WOW! What a beauty! This aircraft has a special place in my heart. I am 76 years old, and have had a lifelong affair with aviation (26 years in the USAF, private pilot). My very first model airplane back in the 1950's, was an Aurora F6F Hellcat! It is such a pleasure to see this beautiful model fly! Thanks for sharing this moment with others!
I built just about every ww2 model plane I could find when I was a kid. Loved the era. That is THE COOLEST model plain I've ever seen.thanks for sharing. Drop the 'f' bomb after it crashes. Excellent landing!
That was really cool. A bunch of retired pilots from the nearby base used to get together and fly planes like that at a commercial sod company field near me. I loved watching them with my Papa on Saturdays.
i always wonder how these guys able to contrl RC so smoothly. The angle and distance from where you are controlling plane is so disorienting when trying to align the aircraft to the runaway.
Beautiful model! Those Moki radials sure sound great!My father flew Hellcats in the Pacific during the war. Just one point, they were painted a much darker blue over grey.
Great aircraft, great engine- such a nice, deep, heavy sound! I'm hoping someone out there eventually will install 2 Moki radials in a large scale F7F Tigercat. I've seen nice looking Tigercats with (the horror) electric motors but I couldn't get too excited about those. Thanks for showing us your awesome Hellcat. Grumman Ironworks forever!
Are you kidding?!? That was absolutely amazing. I was watching that with the kind of pride as though I'd actually done something... HUGE hats off to you! And thank you for sharing!
Why would anyone give this video a thumbs down? Well videoed, clear, slow pan. The 'pilot' does a great job....Kudos to all and thanks for posting. Cheers from Canada.
@Jim Goose my excuse for that is my eyesight would not pass a aviation medical. But I fly RC aircraft. Largest has a five foot wingspan. Which is difficult to transport about. A trailer is one option. My other is buy an old Transit. Pondering both at the moment. Here in the uk we have from memory a 7 .5kg weight limit. That Hellcat is a great model flown well.
I knew that field looked familiar. Went to a fly in there in around 01-3? Remember quiet flyer magazine was there and a man brought his half finished massive wingspan b17. My dad took me, he passed this last year. .brings back alot of memories.
So excellent thank you for filming this I know you have many many thousands of hours and dollars in this hobby and I just want to tell you you made my day
You have got to go to a museum and see the real deal. They are amazing. I saw one at the Moody Gardens Air Museum in Galveston. Some air shows have them and if you get there before the start of the show they usually let you see the planes up close and talk to the owner. I think it's a great learning experience and I hope you get to see one someday.
Everyone has covered all the great aspects of this plane and video.. but man those trees on the end of the runway seemed to be getting closer and taller every second ! hahaha great vid.
Some how, even as I have studied the conflict as 1941 -1945 Pacific conflict WW2, I did not fully understand the "hellcat" potential as air combat to IJN *zero (zeke), until I watched this RC model fly. What a power and effortless solid...design. That Moaki engine....well....makes it come alive....and return to the air war, of the S. Pacific. Well done....and alive to my view. M.
Great flying, one thing I noticed though was the running up with the guys just over in the edge of the prop arc. If that sheds a blade it would pretty much go straight through you!
I find these videos both comical watching the arms crossed pose of the guys in the trailer next to them and intriguing. That was a beautifully handled flight and loved the sound. I gotta wonder how much that puppy weighs. My wife is probably going to leave me when I pursue RC. I'm not confident enough to fly and will instead go with a boat.

That was awesome to watch. I'd love to see 'first person' footage from a Gopro attached to the top of that Hellcat, if the small additional weight wouldn't offset the manoeuvrability.
It’s AWESOME SEEING OVER HERE! directly watching you from ROMA con AMOR. Very Nice passing time you do have at the outdoor, sir. How much more seeing what you’re doing actually by coming to you Very nearly?
Epic landing! What a fun hobby, good job filming. Dying to know what it would look like with a go-pro on the plane ✈️? The video we saw then the same flight from the fuselage. Thanks for the dream.

The most deep, throaty sound for an RC plane I've ever heard. Awesome!
It sounds like a real Radial engine. OP, can you tell us what engine is in that thing?
I was just thinking that too! Some of the flybys are hard to tell that its not a real aircraft.
@@charleswaters455 moki engines are radials.
@@craigbrewer433 I'm looking at it now. Wow. It's beautiful and EXPENSIVE!
That's the Unmistakable sound of a Moki ;)
That was oddly satisfying. F'n AWESOME landing....LIKE a PRO!
I agree with others: very realistic sound of the engine and incredible pilot skills. Very nice landscape 👍👍👍
This is insanely impressive, from the build to the flight - well done!
Nothing sounds like a radial! I could listen to one all day!

