DAMN - that's a beautiful model ... and my heart was in my mouth when the engine flamed out. Stopped breathing until she was on the ground and coasted to a stop. VERY nicely recovered.
Because then you have to get license to fly it, and airworthiness certifications for the plane, and it becomes a ginormous, expensive, bureaucratic SNAFU.
@@stevejordan7275 Agreed but the Wright brothers ( Louis Bleriot ) didn’t have to bother and look what they did. There is also part 108 or whatever it is called... unregulated under a certain weight...
@@robertwalsh5461 Oh yeah....ultralights. Well, you still can't fly your ultralight into the middle of the Pentagon without attracting some attention. And the pioneers of human flight didn't have such bureaucracies to contend with. On the other hand, I think it would be in poor taste for some well-connected but poorly-informed character to start building and testing nuclear-powered aircraft anywhere near population centres. And I'm glad that federal regulators agree and have the authority to prevent it. It IS a balancing act.
@@stevejordan7275 Gotchya. Yes I do know about regulated airspace. I have a valid LSA pilot’s license with endorsements. The same is true for sailing your yacht into the middle of a naval fleet or even walking off the sidewalk that goes by the White House...into the grass in front of it. I fly around ( near ) the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory and have friends who work there. Let me tell you that building has had defenses installed on it ( after 911 ) and you have to keep really wide of it.
For the last year plus we have been members only and gates closed due to the pandemic. We are leaving the gates unlocked at this time and hopefully we will be able to keep them unlocked from here out.... If you can't make it out you can see lots of the planes right here.... Enjoy either way...
As a kid i flew and built many r/c models. Now i am fortunate to be able to fly full scale Aircraft and it still is amazing to me that so many people think if the Engine quits... you will always crash. Beautiful F86 by the way....
I sighed at the end of that too... Nice dead stick. Great job. I used to fly there in Arvada. My channel has a lot of videos from there. I moved away 2 years ago though. I really miss that field...
I don't watch these RC videos very often because while I admire the builders and the pilots I also imagine it must be tragic to lose a beautiful aircraft like this in a crash. The hobby must be very rewarding while at the same time nerve racking to watch your creation flying around hoping nothing goes wrong. So glad the baby bird made it home safely.
It's absolutely fantastic. I hope to get some more video of it this summer (without the missing 10 seconds). 🙂🙂🙂 There are many more awesome models here. Hope you enjoy the rest of the videos.
Wow. I was thinking, "why is this video titled this way?". Then I read some of the comments. I just thought the sound on the video went out and didn't realize that the engine just stopped. Nice job getting it back on the ground.
@@JeffsRCClips Just a joke. Somebody's got to razz the cameraman on that bad track. I'm glad the plane made it down ok. I fly too, so I know the pain of seeing them end up in pieces. I just don't have anywhere near that much on the line though.
No worries... That's probably one of the most awesome models I've taken video of, in one of the worst videos I've done. How it ended up being the most viewed by a long shot I'm not sure but whatever I guess. I may have had 5000 subscribers by now if it wasn't for that missing 10 seconds... 🙄🙄🙄 I'll be posting a flame out from today that didn't turn out quite that well. P.S. If your post had really bothered me I woulda just removed it. 🙂
I love watching videos of guys flying model airplanes. My dad flew them for years and years before he died. But, I could never get him to build himself a jet model. He just did not like the ducted fan engines. Great video. Screw the haters.
Uhhh ... your mother wears army boots? Great model, one of my favorite planes. I think the vid was great and I'd enjoy seeing that A-10 fly too. Thanks, S
A number of thousands. People who laugh at big RC jets that crash and burn don't understand the quantity of money that was just instantly destroyed, not to mention hundreds (if not thousands) of hours invested in building it.
It's amazing how many people want complete carnage. And then give a Thumbs Down because there was no fireball. Sick! My heart sinks every time this happens whether the camera is on or not.
Was it a flame out or a mechanical failure? I think I heard metal to metal contact as she comes to a stand. Awesome model though. It takes some serious guts to put so much money into the air and hopefully bring it back down again.
Flame outs can be scary! The recovery was brilliant. Glad you enjoyed the video! Please, if you enjoy this content consider subscribing. It would mean the world too me! 🙏🏻
I don't know anything useful about piloting RC planes, but I assume the pilot has to make a whole group of quick adjustments of control surfaces to keep the thing under control in this situation. Then, of course, he has to land it dead-stick. Plus, I'm guessing low speed stability and maneuverability isn't a strong suit for this plane. So, when the engine quit, I figured the it was most likely doomed. Yet, the pilot made the whole thing look effortless. Impressive.
Pretty easy dead stick. Sufficient altitude and aligned well for landing. Even I could have done it, save for me never thinking of spending that much on my RC toys.
I built a much smaller version (with a prop) many years ago. I crashed it after inducing a flat spin. I recovered several times...but not the last time. lol
Thanks John... Not as much hard on myself as got tired of dealing with stupid comments so I stated the obvious. They were lighting up my phone at least every five minutes... And to be sure, as far as the video goes, there are dozens and dozens that aren't too bad... Thanks again and enjoy... 🙂
I just checked it on Google Earth... It's 913 feet from the end of the runway to the closest utility pole. The full zoom in on the plane makes them look closer than they are. You really don't even think about them when flying. Hope you enjoying the videos.
Of note is the glide performance of larger models. If this had been 2/3rds the size it wouldn't have got back to the runway. You cant beat the Reynolds numbers.
Spent some time in tha USAF this was impressive, I remember Scott AFB I was in radio maintance spent some time at ST Anthony Newfoundland at a AC&W radar site.. don't miss that much..
Didn't go as planned, but went way better than it could have! Nice piloting skills.
DAMN - that's a beautiful model ... and my heart was in my mouth when the engine flamed out. Stopped breathing until she was on the ground and coasted to a stop. VERY nicely recovered.
One of my favorite jets. So glad this beautiful model made it back safely!
It never ceases to amaze me why they don’t just scale up more so they can fly in it
Me too! I would love to be in that A-10!!

