I’ve shared your project with Barnes Wallace’s colleague’s family...well done team.
Prof. Holland, whilst I never knew Barnes's family, I knew him well through my representation on the Committee of a
Through the Co mitte of Almoners of Christs Hospital, back in the late 70s. I was going to share this video with them, but you saved me the work of research where the reside. Thank you for that.
As a matter of fact Barnes is always remember with great respect in my household. In fact on rememberance sunday, my late father always bought an extra pint of beer , which was put on the mantle piece in the local pub. I never did find out who drank them after we left..
My own more-direct knowledge of Barnes' work was related to radio astronomy. He designed the guidance mechanism for the equatorial mounts for both the Parkes radio telescope in Australia, and the Algonquin 47m radio telescope in Canada. It used, like the dambusters mechanism, a tightly-collimated beam of light.
You three make me so proud to be English. Engineering, friendship and gentlemanly conduct. Wonderful stuff.
2nd what he said.🔝
As y’all should be where would this 🌎 be without 🇬🇧 contribution to humanity !!
🙏👍✌️
And torturing the irish and controlling their land and treating them not as humans
There's always one. Take it to Speakers corner, this is a RC channel.

Came here from Tom Stanton's channel, great job, really enjoyed it.
Thanks!
As good or better than Flite test projects. The design of the Lancaster available for free tiles off the net . Keep up the good work.
Thank you, gentlemen. Nov. 11th is also a very somber day for us Americans, as we pray for the souls of our fathers and brothers, and those of our dearest allies in the UK, lost in the Great War. As a retired US Army Veteran, I carry a poppy every day, all year, refreshed with a new one, on the 11th hour, of the 11th day, of the 11th month.
These lads show the spirit and ingenuity of the men and women who worked on these projects almost 80 years ago. A credit to their country.
great job guys
Cheers Ramy

This is the simplest comment I have ever seen on TH-cam
Hey ramy! You have nice planes! And projectair has a big fantasy!
Also, I am grateful you had that "momemt" of rememberance! Perfect!
Wow! Matt you are a such a genrous person! So humble and magnanimous that you would run a camera for someone else while being so "big" yourself. It's not every day that an Oscar winner would be a camera operator and transportation for new unknown actor.
Some great engineering here. Very impressive work. One of my favorite stories from the war.
I imagine the struggles and challengers were a lot similar to how OG dambusters trained to get the technique down.
Or the dam busters in Bomber Crew...
I loved ❤ this project James, and I'm just about to go watch Tom's video. I also think your Lancaster deserves a rebuild and some more scale detailing, it has such an evocative presence in the sky that I'm sure I'm not the only one that'd love to build one or even buy a kit designed by you.
Thanks! I'll definitely be finishing up the plans in the next few days. The Vintage Model Company might be bringing out a foam kit of this plane next year so watch this space :)
I realy love this project! Do you are able to share the buildplans ore sale them?
So much grandchildren could make their grandpa's happy when they build this together with them and actually bounce some barrels over a local water surface.
@@Project-Air Great news, it'll sell like hot cakes. Definitely a huge gap in the market for a decent sized foamy Lanc and for a rough and ready build, your design is excellent. It wouldn't take much tweaking to bring it up to something beautiful. Well done!
@@Project-Air hi James. Is there any movement on this as a kit with the Vintage Model Company yet? Thanks 👍
You guys are awesome! Showing the mishaps makes it so much more relatable when I remember the planes I've tried building. All part of the experience!
Absolutly the best rc-project and on YT since David Windestal was last seen on FT! Nice work!! :)
David Windestal's has always been a huge inspiration for me, so thanks for mentioning that. ☺️
A British dambuster coming down using a German Stuka sound. Priceless. Greetings from Germany. Amazing project. And btw, the Edertalsperre is only a few kilometers away from where I live ...
Cool, thanks!
Thanks for watching! Here's some more stuff for you to check out.
Build video! ☺️☺️ 👉 th-cam.com/video/HzkgCq5GWP0/w-d-xo.html

Just to note, this was a project to investigate the engineering and dynamics involved in skipping a projectile on water when dropped from a moving aircraft. Although it took inspiration from history, it was not intended to celebrate war or the Dambusters raid (and its tragic impacts).
i had a idea for a video. im curious how many stages you can put on a model rocket. i have found some people that have done 3 or more. but how many do you think is the max??? lets find out.
Barnes Wallis is smiling in his grave.
Guys you are a credit too your generation, was really taking back when you took a minute out to honour ex military personnel. Great video and fantastic work, gentlemen always keep doing what your doing 👍👍
That was so very cool. And the plane looked amazing in the air! looking forward to se more like this!
