Boeing 747 RC model First Flight

[@a_daz]

This is the most iconic video in my life

[@SouthwestRefuseVehiclesIreland]

I remember watching this as a kid

[@ap3xTX]

I remember watching this as a kid.

[@RCHeliJet]

Das waren noch Zeiten :)

[@solomonshv]

did you guys make sure that the PanAm 747 RC plane had cleared the runway before take off? i'm going straight to hell for that joke

[@DowntownCanon]

Pretty sure the Pan Am plane was over Lockerbie by the time this one took off.

[@SixtyeightWhiskey1]

You and me both. I was going to write it, but you beat me to that one. :)

[@kristianolsson4209]

[@selcuksaglam2320]

This

[@kissklassics]

There's no fog in the area so it was good to go.

[@P61guy61]

Amazing achievement for 1994. All the jerks making derogatory remarks have no idea what it takes to scratch build and fly a model like that. Keeping all four glow fueled ducted fans was a miracle in itself. Thanks for sharing.

[@holliewinters3272]

I'm left speechless! Amazing!

[@RCHeliJet]

Love that Video :)

[@astardustparade]

Beautiful! My most favorite aircraft in the world! The queen of the skies!

[@merledixon7824]

When they were taxiing it onto the runway, I half expected a Pan-Am jet to collide with it.

[@maxbouchard2241]

You mean it collide with a pan am jet

[@poppabear9279]

Thank god their wasn't a Pan Am 747 on the runway with this KLM Boeing 747... we'd have had a small scale Tenerife happen all over again.. nobody would have gotten off the ground that day :/

[@70MarYa]

That would be scary

[@solomonshv]

i made that joke on here like a year before you did. lol

[@MrTruth111]

I think he stole that joke

[@heybooboo757]

As a Former Pratt & Whitney Experimental Test Division employee, I'll give You guys a 9.9 for both effort and style. It kind of freaked Me out when I first looked at the picture of the Giant behind the Luxury Liner, ho-ho. Great Job Fellas, She's a beauty. Art T.

[@AsknotwhatUcan]

With that much money spend on this plane, you'd think they could find a better camera.

[@SimranWasu]

This was filmed in 1994

[@GleeS04]

Learn to read the comments before touching the keyboard. So quick to throw an opinion without facts make you look like a fool.

[@Diamondusa7]

ASBH Please don't teach the ignorant, let them be.

[@mrgangelino]

Diamondusa7 that is dangerous too.

[@ABEE-nl4ru]

complaining about the camera... he trusted his investment to a A.M. radio system.... but guessing asknotwhatucan wasn't born yet-lol

[@wolfe1970]

Shame they cant scale the sound, it sound like a lawn mower on steroids

[@johnbaart1537]

I think cause they are electric motors...........jp

[@Twin_Flyer]

John Baart the description states the builder used four nitro engines.

[@johnbaart1537]

Bill Skoros See that now..course ducted fan may be quieter than prop jobs..hard to duplicate small engine to giant engine sound....jp

[@wolfe1970]

Rajeev Sahu can you ?

[@wolfe1970]

Rajeev Sahu Ahhh sorry, my bad lol

[@nenblom]

Quickest takeoff I have ever seen a B747 make!! COOL!! I know what I want for Christmas!

[@EASYTIGER10]

Are you sure you got permission for that take off at 1:00? You could have ended up hitting a PanAm jumbo trying to get off the runway..

[@ostric8768]

had to think for a bit but thats hilarious ;)

[@Gravitolion]

Lol, as soon as I saw that blue KLM 747 I instantly thought the same thing lol

[@fkerpants]

Oliver Coughlan I scrolled down to make the same comment, but of course I got beaten to it. Sad story.

[@himself187]

I thought I'd be the first to say that, hey Easytiger could you edit you post so that it can look like its me who asked

[@modex20]

plane crash jokes are the worst jokes

[@IndecentConversation]

that was a stupid way to land it

[@peterrafeiner9461]

It's not as easy (especially on a first flight) as you may think. Try it ! :-)

[@IndecentConversation]

I do fly RC planes, but I could tell he didn't have anything sorted. too high, too fast, too far.

[@kindforlife_gt8174]

You are more stupid

[@dykov6]

Oh, really? Smart comment... Try it before say that

[@kindforlife_gt8174]

Hello who have play clash of clan

[@TheTimeCapturer]

Very nice! The landing needs a bit of practice but at least it didn't crash. It blows my mind how a real-life jumbo jet, weighing several thousand tons, can actually get off the ground. Great work on the model guys. :)

[@jr53709]

Landing was horrid

[@garydunn3037]

What I have just seen is amazing, the plane is credit to those involved in its construction. Thanks for posting the clip.

[@Oceana57]

Wondrous. I found myself holding my breath watching this.

