I grew up about 50 miles north of Carswell AFB (Ft. Worth, TX) & as a wee lad, marveled at these giants flying over on a regular basis. The sound was thunderous & the sight awe-inspiring. One of my favorite planes of all time. Beautiful rendition, mates! Good on ya!
My uncle was a Chief Master Sargent in U.S. Air Force for 31 years and retired in 1972. During his Air Force career, he flew in the B-29, B-36 and B-52 as a tail gunner out of Fort Worth/Carswell AFB.
"Six turning and four humming" ? Always my favorite and that's not just because my Uncle was a chief master sergeant in the U.S. Air Force for 31 years and retired in 1972. During his Air Force career, he flew in the B-29, B-36 and B-52 as a tail gunner. 🇺🇲
When I was a kid in the early 1950’s, one summer a huge number of B36’s flew over. It went on for a couple of days, 2 or 3 each day all flying south. They had a very unique sound, not like any other multi engine airplane. They were quite high but you could clearly see them. It never happened again. Probably 1952 or 53.
How did they not hear the Port Outboard engine only beep 1 time for 1 cell and see the difference in spool up and spool down? So much for a thorough pre-flight!
2827 was the last B-36 built. In 1959 it was retired and put on display at Greater Southwest Airport in Ft Worth. In the late 70s I was part of the crew that disassembled her to move across town to Carswell AFB, where she remained until the USAF transferred custodianship to the Pima Air Museum, where she is today.
video description reads, " It is planned to have it flying for the PDARCS scratch built rally on November 11 & 12." Since this was dated 2017, I would also like to know if it flies.
@@rogersmith7396 It could drop nearly the full weight of two armed and loaded, fully fueled complete B-17s out of its bomb bay. It could fly a mile higher than an ME-109. It was designed to fly from Canada to Berlin and back on a bombing run. (In case the Battle of Britain went badly.) And Dad saw it on the drawing board at Consolidated Aircraft in 1941, before the U.S. entered the war, when it was still a secret project. But yeah, it had some technical issues. 🙂 For example, it originally had huge tires for wheels before they invented the multi-wheel trucks for the landing gear. And the jets were to get it rolling fast enough on the ground to take off in a decent distance and climb in a decent amount of time. They were shut down in flight. And adding them had to wait until jets were, like, invented, during the war.
@@ThatBoomerDude56 SAC Omaha has the original landing gear. The tires are 8 to 10 feet tall. They also have a Goblin, said to fly pretty well. A 36 carried a nuclear reactor, dropped an A bomb on Albequerque, could fly far higher than a MiG 15, could stay up 36 hours. The prototype did'nt have the dog house on top it looked like a B 29. The plane is jammed full of tube type ECM. A crewman could get into the wings to inspect the engines. They had remote operated turrets which were later removed to increase altitude. No arial refueling. 10,000 mile range. Deicers in the propellers.
@@rogersmith7396 That's cool. (Well, except for the Albuquerque incident. I hadn't heard about that one.) Dad said a person could not only get into the wings, but could stand up inside. (He was only 5'8". I'm not sure how high the space was.) And he said that part of its ECM was a chaff dispenser in the back of the plane connected to 3 rolls of aluminum foil each 3' in diameter that made the thing look like a solid wall across the sky on radar. (I found a picture of the chaff dispenser slot once, but can't find it now.) He told me about the B-36N (nuclear) experiment when I was a kid. That sounds to me like a really dumb idea now. But I hadn't realized until recently that the GE engine for it actually proceeded to ground-test before Kennedy killed the project.
@@ThatBoomerDude56 The problem was with a crew safe nuclear reactor there was no weight for bombs. It was called the hole in the head bomber. Never heard how it was supposed to work but I assume steam turbines would turn the props and the reactor would make steam. There is a crewman interview at Castle AFB/museum which settles a lot of the planes controversy. It could fly at 63000 feet and often went over the USSR. They would sleep when over the USSR it was invulnerable. Also he laughs at going into the wings to oil the engines. He says they take hundreds of gallons of oil and their is no way a guy could get that to them.
SIX Turnin' and FOUR Burnin' !
Beautiful craftsmanship !

Nice work, I love the plane. I have always liked it, this version and the original with 10 ft diameter wheels.
Simply amazing work Lads! what beautiful work!
B36 is a monster airplane, even the model is huge
What a very cool plane!
Beautiful. Love those R/C Cold War Aircraft. Keep them flying. I'm retired USAF.

