    Came across this video just few weeks ago. I keep watching it. not many jet pilots can bring such an unstable aircraft full of fuel seconds after take off and land it down wind so perfectly and exactly on the spot. Emergency landing perfecto. I am a very proud father and number one fan of Ali. Well done son.

    This has to be the most beautiful jet model plane I've seen. It even sounds exactly like the real thing, I remember that distinctive sound from my childhood!

    I've always considered this Aircraft to be one of those that was out there on the edge for it's day. I grew up when these things were still in the US Air Force Inventory and still flying. Today, they are long since remembered for what they were, extremely fast and space aged for their day. This model is absolutely gorgeous! It's superb in every detail, right down to the paint job and markings. I keep coming back to this video, time and time again and watching it. It makes me think of the real thing, right down to the screaming sound they used to make when performing a high speed pass at full afterburner. That's how beautifully built and flown this aircraft is.....Simply amazing craftsmanship and flying. I would have to say that this is one of the premier flights in the realm of RC coverage. My hats off to the builder and pilot of this bird, as well as the cameraman for some awesome coverage of the flight. Simply an enjoyable thing to watch and one that brings back memories of a time long ago during the golden age of Century Jet Aviation.

      My dad, who has since passed away, had the privilege of flying the F104 in the early days of Vietnam. I listed to him tell stories my entire life about the “lawn dart”, and how it felt to be in control of “the missile with a man in it”. One of the coolest stories he told me was when he was the last aircraft to take off of a flight of 10, and the first one on target, because it was that fast. He said lighting the afterburner felt like driving a car and getting rear-ended by a tractor trailer. Lucky, lucky man he was. Love the F104.

    I recall standing at the end of the runway (now referred to as "Baden Airpark") in Baden Sölingen in maybe 1979, watching 104s come in to land. Even at idle, the noise from the J79 was utterly deafening.
    This is one impressive model, and the pilot has some serious skills.

    • @Lhenry-pf5zn

      I grew up with the RCAF in Baden-Solingen, my father flying F-86 Sabres there in the 1950s and again with the CF-104s in the 1960s. Dad was one of the first RCAF 'Legend" instructors on the CF-104 in 1961, he trained a lot of pilots in Canada at Cold Lake and at Baden. Great memories!

    This is the best rc jet video I have ever seen. It has it all in spades - perfect model, perfect pilot and perfectly shot video. An rc pilot who asks themself "would the real thing fly this way?" will floor an audience.

    So many times, you see expensive RC jets flown (and crashed) by people who can barely handle the thing. It's nice to see someone who has mastered their RC aircraft and do some impressive flying with it. Both landings where absolutely wonderful...

      Well, I guess Ali is arguably one of, if not the best scale RC pilot in the world right now, particularly of gas turbine powered models. I'll never forget seeing him do a show-line long low, slow roll in a big A10 at Cosford, UK. However he IS human and I've seen a video of him losing a beautiful Hawker Hunter, though that may have been a radio problem. It's my excuse when I 'dumb thumb' :)

      Yep that flare on 1st landing was ideal. Cannot be an easy model to fly, let alone land it, with those little wings and the high airspeed req'd just to keep it in the air

  • @adakwhidbey9418
    @adakwhidbey9418 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Beautiful aircraft and an awesome display of airmanship flying it! I've flown aerobatic aircraft and I can attest that it is much easier to fly from the cockpit than from what flight simulators call "tower view" or what you RC folks do when flying with a controller from fixed position on the ground. My father was a 28 year USAF pilot, starting with the P-38 in WWII and extending to the F-104 in his last assignment in Germany in the late 50's. He would have got a kick out of this video!

I thought that it was literally the coolest aircraft ever made. When I was a young I love this aircraft I loved just watching it in the movies. I love the f-104, And I think it's cool that this individual has an RC aircraft of a f-104, I love it. Thank you very much for showing this video.

