After extensive taxi trials the model took off perfectly and flew well.
Unfortunately the landing was made difficult by blustery cross-winds. the rest is history...
Feel with Tony the shock!
"I didn't know you knew how to fly a plane!"
"Fly, yes. Land, no!"
Autsch! The pilot is experienced flying single engine planes and landing these with great skill.
In this case the plane he did not construct was very heavy annd it was the first ever twin power model he flew.
The rest is history. Thanks for watching. On my channel ScaleJetFred you seee him performing perfect landings with different planes.
That was heroic nonetheless; may the crew rest in pieces.
Thanks John!

THANKS @Donald Bailey
We will do our best NOT to crash @Redblade
Very nice ,I was not there of course however it seems the approach landing speed was too slow. Rebuilding seems feasible. Thank You sir for your fine we'll done Mitchell.
Nothing but admiration for people who can build models like this. So sorry it went wrong but don’t give up. And I hope it’s flying again soon
Thanks for watching Phil!
I would've gone full throttle and climbed right back up into the sky to avoid that mess, then waited for winds to die down. A lot of money lost.
Yes electronicsNmore - It would be easy if the clock could be turned back to just before the crash...

Greetings from Ireland, Fred
He did apply power and that led to the crash. It did a classic VMC roll because one engine was dead and the other sone producing power. Works exactly the same on models as full size airplanes. Rather than a long explanation, look up "Airplanes VMC"
@@JimForeman I didn't see a dead engine
@@JimForeman not quite. No dead engine, but he was too slow, and the stall-spin was initiated with high AOA, power added with no rudder to counteract p-factor/torque and use of ailerons instead of rudder which caused adverse roll - all contributing factors. But we can armchair quarterback all day - we weren't the ones on the sticks with fractions of seconds to respond at that time....
@@JimForeman What are you talking about
Flaps where used, but I think not extended enough.
But the flying speed because of very low throttle setting combined with variable wind direction stalled the model.
It will be re-build.
Greetings Fred
I'd have to agree with SPIRIT DOT. That approach was unstabilized & out of control. On my Ziroli B-25 I never get below 1/4 throttle until it's just a few inches off the ground. A practice I learned from my full-sized twin-engined flying days. The prop blast over the wings is a definite factor. Also, from the looks of it, I'd say that the right engine came up to power faster than the left engine. Another reason to never cut the power until touchdown. Rarely, do both engines come up on the RPMs equally, especially from idle. Best Wishes.
Low throttle settings are fine, its pitch that determines/controls air speed, not throttle, and speed is your friend, particularly when dealing with cross winds and turbulence.
With all the 2 cents being offered here, your re-build should be a cinch!
Whew, good!
Thank you for giving us a beautiful plane Toni. I loved watching her fly. Look forward to seeing her go again. Mighty fine indeed.

Thank you Fergus, I will tell the builder1 Fred @@fergusmcclelland9833
Always sad to see the crash of a gorgeous model. I'm a former private pilot and ultralight flight instructor and also have built and flown many RC planes (and crashed a few) as well as taught many students to fly RC as well. Sadly, this was strictly pilot error. The erratic final approach off to the side of the runway looked like an out of control roller coaster ride. I was just waiting for the stall during the TOO SLOW frequently nose high approach. Adding power too late and with the nose high and overcontrolling caused the classic stall and crash. Thankfully,the model does look repairable. I hope he rebuilt it and got to fly it successfully.

