And ofcourse to all of you that come here, have fun with us, leave comment subscribe and give thumb up.
The German Me-163 Komet was the worlds first and only rocket-powered fighter. Designed as a rapid response interceptor to combat the US daylight bombing raids, the Komet was years ahead of anything the allies possessed with speeds upwards of 600mph and an incredible rate of climb. The Komet's volatile rocket system accelerated the Me-163 to an altitude of 39,000ft in just minutes from which it then only had 3 minutes of fuel left to attack its targets with its deadly 30mm canons. Once out of fuel it became a glider and very vulnerable to fighter attack when returning to base for landing. Although it can be considered a failure in operational terms, the Me-163 has gone down in history as a truly legendary aircraft of WW2 thanks to its ground breaking design and blistering rocket performance.
The Durafly Me-163 is in itself a truly a ground breaking model. Not only does this Komet feature a fully working scale 'dolly' style undercarriage, blistering performance and a high-quality finish, but it is designed out of the box to accept a model rocket engine! In its Plug and Fly (PnF) form, Durafly's 950mm (37.5") span Me-163 comes with all electronics pre-installed and ready to hook up to your choice of 6ch receiver. A minimal part count allows assembly to be completed in just a few steps. The molded EPO has a highly detailed surface finish externally, carbon reinforcement internally and features a color matched hard plastic belly skid. It also has good access to all electronics via the battery/canopy hatch, excellent cooling through out and of course a very authentic looking scheme. Quality is definitely the name of the game.
Designed for pilots with some experience, Me-163 benefits from incredible flight performance and stability throughout the speed range. Full power climb outs, virtually unlimited vertical, huge loops, blistering rolls and very fast passes are easily had at full throttle. Slow the Me-163 down and she's just as stable and has no hint of a stall. Using the recommended 2200mAh 30-65C 3S lipo and supplied 6x4 prop, you can expect flight times well beyond 6 minutes and with excellent performance throughout. If you are looking for a lighter set-up, the Durafly Komet is equally happy on a 1300mah 3s, especially at lower speeds. But if you want a bit more punch then a 1300~2200mAh 4S 30C+ lipo can be used with the standard Komet setup.
For those of you looking for the ultimate scale experience, the optional rocket system is a simple drop-in affair (see manual for details), and will give you a thrill like no other. The working dolly-drop is activated at the flick of a switch on your transmitter, allowing for the most scale of take-offs.
Durafly have taken EPO scale models to the next-level with the Komet, and have put you firmly in the pilot seat with the new red Me-163.
Features:
• Fully functional dolly style undercarriage (now with a wider wheelbase)
• Ready made for drop in optional rocket motor system
• High level of pre-assembly and minimal part count
• Tough EPO construction with extensive carbon reinforcement
• Super smooth surface finish
• Stable and high performing aerodynamic design
• Large canopy/battery hatch for easy access to electronics
• Authentic and re-applied decals and paint finish
• Standard setup will run 3S and 4S lipo batteries

Thanks my friend for such kind words and for all support. You can always come here to have fun with us and to feel like at home. Big salute to you from Slovenia.
Pilot Robert,Doctor Robert and now we can call you Design Engineer Robert!! You pulled this one off very well Robert! I wasn't sure what to expect,but with the Perfect G-Spot the Twin ME/Petrencic 163 Komet performed very well!! A bit faster flying due to higher wing loading,but it flies like it's on rails! The best part of all of this is how happy it made you,that was awesome! Captain Blaz,you did another fine job in zooming the shit out of it!! Congrats on 8K,that is also awesome!! Cheers to you guys and to Capt.David!!
6:24 - The best of the internet i've seen for ages. Awesome guys. I was right there with you. When it drifted left and dipped on takeoff i was expecting the worse but OMG it flies! Brilliant!
OMG the 3 planes stayed in perfect formation together. It could have got nasty if the tail plane and the 2 other planes decided to separate hey. What a gifted Pilot you are Robert. A big salute for you.
Thanks my friend for such kind words and for all support. This flight was really great and I was feeling so good when I landed.
That was a real pleasure to watch. It’s wonderful to see a real enthusiast succeed. Regards Russell
Thanks Russell for such kind words. I was really so happy that the plane flies amazing and its so easy to handle.
Pilot Robert that was AWESOME!!!!! Using the sky sword parts was a stroke of genius. Also the plane just looks cool. I salute you.
With any new plane there is always butterflies in the stomach! Especially when the plane is a beauty and you do not want to ruin that.
You said that very good. Iam not scared to do maidens but I do care and I really dont want to crash any plane. But crashes do happen and that is the fact here.
