GIANT SCALE - De HAVILAND MOSQUITO DISPLAY - RICHARD RAWLE AT THE LMA FLY-IN AT BUCKMINSTER - 2024

[@AllanPerkins-e4k]

A beautiful model well flown. A joy to watch! Well done!

[@Hywel-g3r]

That has got to be one of the best RC. Mossi's out there. Absolutely stunning...and flown as if he was in the cockpit!!.😊😊😊👍❤

[@tbobborap1]

Couldn't agree more!

[@malcolmlane-ley2044]

Yes it was marvellous and the speed also seemed very appropriate. Maybe a camera fitted in the cockpit next?

[@coolhand1964]

If it had 3 bladed props and you were not told it was a model, you would almost believe it was the real thing. Nice to see Australian markings and no D-Day stripes as well. 👍🇦🇺

[@mauricelundivanegmond7258]

Beautiful model. Flown with style and a masterclass landing with a tail dragger. Well done Sir.

[@tbobborap1]

Thank you kindly

[@pilott7435]

what a beauty and well done on the flying perfect , but must be nerve racking to fly such a machine Well done PT

[@nicholasbell9017]

I always watch with baited breath, the landing. It was perfect. A magnificent Mozzie! Thank you.

[@tbobborap1]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@octohumboldt5214]

People think our planes get larger as we get older because we’re more experienced and can afford larger planes. The reality is they get larger so we can still see them.

[@eriglebrundelabouexiere472]

Beautiful plane, and at last, a realistic way of flying it! Most of times, even beautiful models are way too fast to look like the real thing. This was a real pleasure to watch, many thanks.

[@tbobborap1]

Thanks a lot!

The closely cropped turf makes even the taxying appear full-size.

[@Redone-625]

What a beauty, 10 out of 10, I worked on these in the RAF, it looked the real thing when flying.

[@christopherfriedberg6597]

Very Nice airplane ! Excellent build ! Congratulations ! Thank you for sharing !

[@tbobborap1]

Many thanks!!

[@billknudson7895]

A gorgeous model of a magnificent airplane. I first came to learn about the Mosquito when my dad took me to see the movie “633 Squadron.” I’ve been a fan ever since. Excellent work!

[@tbobborap1]

Many thanks!

[@welshpete12]

That's a keeper , wonderful model ! Put the right engine sound on the video and you couldn't tell the difference between it and the real thing .

[@453421abcdefg12345]

Absolutely fantastic! This would really be a good platform for a camera in the nose, beautifully flown and presented. Many thanks for posting this one. Chris B.

[@mattscrane]

Beautifully flown and video'd. Reasonably realistic sounding engines, and very good wheel landing too! Well done!

[@tbobborap1]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@manuelbeltranmeza]

Beautiful model. Congratulations to the builder. Greetings from La Paz Mexico.

Fantastic job. A great watch!

[@tbobborap1]

Glad you liked it!

[@dhouse-d5l]

Absolutely spot on, the build and the flying, tho that wing over makes me think of the one that crashed....anyway just superb.

[@markfrench8892]

That model is absolutely magnificent.

[@michaelcuthbert6956]

I have to agree!

[@Pete-tq6in]

Wow, the best RC Mosquito I've ever seen, it looks so scale in the air. Beautifully flown too.

[@tbobborap1]

Wow, thanks!

[@Pete-tq6in]

@@tbobborap1 thank YOU for your excellent camera work, you're a master when it comes to filming RC models and you must put a lot of time and money into travelling all over the country to capture your footage. It's much appreciated!

[@ront.9414]

Hope we can see more of this awesome model in the future.

[@barqwoof]

Before the rise of CGI in the film industry, this beauty would of been right at home on the silver screen as a movie star. Richard has scored with this model. Thank you for sharing Pete. Jim

[@tbobborap1]

cheers jim, funny you should say that as she nearly was used in a British tv series but alas it never happened !

[@keithad6485]

These large scale models would have to be much lower cost form film makers than CGI, and more realistic.

[@wwjoesr]

Wow!!! That’s a real beauty, awesome sound and flying skills. Great camera work!😊

[@tbobborap1]

many thanks

[@andyandrews788]

Beautiful model. Great flying as well. Congrats!

"Perfect"! No other words required!

