This video is a year in the making - local Marymoor R/C Club members Bryan, Hailin, and Ian came up with the idea of making an extremely light for its size C-133 based aircraft after visiting Oshkosh in 2019. Soon thereafter, their newspaper build plans turned into a full on massive project, and almost a year to the day after starting it, she took to the skies for the first time.
Congratulations to all of you with an awesome build and incredible flying airplane. Build 'em light!
Stay tuned for a 45ish minute podcast style build log video from Ian and Hailin.

Congrats!.. looks like an awesome build.
I suddenly want to build an R/C Douglas C-133 so badly right now!
I love the old dude's commentary, as well in RC Airliners videos. That birds a beast. Nice vid.
We love ol Bryan
Fantastic job! Congratulations to all of you. Now for one you can sit in.
That is so awesome! Tell Bryan Hi from Max and Moritz. He was a big part in setting them up in aviation, both are doing great in the USAF!
Nice video! Good drone coverage. That model flies really well for a large aircraft. Exceptional slow flight characteristics! The builder(s) nailed the C of G! Good stuff!
The secret sauce? Build it light!
@@RedDevilSquadron Quite true!
Impressive build and awesome landings! Like how you guys modulate throttle to setup for ideal flare. Mavic chase is sweet, too! Great video to share joy of RC hobby!
Just an excellent modeling skills and using other materials that can suffice for strength at those areas that are needed but, realizing weight savings at the same time!
Congrats!
Very well done. Even the video presentation was incredible.
really really nice build guys! it looks awesome in the air! Well done!!!
It's a mashup of a Torpedo and a C-130
Well done fellas! Well done!
Yesss! Love the vid!
👏👏👏 incredible, perfect flight👍👍
I love this so much!!!
Pretty cool.
gotta stick a gopro inside the cargo bay and open up the door in flight!
Wonderful! Marked "US Air Force" but is that a Royal Air Force roundel? Hmmmmmm
Nope! US WWI markings
@@RedDevilSquadron Thanks, I didn't know that. First built in 1956 with WWI US roundels? Hmmmmmmm again. ;-)
This wasn’t meant to be a scale replica. It’s a for fun build based roughly on the look of a C-133. Not meant to be from any specific date or replicate any exact airplane
Wow she's a big....bird 😂
👏
100% budder landings
