I've been in love with the SR-71 since I was a little girl. My dad took me to see one fly one time back in the 90's. I even got to touch it. It is one of my most cherished memories that I hope I never forget. I made my dad one out of wood in third grade. My husband got me a model one that is currently sitting on top of my computer. It's the most beautiful plane ever. This video made me smile the whole time. I'm glad I found it.
This is one of the most amazing RC's I have ever seen. The LED afterburner effect is amazing. The people that build and fly these complex jet RC's are amazing...Creative, talented and skilled... both artist and technical.
why rock n' roll....? why any music.??. Why do all youtubers think I want to hear THEIR idea of good music?? So sick of every other video trying to be something it's not. This isn't a fucking Red Bull video. Just show us the god damn RC plane.
***** My apologies since it was out of your control. Hopefully others read your reply and understand you didn't add the music. All in all....great video! I never knew RC planes were this sophisticated.
The Music at the beginning is my Work, hope it is not this song...Background music after start and in flight is out of a Box or 6 Box around the flying field there on this R/C Show... No Sorry i like it too, to hear the sound of the Jet Helicopter or Airplane so smoke under water is not from me :) wish a good start in the New Week from Switzerland greetings
Great video Thanks for sharing. But next time would you consider deleteing the music. It adds nothing to the video, in my opinion. Just like hot roders/racers in the USA say; GO BIG OR GO HOME ! Cheers.
I remember reading about the YF-12A during its development and before it became the SR-71 Blackbird. I also saw it fly when I was landing in Okinawa on my way out of Viet Nam in 1968 and then take off from there. It was in a read hanger at the end of the runway, the first thing I remember was the B O O M as it fired up, the doors opened and that thing came down the runway like a scalded cat on steroids. about half way down it rotated and it was up and away like a rocket. I have never forgotten that sight nor sound. It was Beautiful!
How does the pilot track the pitch, roll and yaw from so far away at such high speeds? Does he just know the plane and controls so well that he can picture it in his mind? It seems he could easily roll it too far and end up losing it with just a small mistake. Impressive.
SR-71 is been my favorite airplane in the whole wide world I don't care if there's a faster one this one just looks the neatest out of all of them something that's actually aerodynamic you did a great job
Wow that's fucking insane!!! Granted I had no idea people flew RC miniatures powered by jet engines until I saw this but I am, as an engineer, extremely impressed! The Blackbird has been my favorite aircraft since I was 8yo so I am very jealous right now! Many props to you sir!
Yea that is a hell of an expensive hobby to be in to. if you plan to look at price of some of those, you better be sitting down and not have a heart condition cause it will give you a heart attack.
I'm on the same boat... I was looking at drones... And made my way in a crazy RC world I never knew existed. I'd love to build one. But I'm sure my girl would dump me lol.
RCHeliJet... So what's the actual propulsion system here? I don't recall the SR-71 having a center fuselage engine... What's in the tubes on the wings? The LED lights in the back are a real cute afterburner affect...:-/
The music is what people are whining about?....That's the coolest RC plane....ever! Of course I'm a huge SR71 fan so that helps....fantastic piloting for sure...Thanks for this vid!
OK......I'm totally a spectator and had no idea they could make little mini rocket engines or planes like this. WICKED COOL THAT IS AAAAWWWWESSOMME!!! if its built with the same specs I'm assuming that thing probably can woop on all other rc jets?
Love the Blackbird. One of my favorite planes. It was retired way to soon . And this one is even has NASA markings, the last agency to fly it. Very nice job and nice video work. Thanks for posting and God Bless
The SR-71 is the baddest, sexiest, fastest looking, fastest flying aircraft in the entire world. The thing looks like it's doing a million miles an hour, just sitting still. The world will never see an airplane quite this sexy and amazing in my lifetime. Too bad it's retired. The plane few so fast, the entire aircraft would stretch a few inches just from the friction and drag of the air on it's surfaces. The plane would physically get hot. That's how you know when you're flying fast! Glad someone made a classy amazing RC model of this. Amazing video. Don't think I'm quite into the AC/DC remix of Thunderstruck.. but hey, can't have perfection in every video.
Also, the maximum speed wasn't limited by engines (The P&W J-58 engines were the real heart/secret of the blackbird). As long as the air entering the intakes was below a certain temperature (800F 420C), you could push the engine more and accelerate. One pilot took her to Mach 3.5 when he was defending missiles over Libya, and said there was still plenty of throttle left... Truly one special bird that we as humans should all be proud of!
