- Here is the last flight of KFS's beloved BF-110.
Having just changed the electric engines for 2 x DLE-20 petrols, the plane spun in after a couple of minutes of flight. Further investigation revealed a screw had dropped out which secured the left wing-end section to the aluminium spar. Subsequently, it worked itself loose and rotated. This can be seen if you view the slow-motion footage taken from the ground, pausing the film as the plane rotates.
We love this plane, though. If you're going to build a petrol twin in this class (.91-1.20 each side), those DLE-20s are well worth considering.
Will order a new kit and transfer most of the old stuff into the new, taking special care next time to do our engineering and pre-flight checks more thoroughly. - ยานยนต์และพาหนะ

Some 90 year old vet living on the countryside had a flashback and took it down with a skeet shotgun.
ME 110 crashing in a field in Kent , that was´nt uncommon some years ago.....
nejsig I get that feeling
The onboard engine notes sounded fantastic and the inflight footage was amazing. Sorry that it crashed. Thanks for posting.
Sad to see such a fantastic model crash. All that work! Good to hear a replacement has been finished.

An invisible Spitfire shot it down
XD
Jose A. Romo YES 💪
Or a Hurricane
thanks for some of the best crash footage ever recorded so sorry about the 110 wow it was fine please keep us posted
Sorry for your loss. But that was great on-board footage! Did sound like the props were a little out of sync
Been there, done that as well! Go luck with the new build. We feel for your loss my friend and look forward to future flying fun watching your progress.
That was a great effort - well flown and executed - heartbreaking ! All of us that do this regularly crash, it's just a matter of when. This was worse because even your fine piloting could not save it because of the failure. Those GoPro cameras are amazing for their durability - this is another testament ! Thanks for the onboard view - I video every flight, upload the best takes and can diagnose problems that I could not on the ground (or see what happened FROM the plane !)
Sorry for the lost Major, good to know you're almost done with the rebuild!
Beautiful sounding and flying airplane. Good video with the ground and cockpit views. This kind of thing happens and thanks for sharing the video. Best of luck with the new home for those DLE 20's.
That looked spectacular! So sad that its broken though, it looks amazing!
Well, you got some amazing footage of it atleast. :)
Can't wait for your new plane!
That was great. Thanks for posting. In spite of the wing failure, your effort was a success.
Great model, great attitude! Tragic crash...glad you got another one just like it!
Hey ! the sound of these two from the cockpit, reminds me when flying a Beechcraft 57 Baron. Sound and vibrate almost the same. Nice video!
WoW those twin engines sound amazing, the plane camera really captures the hum and drone that you get from multi engined planes, sad to see the 110 go down,
Sad to see such a beauty go in, i have a mosquito to get finished myself. Love your attitude toward the hobby, some people just get waaaaayyy too angry when they pile one up. As we all know, this can be a pride devouring hobby.
Well that sucks. Sorry to see that. Spectacular footage for whatever its worth. Good attitude, a true RC Pilot. Good luck with version 2.0
I've been an RC pilot since 1980. Love the hobby!!! You have done a beautiful job with the plane as well as the fine editing job on the video. Unfortunately....all of our planes have "expiration" dates. We just don't know when it is. My mentor said to me back in 1980...."there are two kinds of RC planes. Those that have crashed and those that are about to. Sorry for your crash.
And what is the beautiful job one can do on a ARF or RTF model?
I was referring to an actual "Build"....from blueprints and a "lumber yard of wood" in a box. I'm from the old school. I like to build my models. I have some ARF's....but they are not as well built as my other models.

So we agree that other than take the credit card outside the wallet there is not much with building a model.

Carbon like rc models. ARF and RTF models bought the destruction of the hobby. He didnt even bothered to rebuilt it. He bought a new one.
Guardian Observer Right now....60% of my fleet of planes have gone into the ground...most of them were built from plans...I am considering picking up a few ARF's so I have something to fly....Most of my friends, in my club, are engineers and like to build from scratch...to each his own. They build some extraordinary models. Happy Holidays to you.
Happy Christmas also to you.
I agree that unfortunately scratch builders fate is to stay more in workshop and less fly his models.
Wow, the on board sound was really realistic. Would love to shoot thru a canopy to improve the effect. I snapped a spar on my test flight of a 1939 Maxwell Basset Cardinal (free flight with power) I have converted to slope soaring. Then crunched the front end hand launching a test flight into too strong a headwind. It ballooned from I think a CG problem. She's ready again with a strengthened wing and nose. Should be a sweetheart as soon as I master the test glides. We fly at the bluff along the beach here in Long Beach California. Thanks for the great show and happy landings. Paul V
clean cut damage on just one wing after such a crash. seemed very well built.
Damn, what a shame on such a fine model. Best of luck on the next one. Thanks for sharing!
Dissonance between engines cracked it like a wine glass in a Memorex commercial.
I saw that wingtip go straight away. The low passes were stunning.
Fantastic model and a sorry end to the flight - Great looking plane and wish you the best for V2. Regards Peter from Bartons Point Flying Club Kent - we have our "Flying Spectacular" 2nd weekend in July - would love to see you and the new model there if its ready. Good luck Peter.
Thank you for the video. It is obvious that you were quite proud of the plane, What a pity it came to such an ending. I Almost built a model once myself, when I was 15 with balsa wood. That was 60 years ago, and then just when I had the wings in place my dog ruined the lot, after sanding down the nose block and all. I will watch this space for your next flight.
love the slow mo oh DEAR !! awesome
The GoPro was marvelous, why other don't follow suite has got me. Some of these rc models are huge
sounds like a prop broke,if you listen,you can hear it let go,sad to see your hard word die,it happends harder with the twin props. The engines sounded differently also,but they were both running,no stalls.
Man, Sorry for the lose. She was a pure beaut. Great camera work aswell. I can't wait to see the re-maiden.
I like how they put the go pro in the cockpit view
sd card = black box

