P-51 The Galloping Ghost @ Warbirds over Oberhausen

[@JohnSmith-yn8pl]

I go back & watch this video at least 3-4 times a year. Never heard a better sounding airplane. Thanks for posting.

[@MrFelixdodd]

a MOKI beater and probably the finest RC Plane in the world today. absolutely fantastic!

[@spore5056]

What a terrific way to remember and memorialize Mr. Leeward and his gleaming Galloping Ghost. The engine in this plane has a very aggressive screaming sound, and the pilot absolutely flew the hell out of it. Thank you, Horst!

[@RCScaleAirplanes]

Thank you Bill, for your kind comment. This is the older version of the *GHOST* with a 3 cyl. engine. The new one now has 4 cyl. and sound also very cool. btw. this video was done on my previous YT channel. So I'm the same person here and on RCSA. Best regards, Horst

[@TonyHarris99]

As much as I love the sound of a radial engine THIS Girl just knocks my socks off! "How Sweet It Is"! What a great model, what a great tribute, It's people like you who make the Brotherhood of RC model airplane flying such a wonderful experience.

[@EUK007]

The sounds and the manouvers is like a real P-51. What a lovely plane :-)

[@Teesquared00]

The sound makes me weak in the knees and my eyes water. What an aircraft. What a thrill it must be to pilot.

[@DHC8100]

WOW, I think I have watched/listened to this video 100's of times and I will never tire of that sound! Has to be one of the best sounding RC planes ever! What a fantastic plane and a very fitting tribute to all those who were lost. Great job and beautiful plane, and hope to see the Ghost flying for many years to come.

[@GodhelperDK]

No wonder the pilot is having a giant smile on His lips Awesome sound, plane and flying!!!!!

[@NateKennison]

I would never get tired of listening to that. It's like music. That's fantastic.

[@Entity_BlackRed777]

This RC Galloping Ghost sounds way cooler than the newer ones now!!!! KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!!!

[@MFGKirchdorf]

Thanks! 👍 btw. You will find many new videos on my other channel ... kzbin.info

@@MFGKirchdorf THANKS!!!!

[@72Z15SS]

That is by far one of the best sounding R/C Model engines I have ever heard. Even the Moki radials only come close...

[@TERYDOTCOM]

this is the best r/c film on the net. the machine, the engine SOUND and pilot skill is truly awesome...... it actually sounds better than a real RR Merlin! i especially liked the crossed control crosswind slip while landing. incredible

[@MultiLunasea]

The sound of that engine makes the hair on the back of my neck stand up ! It is also an awesome looking airplane. LOVE IT !

[@ramoh74]

Und immer und immer und immer....kann nicht aufhören zu gucken! Brauche wirklich eine Therapie! Der Sound?? Einfach nicht von dieser Welt!

[@c0neyisland]

Now that brought tears to my eyes! And the sound!! I love aviation and I fly models myself. Your Galloping Ghost is a very fitting tribute to Jimmy Leeward and the unfortunate spectators killed in that crash. Long may she fly!

[@MrObsche]

Gratuliere zu diesem Flug. Perfekt geflogen und der Sound ist vom allerfeinsten! Super!

[@jpfo1776]

Totally thrilling - and that sound ....... well - positively orgasmic!!! A thing of beauty. Construction must be real strong as I imagine some hefty "G's" going through those wing roots. Kudos to build and pilot.

[@dean2287]

I could listen to that all day. Great build, love it. Nice flying.

[@adrianlarkins7259]

That engine is beyond fantastic. It is true realism in miniature. Gone is the high pitched pop pop platter platter and in comes a model that brings realism to a level of a scale modelers dream. We have the Moki. Now we have the "in line" equivalent. Fabulous. I pray the model will not meet the same fate as its' full size sister.

[@rcmotomike]

One Word. Incredible. Well done. Thank you for sharing such a fantastic aircraft and tribute to Jimmy Leeward.

[@tommygola]

That is one awesome plane.. Unbelievable. Beautifully flown and well shot on video. Thanks for posting!

[@zachboyd4749]

I was there that dark day at Stead Field in 2011, and it's good to see the Ghost in the air in another form.