Now this would be a great and safe air show to attend. Nothing against the real air shows but sometimes things happen and good pilots and people meet unfortunate circumstances. This seems to be just as enjoyable maybe even more...
+irfan ardiatama too mutch :) LoL it hink 50'000$ not enough. it is a special RC Jet made with CAD and some mold to pour the Fuselage, that made Roger.K all self LoL. thats all what i know and think enjoy the Videos.!!!
Jason Hitchcock good that you know what Roger.K need to build this Blackbird SR-71 :) better we dont talk about money.. enjoy the Videos and have Fun.!!!
+Tom Emerson you can technically 3D print the engine, though the equipment needed for that you could easily buy a whole arsenal of RC jets or probably a small jet plane.
Ζήσης Δούκας I imagine it'd be difficult, but that thing is so decked out I wouldn't be surprised if it had a centered camera for landing. If not, I guess it'd just be like doing anything else, just takes practice.
+Matt Jones NASA still has one in service and basically sub-contracts it out to companies that need high speed/ high altitude testing. Kinda cool to know "If" you had enough money you could rent the fastest manned aircraft in history!
+jimy walker hhhhh, call Elon Musk & tell him we can help with some testing, and of course, to please give me a ride on the "rented" flight of that last SR-71 eh?! ^_^
That is absolutely amazing. I am completely dumbfounded ,between the speed and size of this hobby grade jet to the electronics down to the propulsion system. Simply unbelievable!!!!!! I wonder how much a setup Like this goes for in terms of financing,money? You know the personFlying this has alot of experience as well. This individual aint no stranger to flying either he probably owns or rents actual planes because even though these are smaller scaled down versions of real jets you need to have alot of knowledge of the physics involved such as lift, drag,Yaw etc. Overall this is an expensive hobby to take up. I myself have and always had a passion for flying but unfortunately coming up with that kind of money kept me grounded. (Sorry people no pun intended ) Even cheaper versions of flying planes mostly made in China are a little on the pricey side. An example the 2.4 gigahertz cheaply made radio system servos a brushless motor setup. Most of these planes are made from styrofoam can run you upwards of three to four hundred dollars, now can you imagine the price of these expensive jet-powered planes that are not made from styrofoam but probably made from some expensive carbonfiber or lightweight alloy.Lets not even get into the actual jets they incorperate into their Frames its scary. You need to have alot of money ,burning desire and aPassion for flying. I hope one day they mass produce these so it becomes cheaper or even affordable so I can finally get into this hobby. I want a basic setup again made from cheap materials brushless motor and a 11.1v li-po battery and its costing me almost 300 dollars. Lame!!? just stupid eh. All it is, is a piece of styrofoam a motor ,battery receiver 3 tiny servos a gyro for steady flying. These parts are relatively cheap and inexpensive but its hard to purchase them alone because lets face it my setup would be probably under 50 dollars but nope i have to go to a hobby site where they rip you off. Bummer Does anyone know a place where i can buy a cheap plane setup. Any infoWould be greatly appreciated. Thank you people,Paul S.
+Paul Santora build your own rc planes you don't need the extreme jet engines to have fun at all, EDF function almost the same without the hassle in dealing with jet fuel and all the other moving parts that comes with it i rather build my own plane then buy some kit ART. RTF trash
+Paul Santora I agree,,,,, these guys are amazing ! U dudes really impress me, how can u fly something so small with the quality of smooth flight & yet high speed for it's size?! U kick ass. I am an old fan of the SR-71 the best plane we have ever built perhaps. Lockheed Martin keeps saying they will build the SR-72 but i very much doubt we can afford to do it, 21st century requires that money in aerospace needs to be spent on reaching an economy in space flight such as Elon Musk & his dudes at SpaceX. But i gotta tell ya, this level of craftsmanship & piloting seen here in this demonstration is an artform, congratulations on building & flying that beauty of a ship.
Absolutely amazing work on the SR-71 black brid MODEL . FLY's great and fast like the real one . seems to handle well in the air . Good workmen ship building it as well. impressive ... . The US military should have kept using and building those SR-71... i still say its the fastest and best maneuvering plane we in the US ever built BASED ON A DESIGNE from a movie called FIRE FOX . WITH CLINT EASTWOOD.. SHORTLY AFTER the SR-71 BLACK.BRID I THINK SHE CAME TO LIFE . . ANYWAY .!!!! GOOD JOB GUYS GOOD VIDEO .
I always wanted one of these. I love it, my favourite 💕

