I can watch this stuff for hours.. don’t know what it is but I love this stuff
It’s relaxing.
While I've been aware of CO2 power for some decades, until today I'd never heard one. Thanks for educating me.
Always a pleasure to watch these. Keep them coming
Free flight is awesome and has the best modelers, in my opinion, where weight and trim are paramount.
Old boys and their toys, very enjoyable, thanks. Used to fly RC park flyers in the gym in winter time when I couldn’t fly fullscale gliders.
Your Cocquette is fabulous 👍.
Great clip Chris. 👍
Lovely; thank you for putting this together and sharing.
Love the Flitzer!
I have formed the opinion that as a model, the biplane does not offer the same advantages it did to a full scale aircraft. The extra lift of the 2 wings is negated by the extra drag of them and their struts. Believe it is because if the renolds number principal, that the model is flying in a thinner air at the molecular level. There is less lift available but the drag coefficient is still there. Notice the biplanes fly faster and glide less. Fly a model triplane, dr1, and you find it has a worse glide rate than a biplane. Lots of drag
As an RC biplane enthusiast, the minimum wing chord is around 4 inches for Reynolds number to be effective. I've read other statements to that say the same.
@@M5guitar1 in layman's terms this is the reason the tail surfaces of your model are larger in proportion to the rest of the airplane compared to full size aircraft. This is obvious even down to small .049 size models. Reynolds numbers is the reason scale models are harder to fly and the reason they make semi scale models where are they have made larger tail surfaces. The relative to size thing I don't get that. The smaller the size the worse the effect
@@M5guitar1I wish to follow Reinolds nombers.Althought when a jet engine with a fan is small is not as good when is bigger...Same situation in a matter of Efiecency

What about weight? I should imagine biplanes are heavier than monoplanes. And account for biplanes travelling faster.
Superb !!!
Free flight is to me the ultimate aeromodeling skill. I've built flying models since I was 10 including rubber free flight, control line and RC from small to giant scale; old guy now. The smaller they are the more difficult they are.
That Blackburn Dart was really more into practicing its carrier landings rather than flying around!
wonderfull, congrats from chile
I can’t wait til he’s finished the “Peace Maker.”😆
You guys are really good at this model airplane stuff .
Trinity Flyers (except the Viking...)
Does it actually fly? For all we know, it might as well be a Revell model with electric motors.
It has had a short flight outside but the hall here was a bit too small for it. It's built for the UK Indoor Nationals which are next weekend so look out for a flying video of it then
Lovely aircraft.
But what about the Viking? Does it fly?
Yes it does, its built for the UK Indoor Nationals which are this coming weekend I'll try to get some it flying
Tight turns required but nice ceiling hight.
Very pleasant times when I built mini planes
what did you cover the model with ?
qual a escala desse modelo?
3:15 if that bomber looking plane could fly it would be really sick
Check this video at 9'05" taken one week later ua-cam.com/video/6yKTJ3YQX2o/v-deo.html
Bv 222 Viking
Why no other try Boieng 737 C MAX with the biggest duo engine nacele in the World?
How do those work - as they're not RC? :0)
The models are carefully trimmed to fly in circle using a combination of rudder, aileron (often just wing warps) and thrust line so they stay within the confines of the hall. It can be tricky to get right but very rewarding when you do
@@squirrelnet28 Thanks! Love the biplanes! :0)
Lurker Industries?
Yes a prominent Aircraft manufacturer based in Southern England, have you not heard of them?
Что дедуля, молодость вспомнил, свастику любимую теперь уже можно, да?
The German pronunciation is just the same as the English. A 'w' in German is pronounced 'v'.
And a 'V' is pronounced as 'F', as in the war criminal Verner fon Brrown (Werner von Braun).
