- First two flights are at the end (starting about 10min30sec). Been a long 5 years building this plane, but it was all worth while as well as it flies!! Here is a Late afternoon flight a few months later: • Beautiful evening flig...
Five years of work, truly a labor of love. That Stuka looks amazing!
I'm not a modeller myself but I can appreciate the jaw dropping level of commitment to such a project. Well done!
Not only he knows how to build it, in every detail. He also knows how to fly it. 2 very different skills. Very impressive.
Yes, unusual combination of skills indeed!
Simply amazing! The best looking WW2 plane in my opinions. I loved the ME-109 as well but the wing design of the Stuka is just immaculate!
From one builder/flyer to another... hands down you're at the top of the class ! An amazing display of discipline and talent, both in the build and the flying ! Definitely of the best that I have seen. Congrats!!
Bro, imagine if he could add the Jericho trumpets. That would be so cool!
I call the trumpets “Stuka Blyats”
Santa Julia is the real name, after Spanish Civil War 1938.
Imagine if he added an airsoft gun disguised as the 37mm bordkanone
*REEEEEEEEE* plane explodes due to shrapnel
How are they trumpets if they are wooden propellers with a fizzle hole though? Plus I wasn’t able to find an original blueprint of it only photo’s so I don’t know how these people could achieve such goal
Absolutely beautiful build brother. You are a very talented person. Thanks for sharing
I’m glad he added the true to life insignias...the swastika and not some generic design.
We can't deny history.
@@hariszark7396 but this model does not resemble historical Ju87 at all, so it has nothing to do with history, this model is not Stuka 87 anymore, the shapes of wings and bow are not at all
@@jaxmax5563 when you make something like that, based on a true historical airplane in this case, you want to make it as close to real as you can. He may have not make it 100% identical but it doesn't matter. His effort was to build that aircraft from that nation and era in history. You may think this as an experimental model that never made it to the Luftwaffe's airfields....☺️
@@jaxmax5563 Maybe you can scratch build a better one?
@@tjs0004 He at least sees that this models looks nothing like the Stuka, so maybe he could actually build a better one.
I didn't see a bomb drop on the underbelly...perhaps you could add one and drop it on the knuckleheads who gave your video a thumbs down! I really enjoyed it! Even buying models that you build with plans out of a box is a mostly lost art today. 5 years and from scratch...that's an accomplishment! Well done!
On the real Stuka's the bomb was mounted on a trapeze like arrangement that swung it clear of the arc of the propeller before releasing it as the plane was nearly perfectly vertical during a dive.
I also believe that on the left fixed gear the siren was placed
i believe that he could fit airsoft mg"s in there too... that would be awesome
Brilliant build! The large scale makes it fly like a full size aircraft, much more realistic, top man!
Great build sir and you are the best pilot I've ever seen, smooth and scale speed too. Congratulations! I love the way your whole family was with you.
Wow! The wing loading looks perfect. This airplane fly's beautifully. Congratulations!!! Your very hard work has payed off.
Very impressive from start to finish ... you have a lot to be proud of.
Brilliant. How far we've come since my own feeble R/C efforts in the early 1950's. Wonderful.
Pat.....I don't like to throw this statement around or use it lightly but your a FREAKIN GENIUS....by far the most amazing and time consuming process that I've ever seen and it worked beautifully...my
hats off to you.....a maizing....nuff said
From one Brit to an American Cousin, SIMPLY STUNNING! Well done.....
What a beautiful model,,and the electric inbuilt starter, Great flying too, well done.
Wow! Five years! You got the aerodynamics perfect. It flies like a dream!
Wow! Beautiful build and the flying sure looked real to me. The take offs and landings looked so real. Bravo!
That was an epic film...beautifully detailed model and the first flight...amazing!
I loved the fact that you are honest about your tryouts and revisions. A journey taken is worth as much as arriving! I hope your son recognises that he has an awesome Dad! Best wishes - Rick in London
FANTASTIC JOB!!!!! My favorite aircraft Patrick!
Older video, but it does bring back memories when I was building and flying RC. I even got to the point of teaching others to fly RC via the typical buddy-box system. So I know how much time, effort and work it takes to make such aircraft. And I can also understand the absolute "pucker" factor on your first, second and sequential flights with that build. I was holding my breathe on the first landing, but you did it very smoothly and life-like. Bravo sir, Bravo!
Brilliant! I was in awe and then...”the tool man”. Love it!
Simply amazing. Beautiful, detailed, inspired...and it FLYS!
