SOUNDS SO GOOD! GIANT 1:3 scale YMF-5 Waco biplanes | 250cc radials | Southern Model Show 2022
The yellow Waco built and flown by Greg was built from a Barth kit (Germany) and the other Waco was built from an American AMR kit at the same scale. They weigh 23kg and the 29kg respectively and both are powered by Blackstar 250cc 5 cylinder 4 stroke radials from Tomahawk Aviation throwing 32x16 propellors. Both Wacos use Futaba radio with Powerbox sbus systems for guidance.
Greg shared with me afterwards that both these aircraft were built by fellow aero-modellers that had passed away recently. Greg and his friend acquired the biplanes and finished them off. This was the first public tribute flight to those aero-modellers.

Yep...awesome sound!

[@spenzee1722]

Hey everyone hope you're all doing great, Hi from 🇿🇦

[@remotecontrolledmedia]

What a nice Sound 😍

[@airhammer6203]

Wow, they're both so beautiful and sound awesome!! My absolute favorite biplane. The landings were identical!! Both pilots are great wind fighters. I keep waiting for a nice 1.2m foam version. Even Dynam is hard to find these days. Nice video. AirHammer out!!

[@melissasmess2773]

Lovely, thanks!

[@roadsweeper1]

Beautiful flight. Love the sound of those larger CC radials!! Although not as nice a sound as a Moki, they've pretty much nailed it. Lovely crosswind landing too, I'm not sure how much was camera angle and how much was actual crosswind, but yeah, clearly winds weren't light lol, although the yellow looks like it broke a wheel cover on landing. Nothing that cant be fixed with a bit of quick drying epoxy :)

Time to practice landing on the sim.

[@EssentialRC]

Expert at home in his bedroom 🤣

[@patrickroos739]

Amazing how the pilots could see them, especially the white one when flying miles away...

[@leozengy]

So beautiful! also did he fly two aircraft at once!?

[@EssentialRC]

Eh, no

[@derrickgreen9020]

They look like heavy beasts! Great filming on a beautiful day but gusty?

[@EssentialRC]
