It was really great to watch a video and hear the engines and all the real sounds instead of noisy ear blasting music. Very well done, gentlemen, I enjoyed it. Thank you for sharing.
How did I miss this for so long?! Great compilation Horst, and I love how you give the cause of an accident - when I saw that La-7 go in I was just about to say what happened - and you answered it! Very sad about that one, but happy to see only 1 mechanical failure and only 1 write off! Amazing saves and some great luck (and some bad luck too!) Thanks for sharing!
Hello my friend. No problem for your delayed comment. I know that it is difficult to watch and comment to all the videos uploaded from my friends. As you can see, I've missed your comment as well :) As a model pilot I hate to see planes crashing. This video shows once more that on tricky wind conditions things becomes even more difficult. _Happy flying to you !!!_
Its amazing. I don’t understand why they are not circling around with full flap, gear down, cut idle, and bring it in nice and slow all the while using throttle to adjust speed and rudder direction. If you are straight there is no need for ailerons or elevator of your level on approach, and if you are not, you should circle around for another attempt.
Yeah for real most of the mistakes were easily avoidable, and I don't mean it in a condescending way. When your plane starts to nosedive then counter it with some input! Then again, those pilots are old so maybe they simply lack the reflexes
RCScaleAirplanes And thank you for the video! Seriously, one of the better RC compilation vids available here on youtube.. Good watchable quality, well filmed, and edited nicely!
I saw a LOT of impressive flying skill. It takes a lot of guts just to fly those things. My jaw dropped at many of those recoveries... they looked impossible to get out of! I hoped everyone watched it to the end. That was funny!
I've been a scratch builder since 1987, I've built from Ziroli plans, and if what I see in this video is a year worth of bad landings? All is good, don't be a critic of something you don't know. Well done. AMA member.
Many thanks for your great comment. Yes, this are the _bad moments of 2013_ and 've seen and filmed more than 500 flights. To be honest, there are missing 3 crashes in this compilation because the pilots asked me to not show them on the internet. _Best regards, RCSA_
Very few things are done perfectly with the first attempt. Seeing other people fail and get better may give other new modelists the courage to try. Thank you for sharing these humble beginnings.
It happens to the best of us , as you say no one is perfect , many thanks for all the awsome videos you guys have done , for our enjoyment , all the best for the coming new year , keep the vids coming
Thank you *John*, for your kind comment. We are glad that we were able to entertain you and we will do our best to show you some great videos also in 2014.
Hello Tim ... Thank you been all this time with us. Glad to have you here. All the best for the new season and always happy flying. *Happy New Year* Best regards, Horst
Truly enjoyed the 2013 moments. It's nice to share the full reality of the RC flying hobby with the good and bad landings. I haven't recovered yet from my first and last disaster crash (20 years ago) ;-)
Eduardo Fritis Thank you for your watching and commenting, Eduardo. The recordings were made in Graz (Austria), Bad Bergzabern, Langenau, Oberhausen, Kirchdorf / Iller, Genderkingen and Bad Wörishofen (all in southern Germany).
Awesome Horst, great camerawork and video of beautiful large scale aircraft! Great planes and the good landings are sweet, the close calls are breathtaking, and the bad ones are heartbreaking, my feelings go out to the pilots/builders! Thanks for bringing " the good, the bad and the ugly" to us in 2013 and look forward to more spectacular, planes, flights and videos in 2014! Happy New Year Horst and all! Two thumbs up and danke schön Horst!
Thank you so much for your kind comment, *Fred*. It's always a pleasure to read them. You're always welcome to watch my videos. *HAPPY NEW YEAR* to you and yours !!!
I used to fly model airplanes when I was in my youth. It was a blast, but it got too expensive, and I had things happen in life that forced me to give it up. Thanks for posting this, it was great to see all those awesome aircraft, especially that ME-262, Salamander, and the BF-110!!
Your camerawork is fantastic,mine is not.You film great models and pilots,i do not. We all have fun though i think.:) Fantastic video Horst,thanks for the videos of 2013 and all the best to you my friend.
Nobody is going to be perfect. Even the best flier in the group is going to have a crash every once in a while. These videos bring back memories when me and my dad use to fly rc airplanes and I gotta say it was worth every penny we spent. Great video keep up the amazing work. The ending was hilarious.