[@Halfpounder]

Loved the bodge comments at the end, the real thing was the ultimate bodge given the scarcity of metals etc, British engineering at its absolute best. Beautiful model, perfect landing and a thrill to see her fly. Great job 😊

[@tbobborap1]

Totally agree

[@billstewart5421]

It’s a beautiful machine! Love it

[@soggybottom3463]

Am I really going to sit a watch an rc aircraft buzzing round for nearly 10 minutes? Yes, yes I am....gorgeous, well done guys.

[@Brian-om2hh]

Some folk happily watch lots of players kick a football around for 90 minutes, and pay lots of money to do it. It's whatever floats your boat....

many thanks

Stunning absolutely stunning

[@tbobborap1]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@kennethsleigh3170]

one of the best and a perfect landing

[@SopwithTheCamel]

Superb landing. The best I have seen, RC wise.

[@laurencedanks2128]

Handelled so well looks like the real thing only let down I wold love to see 3 bladed props on these fine machines Larry in dorset

[@tbobborap1]

The reason most modelers only use two bladed props on their scale models is because most models only have a single cylinder two stroke engine in it and these engines simply do not produce any where Near enough power to turn a scale 3 or 4 bladed prop fast enough to get the model off the ground. That is why they are turning 2 blade props to suit the power output of the single cylinder engine, Don’t forget the real aircraft had V12 or 18 cylinder radial aero engines in them and the power to weight ratio is a lot different on a model aero engine - the bigger 250cc & 450cc (5 and 7 cylinders) radial engines can turn bigger 3 or 4 bladed props on them but they still might not be full scale props, and these big 3 or 4 blade props cost into the hundreds of pounds and if the model noses over the props are destroyed, imagine doing that 2 or 3 times over a weekend ! most people simply cannot afford such luxuries and resort to cheaper smaller models with cheaper smaller engines and props, Hope this info helps !

[@johnwheeler5271]

Great model Real skill in flying thankyou

[@jumpingjacks5558]

[@tbobborap1]

Glad you enjoyed it sam

[@TheGeezzer]

That RC DeHaviland Mosquito is awesome and by all appearances, seems to fly very well indeed. IRL it was a magnificent aircraft, being very light and very fast with a good payload capacity. An ideal photo reconnaissance plane! The RC model is right there in its airspace! Nice photo shoot at end of video!

[@tbobborap1]

thanks geezer

[@Paiadakine]

Wow what a model!!!!! Fantastic

Fantastic model!

[@Dan.d649]

What a beautiful model!! The Mosquito was a legend back in the cold war. The model airplane itself has the speed just like it's legendary full sized original back in the day. Great showing here!! An absolutely incredible looking model.

[@terencebull6340]

I don’t think you mean the Cold War I think you mean World War II

[@Dan.d649]

@@terencebull6340 Yes, I'm sorry, my error. World War II.

[@tomheetderks9997]

wow, stunning! The full scale is 54' span, guessing this must be about 1/4 scale? Twin Moki's or whatever they are sounds amazing!!!

[@josephking6515]

I think it may be 1/6. I knew someone who make a 1/6 scale Ju-87 and it was on the very similar scale as this. The Ju-87 went into incredible detail where the rivets were raise as too were the inspection hatches. The guy said he was to scared to fly it after all the time he had put into the aircraft. That was 40 years ago. Sorry, reminiscing just like watching the DH-98 since I swear I could hear Merlins at one stage of his flight.

[@fredschneider5352]

What a great scale flight. Landing was beyond awesome.

[@tbobborap1]

Glad you enjoyed it fred

Great video and it doesn’t crash good to see

[@Mastermodeler.]

Fantastic! Can't wait to learn the details on it. Ie. Engines, wing span, weight etc.

[@thecorbies]

If it's the aircraft I think it is, it is, or used to be powered by 2 x Zenoah twins (G45 -60's? or similar). Actually, my curiosity got the better of me and I just Googled this. Link below. rawleaviation.blogspot.com/p/plans.html

So damn cool!

[@Airsally]

Very nice, what engines are used and what is the all up weight?

[@leodis55]

Richard , congrats on a superb looking model. It looks like the crew are going to climb out after that landing it's so realistic. Nice take off and landing . Well done, Hawker Tempest 5 next ?
