I’ve watched hundreds of these videos, I watch the take off then fast forward to the landing…..this is the first time I’ve totally enjoyed the actual flight. Great job mate really enjoyed it
I thought I was the only one who did that. You can always tell if someone really knows what they're doing by the way they take off and land. This cat knows what he's doing. It's nice to see someone who knows how to use a rudder!
What a delightful flight Jack! The best demonstration of the joy of flight I've seen. I've seen so many RC aircraft videos of all models great and small and I usually just watch the takeoff and landing. Most of what is in the middle I tend to find uninteresting. Jack demonstrates more than anyone I've seen a simple joy and delight of flight. He has a super capable model and I couldn't look away. You created that feeling of awe I found for those german indoor giant yet super lightweight aircraft that just seem to hang in the air but you achieved it outdoors with a giant scale full spec model. Respect! Well done!
Well, that one topped everything else youve put up, in my opinion anyways! I could watch him fly that cub all day. The low speed “kickover” turns he was doing almost like figure eights were hypnotic. Im sure there is a name for that maneuver but I always called them kickovers. That twin never seemed to get past maybe 1/3 throttle? Obviously making more than enough power to effortlessly make any move he wants. I do believe I have reset my model as far as a large scale airframe goes, I want one of these!!! Excellent filming as usual, man that was awesome.
Hi Glen, Jack here. Thank you for your words, I'm glad you've enjoyed watching the flight as much as I enjoyed flying it. Stay tuned for more! As Pete said, that's generally what those maneuvers are called.
@@tennriverluver3534 wow - thanks for your kind comments Tenn. Much appreciated. Im glad that you like our content / videos and hope you stay with us 👍 regards pete
Bravo! Well done. It's so refreshing to see someone who knows how to use the rudder on their RC plane. Very scale looking flight too. Doubt you used more than 50% throttle that entire flight.
@@rcgreaves aha yes Great Britain 🇬🇧 thank you Clayton... I'm sorry to here you're stuck inside, but much like the weather it can only get better from here
I'm so impressed with your flying ability and how you can control such a large plane in such a small area. My hats off to you I wonder could this plane be fitted with an electric motor? Have you ever heard of one this large with an electric motor? Thanks!!
Hi, Jack here... thank you so much, I really appreciate your kind words. In answer to your question, yes and much bigger actually... if you type in 50% piper cub electric, you should find the blue scheme, which a guy modified and made electric. Hopefully that helps!
Yes absolutely it could be electric, and generally when weights are compared my examples such as the Senior Telemaster all come out lighter- about 10-20%. I go back and forth about gas power- it’s part of the charm of this video right? “ Light is always right” with aircraft, but Above 25% scale , 40% here, the wing loading is very low in deed. Again, thanks for sharing, it motivates me to finish my winter projects!
You would ruin this plane with electricity! Not only does it need that sound, it is much more economical. Could you imagine the batteries you would have to bring to fly all afternoon? You would have to bring batteries to charge batteries! And you couldn’t bring enough for a day let alone a weekend! You would have to have a generator, and some seriously expensive charging equipment. When he is just going to top off his radio battery, crank some fuel in it, and fly fly fly!
Thanks Carlos, and as pete said 22kg, I plan to do an overhaul and add some nice scale details, so hopefully I can keep the wait down, let's see how she responds, I'm going to run some flight test before hand
Apologies Wolf, I gave Pete the wrong info 😬 30x13 I'm running... I have the engine tuned rich, I find it better for flying on the bottom end, I just have to warm it back up and open her out slowly when doing maneuvers. An Oilily rag is all part of the fun with this aircraft.
@@RIPnDIPfpv well even a 30x13 is quite big for this engine! manual gives out a 26x12 up to a 28x10 😅 (I got this engine too and not sure what prop to run with it yet tho good to know it handles a 30x13 that well!)
@@didierneeferc ah what they say is only ever guidance to deliver a product successfully and safely... in the end, it depends on what you're trying to achieve, if I was wanting more rpm and respons, then it wouldn't be so smart, but I wanted the low rpm, low prop noise but with the torque to pull her round in the wing overs whilst keeping in the lower rpm range.
Holy shit! He better slow that thing down before somebody gets hurt! 🤣🤣🤣 He must be able to fly that thing for seven or eight days on a tank full! 😂😂😂 I think I would puke on the second day after watching for so long! 😬😆😆😆 cool bird, awesome flying! 🍻
I don't understand how it can be flown so slow and still stay in the air. Seemed like it should have stalled in those turns. Glad it didn't though as it is a beautiful plane.
Very nice. Looks like it's properly powered. Too many model planes are vastly overpowered. If you want a stunt plane, then build a stunt plane. If you want a scale model, then power it correctly.
Very true Joe, based on what I have done with that model, I think its best to actually up the engine size, so that it has more torque to swing a bigger prop, then you can fly on the lower rpm range. I see to many needing to be flown on higher rpm to track right, resulting in the sound to visual not making sense to the audience.
2:55 amazing, 1 of 75 videos with a pilot who can actually "use" his throttle! Eye yam sew seek'tired of full throttle flights with sketchy landings, oh and take-offs which always look out of control. I feel better.

