Such graceful moves for a replica of a killing machine.
Congratulations ! You realized with your flight display the most dear and hidden thing from professor Willy Messerschmitt heart - The true love inspired by The Beauty of Flight. Thank you.
Why slow motion!?
I would never have expected such an amazing result from an underwing glider, wow,
I've seen slope soaring once in my life & found it beautiful. Almost as nice as sailing, where you get to actually ride the craft!
I like the painting. It's a beauty.
The count before mine was 109 so I was hesitating to comment ... but it is just to nice seeing a Yellownose on a coastguard mission .. without the screaming Mercedes . in lustfull harmony :)
The hand launch said a lot about how lightweight the model is. Very impressive.
Bushcraft and Survival for sure - it's only 9 lbs! flies in light winds
Very cool ‼️
Thank you Mary and steve. Perfectly balanced.👏👏👏👍
This is just great. Havent seen anything like this before. Thanks for posting this video and greetings from Slovenia, Pilot Robert
Hello
Sehr schönes Model. RESPEKT
This was awesome
UAVfutures G’DAYYYY haha
Very interesting and Well executed 👍
What beautiful aircraft. I almost enjoy these as much as powered flight.
Very nice; clever. Wonderful idea and design. Thank you.
I love the music

He's great, probably the most used composer on TH-cam
Crazy, I had a Hobbyzone BF-109 electric r/c and it flew like a "wet brick". Went and bought a T-28 Trojan and it flew superb
Nice
Having read through all the comments, both positive and negative I think Pilot Robert's 'This is just great ' sums it up beautifully. As a note I thought it was filmed at North Cornwall until the credits.
That is sooooooo cool!!!
Looks weird at that scale, but you can't tell when its flying. That's awesome.
Beautiful
To me, the Bf-109 is always a pretty airplane. I prefer the rounded wing tip versions such as this "F" model (maybe a "G" ?), over the earlier "E", the rounded wing tips taking away the edginess of the square winged Messerschmitts. Wonderful glider, well done.
I always thought a warbird floating around just doesn't look right
same
Amazing
Muy bonito y relajante sin motor, saludos desde España
(Translation: "Very nice and relaxing without motor, greetings from Spain")
Good
That landing though!
Yeah, the rotor can exceed the roll rate on landing and spoil an otherwise perfect flight :)
Strange view 🤣so calm and gentle
Hey. Was that a 4 point landing at the end ?
Left wing tip, nose , right wing tip, and rudder? 🙄
Nah. I am just being a smart ass.
I hope that you've fixed the damages, and that the bird is back in the air. 👍
That's some nice smart-assing! lol
All is well. If it can be built, it can be fixed :)
@@yanmanman
True to that. Happy landings.
Super low wing load is the key
Excellent 〰️☠️♠️🚬
wow nice plane
Lovely model lots of effort. Classic tip stall keep the nose down till touch..Good luck for next time.
for sure, but it's tough since there's a bit of a rotor there, certainly a rapid drop in windspeed near the ground near the edge - it keeps us on our toes and we usually land further back from the edge
i tried to watch this and fell asleep on the shitter.
The world is a better place for your sharing.
Are the main-plane wings longer? And what is the scale, or are there any changes in the scale please?
not sure - i would refer to the newsletters and/or club links in the description for more info, thx
Be interesting to see on a slope with more lift and some ballast a fighter that size looks best with lots of energy, my Mig15 can float about in light lift like that but on a big lift slope really hauls along. The video of my Mig 21 shows it on a similar light lift slope, luffing about planes like these look impressive with energy, just the wind doesn’t always allow. Will make another Mig with a ducted fan for those windless days next.
Willy would smile...
Awhile ago. Do you have any plans for sale?
check the links in description above for some of the history of the model, and contact the guys at SJMFC - they should be helpful
Pity about the landing, hope the wing held up
If it can be built, it can be repaired, and it was! :)
Really nice plane sir, Feels like on wwII
Good!!!!
Where do they sell?
Check the description for information on the custom build. Thx
Beautiful model, and overall nice piloting. It does look a bit weird though, a warbird making turns like a sailplane, and almost hovering at times.
RC-Fan NL agreed - if I had flown it, I'm afraid i would've ripped the wings off her
plus, turning into the wind like that makes it look like zero ground speed, which it is actually
Just needs some ballast 👍
How did it fare on landing?
just very minor wingtip damage
Commander you can tell me that it is done this plane? Ferry or Styrofoam ? You did that?
not my plane - check the info section above for more details and articles - it is mostly Balsa construction i think
Any idea what the weight of that was and the windspeed?
i just added 2 additional pdf links in description -
about 9 lbs i think, and winds were perhaps 15 knots and steady -