Yes very respectful to do that from our younger generation.
A tribute to Hoppy Hopgood's sacrifice when Lancaster M for Mother crash at the Mohne Dam.
Be interesting to see a Mosquito built, and drop a Highball at a foam board ship...
I've just watched your video a year after the event. Very well done lads. I really admire your ingenuity. Oh and your behaviour too. I didn't hear a single expletive even when the lanc crashed. It might interest you to know that the average age of the crews on the dam busting mission was just 21 - lads like you. To me that's profoundly moving. Well done again. Hats off to you all.
James, I've really enjoyed your channel but watching this made me realise that not only are you a skilled aviator, but you are a very talented film-maker as well. Your editing of the final successful slow-mo footage to the soundtrack was superb. Congratulations on this project!
Three musketeers. I admire Tom's work of engineering. Vintage model aircraft produce some great looking planes. This video is nailed it with all the sciences and excitement involved. Cheers guys.
Totally brilliant ! I cheered when you launched it over the water 🥰🥰
Great vid! And I do very much appreciate you stopping for a moment in honor of amenities day, or Remembrance Day. Cheers!
Nicely done gentlemen. It's nice to see folks exploring and keeping history alive. Besides it looked like you had some great fun while doing it.
This is simply fantastic - you’ve achieved one of the things I’ve been dreaming of everyday for the last 45 years! Thank you!
Had to watch this again! I saw the documentary on the WWII Dam Buster and you guys did a great job!
I LOVE the old stories of those AMAZING pilots!! Thank you for doing this!
What a fantastic setting to carry out your project.
I wish my Final Year project was even half this much fun!
х
Эх
Well done guys it really looked impressive,you had a very narrow corridor to get the Lancaster down and did really well.
This may be your best video yet! Loving the documentary style. Top quality!
Great video! It catches all the fun you guys had and forwards it to us to feel it.
Nice to see this link between History and technology. RC-modelling is not only a leisure. Many thanks for those shared video !
That's awesome, and remembrance day was a great day for that. Imagine the stress an anxiety of those who did this mission IRL with a real plane and probably only had one shot at it!
Epic effort! I had a little smile too at you doing this not so far away from the original practice grounds for 617Sqn.
It is watching videos like this that has made me want to get back into the hobby after nine years absence. Outstanding work gentleman and a very entertaining video.
I did watch a documentary about the WW II dam buster project, so that made your video a lot of fun, and very meaningful. Thank you blokes!
Makes you appreciate how difficult the original mission was, holding a Lancaster at 60 feet while flying at 220 mph let alone AA guns shooting at you. Well done, real engineering in action.
Really nice that you included remembrance day in the Vid.
Great to watch!
My dad was involved in getting Barnes Wallace an honorary degree, because dad worked on the explosives which were critical to this mission!
100s Guys you have the "Right Stuff" vision, tenacity, enjoying the project while you did it. Keep it up Chaps you all make a good team!
It took the designer of the bomb several months to get the speed, height and distances between the aircraft and target for it to work right. Duct tape in the TAG and USAAF was used to fix airframe battle damages, here in the state's we orginally called it 400 MPH Tape.
My Dad who spent WW2 involved in the development & production of the specialised explosives which made Barnes Wallace's bombs possible was later involved in the award of an honorary degree to Barnes Wallace, so I have followed all of his ideas including the aircraft recovery from Loch Ness with great interest (I once slept on a yacht moored at the western end of Loch Ness as we travelled along the Caledonian Canal).
OHBOY. this channel has just my type of content! keep up good work!!
Thanks! Hope you enjoy my stuff!
OUTSTANDING!!
Hopefully the Lancaster will be seen again. Be a great FT kit.
Most excellent gentlemen. I enjoy watching your steps of progress in your projects. You've taught much to this old man.
I found myself on the edge of May seat wanting this to work for you guys so bad when it finally worked I was excited for you guys wow really top notch 👏
The whole project was amazing! My favourite bit was actually the retrieval with the hydrofoil (really sleek design there!)
absolutely brilliant fellas , that was amazing !!!!!!
cool collaboration. The dambuster story is very interesting
Absolutely love the Lancaster, was able to see one fly when I was at Abington air station, great job
Nice work fellas. Enjoyed the video and the project!
Amazing job guys! I love to see young men and women solve problems with practical solutions!
This is exceptional. One of the coolest things I've ever seen. And the video production is very good as well. (View count seems unreasonably low imo.)
10:39 Side note: That was the diving sound of a Junker Ju 87 Sturzkampfbomber with the Jericho Trumpets, and a Lancester certainly would not have been able to make such sounds, but the sound is almost always used for diving planes of other designs than the Ju 87.
