CARF Giant F-4 - Weston Park 2024 - First Flight in the United Kingdom - 14 June 2024

[@1947acw]

Still the best looking jetfighter, ever built.

[@The43rdHammer]

There’s beauty in the Rhino for sure

[@DR-999]

Love the afterburner effect ...fantastic !!

[@The43rdHammer]

It's quite bright, even in the daylight 👍

[@marchough2424]

Just a beautiful model which looks fantastic from all angles. Really nicely flown as well.

[@The43rdHammer]

Andreas did an amazing job, it was a UK certification flight done in front of hundreds of people... no pressure then 🙃

[@wikeroy]

What a great performance!!!

[@DidierCollin-jm3uj]

very fun

[@jackmehoffer7819]

Perfect!

[@paulcarruthers1314]

No drama rotation, but as it shows I thought the nose gear looked a bit spindly

[@davewilshere]

It hit a lump and that put a crack in the nose leg pin. The production models have a larger pin. Leg extended is 450mm long!

[@glynhughes2983]

Very impressive model you've got there mate just like a proper real one and i like the F-4 phantoms even those I've never never heard one in person

[@The43rdHammer]

I wish it was mine 🙂

[@tonyf9076]

Looks like it represents a carrier oleo extension hence the longer nose wheel strut. Needs the shorter conversion imo ??

[@The43rdHammer]

I agree completely

[@kevbrown1867]

Too bad they didn’t have a proper paved runway for that gorgeous Phantom That rough crass strip broke the nose gear off

[@The43rdHammer]

Yes, not many left in the UK for RC planes now

[@benoitkina9551]

It's incredible at such a level of price and technicity to have so much gear failures when you look at rc jets videos on the Web ...

[@AcysLounge]

The black smoke trails are missing! ;-)

[@The43rdHammer]

😀 'Old Smokey'

[@johnsexton3232]

no smoke in burner.

[@ManuelLeal80]

era de esperar que el tren delantero si no al despegue al aterrizaje se iba a romper, se veia en el despegue que es un tren muy endeble y delgado y aun más con lo que rebota en el cesped, lo que no entiendo que para estas personas que tienen este hobbie porque no hacen unas pistas asfaltadas que es mejor para despegar, para rodar y para aterrizar. El cesped es malísimo.
