Many thanks Tim, for your kind comment! Best regards, Horst

[@RCScaleAirplanes]

Me too, Taylor. As you might have noticed, the landing flaps on the wings did not work. You can see Poldi at the beginning of the video where he disables the servo linkage ervos due to an electrical problem. Thanks for your kind comment. Much appreciated !!!

[@RCScaleAirplanes]

Many thanks for your kind comment. This Moki radial engines sound good.

[@RCScaleAirplanes]

Thanks for your great comment, George. You might be right, but "Poldi" was more then 1 meter in front of the plane. Due to the camera angle it appeared much closer. Any how, he should take more care of it. Best regards, RCSA

[@RCScaleAirplanes]

Many thanks. This plane sounds really cool !!!

[@RCScaleAirplanes]

[@RCScaleAirplanes]

Many thank's Steve vor your compliments ! Sorry for being late with my reply. I receive too many comments to be answered. Stay tuned. Best regards, Horst

[@RCScaleAirplanes]

Thank you. Yes, you're right. The power - weight ratio is mostly to high on rc planes. The speed was a bit too high but this was the maiden flight and the pilot dont want to risk any stall. Now, 6 month later, he fly it lit it should. Best regards, RCSA

[@RCScaleAirplanes]

Thank you for watching all of those maiden flights. As I've mentioned before, the season has just begun and much more videos will follow. Stay tuned, my friend !!! Cheers, Horst

Super Flugzeug und wie immer toll in Szene gesetzt von Dir, bitte weiter so

[@wilcoxjames2]

Beautiful Plane! The sound of the 250 Moki is awesome on the flyby, especially when throttling up!!

[@RCScaleAirplanes]

Thank you Marcquez !!!

[@RCScaleAirplanes]

Thank you Joe !

[@RCScaleAirplanes]

Thanks Bob. It's always a pleasure to read your great comments !!! This is the 12th and last maiden of that club I'll upload.

[@DickGibson]

A beautiful plane and looks so real when flying. Great job

[@lavalleyk]

Great looking plane... sounds great and it looks like it flies like a dream... awesome job!!!

[@bullranderman]

A really lovely model flown at nice sensible speed. Love the ground work with the camera. 👍

[@RCScaleAirplanes]

Thank you for your kind comment. I'm glad to know, that you liked watching the video. _Best regards, RSCA_

[@Raptor50aus]

Excellent video as usual love that sound

[@Kwak46]

FANTASTIC! !!!!!!! I enjoy so much watching your warbirds and what great video's you make. :-)

[@allanmorningstar3073]

Another beautiful airplane an engine sound, don't see many Moki's in New Brunswick, Canada

[@SN1350]

Why in the hell would anybody give this a thumb down, I dont understand. Absolutely gorgeous.

[@transformer889]

+SN1350 I it is called jealousy, it is a very ugly thing

[@SN1350]

+transformer889 i would love to be able to just go and visit that place and hang out with those guys.

[@transformer889]

+SN1350 Well you better brush up your German, what gets me watching this video is that as the hobby is dying in US it is growing in Europe. Well we had our golden years in 80's, now it ARF, park flyers, E flights, and many junks like that imported from China, the art of building and flying your model is gone now.

[@RCScaleAirplanes]

+transformer889 *_L00oo00L_* ... I just don't care about dislikes :) As you've already said. Most of them are jealousy ... some maybe of bad video quality :)

[@RCScaleAirplanes]

+transformer889 *_You're right man_* ... Rc Airplanes are getting worse in the United States. As far as I know, the laws are stricter. This is what I heard from an US friend last week. If the AMA cannot stop the FAA from stating registration of all modelers that fly in the US. They want to start paying a fee and if you fly anything over 55 pounds you need to register it like a real aircraft with paperwork what would take you months to years to get approved.

[@RCScaleAirplanes]

Besten Dank, Doc. Sorry für die verspätete Antwort. Bekomme z.Zt. zu viele Kommentare und mein Tag hat leider auch nur 24 Stunden (ツ) Viele Grüße, Horst

[@RCScaleAirplanes]

kein Problem :)

[@RCScaleAirplanes]

Thank you Chester. Apologies my late reply to your question. This is not a scratch build model. It's a fibre glass kit from Ralf Petrausch (w w w . petrausch-modellbau . de) Best regards, RCSA

[@andersolsen6523]

The T-6 was mainly a trainer, so we wouldn't have to worry about getting them confused with the enemy. And the scheme was used during WWII.

