My father was the navigator/bombadier on the 17's in WW2. He was the most decorated navigator in the Italian theater. He passed away almost 3 years ago at 96 years old and all of us kids knew nothing of his war record till he passed.
These guys are great!!!! I'm an ignorant American, I don't know much about accents... Which is this? Love it!!!! Even this American can get and enjoy the dry humor.
Well done!!! You did it!! You landed the plane like a B-17 pilot, from WWII! That is how it is done! I always get a kick out of watching you guys. You look like you are having so much fun. 😀 wjm
As a huge fan of the 8th USAAF and the B-17, this video made me extremely happy. I salute you, your flying, the model and the bomber boys who flew the real aircraft and to those that gave their lives for our freedom. Never forget.
Just found your test flight channel and cant stop watching, you both have inspired me to build and fly ,keep up the good work , and the entertainment Chris.
Robert never ceases to suprise me...he always flies such beautiful planes that one can only dream about....love his passion towards RC products👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
A very nice plane and an awesome maiden flight, and a successful landing. I recon you have enjoyed many flights since. You got an awesome deal for that aircraft as well. Thank you for the video! Please have an excellent and awesome day! 🙂
You guys crack me up! Nice flying and the commentary is hilarious! My uncle flew one with the 8th airforce during WWII. Beautiful plane. Great job and good day!
Your outright love of RC flight is infectious! So is your humor! Love the videos. Keep them coming. The camera work, flying and most important, flying conditions were all outstanding! You live in a beautiful area of the world and sharing your passion for flying is a very nice way to see the world! Salute! Carl the cgul
Really a great flight. Now it is plain to see why the smooth runway you use now is so much better for the small to medium wheels, especially on a heavy model. I hope to see it fly again now that maybe 2 years have passed. It is a beauty!
I got to see this fine B-17 at a air show in Jacksonville Arkansas a few years ago. You know it crash landed not too long ago safely but burned up on the ground a few minutes later. I get a kick out of you guys liking this RC kit. Thank you for sharing.
Hi Brothers, I just found this video today. Looks to be a nice plane. Seeing it reminded that we lost our local B-17 of at least the past 30 years, about two months ago. It was named " Texas Raiders ". No more will it pass overhead. Nor will the P-63 that cut it in half. I hope that your planes do not crash. " Hey! "
AMIGOS, CAPITAN ROBERT Y CAPITAN BLAZ, DESDE COLOMBIA RECIBAN UN GRAN ABRAZO, QUIERO FELICITARLOS POR SU CANAL Y SUS VIDEOS, SON INCREIBLES Y CREO QUE LO QUE MAS ME GUSTA VER ES EL ENTUSIASMO QUE USTEDES PONEN EN CADA UNO DE SUS VUELOS.
What a presence in the air! I salute you for this successful flight. I would have never guessed that this thing ends up in the air after seeing the starting difficulties.
Hey James. Its Slovenian humor ;) Thanks for kind words. We really love planes and we want to show to the world how beautiful this hobby is. But in a little different way. The fun way and with a lot of babbling ;) Greetings from Slovenia, Robert
I just now found this video guys, from 2017, no matter it so sweet nice plane clean looking. The B-17 my favorite war bird bomber thanks to you guys again again for sharing. ..Capt. Robert awesome landing and Capt. Blaz, you videoed so well it looked like the real plane on landing...it really did..
Oh yeah Chuck. I also love this plane. And I got it for a very good money. Its second hand but amazing. And I wolud really love to see this bird in real someday. We can only dream about that in my country... Cheers my friend, robert
Hahahah LMAO!! 4:26 "Where they found a zippo lighter still on after 70 years" Uncle Albert OFAH 3:45 - the story begins:D You guys are the best, keep it on! Cheers
This was a GREAT video. There was a point where you were making a climbing right turn with the sunset to the rear, where the sun was glinting off of the fuselage and the back of the rotating props. It looked so scale !! You guys make me want to go out a buy every plane you fly. You have sooo much fun. Thank you for these great vids. I'm loving it !! Blue sky's ...
When they are nose heavy, give it up elevator Robert. It is a beautiful plane. Some of the Warbirds, the CG is close to the wheels which make them nose heavy or tip forward on take off and landings. Just give them up elevator and ease off as it takes off and lands. What a great flight Robert and as always great camera work from Capt. Blaz! Love your video's and humor! Also, beautiful country!