[@Pogosports]

I give so much respect to whoever can fly that thing.

[@666777GG]

That is impressive, they could use that for movies. Whatever mini engines they used really make the project.

[@Jerbod2]

I love how real that looks in the air!

[@Adventurescot]

Fantastic and well done to the guys who built it!! I build large miniature steam locos and I often worry what they will perform like on their first fire up run but a plane like that 747 must be a nerve pounding job!! At least my trains cannot fall out the sky;-) Great job to all concerned!!

[@isthynamewart]

That was great.My nephew and I flew an R/C plane years ago, nothing on this scale though. It crashed many times. Hats off to you. All the best and Merry Christmas.

[@Baby1961-i5e]

That was just insanely cool. That is some amazing engineering. Well done and thanks for sharing!

[@YTnew2012]

I loved how they let their inner kid out around 2:20. Very cool vid.

[@Blaze0357]

Damn! My feet came off the floor watching that landing. Not to say it was a bad landing, It was just scary cause all the time and work that beautiful model took to build. If I'ed built it.. I would be to damn afraid to fly her. Hats Off!

[@cpp1]

This is stupid awesome. It's huge and sounds almost EXACTLY like the real 747 airplane.

[@rockybudgeboa]

This is adorable. My daughter would love one like that

[@thefireman285]

Mostly the larger size carries insurance and safety concerns by several governing entities, so proof of financial liability is required. This flight looks like it was performed at a functioning airstrip(because of the size) in Europe, although not an large heavy aircraft one, some sort of permission and traffic concerns were obtained. In the states most RC flyers stay low enough, even in city areas to avoid any airspace concerns.

[@gregrudman8168]

Landing needs some work but still far better than I could ever do! Amazing plane!

[@youtubersmusicchannel3998]

I have never seen a big airplane like this. Congratulations from ''KZbinrs Music Channel''.

[@1972Cathy]

Amazing. My father would have loved this!

[@mikesmith5375]

If I was in a Cessna and saw this airplane I would think it was a real plane until scaled to something. Very nice model and flying!

[@scottiedog1965]

This is freaking amazing and to think it was done 20 years ago!!

[@kaidosbuddyagaindoberman9119]

Way too cool. Obviously something one can't buy, I wish. Very cool

[@R00RAL]

geez, almost abort that landing, but great stuff, I got a smile out of it :)

[@LT89NL]

Depends on the country and/or locality you're in, and the type of plane or helicopter you'll be flying. For example, in the Netherlands, aircraft powered by petrol & other fuel engines need to be flown in specially designated areas and require licenses because of Schiphol airport, which is located pretty centrally in the country and is the main air hub for Europe. In many other, larger countries, like France, Germany and Spain, the regulations are generally less strict.

[@gahloot]

Wow they had these in 1994? Amazing!

[@jorgeperalta6113]

*KLM Flight 6156* *Date: July 25th 1976* *Aircraft: Boeing 747-243* *0:58** Take Off From Amsterdam, Netherlands* *1:56** Weird Landing From Bogota, Colombia during the Heavy Rain* *Fatalities: Nothing* *Survivors: 325* *Cause of: Bogota was hit hard by the Heavy Rain*

[@ILOVEMINORSSSS]

thank you for flying ryanair Airlines

[@gomachan10000]

Real B747 so beautiful💖　I love this video😍

[@Clearsky1945]

This 747 is not the only plane built by Wilfried. He also built a fabulous 'Kiebitz', a real plane (PH 3W2). And I'm not exaggerating when I say that Wilfried would be an ace in wartime! On You Tube you can see his masterpieces: BOEING 747 RC & Kiebitz & eurostar. Unfortunately the grass was too high for his 747.

[@freeqwerqwer]

Only thru KZbin could I have see such incredible thing like a 747 rc jet. The landing was wobbly, I'd say. Maybe because of the weight?

[@dfw3355]

impressive......i occassionally see 747 at my local airport..dfw. Your plane is just as impressive to me.....best wishes.........

[@Rampage434]

Damn, that was friggin awesome!!

[@fifedog30]

Hooray for random video streaks!

[@mikego18753]

Isn't it a great feeling to take it home in one piece& then spend your time looking forward?Cheers,what ever next?

[@yanniaspro]

This was fun watching!!

[@RangieNZ]

Definition of a good pilot: has the same number of landings as takeoffs! :)

[@505LandOfEntrapment]

What a rough landing but good work over all! Awesome! Now, only if you get inside of it and take it for a ride!

[@geko771]

This is simply awesome. WOW!

[@PaulsPlace265]

This is AWESOME!

[@betweenyouandsky]

Wow ! I love it,I love it,I love it ! I want one just like that,too ! It's so neat.

[@seansup123]

Sounds real and looks real in sky

[@cnnlt200]

Little update. This model now has 2 turbines. A guy at our club ownes it

[@willm2802]

That’s insane, dose he still have it?