Thank you for the comment i can not argue with.
Great you found my channel
Looked pitchy like it was a tad tail heavy. Sad to see all those hours of building end up that way. Hope you've had better luck since then.
Why didn't the crew eject? were they ok to be used in another build?
It dis, but so fast you can't see it MrKnowwun! Thanks for watching and:

Good for you. But do not blame it to the boogie.
Much respect, great machines and dedication. I hope you are teaching the next generation how to keep this passion alive 😉
Indeed Mike! on my channel I have lots of videos of Warbirds ond civil Scale planes.
Thanks for the comment
Very sorry to see that. That was some serious porpoising on final. I assume it was not tail heavy. I finished mine this year, same plane in silver, also with G-26's. On my maiden I stalled it just before landing and it came down pretty hard, breaking the nosegear mount. I was lucky it stalled straight ahead and did not drop a wing. I have had 5 flights now and realize you have to come in hot with plenty of power to make up for the huge drag of full flaps. No problem with takeoff or flying around but it is not a slow flier. Landings are the only part that make my knees shake.
Yep it sure was a disappointment - I really should have know better than to come in so slow - got slightly caught with the updraft over our lake at the end of the runway - unfortunately she is not re-build able but with a bit of luck I will start the replacement next year as I have all of the necessary expensive ancillaries.
Glad to hear your's is working out well - happy flying with it for a long time
Thomas Greene - great video... I often times thought of R.C. Flying, but never pursued the hobby. I did buy an R.C. Helicopter, a small beginners version. I had tons of fun with it in my backyard.

Tough to watch but thanks for showing us a wonderful video and the beauty of watching it take off and fly. Hopefully, this was repaired or rebuilt and will fly again someday. Props to all who build these planes, wish I had the time and patience to do this sort of thing. Well, many say building and working on them is the best part? Anyway, sorry for the crash but appreciate the video nonetheless.

How many plastic man lives could have been spared with a bit more training! Plastic man lives matter! Ha ha Ha
or at least make sure that they have not been sniffing glue just before takeoff..
The bit of plastic between the pilot and his seat is NOT excess glue...
They never had a chance.
For those who are not aware or have not experienced it, this is NOT like crashing your ARF. This kind of modeling not only costs thousands of dollars to invest, but hundreds of hours of loving care and detail before you get to fly your beloved creation. Having a couple dozen large models myself, I can attest to the feeling of losing a kit built vs an arf! EVERY builder is also a TEST pilot. Sorry to see that Tony. Hope you can get her fixed. I realize that the damned depth perception was a big factor in your misfortune. I have learned to choose two landmarks, or flag them, so I get that 3rd dimension for flying my approach somewhere close to centerline. One of my fields is lined with logs on either side and we have to stay on the side of the runway..lots of scrap wood to be collected there!!
I'm not that much into RC planes but I can tell you right now that if I was, I would never even fly that thing hahah
+ConvairDart106 exactly the reason I fly foam still...lol..I do not know how bad I'd feel If I just put 10,000 into a beautiful plane and to total it on its first flight...

Thanks for visiting ScaleJetFred. There are 90 vidos about RC planes on this channel. Enjoy
very clever Paul. At least in winter I fly foam planes. Thanks for visiting ScaleJetfred
Turbulence, as with wind, requires a higher power setting. Also, we have to realize that a steeper looking approach under a wind condition is actually the same decent rate as in a calmer wind. Un-nerving, but a good safety factor. Better luck in the future.
Thank you for the info Dennis, I pass it on to the pilot.
Sunpower SPR-X21-350-BLK
Crew didn't have enough time to bail out and was too low to parachute. NTSB reported the pilot forgot to lower his flaps on approach which they said was detrimental to the crash.
The pilot will take it on board during future missions.
You like to see a 205kg B 29 US Bomber demonstrating lots of perfect landings?

Thanks for your visit, Fred
Shoulda put the nose down and throttled up at the first sign of instability. Your airspeed was WAY too low on approach and then, when you cranked it hard left after the right wing dropped, you cut off all flow over that left wing and it dropped like a freaking rock. It was a great flyer though!
INDEED BOBBY! Greetings, Fred@@bobbymcdonald1
I really enjoyed that video, Fred.
Thank you Bobby McDonald@@bobbymcdonald1
my friend thats a full stall,i have the same model with 2.24 m wing,and he need a lot of speed to land.
Giannis Doundoulakis, tough fall, saw it coming with lack of speed and excessive aileron movement, killed me to see it crash, best wishes to you
@@boldlionpro2814 Yup, fly it to the gnd under speed, seems he tried more of a deadstick type of landing compensating with too much aileron movements causing the plane to yaw from side to side until it tip stalled,very beautiful bird though,no doubt!

