Wow. Not only did Clinton do an amazing job bringing that plane down with VERY little damage, but it's a real testament to he and his father's design and building skills that the plane was that rugged and yet light-weight. And then they get it flying again that afternoon?? Simply fantastic. Great job all around.
The models I used to "try" to fly were line controlled in circles with .049 engines and the like. A Ram jet on line control in 1960 was the a crowd magnet. Can you guess how long ago that has been? Boy, am I impressed with Clinton's plane and expertise in flying it! Great Job!! Thorhild, Alberta, Canada.
Great flying Clinton - that is a fantastic model and you are to be congratulated. Well done and thanks for posting it up so we could enjoy watching it. Top landing too.
I am impressed at how well that model just hung nose high in the air at stall speeds. Those older Russian jets have very primitive lines about them being boxy and to the point in design features, and past decent piloting I suspect that was a factor that helped stabilize things making it salvageable. Cool deal
wow my friend what a plane! what a nice flight! and top notch video! You made that flight and landing look easy. congrats to you and your fantastic building skils. I love the fox bat. never seen one in RC before.. I have one but not flying yet. 36inch wing span so it will never fly. just wanted to build one.
Since I know a little bit about aviation, I will say this. To the uninitiated, this may not look like much of a "crash" video. But if you did know a little something about aviation, you'd realize the fantastic skill of the pilot to land this aircraft in a controlled crash that did little to no damage to the aircraft itself. GREAT JOB PILOT! Amazing!
@@Mr.Wednesday. Most toys are not turbine powered. The Air Force calls them call drone pilots. To the OP who may or may not be with us any longer, after nearly a decade awaiting your carefully constructed reply: The model aircraft was clearly placed in a deep-stall by the pilot, who pulled nearly full up elevator upon losing thrust, a poor pilot indeed. The model transitioned through the post-stall instability region where he had to correct the wing rocking, and ended up in a stable deep stall that was probably unrecoverable.
@@Triple_J.1 dude… please there’s a MASSIVE difference between drone pilot and a hobby wiener. I don’t call myself a monster truck driver ffs lol, I call myself a rc car nerd. My father is a pilot, he captains 777s across the pond with 400 people and a crew of 20. He spends hours in the simulator, being checked, doing reoccurring training. He went to ground scool, got a license…. A real pilot.
@@Mr.Wednesday. At what size would you call a drone pilot a pilot then because there are many different sizes and a bunch of them have to get a license hours in sims getting checked At what sisze would you call them a drone pilot how big does the drone have to be
@@samuelsnowdon2271 I would say you’re not a pilot unless the government gives you a license and you have government sanctioned training, and that’s just for weekend warriors, you’re not a real pilot unless you need to get medicals and reoccurring training to maintain you’re license. I don’t care if the drone’s as small as my brain or as huge as my penis… y’aint a pilot unless the FAA says so.
Great kid, even greater model - I see complicated bulkheads on some RC's and a crash in them can make for expensive and time consuming repair jobs, but that simple design was effective and easy to repair - what you need on the flying field. Thankfully your mig25 stalled flat, a godsend in this situation, fistful of luck was an understatement - best of luck and congrats to Clinton!
you dont see that too often when A bog rc jet like this goes down with a engine failure that you can retrieve it and mend it back together and fly it again in the same day. Hats off to Clinton on a great build and great flying skills
i love the way you make ur vidioes. most otheres would leave in heaps of the first succesful flight and put the tiny bit of crash at the end which i hate whereas u get straight in to it and leave lots of recovery video in there.
Kudos for the pilot. Making good decisions and landing with a cool head, keeping attitude and leveling the belly at the last second, not many pilots can do that.
Very nice flying with the engine out! And that was quite an understatement about it being a durable design. I'm curious - was the left engine kept at full thrust? In most (all?) real planes the added power & speed can give enough rudder authority to overcome the yaw induced by the engine-out, but in this case it looked like the yaw from the remaining engine was overpowering the rudders. Maybe this model needs more rudder area or deflection so it can remain under control during engine-out?
good effort mateee.. its good too see a young person with the brains and skill to design and build then go out and fly his own creation.. Where most people his age stuggle too drive and automatic car.. good work
Wow it crashed but survived. It couldn't of came down in a more appropriate angle than that. Very solid plane. Im sure we will be seeing much more of this plane once completed. Great video thanks for sharing! Also "xjet" is that you behind the camera? Never heard you talk before. lol
The last time I came to know of flying a Full scale Jet power ( twin jet ) was some tens years ago highlighted in an RC Magazine involving two pilots to fly and that Jet plane was the largest as claimed by the Magazine. It was also sponsored by Italian air line - Allitalia. The pilots were all mid aged top pilots, but this one...........only 18 year old...!!!! Unbelievable indeed.......Cheers...!!!
Can't agree with you at all on that. The plane was too low and close to those trees to risk doing much of anything else than what he did. The small amount of damage speaks for itself. I call that a great save. Plus a lot of luck, of course! :)
Fantastic performance..!!! Three cheers to the Pilots..... By the way, how many Pilots involved in the flying of this unit. Two or three ?? Thank you. Bob Lee - Malaysia
@xjet Well said, xjet ... sadly, critics like this tool make negative comments only to give the illusion that they know what they're talking about and have no appreciation for the long hours spent before putting a nice piece like this into the air. I was very happy to see it back flying after the earlier mishap.
where were the remote control search aircraft and choppers... and RC fire trucks?? Gee hate to see such a great machine broken. good to see you got it going again.
Well, it sure made a good and quick recovery. A real one would have been finished! The shots of it flying where it looks like it's actually up in the clouds are great!
I guess it's one of the hardest things to learn for a teenager. Not flying, but how to answer a question put to you without mumbling and feeling self-conscious.
sick plane what website do you get the planes from dude i mean gosh their so awesome and nice or it is so awesome and nice and not their because this is the only vid i have seen so far yet dude LOLZ ya
What's great about this model is that unlike many other RC jets this has some weight to support. You notice the effect at take off and landing as there isn't any blowing around going on. I don't know what you would call this effect but it has always annoyed me with scaled flight but this model seems to have avoided that issue and I can only assume it is to do with the size and weight.
Why did the pilot not drop the nose whilst turning sharp right as soon he lost power? Just kept the nose up stalling it. Or did he not realise he had lost a engine?
Never flown an rc jet, and physics doesn't scale well. But.... had a compressor stall on the real thing and procedure is always the same. Gotta be moving forward to generate lift, every airplane has a glide slope. Which is always slower to the ground than dropping like a stone due to a stall.
James Evans RC Planes are very lightly built, so they don't drop that fast. If you keep them level, at the end of the drop there will actually build up a cushion of air that may be sufficient to keep the drop from being catastrophic. Having too much horizontal speed may make you hit something (tree, bush) with much more momentum and do much more damage.
***** The problem is, the pilot couldn't see where the plane would come down to "flare altitude" (obscured by the ridge). It's safer to come down vertically on the cushion below the large wing than still be moving forward and then hit an unseen obstacle at a much higher speed than the vertical drop generates.
I suppose we simply have different ideas of what "dead stick" means. Where I'm from, dead stick either means the engine(s) shut off, or has/have lost sufficient power to keep the plane in the air. Yes, I was talking about the crash landing. The MIG-25 is no glider, so to set it down the way he did with what appeared to be minimal damage was quite impressive.
Incredible!!! Robust frame. Skillful RC pilot with iron nerves! Survives such a crash with almost no damage!!!
Well done Clinton! Respect!
VERY nice! Beautiful plane, nice flying, and it's amazing that you got it back up in the air the same day as that crash.