[@carcomp101]

Camcorder FTW!!! Every camcorder video looks good on youtube.

[@karabourne8758]

what a wonderful rc plane.the nicest one I have seen.

[@alexandertropik]

Да, модель конечно очень впечатляет, и не только собственно размерами) Посадить на землю такую вот птичку аккуратненько довольно не просто, наверное и сажали на травку где помягче будет:)

[@lavirider]

Unbelievable!!! This guy either is totally unaware of how non reliable those OS DF engines were back then … or the bravest RC dude I’ve seen so far 😀

[@Z71Coop]

Thats outstanding! Very cool!

[@azzir325]

That is a really impressive build, and getting FOUR glow ducted fans to run so good is no small feat either. Congratulations! I'd love to know more about this plane and its fate. Is it still flying? Maybe converted to EDF or true turbine? Well done!

[@rickewilde]

Ok so I am impressed. Pretty cool

[@ScottsUtubeWorld]

The radios can control the model far beyond what we can see. So we aren't limited by radio range. We are limited by our eyesight.

[@TheTimeCapturer]

I realize that now, but even "hundred" tons, suspended by nothing more than air flow is still quite amazing. :)

[@CitediTeleseries]

Excelente demostración de vuelo en modelos a escala.

[@thomasinvestor6222]

What a great project! Super!!

[@idaho524]

haha had to pin point it right when he glances over at the cam. you know somewhere out there this guys rockin mustache march harder than the rest of us.

[@bibolcs]

WOW..! This is Super Cool..!

[@Superogobongo]

Nevermind, I just followed the link.. It's a really impressive model to build!!!

[@jasmraj]

Impressive flight... i love aeroplanes...

[@elial30]

oh my God!! this is awesome!!

Beautifull, Thank You very much.

[@carlenger9707]

That thing is enormous!!

[@manueljesusrojasvargas7556]

Hermosísimo el vuelo de este Boeing 747 RC.Los felicito.Poco entiendo de éste hermoso deporte, que recién hace 1½ años que lo cultivo.Espectacular resulta ver estos aparatitos en miniatura ( obviamente a escala ), con un motor de metanol, volando y haciendo mil de piruetas conforme la experiencia del titular.Punto y aparte.--

[@remcovanderpas44]

Oh My God......That is Awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@samclosetech]

LOL at those two guys looking like big kids....awesome vid thanks

[@JaybayJay]

Obviously he's the guy that fixes and tinkers with the model, and considering that model cost more than that jumpsuit, I don't think it's a far stretch. And if you can read, the description clearly states this is it's maiden launch of a built from scratch model jet liner. After all the time I sure it took to buy, build, and paint, at this point not taking it seriously would be a trajedy. Besides, he's clearly with the NTSB. I saw this episode on Mayday.

[@AveMaria82100]

Wow. That is pretty cool. Remote control model aircraft has always fascinated me. I have always wanted to learn how to fly one but I think its way too expensive for me.

[@enigma01011]

great build that super rc plane and thumbs up for KLM :)

[@EDGeProjects]

Fantastic!

[@rahalkar108]

Just great work!!!

[@ryanmoloney6626]

A good landing is one in which you can walk away and a great landing is one in which the plane can be used again.

[@LordNitinSaini]

Fantastic Model....if we mute the sound.....nobody could tell its a toy plan in air ;) Great job to the guys behind this.......landing was a bit rough....but m sure they must have worked on that later on....cheers mate!!!!!!

[@chefjimmie1]

This is not a RC plane, this is video that was sent to us by the giants from the planet that flight 407 (which disappeared in the Bermuda Triangle in 1976 with all 296 passengers on board.) landed on after getting lost in some fog. They have finally finished fixing their jet so that they can make their way back to earth.

[@robbieperez3385]

An An-225 big and strong enough to fit a person or just a bunch of cargo would be very neat!

[@atelectro1]

Good thing they are not flying this over Tenerife.

[@JishyFishy4106]

I love those PW JT9D powered B747's, though they do not have the JT9D sound. They at least have a spooky howl like a wolf !

[@flipperzflopper5539]

Wow thats amazing, did you make it yourself or bought it or... Anyways its just amaxing! X

[@betcommando]

WOW a 747 is big even when its little!

[@richardneva3015]

Righteous exhibition indeed!

[@Jevanoful]

best rc take off i have seen power to weight ratio seems good

[@asheron9]

very good and the mustache is great too.

[@hillbilly2065]

I am a american. So it happen to my country! and I loved it

[@Inkyfan]

wow!fantastic plane

[@LELionsSpongebob]

oha, die Landung... Aber wirklich beeindruckend!

[@WillTheTimeCome2]

Definitely awesome!

[@Edmonchuck]

Nice video. Thanks for posting.
