58% scale FW190. This week we put on first fiberglass layer. 3 more to go. profile.php?id=100093172503502&mibextid=LQQJ4d
ButcherBird FW190 mold creation
Переглядів 195Рік тому
This is part of a series on how we are creating a mold from a WAR FW190 plans aircraft. We hope to be able to build flying aircraft from these molds. The advantages of the molded airframes are strength, lightness, speed of build, added room, and aerodynamic enhancement.

We are going to prep for creating the mold. Waxing.... Next weekend we will have the bottom mold finished.

Hey afriend built a razorback p47 in mid 80s, he thinks yours might be the one he built, do you have builders name?

The video has an owner that bought it from someone else. It crashed due to exhaust pipe separation. Landed in a field and flipped over. I don’t think it flew again.
It is like something Dick Dastardly would fly to catch the pigeon...
3 plus years later and so true.
so glad to see an update, keep up the good work
Awesome effort guys!
Fantastic to see more great progress, I still need to get the 60% functioning REVI 16 gunsight completed and shipped to you.
You boys need an overhead winch. :0
Very interesting indeed 👍
We are redesigning the build method to create a much easier to build and much better aircraft. ua-cam.com/channels/yNPWnbTexAw1HoLylApqUA.html
The Bent Wing Birdy 🦅
Their Mitsubishi Zero is also very convincing! Put Yuki Tsunoda in one and you may think it is a 100% scale replica! ua-cam.com/video/oNwKqqjstbA/v-deo.html
I wish that was my bird!
Very helpful to see how you lifted and then supported the nose wheel. Thanks!
Thank God for mute!
I am parshall to the P - 47 W.A.R. Replica. That is nice! I wish I could build one and have the money to keep it some place. I am poor. DynoDon 64 on UA-cam built a W.A.R. F4U CORSAIR. I watched & followed his channel for 5 years, building his aircraft. Don is still trying to get the bugs out for his first flight. Don crafted his F4U Corsair after Pappy Boyington's LULU BELL, but renamed his F4U Corsair Suesy Bell after his wife.
The P-47 should have been bigger but wars were all the same basic size. I am making a carbon fiber FW190 at 58% scale. No wood or foam. It will be much easier to build and will have much better performance. Faster top speed and lower stall.
@@ChrisSims-zt6kv carbon fiber must cost a lot of money. Would it be cheaper to make a W.A.R. Replica out of spruce plwood?
@@richardbrowne3641 the spruce, foam, and fiberglass is difficult to build. Most plans never are finished. Carbon fiber will be light strong and easily buildable.
Thank you