A lot of the pilots are forcing their airplanes in the glide slope, if its not in it its not in it. And a lot of em refuse to go around after a 4 meter bounce. The white jet should have gone around. The pilots got to practice a bit more.
+Kian Tabrizi I feel the same way - its like none of these guys have ever landed an RC plane before. I have never flown ones that big before though, so maybe its different, but there was a lot of bad approaches going on here. Its like they were all far to rough on the sticks, no finesse whatsoever.
Kian Tabrizi hehe, that could be too. I learned to fly on a PC simulator and practiced the heck out of it. Then I slowly moved up from micros (started with the bMSr and Hobbyzone champ) Once I had those I started going up sizes. But all that startup time got me to where even my larger 55 and 60 inch wingspan warbirds usually come home in once piece. I actually haven't lost a plane in about 10 years. Well, one on purpose, but I don't count that one.
Die schonst Der welt!! This has to be my all time favorite RUclips video. Fantastic builds, and the end? Zu spass! You guys have too much fun! I laugh so hard each time I watch this.... Velen danke!!! Tschuss aus California!
Many thanks for your great comment, _Wayne_. I'm very glad to know that you liked watching this video. You're completely right. We always have a lot of fun before, during and after the flights. Especially at the "after flight parties" on saturday night :) _Best regards from the cold Bavaria_
I notice that pilots here often seem to rely on elevator and aileron while landing with thottle on idle where they would have far better results controlling height with throttle and correcting heading with rudder only
I know right. When they are about to land they pitch up, and then pitch down with the elevator. So they have a greater chance of crashing. Thats how most of the planes on on this funny moments thing
It's exactly what's taught to manned pilots. Keep wings level (if no cross wind) use rudder to control heading and keep Tue back pressure till she pretty much stalls onto the runway. It's tricky with these light rc aircraft though. Well flown though
Vielen Dank für den lobenden Kommentar. Ja, die Modelle sind großartig und die meisten davon sind bis ins kleinste Detail dem Original nachgebaut. Da tut es richtig weh, wenn etwas kaputt geht. Zum Glück blieben die Schäden gering. Bei ein paar war allerdings nichts mehr zu reparieren. Hoffen wir auf ein besseres Flugjahr 2014 Viele Grüße, RCSA
I've made some of the same mistakes when learning to fly jets. Like not flaring at landing but instead flying it into the strip, making it balloon up. It's hard to see so many landings at that field doing the same thing. But everyone here seems really supportive of each other! I'm sure everyone helps and teaches each other here. Good people and BEAUTIFUL planes! Some of the landings were perfection! Including some of the deadstick ones. Great video!
7:27 Seems pretty determined to get it on the ground. No back pressure = enormous bounce. Recovered ok by the addition of power, but really should have gone around after that bounce.
WOW! Um so wunderschöne Flugzeuge zu bauen und sie so begnadet zu fliegen muss man vermutlich ein Nerd sein, oder? Chapeau! Auch vielen Dank für's Filmen und erklärt Hochladen, so dass ein vollkommen Unkundiger wie ich sich das Video drei mal hintereinander anschaut. Ich wusste nicht mal, dass es Modelldüsenflugzeuge gibt, und dann sehe ich so eine tolle Me262! Also nochmals danke!
You should watch some of my uploaded videos and you will see that same pilots can fly and land like a pro. This video shows a summary of the *_Moments_* I've captured during the season. Best regards, RCSA
Amazing aircraft and a lot of talent on this video. I especially appreciate the pointers on how not to land. I usually get out the shop vac after one of my landings 😁.
90% of these pilots need to go and practice with a foamie for a bit. Seems to me they have way too much plane for their skill. Money comes easy for some.... Lol
I don't normally care for crash videos. However seeing all those great recovery's and all of your pilots practice their craft is a real treat!! Spectacular planes and great fun to watch knowing how much work goes into getting ready for your big show each year. You guys are a true inspiration. Keep up the great work guys and good flights to you !!
Thank you very much for your kind comment, which I really appreciate ! I usually do not upload crash videos *(ツ)* ... in 2013 I have, fortunately, seen only a few total losses. Happy flying in 2014 Best regards, RCSA
I think it's great to see that you guys are like the rest of us. Having problems from time to time. As you say we can't all be perfect. But I also saw some very impressive landings. As always great video.
Beautiful planes. This was obviously a compilation of bad landings or incidents that occured throughout the year. So it only represents a small percentage of what actually goes on in the group. Anyone who says they can land anything perfectly every time is a troll. It's called dumb thumbs. Thanks for the video. Carnage is always better when it's not your plane.
