Erstflug der B25 Mitchell mit 2 x 400ccm Moki-Sternmotoren im Maßstab 1:3

Das war der erste Abnahmeflug zur Erlangung der Fluglizenz,
der in La Ferte (Frankreich) zur IMC erfolgte

[@MrBobinAZ]

This model may be underpowered by "R/C" standards, but it's the first I've ever seen that actually appears to be flying a realistic speed, not racing around like a Formula One. Very well done, gentlemen! You should be proud.

[@kev140kev]

MrBobinAZ At last - someone who appreciates the concept of scale speed

[@Ihaveseenthings577]

And the 3 Prop blades...🤗

[@Wichelroede]

i have seen things *3 blade props

[@originalrcfun7368]

True☝️😊

[@stevenhombrados1530]

The plane is to scale, it’s the people that aren’t.

[@mikemoore9757]

Beautiful aircraft and scale flying. I liked the fact that the pilot didn't try to do any silly flying. It looked like the real thing! Also, a beautiful landing. Love the sound of those twin Moki's.

[@tomjoseph1444]

A scale aircraft that is not over powered and flies very scale like! Very good job guys.

[@terranceprice7006]

And a proper long take off run, very scale like.

[@heyitsvos]

Man the harmonics of those engines on the flyovers are music

[@moremoneyfordreadnoughts1100]

Most realistic flight characteristics I've seen.

[@rrudydedogg3779]

Absolutely the finest example of scale representation I've seen and not just in the plane itself but in take off, landing and the entire flight routine. It's hard to believe this was a maiden flight as it was a competition quality presentation. Kudos to the builder and the flyer.

[@Joe-uo9wv]

Most realistic RC takeoff, cruising and landing I've ever seen.

[@oimtscho]

Genial! Ich bin sehr froh, dass ich endlich den Erstflug gesehen habe! Ein unbeschreiblicher Flieger! GRATULATION!

[@91zulu]

Very nice indeed. Been waiting for this flight for a long time. First time ever seeing Moki engines struggling to pull a plane, WOW ! Now that`s what you call HEAVY METAL.

[@cathleenberreie9768]

I'm just so impressed...that engine sound is just plain AWESOME...thanks for sharing!!

[@ram3500rcu]

Wonderful job of it. I thought it flew at a scale speed with realistic sound from those Moki 400s. Thanks for sharing.

[@andreasadam4127]

Fantastischer Sound und man könnte glauben, dass da eine originale Maschine fliegt. Und zum Glück gab es keine Musik im Hintergrund.

[@avipatable]

Magnificent aeroplane and sound! Love the detail and the moving pilots! Those Moki's had their work cut out for them, hope you can eek some more out of them for next time, but such an amazing aeroplane, congratulations!

[@normblackstock5474]

Looked like a scale flight to me.Greased that landing like a boss.

[@6marco5]

Das ist ja ein Hammermodell ! Und der Klang erst.....Bravo, ganz toll !

[@josehairibatacastro8950]

ggg

[@imagimayo]

hab die B25 Jahr für Jahr auf der Modell und Hobby Messe Leipzig wachsen sehen und nun endlich auch mal fliegen, mein Glückwunsch für diesen gelungenen Flug und zur sicherlich bestandenen Prüfung, BRAVO...

[@cashpoboy]

Without a doubt the coolest RC plane I have ever seen. Great work guys.

[@Ltdeathsquid]

At this point they might as well just build one full scale. That thing is massive!

[@Piratekevin1]

Fantastic model! I fly with Moki engines and they have incredible torque. It sounded to me that you could use more pitch and lower the Rpm's a bit. But it's a big Well Done!!! Show us more!

[@greenseaships]

GOD, I've gotta say that is the BEST-sounding R/C airplane I've ever heard! Miles above the usual weedwhacker/lawnmower sounds of smaller gas engine planes! Real radials are the only way to go! If you've got the money -_-

[@moutonsteve]

i saw this plane on youtube, but never the maiden…..now i'm very happy ! this i by far the most beautiful B25 i ever seen on rc land! many many happy flights with it, and please give us more movie about it !!!!

[@TerryArthur1]

All I can say is WOW. Maybe I can see it live next year when I go to Germany and Austria.

[@brembo450]

I wish that we had a few planes of that quality here in the UK. A real credit to the engineers and the pilot. Thank you for posting.