@@yanmanman Thanks! My 71" F-100 is ready for maiden. Its 8.8 lbs and i have no idea what kind of wind would be good so that is really awesome hearing the 15 knots! thanks man!
@@thenatedog oooh, interesting - there's no better test than to hold up the plane to feel whether the wind lift is sufficient - the plane will sort of fly in your hand, and you can feel both lift and drag with the plane still balanced with the fore-fuse held lightly in your hand prior to launch - sounds like it may be more of a 20 knot plane, but depends on the slope as well - glide ratio is not affect by weight, so it comes down to slope steepness and wind speed
@@yanmanman Yeah, cant wait. Will maiden it in may. forum.flitetest.com/index.php?threads/f-100-super-sabre-1-8th-build-70.37285/
Tip stall at the end?
Channel - yes, the wind speed drops near the ground with a slight rotor at places - you have to push, push, push, and land with some ground speed there
Oh, no! You broke it!
It's ok now, they fixed it!
Unglaublich wie lange das Modell saegelflugfähig war. Natürlich drehte es im Klippenaufwind seine Kreise, aber die Me 109 war ja nie als Segelflugzeug konstruiert, dafür war die Flächenbelastung viel zu hoch. Auch das Modell hat daher zu kleine Tragflächen um "segeln" zu können. Es geht daher nur in ein er kräftigen Aufwindzone.
How many minutes can you soar for on one battery? I imagine you can get upwards of 20 minutes or more.
not sure what he has in that plane, but with modern lipo batteries, hours and hours of flight, basically all day, are possible since there's no motor. it used to be that the transmitter batt would give out after a couple hours using old nicads
Beautiful model but looks unusual to see a fighter plane gliding so slowly.
indeed - i think the term for this class is "floating gasbag" to quote a fellow flyer :)
Never understood the point of pss just my opinion but it's just not scale flying and too many restrictions
It´s like driving a formula one car with bicycle wheels
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
That just seems wrong visually. It should be screaming across the sky dive bombing, not gracefully slope soaring. ;)
Dave Greathouse. Use your imagination. It flies, so there is 90% of it done for you.
It's a scale model soarer. Fly it scale please. All that stage make-up and just a silly basic floating act ending in a sloppy exit. The flying should be kinetic with tighter management.
Dave Greathouse Ha ha. It wasn't a dive bomber. It was a fighter. Glad to help.
Ctrl-Z exactly.
yeah, some refer to such planes as "floating gasbags, lol, wouldn't do well in a dogfight - myself, i'm partial to aerodynamics and higher speeds, but these guys adapted it as a lightweight conversion from rubber band powered model and for smaller hills and light to moderate winds and cannot take the stress of even a loop - scale flying a 1/4 scale model would require very high winds and larger hills and a much heavier model although some guys are doing amazing diving and climbing at cliffs in california with large heavy models - maybe someday :)

Q: from Ukrainian to English --> "With your winds, you can fly without a motor"
A: Yes
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Controllable_slope_soaring
Не иыига змеи! Хорошо!
mm?
translates to "Not a snake! Good!" (from Russian)?
thanks?
Who said that any plane can be a glider
probably a slope pilot must have said it? lol
Swastika on the fin :/
IT WAS STILL IS BEST FIGHTER
glenn maidhof no, it wasn't.
this is wrong on so many levels, to see a BF109 going slow is just not right. Put an engine in that thing
Someone else said something similar, but this is an extremely light and flimsy plane meant to be a rubber powered model, with very low wing loading, so it flies like a floating gas bag. Ballasting it with weight would let it slope faster, but it might not survive the wing loading. There are other smaller PSS models including 109s that zip around much faster if you check some of the other videos for Lawrencetown Slope Fest.
pilot was flying it like a little scared girly
You have no idea what you're talking about. You commented like a loser troll. If you think you're an aerodynamics expert, do go on about light balsa air frames and wing loading in a windy slope soaring environment. We can't wait.
B A D A S S
PLEASE, put an engine in it. It is a really nice model but a slope gliding Bf 109 is absolutely horrible. :0((((
this was originally to be rubber powered - it's incredibly light and wouldn't handle any great speed or additional wing loading - they don't dare try loops with it -

...then you'll understand
dont listen to galdramadur1 there are loads of videos of powered 109's but this is one of the only glider vid. Brilliant love the originality and it looks so real and majestic love it love it love it.
everyone will have their fav niche, but all the diff types of flying is one of the great things about R/C - this big plane is cool to see floating right in front of you, and of course, there's plenty of fast high performance models as well if you want excitement
yanmanman. Geez why didn't you use flapping butterfly wings. ha ha. Really though, great flight. It was like slo mo real.
Complètement ridicule !!!
