Mini Super 50th anniversary
มุมมอง 2832 ปีที่แล้ว
This October it will be 50 years since my dad gave me a Keil Kraft Mini Super kit for a birthday present. To celebrate that I took it down from the garage ceiling, gave it new rubber bands and took it to the field. Originally the model was said to need two or three channels: engine, rudder and maybe also an elevator. Me and my dad built it for three channels. Later I added ailerons, steerable n...

@@chrisgaalen Thanks Chris, this is a very beautiful model.
@@birgiredwald Thanks, the credits go to my father who build it in 1977. Last year i put it back to life with new motor (Roto85fs) and electronics. Now it flies beautifull.😀
I will do,, tomorrow, cause i reached my max upload today.😁
Wiring and attachmentpoints bit overdone, out of scale.
Yes, I agree. I was worried about the strength. The threads are carrying a considerable pull to hold the wings in place and I wanted to be sure the the fastenings would hold. A suggestion for a better solution is welcomed.
Steelwire and bolt on to the wingspar will do the job. Have a 3,15m wingspan Proctor Antic 💪🤟.@@birgiredwald
@@chrisgaalen Thanks Chris. Could you post a picture of this?
@birgiredwald Yes but how?
@@chrisgaalen My email is on my website: flugmodel.weebly.com/ You could also put it on YT and post a link here 🙂
Does it fly well?
Well, maybe not the easyest but... th-cam.com/video/9MyTwPDC4FM/w-d-xo.htmlsi=tAooXWY-O7trKsN7

Cheer~~~each of the bars or wire rods connecting the center of a wheel to its outer edge.😊
Thanks Jason Can you explain your comment a little bit more. As you may have noticed English is not my first language and I'm not getting this. B.
Wow! Nice airplane. Love to see it fly.
Thank you, Scott I hoped to be able to fly it this summer, but the weather here in the North Atlantic has been very rainy and windy all summer. There are some old flying video on my channel though: th-cam.com/video/9MyTwPDC4FM/w-d-xo.html B.
Did Paul survive?
Well, he’s been a bit silence ever since 🙂
@@birgiredwald Well, I'm sure he had to go change his shorts.
All sorts of things looked wrong with that flight. C of G, control surfaces sticking, underpowered? I guess it was a maiden? I’d have landed that thing no sooner than it took off, I have a feeling if we could of seen you on the sticks you were fighting it the moment you opened the throttle.
Thanks for the comment Dean, it’s very encouraging. Once I managed to take off and land without ruining anything. Please take a look: th-cam.com/video/Fw7wuoo2Nro/w-d-xo.htmlsi=neGcS1INzUhWWpgw B.
Congratulations, a beautiful model with some lovely practical scale details, hopefully you will get enough control authority without the wing warping. I’m sure it could be added later if required. Top work. 👍
Thanks Nick Hopefully it'll get some days of good weather to practice this summer. B.
It wouldn't have stopped the elevator horn breaking but that plane would have been a hell of a lot easier to fly with roll and pitch gyros. Most ordinary flyers think gyros are "cheating" - then they go to model airshows and marvel at show pilots - who use gyros! Gyros don't fly the plane for you but they certainly smooth things out. Interesting video. Hope you rebuild.
Thanks for the comment. I think I will give this idea some thought. Any recomended brand? The rebild is almost done 🙂 B
How on earth did I fly for the past 48 years without a gyro?

@@sideshowbob5237 Thanks
Bummer!
@@BillKisel 😊
I had the Sig Hog Bipe that I loved, it flew great like it was on rails. Mine was covered in the AZ flag markings. I should have never sold it!
😉👍
That horn broke in the crash. You were too slow and stalled.
😄
You're the slow one here....
Opps
😄
Funny story, friend pulled and old plane. His control horns and servo arm were breaking! Brittle as hell!
This one was built in 2015, but it has had a few "heavy" landings before :-)
😮😮😮😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
Is this a kit you can buy or did you scratch build it. Fantastic
Thanks for the comment, Denny The model is a scratch build. Built by a David Boddington plan. The plan can be bought at: adhpublishing.com/shop/store/products/bleriot-xi-plan-mf257/ Kveðja, Birgir
Very nice job !!!
Thanks 🙂
Excellent!
Many thanks!
Hej mycket fin model,jag håller själv på att bygga en bleriot och ser fram emot våren. Hälsningar martin 😊
Tack för kommentaren Martin I would love to hear more about the build. Are you building a kit or are you building from a blueprint? Will you be using a glow engine or an electric? You can find my email address on the front page of my website: flugmodel.weebly.com Hälsningar, Birgir
Like magic a pilot apears😂
😊
This is the greatest thing I've seen today.
Thank you very much :-)
Bonjour quel est la marque de la maquette ?AMATI ou autre marque. Merci
Hello Christoph and thank you for the question. The model is built by a plan made by David Boddington. That plan can still be bought from adhpublishing.com/shop/store/products/bleriot-xi-plan-mf257/ More information can be found at my website flugmodel.weebly.com B
Wow..cog please?
Hi and thanks for the question. The CoG is about 14 cm from the LE edge which is about 4.5 cm behind the spot suggested by D. Boddington, the designer. I now have 425 gr. of lead up front. Even though the CoG seems to be a little aft the strange thing is that the model needs a little up elevator. Remember the split elevator has a large moving area. Happy flying B. forums.modelflying.co.uk/sites/3/images/member_albums/126843/801851.jpg
I'm impressed thank you
Thanks :-)

