- 200 MPH+ control line ORANGE MONSTER HIGH SPEED PULSE JET
Once a year I film control line pulse jets at the BMFA Power Nationals. I'm glad it is only once per year because it is terrifying to stand this close to a projectile doing 204 MPH! That being said it is 100% safe as the control line is regularly measured and stress tested so there is zero possibility of it breaking. You will notice that there is fencing around flight area to prevent the trolley or aircraft leaving should the worst happen...and also to prevent any members of the public accidentally straying into the area.

You know what would be fun?
A game of jump rope: Life or Death edition.
COMMENT OF THE DAY. Hilarious. Have a good weekend David. Cheers Dom (Essential RC)
I'm in!
Yeah also with a metal braided rope do it will slice your feet off 😂
Musical buzzbomb. People sitting in chairs in a circle with buzzbomb flying just overhead. When the music stops, buzzbomb dives. Last person conscious gets to fly 2nd round.
But my favorite is called the "Clothes Dryer". A 100 ft. tall ferris wheel with no seatbelts and no pivoting seats. I know, I know. You're probably thinking, "Who would wanna ride that?" And I say Everyone!! Because if you land in a seat, your second ride is FREE!!!

No no no. I had the art of fusing stupidity with physical injury down pat.
I had an SL70 once. For some idiotic reason, I decided i was going to make a jump out of an aluminum portable picnic table. I remember about 50 ft before the jump and waking up with some old guy staring at me and dust floating all arond. Some pebbles implanted in my chin.
Only difference between boys and men is the price of their toys.
True 🤣
You almost got it there.
And we like that difference
And the time it takes to recover from injury
Bet that guy couldnt walk in a straight line after all that spinning.
Yea , I think so
I used to fly those jets. It's not so bad, really.
XD XD
@@morterforker69 yep, same. You're focused on the model it doesn't make you so dizzy
@@FaTeDev_com What kind of fuel did you use? We used a 50/50 mixture of nitromethane and propylene oxide. Sometimes threw a little benzene in there too. We consistently got over 200MPH, often hitting around 210.
Control-line seems a slowly dying art and such a special side of aeromodeling. This is awesome to see. And a pulse jet is definitely an added treat!
I did control line flying back in the 80's and what you said was being said then. Yet I see many people still fly control line
@@leokimvideoI agree I’ve heard it as well. If you look at most mainstream rc magazines, ads, hobby shops, etc, very rarely is control line highlighted. I’m aware that people still do it, I’ve seen it at fly-ins and once in a blue moon at the field, but it is rare and I do feel it’s dying down as most young people head towards rc and rtf models.
@@Fantastiko13 With all the rules on RC now, I think it will make a big come back. I think RC has been shot in the foot.
This is a very special kind of madness!
4:27 Starting up
MVP
I remember building these back in the late 60’s to early 70’s. These things where so super fast and hard to handle. It almost pull my shoulder out of the socket. I had made a special fiberglass wrist forearm brace just to be able to hold on. When I first got into them my father knew people still in the navy who came up with some small jet engines to mess with. I took a old bathtub 1920’s and kustom made a frame suspension designed along the lines of a Jaguar car. I ended up getting arrested for speeding down our street doing 167 mph. The noise that my jet engine put out was unreal. I was really into engineering had 5 degrees. If I wasn’t old and broken down these days. I would still be creating off the wall stuff.
Lester Miller wish you had some pictures!
Keep doing it! What better things have ya got to do? I'm disabled but I still tinker. ;) it's how I stay sane without work.
You did 167mph down a street in a bath tub? God there's some gullible people on here 🤣
I had 10 degrees and did 200mph down my street in a sink , it was powered by a homemade nuclear reactor.
@@douggreen9433 That's nothing...I had a cardboard box with an SRB off the space shuttle running cooking oil from my local chippy. I was clocked at 13000mph leaving my drive and went into orbit by the end of the road. 😉
"Phew!" "I'm dizzy just watching that craft going 204.4 m.p.h.!" "That was intense!"
Best fuel to noise ratio in the whole modeling business!
Finally! A pulse jet that’s not just bolted down to a workbench
Loved watching the two old geezers try to run when they got it started!