Great flying during the flame out! Glad he saved the plane. 18 yrs old... Incredible!
Wow, it floated really well. It must have very light wing loading.
Good save!
foam?
Of all the rc videos on youtube this looks the most realistic.Well done and nice smooth flying regardless of approach and landing.Cheers
I can't believe how small those mig 25's are. Hope the pilot survived. Why did he not eject? My brother died the exact same way. Scary.
I think the pilot is alien being.
It’s an rc...
@@aviationnerd5388
Woosh! Thank you captain obvious.
It’s a rc plane not a real plane. Ik it’s real irl but this one is rc…..

Stunning. And KUDOS to the cameraman. Well done! Thanks for posting.
Glad the damage wasn't too bad, nice emergency landing actually. Nice model and great piloting later in the clip.
i have to say they did an amazing job so have a jet so large and stable and make it look like the real thing. Nice vid guys
Clintion will go much further in life, than most. He knows how to make something happen even when it is going bad.
Brilliant video. Excellent build and nice piece of flying too. Wear well.
they also replicated the reliability, just like the real thing
Haha x)
Helps its twin engine, fixed wing ;)
i love the way you make ur vidioes. most otheres would leave in heaps of the first succesful flight and put the tiny bit of crash at the end which i hate whereas u get straight in to it and leave lots of recovery video in there.
Oustanding job to Clinton...to build, fly, manage the crash and return to the air...well done mate
Nicely done fellas. I'm sorry that you experienced this failure. You did a great job on it and just give it another try.
What a beautiful landing at 7:32
Kudos for the pilot. Making good decisions and landing with a cool head, keeping attitude and leveling the belly at the last second, not many pilots can do that.
Excellent Flight and rebuild to fly again the same day. Very nice landing as well. Thank you for sharing.
What an amazing job getting the plane back up in the air and making another sortie, after the very controlled crash. Nice.
Very cool - and well flown! I like the sound it makes, just like what a real one sounds like I imagine.
Love the sound of that in flight! Great job! Really awesome!!
Shame, that. Glad to see it survived to fly again. Brilliant save.
I love the large scale RC's. Jets are even better.
Very nice flying with the engine out! And that was quite an understatement about it being a durable design.