Nice work! Bounced better than I expected
Really cool to watch! Congrats on your achievement.
Wow what a project. Love your tenacity to make it happen. Great footage BTW.
Terrific video! Excellent engineering!
Congratulations gentlemen!
Incredible…. And a black armband on the wing! Rates alongside Top Gear specials.
Great stuff to watch, guys. Reminds me of when I worked for the Wolfson Unit at Southampton Uni making models for hydrodynamic and wind tunnel testing. Keep it up! This is what British inventions are based on. This kind of work with models. It all starts here, from hovercraft to hydrofoils to rockets, and great to watch. What's the next project? A flying car?
Hey man you should totally make a variable sweep wing aircraft like the mig-23 or F-14 tomcat
Really enjoyed the video
object 906 good idea!
Smashing video as always Mr Whomsley. Especially enjoyed when you stated "landing is where it really got spicy" 😄
That was so freakin beautiful! Well done! Thanks for a massively good show!
Job guys I think you all need a better landing spot wider runway would be nice. That's gotta be really difficult to try to hit that small runway. But you pulled that you guys pulled it off good job.
Amazing flying and mechanism. Well done all.
Top effort lads, this is an epic broadcast
That beats most of the times that I've tried to skip a rock. Outstanding! Too bad the plane broke though because that was a truly beautiful plane.
bomb release mechanism is pure genius. i love it!
It was a back spin that done the job finally! I remember my grandfather telling us the story they went through in the RAF durn this!
Of course the actual bombers had a triangulated light system to judge the perfect altitude from which to drop the barrel bombs. Maybe you could drag a stiff wire or something underneath the plane to judge your optimum height for skipping the barrel.
As a flight enthusiast bloak form the US.... seeing the young men of today taking an interest in not only aviation but history's accomplishments sure is great for the future. if you havent seen please check out Drago bush plane and its owner, mike who has an TH-cam channel . what he says in his intros describes what you r doing you james to a tee! dont ever give up what your doing brother
Good job! Lots of fun and good historical remake. Congratulations!
Nice one lads👍🍻.
Got to respect those boffins back in the day (Barnes Wallace)
Absolutely bloody brilliant. Found this after finishing the James Holland book about the Dambusters. Very gratifying stuff, as I'm into RC planes.
Half way through the book and it’s pretty good 👍
Literally my favorite youtubers all in the same video
Awesome work guys!!! Loved it.
First, this kid makes some really good videos. Second, getting 3 solid bounces for his 'bomb' was really excellent work. Nice plane, nice bomb release mech, nice work.
Also, while you might not think so, low level flying is actually quite difficult. For instance, the things you can do to try and gain more altitude, actually tend to cause a loss of altitude. The change in the horizontal stabilizer actually increases drag. And if you don't simultaneously increase engine power, you'll go down, not up.
Wow there’s a lot covered in this video that tom skimmed over in his
But I guess only then it would be fair for James....
Well done on this great project!
Well done you lads good to watch keep them coming
Well done guys I never gave much thought doing the bouncing bomb thing with rc ,yea really cool .
Well done Lads, good to see young Men doing projects like this!!!
what a nice bunch of fellas great progress love the plane and you did bounce the bomb so thumbs up
Brillo guys . Real good fun to watch.
Would be cool to see an updated one of these, have an RC boat tow something into the water to use as target practice, and get the plane painted up to look like the real thing.
Came here from Tom Stanton's channel, you have great ideas! I had fun watching this! : )
Ten out of ten for this!!! Very well done!
awesome collaboration between youtubers, great ideas cant wait for more
Very well done, that was great to watch. Nice work
That was fantástic. You let the enemy without water..and do a kamikazi ...
RIP Lancaster you will always be a part of our hearts
Really interesting, entertaining, and informative. Thanks 🙂
Congraaats!🤗🥳
For doing it successfully
I think everything needs to be bigger = more energy = more power and i like the lancaster. Now i want to build my own! I love what you are doing!
Came via Tom, subscribed... looks like some really great content on your channel!
Fantastic shots and flight guys .well done. I still love the back and white movie of the dam busters. Rolex in ireland. 👍👏👊✋👊👏👍❤❤❤❤☘☘☘☘☘
Great Video. Was a blast to watch.
God bless Barnes Wallis and all his crew .true innovatives.
I know am late to watch tho! But i really really appreciate the Motive u guys had to Make the thing happen which u came for! GREAT WORK GUYS! KEEP COMING WITH MORE!!
Beautiful spot for flying!
