Perfect maiden !

I so appreciate your videos ! Love watching and hearing the old planes.

Love this video of the classic design RC planes

Great video, sadly ruined by ridiculous and irrelevant so-called "music".

Hi Mick, did you build this from the Outerzone plan ?

Splendid! Capital!

Hello! Nice video. What is the name of the biplane model at 6:42? Thanks.

Nicely presented, with the music and the subdued background audio.

My Sterling Mambo would be right at home except for it's electric power.

old timers loved big models…

Great video of some very nice aircraft.

I love the vintage 3 channel high wing planes like you see jn this video that i have been building me aa fee vintage planes from scratch by using plans from a old kit someone sold me on ebay or downlading the plans for free off a site then i import the plans to my computer kf its paper copy and then cut all parts on laser cutter. Out of all the vibtage planes i have built which is 9 already and the research i jave done i cant find any 4 channel planes that was made in the early 50s- early 60s did they just not ise alirons or was the technology in transmitters not there yet to support 4 channels??

Oh the dreaded sound of electric! The airplane is beautiful though!!!

Thanks for posting this video!

Thanks for taking the time to make this great video!!!

excellent video. Thanks!!

Great video thanks for taking the time to make it!!!

So nice to see videos of these great vintage aircraft!!!! Thanks for making these videos!!!

The double Diamond, is a Beautiful aircraft looks really nice. The lack of a nice glow engine is disappointing though.

I'M BUILDING THE SMALLER VERSION, or the Mite, from scratch. Know of any plans for rudder and elevators and electric motor? --Thanks

VERY APPROPRIATE MUSIC. I'M BUILDING THE SMALL VERSION, or the Mite, from scratch. Know of any plans for rudder and elevators and electric motor? --Thanks

Elderly men in dress pants and floppy hats, nice open green field, calm air, graceful relaxed flying and just sitting and talking.

I loved flying my Majestic Major that evening ....was it really 10 + years ago ...time really flies bye, thanks for the memory. Robert Blair

J'aime beaucoup ces modèles anciens. Pas de voltige, l'importance était de voler sans casser. Un grand bravo à toutes ces personnes qui font revivre des machines anciennes . Cordialement ❤❤❤❤

Nice vid mate enjoyed it ,im in the process of building 1 ,having trouble with wing any advise on how you built it as planes are so scetchy

It’s too bad this beautiful video was completely ruined by ridiculous music. Model airplane enthusiast wanna hear the motors run. It always surprises me when people put in music that they think we want to hear.

Mick, what electric motor are you using on your yellow plane? I’m finishing a Buzzard Bombshell about the same size.

I built one of these back in the late 1960's.

That's R/C MODELING AT IT'S BEST REAL BUILDING REAL ENGINEERING. AND TO TOP IT OFF A BEAUTIFUL DAY.👍

it looks like old style power glider ,,ive built smaller ones that look like that ,,look up old rc model plans ,,and youll find it ,unles its scratch and home design

Beautiful great job boys

Maravilloso!!!! Muy ameno,i y los modelos de aviones, bellíimos!!! Muy buena música.

Could have done without the music

EROS - designed in 1948 by John Cosby as a 7 ft span freeflight model Converted to R/C for rudder, elevator and motor control. Weight just over 5 lbs giving a wing loading of 12 ozs/sq ft. Conventional balsa construction and covered in doped polyester faux silk over laminating film which reduces amount of dope needed to seal the faux silk as well as adding to covering strength. Power train is an Emax BL 2820/07 which produces about 350W power from a 3S 3000 lipo cell driving a wooden Zinger 12 X 5 propeller. Take off only needed about 1/2 that power on tarmac. Motor control is a YT ESC rated at 60A. Rx and 2 off 17 gm servos used - accessed through bottom of fuselage. Battery and ESC accessed behind motor under top cowling. Wing halves plugged into carbon rod joiners through the fuselage adding another 4.5 " to span. Carbon fibre undercart cut in two and each half plugged into fuselage - friction fit. Resulting CG came out at 31% from L/Edge

Sorry, Put this on wrong video

❤👍bon vols...

balance point is 5 inches from leading edge

That’s a beauty. Thks for sharing.

Very nice, I have one finished can you advise the CG position that you have used please ? Brian from australia

Very nicely done Mick, in windy conditions, I don't know how you do it!

Well done Mick, another masterpiece, in far from ideal weather conditions!

This is a magnificent beautiful model. Graham is a brilliant builder.