[@charlesfoster141]

Nice flight, nice airplane. It appears to be very heavy. Those 400 Moki engines seem peaked. I was worried it might not get off the ground for awhile there. New found respect for Doolittle getting off that carrier deck to bomb Tokyo! The last Doolittle Raider died just a couple weeks ago. He was Doolittle's co-pilot. After the war a B25 flew into the Empire State Building entering the Catholic Charities offices. Several were killed.

[@kasperholger]

great sound, best modelairplane takeoff EVER! i hope to see it live next year :D

[@gtsstang]

Gelungener Erstflug eines fantastischen Modells. Chapeau dem Erbauer und Piloten. Schön Scale geflogen, tolles Flugbild. Schade, dass die Videoqualität nicht besser ist.

[@WizardOfChicamunga]

The low pitched roar at throttle, and the grumble and lope of those engines at idle is beyond belief!... I love this even if it is 240dpi. I have sense enough to know what the subject matter is here and I'm sure you weren't show casing film quality! ---> 2 thumbs up pal!

[@azizors1658]

SledgeHammer l

[@catey62]

Thats what I thought when I heard it idling before they took it out to the airstrip..you could almost be forgiven for thinking it was the real thing the way it sounded..and on take off as well. just beautiful.

[@aaj771]

Es un gran placer ver y oír este modelo! Maravilloso trabajo !!!!!

[@darrellbigfoot6989]

Incredible model. Great work on this plane! Post more videos. Beautiful plane.

[@blusharx]

Ein ganz starkes Modell!

[@22fret]

Wow, ich bin beeindruckt, schön, dass das Prachtstück endlich fliegen darf...

[@1947196051]

Very, very impressive! Absolutely beautiful.

[@OTTOMOBIL8]

PERFEKT !!! SPITZENMODELL !!!

[@secularsunshine9036]

That thing is something else, very impressive. *Let the Sunshine.* *The Sun that Rises everyday...* .

[@AZRC001]

Great job of building and flying, I have been watching for this all year. I agree with the Heavy Metal comment, what a scale flight and great landing. I don't understand the text at the end of the video but if it says "Amazing Job" its correct.

[@user-hb8be5wb4q]

Ain’t never been since, never will be a better sound of aircraft radial!

[@oscarernesto6384]

It’s a breathtaking symphony; speechless

[@42percent]

Best use of the big Moki yet!

[@SirRobertofKnoxly]

Brilliant, sounded almost full sized. Congratulations.

[@FireballGER]

Top was ein Gerät, habe hochachtung vor leuten die sich sowas bauen... Hut ab jungs, hoffe sie wird noch lange fliegen.

[@afenijmeijer9027]

Wow. Have just seen this video. What a beautiful model. Is it it still flying in 2021?

[@johnhemingway597]

A fantastic plane, sound is brilliant.

[@jean-pierrepodik9638]

Bonjour! le son des deux moteurs en étoile est très réaliste. Super pilotage merci pur cette vidéo.

[@retro440]

Absolutely beautiful in every way!!

[@williammuzzey1209]

My favorite RC B-25 Mitchell

[@873Mike]

Incredible workmanship. Awesome piloting job with a seriously underpowered plane. Looked a bit tail heavy too(?). Thanks for posting.

[@stefangerdes7147]

Hut ab...Super Arbeit Super Sound...alles SUPER !!! Euch würd ich sogar eine He 177 zutrauen...ohne den dazu gehörenden Motorbränden...kann ich gar nicht genug von sehen...bitte mehr. Viel Glück für die nächsten Flüge....

[@anthonywinkler6666]

I agree, the speed is very realistic for an R?C plane of its size, great build! "Keep Em Flyein"!

[@BIGGBULLxxx]

Nice looking airplane it looks so beautiful ... but it seems like it needs much more powerful motors.

[@johnbravo7542]

Majestic, wow! very nice landing

[@Rafsan62]

Congratulations, great plane and beautiful flight . Wish you have many hours of flying and nice landi

[@abc123546879]

Love the size of the Mitchell.

[@doktorij]

Would love to see the building of this plane. Definitely a labor of love.

[@rookie1525]

just wonderful. congratulations for your work! I know how much time it took. have you been able to adjust the center of gravity a little?

[@Jaujau933]

Awesome motor sound

[@bretthobson5073]

Amazing, I can only imagine how much work to build. Details are fantastic, very realistic. Hope you guys have a great time with it. It would be great if you ever bring your plane to the states for a photo of it next to N1042b. As a side note we are having our annual B25 ground school on April 27th 2013 for the real B25 Pacific Prowler it’s open to the public, we ask that you make a $325 donation to help keep the plane flying.