Thank you for your great comment. You are one of the very few people who understand the meaning of this video. This are a summary of the *_Moments_* I've captured during the season. _Best regards, RCSA_
Great video, I've only been flying a year and just moved upto warbirds and finding out how much skill they require not only to fly but take off and land. Infact landing is by far the hardest thing to do if you dont want to keep bringing your bird home in peices so well done to everyone. Have a great 2014
Great videos! Been watching for a while now. I always revisit the ones I've already watched a dozen times. Great planes and piloting. Seems like a good group of people at your field. Cheers.
never seen so much bad landing skill at the same time before. I flew scale model planes for several years in my teens, and these are some pure rookie landings. most of them are coming in way too high, almost missing the whole strip.
Maybe, but bear in mind it is effectively an outtake video, if those are the worst moments of a years full flying,... I'm guessing the pilots are all human after all ;)
It's easy to say that when you were probably flying a 40 size trainer in your teens, but if you stayed in the hobby long enough, and you managed to get the skill these guys have - flying aircraft worth thousands of dollars each - then I think you would have had a different view.
Pilots have a saying... Any landing you can walk away from is a good landing. when flying an RC that makes pretty much ANY landing a good landing, lol!!
Vielen Dank Markus. Stimmt ... da waren einige brenzlige Situationen dabei. Glücklicherweise blieben die Schäden gering. Hoffen wir auf ein unfallfreies Fliegen 2014 !!! Viele Grüße, Horst
I'm a helicopter person but went to a scale model airplane fun fly to watch, talked to some of the people there and found out they build these things from scratch , I mean blue prints and wood, some have real radial engines worth thousands. These guys are not rookies. It takes a lot of skill just to build one of those things. If they get it down in one piece it was a good landing
They are ready to fly models. The fuselage at least, is allready made and many of them, have nothing to do other than put motor and electronics. Even with this work left, I saw a couple of models clearly with bad CG position. Thousands of dollars models have nothing to do with person's skills.
RCScaleAirplanes If you show me the mold from which they made their fuselages it would be much quicker, no? :) It would be even much quicker if you asked them. I dont think they have the nerve to say that they build them from scratch. Nevertheless if you google you can find dozzens of companies, from USA to Fillipines specialized in composite rc models. Scratch builders are a rare species now a days, especially in this giant scale.
Guardian Observer Buying a fusealage means RTF for you? You're right. All planes shown in my videos are RTF's and after purchase them, it's enough to charge the (already built-in) batteries and fill up the tank. I will not link any Facebook pages here, where many of the pilots showing off their skill in building an airplane. Take your time and search for it by yourself. _So now please, stop asking about from what the planes are made. It's not the matter to be discussed here._ .... and I have no desire to waste my time for this kind of conversations. _SORRY_ btw. This video shows a summary of the *Moments* I've captured during the season. Nothing else. _Best regards, RCSA_
People need to start training with tiny planes before moving up to this stuff it like from pre school to college in a second and people like this shouldn't have these things because if they come in for a landing NOT TRAINED they could seriously injure someone it really annoys me
Excellent video with some very impressive models, particularly the more unusual Luftwaffe variants. I will definitely try and get to your event this year.
8:20 early balloon, then a second, drops back pressure on the elevator which guarantees a nosewheel first landing and a bounce. Fails to add power so a couple more nosewheel first bounces then surprise, the nosewheel breaks or folds up... Gotta get that power back in after the first bounce. Turbine makes it much harder of course due to spool up.
A very entertaining video showing some beautiful models and also some great saves where things may have gone very bad! Also proof that the approach is 90% of a good landing!
I've been flying Rc for almost thirty years and have absolutely no desire to ever fly one of these huge, expensive gassers,... that said they are just so beautiful! :) Great video as ever - thanks for sharing it. (I'll have to re-watch several times - which is hardly a chore - but did the guy piloting the F4U whose gear collapsed catch that wing drop? If so, it's easily one of the most impressive bits of piloting I've ever seen! Cheers!)
EXCELLENT !!! Thank you for sharing - you guys have some great flying skills ! Those big, heavy beast warplanes are a taildragging handful, particularly on grass - hats off to all of you - what fun !!!
