This awe-inspiring RC Wilga is something you don't see often! All hollow-molded composite, it originated from a Frisch mold (now offered by Tomahawk Aviation), this model is a visual delight with its rivets, panel lines, and clean automotive paint finish. Powered by a Moki 250cc 5-cylinder radial engine, turning a 32x16 prop, this 12-ft wingspan giant weighs just under 55lbs and sounds incredible!
Join us as we showcase the beauty and power of this extraordinary Wilga model and crank up the sound, because t's an experience you won't want to miss! :)

Thanks so much for sharing this! I am the pilot and want to share a little more info about this flight, specifically. This was round 2 at the 2023 RC Scale Nationals in Muncie, Indiana at AMA site #4. The goal here is to make it look as real as you can for max points. The wind was a bumpy quartering cross blowing about 15mph, which was evident after takeoff and from some buffering during the flight (I don't used gyros). The flight was decent, but it did get tossed around a bit. And yes, the landing was BAD. I haven't flown the Wilga since 2019 and just got it too slow. You can see as soon as the nose came up with the flaps down and all that weight, it slows down quick in the wind. I throttled up to smooth it out, but with less than stellar results. I actually bent both axles on that landing. New axles installed, we finished the rest of the weekend unscathed, and came home 4th in class! I appreciate all of the kind words and thanks again to The RC Geek for sharing and doing such a great job capturing this machine!

That’s just huge, you got to love that sound, I really hope I get an engine this big one day. 👍🏻

Boy, that thing is heavy, along with the wing loading!

Several times during the flight I had to remind myself this is an rc. Wow, she even passed the landing gear suspension test.

Sick plane.

@f1matt 8 месяцев назад

Sounds better than some full size planes

@robinsareolas 8 месяцев назад

At least the axles and suspension held good enough to save that nice prop. Awesome plane

Really enjoyed this one Chris! I've always been intrigued by the Wilga...form follows function for sure! I appreciate the hard landing demo, but it clearly bent the gear aft of the joint...oh well...