[@MFGKirchdorf]

Thank you Dave. This version found a place in the hanger for now. The new version of the "Ghost" hast a 4 cylinder Kolm engine and sounds just awesome. A new video will be uploaded soon on my other channel "RcScaleAirplanes". Stay tuned. Best regards, Horst

[@grahamlwilson]

WOW! Sound is fantastic, flying is great. What a terrific model. Thanks for sharing this.

[@zvent1]

Words can't describe how that sound makes me feel! Great flying!!

[@welshpete12]

Looks so real in the air ! I'm glad you did not put music over the sound of that engine , it sounds just great !

[@alexanderpaterson4064]

That was Awesome the plain the sound it made ..The flying too ...Just Awesome great video too more of the same please

[@davidgibson1524]

WOW! That is one fast model!!! beautiful flying and video!

[@microdon2]

Simply awesome. This is THE most fantastic-sounding engine I've ever heard. And in a gorgeous plane. Nicely done.

[@slimquattro]

You've done it again, WOW, that is the best sounding rc plane I have ever heard. I want all of my planes to sound just like that. Fantastic looking plane and VERY well flown. Brilliant.

[@HarryJohnson1991]

bloody hell thats the most brutal sounding RC plane ive ever heard, sounds absolutely unreal! RC planes normally sound like lawn mowers at the best of times but this is just awesome!

[@EmilioAtienza]

Magnífico "Cadillac del cielo", y magnífico pilotaje. Enhorabuena. Emilio Atienza (Granada, Spain)

[@boberitobroberto2654]

I got goose bumps from watching this one!!! The sounds is just staggering

[@ericschroeder6274]

watching in 2021! never gets old! best sounding rc!

[@hoppinonabronzeleg]

That is amazing, what a beast, that thing has so much power, I'll bet you have a metal prop!!

[@MFGKirchdorf]

@Lionforever1860 Das war vom Sound her das geilste Modell was ich je zu Ohren bekam. Die Abendstimmung mit den Wolken war ein fantastischer Hintergrund. Einfach traumhaft.

[@marty12004]

Absolutely stunning sound, Beautiful model!

[@BlackRedsPlaneSpottingChannel]

What's top speed of this?! If you still active, that is.

[@TERYDOTCOM]

dies ist die beste r / c Film auf dem Netz. die Maschine ist der Motor SOUND und Pilotenkönnen wirklich genial ...... Es klingt tatsächlich besser als ein echter RR Merlin! Besonders mochte ich die gekreuzten Kontrolle Seitenwind Schlupf bei der Landung. unglaublich

[@MFGKirchdorf]

Many thanks Jim. Good to know that you like it.

[@cruddbucket]

HOLY COW BATMAN! that thing sounds so awesome it gave me shivers down my spine. And the P-51 has always been my favorite fixed wing of all time :D cheers!!!

[@petyahawk]

No words can describe !!! AWESOME !!! FANTASTIC !!! DELIRIOUS !!! The most FANTASTIC rc engine music I heard in 22 years of model airplanes. Poor wretches who have jets and Turbine!

[@jesselo1969]

THANK YOU FOR SHARING!!! THAT IS MY #1 VIDEO ON KZbin!!

[@elviocorna]

Complimenti per il video, il p 51 rimarra uno dei più straordinari aerei di sempre. e anche il pilota ha dimostrato tanta bravura

[@TheSwimracer]

Rip to jimmy who lost his life doing what he loved Friday september 16 2011 at the reno airraces. Jimmy was the pilot of this aircraft RIP

[@bohartzapprentice2574]

That sound at 1:48 is just cool as hell!!!!

[@tommis1985]

This is the best model plane engine I've ever heard!

[@MFGKirchdorf]

@curtite Thank you very much for your detailed comment. There was a heavy x-wind during the whole flight. That's why Otto had to do the slip on approach.

[@Ripstop_pilot]

that engine note is spot on! awesome!

[@curtite]

What a power house. Enjoyed them tight close shots during them break turns. Exciting to see how the plane rolls in for a fly by. Like how little time is wasted for a landing by slipping the airship in like a bush pilot. :-))

[@AchimReinhardt1]

Was für ein Sound und was für ein Flug :-) Klasse!

watching in 2020! awesome plane!

[@JohnSmith-yn8pl]

One of my favorite videos ! !