Many thanks for your fantastic comment. The scene from 3:08 to 3:43 was at an airfield for full scale airplanes and due to the fact that it rained weeks before, the grass could not be be cut. We whish you a HAPPY NEW YEAR !!
Und runter kommen sie immer.. :) hier zeigt sich einmal wieder wie schwer es ist zu Fliegen und vor allem wie Teuer es werden kann. Aber ihr habt mit dem Video viele tolle Modelle gefilmt..
Vielen Dank für Deinen tollen Kommentar. Originalgetreue Nachbauten sind meistens sehr schwierig zu fliegen. Bei Wind wirds bei den Landungen dann umso schwieriger. Die perfekten Landungen kann man auf den anderen Videos bestaunen. Dies ist nur ein Auschnitt von kniffligen Situationen aus der vergangenen Saison.
Very nice models! I’m curious as to what causes them to tilt forward and go into the ground on take off sometimes. I don’t know anything about RC flying.
Lots of beautiful airplanes - well done, builders ! A small mistake or misjudgement - even a gust of wind or radio noise can cause a crash. I feel this gives the hobby the nerve it needs to be really exciting ! Thank you for sharing the video :)
It was really great to watch a video and hear the engines and all the real sounds instead of noisy ear blasting music. Very well done, gentlemen, I enjoyed it. Thank you for sharing.
thank you for your kind comment, Bob. much appreciated !!!
Some amazing recoveries in this vid! Must be heartbreaking to crash one of those lovely big planes. Loved the dead stick landings!
Many thanks for your kind comment. Some one of them did a great job. Others were not that lucky. But that's a part of the game :(
How did I miss this for so long?! Great compilation Horst, and I love how you give the cause of an accident - when I saw that La-7 go in I was just about to say what happened - and you answered it! Very sad about that one, but happy to see only 1 mechanical failure and only 1 write off! Amazing saves and some great luck (and some bad luck too!) Thanks for sharing!
Hello my friend. No problem for your delayed comment. I know that it is difficult to watch and comment to all the videos uploaded from my friends.
As you can see, I've missed your comment as well :)
As a model pilot I hate to see planes crashing. This video shows once more that on tricky wind conditions things becomes even more difficult.
_Happy flying to you !!!_
It's disheartening to see so many poorly executed landings with such beautiful models.
Its amazing. I don’t understand why they are not circling around with full flap, gear down, cut idle, and bring it in nice and slow all the while using throttle to adjust speed and rudder direction. If you are straight there is no need for ailerons or elevator of your level on approach, and if you are not, you should circle around for another attempt.

Bad landing can happen to the best pilots,no one is perfect.
There seems to be a strong crosswind present.
Single prop aircraft landing,.... Cut throttle and reduce flaps on touchdown or get used to eating dirt.
What an amazing collection of rc aircraft, thank you for posting....
A lot of skilled pilots, and the video is excellent!
Thank you for your compliments, _John_. I really appreciate.
I'm very pleased to know, that you liked watching the video.
_Regards, RCSA_
Thank you so much for not putting some lame song over the audio! Good stuff!
Thank you for your compliments, which I really appreciate. I'm very pleased to know, that you liked watching the video.

RCScaleAirplanes And thank you for the video! Seriously, one of the better RC compilation vids available here on youtube.. Good watchable quality, well filmed, and edited nicely!
Sad that some plates crash 😢 but very nice video 😊😊
So nice to hear those 4 strokes!!
Oh, absolutely! I hate that! Gotta hear the engines!
Unfortunately, mishaps and crashes happen in this hobby. There were a lot of great looking models in this video. Thank you for sharing!!!
*_thank you for your great comment !!!_*
I saw a LOT of impressive flying skill. It takes a lot of guts just to fly those things.
My jaw dropped at many of those recoveries... they looked impossible to get out of! I hoped everyone watched it to the end. That was funny!
Thank you so much for your kind comment, *Jeff* !!!
I'm happy that you enjoyed the video until the end *(ツ)*
Cheers, Horst
Glad you said something about watching until the end! I agree outstanding flying, and great examples of some beautiful planes!
Jason Ray Thank you Jason, for your compliments !!!
Jason Ray
I agree. Some amazing pilots with some awesome aircraft.
4:32 Bloodstain from the last camera guy to stand there. : P
*LOL* ... at least the Piolt has turned off the engine in time.
wieder einmal ein großartige Sammlung zum Jahresende! ;-)
Besten Dank, Klaus. Hoffentlich bleibt es auch im neuen Jahr nur bei kleineren Kratzern.
