Jet World Masters 2011 SR 71

Best off Sr 71. Twine P-120 super scale one of the best jets in USA totally home made jet .

[@dkline74]

Holy crap... that was the most perfect landing of an RC plane I've ever seen... Well done, sir!

[@ricoelias]

That was and is still a magnificent display of skill and talent!

[@jones1351]

My first duty assignment in the USAF was to the 9th SRW, Beale AFB, Ca., in 1975. Watching this video brings back a memory or two - the 'blackbird' and the U-2, 'Habu!' I started in supply but 'cross trained' into medical and moved to the flight surgeons office in '80. While there, I worked with, a then, Lt. Col. Carl A. Haller (R.I.P), who had been a blackbird pilot until a mishap ended his flying career. He then went to medical school and became a flight surgeon. BTW Harris, you’re right, the blackbird was a two seat plane - pilot and RSO/navigator. There were also special double cockpit ‘B’ training models; they had 1 cockpit stacked behind and over the other. Anyway, it's impressive to see what these hobbyists were able to do.

[@cpthornman]

I was there. What a joy it was to see this beauty fly.

[@RCScaleAirplanes]

Great plane. Great flight !

[@ex59neo53]

1st SR 71 built : 1964 . And it still looks like coming from the future :)

[@cup_and_cone]

9 years to make, knowing it could come falling out of the sky at any moment. That's a lot of dedication and free time.

[@JediKillerz]

Absolutely amazing!!! As I read some of the ignorant comments below, it became very clear that some people have no understanding of "passion" or "commitment" in one's life. To be able to create something that brings joy & possibly inspiration to others, should be celebrated rather than ridiculed . Thank you for posting it.

[@vanpenguin22]

We were all hoping you'd post the images captured from the on-board GO Pro, but we understand, they're classified.

[@abdinasirkaysehassan6147]

[@jerryg50]

This is an amazing hobby. I am sure his hobby has amazing cost to it!

[@RSTI191]

If you ever get the chance, they sound amazing live

[@mja9700]

So far the most very realistic I've seen from taxi, take off, and landing. Excellent job.

[@Nubber]

I was an Aircraft Mechanic on the SR71 from 67 to 69 at Beal AFB California. This was unbelievable. Hats off to the builder and pilot.

[@OnHoldAt50]

Very cool jet. Please ask the camera person to use the zoom feature of the camera next time?

[@AngelLuisTrinidad]

Now we need little people to fly in it.

[@Ayoubayoub-gc7pl]

😂😂ant man

[@bigpeen3172]

Angel Luis Trinidad yes yes ant man

[@riadmatar5005]

Angel Luis Trinidad good joke

[@slabiciune]

When I was a little kid I would go watch these guys fly their little RC Planes at a Forest Preserve in Chicago. This Plane is amazing and "Hats Off" to the gentlemen who built it. That is called talent and time well spent.

[@thomasmcewen5493]

I was flying over plant 42 and I looked out the cockpit window and there was a SR 71 on a long final, beautiful, just beautiful.

[@RichardDrinkPepsi]

Imagine the planes now that 3D-printers exist... How much easier it will be to produce these home-made parts

[@elytheteddybear2026]

The hardest part is where we have to build big-ass 3d printers that cost too damn much

[@codewahn]

should have used this to take the hobbits to mordor

[@P61guy61]

I think that is one of the smoothest at-71 model flights that I have ever watched. Thanks for posting.

[@cgabriel1218]

I did not expect that plane to fly so smooth. It is a testament to the quality that went into building such an inherently unstable (at low speeds) platform, and one heck of a stick. Excellent all around! Thank you.

[@HighInquisitorBonobotheGreat]

OMG I WANT IT!!! i'd probably break it at the first day...., but I WANT IT!! :D

[@HighInquisitorBonobotheGreat]

***** blackbird for the win!! :D

[@denniselliott27]

Dude needs to put a GoPro camera in the cockpit.

[@wesleyr1229]

This videos brings back so many memories

[@stagefright13]

Awesome video of my favorite airplane! Thanks so much for sharing! Loved it!

[@jimmythunder8671]

anyone else thinking of just strapping down on that and flying away

[@weijizhu3729]

impossible

[@ramombrito5577]

Como nâo se a tecnologia a maquina e o homem ja estâo acasalados vamos ver coisas inacreditaves feitas pelo HOMEM e maravilhoso e so o começo

[@ramombrito5577]

MARAVILHOSO OBRIGADO!!!