I scratchbuild small RC planes out of cheap foamboard, and maiden flights still scare the puddin' out of me. I can't imagine flying something like your Stuka for the first time. Amazing! What a great build.
Great work! A really good result from the build and silky-smooth flying skills - very well shown with the nice landings! Well done!
What brilliant craftsmanship. Beautiful. My great grandmother saw the real things come screaching down on her in Greece during early phase of WW 2.
Masterful craftsman, building skills, imagination, and flying. Thanks for sharing the journey … loved every second. Kudos from one builder/modeler/flyer to another.
Outstanding! Beautiful scale model and looks to be perfectly balanced. Congratulations.
Beautiful work, absolutely beautiful. I was literally praying all would be ok on that first flight. Great video, and no shitty music. Please make more videos. You are awesome sir, a true master craftsman.
I echo the other's comments: What a build! What dedication! What tenacity! There wouldn't be 20 out of a 100 that would have even attempted this project, let along complete it. My hat is definitely off to you. Note: I built 3 Experimental Amateur Build airplanes - flew the last one for 13 years. Your build was definitely more difficult than mine. You, sir, are a fabricator. I know the hard work and dedication that goes in to these projects, be they full scale or less. You had the guts to take it all on and to realize a beautiful outcome. By the way, those wheel landings were superb. Difficult to do with any size airplane - takes finesse' which you have. Many thanks for letting us see this wonderful project.
Beautiful build..... Great job..... She look's gorgeous!!!!!!!
Just wow on every count, design, build, problem solving , flying and an incredible landing 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Great job. Dad and I used to build 'em. Your son adores you man. Enjoy that.
Well done. I was into rc aircraft in my earlier years and careers got in the way and now I'm back in it and I to am building a stuka.i love the look of it.ill refer to yours when I need to.again well done sir
Amazing work, beautiful flight! Can’t wait to see the fully completed aircraft!
Fabulous model and love the build pics. I dabbled in these many years ago, but never got to this level. I had a habit of converting all my RC models back to kit form and every crash took part of my soul. I cannot imagine how bad I would feel if I crashed this one after all those years of work.
inspirational to see reward from a long passionate journey..... thanks Patrick
Much respect and many thanks for the upload. I was particularly impressed by the superb maiden flight landing. Looking forward to future flights here on YT.
Absolutely awesome. My favourite of all the WW11 planes. Stunning
Skills my friend....you have them in abundance! Thank you for showing us your passion.
Your first landing was so slick, couldn't have been better! Beautiful plane, love me some Stukas. Well done!
That was awesome, what an AWESOME plane! Thank you!
"A critic is a product of creativity not his own!" You 'da Man!
Sweet takeoff and landing. That's a nice looking bird you built. Thanks for sharing.
I'm lost for words! Just brilliant. It gave me great pleasure watching it fly and the very process of building the plane.
Respect and greetings from Russia.
absolutely fantastic, what patience you must have! what skill too. nice to see the darker side of aircraft, everyone has spits n mustangs etc but see a stuka thats so rare!I would love to have your model!!!
Labour of love! I am sure you added the wheel pants, a spinner and Jericho's trumpet later. Bravo!
Very very impressive and She looks Great.
Big patience and an awesome reward. Good job.
Amazing work. You are a mixture of engineer, mechanic and artist. Beautiful giant Stuka.
Epitome of RC modelling!!! Metal canopy frame, electric starter, etc,? Hans-Ulrich Rudel would have been proud of you!!! OUTSTANDING!
Absolutely Stunning Man! Fantastic work on the aircraft and both flights shown were perfect. I would have been very nervous on that maiden flight, but her balance and trim looked spot on. Great piloting and landings 😎👍
What an absolute delight to see a scale r/c model aircraft flown at something like scale speed. Well done. Oh yes and the build was exceptional too! Good luck with it. Regards
Astonishing video Patrick. All my hats are off to you. Good flying...
What a wonderful achievement! Stuka was an iconic plane and you recreated it. Well done 😊😊
Excellent Builder,Great aircraft,Awesome Flying..Congrats!
Beautiful! And the most realistic R/C (1st) takeoff and landing I've ever seen!
Wow! I mean WOW! That’s all I’ve got. 🤷🏻♂️ Beautiful build!!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Just stumbled across this , mind blowing engineering crossed with artistry, amazing work.
fantastic air plane .credit to your building skills .