Is there any difference flying between EPO foam n the traditional balsa...my only guess would be the wing doesnt flex as much for balsa....
Great video apart from the crash. Love the sound of the twin four strokes.
Why only two blades per prop and not the correct 3? More efficient with two?
Thought I heard a Merlin engine just before the loss of control.
Man! That is truly heartbreaking. I feel for you. I lost a few great planes through structural or R/C fail. I bent a few from my one poor piloting, too. Seems there is something new to go wrong in every flight. I had a big (6 ft WS) camera AC that I was using to photograph a large public picknick and the battery pack came undone and broke the ground wire. I had the A/C in a wide left-hand turn- Of course, all servos held steady in that flight configuration and the plane was in a death spiral with an ever-increasing turn, coming lower on one side and higher on the other- after 6 turns, she was nearing head level when she passed over the people. Absolutely nothing I could do about it- I so wished I had brought a shotgun. I just knew it would hit a kid or a lawyer. I rushed over to warn people to get out of the way. Just as I arrived the AC slammed into a large steel trash container. just fifty meters away from the crowd. I was never so thankful to see one of my aircraft crash. I lost a pretty expensive camera and the .90 engine was split I didn't mind at all, I figured I had gotten away cheap. I never again took a job flying near people. That A/C had been so reliable for many jobs, too- Never gave a problem until it really mattered.
That Bf110 looks like a Me410 (Hornisse) is it a mix?
Greetings from Germany.
A diy model of a QF 3.7inch comes to mind. Could be a hell of fun at the next rc airfield.
The on board sound was beautiful.it's a real shame.I tend to stay away from twins but I'm a sucker for a 110.
That was a beautiful plane. Looked so realistic! At least you know the cause and can avoid a repeat. Please upload the new one's maiden when you get there.
Damn!!!
Well documented crash.
wondering why u don't put a parachute in it , for emergency cases just like that
I can hear Sir Laurence Olivier in the back of my head narrating this lol
Yeah gotta use blue loctite on that stuff, you don't realize just how much vibration gets absorbed by the fuselage and wing. Those DLE's sounded nice, Rear intake or side ?
where can i buy one of messerschmitt kit for
Thanks for sharing the video..... lol, hurt me to see her fall & I wonder if you ever
fully determined what caused the frame to fracture on that wing? I know you took
her home & looked close at everything that was left of it..... I thought at first that
you had tried to roll her but I heard a distinct "cracking" of what was the entire
wing. What was learned after you looked at everything closer?
I'm new to the hobby as in... not even bought a plane.
Wondervull plane and a dramatically end, hope you gave it a second chance :)
And it looked tail heavy to get such a spin going tip off or not!
Great video. My brother was doing a video just like this and was in one of the planes that crashed. He died the exact same way. Scary.
That was a BEAUTIFUL airplane. Didn't seem to be loaded up any worse than what it was seeing before the crash. Vibration seperating the left-rear wing joiner? Seemed the the panel was still attached via the spar tube after the crash. Building is fun too but very sorry this one got re-kitted!
Best 3D vid I've seen in ages. Think they call that move a Crank Shaft!
what kit is this and where from??? cheers
What model and brand is the plane? im looking at buying one. If you could even direct me to the website that would be greatly appreciated
it looks like it can be fixed? did yall fix it or junk in?
Great video... reason why i make my wings complete.. no split section.. sad it came out and crashed :(
That was a fantastic onboard sound. My mother, who was in her early twenties during the BoB told me you could tell if the sound was a German plane because of the off beat throbbing sound the engines made....
Amazing plane.. But sad how finish.. Great work
It looks at slow mo that left eleron stack at end position probably servo freack out...check voltage...
Bummer great plane was it the frame?
That's a beautiful plane even though you crash you can still repair it and it will still look good... ;)
Just finished building the replacement BF-110 and will take it down to the Lydd Club for its maiden flight as soon as the weather clears up a bit....
don't fly it like a fighter jet and it may last..
+EliteGeeks You mean the turns?
Most probably the full throttle dives too.
EliteGeeks It's left wing tip gave way because this R/C model was not meant to to go at such speeds, maybe he needs to get an aluminum airframe.... My R/C BF 109 was amazing