When you land with all the big parts, you had a great flight!!! Well done Sir!
Proof that airplanes fly on wings and not engines. Beautiful F-86!
Yes they fly on wings but need a power plant to execute۔
@@liaqathussain9794 Thank you... Captain Obvious.
From the title I was waiting for it to nosedive into the ground. Good job bringing it back in one piece!
Where/how did you get/build the turbine blades?
Dead stick landing? Very nicely done!
Well done! And lovely 86... Would love to see it with drop tanks
So why the flameout?
it looked to me to be a perfectly planed flam out and landing. one of the best ive seen. real nice job.
Beautiful power-off landing! Under the circumstances, I don't believe there could have been a better outcome! Bravo!
Beautiful airplane model to be sure. Any idea what might have happened to cause the engine loss?
Not 100% sure but often it's air that got into the fuel flow. Thanks for asking.
I can see my house upon the hill. I do enjoy watching this field with binocs.
Come on down... There even better up close.... 🙂
@@JeffsRCClips I didn’t know I could (I know the way). My old buddy M Nuez used to belong to your group. Fun to watch.

It depends on when the engine quits, or rather how high, altitude is life
I sighed at the end of that too... Nice dead stick. Great job.
I used to fly there in Arvada. My channel has a lot of videos from there. I moved away 2 years ago though. I really miss that field...
It's an awesome field and club. Hopefully you'll recognize some of the planes and pilots in the other videos. I'll check out your channel.
Glad he was able to get it down in one piece.

Glad you like it. Enjoy 🙂
Nice looking plane! Glad to see it survive another day.
Me too!
What didn't go as planned, the filming or the flight??
Take your pick. If putting down the cameraman makes you feel better it's cool. Hope you enjoy the rest of the videos. 🙂

What a nice looking F-86!
Out of curiousity are there parachute options for RC planes to recover them mostly whole?
Beautiful Saber. That sudden silence gets the adrenaline pumping. Excellent emergency dead stick .
only this is is a stickless bird by design

And people like you ARE the reason I post these videos. You ROCK Rick!!!!
very nice scale take off
Good recovery!
Well done! Could have been very bad ending but good pilot and cool head saved the day and the plane
Why what did you think was going to happen ?
@@tonywright8294
If you need to ask......
What’s the engine?
I'm not sure Paul but when I see the pilot again I'll get as much info as I can. Thanks for asking.
That looks like a lot of fun! Glad you saved the day
So impressive, the Saber , the scale,the sound and your flying skill. 😀
Uhhh ... your mother wears army boots?
Great model, one of my favorite planes. I think the vid was great and I'd enjoy seeing that A-10 fly too.
Thanks,

YOU ABSOLUTELY AWESOME! But leave my mother outta this! Insults suck... Comedy rules... Enjoy the videos.... A few of them are actually not bad 🙂🙂🙂🙂
A-10.... th-cam.com/video/JaZXmT6JJuc/w-d-xo.html
@@JeffsRCClips thanks!
To my eyes, went exactly as planned. Ground runup, control check, smooth t/o, stay close to the pattern and nothing can go wrong... even when it does.
Is this Hemet?
Arvada, Colorado
Wow! That's one big ass Sabre. I can't imagine how much it costs.

