How to Make F-16 RC Jet with 70mm EDF and Fly it

[@brandonrunyon]

Legit engineering skills right there, the kinds of things I wish I could build as a kid. How fun.

[@joebennie6042]

Really Jules,this is my favorite plane,because it looks great and has a great lift to weight ratio. From micro’s to 1/5 Skymaster and they all fly the same. Glad to see no flying Stabillators,makes for more precise pitch control. You Sir are in a class beyond us! Spectacular to say the least!!!

[@kennethwhite9720]

This was glorious! I was glued to the screen through the whole video. What a tragic end for such an amazing build! Absolute talent! And very inspiring I think I might give this build a try! I’ve been wanting to fly a jet in fpv!

[@BenErikNess]

It did fly, hope you find time to build it once more! I'm still waiting for the next 747-400 episode!

[@barqwoof]

Always amazing to watch a master designer and builder. The nature of our hobby is sometimes there are failures but believe me when I say, your creations are remarkable. Jim

[@JuliusPerdana]

Thank you very much!

[@garyhilson7220]

You are absolutely brilliant as a craftsman, engineer, design engineer and MASTER MODEL BUILDER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You inspire me!!!!

[@JuliusPerdana]

Wow, thanks!

[@aviationunlimited4353]

Amazing replication of one of the most difficult rc models to build. Great F16 project. Next you should do a JF17 Thunder model !

[@rcbinchicken]

Brilliant work as always! :D The editing style of weaving between the events of the flight tests and the different steps of the build was very clever, more like a professional TV documentary! I am amazed at how good the finished F-16 looked, and while it is infuriating that it crashed from a cut cable, it is good to know that there was no inherent fault in the design. Did the EDF unit and the other elctronics survive the final impact?

[@JuliusPerdana]

thanks, yes they are good for the next jets

i always like it, when i see unfinished fuselages, especially of f16s. This is just beautiful! I like it!

[@colincollier3355]

What another amazing build Julius. You have such great talent. I feel so sorry for the sad ending to the flight of the F16. I hope you rebuild or repair it with more success. Congratulations on your KZbin award. You thoroughly deserve it. I'm looking forward to your future builds.

[@JuliusPerdana]

thank you :) I will use the parts for Yak-130

[@LMP-R]

Man you make gluing the foam look sooooo easy, it's a learned skill I have found, my DC-3 look ROUGH lol.

[@jwc4520]

Circle of life with model flight , build , fly , crash, build ... with age the process becomes more of a challenge. It was an awesome build a real beauty... so guess it's time to build another. I have built several of my pet project ...all have been destroyed so I work on fixing the problem ... but this time I shall let a younger pilot have the stick... take care and keep us inspired with your awesome models .

[@Youdontwannaknow..]

Been waiting for this for a such a long time . Good to see it finally released. Thank you very very much

[@tapenagiuniversity1551]

Immediately a fan after i saw this. You are a really, massively talented person, bro. Syabas dan tahniah dari Kuantan, malaysia. Those film people who are making dog fight war films should hire you. I would if I was one. Ha!

[@felipesantana3431]

Julius Great work your videos are amazing. You show the effort, the success and the bad time. This is part of a human routine. I love your projects. Thumbs up dropped from Brasília Brazil. ( If possible for you please consider building the Airbus Beluga )

Julius I know now where hacker is soon I will have him and I will sponsor you have not forgot U.

[@MickB235]

Another amazing build from the master craftsman, sorry to see it crash after all that work but I look at it this way too , when it happens and it is moderately or severely damaged, it immediately opens the door to learning and experimentation with different techniques and to see where things can be improved. I'm not far off finishing my build of your Cherokee design and can't wait to fly it. Looking forward to your next project and curious to see how that immense 747 is coming along. Cheers mate

[@mirzawaseem2006]

Good to know that you are also making Cherokee. I have also built a Cherokee but still i don't get time to put on the required electronics on that. Share me your email or Facebook's id. I will post the pics on that.

[@VTOLKits]

Sorry for your loss, hope you can repair it and same time you could add thrust vectoring. Maybe you wouldn't loss the control with T.V. Thumb up!

THANK YOU SO MUCH JULIUS YOU REALIZED MY DREAM OF BUILDING F16 YOU'RE VERY TALENTED .

[@wartobock]

Wow so beautiful work but I feel so sad about your crash. So much work and such a beautiful plane. I stopped counting the same that happened to me because of electronic part malfunctions, sometime intermittent, so harder to find. Now I triple check and test everything and I don't trust anymore BEC on ESC or plastic gear servos on expensive planes. Many thanks for sharing.

[@colinwhite144]

I'm watching you the way you make this model a hell of a lot of work went in to this plane sorry for that crash it must have been deverstaing all the hard work your brain must be very advanced to build project like this I wish I could do something like this your a very clever guy. I'm in proses building f22with cardboard I got plans on phone no mesherments so I had treble up and do it by eye had one mesherments of wing span I'm 73yr old it good to see clever people like your self. I wouldn't even think of building something like what you did great stuff it was very interesting watching your video

[@ulisseslirola]

i'm very happy to see your creation was perfect i'm from brazil i love to watch your videos i'm now making af 16 based on your project i've seen and rewatched the video several times and in my opinion i think it was because of a tilt in the position of the air outlet duct the reason for the fall of the beautiful plane you made congratulations on your videos

[@JuliusPerdana]

thank you, the accident caused by elevator cables were suck by the EDF and snapped, so I have no control of the jet pitch

[@JuanRivera-du9oc]

What excellent workmanship and magnificent creativity and construction, your F-16 has nothing to envy to the manufacture ones. A shame the loss of the model but what a good experience. Thank you for sharing the drawings that I had waiting so long for it. Good luck.

My opinion, if you put some fiberglass on the inner fuselage, it should increase the resistance to avoid breaking.

[@GuruGoesUTube]

Outstanding work as usual! The plane looks just awesome! But Julius, you've to find a better flying field! This soccer field or whatever seems to be way too small, bumpy and crowded for those huge planes.. I know it's hard, i live in a city too and have to drive about 30 minutes to get somewhere i can fly my fpv quads. But with so much time invested in your awesome models they would deserve a decently paved runway and no trees and bushes anywhere close. I just wanted to mention that as it seems you were worried about hitting those trees soon after takeoff and pulled the stick back too hard causing the wires to go into the edf and most likely stall the wings. Keep up the great work, cheers from Austria!

[@GuruGoesUTube]

Btw. that wing looks friggin amazing! :D

I've been flying rc planes and jets for 20 years and I can tell ya I've seen worse crashes. Believe me its fix able. Just next ti.e don't pull up at such a steep angle. Nice video. I'm still working on the 747-400. I'm building the exact same size as yours. And I realized the prop driven is not going to work so I'm used 4 120mm edf units. Run on 8 6s 6000mah lipo batteries. I've got it all wired up and it's got plenty of power. I'm just working on finishing the details.

[@sushifpv1583]

My man! You have inspired me to try and build this plane with me having 0 modeling experience! (The love for the F16 is just too great haha). Now I'm just wondering. Could it be F9 and F21 swapped places? Or did I just do something wrong haha.(F9 didn't line up and was too big and F21 was too short to fit like it does in the vid) Also I'm wondering if everything has to fit picture perfect or if there is some room for error on things like the fuselage. Already decided Ill make 2 of these, first as a learning experience and the second one with hopefully no big mistakes :) Would be great If I could ask some questions sometimes! Love the video and that F16 model you made is just a work of art! Absolutely love everything about this! Except for the ending..