[@MFGKirchdorf]

@PlaneVideoArt Many thanks to you my friend. I was lucky to have such a beautiful sky at that moment. I think the heavy wind made the sound even better ... and as you could hear, my new zoom microphone works very good as well. B.Regards Horst

[@BundymaniaReviews]

Bei dem Sound kommt Freude auf ! :-)))

[@microdon2]

Now THAT is how an RC warbird engine should sound! Hell - that's how a REAL warbird's engine should sound! Simply amazing.

[@GlideYNRG]

Bloody awesome bit of engineering . Gives a man goosebumps.

[@ColeAviation]

@RCScaleAirplanes You know, I didn't realize this plane was going to be at Joe Nall this year. I am so glad I got to see this bad boy up close. :-) It was such an Honor to meet these guys. Was one of the guys You? Because I met a guy there named Horst. Check out my video of it at Joe Nall. :-) It was the talk of the show.

[@xtremecaliber]

Wow what an amazing machine! awesome engine and some damn good pilot skills.

[@Regie57]

Outstanding RC ....just an outstanding looking plane...well done

[@guerrillaradio9953]

Now, Kolm just needs to finally make what we REALLY all want: a supercharged, DOHC, 48-valve V12 which spits flames!

[@MFGKirchdorf]

@PC9JEFF it's a 3 cylinder 4 stroke 200ccm from Kolm Engines (see updated video description) After this weekend some other videos will follow here on KZbin. The Warbirdmeeting ends Sunday Jund 26th

[@Entity_BlackRed777]

This one sounds better than the one currently!! (I wish you can fly this model again, if you still have it!)

[@spore5056]

What a great tribute to a beautiful, but tragic racing Mustang. Lovely sound .. sweet flying .. My thanks for this very entertaining video, Horst.

[@telemasterable]

The reason people this video sounds so good is because there is sound added to it.

[@blairknight7793]

I had to watch the video 3 times! That has sexiest exhaust note I've ever heard and that's exactly how you fly a warbird, get on it and don't lift off for nothing! Pay attention electric guys, this is what a warbird should sound like

[@marcot401]

Do you have more video you can up load please? Do you have any more pics on how you built this dream? Wow I am so impressed on the clean detail and the lights, landing gear and the sounds are amazing how it powers its way to the heavens then gracefully glides in to a dive. I would like to tell you are an awesome top gun of a pilot. Thank you for your videos they are a joy to watch.

[@MFGKirchdorf]

Many thanks !!! The top speed is around 254 km/h (156 mph)

[@wg1997fly]

Holy crap. Beautiful plane and engine!

[@sacko79]

Impressive aircraft and flying...great sound...

[@MFGKirchdorf]

@mreid08 Thank you Mike. The plane is a modified stock Mustang P-51 and (I think) the only one on earth. . I you want one ... you will have a lot of work to do over the next winter :) . Greetings from Germany Horst

[@MFGKirchdorf]

@HuskyMaxx ... no trim tabs on this plane but you're right. Even on rc planes the mechanic should be checked from time to time. Thanks for your tip !!!

[@Crazyrob100]

jawoll, der hammer, endlich live sehen wolllen !!!

[@ktmlifer]

Great video in memorial to Jimmy Leeward who lost his life in the real Ghost at Reno. I get chills and remember Jimmy every time i watch it. Suggest you edit with a credit at the end in his memory.

[@MFGKirchdorf]

Thank you very much for your great comment which I really appreciate. For the engine have a look into the video description (with link to the engine manufacturer). btw. the propeller was cutted to give an extra sound (ツ)

[@markjessurun1294]

The GALLOPING GHOST was the fastest NORTH AMERICAN P-51D War bird Race Airplane !! (532mph)

[@MFGKirchdorf]

@kukikunyuk Thank you very much !!! You are right ... it looks like it needs more right trust ... BUT ... it was a heavy x-wind that evening and that made it looking like a wrong engine position. Believe me. The setup is ok :)

[@MFGKirchdorf]

@PatBALEX it's a 3 cylinder 4 stroke 200ccm from Kolm Engines (see updated video description)

[@josegalilea]

ESTE SI QUE TIENE UN Packard V!!!! DE VERDAD EN LA FORMA QUE SUENA!!! MUY BUENO!!

[@Mike-01234]

It's my understanding the Kolm 4 cylinder engine is designed that it's timing 270 degrees which makes the sound like it does.

[@bladerunner469]

Simply BEAUTIFUL!!!!!

[@MFGKirchdorf]

Many thanks for the info TMM73 ... Much appreciated !!!