That aircraft has a very friendly deep stall. Nice design work.
good effort mateee.. its good too see a young person with the brains and skill to design and build then go out and fly his own creation.. Where most people his age stuggle too drive and automatic car.. good work
Wow, such a good pilot. The sound is also great.
Outstanding to see it was up & going again after that very nice crash landing well controlled flew nice aswell.
Wow it crashed but survived. It couldn't of came down in a more appropriate angle than that. Very solid plane. Im sure we will be seeing much more of this plane once completed. Great video thanks for sharing! Also "xjet" is that you behind the camera? Never heard you talk before. lol
At least it landed pretty much intact...Impressive how you got it back up and running so fast!
Молодцы!!! Вот уж не думал что в других странах делают модели наших самолетов. Я ПОРАЖЕН!!!
Lovely model - glad it was not badly damaged :)
Congratulations, It is a good job !
Have many others flying with this RC model
Joe
@xjet You could see him( the pilot) trying to keep it level and not nose dive. Great job!!!
Clinton what is the next project? Can't wait for that film!
So good that there was minimum damage, flew great second time around so all good well done lot of work for a grand result.
that was sooo cool, I love how he manage not to stall or crash to bad with engine failure.
That is great job guys ! I`ve remembered my Army passed experiences with services of real Mig29 .

And big points for actually carrying a fire extinguisher to the scene! Ive seen countless "rescues" without one of these essential items.
Super flying mate!
Very cool!! Only thing missing is the huge afterburner flame out the rear! It looks very real!
Flying this thing in FPV mode with long range video/radio gear would be the ultimate RC experience :-)
...gotta love that about this hobby! Clinton's positive attitude determined his altitude!!!
:-D
Very nice model and takeoff to. Fortunately the fence was unarmed :)
But the second flight is awsome. Really.
Can't agree with you at all on that. The plane was too low and close to those trees to risk doing much of anything else than what he did. The small amount of damage speaks for itself. I call that a great save. Plus a lot of luck, of course! :)
sounds so real and great video
he flew it again, this time with a vengeance. good flying!
Really great! Is it still flying? Is Clint a regular at the field?
Fantastic performance..!!!
Three cheers to the Pilots.....
By the way, how many Pilots involved in the flying of this unit. Two or three ??
Thank you.

He is one lucky person to have that model pancake in like that! Interesting that it was able to maintaing that attitude all the way down.
Nice save! I was just waiting for the tip stall and fireball! It just "parachuted" in like a foamy!
I guess it's one of the hardest things to learn for a teenager. Not flying, but how to answer a question put to you without mumbling and feeling self-conscious.
Nice save!Thumbs up for the pilot!
What a Sound! Unbeliveable rescue. Would be interesting see it painted.

Dude, that was awesome!

Thanks for the translation. Not being from around there it was imposible for me to make it out.
Why did the pilot not drop the nose whilst turning sharp right as soon he lost power? Just kept the nose up stalling it. Or did he not realise he had lost a engine?
Jets don't glide like a conventional plane. Dropping the nose at that height would have just meant hitting the ground faster.
Never flown an rc jet, and physics doesn't scale well. But.... had a compressor stall on the real thing and procedure is always the same. Gotta be moving forward to generate lift, every airplane has a glide slope. Which is always slower to the ground than dropping like a stone due to a stall.

Not bad, impressive, well done felas :)
with a video camera mounted on the vehicle would be pure enjoyment
I suppose we simply have different ideas of what "dead stick" means. Where I'm from, dead stick either means the engine(s) shut off, or has/have lost sufficient power to keep the plane in the air.
Yes, I was talking about the crash landing. The MIG-25 is no glider, so to set it down the way he did with what appeared to be minimal damage was quite impressive.
Pity about that first engine cut crash landing, but what a nice flight and landing 2nd time.
Love that engine roar, sounds a bit like me isn't it?
All-in-all that is an awesome looking jet.
great work guys!!!
Thank you! Now that I know I can also easily hear it.
The military needs one like this, no need for a parachute, just walk away..
You sat that bird down beautifully after flame out, well done, damage could have been much worse.
What is this plane made from and great video
That mig 25 sounds real
Good to see it flying again.
Great expression, I shall be using this. Thank you!
Nice pilot skills Clinton
@rcaddict72 Apart from the wing fences, antennas and weapon provisions, it looks very scale to me. Whats wrong with it?
