If I won the lottery, I wouldn’t tell anyone. However, buying one of these would definitely be a sign.

My old neighbor and mentor, Commander Joe Zahalka USN Ret., RIO, F-14, VF-2, VF-213 would have loved this!! He motivated me to a flying career of 47 years and 25,380 hours of flight. The Tomcat is my favorite fighter. Excellent flying. As good as any of the real demo pilots 20 years ago. ANYTIME BABY! Go NAVY.

This is the longest I’ve seen anyone fly a tomcat swept. Well done, great flight and the maneuver precision was on point.

It just shows how comfortable he is becoming with the flight characteristics of this magnificent scale model.

@nickg5240 3 ай бұрын

Yes! Longest I’ve seen in swept wing config also. And he actually put it through its paces in that config. Best F14 flight I’ve seen…

It's amazing how slow you can fly the XXL jets these jets are light an very large . There moving, but not as fast as you thinking because they are light they're light enough that you can see the little wind shifting them with and this wind isn't really heavy out there at the moment .

@DesertFoxProductions 3 ай бұрын

The dry weight of the Skymaster XXL F-14 is 38kg (83.7756596 lbs.). I don't know the wing loading, but I wouldn't call it light. M2C cheers!

@thomassullivan3703 3 ай бұрын

Man this is like really improving to moving around in the air like it's floaty, and you're right the wingload must play a Significant roll in it alongside the lifting body maybe a very close match to this particular jet an it's setup. I know it's large an covers alot of space in the matter of split seconds . Lol it just gets from one area to the other as if it just floated there so calming 😂 this one can have the top gun music an the elevator music at the Jewelry shop 😂 , this jet is Sneakier than stealth man 😂 , I've watched this video at least 6 times. It moves perfectly smooth in whatever Position it's in , it will probably take a knife Edge and that's not even on the scale flying Roster 😂

Yes, brakes are a requirement on turbine powered model aircraft in the U.S.A. www.modelaircraft.org/system/files/documents/510-A.pdf

Hello wayneschenk5512, I looked around and found this F-14XXL with K235 power. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/jKhiktF307-oopc.htmlsi=gCLNN1Yl4TKsQf1Z, kzfaq.info/get/bejne/n650nMV1yJmsiJs.htmlsi=uOvESt_iT9v6OV7D

Beautiful flight not to be disrespectful but you should add a servo slow to the canopy mechanism to make it look realistic when opening and closing

@DesertFoxProductions 3 ай бұрын

Videographer here, the original system is air actuated. Chetan is aware of the non-realistic aspect of the opening and closing of the canopy. I am sure he will address the system after evaluating his options.

@ebelguldukat9515 3 ай бұрын

The stock system is air. The alternative electric option required a lot of mods and the actuator was not instock....it will be changed soon ...