I've been a scratch builder since 1987, I've built from Ziroli plans, and if what I see in this video is a year worth of bad landings? All is good, don't be a critic of something you don't know. Well done. AMA member.

at 2:42 finally a perfect example of go around if you see that landing will fail..just perfect from that pilot
Always best just to hit it again... He nailed that last landing instead of crashing.
Hunter
ts very easy to judge from your arm chair
Hunter hypocrite

So true.
Very few things are done perfectly with the first attempt. Seeing other people fail and get better may give other new modelists the courage to try. Thank you for sharing these humble beginnings.
Thank you for your kind comment, which I really appreciate !!! 🤙😎
Epic video!
Most of these pilots were awesome.
The best part is... all the pilots survived.
_Thank you for your kind comment, Bill. Much appreciated !_ 👍
It happens to the best of us , as you say no one is perfect , many thanks for all the awsome videos you guys have done , for our enjoyment , all the best for the coming new year , keep the vids coming
Thank you *John*, for your kind comment. We are glad that we were able to entertain you and we will do our best to show you some great videos also in 2014.
Hi Horst
Thanks for the moments of 2013, great video review, I enjoyed. Looking forward to 2014 as you bring the best in scale RC. Big thumbs Up..Tim
Hello Tim ... Thank you been all this time with us. Glad to have you here.
All the best for the new season and always happy flying. *Happy New Year*
Best regards, Horst
Truly enjoyed the 2013 moments. It's nice to share the full reality of the RC flying hobby with the good and bad landings. I haven't recovered yet from my first and last disaster crash (20 years ago) ;-)
Thank you very much for your great comment. I'm glad to know that you liked watching the video.

Great video guys. Enjoyed watching it.
Many thanks _Paul_ !
Some really painful moments, but also very beautiful landings. Loved the sound of that go-around @ 2:41!
Many thanks for your comment, which I appreciate !!!
COOL!! Enjoyed watching these - these RCs are massive and it's good you didn't put any background music as that would have ruined it :P
Thank you for your compliments, which I really appreciate.
I'm very pleased to know, that you liked watching the video.
_Regards, RCSA_
Thanks for showing us all those beautiful scale warbirds over the past year! Looking forward to 2014 :-)
Many thanks for your kind comment, *Darren*. 2014 will be a good one :)

7:39 Exactly the same mistake as 7:27, but no power added so his nice model ends up on its nose.
Your camerawork is fantastic,mine is not.You film great models and pilots,i do not.
We all have fun though i think.:)
Fantastic video Horst,thanks for the videos of 2013 and all the best to you my friend.
Thank you very much for your compliments !!!
Also to you and yours all the best in 2014

Many thanks for watching and commenting. Much appreciated !!!
Lesson #1 when flying tailwheel planes, "Elevator stick ALL the way back" when on the ground!!!
Nobody is going to be perfect. Even the best flier in the group is going to have a crash every once in a while. These videos bring back memories when me and my dad use to fly rc airplanes and I gotta say it was worth every penny we spent. Great video keep up the amazing work. The ending was hilarious.
I completely agree.

may be worried about fuel, a lot of people time when the fuel is about dry so the know when to land. possibly not planning enough slop in.
Clint Smith That is a good point. Its probably similar to electric flight, but you get way more time to fly with gas.
That may be true but I feel like it's more of a spend all your time building and no flying then going to fly a warbird without any practice.
Kian Tabrizi hehe, that could be too. I learned to fly on a PC simulator and practiced the heck out of it. Then I slowly moved up from micros (started with the bMSr and Hobbyzone champ) Once I had those I started going up sizes.

Shhhhh! We owners of rc models stores want customers!
K en using rudder mid flight is almost useless it’s not needed really all you need to control to fly in mid air is ailerons elevator and throttle
Toller Zusammenschnitt mit sehr interessanten Aufnahmen. Die Modellflugzeuge reißen einen vom Hocker. Dicken Daumen hoch. Grüße

i enjoy your videos and learn alot by watching them, keep up the great work!
Many thanks Scott. I hope you're not going to destroy your aircraft on landing :)

He must’ve made a go around
What happened to the Ultimate at 1:33?
Are the top and bottom ailerons moving in the opposite direction?
Thanks for the video(s), they're awsome!