Great job!!! Beautiful mode,. Best of luck.
excellent Patrick skill and perfection,and a good pilot and you got it all,good luck!!!
Fascinating... fantastic craftsmanship. Congratulations and thanks for sharing. But 5 years!!!! Incredible dedication.
Gorgeous Stuka my friend! I've been flying about ten years and can't wait to have the opportunity (time/shop space) to build a large scale warbird! I'm sure that was a tense but rewarding maiden flight! Wishing you many more!
Great project. Fantastic craftsmanship. Congratulations!
That was one of the most scale take offs and landings I have ever seen on a maiden voyage. Beautiful warbird and great skills.
WOW. Such a great build. My grandfather flew this plane during the war I can only imagine the what it would have been like to feel the sensation of an almost vertical dive.
Freaking beautiful! Well done!!!!
Such Attention to detail.
What a Beautiful Plane, he’s ended up with!!
Far out man that was an epic journey, way way kool!!!
*cool
Awesome build, and love those Tim Allen clips.
Electric start, very impressive.
Beautiful work and a tribute to you to stick with such a venture and complete it so successfully, right up to the first flight and might I add - your buttery smooth first landing! Congratulations and thank you all the way from Sydney, Aust - Dave
Absolutely incredible job!!!! The diving siren and a go cam in it would be really cool!!!!!
Add a siren and dive that sucker! Love the authentic scale and paint including the swatchita on the tail. Great job!
Amazing how smooth that plane is!! 👍🏻
i agree michael i have a zirolli stuka and i think he has made the nose to long possibly to conceal that zdz motor a fantastic build though, got to give the man a pat on the back
HI R/C FREND BEEN R/C BUILDING FROM PLANS AND DESIGNING FOR 40 ODD YEARS . AND FULL TIME FLYING.
SO NICE TO SEE THAT THERE ARE SOME REAL BUIDERS AND FLYER STILL OUT THERE. I APPRECIATE WHAT YOU HAVE ACHIEVED.
NOT LIKE SOME OF TODAY'S FLYERS ON LINE CREDIT CARD OUT OF A BOX TODAY AND FLY TOMORROW.
WELL DONE LOVE IT R/C FREND.
Beautiful work. Lovely looking model.
The craftsmanship is first class. Excellent!
5 years! But finally the work is worth. Congratulations, great airplane.
One of the best T/O's and Landings I've seen on YT.
Not only is he a good designer and builder, he's also a brilliant pilot. Kudos!
What a beautiful job! Love the electric starter! Like another person said, this needs a siren for dive bombing. Thanks for the video.
Awesome build and flight! Thanks for posting.
Attention to detail and workmanship paid off. SO very true to scale. Looked graceful on the ground as well as in the air. Great job on the build, and the flying. The maiden must have been a knee knocker for sure.
That's quite impressive! Congratulations!!!
Put some miniguns on it and shoot down DRONES ! LOL. Absolutely awesome build !!! I've always considered them such a beautiful aircraft .
Beautiful job building that beast..💪💪
Spectacular flying and a hats off to you for greasing your maiden voyage landing.. perfect..
Wow! You blew my mind! To build that from scratch. Liked the Tool man lol! Great landings, you were born with an an amazing gift. Learning to fly and I ain't got wings! Amazing job!
Very WELL DONE. EXCELLENT JOB, GOOD FLYING and LANDING TOO! SMOOTH ALL THE WAY.
One thing you did that so many others don't do was to keep the weight on the heavy side (more to scale) with enough horses. Makes for stable flight in wind. I like the way you strengthened and over built everything from the wings to the landing gear. The swastika was used as a symbol of good luck by many European countries before Hitler forever changed it to mean hatred and domination.
I'd be quacking in my boots during the maiden flight after all that work! Nice job!
That is just Amazing !!...I salute you !...That is one mind blowing project !! 😀👍
Das Good Quality Build und Kraftsmanship Pretty Good Pilot Too. Your ready to join the Luftwaffe. Prost!
Mr. Joe Le Bianco, my first control line was also Stuka in 1961 or so. Yeah I enjoyed flying that plane with a Cox 049. I also agree that the the builder of the plane on the video is a great craft man. Those naysayers may have never built a scratch built plane and are not familiar with the amount of work and dedication involved. For past 40 years all of my planes have been scratch built and I LOVE it. Keep up the good work Patrick, thumbs up.
_Congrats. Nice built and successful maiden with brilliant landings !!!_ *THUMBS UP*_
WOW...Just WOW! Thanks for posting.
