    More than half a century ago, when I was in high school, we had a "science" assembly in the gym that was conducted by a former science teacher from our school. Maybe it was NSA or NASA or something (we had a lot of these things in Maryland in the 1960s), I can't recall. Well the "finale" of his demonstration show was a ram jet that he had mounted to a stand. He gave his patter and then he set off that jet and it went on for about 10 seconds. I think my ears bled. It was the loudest noise (in a gym, no less) that I have ever heard in my life before or since. After the screaming had died down, we walked out of the gym VERY quietly. I passed my principal on my way out. He had a look of fire and brimstone on his face. Needless to say, former science teacher was never invited back.

    Vaguely terrifying, genuinely hypnotic demonstration of pulse jet technology on a stress resistant airframe. Full scale tests of the pulse jets on Junkers aircraft very nearly ripped off the wings. The pilots themselves watched as the sheet metal began “rippling” on the dive bomber tested airframe when the pulse jets got to the proper ignition speed. Certainly disconcerting, to say the least!

      Almost never happened: only a few where built, even less flew, and the very few that did go up met a 15 to 1 ratio of P51's and the likes. I have not found reports of HE162's doing ground attacks. They were meant to shoot down B17's and B24's in such numbers that the allies would reconsider fighting on against Germany. In march 1945 that is. It's in the historybooks now that that failed.

    And to think Hanna Reitsch actually had a cockpit installed in a V1 so she could figure out its problems - this superb 162 model made me think of that moment in history. (Appalling politics, but a fantastic flyer).
    I wondered how you would get a pulse jet fired up without an incoming stream of air. I suspected you'd be using a blower, but not one at each end of the unit.
    Brilliant piloting skills and glided landing. 10/10

    And THAT is HOW IT IS DONE! KUDOs, GENTLEMEN!! Absolutely FANTASTICE! Excellent workmanship, precise engineering, remarkable flight exhibition!! Captured 100% of my attention all the way through the flight! The original Messerschmitt Me 328 was a prototype pulsejet-powered fighter aircraft designed and produced by Messerschmitt AG. It was initially designated as the P1073 in 1941, supposedly a "parasite aircraft" that would protect Luftwaffe bomber formations from Allied fighter aircraft and was mostly build of wood. An extendible skid sufficed for landing gear and the ME 328 was never put into production. All of that said...I"M HAPPY to see that our RC fraternity FINALLY did something with it!!!!! YAY!!!

    WOW! That is impressive! Fantastic to see it flying so fast with that pulse jet engine too. What is the scale speed of that plane as shown? (does it exceed the speed of the real original full size aircraft?).
    As I was watching it fly by fast, or off into a climb or roll or coming back towards the camera, I imagined how difficult it would be for a gunner on a bomber to try to track or anticipate (and hit) it with a .50 caliber machine gun. The jet was so fast!
    Also, congratulations to the builder/pilot for making such a great scale model, and flying it with such skill and speed. Bravo!
    Even the takeoff was impressive, and a gliding landing too. Bravo!
    Google search found this for the HE-162: The specification stipulated various performance requirements, including a maximum weight of 2,000 kg (4,400 lb), a maximum speed of 750 km/h (470 mph) at sea level, an operational endurance at least a half hour, while the takeoff distance was to be no greater than 500 m (1,640 ft).

    I took some classes in aerodynamics and aircraft design back in the late 80s and one of the interesting things that was presented was an analysis of the He-162 and it was stated that it was a very good designed airframe, aerodynamics and ease of flying. With a different engine instead of a pulse jet, like a small turbine like we have today it would make a great sport plane

I hear people complaining that most cars are starting to look the same but if the designer is trying to achieve higher fuel mileage they have to do the most efficient aerodynamics and our universe follows set physics they all have to follow so all the designs are going to be similar.
      At the subsonic airspeed and rear mounted engines with a canon in the nose your going to get very similar design requirements in the HE-162 & the A-10