[@greggoodwin6227]

Being I used to work on the real one, this person did a fantastic job recreating the Blackbird.

[@UshuaiaRick]

Fabulous. The sound effect was most realistic of any r/c I have seen

[@dirkhoekstra727]

Is it flying through some of the clouds? It complete disappears from sight many times! Might just be camera.

[@TheAlucard6662]

It does fly through clouds a few times , but the silhouette of this model and the real one are almost exact , and the real was designed to very hard to see when it was coming at you and other angles, sideways, from back it was a little easier to see, also from under or above, besides at the speeds it flew, by the time you saw it , it was to late. :)

[@hxor]

DeForest Sparks Lockheed Martin's Skunkworks really did a great job on building the A-12 and later on the SR-71 Blackbird and the YF-12! Nice RC model too!

[@bhaskarmaity2890]

How much does it cost ?

[@elprogamer-zj8ug]

Bhaskar Maity 5.500 pounds o dollars its realy

[@67Bullshark]

TOP VIDEO!! Great construction!! Thanks for posting!!

[@dangleason9023]

God DAMN! Some of those sky only shots really made it look like an SR-71 was passing over. Sound, relative speed-Man! Its so cool how its cross section when its facing you its almost invisible. Great work and amazing flying!

[@optimusprimesqrt6]

I remember working the real plane.....see these models brings back memories and gives me such a thrill.

[@spikejones9158]

I just found this video. All I can say is, "OMG" what a beautiful aircraft. What a fantastic piloting.

[@richardboudville5188]

I would never have believed it if I had not see this demonstration on KZbin! Congratulations on your achievement 1) Building it and; 2) Flying it by R.C. so flawlessly. From Perth, Western Australia.

[@RSBSTEADICAM]

Nice job and glad to see you have fire gear nearby. I love the way it howls!

[@CarthSader]

This is so AWESOME!!! Loved it!!!

[@highspeeddrifto]

Awesome! I don't see how you could have made that any better. I'm sure a lot of love, hard work, and time went into making that aircraft.

[@nchcroy3877]

Jeez....what a master.... Really great flying....thanks for posting...

[@crispaolopaul5245]

magnifique moment, merci, super génial...un régal pour les yeux !

[@RTS907]

It's the most amazing RC jet I have ever seen. Awesome job!

[@MrJagerMan1]

Incredible! Great Job!

[@NgaiOlaudah]

and truly one of the MOST BEAUTIFUL MODELS I'VE EVER SEEN...

[@Blueberry954]

Now that. Is incredible. I've seen a lot of RC jets at funfly's and stuff like that but this thing just blows them away.

[@zacpitchshifter]

PERFECT LANDING. THUMBS UP

[@eddieshredder6804]

That jet is just insane. Great work

[@kkristopher7413]

sweet shirt and your friend never leaves your side. he has a hat just like yours!

[@dmonte012]

Dam!! Some of the best jet turbine flying I've seen in years.

[@bobbrown5241]

A great accomplishment! Great job flying and obviously a fantastic build!

[@daveandjennifervick8931]

Guys, great job on the plane. Totally awsume and sounds great when it goes overhead. I bet it is a blast to fly remote control.

[@unjustkatana]

I'm impressed, by the jet and the skills !

[@travisfisher5719]

This is an amazing piece of RC engineering!

[@stemplar9916]

So glad my design worked in a model which i designed in the early 40s.

[@ergbudster3333]

Holy crap! This is amaaaaaaazing.

[@ManWithBeard1990]

Even in miniature that's one of the coolest and most beautiful machines in the world.

[@flyurway]

Just about as impressive an RC landing as I've ever seen!

[@gerher9416]

Amazing! specially the landing sequence

[@VYD239]

Amazing machine and amazing flying. The landing was perfect.

[@rextorify]

smooth take off /landing... fantastic "real small-jet toys"

[@tacticusunum]

Wow, awesome! 9 years to make great job!

[@mompracem01]

Amazing flight and most amazing landing. Great pilot!

[@frankle951]

I was there, for the opening, of the Jet Master, didn't get to see Sr-71 fly, but have some pics of it, a very nice looking Bird !!!!!!!!!!!

