This is my Balsa Wood RC plane I took it out to fly with too much wind and had a bad Crash. It may be rebuildable but will take a lot of time and work. I should not have taken it out to fly with that much wind. Here is the parts I used to build it and a few more links to some of my videos.

I love seeing you out flying these planes, if I did a build like this I would be too afraid to fly it!

@DIGITALRC 4 года назад

oh no :( the plane was looking so nice.. keep it up!

@jorgenelsonfelix52 4 года назад

I look forward to seeing the repair process and the new revival. A very big greeting for everyone from Buenos Aires Argentina. 👍😎

@unity20000 3 года назад

Yeah. In many ways repair process is more interesting than the actual flights.

If you take off with too much up elevator, you are only just above the stall. You can do a short take off like that but cannot touch the ailerons, until comfortably above the stall point. Otherwise it means that as soon as you add aileron you completely stall the wing which you were trying to lift. That happens because the wing angle of attach was at the stall, so when you put the aileron down it increases the angle of attack beyond the stall and the wing drops.

@aghauler1964 4 года назад

Beautiful build, Just as an armchair engineer, i noticed you added some tail weight to try and counter moving the engine nacel forward to allow room for the retracts, On prototypes Bassier adds 5 feet of fuselage ahead of the wing to counter the CG. Still a stunning build and gorgeous finish.

@scotabot7826 4 года назад

Yea, you can't horse a airplane off the ground like that with no flying speed. That would have happened if it was dead calm.

@richardmessenger9474 4 года назад

Typical DC3 knife edge of death...my Top Flight with 2x 52 FS engines did exactly the same as has many others before me....the cause looked like insufficient ground speed before takeoff...need to hold it on the ground longer before lifting off ...great clip of the re build....am sure you will soon have it repaired...nice to see proper building skills as opposed to chucking it in the bin and buying an ARTF or a foamy...👍👍👍

@josephfreeman5289 4 года назад

It happened so fast. Thank you for posting so we can all Learn. Looks like cross wind launch got under wing.

@gillesbkf4315 4 года назад

also full up on elevator ..

Now this is an air crash investigation channel and this video sir is key evidence in our investigation of the DC3 flight 123

@jorgenelsonfelix52 4 года назад

Luckily it didn't suffer much damage it can still be repaired but don't put much command in depth. And try not to get it from the wind, always very attentive to farts the movements of the model. 👍😎

@iansummers6945 4 года назад

Dude, I have no idea what you are trying to say here??

@jwoltremari 4 года назад

You should go to the edge of the woods, get your flaps down, wheels down on approach, speed down when at the edge of the field - give your self room. Look at the wings to the horizon.

@thercchannel7301 3 года назад

6:43 oh no that poor fly! 🤣

@braddixon3338 3 года назад

I'd be crying right about then if that were me. Your rebuild video shows your skill and patience though.

@TroyMcMillan 3 года назад

Ya that was a hard day for sure. But I had to rebuild it after I remembered how awesome this plane was to fly.

@citicolina 4 года назад

Don’t feel bad for the crash, even Draco crashed the same way. I hope you can get her up in the air again, she looks beautiful.

@richardbriscoe8563 4 года назад

Jorge González Except Draco is maybe a million dollar plus aircraft with a human on board.

@citicolina 4 года назад

Richard Briscoe Yes! and yet if either one underestimates the magnitude of a crosswind they can both end up with a damaged plane on the side of the runway. It’s like the laws of physics don’t care how much money or people did you put on each plane, they’ll treat both specimens with the same kindness.

I just watched you repair this damage. You should change title of this video, as this is not the last flight of this plane. Fantastic job on the rebuild by the way.

@mikew3232 4 года назад

Very nice model. Sorry it was damaged, hope you repair it soon. What was the chrome film covering you used, looks great.

@andrewnielsen3178 4 года назад

That's sad but totally fixable. Might I suggest about 30 to 40% expo on the elevator and aileron controls when she gets flying again. That little model needs to be smooth in the air to look real.

@archiecoolsdown5854 3 года назад

@andypc14 5 месяцев назад

Great looking model - really great to see it fly so well (my dad flew these full size…I’m only a year into the re hobby but a pretty decent builder so hope to put one together in his memory). Are they tricky to fly?

Great build man, the plane seems not to be to damaged, rebuilding is worth it. also in ur past flights did u dial any expos, if not that might help you a-lot on the next flight. hope you get the bird back up again

@angelreading5098 4 года назад

Tricky beasts to fly DC-3's with those pointy wings,always incorporate wingtip washout in designs like this so the root stalls before the wingtip,also reduce up elevator throw reduces the temptation to haul back and stall ,was this the first take off crash incorporated into this video ? a pity because the old DC-3 was flying so well after the nose and nacelle repairs.

@supergee1070 Год назад

Always take of and land into the wind.

@jamesberna6099 4 года назад

Either line up into the wind for take-off, or be ready with left aileron when you leave the ground.

@gogogeedus 4 года назад

he was very quick on the left ailerons but that was the cause of the crash, because that action stalled the right wing which flipped the plane onto its side, the wind may have had some effect but the lack of rudder input in this situation is going to determine the outcome. top rudder would have saved his plane and no ailerons.

@jean-marcoberle5621 3 года назад

Too bad for this nice delivery. Probably not enough speed before takeoff, as for the 1st flight by the way ...

@TroyMcMillan 3 года назад

Not enough speed and too much wind. I rebuilt the plane and have videos up on my channel.

@byahenilloydie9359 4 года назад

you put too much elevator, even before the tail lift off, a big no for tail dragger. gain some speed most tail dragger don't even need elevator for take off they will leave the ground and it will face the wind eventually