Now what to say about dis ......... You have pleasured not only yourself but the entire world. A famous G spot, perfect Engineering, a great take off , flight, and landing plus the best zooming ever. You should be as proud of yourself as we are of you. Thanks for the memories . Russ
Hell yes, great Slovenian engineering!! That baby flys great!!! LOVE IT!!! You should call these birds, "The Petrincic", you rock Pliot Robert! Your friend Darko would be PROUD!
You guys are crazy/nuts in a really funny way. Btw, great idea with the twin comet with elevator !
Thanks my friend. We just have to try everything. And this baby is really great idea and it flies perfect.
This was the best maiden flight ever to work and build the most beautiful and incredibly exciting plane and experience that you've accomplished successful flight time and the flight was perfect Captain Robert and Captain Blaz.
Just getting home from work and ran upstairs to computer to see the 2X Komet. I was screaming at computer with excitement!!! Way To Go!!!
Congratulations "Test Pilot Robert", I never had a doubt in your plane's aerodynamics. You should send this video to the HR department at Boeing as your resume! Well done! -Waingro
Thanks my friend for such kind words. Iam just so happy that it worked so good.
Wow!!! Very impressive, not only a pilot but apparently a damn good designer also. If that was an actual fighter plane back in the day, I believe a lot of people would have pissed their pants seeing that coming at them.
Thanks my friend for such kind words. Iam really happy with this plane becouse it flies perfect and it such a joy to fly it.
This is such an accomplishment! Such a sexy plane on her maiden and of course the perfect landing:) A huge salute to you my friend 👨✈️
Thanks my friend. I was really so happy that the plane survived and it is in fact amazing flyer and so easy to handle in the air. Big salute to you my friend from Slovenia.
THUNDERBIRD 6
It looks like something from a 60's science fiction show. Absolutely awesome and fantastic save on take off. I thought it was a goner for a moment. This is brilliant, it flies so great and even sounds great. It is an inspiration for all with broken foamies. Congratulations with this superb maiden 🙂🙂🙂🙂
Well done G Spot Master Pilot Robert and cameraman Capt Blaz. Such a wonderful thing to see your joy at this successful maiden flight. I thought it was a crazy idea to put two Komets together but she flies better than a single one and I was smiling with you as she cut through the sky. Very well done and carry on with your great enthusiasm for our wonderful hobby.
Best wishes to you both from London 😊🍻👍👍👏👏
And “Hell yeah the twin Komet not just fly but fly like hell. ! “ You nailed it pilot Robert your a good pilot and designer. Well done. Prosit
What the hell-a! Another great video from the Wright Brothers of Slovenia. This channel is more than just RC planes, it’s a philosophy of life. Thanks!

That was AMAZING pilot ROBERT WELLDONE! WELLDONE!
Pilot Robert, I had Frank my Hungarian friend watch as well and we both loved it... well done..

OH YEAH!! I was so pleased that your creation flew, and flew well. Well done Pilot Robert, you deserve a promotion!!!
Thanks my friend for such kind words. But I must tell you that I really love to be simple Pilot Robert.
Pilot Robert this is Myke from the RCAAA group on Facebook..
That was absolutely amazing my friend!!! Salute and congrats on an awesome model you designed, she's flys like a dream!!!
Oh yeah!!! Very best congratulations to you Robert. You are remarkable. While the rest of us sit around with our fingers in our asses, you are creating amazing one of a kind planes. And proving they fly as well as they look. And also using salvaged parts from crashed planes. You both bring us wonderful reviews and great entertainment. Nice seeing Captain Dobby too. I salute all three of you. And your wives, for sharing your passion, too.
Thanks my friend. I was just kidding about asses ;-) Or maybe not. I really love to watch good full of life review videos. We cant have this hobby booring. Thanks for all support and big salute from Slovenia.
Oh yeahhhhhhh!!! This plane is an awesome flying sexy bird. Robert, you've put together a great RC airplane and
someone should pick this plane and produce it for the public!! Salute to Pilot Robert and Captain Blaz!
that is passion .... !!! I can see the joy in your eyes. I wish you many more such moments my friend. Cheers Captain Dani
Pilot Robert! Incredible! Your Twin Comet Creation flies superbly! They seriously should produce this model, name it after you and pay you for the design. Like your other subscribers have said, I just love your passion for this hobby...it's infectious...so nice to have found people like you to share this with. Ultimate salutes from Minnesota, USA! OH YEAH!
Thanks my friend. I really think that this idea is perfect and they would sell a few birds like this becouse it really flies much more easier then single Komet. I love it. Big salute to you in Minnesote from Slovenia. Oh yeah.
