      Rear seat pilot position in two place trainers is a USA tradition, but may not be in in other countries. The Chinese Nanchang trainer locates the pilot in front, with the student/passenger in rear.

    • @blackbirdpie217

      @@loboheeler It's not really because of tradition but a need for balance. Nanchang is a very different design. If you look at it you see the pilot's seat is located slightly ahead of the CG and the student would be likely a little behind. This will change the trim some, and might be annoying for sure but the airplane has a low aspect ratio wing and a long coupling, so this is not a huge problem, but I'm sure not ideal. The Stearman, being a design of the 1930s is totally different. The short coupled design reduces CG tolerance and the airplane will be properly balanced assuming there's a pilot on board, who is always behind the CG. The huge radial up front is more than enough counter balance and the student sits up front, right on top of the CG, a brilliantly placed position causing little or no change in trim. In other words the plane handles the same whether it has a student on board or not. The Nanchang will have to be trimmed somewhat differently but is a much larger and longer plane. I don't know why the Chinese decided to put the pilot in front, it seems the student should have as much view as possible and would have a better experience in front, and like the Stearman would not change the trim if the student is on board or not.

      It would not take more time and money.. I did myself the same thought but this are two different ways to make aviation. Some pro jet pilots flying on best machines choose to spend all their free time and money on rc models, really ! Some other fly paraglider, etc..
      About the big model scaled it get you closer to the real thing while you can still dream without too much stress.
      But with such abilities my personal choice would go to ultralight flying, build it and fly inside it :)
      Some people build 17th century vessels, spending years, not even putting it on water, and they dream maybe more than other who hardly find time and money to sail a cruise sailboat which requires many security elements, tons of fixing, lot of trouble...
      After all it's mostly about beeing happy... (I would choose a dinghy+a three masts model... and a trike ultralight+ several rc model gliders, from very slow to very fast).
      But right now we both are on UA-cam... ;)
      Also some people fall in love with one precise plane, this one although beeing a trainer may be very expensive and difficult as it is historical and quite heavy / powerful... so here this is like an artistic work, it is real in a way :-)

    • @TheRealWALLABI
      @TheRealWALLABI 4 роки тому +1

      There is a extraordinarily huge rift between building a giant RC plane and a full scale homebuilt aircraft that you intend to fly in. RC planes very rarely require any certifications in order to fly legally and usually don't have to comply with typical regulations imposed on homebuilt planes. Actual full scale homebuilt planes are a completely different story, you have to comply with lots and lots of safety regulations and you probably have to get it certified, too. In most countries, you will also need a formal pilot's licence to be allowed to operate one, whereas it's usually not needed for an RC plane, though it depends on the country.
      I guess if you're in the US, you could get away with building an ultralight and fly it yourself easily as those have very few regulations, but in most other countries (this video seems to be from Europe), you'll need lots of permits and certificates if you intend to fly anything you built yourself. Building and flying a huge RC plane is thus incredibly easier and less stressful, costly and time-consuming than building the real thing.

Maybe some ECT’s (shock treatments) to make him forget about it!!!! I have a 92” WS custom build Air Tractor 502B. It’s 16 lbs. and if that crashed, I’d be in tears and laying in the ground!!!! Then, I’d pick up the pieces and go home and probably order another one!!!! Hahahahaha!!!!

    Very impressive, aside from the glaring error of the pilot soloing in the front seat. I've owned two full scale (i.e. man carrying) biplanes that were smaller than this "model"... and probably cost less. Though it frightens me a bit too, something that massive as an R/C, I've flown R/C for many years and know well how often things go wrong.

    • @ModellpilotEU
      @ModellpilotEU  4 роки тому

      Nothing goes wrong, don't worry. i am a man carring glider pilot with nearby 2.000 hours in my flightbook and be a model pilot over 45 years. These kind of model get a pilot with a ppl or special flight licence for bigscale models with theory and practice like a little persoanl pilot licence and the model get an official proof like a experimental man carring aircraft from LBA-Germany with aerolastic proof.
      Heavy sandsacks are put on the wings for positive and negativ g-force simulation and before it could start the first time a technical and electronical proof with the story in the boardbook. These models are models and the new ruels for UAV/UAS certified class are shure.

      @@lobsterman5786 nah you couldn't and this wouldn't carry you even if you're a midget. It may be 67 % of the size of the real Stearman, but it's not 67 % of the weight, it's far, far lighter. A full scale Stearman weighs almost 900 kg (2,000 lbs), whereas this model certainly weighs around 150 kg (330 lbs). Add another 50 kg (110 lbs) to it and it probably won't even take off. RC planes, no matter their size, are designed to be as light as possible as they're usually made of light plywood, glass fiber and other such very light materials. They don't need all the structural reinforcements a full-scale plane would need to carry a person and it allows them to get away with using a much smaller engine. The full-scale Stearman had a 220-hp engine, I'm pretty sure doesn't make over 50 hp. Size isn't everything ;)

      @Fred Flintstone , This is not a yardstick, it is a model. Yes, you need a special pilot license for this type of model under 150 kg, and the model receives a special improvement and official aviation decrease in stability from aviation experts. So it is safe and it will not crash in a house and if it has to fly over miles without control to reach a village. But it will come down without control. Do not think things like this, sometimes it will come true in the physical world.

    • @TheRealWALLABI
      @TheRealWALLABI 4 роки тому

      There is a extraordinarily huge rift between building a giant RC plane and a full scale homebuilt aircraft that you intend to fly in. RC planes very rarely require any certifications in order to fly legally and usually don't have to comply with typical regulations imposed on homebuilt planes. Actual full scale homebuilt planes are a completely different story, you have to comply with lots and lots of safety regulations and you probably have to get it certified, too. In most countries, you will also need a formal pilot's licence to be allowed to operate one, whereas it's usually not needed for an RC plane, though it depends on the country.
      I guess if you're in the US, you could get away with building an ultralight and fly it yourself rather easily as those have very few regulations there, but in most other countries (this video seems to be from Europe), you'll need lots of permits and certificates if you intend to fly anything you built yourself. Building and flying a huge RC plane is thus incredibly easier and less stressful, costly and time-consuming than building the real thing.
      Also, people do whatever they please with their own money, not your prerogative to tell them how to spend it.

      A very small man perhaps, or a dog. Despite being 67 % of the size of the full scale one, this plane certainly doesn't weigh 67 % of the weight of a full scale Stearman. The full scale Stearman weighs almost 900 kg. I'm sure this weighs around 150 kg only. RC planes are designed to be as light as possible. They don't need all the structural reinforcements that a full scale plane would need in order to safely carry a person. Being light also allows them to use smaller engines. The full scale Stearman had a 220-hp engine, though I'm pretty sure the engine powering this 67 % replica doesn't make over 50 hp, perhaps even less. If you added the weight of a small person (about 40 kg) to that plane, even if you somehow managed to balance is well enough so that it could theoretically fly, it probably wouldn't even take off because it'd be lacking power.

If all you are interested in doing is radio control flight, then build a 1:10 scale and have fun.
      You still have to address the fact that your "model" aircraft is big enough to do serious damage, injure or kill someone, if you lose control of it.. I am going to recommend that the FAA look into putting strict limits on the size and speed of radio controlled aircraft. for public safety. Your hobby is getting out of control.
