kid, even greater model - I see complicated bulkheads on some RC's and a crash in them can make for expensive and time consuming repair jobs, but that simple design was effective and easy to repair - what you need on the flying field. Thankfully your mig25 stalled flat, a godsend in this situation, fistful of luck was an understatement - best of luck and congrats to Clinton!

  • @Tuffenough4u

    I am impressed at how well that model just hung nose high in the air at stall speeds.
    Those older Russian jets have very primitive lines about them being boxy and to the point in design features, and past decent piloting I suspect that was a factor that helped stabilize things making it salvageable. Cool deal

      To the OP who may or may not be with us any longer, after nearly a decade awaiting your carefully constructed reply: The model aircraft was clearly placed in a deep-stall by the pilot, who pulled nearly full up elevator upon losing thrust, a poor pilot indeed. The model transitioned through the post-stall instability region where he had to correct the wing rocking, and ended up in a stable deep stall that was probably unrecoverable.

    Very nice flying with the engine out! And that was quite an understatement about it being a durable design.
    I'm curious - was the left engine kept at full thrust? In most (all?) real planes the added power & speed can give enough rudder authority to overcome the yaw induced by the engine-out, but in this case it looked like the yaw from the remaining engine was overpowering the rudders. Maybe this model needs more rudder area or deflection so it can remain under control during engine-out?

    • @dodgyaz
      @dodgyaz 10 лет назад +8

      Jets don't glide like a conventional plane. Dropping the nose at that height would have just meant hitting the ground faster.

    • @BritishBeeMan
      @BritishBeeMan 10 лет назад +6

      Never flown an rc jet, and physics doesn't scale well. But.... had a compressor stall on the real thing and procedure is always the same. Gotta be moving forward to generate lift, every airplane has a glide slope. Which is always slower to the ground than dropping like a stone due to a stall.

    • @kurt57b
      @kurt57b 10 лет назад +6

      James Evans
      RC Planes are very lightly built, so they don't drop that fast. If you keep them level, at the end of the drop there will actually build up a cushion of air that may be sufficient to keep the drop from being catastrophic.
      Having too much horizontal speed may make you hit something (tree, bush) with much more momentum and do much more damage.

    • @kurt57b
      @kurt57b 9 лет назад +2

      ***** The problem is, the pilot couldn't see where the plane would come down to "flare altitude" (obscured by the ridge). It's safer to come down vertically on the cushion below the large wing than still be moving forward and then hit an unseen obstacle at a much higher speed than the vertical drop generates.

    What's great about this model is that unlike many other RC jets this has some weight to support. You notice the effect at take off and landing as there isn't any blowing around going on. I don't know what you would call this effect but it has always annoyed me with scaled flight but this model seems to have avoided that issue and I can only assume it is to do with the size and weight.

    @FourDollaRacing 13 лет назад

    @TheChad40 That depends. Many delta-type aircraft are specifically designed to land in a "high alpha" attitude. Besides, the retracts on this model are scale-like and quite slow. Had he turned back, the pilot risked landing on a hard surface with no gear. Instead he chose to belly land in a grassy area, without having to wait for the retracts.
