I think that no matter what part of the aero modeling sport you fly, one can appreciate the level of skill required in this flight.
The most impressive thing about this is that he has a girlfriend
People who do this kind of hobby are successful individuals in the field of engineering, they like this stuff because it's also a problem solving, Girls like successful individuals
@@lossantoscity3249 just a joke to make people smile, dude. Relax 👌
zekezero12345 good one too
c'mon, your mum doesn't like you talking to her like that!
@@lossantoscity3249 I like successful girls
I flew CL and a teenager and if you never have you really can’t appreciate the skill this gentleman just demonstrated. The square maneuvers were amazing. Absolutely an outstanding performance!
@@andrewjarvis4074 What?
I had 3 CL planes as a kid ... never made more than ONE revolution before nose diving into pieces.
amazing skill, but ultimately useless skill, that extremely few people would even care.
@@davidjacobs8558 "useless skill"??... spinning, and manipulating with strings .. is the foundation for a political career.
I saw CL planes in the hobby stores as a kid and I knew, even then, that the estimated flight time of any of those planes would be less than 30 seconds. And under 5 seconds if I was the one flying.
Elvis lives! And he likes to fly control line.
HAHAHA, thats exactly what i thought . I was gonna write that comment , but are just as happy that someone else picked that up .
Thank ya. Thank ya very much
Me too. Elvis is outside the building!
Exactly my Thoughts when I saw this video
Thank you very muuuuch
This is a way different than when we flew Control Line Stunt in the early 70's. We flew a lot slower with O.S. .35's and Noblers. The Fox .35 powered planes were even slower. Looks like he's using longer lines than the 60 foot ones we used. Ah the memories and the smell of the K&B or Fox Superfuel.
This takes me back, I used to love flying control line combat. I still have all my engines, they're all antiques now!
Ah yes.. my dear ole Fox .35 and the revised version of a Veco T-Bird!
Still have the O.S.35. Built a kit called the Phantom Mite and flew combat models with a paper streamer for the opponent (s) to cut. Laystraight Wires and yellow aluminium handle. Wonderful memories.
Right with you Bill. Still have a fox .35 w/60' lines on a ringmaster as well as 2
.049 (1/2a) baby ring masters.
Bill Ducas: I also thought his lines looked a lot longer than the ones we used in the 1970’s. I remember the ‘ole Nobler. A truly great plane indeed. I used a K&B 35 in those days. Many great memories!!
I am 68 years old now but, whin I was in the army in 1969 I flew what was called "U" control. I had no idea people were still doing this kind of flying. Believe it or not, I was as good as this guy. My best plane was a F4U1 Corsair.
Don’t lie
You didn't do the stunt pattern with a F4U1 Corsair.
@Trash Shaming Yes, people do still fly control line. I've been out of touch these last few years, don't know who's won the World Champs in F2B (CL Stunt) for the last decade. The Chinese were dominant throughout the 90s IIRC. These days they've moved to electrics for Stunt. I'm more of a Combat flier (using streamers).
BULLSHIT
cwrobinson6363 .... Control line has a sort of cult following. There are a few online suppliers keeping this aspect of the hobby alive and well. I flew CL alongside my dad when I was a kid. I’m 37 now and fly my own planes, but still with my dad. Good times.
I used to have one of those growing up and it was by far one of the best hobby/toys ever. Seeing these videos makes me want another one.
I can appreciate the cameraman focusing on both the plane and the pilot. Being able to see how he's manipulating the line is awesome.
it would've been even better if there was a females championship that required a bikini only dresscode XD
@g60force , I must agree. Well said. 😅
Brings back memories of my youth! Need to get back into control line-- THAT WAS model flying! Direct control. Love the video!
I miss the tug felt in the hand from the larger planes.
I remember flying a plane like that in 70s and all I can remember is begging God to let gas run out before I fainted.
I felt exactly the same. I guess that's where the tricks come in handy.
All the while flying with throbbing fingers after getting whacked with that spring starter.
Me too. LOL!!! I couldn't get used to turning around like that.