Sorry to see that happen! What a beautiful build... That was a classic Approach stall complicated by a crosswind. Don't fly it down. Do you have trim ability? Set a shallow rate of decent using power only. Use surface controls for heading only. Practice shallow rates of decent over the runway. Keep the approach speed up! Practice slow flight near stall at altitude. Learn where the stall line is. Same principles, big or small. Crabbing isn't easy.Would be great to see it fly again.

Thanks for the data on the Giant B-29. I am forever fascinated at the engines in these planes. I visited a place in California that manufactures them. WOW! It is called Technopower. Amazing. The gentleman who builds them is quite interesting to talk with. I enjoyed the attention to detail and the finite aspects of these engine and props.
Hi Jay. I am always happy to help-keep watching videos of your liking on my channel.

Should have had some RC ambulances on standby.

hehe cute!
👌👋👍😂😂
THAT would be funny as hell, build one and a small firetruck and just wait in the bushes until theres a crash and then come out with the sirens and flashing lights...lol,lol,lol...
And little ambulance guys for the little pilot and plane crew little guys.
i'm sorry, now all the little pilots and plane staff are in the plastic heaven , and their family did not get the money from the insurance , because tere were no security lights over the plane...and the court decided that the emergency landing was not necessary in that situation .

he should have added power went around and set up a better approach. pretty plane though
Should also have dumped excess fuel to save weight and fire fighting costs.

On my ScaleJetFred channel you see perfect landings on the US B 29 Bomber Giant model. Will I see you here?
Greetings Fred
heart breaking.
pitch + power = performance. looks like a lot of fishing around with the elevator in trying to set a glide. I would figure out the approximate elevator angle for approach speed and use power to adjust for descent rate and angle. This airplane, by the thrid or fourth pitch up porpoise action, ran out of speed and energy.
rallyden
As a former RC pilot I have to agree.
I would just as that since it a scratched built AC, perhaps it was built a bit too heavy with a too high of a wing loading for a scale AC?
It did seem very controllable at high speeds .
+Barb5001 It's also a very flat winged airplane, good for lifting bombs in reality but not inherently stable. I should think it needs land fairly briskly.
Yes I think it looks that way... I'm not that great a pilot but I know that higher loadings need faster landings, so maybe that's what happened here. Sorry to be another armchair expert, but I'm trying to learn from seeing this for when I build my own larger models.

ScaleJetFred: I'm about ready to maiden my Ziroli 101" B25. Where should my CG be with Gear Down? curious, what was the final weight of your B25? Did you ever get it rebuilt?
Hi NRAD 2000! First I was not the builder nor Pilot - I record events!
My friend Tony got the plane built from an other friend who was affright to fly it!
This is Toy's answer to your question:
Tony Greene
Mon, 6 Jul, 12:26 (1 day ago)
to me
To be honest I cannot remember where my C of G was on my ill-fated B25. The plane should have been repaired but I was so mad with myself for messing the landing up that I demolished the remainder in frustration - I know I should have calmed down and waited - the rebuild never looks as bad after a few weeks -So 5 years later and with the Covid lockdown here in Ireland I took the opportunity to build another one and it should be ready for its maiden later this year - so stay tuned for hopefully a more successful maiden. The original B25 weighed in at 35lbs and this one will be a little lighter at 32lbs. I will follow the instructions from Ziroli and have the C of G 5”back from the leading edge , measured at the fuselage, with the gear down.
Good luck with the maiden, and a tip from me, it is essential to keep power on while landing - that was my biggest mistake and I should have known better as that was not my first rodeo - but we all live and learn - so remember keep the power on until touchdown and you will be successful.
Hoping this will hel, let us know please.