One of the best landings I've seen. Congrats on a cool Hellcat. Very nice build and the flying of it.
Damn ! It even SOUNDS like the real radial piston-engine airplane starting up.
It sure did. And this is what kind of engine?
@@jamesglass5402 it's a Moki S300 radial engine
Easy answer. That's because it is!
Smooth landing! That took some skill. Looks like it actually had flaps down too!
Jim
i always wonder how these guys able to contrl RC so smoothly. The angle and distance from where you are controlling plane is so disorienting when trying to align the aircraft to the runaway.
near perfect 3 point landing. and it was nice and slow too, exactly like a carrier landing.
😄👍❤ Man, that plane has that classic WWII engine sound. Great looking model. Loved the video, thanks.
The engine along in that plane runs around $5,000 !!
Impressive set up !
Sounds bad ass ...
Beautiful model! Those Moki radials sure sound great!My father flew Hellcats in the Pacific during the war. Just one point, they were painted a much darker blue over grey.

I see the youtube algorithm has brought us all here. I will see all of you in 5 years.
I'm from year 3420
Al Gore has no rhythm. And he did not bring me here.
I’m in the bathroom at Chick-fil-A. The spicy chicken sandwich brought me here, not youtube
@@leolldankology If my calculations are correct.....you are in the FUTURE!!
I was brought here by conspiracy
That was incredibly cool
Why would anyone give this video a thumbs down? Well videoed, clear, slow pan. The 'pilot' does a great job....Kudos to all and thanks for posting. Cheers from Canada.
This Hellcat is so realistic visually and soundwise that it could be used in a Hollywood WWII movie.
I know! Crazy how much it does look and sound like the real thing,
@P Pp WTF are you talking about?
if u look at the 1/6 scale pilot figure, one realizes the Hellcat was one of the largest single engine prop planes in WW2
It's not that damn realistic
@@deuce4249 Thanks you for commenting. Now sit down and STFU
You know you're taking your hobby to the next level when you need a trailer for transport. o_O
Lmfao
@Jim Goose Maybe hes afraid of Heights
... next level, when you're flying in the middle of a frickin' forest!
@Jim Goose my excuse for that is my eyesight would not pass a aviation medical. But I fly RC aircraft. Largest has a five foot wingspan. Which is difficult to transport about.

What about motorbike racers?
Beautiful plane, great sound, perfect landing, nice area!
At idle, with sub woofer on and eyes closed, sounded almost like an F6F.
I like the 2 guys in the back. They be like "I love that shit and I want one". Me too.
I knew that field looked familiar. Went to a fly in there in around 01-3? Remember quiet flyer magazine was there and a man brought his half finished massive wingspan b17. My dad took me, he passed this last year.
.brings back alot of memories.
Probably the nicest Hellcat I've ever seen. I sincerly hope this bad-boy is still flying.
First thought that popped in my mind... "My Hampster would love riding in that!" 😆
That's the best sounding engine I have ever heard! And I've been a gas and diesel technician for over 23 years! I have driven a lot of super cars too!
Does it have a muffler, I wonder?
So excellent thank you for filming this I know you have many many thousands of hours and dollars in this hobby and I just want to tell you you made my day
Nice landing! I know nothing about RC models, but my Dad flew F6Fs in combat in 1944, so it's a treat to see one.
You have got to go to a museum and see the real deal. They are amazing. I saw one at the Moody Gardens Air Museum in Galveston. Some air shows have them and if you get there before the start of the show they usually let you see the planes up close and talk to the owner.

Should get some cameras mounted inside and fly like he was in the cockpit..
I've been thinking/dreaming about something like this, maybe with VR style goggles... immagine having a Zero there to then 1v1 dogfigthing :)
Yea watching a dot in the sky is o well not to impressive
That's exactly what I was thinking!
@@Flanomax it's called fpv, check out the DJI fpv set up. Your dream is now realized. You're welcome.
@@2strokeme64 cheers man, much apprechiated!
That is one bad ass RC Hellcat! It looks so authentic and the sound of that motor is fantastic!
Beautiful video, beautiful sound and beautiful landing. It was great to watch.
Beautiful plane and engine. Nice flying and landing, too.
Really cool to watch! Thx. Nice flying, and a fantastic landing. Nicely done!
Everyone has covered all the great aspects of this plane and video.. but man those trees on the end of the runway seemed to be getting closer and taller every second ! hahaha great vid.
Can't say thanks enough for taking the time to share such a great video! That airplane is absolutely gorgeous!
飛行姿もエンジン音もとても素晴らしいです。最高！！ （The flight appearance and engine sound are very wonderful. it's the best! !!）This document uses Google Translate.
That landing was perfect! I had to watch it a couple times good job
i gotta be honest i love the sound of those moki engines :D
I love the sound of that engine...
Good job guys. Beautiful model of an iconic aircraft and expertly flown.
No doubt that’s a 4-stroke radial. You will never get that kind of sound out of a 2-stroke. Great sound, great build and great flying!
I don't think they make a 4 stroke engine for rc models.
beautiful plane , sound , piloting , and video !
Thanks for sharing !
Very good landing! It looks like you could use a bit more rudder when turning, makes the turn more coordinated.
Some how, even as I have studied the conflict as 1941 -1945 Pacific conflict WW2, I did not fully understand the