To be fair they were both hunched over trying to start it for a while, I’m only 30 and I know I would struggle to run properly like that
How high were the people who invented this? I had a control line P51 mustang when I was like 8 years old. If the prop didn’t cut ur finger off when trying to start it, the spinning in circles would make you puke. Great times Dad, great times.
Run them non stop until motor melted plastic housing and the rubber bands, and the motor would fly out the front of plane.
Cox?
Tom da Silva
Oh yes. 0 to 8 zillion rpms in a split second. Lol
@@MrCarnutbill67 , Ha... I think, to have had the same Mustang, around 1966... I think those motors were called "Baby Bees"... I had another motor, separately, a "Golden Bee", that could support inverted flight... If my memory does not betray me... Cheers, man!
Those were the days..
It's so expressive beyond words to watch this man spin around at such an expressive speed yet have such masterful control of the Aircraft.
AC Cobra in the background @ 3:33 Might be a kit. Still cool.
Great 1960s memory at Sepulveda Basin: some badass DynaJet dude with this tattoo on his person: THOU SHALT DRAG 😎😸
Slowed down footage was good, sounded more like the V1 flying bomb!
Same basic jet technology so no surprise. Just awesome watching this thing in action and actually quite terrifying but these guys obviously knew what they were doing and are very safety conscious. Cheers Dom (Essential RC)
Man I wish I had all the time I spent trying to fly one of these back!!
You did a great job!
People don’t realize how hard these are to fly especially on along wire like yours!!!
Great job!!!!
Yeah, Monoline is hard to control!
Thanks for your great videos. Good to see the pulse jet speed models close up.
Undeniably impressive but deadly. Thanks for the surprise again.
Lol, the things men do for fun...
Yep.....hi!!
...in the absence of regular sex.

And we are proud of it😂😄
Pulse jets are the muskets of the thrust world. Effective but takes a minute to get em going. Imagine hearing the call “scramble the pulse jets”!
Great video. Pulse Jets are awesome! First time I saw one in the late 70’s no fence. Nuts. After that they always put one up. Not sure it would stop a 200mph run off….. but at least it made you feel better watching
Holly crap! That was climactic,
0 to 200 in .5 sec, awesome
Fark! From not starting to 204mph in 0.001s!!!! Love it!
3:35 nice cobra!
have you seen that prius behind it? Nice prius dude!!
What Da !! that was insane !! you could hardly see it man that was quick Amazing flight there and great spectacle
you got me going in circles around and around we go.
I could tell that thing was going to be a rocket! Good show.
I had one when I was about 7yrs old it had a 15 ft cord and it was 100% powerd by me after about a minute of spinning around in circles the entire world just kept on spinning it was fun !
I had one of those too. Great memories
That was awesome, great video! I like the sound that came with your slow-motion segment....the engine sounded something like a Gary Newman song!! Thanks for posting.
CHEESE AND RICE!!!
That is, LITERALLY, a speeding bullet at 204 plus mph.
I flew control line models as a kid but NOTHING with that kind of velocity! I fear I'd be puking going around in circles at that velocity!!
Good Job, Sir!!
Holy crap that's fast, that was the funniest thing I have seen for a while. I got dizzy sick when I flew my son's Cox P51 plastic Mustang after I bought him that one Christmas, and I was nowhere near spinning that fast.
4:34 look what the guy does in the car goes perfect in that moment with the jet sound 😂😂😂
Wow. I feel like the slowed audio around 7:30 could be a trigger for PTSD.
That was crazy!
Thank you
For those unaware..... those pulse jets are real ear busters and this video does not begin to reveal how very loud they are.
Notice that ear protection is wisely being used .
this is reasonably insane
Crazy stuff, would make me dizzy holding on to that.
An RC plane on a string and you run round after it woo crazy nearly as crazy as those golf people that hit balls and go looking for them instead of keeping them when they had them crazy mind boggling stuff innit
I watched a u-control pulse jet about 40 years ago and was amazed at the noise, let alone the speed. I think the younger generation will not follow in the footsteps of these gentleman and the sport will disappear.
I’m 41 still I think control line is stupid
As the eletric planes are growing up and these low costs when compared to combustion engine model planes, combined with noise restriction laws in many countries, possibly this finest hobby is nearly to disappear in a couple of years...
