@@Warbirdpilot Yes, once you've made contact with the ground you want to kill that extra lift. I've even added a crow mix for warbirds that have a tendency to nose over once on the ground rolling.
i have bought an 88 inch pica spitfire 21lbs with an underpowered Zenoah 38cc motor just to specially to learn how to land it...grew up with a Sopwith pup (Puppiteer) but am really a Heli 3d guy and a carbon glider guy but no expert as i am an old man just an obsessive flier....loved all the landings in this video but i just cannot take to the final approach technique where most of them when close to the stall give some up elevator and hoping it sinks which provides feedback on ground speed and where it is around a possible stalled wing..... i am hoping i can get mine to fly slowly enough on flaps with marginally increased tick over to put it down straight pushing gently forward on the elevator gently shutting down to tick over..... Perhaps i am simply delusional and do not live in the real world. beautiful video and just what the warbird guys need....so cool
I’m curious, on the P-47 do they duct the exhaust out the bottom of the cowl flaps behind the motor mounts or do the duct it through the fuselage like the wartime aircraft with the superchargers did.
The P47 at the beginning looks like it could fly on a fart, nice and slow! So who is going to clean up the runway after these guys gone and made it all greasy:) ?
Realising childhood dreams.Taking model aircrafting to another level.
Some lovely models and some good landings - nice to see the Spitfire landings improve during the video - the first one was scary!
Thanks, yes it was a new model for the owner and he got more used to it after a few landings..he is a very good pilot
Nice selection of aircraft and the slo- no feature was good. That B 17 pilot/controller was smooth!
Thank you for the kind words 🙂
Man I enjoy these so much! I can't resist rating them in my head...had some 10's in there!
Me too, can watch landings all day..
@@Warbirdpilot YES
Nice compilation 👌🏼 👍🏼
Thanks buddy
@@Warbirdpilot you're welcome 😊
I think the landing is the most beautiful moment of the flight
As do I 👍👍
Another great video! Thanks for sharing these gorgeous planes in action!
Thank you 👍
Very nice. Old Crow at the end used a good habit. Once your gear touches down on landing, raise your flaps.
Yes, I do the same, helps with nosing over .. just stay away from the gear switch though 🤪😁👍

Great Presentation.
Thanks

Thanks, practice makes perfect, good luck on your spitty, beautiful airplanes..

Usually they duct them straight out the bottom of the cowl, like mine here.
@@Warbirdpilot I guess heat would probably be an issue for whatever electrical components you have in the fuselage
@@Hbomb-nm2fv yes and the engine perform better with short exhaust, these radials have a ring muffler usually

Good one 🤣
Great video could do without the slow motion parts maybe
Thanks 👍👍
What type of engines?
All kinds of engines, most are gas powered.
Not really understanding why some of these guys keep trying to land warbirds with the nose up
👏👏👏👌👌👌👍👍👍😊😊😊😷😷😷🇹🇭
👍👍🙂🙂👍👍👍👍👍🤪👌👌👌
P51 Old Crow showed how it should be done, runway behind you is wasted real estate
Poor technique Speed on final too high Amateurish flying
Ouch, you a rc pilot sir? ☝️