Perfect flight,perfect landing shot perfectly by Captain Blaz. Congradulations on your twin engine Komet,I do think you are for sure to gspot master and you are geting so good at the landing in 6 months your just going to landing the birds in the back of your van so you wont have to load them up haha,what a special thing you have gave to us Im going to watch it again haha.!!!!!CONRATULATIONS!!!!
That is really impressive. Ball is in your court Durafly. It just looks right, and having the props close together is a good thing for a twin-engine aircraft. Which other RC channel gives you all this? None. Now I will cut this comment off quickly. *Salute from australian pilots, subscribers and viewers*
Thanks my friend for such kind words and for all support. Big salute to you and all friends from Australia.
Freaking awesome! That plane flew like it was on rails! Well done, nicely built, beautifully flown! I found this to be one of your best planes ever, it looks awesome in the air and it just flies like it's on lightning. Looking forward to your next hybrid project.
Fantastic! The smile on your face after the landing was priceless! Well done.
I was really so happy my friend that the baby survived. Its just amazing.
Congratulations on the maiden of your self made plane. Great show, Salute!
Thanks my friend. We had such a good time with this baby.
Awesome flight and camera work as always. Excellent work on the build pilot Robert. Thanks for your video keep flying you guys. Just having fun RC'n. Have a blessed day for you and your family. The same for Capt.Blaz and family. Cheers from U.S. in Tennessee, THANKS you guys.
Wow, that was fantastic pilot Robert. Congrats on the build and a perfect maiden. Doesn’t get any better. That truly is one of a kind.
This gives me the idea of conjoining two B-17’s together as one, that would be such a sight. Awesome plane you have made I love it 💙
That would be something my friend. And I know it can be done. If you will make one keep me posted my friend.
I love your guys enthusiasm. Don't ever change.
Thanks my friend. And dont worry at least when we are filming we can really be ourselves. We just love this hobby so much and as soon as the camera is ON the party starts here ;-) Big salute to you from Slovenia.
OMG, you're such a character and quite entertaining! The two of you! Congrats on your maiden! A fantastic and successful mashup of the Sky Sword and Me-163 done properly! Looking forward to that ''other twin project'' you mentioned. And good job on the landing - you greased it in!! Cheers from Montreal
Had to laugh at 1:49 as Capt Robert tells us he won't talk too much!
But Robert, that's why so many of us come to see your vids.
The babbling!
Great maiden of your latest creation Cpt Robert. The Komet Sword flies REALLY well!
Well for me to say that I will be quick is the joke of the year ;-) But I really love to babble infront of the camera so much and this bird is really amazing. I love it.
This TWIN ME163 komet rocket fighter ME163 ROCKS!! Great great job. Congratulations.🥇Thank you very much for another fantastic video.
It really does my friend. And wait for the next generation. That will really be something to remember.
"You're so shaking gay Robert" :D Woow! what a great maiden boys! Congrats! Greetings from Czechia! Fly or Die!!!
I liked it the first time I saw it, but now I have seen it in the air I LOVE IT !!!
it is just beautiful in the sky !!!
So great that it flies so well !!!
Fantastic 1st flight of the "Petrincic Komet" :D ...... Thought it was gonna go in at the take off, but hey, Robert, with your cat like reactions you saved it! The plane looks brilliant, flies very well, and should really be in production. Great babbling as usual guys, brought a big smile to my face. Keep it up! :D
Thanks my friend for such kind words and for all support. This was really something for my soul. Big salute to you from Slovenia.
robert buddy i have to tell you that this made me so happy for you because i knew how important it is to you.just know that it also is very important us viewers.this makes my whole day bud
My god! This is the best mash up plane video ever!! That is the best built mashup ever. I'm absolutely dumbfounded. Robert this was just fantastic! Seriously I'm I'm just astounded.
Oops I asked about performance before finishing the video. You answered my question in the video
Your excitement is contagious
Pilot Robert you need to do more experimental plane designs, you’re a natural! Awesome video!! Congratulations on the maiden flight!!!
Twin ME 163 Cpt. Robert Edition.
Thanks for building, reviewing
and all the true words and good
vibrations.
From Long Island NY. We love it! Great video!
Thanks my friend and big salute to Long Island from Slovenia.
That was fantastic Robert. I have never seen you so excited, but I think this is your best plane and your best video yet! You are truly the monster plane G-spot Master and I could feel your excitement in flying that plane from half way around the world. I did see that it tried to roll to the left when you took off but you handled it perfectly. I still believe that if you will reverse the right side motor direction before you next flight that it will takeoff and fly even better. Wow, that was a great flying day in Slovenia yeah !! 🇸🇮
This was a great success. If you actually have the twin-tail P-51 Mustang, you must fly it now. Quickly, before the snow!