Probably been a good interview if I could have heard it. CC didn't even work.
What's the scale compared to the real thing for these planes?
Technically, it's an F4U. The P-47 was an entirely different airplane, but, who's counting.....
I should have put a comma after the word corsair.
Both are in the video
UwU
Citabria is a pussy cat!
Awesome video But for the record the Black Sheep squadron was not Misfits They were highly educated very skilled young pilots Only portrayed as Misfits in the TV series Thank you for sharing your flight beautiful plane
The W.A.R. P - 47 IS MY FAVORITE WW2 light Sport Experimental aircraft. I wish I could find more videos of it.
I have video of the WAR P47 flying. Look for KJ P-47 video on my channel
ua-cam.com/video/4M_EwwJEizo/v-deo.htmlsi=IpyKCICcjmEwjNpt
2:12 how did you manage to record this? were you on another plane?
No. My friend Kevin had a pilot in another plane video, VHS.
KJ had a guy in another plane record it. VHS. It is old.
@@chrissims4085 Hi. Is it possible for you to digitalize the VHS, please.
@@Luiserc2001 the videos were recorded from tv screen and sent to me. Kevin doesn’t have a way to digitize without sending the videos to a company that does that.
I know you don't know me, but I just saw your video and read these comments. How many VHS tapes do you have? I have the equipment to transfer them digitally for you, and would be willing to do it simply as a favor depending on how many tapes there are. My father was a fighter pilot in the early 1950s and I grew up loving war planes.@@chrissims4085
Is that Russell making all that damn racket? Lol.
Hey Chris, great videos. Fellow airline guy. I’d like to talk to you about 190 build. Can we talk on the phone some time? Thanks
Crack proof?
The mold? Nothing is crack proof. The gel coat is not glass like. It can give a little.
no news?
There is an update on the ButcherBird UA-cam channel. We glassed the cowl and are working on the rudder.
i heard that a german company is making civilian versions of the FW190. I wonder where they are sold at.
Let me know if you find out! Full size?
@@chrissims4085 apperently full size. Basically the same thing as the ww2 FW190, but without the guns( of course )
@@chrissims4085 I have found out that the company is called flug werk, and they restore original FW190s to airworthy standards. So, if you have enough money to have them build a FW190 entirely made by their parts, you probably can. But the engine is different in its horsepower. Original was around 1,700, while the new one was 2,000 hp
Another guy just finished a mini f4u
Are you talking about Dyno Don?
@@ChrisSims-zt6kv yep!!
Question, why make a 60% replica when you can make a 1:1 replica?
Costs go way up. Bigger engine, structural analysis, aerodynamics analysis, and the price to the potential builder greatly limits the number of kits that could be sold. We already had a flying airframe and all the drawings for the metal parts.
The canopy on the FW 190 doesn't resemble the original plane, weren't they more squared off with flat windows instead of rounded?
Sorry, the BF109 had the canopy design I was thinking of.
Some really un pro is whaking a sheet metal whitt out well placed baking Rubber pad.
I'm looking forward to see the assembly process. Thx for this Video
Great to see this as a mold... I had one since sold down down south, but the original construction method is a pain. I also found it to be too small for me. I'll probably stop by the Arlington event.
We should gain some precious volume. We hope to slightly enlarge the canopy to gain additional room and still keep the FW lines.
Wonderful, wish you the best, great project
can't get enough of the project, and am wondering if once you have the 190 close to flying what is the next of the warbird family are you planning, if any at all,
P-40 Warhawk
Just curious as to why wouldn't you have a made a plug that was a bit bigger so that you could fit a Mp14 in it and be able to do aerobatics and have a faster speed yet ? The War types have always seemed a bit small to my thoughts and very light on the controls. Just wondering. :)
Bc that would create a lot of extra engineering and analysis. $$$$ We don’t even know if this will make financial sense.
Aerobatics is already doable. 130 hp will give us great performance
If you need help modeling the movement or anything in cad lmk. I was working on the kinematics of FW-190 landing gear for a project I've been working on. ua-cam.com/video/avEm2w8dz5g/v-deo.html&ab_channel=ClaySoehlig
the project is very advanced. another great video, Thx
I hope that the Vernier 5 or 7 cly will fit on the aircraft, it might not be as fast but sure would be more to the original, I am very impressed with what I have seen so far and the specs you have talked about, this would make a great sport aircraft
A 5cyl definitely would fit. The seven cylinder is an inch bigger than the current cowl with no room for margins.
@@ChrisSims-zt6kv thank you for the info, love what is going on with the project and would love to see it,
Any data or results on the testing of this spar? Thanks
This was for the starlight. As I recall it broke at somewhere near 1800#. So the total load would be 3600#. This allows us to modify the laminate schedule but we met the requirements of Starlight. Butcherbird will have double the schedule.
@@ChrisSims-zt6kv Really cool! Great work! Real engineering.
Composite spars break in compression. Thus, the top spar cap will have nearly double the layers of the bottom.
What an Exciting project !!! I Look forward to seeing it completed
looks amazing keep up the work.
the scale swaz is very well done, in Germany you won't be allowed to decal it in on any model airplane
Who was the original builder? I went to A&P school back in the early 80s and I had a classmate named Von that built one.
Wasn’t a Von but a Gerald
cool!
Looks a bit like the WAR stuff. Always wanted to build one, but just don't have the resources to make my own kit.
WARs are very labor intensive these days. You only get plans. We hope to make this a complete kit. Then you will only have to assemble it.
I want to know what plane is that at the 40 second mark that's getting the Predator 670 motor.
I look forward to each video, and now am beginning to understand better the madness of using carbon fiber over my thought of aluminum, it is really a sad thought that Verner Engines no longer produces their 3 cylinder Radial engine, for the ultra lite version that was talked about, yet I can see the 5 cly, mounted on this bird