Im about the same age as these guys. Is that the kind of music they listen to at home. Next time put some old Rock and Roll on.
+El Diablo Hi Yes, thats Background Music from the Show :/
no. this is the music they think the kids are listening to :)

its really looking original
Remove the crappy music and you got yourself a killer video! Was the music playing at the event? The RC SR-71 was fantastic!

I remember reading about the YF-12A during its development and before it became the SR-71 Blackbird. I also saw it
fly when I was landing in Okinawa on my way out of Viet Nam in 1968 and then take off from there. It was in a
read hanger at the end of the runway, the first thing I remember was the B O O M as it fired up, the doors opened and
that thing came down the runway like a scalded cat on steroids. about half way down it rotated and it was up and
away like a rocket. I have never forgotten that sight nor sound. It was Beautiful!
Great story. Thanks for sharing. Best wishes to you.
Imagine FPV on this plane
Thanks for Visite my Channel. Like your Channel about time travel from Switzerland all the best for 2018 greetings RCHELIJET
That is as good as R.C modelling gets. It's perfection personified and I bet there's a lot of money been spent on it.
Awesome plane and video with the exception of the music. It sounded like there was a gay pride rally next door or something.

"It's Raining Men" for 24 hrs straight! (Sorry, didn't mean straight, don't want to trigger anyone!! LMAO!
That thing is fast. It sounds real too
You can by a little gas turbine jet engine for cheap
The SR-71 is without a doubt one of my fav jets ever. Really awesome to see someone made a model like this.
My favorite plane goes 248mph , has LED lights and looks sexy still in RC form
Truly impressive!!!
Techno remix of ACDC Thunder Struck, wow , what a shame. What's next, a rap version of a Sinatra song?
The worst is the 100% compression with the beat as the trigger.
+Slava Sosnov Indeed, who ever genius came up with that idea?
+Slava Sosnov probably normalized the mp3 when he encoded. ugh
I did it my way nigga

Hi around 248mph :) greetings from Switzerland/Zurich
It seems to me that the same aircraft I see here (not even Britney can not see)
Don't know why we stopped using the 71. One of the best aircrafts we ever built. Excellent video. I wish I had the money to get into rc's.
How does the pilot track the pitch, roll and yaw from so far away at such high speeds? Does he just know the plane and controls so well that he can picture it in his mind? It seems he could easily roll it too far and end up losing it with just a small mistake. Impressive.
yeah, thats alwasy been the hardest part of rc flying for me. if i got one with a good camera setup id be doing great.

Moves at nearly a scaled down speed to its original. No sound barrier but it just reflects the real deal
And they landed it, wow just wow
must be nerve wrecking everytime landing that magnificent piece of work

One of aviation's most remarkable planes ever. Quite beautiful - fast too! :).
Legendary!!
Kelly Johnson built it 1960's
Blackbird and Concorde sexiest most beautiful planes ever built. Honorable mention to XB-70
It is impressive, and very,very cool! Amazing flying skills too!
I love the little afterburner lights,on its passes ,just awesome.Thanks for sharing this video.
I want one. But please, who's idea was it to violently butcher those classic rock tracks?!
mrpositronia 😂😂😂😂
mrpositronia Gay Pride Event happened right next door to this
The sound at the beginning sounds so real i looked out the window to see if real fighter jets were doing a low fly-by.
So do they make it from scratch or buy parts from different places and assemble into one air plane?
That's an awesome AC/DC dance remix! Said no one ever. On the flip side...this RC SR71 is amazing
How fast is it?
same thing on my mind
Vitality Massage Mach 3.5 XD
Vitality Massage top secret, can't tell you sorry. If I do I'll get a visit from the men in black 😬
Possible Mach 3, 1km/s, or 3600km/h
Chizzzt idiot no
Wow the range of that control is amazing
Very cool RC model of the best plane ever built.
Thank You and from Switzerland merry Christmas.
I used to watch the bu take off in Okinawa...very realistic flight profile on the rc model. Well done!
Man, that guy can fly it super! how did he know where it was when it went all the way up? Great !!
Probably has a camera on it did you see the size of the controller
he had a camera on it
Love the Blackbird. One of my favorite planes. It was retired way to soon . And this one is even has NASA markings, the last agency to fly it. Very nice job and nice video work. Thanks for posting and God Bless
that thing goes 111 meters per second at full speed :D
sound barrier is 342 mps
About 400 km/h... that's not bad for an rc plane!
Martin Sletten basically I'll simplify this bs. For us COMMON folk that's 248 mph. Who the HELL talks about meters per second??
Are you one of those people that thinks the imperial system is flawless?
imgur.com/a/HugZP
I bet it's real as the big one
Really spectacular. Have you guys mounted an FPV system on it?
The SR-71 is the baddest, sexiest, fastest looking, fastest flying aircraft in the entire world. The thing looks like it's doing a million miles an hour, just sitting still.
The world will never see an airplane quite this sexy and amazing in my lifetime. Too bad it's retired. The plane few so fast, the entire aircraft would stretch a few inches just from the friction and drag of the air on it's surfaces. The plane would physically get hot. That's how you know when you're flying fast! Glad someone made a classy amazing RC model of this. Amazing video.