Lovely plane - hope you got it rebuilt and flying. Unlucky with the wind - I'm guessing these small models are very sensitive to quite small changes in wind?
No re-built, but a new one based on a different design will fly seen. Fred
Non-stabilized approach, too slow. Should have waived off at the first dip. Better to go around than hit the ground! Just sayin'.
Yes - approach speed at flare was stall speed.
Maintain thy airspeed lest the earth rise up and smite thee.
I see a lot of pilots fly for 20 minutes and land once and they celebrate a landing as though a miracle happened. Most of my flights are at least 50% touch and go practice. Some are 100% touch and go. People should practice landing more. It's the only thing that counts.
It was a shame but it was definitely pilot error. I know. I've been there done that and got the tshirt.
Beautiful model. Hope it gets repaired.
Yeah that about sums it up, unstable App & the driver was just going along for the ride as he lost it well before impact sadly:-(
It did seem clear he was under speed and over correcting. No telling why. I suspect he repaired that plane and did better later.

Greetings from Dublin
IT did not crash. YOU crashed it.
As an avid builder and flyer of RC planes I can feel your pain. Maiden flights are always the toughest. I have a number of heavy warbirds and they almost all require plenty of speed to avoid the tip stall upon landing. I wish you luck in the rebuild process. That plane is worth the effort. It was a beautiful B-25. Good luck from Southern California.
Beautiful job building the model. A lot of love and detail went into the model, enjoyed the video.

The pilot says below in answer to termite's dream [4 years ago] that it was not.
@@ScaleJetFred
Ok cool, but next time put the link right in your comment. Thanks :)
Is telemetry just another gimmick for the data obsessed pilots among us, or can it actually be used for something useful like giving a pilot his airspeed as he's landing? My radio has voice warnings and a headphone jack. Has anyone ever used telemetry in this way and did it help?
PS I'm not implying why this gorgeous plane crashed or anything like that, but if you know your planes stall speed, and your airspeed in real time, may be useful no?
I've experimented with it as I bought the telemetry pack for my Hitec Aurora 9x (most under-rated, great value radio out there!) but it was only of limited use... 1stly, most ppl only receive speed updates from the GPS and the wind isn't taken into account, unless you actually buy the airspeed device. Plus, you have to find the minimum landing speed/stall speed beforehand by trial and error, so unless the model comes with pre-tested data like that, you're not going to know what that is. I found by the time I was experienced enough to set up all that info, I was good enough at landing that model not to need it.
lol only in a re run lol... naw its a nice radio but too expensive. I have all the major brands including the new hitecs but the best radio i've ever owned in 35 years of flying is my taranis x9d. Low cost recievers that NEVEr fail or lose a frame. A radio with almost twice the range of my Aurora as well and for the cost of one aurora reciever I can have 3-5 of equal or better range etc.. not to mention 16 regular channels and 32 if I use the correct recievers. Every channel programmable to whatever I want it to be and the Amber voice pack makes it one darn sexy radio :-)
Just a copy of a high end Futuba!
I've used it and I found the GPS-based speed wasn't particularly useful. For starters it's ground speed not airspeed, unless you have the special sensor, however that's getting much easier to do now. With GPS also it's not instantaneous, it's telling you the speed last time it was measured; some sets will have faster results than others but the one I was using (I forget but I think Futaba_ had too much lag; half a second and you can't really use it for landing as you alter for landing. However, with an ASI instrument that should be better. I have Hitec Aurora 9X and Optima 9 Rx, you can get all that for this gear and the one I saw had quite low latency for other measurements (not GPS but temp, RPM etc.), again it didn't have air speed indicator. So no, don't buy GPS for that, but it's good to work out later what speeds to expect on different parts of the circuit. Where I fly it's easy to lose a model in the trees and scrub and hard to find, and could be VERY helpful there! So long as it keeps transmitting.... if you're logging you could get the last known position. Useful for advanced scale projects sometimes, eg. one guy had expensive radial engine under a scale cowl and thought his heads might be overheating so he bought temp. sensors, found that yes, was a little high, and modified the cowl, until he proved it was fixed.
GPS is useful for teaching you how to more accurately estimate things like altitude and speed by looking at the model, and the response time *should* be good enough for that. It's best if you can mount a screen like a small tablet on your Tx, so you can use the telemetry dashboard for info at a glance, or the voice caller for critical stuff. Logging to external device is very worth it. I've used the Hitec stuff more often and found it actually pretty good, the Tx-screen dashboard was fine really but a tablet would be better. It was great value until the local distributor screwed up the pricing, air speed meter went from $17 to over $65!! And removed all the best package deals. Looks like the Spektrum new series of telemetry gear is becoming popular but I don't own any Spektrum gear so can't comment. Anyway, to answer your question, GPS really isn't much use for what you intend, most importantly because it's only ground speed - if you can fly in near-zero wind conditions then great, otherwise it screws it up. But, with logging, and getting to know local conditions to correct, it could be useful to help you build knowledge of what you're model's doing, then with a voice caller you'd know if that's a safe speed... *IF* you get a real AS instrument too.
Have to say, you can still get the Hitec telem. deals from overseas and they seem like excellent value for the IC engine pack. Certain places sell Tx/Rx/optional servo packs in Australia so much cheaper than even with shipping to US it's an amazing deal, and A9X is massively under rated. With telemetry it's a great system at competitive price. I only have one v. small electric model so I wouldn't bother but the e-pack for elec. models looks pretty good too.
Thank you for your visit
Bravo! That was a beautiful flight with some of the most realistic in-flight footage I have seen. Many of the originals met the same fate as your incredible model. Excellent demonstration and inspirational to watch. May you be proud of your efforts!
Thanks for your comment Rod, I will pass it on to the builder and the pilot!

