  • Largest radio controlled Yak-54 Aeroplane | Steve Carr | Popham Model Show 2023
    You got to give it to Steve Carr. He must have nerves of steel to get this monster Yak-54 in a hover so close to the ground. Built from a Pilot-RC kit, fitted out with Multiplex radio gear and powered by his own engine. Outstanding!
    Wingspan: 180 in (4.58M)
    Wing Area: 6290 sq in (40580sq cm)
    Fuselage length: 161 in(4.1M)
    Weight: empty weight with hardware 65.9 lbs (29.9kg)
    Engine: 400cc min (Self designed/built 550cc engine used by Steve Carr)

    Love the yak. Nice flight. Starting it looked a bit a sketchy. I wouldn’t want to start it without another holding it back. 😅

    The only thing missing on that huge plane is Electric Start. Those Wheels and Landing Struts look scale puny.

      Because UA-cam doesn't notify subscribers unless they also check the bell icon. With Facebook works better. Like a Page you get all its content by default unless you select otherwise

    Awesome. Dont mind the haters. I had a 14 ft enclosed trailer, big planes, always at the field, saw jets, seen a guy flying under a broom on plastic chairs, saw a six pack dropped from a plane, never saw that skill and guts with that big a plane. Bravo

    I wanted to compliment you on your shots. They’re always very still. Very little shaking. Are you using some type of gimbal when you shoot your video? If so, what type of gimbal are you using?

    • @EssentialRC
      @EssentialRC  Рік тому

      I'm not using a smartphone on a gimbal, I'm using a decent camcorder. Panasonic HC-X2

    Sick!!! So sick!!
    How does one transport that monster? The logistics must be crazy! Specs? Wingspan? Weight? Scale? Engine size?

      He uses a converted old school bus.

    That is epic! What scale is that?

  • @UKMike2009
    @UKMike2009 Рік тому

    Impressive aircraft and superb pilot skills - the trouble is he makes it look so easy it is a bit, dare I say it, boring lol I wish I could fly as well as that

    How much does something like that cost?!

    Fly it like a real plane, stop bipping/Goosing the throttle

    Такие самолета строят трусы. Сделай чуть больше и летай сам, но нет. Они боятся :)

  • @flygilmore
    @flygilmore Рік тому +1

    Scale is WAAAAAAY OFF! Fuselage shape is terribly wrong and that landing gear is too short!! Turtle deck is all wrong too! If I was paying that much I'd want it right!

  • @sal98
    @sal98 Рік тому

    I wish he flew it more scale like with longer up and down lines. Try to imitate a real Yaks control movements. It dosent have the power of a real 3d machine so why take those kind of chances down low.

    • @EssentialRC
      @EssentialRC  Рік тому

      He's flown it over several seasons so he knows what it can do. He's not trying to fly scale, he's flying to entertain the crowd