[@Pasdee]

hat die kiste einen geiles ound. und wunderschöne Optik!

[@DrDave239]

Outstanding!!! Well Done!!!

[@MrJasperDaniel]

It seems to me that the thrust of the engines is just great enough..

[@pentatonic22]

Beautiful bird!

[@TheMonolake]

Awesome just awesome why isnt there a doc. On how these beauty are built start to finish

[@andy57ize]

Very impressive,beautiful airplane! Bravo! Though looked a bit underpowered or/and tail heavy(?) in flight at full throttle all the way?

[@chadcole1646]

BEAUTIFUL plane and she sounds GREAT! I hope you have changed props with a different pitch by now. I think those Moki's are a great match for this plane but just need to change props. Great detail as well..!!

[@markspc1]

Such a dedication.

[@Rafsan62]

Nice and safe landings.....great job

[@stevemiller7433]

This thing is huge. How many horsepower is a 400cc Moki? is it enough to power an ultralight?

[@johnritchie4801]

Sound 100% like the real deal

[@blusharx]

Great Sound

[@4Bluetars]

Pretty freaking Amazing!

[@TheFunkhouser]

So realistic!

[@chasyes1]

sounds like it's struggling to stay in the air! also not too fast, but certainly COOL!!!

[@G56AG]

Incredible plane!

[@arthurm.3565]

Simply amazing !!!!

[@Avionics1958]

This is real giant !!! And sound beatiful

[@AlanWS55]

That's some serious soundage

[@b.p.7153]

Awesome! 👍

[@alanfruner6325]

Thanks for posting this. This model deserves a much better camera though! Pilots hands on working controls an incredible detail! ps only one pilot should be "flying" tho;)

[@idleonlooker1078]

What a superb model!! Now, about that next project - a B-17G Flying Fortress with 4 of these engines? 👍

[@abc123546879]

Great landing.!!!!!!!

[@frepi]

Ohhh that sound!!!!

[@wfeletronica]

The engines are not synchronized.The scale is perfect

[@adrianbasoalto4324]

FANTÁSTICO !!!

[@Ihaveseenthings577]

Does the cowl flaps work, too?

[@tundralou]

Sounds are great

[@skarsquadwildflieger1166]

was zum... ihr seid bekloppt :). Saugeil das Teil !

[@noversibirsk]

that thing is huge! just a little smaller than my real Cessna 172! wow! nice bird!

[@bondophobic]

that is awesome now all we need is the same scale b-17

[@christopherlent7895]

Sounds good.

[@BunchyFishin]

keep in mind these radials are scaled down versions of the real thing but the one thing they forgot was a supercharger that is on both engines thats what the scoop on top of the engine cowlings is for, it is the air intake for the supercharger no doubt if they put those on it would fly much better.

[@onfin3al6]

Are there 2 of these now ? They need fly together , that would be awesome .

[@GraemeSPa]

wow. great model.

[@IronHearts007]

Toller Flieger toller Sound aber wie einige Beschrieben haben quälen sich die Motoren etwas zu Schwach .Was wiegt er eigentlich.

[@Warbird_Flyer]

Beautiful plane! Great flying! How about putting in two Valach 800cc engines for more power?

[@kennethhamilton5633]

Real 25s didn't have that kinda horse pwr in reality, but they clattered didn't roar like others something to do with the exhaust stacks

[@JanuszWidlaENERGOWID]

Bravo .

[@corvette724]

Das Beste das ich je gesehen habe. Soll ich meinen Junior mal fragen ob er den Pilotensitz einnimmt? ;-) Gibt es eine FotoDoku vom Bau?

[@mreid08]

He wins,,,,,Best model EVER!!!!

[@Scrapheap71]

WOW!! what is that, 1/4 scale??

[@plugs313]

Is it just me or... well, it looks like it's awfully heavy (under powered)... That being said, it is a work of art.

[@rrudydedogg3779]

Just like the full scale B-25? These things didn't just leap off the ground nor did they have much of a cruising speed.

[@bigliftm]

is there a crash video yet ?

[@HeavensGremlin]

Hell, that's a BIG bugger. Looks like it needs about 50% more power though, there's a lot of drag on something that big....!
