    Eurofighter Typhoon turbine jet with innovative wing tip smoke

    Yeah....but on the plus side at least the gear went up. Nothing I hate more than a jet with its dangly bits hanging down. I stop filming if I see that.

    Eurofighter Typhoon turbine jet with innovative wing tip smoke

    Probably the best demonstration I have seen of Gunter Zielke's unique and innovative electronic smoke system. This also shows off the G-force initiation of the smoke system as the pilot performs some high speed aerobatics.

    Impressive multi-pilot prop hang ends with spectacular crash

    He did last year...just not this time. I think he was standing too far away to judge it correctly.

    Impressive multi-pilot prop hang ends with spectacular crash

    14 pilots put up their rides for a combined prop hang for a Show record! Even with their prop hanging skills this was no easy feat. Avoiding all the other RC aircraft was challenging and there was at least one near miss. Unfortunately there was one crash at the end. One adventurous pilot tries...

    Eastern Lockheed L-1011 Tristar Airliner with RC Tug\Tractor

    This Lockheed L-1011 Tristar would have been perfect by itself but when his son used the RC tug/tractor to pull it out to the runway...and pull it back to the pits...

    Giant scale twin turbine Lockheed SR-71 Blackbird

    Twin turbine powered Lockheed SR-71 Blackbird scorches down the strip at Airliner Treffen. Flown to perfection by Matthias Blaß with his father Walter, the builder of this jet, assisting on the flight line.

    Jase Dussia: Ignoring the Laws of Physics

    Seriously, this guy has zero respect for the laws of physics! Any other RC pilot understands the basic concepts of gravity and lift and turbulence etc and stays within them...but not Jase. He just ignores those limitations and puts his airframe through unreal torture...all for the appreciation...

    3 Twin Turbine Concorde Airliners in Close Formation

    I travel to a lot of shows in the UK and have NEVER seen a RC commercial airliner fly so that's why I travelled to this show in Germany at great personal expense. The growth and success of my channel is now allowing me to fund these types of trips...so any recommendations on any other overseas...

    3 Twin Turbine Concorde Airliners in Close Formation

    This was something you would very rarely see, if ever ! Three magnificent large scale twin turbine powered Concordes. Built to perfection, featuring smoke and nose droop...and all flown expertly in close formation.

    Rarely modelled Gloster Javelin turbine scale jet

    Great to hear this won't be the only RC Javelin flying then! Good luck with the project.

    SAB Avio KR84 Tortuga - Freaky Fast

    You can probably understand why I was standing back a bit when filming !

    SAB Avio KR84 Tortuga - Freaky Fast

    "IT's TORTUGA TIME !" That's what we heard as our Italian friends from SAB Avio bungee and hand launched their Tortugas into the air to give a hot demonstration of the speed of the new Tortuga from SAB Avio. TORTUGA is a Full sandwich Fiber glass / Airex Fuselage (made under vacuum). - Super...

    SAB Avio Havok and Drake 3D thrust vectored jets

    Very unique and distinctive new RC jet aircraft designs from SAB Avio. You would think the Havok was inspired by Star Trek's Klingon Bird of Prey spaceship. Amazing aerobatic capability in the hands of the right pilots...and these guys were the right pilots. Filmed at Weston Park International...

    Rarely modelled Gloster Javelin turbine scale jet

    I have not seen an RC Gloster Javelin flying before so it was fantastic to see Joe's new turbine powered version of this jet at the North London Model Flying Club Scale Day event. You can see the effects of the wind turbulence on this jet through its low fast passes and on final approach. Joe is...

    Tony Nijhuis 4x50mm EDF Concorde (retracts and nose droop)

    Stunning EDF concorde from Tony Nijhuis Designs. Features 4x50mm EDFs running on a 4S5000 pack, retractable landing gear and nose droop. I suspect kits will be available here in the not too distant future... https://bit.ly/2EyERIq ...but he did share that these are the fan/motors he is...

    Giant P-51 Mustang destroyed on take off

    A very expensive electric conversion destroyed within seconds of take off. Even the most experienced pilots make small mistakes which can have disastrous consequences.

    Rocket assisted C-130 take-off

    Yup. Despite our local flying field being that bumpy we have a lot of fun. Cheers ;)

    Rocket assisted C-130 take-off

    We've been wanting to try this for a while...

    Most expensive RC jet I have ever filmed

    Amazing model especially because of its size, the detail and scheme. All up cost of this creation was £25K ($35K).