My brother was killed in this crash. Scary.
You must come from a very large family. Catholic?
falconeaterf15 No, my brother was cloned. That is how my brother can die so many times.
Plastic pilots are very easy to mass produce. Makes sense.

maybe the transmitter wasn't big enough..?
Thank you for watching my video. The pilot lost concentration for a moment

@@ScaleJetFred The pilot was bizi crapping himself ? Such a shame you didn't open the Taps, and "go around". Not that I've ever had a go. Maybe you and your vid. saved me one horrible future experience !
Thanks.
you are not a seasoned rc pilot until you have a gooder like this...heavy birds need a faster landing speed, did you get it fixed up?
Not fixed, but replacemen built. not flown yet Jim
ScaleJetFred nice!
I live in southern California around Santa Barbara and one of the only existing B-26s flies overhead all the time. From in my apartment I can distinguish it’s engine sounds from any other plane.
I visited a Museum in Santa Monica
Thanks for your comment, Fred
Trab Rex, are you referring to a Martin B-26? I'd pay money to catch a ride in that thing. Must be a sight to behold. I envy you! I'm curious what the story on it is. Thanks for mentioning.

Looked too aggressive on the controls, maybe they could be set differently on the slave units. Seems very hard to control smoothly as they are set.

Why would anyone stubbornly continue an approach that is so obviously out of whack in several respects on a maiden flight?! Go around, it's the easiest decision you'll ever make. This kind of thing irritates the nuts out of those of us who lack money but have an abundance of flying skill.

Painful ending but delightful viewing. Watching it pitch and roll gives what I could only imagine it to be, a very realistic troublesome landing that many a real WWII pilot must have faced. Probably not what you intended. I hope you got it to fly again.