Wow! Absolutely beautiful. She sounds amazing too.
That was an awesome flight and landing, great plane, great pilot
Excellent pilot! Landing just could not have been better!
Love that sound. Only thing missing is the 4 blade prop
Man, that's a scary runway... those threes at the end of the runway is really scary when taking off against'em
Imagine how the person in the cockpit feels.
@@RichWeigel OMG hilarious comment 🤣🤣
“Ok this is his last chance to land before the video ends.”
I never seen a hobby plane the size of this monster. That was awesome !
That was AWESOME !!! Only thing missing was a tail hook and a guy out at the end of the runway with paddles.
Best sounding rc plane ive ever heard.
I know they make bigger but damn that's a big RC. Sound great too. I've flown the smaller ones as a kid and this thing is easily twice the size.
Great flight and beautiful landing.
I find these videos both comical watching the arms crossed pose of the guys in the trailer next to them and intriguing. That was a beautifully handled flight and loved the sound. I gotta wonder how much that puppy weighs. My wife is probably going to leave me when I pursue RC. I'm not confident enough to fly and will instead go with a boat.
Thanks for the entertaiment Beautiful hobby !
Holy balls that's amazing. I'd love to come page pics and video sometime!
Not sure why I'm here but I'm here... lol
Lost in TH-cam
Yep
Future air shows......
Hellcat looks great and sounds great!!!! Fun video, Thank you!
That was impressive. What a landing!
Damn, thought I was back out on a boat in the Pacific!
Wow! I was really trying to figure out how he was gonna land this without crashing. I was impressed
kind of even sounds like a real one,
Fully concur!
What a great demonstration
It is a real one. Only tiny
It is actually a full sized Hellcat operated by giants!
@@paulharris553 Great comment. Should replace pinup girl painted on cowl with Godzilla.
What a beautiful engine sound, it seems from a real scale airplane
Well done perfect flight.
That's slicker than snot on a doorknob! Great flight!
They should have like a nascar version of this lol. You know that would be rad asf.

Outstanding job, gentlemen! You did the Hellcat proud! 5Stars.
After she made her last past, it sounded so realistic. Unreal! And, it was a perfect landing, too. Again, outstanding job!!!👍
Perfect landing. And ofcourse a very nice machine!
Excellent pilot skills. Awesome engine !
Lovely control you have, beautiful hellcat.
Beautiful plane Jon...Nice flying
Tuned in for the Moki, stayed for the beautiful flight and weather.
Dude that was SWEET!!!! Great landing .
Wow, he landed it so beautifully.
That's a beautiful thing to watch!
That was awesome to watch.
I'd love to see 'first person' footage from a Gopro attached to the top of that Hellcat, if the small additional weight wouldn't offset the manoeuvrability.
Perfect,so beautiful,looks like Bearcat second war war (RCL Veterans)🇺🇸🇨🇦🇫🇷🇬🇧
That is the coolest thing I’ve seen in a long time... now that’s a hobby
Great job all around. I enjoyed the air show. Later.
Thats amazing it actually sounds like a mini radial engine
Us big boys we love our toys :-) I really enjoyed that, thanks.
It’s AWESOME SEEING OVER HERE! directly watching you from ROMA con AMOR. Very Nice passing time you do have at the outdoor, sir. How much more seeing what you’re doing actually by coming to you Very nearly?
Dude you don't mess around.Incredible.
It even sounds like an old warbird, very cool!
I knew I recognized this area! This is in my hometown MONROE!! REPRESENT! REEEEEE!
Epic landing! What a fun hobby, good job filming. Dying to know what it would look like with a go-pro on the plane ✈️? The video we saw then the same flight from the fuselage. Thanks for the dream.
that was so awesome flying. I have a 13 year old boy who would love to get in to this kinda thing.
Looks and sounds like the real thing!
From Wiki: The Grumman F6F Hellcat is an American carrier-based fighter aircraft of World War II. Designed to replace the earlier F4F Wildcat and to counter the Japanese Mitsubishi A6M Zero, it was the United States Navy's dominant fighter in the second half of the Pacific War, outdueling the faster Vought F4U Corsair, which had problems with carrier landings.
Powered by a 2,000 hp (1,500 kW) Pratt & Whitney R-2800 Double Wasp, the same powerplant used for both the Corsair and the United States Army Air Forces (USAAF) Republic P-47 Thunderbolt fighters, the F6F was an entirely new design, but it still resembled the Wildcat in many ways. Some military observers tagged the Hellcat as the "Wildcat's big brother".
The F6F made its combat debut in September 1943, and was best known for its role as a rugged, well-designed carrier fighter, which was able to outperform the A6M Zero and help secure air superiority over the Pacific theater. A total of 12,275 were built in just over two years.
That thing sound like the real dealio. What an engine!
Nice plane and you sure can fly like Hell!!
Excellent job!!! Enjoyed watching.
Very awesome. I'm hooked from one video.
Beautiful. Throaty sound. Nailed that three pointer. Perfection
Wow, Taking off like that is asking for all kinds of trouble!!! Use the power you have!!!!!!
That was so awesome! I felt like i was flying with it!
Nothing sounds better than a Moki 300!