Is cadete engine 60?
Thanks for the question Antonio This is a 48” span Keil Kraft, Mini Super, a smaller version of super 60 that David Boddington made in the sixties 😊. It has a ASP 21A engine today. B.
Really good! 💪
Pozdravujem Vas, velmi pekny model. Viete mi zaslat kontakt na plan alebo stavebnicu
Thanks Marián The plans can be bought from: adhpublishing.com/shop/store/products/bleriot-xi-plan-mf257/ You can also find some more pictures on my web flugmodel.weebly.com/smiacuteethin3.html The web is in Icelandic but Google translate can be of a great help, that is if you do not read Icelandic 😊 B
If you please sir, how much forward ballest and engine type and displacement are you currently using?
Thanks for your question. The model has a SC30FS engine and 425 gr. of lead up front. The CoG is at 13 cm from the leading edge. Less ballast and a bigger engine might be an option worth considering. :-) B.
Шикарная копия RC - модели !🐴🍺👍
Thanks 😊
Bueno calallo bueno
Gracias 😊
Nice job of reproduction, a wooden propeller would be better, but you would have to add weight. And you've already put in plenty. In mine I put the ailerons to have more control in flight, since distortion is impossible on small wings. I have to test it again, since my os 5cc 4-stroke is small and does not take off.🖐
Thanks for the comment. I agree on the wooden propellar. I have a Turnigy 10x4 wooden proppeller ready but have been using a Robbe 10x5 plastic one while building currage and competence. The SC 30 FS engine has marginal power similar to your OS. I can see in one of your videos that you have been using a 10x5 wooden prop and a plastic one also. How do they compare? B
@@birgiredwald Unfortunately I had to replace the engine with a 6.5cc 4 stroke as it couldn't take off. I have yet to test it. th-cam.com/video/c7vMluJFCz8/w-d-xo.html
It has also crossed my mind to do so 🙂. I'm looking forward to a video of that test.
wow, the RC plane is great... it's here, friends, don't forget to visit too
Thanks 🙂
wow!
Cool technology, thanx! I remembered.
Very beautiful bird!
Endless winter )))
When in Iceland....
@@birgiredwald Wonderful country!
Nice weather )))
The build took almost a year 👍
@@birgiredwald Yes, I watch your videos and am very impressed with the resulting model. Very beautiful!
Beautiful airplane.
Thanks Larry
Awesome video! I am not sure if I want to try and make my own wheels like you did or just buy them. Will have to think about that. 🙂 Anyways, thanks for the video.
Thanks. You should definitely make your own wheels. It is fun and not so difficult.
Great video! I think I have watched all your Bleriot videos. I just started building similar size Bleriot, and I find your videos very helpful.
Thanks for your comment. I look forward to see some build videos on your channel. 👍
I did as you suggested,and looked at more videos of this super model ! As one Aeromodeller to another,I salute you ! Spiffing !
Thank you very much! :-)
@@birgiredwald No,I thank you,gives me sumthin to aspire to ! How do you find that little 30,FS ? One of mine performs well,the other, sadly does not ? Both new ? Well,back then, can't get'em now. A 'Q',what are you currently building ? As I turn up at the strip with many different models,my pal said ,'Norm,how many kite's do you have ?',I said I really don't know ??? So one day I went from room to room counting them,the answer = 57 ! That's not including the garage or loft ! I may require therapy,I know that,but for now I'm content.Just wish the wind would drop . Happy Landins Amigo !
The SC30FS got stronger as I ran it in but I haven’t started it for some time now. Currently I’m not building anything. I have come to the conclusion that my flying skills are lacking a lot behind my building skills so this summer I will try to improve my flying skills. I have a lot fewer models, but you can see them at my website flugmodel.weebly.com Some of them have of course passed away :-)
@@birgiredwald Hi ! Look up Nice flight from the HOEA model flying Club, along with One snowy day,(same place in the snow).Long before drone's were about I took these aerial vids. The model was just a glider,cost me £5,I cut the front off and fitted an OS 10.it performs well. I hope you find and enjoy the film's. With your skill your workbench should be in continual use ! Pick a nice Parasol Monoplane next,I always liked that set up. Happy Landins.
Bloody good ! Nice work Sir !.
Thanks, Norman If you would like to see more of this model there is a playlist at: th-cam.com/play/PLtQRC43nU2v4cHNDJ7QpRCMgJ68pmUSTt.html B
@@birgiredwald Thank you.I shall enjoy looking at the extra footage.It really is a fine model built to a very high standard.I have a couple of 30 four-stroke engine's ( I have no interest in electric powered model's,they might be all the rage and fashionable,but not for me !),an S C and the lookalike ASP one,same thing really.Engines are increasingly difficult to come by, luckily over the year's I've managed to accumulate quite a collection ! Yet still people come over to enjoy the aroma from my diesel fuel ! Lol. Happy Landins Amigo !
Fantastic David charch structure kipit up 👌👍
Thanks, more videos of this model can be seen at: th-cam.com/play/PLtQRC43nU2v4cHNDJ7QpRCMgJ68pmUSTt.html
Beautiful craftsmanship! Thank God for ARFs or I would never be able to fly balsa. I have one stick build laser cut Fokker Eindecker kit that may or may not ever get built.
Thanks for your remarks. Enjoy building. 😊
Beautiful workmanship. I hope the Bleriot is safely on display today.
Thanks - yes, it's hanging in the ceiling of my garage, waiting for spring to come :-)
Very nice, is there anyway to turn it into a true warp wing using rc equipment?
Thanks Douglas Well, yes, I would think so. The wings on this model are flexible enough to accept the warping but the mechanics needed to implement it are most likely a bit more complicated than one would think in the beginning. Mr. Boddington did not implement wing warping in his plans and I doubt that it would help flying the model. However, the challenge to try it is very compelling. :-) B.