Are you in the States ?
machia0705 Yes
Brilliant! Cannot wait to see it in the air!
ruclips.net/video/h_-13r0Keqw/видео.html
John Lindsey that only has six engines.
Keep em Flying 👍
That is bloody unreal
That outboard port engine doesn't seem to be as free-wheeling as the other five are.
Absolutely incredible remote control model. But, I wouldn't want to be the person at the controls and there's a crash!
How did they not hear the Port Outboard engine only beep 1 time for 1 cell and see the difference in spool up and spool down?
So much for a thorough pre-flight!
wow I love my youtube recommended this is amazing lol 6 churning 4 burning! so cool
that is Awesome i'd love to see it fly
Wow. What a beautiful beast! Best looking bomber ever built. Does anyone know the specs for the motors and propellers?
Nice push cart...
You may want to remove the dynamic brake from engine/motor #6
Not quite the sound of six turn'n and four burn'n, but what a model.
Gentlemen, that is awesome!
Looks like the left side engine suit is producing more thrust making crab on the ground?
the 2 jet engines that were added due to the total unreliability of the push configuration of the Pratt and Whitney engines
If it was made out of solar panels would they make enough electricity to add to the flight time?

Awesome model. Seems the electronic brake is set to on engine #1.
Indeed.
You lololol
They named it Peacemaker because they said the plane gave the target no option
Sounds like a damned air raid siren😂👌🎯🔥
OMG! Fly the damn thing already!
Well it did say "test" in the title...
I thought that my Revell 1/72 Peacemaker was a big bugger, I stand humbled.
i was thinking the same thing, i built the revell kit years ago.
Lindo e maravilhoso!!
The last motor set to brake on. And steering gear not work?
Engines are numbered 1-6 left to right.
Thought i saw a little james stewart doll lookin out th window
So when are you going to make something big and complicated?
Very cool.
An Aussie, that’s even better 🇦🇺
Beautiful! Get those turbines to work too!!!
do you miss the inimitable 36 sounds!!
Appears to be six turning and four bur, uh I mean 10 turning.
That was to too cool
They have one at Castle Air force museum......they are gigantic
BAD ASS !!
Wow nice all
We’re sorry your number cannot be connected as dialed.

Did DAG 214 do any of the design?
Cool model, seems pointless to have the outer engines functional.
Not really! It ads to the cool! 😎
SO GOOD OF THEM TO TAKE THE PLANE FOR A WALK!!!!!!!!!!!
So when does it fly???
Yes
So they just run around with it. Does it fly?
Ben Gaarder can't be bothered to read the video description, huh?
video description reads, " It is planned to have it flying for the PDARCS scratch built rally on November 11 & 12." Since this was dated 2017, I would also like to know if it flies.
Perfection! ruclips.net/video/h_-13r0Keqw/видео.html
John Lindsey not the same model.
That's funny, I thought the same thing.
Isso é um aviao bao carrinho de controle remoto coloca ele pra voar
Any plans to do some tip towing with this fine rig ? ruclips.net/video/30d59njxIMw/видео.html .
Spoiler alert: The plane does not take off in this video.
um, does it fly on it's own???
six turning four burning.
James Stewart.
What´s the point in publishing a vid about a plane that doesn´t fly?
Try reading the title before you watch a video.
Six a turning four a blowing ...it's not the same.
That's pretty cool. The only improvement would be smoke-belching gasoline powered radial engines.
The ones that caught fire all the time.

engines sound like a swarm of mosquitos
No 1 got it's own life. Fix it before getting airborne.
Not very realistic. Electric's are not very realistic but admittedly they do have reliability as long as the batteries don't catch fire, of course!
All that and no flight that was a joke
The model is awesome but on electric power it's kinda not as exciting
Very nice model. Too bad its an ev. Oh well
Nice. Would have been more impressive if it was gas powered and jets worked... So I could say: 6 turning & 4 burning😎✈️
Make peace with bombs? Strange US country.
Yep. It worked for all of the cold war.
Yep. It worked for all of the cold war.
Sort of like the Russians attacking South Korea.
@@rogersmith7396 I Will laugh when a B52 Will crash in your mobil home
@@guydelapetodiere Can't make any sense of your comment. Try again.
Electric yuk nice model though
Any housewife would be happy with one of these things.
Pretty much a wasted effort. Electric motors? Really?