With a control box
The song choice for this video was bad enough, but the fact that it was actually playing at the live event BLOWS MY MIND
how much can this baby actually cost?
+irfan ardiatama too mutch :) LoL it hink 50'000$ not enough. it is a special RC Jet made with CAD and some mold to pour the Fuselage, that made Roger.K all self LoL. thats all what i know and think enjoy the Videos.!!!

These European rc shows are mind benders . Really cool stuff !
Thank You, from Switzerland greetings Tom
Side note...... don't make shitty dance versions of AC/DC songs.
Mike Patton I almost stopped watching... glad I didn't because it stopped, but ACDC is probably the last band that should be remixed.
Jastroyer manswer
Ditto.....
Mike Patton
... and of Deep Purlpe-Songs... ;-)
renewblah I do believe the SOTW remix is based on the Carlos Santana & Jacoby Shaddix tribute on Re-Machined. Unremixed, it's worth a listen.

That's some nice flying......................................and the engine noise is outrageous.....................!
Amazing model and excellent flying!

That's magnificent. It's even fast as a model. Wow.
how the hell do they fly those things?i mean,do they have some kind of first person monitoring system?The landing part?
Ζήσης Δούκας I imagine it'd be difficult, but that thing is so decked out I wouldn't be surprised if it had a centered camera for landing. If not, I guess it'd just be like doing anything else, just takes practice.
remarkable "toys"
Ζήσης Δούκας some do some dont. Its harder to fly a RC than to fly in the real deal. But great landing by the pilot.
Harder than real flying?Dude.....Get yourself together.If any pilot watches this,he'll be laughing his ass off !
Ζήσης Δούκας harder for the fact youre not in it, weight & a few other factors. You a pilot or what?
Thanks guys!! You did a beautiful job on the best jet in the world!!
the music doesnt fit the video .... :/
now this Is one beautiful machine really looks out of this world still the best looking of ALL planes produced
wow ! i love the blackbird tom, great vid m8 - pete,
tbobborap1 Many Thanks Pete ;)
Probably one of the few model RC aircraft that fly at a "scale" speed!

Thanks for ruining Thunder Struck for me
Outstanding aircraft a credit to the builder 👍❤️
Thank you, i will tell it Roger Knobel next time :) from Switzerland greetings Tom.
cool man really cool
This aircraft is an amazing piece of engineering. There’s a film that’s partly about it.
dear santa
SAMEEEEEEE
Santa is not a dear he rides dears but he ain't one
This was the best rc plane I saw so far
I thought the music was not bad..
Incredible model. Saw a real one in McMinnville Oregon. Great flying.
It would be a better video without the music imo.
The Music come from the speaker of the Show (DJ) :)
***** Realy .....why is The music and the cut same ??
simply amazing... i nevet knew anything like this existed
Its too bad they decommissioned sr71s
NASA still uses these babies!!! better believe that!
NASA Decommissioned both its aircraft in 98 and 99
+Matt Jones NASA still has one in service and basically sub-contracts it out to companies that need high speed/ high altitude testing. Kinda cool to know "If" you had enough money you could rent the fastest manned aircraft in history!

wow
That DJ is not only bad, but also it must have been really loud because the mic is saturating!
Master piece here and incredible flight!
Glorious model but please censor the music - the stuff at the beginning is worse than the show soundtrack!
Who chooses this stuff?
The afterburner lights are a nice touch
Meh, I was hoping for some actual afterburners that they had engineered. Now that would have been cool, not some effects
That’s unbelievable 🔥😳SR-71
What, no sonic boom, no parachute to stop.... pffffff :)
All I can say is WOW!!!! Totally Remarkable.
"Mum , I'm just going down the playing field to fly my jet"
Absolutely amazing work on the SR-71 black brid MODEL . FLY's great and fast like the real one . seems to handle well in the air . Good workmen ship building it as well. impressive ... . The US military should have kept using and building those SR-71... i still say its the fastest and best maneuvering plane we in the US ever built BASED ON A DESIGNE from a movie called FIRE FOX .