A3Kr0n - And that gas seeping into your propeller-cut-finger. The good old days. 😂🤣😂
😂🤣 i was just thinking that... doesn't look like much fun spinning around in circles and then doing more loops and circles lol
I used to do this type of flying when I was 5 years old in 1979....I thought it had gone the way of wagons and horse drawn buggies...hahaha didn't know there were still badass line control pilots. Great precision my friend.
Yeah, I didn't know anyone still did this. I remember watching my uncle fly these in the early 70's.
Dude looks like a Jedi Master in a practice session! 😅
🥃cheers🍻
that's his 2nd hobby XD
I had only a few CL flights as a kid. In that short amount of time I managed to perfect the “Figure-9”!
I can't believe you didn't get more thumbs up for that!
Funniest comment ever.
Oh yes, in Control Line the figure 9 is eyery time the first manouveur you will learn. And it happens again and again and again ...
Erstklassige Vorstellung. Habe nicht gedacht, dass mit Fesselflug sowas möglich ist.👍👍👍👍👍😄😄😄😄😄 Viele Grüße aus Germany
I'm not much into control line flying, but that was completely amazing! This guy is a true professional
This takes me back, I used to love flying control line combat. I still have all my engines, they're all antiques now!
What is control line combat?
@@darklordojeda Two people standing together, with flying wings on control lines. The wings have 10 foot streamers attached. the idea is to grt close enough to your upponents aircraft to cut his streamer. Not as easy as it sounds, but great fun. there is a video of it somewhere. Found it! Watch this from 19:30 onwards.
I had a G21-35 supertigre in my combat plane. Fox made another engine that was pretty hot back then as well. Great fun!
@@terrygoyan3022 I still have my G15! Superb engine in it's day1
@@CanadairCL44 Some of you guys must have been rich when you were kids, our group used DC Merlin, Spitfire and Sabre diesels (0.75cc, 1cc, 1.5cc)
コントロールラインのマニューバーとても素晴らしい！
特に水平飛行の正確さに驚きました！！
Great Flying ! Great to see Elvis still lives
OUTSTANDING FLIGHT...!👍👍👍👍👍(5 out of 5)
THAT is one deadicated control line pilot.
Great job sir.
See you i the air.
Wayne
Insanely good flying, and the camerawork was superb. Great video.
Nearly impossible to film, thank you for this effort!
A true champion makes it look easy, wow ,
Oh, thank you very much.
Phantastisch diese fliegerische Perfektion 😊😊😊
Did you came here from Ozzy Man, didn't you?
Absolutely!
200%
Right on
Haha yep
Yea, didn't know this existed.
I was not ready for the level of awesome that was attainable in control line flight as displayed by this video.
I remember my first and last line flight. Lasted almost six seconds, utterly destroyed the plane. My ten year old self is still crushed by that memory...
Don't feel too bad, I did the same thing...
Funny ive the same memories my flight went up then down then nowhere
My father didn't realize there was depending on the setup a bigginers mode and an experts mode ,oops
My dad crashed mine when I was a kid
Ditto
Same thing happened to me, dude! Don't feel bad. When about 11, I got a white plastic Wen-Mac Aircobra from the Sears catalog. It was tail heavy, & would stall too easily, with my novice flying skills! I was crushed when it quickly crashed and broken. A compassionate older CL hobbyist flier then bought & let me fly a Jim Walker designed American Junior Firebaby. What a wonderful, fun, easy to fly, trainer plane that was! In no time, I was doing loops, & having a blast! That more experienced flier made all the difference. I'm forever indebted to him & his kindness!
WOW! Awesome flight!! For me, this beats RC 3D any day!
That was a master of his craft at work
Absolutely amazing! One almost forgets that we're watching model aircrafts
Ok I'm impressed! I fly rc jets and planes, all types and have never understood the attraction of control line rc. This guys really fun to watch. His focus and timing is world class. I imagine with this hobby you must loose a few, being that your so close to the ground, the whole time. Pitch sensitive planes would be hellish to fly so close and level. Especially with somthing fast amd high performance, like this guys bird!!😲😎👍💯
Commentaires très caractéristiques de modélistes hobby King made in china.