I absolutely love this airplane. The way he flies is so smooth. I like how he flies low and slow.
thanks
Thank you so much!! I appreciate the kind words
I enjoyed your cub flying, peaceful & graceful. This is how a cub should fly. Low & slow. Good job flying it.
thanks - Glad you enjoyed it kenny
@@tbobborap1 thanks for nice compliment.
That’s the way to fly a scale model, especially a Cub. Perfect!👍🏻
thanks nick
Young Bill is speaking my language with scale flying low and slow....sorta like me but not old like me. Thanks for sharing Pete. Jim
cheers jim, bill hempel is the plane designer - jack is the pilot
Aha thanks Jim, low and slow is certainly where the fun is at, It becomes additive!
Been a pilot for 25 years and recently started to build a Raceair Flitplane so I can fly like this model! Chasing bugs and gophers.
Wow that’ll fly for days at that throttle setting. Love the way she flies. Nice job!
Thanks 👍
Wow, gorgeous. Flys so effortlessly. Looked like a lot of fun flying that cub.
thanks phil
Hi Phil, Jack here! Thanks, she really dose fly herself and by far the most enjoyable aircraft.

That's the kind of flying I like!!...... love the realistic touch & goes.......

Thank you Chris! I appreciate that
@@RIPnDIPfpv Thank you for creating such a masterpiece!
What a beauty! Love the scale look, sound and skilled (tricky!) flying. You'd expect a pilot to get out after she lands :)
thanks phil
Just shows you don't need speed to have a smooth pleasant and accurate flight. Lovely to watch.
thanks Glad you enjoyed it
I could watch that all day amazing flying great video 💯👍
thanks smokey Glad you enjoyed it
Was great to be there to see this flight bloody superb 👍
Yes it was slag
What a treat to see her flown so low and slow - must have been a crop duster pilot in another life!!!

As Pete said, that's generally what those maneuvers are called.
Stunning!....brought back my daya of actual J3 cub flights...low and slow.
Excelente piloto, uno de los mejores que he visto, se puede reconocer por los aterrizajes suaves y precisos.
Hey that is one neat plane bro, looks like he was having just as much fun flying it at walking pace as some do at break neck speed. Cheers for posting
lol - yep your right m8
Phenomenal build, beautifully balanced and trimmed. Exceptional piloting skills! Who cares about all that 3-D baloney that my friends was flying!
thanks soren - Glad you enjoyed it!
May be the best sounding RC prop motor I've ever heard. Beautiful aircraft and flying too.
thanks dave
Great looking aircraft. THe pilot is so smooth. The engine seems quite powerful. Great video as always.
Thanks a lot!
Great flying. Love the low and slow. So smooth!
Beautiful flying. Fantastic video. Good on ya!
thanks Glad you enjoyed it orval
Every time I see footage of the Bill Hempel planes I am just stunned. Great looking plane and flys amazing.
Glad you enjoyed it randy
0:57; awww, he even makes sure the squirrels are ready on their treadmills, ^_^
lol
Amazing precision low and slow flying. Engine sounds scale. Masterfully flown in a very small space. Nothing cooler than a J3/Super Cub!!!
Thank you very much!
Nothing quite relaxing, and excoriating, as flying a big ol' Cubby low and slow on its huge wing. Love it.
Glad you enjoyed it
what a beautiful machine, floats around practically at idle.
Nice looking plane and I love the colour, great piloting skills.
Glad you enjoyed it steve
Very nice, what a great floater of a plane! I have a 1/4 scale 110” wingspan with a 26cc two stoke gasoline engine swinging an 18 inch prop.
thanks

I had many a fantastic flight with this beauty
how long did you own her for john
Bravo! Well done. It's so refreshing to see someone who knows how to use the rudder on their RC plane. Very scale looking flight too. Doubt you used more than 50% throttle that entire flight.

Please, what speed does the engine spin on the ground with a 32x12 propeller? Thank you very much for your reply, best regards, Tomáš
nice fly, joy to watch
Glad you enjoyed it ric
wish I could fly a model so slow with such good control.
C'est un régal de voir voler ce superbe Piper. Bravo 👏
merci
great slow flight👍
Thanks 👍
So relaxing seeing this cub fly! Is it scratch built?
its built from a kit designed by bill hempel
Wicked video best one I have seen and cracking smooth flying, I want that Cub!!