3:14-3:20 That nose seems to have a strong affinity for the ground.
WOW! Um so wunderschöne Flugzeuge zu bauen und sie so begnadet zu fliegen muss man vermutlich ein Nerd sein, oder? Chapeau!

Money does not equal....Good engineering or flying talent....Bounce, Bounce, Bounce...Nose over. Excellent footage of bad flying:-)
You should watch some of my uploaded videos and you will see that same pilots can fly and land like a pro.
This video shows a summary of the *_Moments_* I've captured during the season.
Best regards, RCSA
One of the best video compilations I have seen. Well done.
5:32 you can see the desire to turn too low in an attempt to get back onto the strip. Luckily he didnt turn enough to catch the wing.
amazing landing friend
Thank you! Cheers!
At 4:20, the turbine failure and recovery, that is a pilot right there...!
Awesome video!!!
Camera men or woman should be really proud for this work!!
Thanks for sharing.
Many thanks for your compliments. I really appreciate it.
what a fantastic video, sorry to see such beauties crashing and getting damaged !
great filming as always horst, thanks for posting.
- deano
Love your video work. I hate to see beautiful aircraft damaged or destroyed, but good video anyhow.
Thank you Deano. Most of them got only minor scratches.
In 2013 I have, fortunately, seen only a 3 total losses.
Happy flying in 2014
Cheers, Horst
Craig Snelson Many thanks Craig. Happy flying season to you !
haha! the little fireworks truck at the end was perfect!
don't try this at home *(ツ)*
Amazing aircraft and a lot of talent on this video. I especially appreciate the pointers on how not to land. I usually get out the shop vac after one of my landings 😁.
Fantastic models with some great piloting.
Really enjoyed that video. Thanks.
Many thanks for your compliments !
3/4 of the way threw and I realize the like button is already blue. I'll probably do the same thing 6 months from now LOL
*LOL* ... Thank you for coming back once again 😀👍
Amazing video, these have always taught me to land and take off with rudder, not to bank and yank then suffer the same fate as these planes lol
Cut! The grass yall! Thanks for the video. Also, I forgot to say,, Wash your hands. I wonder if glow fuel or nitro might help kill this stuff?
LOL ... they will do 🤙😂
Hervorragende Arbeit, danke an den Künstler...
Danke für`s Anschauen und Kommentieren !!!
None of them seem to know what a rudder is for. I fly heli so you know damn well i do!!!
5:42 Engine running, nose down no flare. MIssed the strip.
Was something else going to happen?
90% of these pilots need to go and practice with a foamie for a bit. Seems to me they have way too much plane for their skill.
Money comes easy for some.... Lol
However, knowing the do's and don'ts of taildragger flying would have saved a lot of these planes.
I don't normally care for crash videos. However seeing all those great recovery's and all of your pilots practice their craft is a real treat!! Spectacular planes and great fun to watch knowing how much work goes into getting ready for your big show each year. You guys are a true inspiration. Keep up the great work guys and good flights to you !!
Thank you very much for your kind comment, which I really appreciate !
I usually do not upload crash videos *(ツ)* ... in 2013 I have, fortunately, seen only a few total losses.
Happy flying in 2014
Best regards, RCSA
well i had i bad landings too, sometimes i was lucky too. it's part of the this hobby, you just live and learn.
You're completely right ;)
I think it's great to see that you guys are like the rest of us. Having problems from time to time. As you say we can't all be perfect. But I also saw some very impressive landings. As always great video.
Thank you very much for your great comment. I'm glad to know that you liked watching the video.
*Happy New Year and Happy Flying in 2014*
Beautiful planes. This was obviously a compilation of bad landings or incidents that occured throughout the year. So it only represents a small percentage of what actually goes on in the group. Anyone who says they can land anything perfectly every time is a troll. It's called dumb thumbs. Thanks for the video. Carnage is always better when it's not your plane.
Thank you for your great comment. You are one of the very few people who understand the meaning of this video.
This are a summary of the *_Moments_* I've captured during the season.
_Best regards, RCSA_
8:26 Ryan Air pilot’s hobby no doubt.
South West 😂😂😂
Wheels, ground-affect, all so great camera work ! Very motivational ! Thank you, all !
This stuff is better than NASCAR.
*LOL* 😉🤘
3:08 - I wonder if the ground clearance for the proppeler in the P-40 was an actual issue... these things always happen to me in a certain game.