Va apprendre aux lieu de tenter de parler technique que tu connais pas ..!!!!
Thank you. Yes this model is very sensitive. In this time I practised 1.000 flights a year. And every time it is a high risk flight.
The attraction of Control Line is that every flight is like you are sitting in a rollercoaster and to feel the tension of the model airplane is very sportive.
Radio Control is very attractive, too. I like to watch this beautiful flights and models. For me, modelflying is a great sport. Every category has her own style and type of great attraction.
@@rk581 you should make some content about control line flying and the planes for TH-cam. It’s very interesting.
I Nowtime building my third and fourth Controlline Aircrafts! After being nearly 40 years on the ground ! It is very hard to undrstand how difficult it is to fly like this pilot do ! Magnus !
that is some nice flying....notice how after a wing over he pulls out to perfectly level flight....
Ace flying and I love the German black, red and gold colourscheme too!
Very impressive, takes hours if not years of practice to get to this level. I love the physicality of C/L, radio has more in common with computer gaming than physical flying. C/L certainly seems to be making a comeback.
The epitome of a control line pilot. 👍👌👏
The sound of that engine though 🤙
The engine is a Plettenberg Heli Expert 20-18 with a Havran Prop (3-blade-prop-Wood). My favourite engine was a 2 stroke - ST-60 from Tom Lay. So I tried to find an electric engine with the same rhythm. Mr. Plettenberg helped me a lot to find a perfect electric engine for me. So it was the 25-18 and the 20-18 heli expert.
@@rk581 Thank you for getting back to me, do you build your planes from scratch, Thayer look amazing. What plane is that one ?
@@nickpetrou2471 The model is called "Star Max" and based on the plan from Igor Burger (Slovakia) and his model Max Bee.
Thank you, hopefully one day I can fly one of these. I have just started in this hobby/ sport . I’m building a profile with a OS15. Have to start some where. Thank you for the inspiration.👌
Наконец-то увидел вертикальную обычную "восьмёрку" и квадратную. Пилотаж мастерский. Выход из фигур на высоте 1.5 м - это круто. Мне и всем, с кем я ходил на авиамодельный кружок в юности, до такого было очень далеко.
Can you translate my M.K.17 instruction booklet,HA just kidding know it is hard for me and easy for you,love
i never realized people still did this cool i have a cox spitfire and a stuka and l4 grass hopper in my cellar from my childhood
Супер! когда-то мы летали на дизелях и калилках . Сейчас электро, но ДВС тоже доставляет удовольствие! Красоту работы ДВС никто не отменял! А парень молодец! Квадратные фигуры это мастерство, а выход низко над землей это суперМастерство!
Now that right there was freakin awesone for sure! Ive seen alot of controlled line aicraft flying & i even had one as a teenager, but this is the very 1st time i have seen one where aerial acrobatics with the aircraft was displayed. This video "blew my freakin mind". . . . . .Just awesome awesome awesome!!!
Kinda makes me want to try it all over again.
@@sharkfeece That would be cool.
cool and he is a great pilot
Pilot? That's a bit of a stretch. Like my son plays COD on the PlayStation and he is a great marine?
Ramy, try this with your own built models! Keep up your work!!
Ozzy man has brought everyone here!
Back in the 50's... I would spend weeks building a beautiful model... take it out to fly and crash it to pieces. Never did learn to fly control line very well at all. Finally gave up and took up fishing.
Richard Herrington I got a present from my father when he returned from the USA to England and was a plane with plastic body with a Cox 0.49cc engine. First time I flew it I broke a wing off and ruined the thing.
May I ask how old you are?
There's nothing like control line. As a pilot, you can feel it in your whole body. Control line is similar in that you can feel it, not just stare at it like rc.
Yeah, like masturbating to porn, or actually getting laid.
Give me a break.
I agree
Great flying! I used to fly stunt but was never even close to as good as that guy. It takes nerves of steel to make turns that close to the ground.
This takes me back, I used to love flying control line combat. I still have all my engines, they're all antiques now!
