Great Planes Fokker Dr1 60 size RC - The Fokker Scourge
This WWI beauty has an electric setup. Eflite 60 motor. 6 cell 5000 mah lipo and 15x8 wood prop. John, the builder and pilot highly recommends installing wooden skids on the bottom edge of the lower wing to prevent scratching on landings.

RC Phoenix Spitfire maiden flight with .52 four stroke.
มุมมอง 23K12 ปีที่แล้ว
Model: British Supermarine Spitfire by Phoenix Models Magnum .52 four stroke with 12x6 prop The four stroke sounds great on this bird but you already knew that about warbirds in general. Surprisingly, the engine pulls it nicely. But it's not a screamer. The larger prop makes landing very manageable. The Spitfire is known for tip stalling.

Werner Voss could STALL hold the nose up in mid flight; turning with rudder, spraying bullets at all comers !
I recently got a magnum 52 and I was wondering if it had enough power for something like that but obviously it has plenty for a 40 size RC plane! Thanks
I've got a VQ P51 Tuskegee edition arf that I might put it in!
I think you'll find a 52 magnum 4 stroke works fine. It won't be a screamer, but it's enough power to really enjoy the airplane. I think you'll find that the 4 stroke you could swing a bigger prop and will make the airplane perform well on climb outs and maneuvers.
Hello, can I ask you some questions??
⭐⭐⭐⭐
Nice flight but you defo need to use the flaps on that sucker to slow it down for landings 👍 I have the V2 with a Saito FA82B as yet unflown
Great video, congratulations, but...this model should wear a glow 4 strokes engine.......
The engine sounds great, beautiful flight, nice landing...nice video, congratulations!
Thank you!
I was holding my breath until you stopped 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🍿🍿🍿 Awesome flight , it was a thrill with a happy landing.

Hi Sir.. can i get the plan? any recommendation? planning to put 4S only.
I'm sorry I don't have plans for the d r 1 1 60 size. I'm afraid a fourstroke would be a little bit too small. I'm sure it will fly but it will be slow and you won't be able to do much aerobatics
@@gmccord1970 ahhh too bad.. Dying for this red baron.. In Malaysia no one is willing to DIY and hobbyking has discontinued.

Nice plane great sounds
Oh, my The Red Baron

There's a full moon in the sign of Scorpio right now at its apex, and so it happens I find this video. 🐻
Very good!
Mine had the same motor now it has a super tiger 61. Perfect for it
how do you get the battery in and out.. any pics welcome just building mine from new old stock arf purchase
GREAT FUN
I have one of these that I picked up used. I am curious where you put the battery?
Beautiful simply amazing
I saw on one of the flying fields a camera guy had sights that are mounted where usually the flash is hooked up. So whenever he loses the plane he looks through the sights, w a on off red dot. ***the rudder too sensitive. Good job on the build.
I love this plane...and i built my own foamy with 6s and 16x12 prop..nice to watch him flying but it tend to nose down during landing...watch my video if you have free time..haha
It’s so cool i love how he can make the baron move his head back and forth amazing!
In mine, I have an AXI 4130/20, 70amp esc, 5500 6S lipo, 18x10 Prop. Flies extremely well. Been flying it since 2002. Originally used to fly it with nicads... ugh. Pulls 28 amps at WOT. Very easy, and a blast to fly. You just have to realize that it's a very draggy plane, and does not have the sharpest reflexes; you just have to stay ahead of it. 10 lb flying weight. Have ailerons set up as flaperons to slow it for landings; as if it needs to be slowed down. ; ) Mix rudder to ailerons for coordinated turns.

Hello, Jim. Can you describe where your battery is in the plane and how you made it? I’d much appreciate it. Pics would be terrific. I have the plane but am stuck as to how to proceed with the battery. Thank you.
I got to ride the sled for my 8th birthday, so fun!
what servos are you using @380PPK?
I use servos from Hobbypartz.com. They have some excellent reliable servos at a fraction of the cost of other servos. But you don't need fancy high torque servos. Just some standard digital servos will do just fine.

I been looking at that new Phoenix Models 1/8 Corsair. How is that Magnum .52 ? Is she easy to tune and start ? I'm just getting back into glow . :>)
hey there the Magnum 52 four stroke is a good engine for this claim it's easy to turn and it's very reliable in my opinion I've not had it had any problems with it. no I won't be a screamer in the Spitfire or I should say your Corsair but it'll truck well in the sky and will be very manageable on Landing
Those engines have bad valve leakage like crazy i have 9 and all leak
What a horrible cowling paint job in some goofy white scheme, not even camo. completely ruins the looks of the Spitfire.
Yeah, they all mostly like that, its rare to find it perfect unless its a goofy FOAMIE! LOL
This is a wonderful size for a WWI fighter. I wish that there were a good ARF being put out for it now. Despite some people's liking of electric power, this needs a .90 4-stroke to sound like an aircraft. And I prefer cloth covering, sealed.
How did the Spitfire balance with the .52? Did you add any ballast weight?I'm thinking about putting an ASP.61 in one of these.
+Dan P The plane balanced very well with the .52. The only thing I did was move the battery pack as far forward as possible as I can remember. A .61 four stroke should work well too. If the .61 is a two stroke, that will be too much in both power and weight.
+380PPK Thank you. I should have been clear. It was a 2 stroke I was asking about. However I also have a Saito 56 which should work well in this plane from what you have said. Thank you.
Awesome plane love the electric set up. Any Hot tips on setting up and running electric. I just purchase a new old stock, and have no interest in running fuel or gas. Thanks Steve
Rudder is your freind
Stephen Webber Yeah it is! It's amazing how so many pilots simply refuse to use it. The rudder is a valuable and needed control service. LOL!
I had one of these years back when it was new to the market. I remember when I told several people at the flying field that I was going to get one, without personal experience, most scoffed and said they where terribly difficult planes to deal with. I bought one anyways and fitted mine with a saito .82 They couldn't have been more wrong about this plane and everyone loved it! I can honestly say in my 21 years of RC, it was the most impressive, fun and one of the easiest flying planes I ever owned. Ground maneuvering was a little tricky at first, but that wasn't hard to adapt to either. Had a Futaba 9C with 25% rudder/aileron mix and flew it at 3 quarters throttle most of the time. Unfortunately I had a loose aileron servo wire that caused a cart wheel on take off one day, destroying two of the wings so I sold it for parts. I regret not fixing the plane to this day. Thanks for the video, brought back great memories!
You are very welcome! Glad you enjoyed it. There is something very cool about the Dr1 that everyone can enjoy from 3D pilots to warbird enthusiasts. On the one hand, it was a floater that anyone with reasonable stick time could fly and on the other hand, it acted sort of 3Dish in the air because it was so acrobatic - especially with the climb rate and looping. There was nothing like the Dr1.
Nice plane. Great flying! Would you have any pictures posted (RC Groups / RC Universe?) regarding how you made and installed the wooden wing skids?
Yes Miracle, I can appreciate the frustration. Great Planes had the .60 size ARF as in this video but it was discontinued. Hobbyking as far as I know only offers a foamy park flyer. I've looked long and hard on the internet and I can only find glow powered ARF's that are cheap quality from no name Chinese manufacturers. I think the only alternative is to find a high quality kit from Proctor Enterprise or VK models. Thanks for the nice comment! Happy Flyin'!
il était bourré, le mec qui filmait?A par ça l'avion est bien.