Thank you for watching and commenting !
No, the problem was that the tall grass had too much resistance and the pilot gave not enough elevator.
great vid horst, shame these beauties get damaged but thats all part of it i suppose !
love the firework at the end - lmfao,
- pete,
Thanks Pete. Yes, unfortunately it's a part of our hobby.
btw. I like fireworks :)
cheers, Horst
RCScale it is unfortunate on crashes but what brings us back to the runway is the thrill of flying and having fun ! cheers and great video
RCpilot Desjardins Many thanks for your great comment. I fully agree !!!
I love the big planes, they use to have them in the mall every once in a while 100s of them.
By far the best video of Rcs I have seen.
Who’s watching in 2020?
😉 😂
I hate these stupid fucking comments about a specific year so shut the fuck up
Great video, I've only been flying a year and just moved upto warbirds and finding out how much skill they require not only to fly but take off and land. Infact landing is by far the hardest thing to do if you dont want to keep bringing your bird home in peices so well done to everyone. Have a great 2014
Thank you so much for your kind comment, I really appreciate.
*Happy Flying and a Happy New Year*
Best regards, RCSA
Some epic "saves" there! Its true what they say, a good landing requires a well set up approach...
Great videos! Been watching for a while now. I always revisit the ones I've already watched a dozen times. Great planes and piloting. Seems like a good group of people at your field. Cheers.
Thank you so much for your kind comment, Rob. I really appreciate it.
Best regards, RCSA
That f9f pilot was top notch
With a plane like that, he better be!
Fun with the rocket - truck! very nice. Excellent video as usual. Danke sehr viel für Teilen!
1:56 in that P 51 mustang is Ac☆Dc
Thanks for the great video. Some superb models and flying on display. Danke sehr
Thank you Pauline, for the great comment, which I appreciate very much !
never seen so much bad landing skill at the same time before. I flew scale model planes for several years in my teens, and these are some pure rookie landings. most of them are coming in way too high, almost missing the whole strip.
Maybe, but bear in mind it is effectively an outtake video, if those are the worst moments of a years full flying,... I'm guessing the pilots are all human after all ;)
ZagadkaTeg from the sound of the audience I get the feeling that most landings are merely controlled crashes.
ZagadkaTeg I fully agree and I notice that you understood the video title !!!
... *_thanks_* ...
It's easy to say that when you were probably flying a 40 size trainer in your teens, but if you stayed in the hobby long enough, and you managed to get the skill these guys have - flying aircraft worth thousands of dollars each - then I think you would have had a different view.
Pilots have a saying... Any landing you can walk away from is a good landing. when flying an RC that makes pretty much ANY landing a good landing, lol!!
Da ist Herzklopfen angesagt. Toller Zusammenschnitt. Gruss, Markus
Vielen Dank Markus. Stimmt ... da waren einige brenzlige Situationen dabei. Glücklicherweise blieben die Schäden gering. Hoffen wir auf ein unfallfreies Fliegen 2014 !!!
Viele Grüße, Horst
I'm a helicopter person but went to a scale model airplane fun fly to watch, talked to some of the people there and found out they build these things from scratch , I mean blue prints and wood, some have real radial engines worth thousands. These guys are not rookies. It takes a lot of skill just to build one of those things. If they get it down in one piece it was a good landing
They are ready to fly models. The fuselage at least, is allready made and many of them, have nothing to do other than put motor and electronics. Even with this work left, I saw a couple of models clearly with bad CG position. Thousands of dollars models have nothing to do with person's skills.
Guardian Observer If they are RTF models, please send me the link where I can buy one:)
RCScaleAirplanes If you show me the mold from which they made their fuselages it would be much quicker, no? :)
It would be even much quicker if you asked them. I dont think they have the nerve to say that they build them from scratch.
Nevertheless if you google you can find dozzens of companies, from USA to Fillipines specialized in composite rc models.
Scratch builders are a rare species now a days, especially in this giant scale.
Guardian Observer Buying a fusealage means RTF for you?
You're right. All planes shown in my videos are RTF's and after purchase them, it's enough to charge the (already built-in) batteries and fill up the tank.
I will not link any Facebook pages here, where many of the pilots showing off their skill in building an airplane. Take your time and search for it by yourself.
_So now please, stop asking about from what the planes are made. It's not the matter to be discussed here._
.... and I have no desire to waste my time for this kind of conversations. _SORRY_
btw. This video shows a summary of the *Moments* I've captured during the season. Nothing else.
