That wind was already a nope for me.

That wind. Nope, not me, not gonna take her up. Fixable-thank god. Love that early NASA chase scheme!

I know it was windy, but that thing looks like it just fell apart like it wasn't built great

Amazing weakness

To be fair most 1/4 scale rc airplanes will rip apart if you dig the wingtip in the ground. They are pretty damn big. Unless you have some crazy solid carbon fiber build they don't really stand a chance in any sort of crash. But honestly most of the expensive electronics and motor and all that are probably fine.

It had a pretty strong tail section though. And that happened with the full scale aircraft too. No surpris when you fly in wind too strong for safe flight.

Sorry for that. Besides, the paint scheme of Walkers Jet, collidided with the huge XB 70 Mach 3 Experimental.

Really sorry to see, seems cross wind from behind?

@user-sf3lo5pv1p Ай бұрын

The real cause of such roll-overs is the fixed front wheel. For the long wheelbase it is necessary to install springs between fronf wheel and iactuator or use differential main wheel braking for directional control with self-orienting front wheel.

That one won't rub out.

Now that's wind. 😮😮😮

I read starfighter, I automatically thought X wing fighter from Star wars

@OM-ike Ай бұрын

Did he kick right rudder just before landing? 🧐🤔

@airmanbybee Ай бұрын

Left rudder

This is one of those crashes that really suck. Pilot got it down, and it broke apart in way too many pieces for what it was. You are lucky that it's a floater because that approach was way too slow

Landed with a side load.

@tstahler5420 Ай бұрын

Being an F-104 it was 50/50 at best. 😂

This is a "breakaway" airplane? Good idea.

That's too bad

All that space and you still chose to land crosswind??? Looked like anyway

@johnshoosmith Ай бұрын

Too windy dude!

Hope the pilot is o.k.

@RCnerd74 Ай бұрын

Why do you risk such a plane at these crazy wind conditions? Sad to see it crash...

@airmanbybee Ай бұрын

Owner brought it from colorado we waited the winds out and looking at the radar it looked like we had a window the wind died down about 4 mins into the flight it went to this crazy wind that was rotating. Unfortunately mother nature won. Although it was a clean break and will fix quickly and look amazing again

Sorry the 104 was unstable at low speed at best feel bad ya crashed it but it was a given design + strong wind poof 😮 not the jet for them conditions but it looked great for a second or two

@saibaoseutamanho Ай бұрын

There’s no fixed runway there, and this super pilot should have landed against the wind and not at 90 degrees….. You can see the leaves being blown after the crash…….

@airmanbybee Ай бұрын

Yep the wind changed direction about 6 times as I set up and went from nose to side in the lenth of the video hard to tell from the couch at home.

Leaves? Thats trash.