Yes when you go Inverted down is up and up is down. You have time for errors when you're flying rc with altitude but at these speeds and close to the ground you got to think fast.
wow I thought it was only possible to fly circles but he performs aerobatics Sweet.
Yeah? I’d like to see an aileron roll.
It's amazing seeing it perform a loop...! That is great, thanks for sharing!
That's amazing. I didn't even know this was still a thing!!!
Is his right arm 6" longer than his left arm?
lol was thinking the same thing, this must pull quite hard, looking at his posture. combined with a lot of training hours...
well, or maybe he's as proficient with the other arm and balances it out that way. or the human body is quite resilient to such stresses.
anyway, keep up the interesting videos mr jeff
Damn you’re a normal person that delves into the weird stuff too? I thought you only powered electronically controlled rail guns that slung projectiles with forward assistance from rare earth magnets. Nice.
He was born with a control line in his grasp, plane in motion. So his right arm is actually a foot and a half longer than his left.
P.s. what kinda sluggs you launching today?
@@SleeveBlade Its a comfortable tug nothing that requires that type of posture. This dude was just way to animated trying showboat and act like its some type of athletic feat haha.
@@TotalDohnut ok
This brought back memories. I remember my dad buying be a green P51 control line model plane.
OMG! It looks as though the pattern hasn't changed since I memorised it from the rule book of 1978! Lol. :)
He's a bit rough...
But I was flying in the days of Doug Harlow, Doug Grinam and Tony Cincotta.
HP40 being the engine of choice that I still have today. :)
It was great learning about improving aircraft design.
I turned mainstream ideas upside down with wing and flap design, and came up with an aerobatic model that could change direction around a very sharp radius like a combat model with no buffeting, with next to no speed loss, yet it was the size of a small stunt ship (36" span) and at the same flying speed, slow!
You could fit 2 vertical eights on top of each other in the same space as one.
And like all great Experimental's, it was lost in a crash, pushing it on a windy day at a comp....
A few years later, now involved in full sized aerobatic scene, the Russian's present to the world, the Sukhoi 26.
The latest carbon fibre aerobatic machine from the Soviet Union, had my bloody model wing design on it! LOL. :)
It it flew like my model as well!
Big fat section with the centre of lift moved way forward, it pitched amazingly tight with no loss of speed, the big tractor radial pulled the weight slowly up the vertical line, minimising drag of higher speeds, and when pointing down, the big fat wing with a closed throttle and propeller drag, it came down the vertical so slowly, with full controllability to be able to roll at max rate.
The theory was proven in the real world.... with someone else's money! Lol. :)
Dudes smile is priceless
He's having fun.
Some pretty amazing skills there, I reckon I’d throw up just from doing so many circles continually. As someone else commented, you hold your breath half the time thinking he is going to drive it straight into the deck.
@Jim Alley I can remember as a kid here, on a weekend you would hear them at the local high school oval. We would jump on our bikes and rush down there and watch. Sometimes, you would be invited to look at them close up, and the questions about how they worked flowed. Haha, as well as being able to fly control line, those guys were also very patient with the neighbourhood kids and would answer all our questions.
Great stunt flying. Remind me of my early childhood spitfire control line in 80s.👍
Richard, you are one hell of a good C/L pilot!!
Those old control line planes were the best.
Mesmerizing. And I'm not even sure what I was looking at. I didn't realize this method of RC flying existed.
Шедевр! Мастерство не пропьешь!
My father flew control line stunt, combat, and speed planes in the fifties sometimes with me in the center with him. Great memories!
I started with my father, too. The best memories ever!
Really impressive. I had never seen World Champion level control line flying before. I learned a few moves :-)
That is crazy and pretty cool! You can see this take major skill, strength and stamina!
i remember my dad buying me one of these. it was a super chipmunk by cox.... never flew... 😒 but it was still a good time hanging out with my dad.🙂
Oi ..came here to get ozzy man a beer mate.
I can still feel callouses from getting my index finger BRRRR'ed by the Cox P51 Mustang prop.
That’s awesome! And he gets the girl too!
Amazing skills!
Total cool!