Hey that worked out pretty well! Big salute from America!
Thanks my friend. I still cant believe how good flyer this plane is and so easy to handle in the air. I love it.
A great achievement Rob and good camera work from Blaž.
I'm looking forward to your next video.
Keep up the good work boys👍👍👍
This reminds me of a toy clockwork tin plane! You wind the key and watch it go round in circles on the kitchen floor hahaha just perfect. Thank you.👍
You Guys are ambassadors of this awesome hobby and RC aircraft ....
Congratulations to the G Spot Master ... Pilot Robert ! Very innovative project that turned out wildly successful ! Watching your videos definitely provides the viewing pleasure to your audience hey ! Cheers ! 🍻
I think i speek for everyone that fallows you guys.that this is why you guys are unique and special thats trully amazing and best rc videos on youtube.this is real passion thank you both for the joy you give us.
I loved the detachable landing gear!!! That was great flying and super camera work!
CONGRATULATIONS Pilot Robert on the maiden flight of your custom Messerschmidt Komet 163 - Now the new Komet 263 ! You almost bombed Captain Blaž with the wheels !!!
Thanks my friend for such kind words. And like you said the wheels almoust crashed my car ;-)
Best RC channel in zee whole World ! Ohhh Yeahh !
Everything about it was just perfect Pilot Robert "PERFECT" loved it.
Thanks my friend. I love it too and I cant wait for the second flight.
Amazing !
The Durafly komet is a good , but challenging plane to fly , you very cleverly have created a stable , good flying twin.
Please , FIRE TWIN ROCKETS! And show us, cheers you guys rock!
Wow! Impressive!!
Great flying, and the best is your happiness, feeling all that!! Truly nice and touching...
Wow...
Master pilot Robert, "dis is it" . As a bonus you had a perfect landing!
Thanks my friend. And for once the landing was really great. Big salute to you from Slovenia.
it looks great too! love the high stabilizer.
nice flying machine. You guys are not amateurs; total pros!
Wow what a plane!! I have one of the comets, I don't fly it anymore, it crash's nearly every time I fly it! I gave up on it, but how impressive is the twin!!! very good plane and Very good vid well done Robert! great filming too!! Captain B
NOW I'm thinking an elevator on the single may help stabilise it too!!! well done Fella's
This was the most exiting I have seen for a while. And it ended happily too, thanks!
The perfect G spot on this crazy plane. What an entertaining and hugely successful maiden flight! Well done boys, thumbs up! 👍👍
Thanks my friend. Its really amazing how good flyer this baby is and I didnt have to trim anything. Perfect. All the best to you Bob and big salute from Slovenia.
It lives!!!! Great job on the Franken plane pilot Robert oh yeah!!!
Great job!! I don't know about you, but for me almost nothing is better than when my own scratch builds fly good with out crashing!! -:)
Outstanding build and photography! Horizon Hobby and Full Motion RC have some competition now. :)
Absolutely love your passion!
Thanks my friend. Somethimes I think that Iam really sick for planes. But I cant help mayself. I really love them.
Congratulations for such a wonderful maiden flight! Amazing idea to join two Komets together…..you are in the Genius League now!
Pilot Robert is no more an amatour pilot and slowly but surely is becoming a pro-pilot…..
Salute from the Land of Pizza!
Hey, Dis is it! Captain Robert, You done it. It's fantastic.
I really enjoyed that flight. It flies perfectly, very nice design you made!! It even lands nicely
Amazing job Robert, combining the two Durafly Komet and bits from a Sky Sword. Well done mate. Luv your passion. Cheers from Au.
your enthusiasm is wonderful!that's what the hobby is all about.great work guys
A thing of beauty! Salute to Petrincic Brothera Aviation.
Thanks my friend and big salute back to you from Slovenia.
You are so right sir, have fun and be happy.
That take-off was quite dramatic. 65% roll from horizontal? _hard to tell as at max angle it unsurprisingly wasn't quite in frame_ I thought it was going in. After that it seemed to fly great and is definitely a memorable sight. Well done
No you’ve done it! I have to go out buy three planes and crash one of them to make this plane....crazy mad plane. Love it well done!
Have been waiting to see this fly and I must say, WOW!!!! it's been worth the wait. Salute hey Pilot Robert, your creation flies so smooth and looks great in the sky. Big Thumbs Up hey!!!
Thanks my friend. Its really amazing how easy it is to handle in the air and for its looks perfect in the air. I love it.