[@lewstherin826]

There was a prototype that has a rear canopy 'ajar' with limited visibility forward. It ended up as piolet trainer. These things are incredible machines, i know I've seen them personally, in operation. This is 50s tech at its finest, the fuel cells are baffled and have gaps in them to compensate for extreme temperatures. When it heats up the fields cells seal. Initial take off uses 'gel' JP4 then refusals not long after take off. The spooks commissioned one at one point armed with 30-06 chain guns. It didn't work of course because the plane ran into the rounds. It's roll as surveillance craft was a default, armed with 11" cameras. Its top speed and real service ceiling is still top secret even though it's been decommissioned over 25 years ago.

[@tencipierluigi]

Very good flight and fantastic jet SR-71!! With compliments!!!

[@Abigsoxfan]

Absolutely, positively totally cool. Looks like a labor of love.

[@pgrimmo301]

That thing flew faster than the first aircraft I learnt to fly in myself ! Outstanding work. Would love to see some internal camera footage in the future guys !

[@coreyredd1]

Brilliant sir... Simply amazing..... Thank you for sharing

[@xMRPx]

Beautiful landing! It goes without saying that you've had many, many years of practice on other planes before attempting to fly that one. Job well done!

[@geopapas1]

The most magnificent jet RC airplane and flying I have seen!

[@Marc87GN]

Absolutely beautiful plane! It is my all time favorite plane.

[@jasonvaughn7934]

Very nice detail and great flight good job on the video guys

[@avcovardes]

Congratulation, It is very rare to see pilots taking off and landing ass well like you did!!

[@juancarlosposadaenriquez2007]

Espectacular!!!! Awesome!!! SR-71 mi favorito!!!!!!

[@manos3790]

What an amazing achievement! And it landed with total aplomb and accuracy.

[@mozartjpn137]

What a perfect landing! Just beautiful.

[@HWY80Thrash]

Incredible engineering and control - WOW!

[@t.rexxer5007]

Amazing! So realistic. I would be soooo scared of crashing but he obviously knows what he's doing. Thanks for sharing. :)

[@grahamsengineering.2532]

Looks and Sounds awesome!

[@akai454]

Oh god that machine's gorgeous , also the B1 .

[@garpikemike1]

looks and sounds great!!

[@bobmathews4557]

Dude! Awesome!!

[@fire58372001]

WOW! That thing is a screamer! You have a fine looking aircraft there.

[@chrismillyard8304]

The SR71 has to be one of the most coolest aircraft in the world, not only for it's impressive stat's but because it was hardly ever seen. I'm lucky to have seen several in operation, so it's nice to see it again. Amazing model. I'm so jealous. Good luck and please take care! God bless!

[@Tessesman]

Very nice , my father in law is a huge model plane guy. He had a workshop and built them and flew them .

[@DaGoonR]

Bravo looks and sounds awesome well done

[@BlakesWrld]

i'm adding that to the christmas wishlist

[@hunatyla]

Yeeaa! Respect Tom, great work!

[@spidernad1]

Bravo to the builder!

[@mightymouse1204]

Awesome bird and nice flight

[@ENMUGreyhoundsFB]

This is awesome!

[@kadeee1000]

Epic,,SR 71 ..Amazing job,,,well done,,,,

[@Jocc2Cs]

That is awesome!

[@offdaheez]

Damn it took 9 years to get this working right? That's some dedication right there.

[@EZRIDER327]

VERY IMPRESSIVE both the plane and the operator - SWEET

[@supermax4080]

O-M-G!! O.O Amazing!! And very good landing ;)

[@ScaleAero]

Another nice SR. Once they rotate they don't need much push. This one is super realistic in air speed to say nothing for that fabulous hypersonic cone squeal !! Wow, just a wee bit of real estate taken there. He over flew half the WP Museum property. A little further East and he'd have been over the AFB :) This is a great site for the USSMA and WJM. Perhaps some day we can see the FAI F4C there.

[@charliehu2010]

its awesome man !

[@locomotize]

Thats amazing............simply amazing

[@ebach007]

Awesome fly -by @ 7:00!!! nice job man!

[@ApricotData474]

THAT IS SOOOO COOL. THAT IS MY DREAM NOW!!