Thanks for posting. Dont blame yourself, you were hosed by KMP/ESM. I have their Stuka and the firewall came loose after a couple of flights despite being a little underpowered. Their planes look good but you have to do a ton of work to fix all the things they should have done right in the factory.
Ouch! No matter how many times I see this happen it never gets any easier. Sorry this happened to ya bro :(
what kit is this?
I hate seeing the demise of an excellent aircraft! I'm sure you'll have her or another, back in the air soon!
"'I'm not going to crash, I'm not going to crash, I'm not going to crash, I'm not going to crash!" (Later I crashed) Weak wing center folded during high G turn on a modified long wing OT Free Flight converted to slope. It was an original prewar kit of a Maxwell Basset Cardinal. A good objective preflight might have caught the structural weakness. Extra layers of coating might have been enough to strength the center of the wing. I rebuilt.
Sorry about that mate, gutted :( really is a beautiful bird tho, I love the weathering and the panel line details, did you ever find what went wrong? It seems that either the wing became detached slightly, or possibly the structural bar fatigued
The R/C Spitfire that wasn't caught on camera peeled off and did a victory roll - guns still smoking. Seriously though - that was a beautiful plane, I always CRINGE when I see awesome warbirds like that crash at my flying club. Happily it doesn't happen too often - but when it does I always remember my dad's saying "Each one of these planes has it's expiration date."
whot kit is it bud ta
What scale is this?
That has to be fixed that's a beautiful plane and I know you put a lot of work into it but you did a nice job especially the video is cool,👨✈️
Самовыпиливающийся мессер - мечта советских лётчиков)))
Got the right fin clipped off by Wonder Woman’s silent invisible jet. Beautiful bird, by the way. That comment, “Somewhere in a field in Kent” was funny and apropos!
where the left airlon?
We were told and assured that there would be no Spitfires in the area, and that the RAF is under equipped. :-) I'm sorry that this happened to you. Greeting from Apache Junction, Arizona.
Great video and aircraft! When viewed and heard from the onboard camera the engines sound like the big ones. Was the aircraft repaired and still flying? Good luck!
Who makes the kit.
Aw man, that sucked. That was a beautiful airframe too.
The replacement BF-110 is nearing completion. Will post the flying video as and when!
Very nice model, highly loaded. The outboard part of the starboard wing folded up during a turn and flapped up and down during the initial stage, when it was inverted for a split second one could see this action. Pity really.
What was salvaged?
It was a lovely model. Hope you fixed it.
Bugger the bloody airframe, who tunes your engines ??? I have NEVER heard a twin gasser in snyc so PERFECTLY. The hum from the onboard video was melodic, and not one splutter from either motor in the flight. VERY nicely tuned.
Pity about the failure, not a major design flaw after all, as thought, but a really simple ASS BITER type one. OBVIOUSLY the single screw mounting isn't enough. Shame it took a nice model to find it out. I concede, it is rather hard to fly a model with 50% of the wing at 90 degrees to the other 50% of the wing.....
things that make you say "Bugger". Very nice looking and flying model.
Video was taken 1940
(COLORIZED)
Sounds like you lost one engine and it did the dreaded VMC roll like what happens to full size twins when you lose an engine, especially in a steep bank and high wing loading.
JIm
wheres the cockpit???
The nose flying past at the end made it all worth it...
So they do exist? Any links for that? Video?
I was just wondering - it hurts to see these fine models being smashed to pieces ;-)
Surely you can just use some thin plastic "sheets", which it should be possible to fold up in a small space and would only weigh very little? I would imagine that 1-2 m^2 would be enough in most cases - a bit more for the very large models of course.
And combine them with some sort of spring system or powder cartridge that can eject them in an instant out of tube.
No cockpit; why?
Lovely plane. Did you get it fixed?
Next time the commander says "Dont fly close to the frontline, they have heavy flak", you dont go
I had the same plane, I think on mine the firewall gave out, the plane turned over onto its back than dived straight into the ground.
was a lovely model,that's sad to see any model crash,that's why i check every things ok,but thing's can break in mid air
The bee on the front of the plane was a real mark and it’s cool to lol
I've never seen them test a camera in that way on the Gadget Show!
Was it built from Brian Taylor plans?
Outstanding model...Looks like half the right wing came off from the footage.
The new kit has arrived and we'll be starting the new incarnation of this truly awesome machine. We're replacing the DLE-20s with new ones and hopefully will have it flying for the summer. Thanks for watching!