@@EZ4U2Say11 That is a constructive comment. Thanks for informing us.
I have one that was made in Germany that has a carb on it about 13 inch long haven't tried to start it yet was a gift from a friend I'm only 46
@@Dbassman999 wow and it only took you 4 years to troll the comments section
I had always assumed the BMFA would be all about radio control. I barely saw any at the NATs, it was all control line and free flight. What a bunch of crazy old nutters who aren't happy unless there is a significant element of danger, my kind of people.
There was LOTS of control line activity including combat, carrier landing, aerobatics and this....although they were telling me the number of people joining is minimal. I was lucky to catch this action. Cheers Dom (Essential RC)
@@EssentialRC I'm new to fixed wing. They let me have a go at Weston Park. I saw some electric 3d models rigged up for control line, might try that. I've yet to be convinced it's more than a gimmick but looks fun enough to give it a go for shiggles.
From my point of view as a comparative young un' the adherence to IC engines and custom build balsa makes it a bit inaccessible. Control line needs an electric foamy or two if they want new people.
Fraser Steen I think the nationals has had its day, likewise the BMFA
@@johnwalpole8142 I don't know about that but the membership does need to learn to make itself ok with advances in new technology that are making the hobby much more accessible. Mavic pilots are new bretherin, not enemies ruining it for the rest of us.
A Pulse Jet ?? Too Cool!! Thanks Guys
First time i see a plane doing the tethered thing....yesterday was the first time ever i came across the concept of tethered racing.
From watching the first 6 videos on it i had gained a little understanding and was aware that 'something was being launched by someone equipped with a precision launching device (a brush in 3 videos) with the something rapidly accelerating to a speed of over 200+ mph becoming a blurred something'
Luckily the 7th video covered the preparation for racing the 'somethings', which turned out to be cars, that were the result of some high quality workmanship.
Holy smokes! It's way faster than I thought.
For the size those pulse jets are impressive, a friend of mine had one that topped out at 197 mph a few years ago but couldn't break 200. Definitely a cool hobby.
So much more fun and exciting to watch the BMFA Free Flight and controline segments, than the boring R/C.
The main thing is that in control line flying the action happens in small perimeter at a short distance from the spactator. It is a circular theater.
That is BONKERS. I will admit, as a RCer, it doesn't especially fun - but I can't help but respect the sheer skill it must take. I could barely SEE the thing until it ran out of fuel! :P
Hey Dom. England sure is a land of eccentrics. ;-)
Many years ago the old engineer at the local mill asked me to see if I could rouse up a better set of plans for a model pulse jet whilst on holidays in Britain. (He had almost burned down his garage with his first home brew attempt!) Spent a day traipsing around the model & bookshops in London with no success. Nowadays you'd just Google it . :-)
Indeed. How times have changed. Almost makes life too easy. Cheers Dom (Essential RC)
The internet HAS made SOME THINGS _much_ easier!
4:51 my heart will go on 😂😂
I know it's all about the planes, but that Cobra in the background at 3:31 to 3:40 😍😍❤
Edit: The speaker at the end of the race declares 204.4 MPH and not as I wrote (by heart) 204.04, then:
204.4 MPH to which it corresponds
:
328.945 Km / h (if the speed is declared in land miles)
378.55 Km / h (if the speed is declared in nautical miles)
For Clarity.
Zola
204.04 mph which correspond to 328.37 km / h ( land miles )
very impressive.
tnx for this video Dom,
Cheers!
@Karl with a K It Is powered with a pulsoreactor... Not with a set of solar sail!
Really cool example of the doppler effect!
Control line RCs are actually good for excersizing, it is like running, arm exersizing, and body exersizing all at ONCE!!
Forkin awesome reminds me of when the smart kid showed foghorn leghorn the ropes ondat one episode great job better than a drone
The first 40 years of childhood for men are the most fun...😁👍
Editing is a wonderful thing. For those of you who don't want to be bored by watching setup and fueling, move to 4:51 in the video. That's when they actually start flying. The flight stops at 5:27... then there is more boring stuff until they replay the flight in slomo from 7:01 to 8:48. Seriously, this video would have been awesome if edited down to 2 minutes. Great flight. Just don't need all the stuff that 90% of viewers don't give a crap about. The other thing you can do is move your cursor to the timeline. Look for the first large hump and the second small one...then watch another video.