When it went out of camera shot I really thought it had crashed somewhere, that was a relief ;-) nice gliding !
@@Po11358 Another keyboard critic. 🙄
Nice save Brian!
beautiful plane and rc flying skills
Best sounding RC jet I"ve ever heard. (Seriously -- before it cut out) Sounded like the real thing as it was flying downwind.
Saved a lot of money by landing it. Well done!
What a beauty!!! Best F86 I've seen!
Glad you liked it.... 🙂
@@JeffsRCClips I wrote it before watching the hole video. I would feel like winning a lottery ticket that day! Nicely done, You rock!!!
Was it a flame out or a mechanical failure? I think I heard metal to metal contact as she comes to a stand. Awesome model though. It takes some serious guts to put so much money into the air and hopefully bring it back down again.
I know what your saying... I worry about my $300 planes... 🙄🙄🙄
Great pilot , and the video is good also ,
Thanks a lot! I agree, the plane and the pilot are fantastic. 🙂
I love crashes but that was a relief it got back in one piece. A beautiful aeroplane.🇦🇺👍
Beautiful save! Very well done indeed.
Flame out. Nice recovery.
Flame outs can be scary! The recovery was brilliant.
Glad you enjoyed the video! Please, if you enjoy this content consider subscribing. It would mean the world too me! 🙏🏻
The sigh of relief at the end says it all!!!
Beautiful jet!
It sure is! Thanks for watching.
Did the pilot practice engine failure in the circuit? Good flying!
YAY good deadstick!
Video had a bad ending! Couldn't see through all the advertised videos!
Insect strike?

Excellent dead stick landing.

It's always that last time that gets you... 🙂
@@JeffsRCClips ...pushing the limit always comes with risk. It’s the spice of life.
The guy holding the jet is more of a problem , blocking the air intake , I don,t call that , " PAYING ATTENTION ". Beautiful looking WarBird
Great Save love the groan at the end, lol.
People that are quick to criticize, are usually people who can't do it themselves. Great job all around.
Thank you.
Seeing this brought back memories.The first plane That I repaired the radar on was the F86 just shortly before they were sent to Korea.
I'm glad you enjoyed it Robert.... 🙂
Great recovery. Like from the real life. The rule says: If you are on a airport circuit you can always make an emergency landing! 🙂
Wow what a beautiful aircraft!
I wonder what this plane costs. Probably more than a top of the line hangglider
Not sure how this ended up in my recommendations, but glad it did. Don’t be hard on yourself... I would have dropped the camera! Cheers, John
Thanks John... Not as much hard on myself as got tired of dealing with stupid comments so I stated the obvious. They were lighting up my phone at least every five minutes... And to be sure, as far as the video goes, there are dozens and dozens that aren't too bad... Thanks again and enjoy... 🙂
Stand behind it and you'll never need an epilady🔥
So happy she will fly another day. What a beauty.
Jeff, do you know why the engine quit?
Not sure.... Probably air bubble in the fuel supply?
That is one gorgeous acft...
Yes it is.... Lot's more inside :)
The plane picked a decent point to deadstick. Nice save!
Hey, he landed it safely, and it lives to fly again.
Nice save.
Indeed!
Looked pretty good to me.
He's standing there with his leg blocking the air intake with the jet at full throttle, that can damage the engine very quickly.
Those power lines look close at the end of the runway!
I just checked it on Google Earth... It's 913 feet from the end of the runway to the closest utility pole. The full zoom in on the plane makes them look closer than they are. You really don't even think about them when flying. Hope you enjoying the videos.
Great landing old son.
Sabre from the 50’s beautiful then and beautiful now , big or small . 🇺🇸👍
Every time I see the Saber I think of the movie The Last Chase!
Nice save!! Beautiful airplane!!
Yes it was!
Perfect “dead stick” landing..
Beautiful airplane, impressive flight, brilliant landing.
Indeed it is!
nice landing!
Yes it was!
Of note is the glide performance of larger models. If this had been 2/3rds the size it wouldn't have got back to the runway. You cant beat the Reynolds numbers.
Mr. Dorfman agrees.
Great dead stick landing! It can happen any time.
Superb model , but nothing miraculous about a dead stick landing !

What I just saw?
NEVER! take your eyes off the plane!
Textbook deadstick ......full sized or RC
Nice dead stick landing!