    • @DrHarryT
      @DrHarryT 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I saw that, during the roll when the wings were vertical he lost altitude and almost hit the ground. Some rudder action would helped to avoid that but would be hard to process accurately using handset controls and no time forgiveness. I wonder how much that aircraft costs U.S. dollars?

    • @lundrat
      @lundrat 7 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      In the real aircraft there was very little use of the rudder and if the dynamics on the RC model were 100% accurate it would be impossible to fly. That being said, it looks very good and the pilot/operator was doing a great job

  • @tonyduncan9852

    What a wonderful model, and how wonderfully it flies. That low-level inverted manoeuvre was truly astonishing.
    I attempted to make the same scale model as a thirteen year old in 1957, but my younger brother put paid to it by entering the room and throwing himself over an easy chair on which I had just placed across its arms the finished wings and centre section.
    I went on to be an aeroengineer, my brother an astrologer.
    I may have some sort of bias, but this is the best model and performance I have ever seen. Good camera work, too. :)

    • @45CaliberCure
      @45CaliberCure 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Lol. My older brother "put paid" to nearly all of my models when we were kids. Usually found the remnants of them and firecracker bits scattered in the back yard. I didn't find it nearly as amusing back then, but time has changed my perspective.

    I've never seen flying like this. The F-104 doesn't look like it would fly on paper with it's short wings and negative dihedral. The designer sure proved to the world that with enough power it would not only fly, but fly very well. This RC model proves this. Several foreign countries flew this unusual aircraft including West Germany. The actual aircraft had razor thin leading edges on the wings. Special covers were attached to them so that service crews wouldn't get injured. This model is so very authentic in its function and appearance. The aluminum surface panels accurately vary in their finish and the landing gear functions as if it were the full sized aircraft. This was a classic video. Thanks for sharing it.

    That's some good flying! I am also reminded of Leonardo DiCaprio playing Howard Hughes, when filming the aviation scene in whatever movie he was making. The airspeed was impossible to guage visually, due to the lack of clouds. This plane hauls ass, and with all of the clouds, you can see it.

    I my opinion this is one the most exciting rc model flight display I've seen! even though I think the pilot busted his safety limit a little bit on that roll at 2:23.
    the noise and speed and scale is just great and flown in a very exciting way! great job!

    Those stall easily due to small wing area, takes real skill to fly those. Great flying, impressive...

    never would of believed it, a RC F-104. The real one couldn't do half the the stunts, pilot black out or a serious stall. Thank you for the video.

    My son, Russell and I were up from the 3D line and got to watch this beautiful jet being flown by the very accomplished pilot, Mr. Ali Machinchy on that nice sunny day. Glad this video shows him putting the F-104 Starfighter in to a low, I mean low , fast roll over the field. When it was inverted zooming down the flight line the top of the rudder, to my old eyes, couldn't been more than 3 ft maybe 4 ft off the deck!!! In our family Russell is the flyer because all I can do is fly of the handle! 😜✈ And that is the cut. These young guys have the skill and self-confidence to risk the, what did the show announcer call it, " emotional investment" of these high performance machines. Pure flying talent and not automated gyros or a fancy computer software program. Plug in play drones and augmented very expensive RC planes are okay to get and keep people with deep pocket and not much skill at the moment into the hobby. For some folks, like me, that might be the only way to fly even if I just can do a pony ride around the pattern safely. A person has got to know their limitations. For the kids that build and fly the foamys dream of a day when they've grown and learned to fly like this. I hope there will always be that cadre/ class of real pilots who can pass on their knowledge to young folks that want to aspire to this level of flying. Blue Skies!

    Every time I watch this, it gets BETTER & BETTER. That 1st Low Level Pass is SOOOOOO BEYOND ALL Other RC Jets! Only that Yak fighter/trainer at the International RC COMPS in Switzerland comes 'close'..., but I still see this as better...

    I admire his smooth flying skills. Well done, especially on the quick turn around and landing from the initial take-off. Of course the low level roll was a cheek tightener.