IT'S THE KING!!! Of control line flight...
I did a CL workshop with my son, once upon a time. When I got a chance to try it myself, I was so surprised. With the background a blur, you're looking at the plane, and it really responds aerodynamically to the controls! From outside the circle, it looks only ballistic.
What a performance just fantastic.
Awesome! I flew JR Stunt (contest) n the 50's, full AMA pattern, Nobler, Fox 35 adjusted needlevalvue to 4stroke. Gieskie or Alderich Nobler, don't Rember. Great memoriies with Dad. Took all winter to build the Nobler and get ready for contest season.
That was awesome!
nostalgic feelings from my childhood in the 1970s. But i miss the screaming sound of the Cox 2-stroke engine from that times.
I have one of these planes in my loft think it was my grandads. To afraid to give it a go as the learning curve looks pretty steep!
Great control skill! I was really scared when the plane was plunging down, nearly touching the ground.
Impressive!
It would be interesting if one could put a robot on the control end of the wires just to see how crazy stunts the model could do.
Excellent pilot with a good plane. I remember I had the Thuderbolt by Bop Palmer which had differential ailerons. My congratulations to the pilot, he is calm well coordinated and young. We had the Merco, ED bee. ED Special. and a few other engines including the Italian Super tigre , Austrian and Russian engines.......... Great times in my life. Even though radio is very attractive, my grandson would like this and so I should go back to it to give him the experience.
10/10 for the Tai Chi stance!👏👏👏
OMG!! Incredible.
Das ist der pure Wahnsinn! wie funktioniert da z.B. ein Looping? Da muss doch immer Spannung auf der Leine sein und das ist doch bei einem Looping nicht der Fall. Unglaublich.👆👆👆👆😃😃😃😃😃 Viele Grüße aus Warthausen bei Biberach an der Riß
This is pretty cool. I have heard of control line but never done/seen it myself.
I remember buying one of those Cox gas powered planes like this when I was a kid in the 70s, tried it once, got so dizzy I fell down and crashed it first flight, lol
The trick was to walk a small circle rather than spin around on a spot
I picked up the Cox .049 spitfire for £12
same here, flying bricks! it was fun....while it lasted!
@@WiliiamNoTell still have it in its original box, with original manual and papers, fuel can and strings
And winding the prop to start and accadentally cutting my fingers when my prop slipped. Lol
I had one of those planes on a line when i was a kid and could never get it to work. This is the first time I have even seen one in action. crazy.
I am 72 years old. Started control line flying around nine years old. I still have a collection of .020, .049. .051. And other 1/2 A stuff. Even got into radio control. All the way up to weed eater engines. 8 ft. Wing span biplane.
The cox 049
Those were fun days
I had a plane like that with lines in the early seventies. It was a Cox PT Trainer and I had a black Ju87 Stuka. Put a black widow motor in it and it was fast.
Nice! Looks like it really pulls.
The King lives!
Великолепно! Бесподобно!
Control line flying you have direct physical links to your model planes while r/c and free flight are not. Jim Walker of U S developed this type of flying several tens years ago. Very easy to fly but lifelong hard to mastered it. you're the best
I've only recently become aware that people still did CL. Its never in any advertising though.
same, i did it when i was 16 (now 46) and RC 35mhz was starting to gain traction by then
Because it’s shit.
Wow!!! Amazing!!
Und flighten gooden fantastik! Wunderbar, Jah!
Fantastic take-off!
Oh no, wait, we didn't SEE it!
Shoulda kept the camera on the pit crew
At first I thought... WTF?... skillz. Respect.. just wished the dude had pulled a few dance moves. 😊
Spektakuläre sehr gut. Ich sende einen sehr großen Gruß für alle aus dem Club Albatros Gruppierung Flugzeuge von Buenos Aires 😃👍👍.
Amazing flight!
Awesome skills and tolerance for dizziness.
That was amazing, I have some local guys at RC airport do this, but with shorter line. The plane looks frantic, not smooth, this guys plane seems like their is somone in it. WOW
So awesome thank you...
Pretty impressive...Great job..👍