I am glad you gave the pilot an excuse Ramaon!!!
Holy crap. I love models. Been building since I was about 10 and now that I'm over 50, I still love models,,,,,BUT this is the reason why I never went to remote control planes. The loss is heartbreaking after the money, time and prep work it takes and once you get to this level,,,,I can't imagine how many planes were destroyed to learn how to land or even fly for that matter. Sorry for the loss and hope it can be rebuilt.
Yes Johnny, Delvisco, itt was terrible for us is well. This plane was not repaired.

Fred to construct a new one , using undamaged parts is well.
Am I the only one that finds these vids satisfying?
Hello The Frase!
Thank you for watching my videos! You are not the only one to do so, but in comparison to some other video's about RC the numbers are small - I am recording and editing these better than marketing the finished product I suppose...
Greetings from Dublin Ireland
Fred
I skipped a bit of the video so apologies if I missed something... but if that was a completely regular maiden flight with no unexpected flight characteristics, why oh why did you force the landing in such a bad situation
The model was unsettled right from the start of the approach and was lopping from side to side something wasn’t right.
Sorry to see such a great model and long build go in lime that .... did it fly again after a rebuild ???
It has been rebuilt BRAVO303!

All that work. Ouch. Beautiful, beautiful craftsmanship. From painful experience, until one finds the stall speed on their pride and joy it is best to power in on the landing. A grass field will help bring down the higher speed.

So its been 4 years did she ever make it back in the air or was it done for? Seems like It was a nasty break on the wings and a split in the belly but could be repaired with the right stuff.
She went as scrap on fire after the engines, RC equipment and retracgts had been saved. Thank you for your concern!

I was wondering about the trim of model aircraft. Being an ex-glider pilot (with very few hours solo), my understanding is rudimentary, but I know that if you get the trim wrong it can be disastrous. Do modellers test out the trim of their aircraft before flying them? Presumably the balance of the weight is forward of the CoG? Was this one tail heavy? (And do models have elevator trim tabs)?

Look at it this way - had you not broken it, you'd have always been fretting about getting it smashed. This way you can go back to the labour of love in the rebuild and you have this nice video in the meantime and thousands of armchair pilots to call on. I loved the engine noise, sounded quite authentic.

Let it strengthen you and keep up the work. It's rather cosmic for me to see someone flying a model of a plane that serviced our country in WWII, where my father served in north Africa.

I built a 90 inch B 25 over period of 2 years, same scale as the wind tunnels test plane, loss it the first flight also. My father made the landing gear for me, so I keep whats left to remember his efforts. Had fun researching the B 25 , including seeing the original drawing and test flight reports at the Air Force Library in Dayton Ohio. My B 25 paint was from an fuel refinery air raid over Japan, shown to me by a C 47 pilot from WW 2.
Very interesting Lowell! Thanks for watching! This B25 was too heavy. Radio, Motors and U/C gear survived.

the flying of these planes is awe-inspiring. My dad bought a P51 for me when i was a tot. It was the Cox motor variety with a hand grip and string. The only time we got the motor going he crashed it while flying it in a circle.up and down, up and down, up and crash. I was sad that day, and again after watching this.
I am sorry about your Mustang. My first plane was powered by a COX motor!
So this video is from 2014. What's the update
ScaleJetFred? Are you still flying this? Beautiful plane!
Hi Paul, firstly thank you for watching! This plane was not rebuilt. However, the builder constructed a new one but never flew it (yet?). The usable mostly expensive parts of the crashed B 25 are waiting to be used for the new one from the Ziroli plan using

Fabulous build and she looked great in the air. Sorry for the loss of your lovely model. It’s always a bummer to have a mishap on a maiden test flight. I recognised a few voices on that video. What motors where in her zenoa 22? Loved the paint job. Fair does you built her and she flew, mine is still upstairs frozen in time waiting to be skinned in glass cloth.

Great job building and flying. Too bad on the landing. I too was thinking go around for another attempt. looked like a difficult landing strip, approach blocked with bushes and trees forcing a rapid decent. Hope you rebuilt and tried again.