Like you said Rick. The problem was the holes on our runway. But now that we have fixed our runway maybe its time to see this baby in the air once more. I really love this plane and it is such a good flyer... Cheers my friend, Robert
You guy's are totally amazing Robert, My Brothers and i sure enjoy watching you guy's make total fun of this sport, as avid modelers we tend to forget how much fun this sport really is, Thank you and Captain Blush very much for re-igniting the fun in model airplane flying and building.... It would be so much fun to be there in person on the same flying field with you too brothers....
Beautifully flown. The reason they quit painting them green, the green paint weighed 300 pounds. That meant 300 more pounds of fuel and it made them slightly faster without the paint. My dad built them under contract to Boeing, at Lockheed Burbank, California. along with P-38s.
Hahaha omg you guys are a killer! One day when i come to Slovenia we will have pivo and maybe some rakia and the laughter will flow! But not while flying a plane! That bird looks so beautiful in the air. Salute prijatelji.
That was so awesome, such an amazing aircraft with a lot of history, my great uncle, Wilbur Richardson was a belly turret gunner on a B-17 during WW2. The stories he had told us are priceless, thank you and keep up the good work......
A great video and a fabulous plane. I have one and yet to maiden. Having seen this video it has given me the need to get mine in the air. Thanks for your great channel👍👍👍
I have watched this video many times,as it is still one of my favorites from you guys!! You are flying a very nice looking warbird and you and Blaz are having a fun time doing it!!
This video made my day. The interaction of Cpt. Blaz and Robert, amazing !!! I have also a B-17 from HK in my garage (not build until now) and I plan to pimp it a lttle bit (Freewing main retracts, FMS Me-109 for the rear retract and some Crew dummies). Thx for the inspiration !!! Greetings from upper austria ! Rudi
Is this Rudi from RCGorups? Hello from Slovenia. I just came from Mullneren. We will work there. And this bird is really fantastic. But very very difficult to take off from grass airfield. I have now installed the Master Airscrew propellers and I will test them soon. To see if there is any difference. And I also have an idea for helping the bird at take off. Cant wait to test this. So thanks for stopping by Rudi and Cheers to Austria from Kostanjevica na Krki, Robert
Thanks my friend for such kind words. We just want to show this great hobby in a little different way. The fun way. Oh yeah. And like you said this bird is really amazing.
My father was the navigator/bombadier on the 17's in WW2. He was the most decorated navigator in the Italian theater. He passed away almost 3 years ago at 96 years old and all of us kids knew nothing of his war record till he passed.

You guy's are totally amazing Robert, My Brothers and i sure enjoy watching you guy's make total fun of this sport, as avid modelers we tend to forget how much fun this sport really is, Thank you and Captain Blush very much for re-igniting the fun in model airplane flying and building.... It would be so much fun to be there in person on the same flying field with you too brothers....
Thanks my friend for such kind words. If you visit Slovenia you are welcome to come on our runway and we will have fun together. Oh yeah.
Wow, what a cool plane!! Loved that slow flying at the end, and the slow landing, just soo cool.
Hey Brad. This is really a bird to buy. Like you said it looks so good in the air. And its such a joy to fly it. Cheers, Robert
I got a ride in a B17 ( Aluminum Overcast ) a couple of years ago. Best airplane ride ever. You guys do an awesome job, love your channel.
Beautifully flown. The reason they quit painting them green, the green paint weighed 300 pounds. That meant 300 more pounds of fuel and it made them slightly faster without the paint. My dad built them under contract to Boeing, at Lockheed Burbank, California. along with P-38s.

Captain Bloc you together fly it perfectly! It is really big, the fortress!
That was so awesome, such an amazing aircraft with a lot of history, my great uncle, Wilbur Richardson was a belly turret gunner on a B-17 during WW2. The stories he had told us are priceless, thank you and keep up the good work......
Info about plane 8/10. Interesting facts about history 8/10. Random zooming in 8/10. Funny bickering with each other 10/10.
Wow. This is so amazing. You 2 were well entertaining. I going to buy myself a b17 from HobbyKing.
CG looks perfect. Great flight and landing!
