    There is a magical quality in letting a model aircraft fly itself without human intervention or modern technology. I am mesmerised by the flying videos, my father would have absolutely loved your channel had he lived to see it, RIP Dad. 😢🙏♥️🌈🇬🇧

    Unforgettable! And she's picked up beautifully from where she left off, by the looks. Thank you Tom! 🌟👍

      Doesn’t take long with a cordless drill that runs at 1500-2000 rpm.

    Beautiful!
    I did RC for 35 years, but your models and videos bring back the magic I felt as a young boy when my adventure into the wild blue yonder began.
    Thanks for posting such mesmerizing content!

      I spent years flying RC gliders, after rubber powered free flight as a kid. Your model makes me want to go back to my roots.

    Such a great model, gracefully done and a great flyer . Deserves to go in the air more frequently where it belongs.

    RC scale builder for almost 40 years now but this is the essence of it all. Mesmerizing is the correct word, breathtaking in it's purity...

    Been going to free flight meets for about 70 years and never heard music In the clouds beyond perhaps in a poetic sense. a commentary on your impressions and adjustments might add to presentation. Very nice model though. Are the props right and left handed?

    Pretty little thing and a graceful flier. It's nice to see this rendition still doing what she does best considering the ignominious fate of the prototypes.

    wow!! flying as true as, looks like the air was as still as, too.............. also: is the rubber at least two years old, or newly replaced for this flight ??

    • @maxfliart
      @maxfliart  3 місяці тому

      Thx. I enjoyed seeing her float. Yes, it was the same rubber that was left in it from 2 years prior. It might have had 2-3 full power winds on it, so I was glad they both made it up to this number of turns at least. Time to replace them.

    Motor vibration wastes energy. Stopping the motor at a noninteger division will repress the vibration. Experiment with making harmonics on a violin string to see the principle.

    Of all the planes you ever built, OK- BOB is my favorite.