[@RCScaleAirplanes]

Many thanks Pete !!! This camera now is on ebay 4 sale :) It's a Canon XH-A1S and I was not so happy with it. It's very tricky if you do video in manual mode. To do videos in automatic mode I don't need a pro-camcorder. A new camera is ordered. Cheers, Horst

[@stevegauth30]

A beautiful Texan indeed.

[@Rookiesaviation]

You guys do the best RC aircraft videos. Thanks and keep them rolling :)

[@zypher2011]

Great looking & flying AT-6

[@RCScaleAirplanes]

Thank you Dick. This was the last maiden that day. More interresting videos will follow soon. I'm waiting for my new camera :) Best regards, Horst

[@Starliner57]

Nice plane, great sound, and very good flying! Congratulations!

[@buellbruce]

Nice plane and love the sound of that 5 cylinder!! Thanks for a great video :))

[@RCScaleAirplanes]

Ich gehe davon aus, dass jedes Mitglied sein Modell selbst bezahlt hat, oder bekommst Du Deine Flieger vom Verein gestellt? Danke für's Kompliment ツ

[@Extra300000]

[@colinallison.785]

Lovely job, what a delight to see this. Thank you for sharing.

[@RCScaleAirplanes]

Thank you for watching and commenting. Much appreciated !!!

[@ninashiva67]

echt super sound !!

[@DEeMONsworld]

one meter full throttle, 1 second to impact, I had this experience when accidentally the servo was reversed while engine was running. I luckily jumped out of the way, ( I was farther away and standing looking at the model) It was a mere 3W 80cc on a 1/3 extra, it gave me religion. Also luckily there was a wooden table which prevented the model from hurtling into people in the pit area. Sadly but fortunately the model took the brunt of the damage.

[@fabioandredelima3359]

I have one here in Brazil, is my favorite, flies very well .. Congratulations commander, gorgeous aero.

[@RCScaleAirplanes]

Thank you for your compliments, which I really appreciate. I'm very pleased to know, that you liked watching the video. _Best regards, RCSA_

[@RCScaleAirplanes]

Oh yes, that's true.

[@RCScaleAirplanes]

Danke Christian für das Anschauen und Kommentieren des letzten Videos aus dieser Serie :) Poldi war einen halben Meter vor dem Modell ... da kann nix passieren. Ohne Deinen Klick wären es "nur" 109 (◕‿◕) Viele Grüße, Horst

[@RCScaleAirplanes]

Many thanks Chad for your perseverance, to watch my videos. I'll have a look to your channel and you will get a feedback from me a.s.a.p. All the best for you !!!

[@gadix11]

who is the guy with white hat? i see him in each clip allmost..?

[@gadlevy9205]

I noticed that you are using only the central part of the flaps Is it effective enough during the landing?

[@blacklight0304]

she sounds evil great man.

[@RCScaleAirplanes]

Thanks !

[@thechester1952]

Beautiful airplane and superb flying. Was this aircraft scratch built? How did you squire the blue prints?

[@glennissr]

Not to belabor a point but do you think if he was even 6 feet away and in the same position and that plane went to full power he could get out of the way? But the the real object of this video was the plane, and what a beauty she is. I would love to have one like that.

[@TinkerManRC]

Wow Horst Very cool Awesome Big Thumbs Up..Tim

[@thechester1952]

How did you acquire the blue prints?

[@ronipiagetti7330]

Wanderful

[@RCScaleAirplanes]

thanks !!!

[@RCScaleAirplanes]

As far as I know, the yellow paint scheme was used after WWII

[@williewideback]

Very nice

[@vanpenguin22]

Good thing Uncle Sam thought to paint them bright yellow so we didnt get them confused with the Japanese Val when at altitude.

[@tenoriocarros]

Incrivel, belíssimo aeromodelo, parabéns

[@RCScaleAirplanes]

_thank you very much Geraldo !!!_

[@RCScaleAirplanes]

It's a fibre glass kit from Ralf Petrausch (w w w . petrausch-modellbau . de) Check out my channel for the newest video of this beautiful model !!! Best regards, RCSA

[@RCScaleAirplanes]

Don't ask him to do it .. he might be able to do.

[@RCScaleAirplanes]

Thanks ... Moki rulez (ツ)