Wow. A pulse jet with wings. Ladies and gents it's a flying trombone
The centrifugal force must be enormous!
Probably about rips his arms off.
Do this near London & folks in nursing homes would be diving for cover !
I have a red Dynajet pulse jet with several spare petal valves. I bought it for £5 in 1970 and have never fired it up. I believe the German Doodlebugs worked on the same Brauner principle
V1: Same principle, same kind of noise
Guy in the middle in white needs a medal.. how didnt he fall over.. id be well dizzy

Well that is where your astronaut’s training came in handy. You can’t imagine how hard these planes where to hold onto. It was very important how much fuel you put into it also. Too much fuel and you could loose it running in circles for to long.
Oh. I was waiting for him to throw up.
Love it.
Go around and around in circles! Gosh! What fun! ;- b
Unbelievable...Ive seen Pulse Jets but never a CL one. 😷😵😲
Saw the thumbnail and was like, “hmm what’s this?”
8:27 I love it.
Im suprised the dude in the center could stand after spinning that fast.😂
That dood in the middle must have been dizzy af
I LOVE SEEING VETERANS IN ACTION
Absolute mad lads! =)
Even at 0.25x playback speed it's fast.
Ive never been so bored with an anti climax
Nice! You guys should market this! I would buy one.
The Schmidt's duct - the official name for a pulse jet engine - is a simpliest jet machine ever, no moving parts inside, only fuel, a spark plug and an initial air stream to open up this needle valves and a lot of fun and trust to weight ratio !
Sorry, but it's the ramjet that's the simplest jet machine. Schmidt's duct is just one type of pulsejet that uses an intake valve, although there are indeed valveless pulsejets that are almost as simple as a ramjet.
It's outrageously dangerous and reckless, someone could seriously get hurt or even killed in your pursuit of so-called 'fun'.
I love it, sign me up! 😜 🍻
People do this!? Love it!
Everybody gangsta until the guy let go of the rope.
VERY GOOD PULSE JET AIR PLANE, BRASIL OK.
Ha! the slowmo at the end - V1 - when the engine stops wait for the bang.
Daymn that is fast!
Super speed!!!
cool sunset speedohmmeter
That's cool. Do a pulse to a ram jet. Go supersonic!
Thanks for filming and sharing. Interesting to see the mix of comments, I fly RC, FF and Control line. I have always flown control line combat, insane fun and spectacular to watch. I was involved running combat at this years nats and we had 60 entries in total.
Participating in all forms of model flying is saddens me that all aero modelling is suffering, the average age at my popular RC club being about 60 years old and I wonder at the age of 40 what aero modelling will be when I am in my 60s. Lets hope we get more people coming into the hobby, channels like this help with this greatly.
Thanks Mike. I hope the same. Cheers Dom, (Essential RC)
Local media reporter: what do you for living?
Spinner guy: I work at the airport.
That's scary as all get out! Wow!
Super sonic speed
I cant belive😳
That was awsome.
Waow, verry big speed yesssssss
like Scott Crossfield when he flew the X-15, glad when it ran out of gas.
Holy crap! Two hundred and four mph!! What ever happened to those little , one cylinder Balsawood, prop planes with the glo-plug?
That little Phyre Phart sounded like it was saying "your lying, your lying".
I didn't know people still flew control line. Look great though!
Imagine one of these buggers snapping free and picking you off. Flown head height too. No throttle either it would seem. I think I trust being around RC more.
Ok, now try that without the post to hold onto.... what could possibly go wrong?
The post is actually to stop you cheating by towing the plane, or shortening the lines by standing back from the middle.
I don't know about you but I can't wait to see some nitwit try!
Wow indeed! Dizzying even in slow motion.
I wonder how the Germans made it start so easily during WWII did they know something we don't.
"if you're not first, you're last!" -Ricky Bobby
Yep. That looks like a lot of fun ...
Are you making a RC version of this Pulse Jet. Wow! Is that faster than a Jet Cat powered model?