_Best regards, RCSA_
Ok. :)
You must be for sure an interesting person to meet in person :).
Can't wait to see the great 2014 video. Keep up the amazing work.
Many thanks for your kind comment !
I'm already collecting the _MOMENTS 2014_ :)
Big planes, small field equals plenty of drama.

2:38 that La-5 landing was flawless.
Yes some days are worst than others !
Great compilation! Thanks!
Glad you liked it!
2019 ?
End of the season 😉😂
Great watching at the very last. Great planes. A lot of time spent on these crafts. Great job!
Thank you Robert, for your kind comment !!!
People need to start training with tiny planes before moving up to this stuff it like from pre school to college in a second and people like this shouldn't have these things because if they come in for a landing NOT TRAINED they could seriously injure someone it really annoys me

Nuke 778 you
Excellent video with some very impressive models, particularly the more unusual Luftwaffe variants. I will definitely try and get to your event this year.
Thank you for your kind comment. I'm glad to know that you liked watching the video!
You're always welcome. B.regards, RCSA
"You can teach monkeys to fly better than this"
8:20 early balloon, then a second, drops back pressure on the elevator which guarantees a nosewheel first landing and a bounce. Fails to add power so a couple more nosewheel first bounces then surprise, the nosewheel breaks or folds up... Gotta get that power back in after the first bounce. Turbine makes it much harder of course due to spool up.
A very entertaining video showing some beautiful models and also some great saves where things may have gone very bad! Also proof that the approach is 90% of a good landing!
Man, it just wasn't a P-47 kind of day, but I can't say that they didn't try. I've never flown an RC, so I have no idea. Excellent video, thank you!
Thank you for your kind coments.
I'm very pleased to know, that you liked watching the video.
_Regards, RCSA_
I've been flying Rc for almost thirty years and have absolutely no desire to ever fly one of these huge, expensive gassers,... that said they are just so beautiful! :) Great video as ever - thanks for sharing it.
(I'll have to re-watch several times - which is hardly a chore - but did the guy piloting the F4U whose gear collapsed catch that wing drop? If so, it's easily one of the most impressive bits of piloting I've ever seen! Cheers!)
EXCELLENT !!! Thank you for sharing - you guys have some great flying skills ! Those big, heavy beast warplanes are a taildragging handful, particularly on grass - hats off to all of you - what fun !!!
Many thanks for your fantastic comment.
The scene from 3:08 to 3:43 was at an airfield for full scale airplanes and due to the fact that it rained weeks before, the grass could not be be cut.
We whish you a HAPPY NEW YEAR !!
Happy New Year to you, yours and your flying buddies ! Looking forward to more videos !!
2512rc Thank you !
We will do our best to show more fantastic videos on our channel. *stay tuned*
Best reagrds, RCSA
Brilliant video...those big birds look HARD to land!!
Many thanks. Yes, like the original one ... not always easy !
Great video. A tricky flying field for such big models.
Und runter kommen sie immer.. :) hier zeigt sich einmal wieder wie schwer es ist zu Fliegen und vor allem wie Teuer es werden kann. Aber ihr habt mit dem Video viele tolle Modelle gefilmt..
Vielen Dank für Deinen tollen Kommentar.
Originalgetreue Nachbauten sind meistens sehr schwierig zu fliegen. Bei Wind wirds bei den Landungen dann umso schwieriger.
Die perfekten Landungen kann man auf den anderen Videos bestaunen.
Dies ist nur ein Auschnitt von kniffligen Situationen aus der vergangenen Saison.
Very nice models! I’m curious as to what causes them to tilt forward and go into the ground on take off sometimes. I don’t know anything about RC flying.
The planes in this video are simply amazing. Thanks for sharing...
Thank you Graig. I'm glad to know that you liked watching the video !
What a beautiful Foch Wolf! Great video
Lots of beautiful airplanes - well done, builders ! A small mistake or misjudgement - even a gust of wind or radio noise can cause a crash. I feel this gives the hobby the nerve it needs to be really exciting ! Thank you for sharing the video :)
What a fantastic video~~~~~ Drink just one more Augustiner and watch again.........
Thanks .... _looooool_ why not :)
Enjoyable video, Some of the planes had very realistic engine noise, great to watch and hear.
Thank your very much for your kind comment. Much appreciated !!!
