- First two flights are at the end (starting about 10min30sec). Been a long 5 years building this plane, but it was all worth while as well as it flies!! Here is a Late afternoon flight a few months later: • Beautiful evening flig...
Five years of work, truly a labor of love. That Stuka looks amazing!
I'm not a modeller myself but I can appreciate the jaw dropping level of commitment to such a project. Well done!
Not only he knows how to build it, in every detail. He also knows how to fly it. 2 very different skills. Very impressive.
Yes, unusual combination of skills indeed!
From one builder/flyer to another... hands down you're at the top of the class ! An amazing display of discipline and talent, both in the build and the flying ! Definitely of the best that I have seen. Congrats!!
Simply amazing! The best looking WW2 plane in my opinions. I loved the ME-109 as well but the wing design of the Stuka is just immaculate!
Absolutely beautiful build brother. You are a very talented person. Thanks for sharing
I’m glad he added the true to life insignias...the swastika and not some generic design.
We can't deny history.
@@hariszark7396 but this model does not resemble historical Ju87 at all, so it has nothing to do with history, this model is not Stuka 87 anymore, the shapes of wings and bow are not at all
@@jaxmax5563 when you make something like that, based on a true historical airplane in this case, you want to make it as close to real as you can. He may have not make it 100% identical but it doesn't matter. His effort was to build that aircraft from that nation and era in history. You may think this as an experimental model that never made it to the Luftwaffe's airfields....☺️
@@jaxmax5563 Maybe you can scratch build a better one?
@@tjs0004 He at least sees that this models looks nothing like the Stuka, so maybe he could actually build a better one.
Pat.....I don't like to throw this statement around or use it lightly but your a FREAKIN GENIUS....by far the most amazing and time consuming process that I've ever seen and it worked beautifully...my
hats off to you.....a maizing....nuff said
Bro, imagine if he could add the Jericho trumpets. That would be so cool!
I call the trumpets “Stuka Blyats”
Santa Julia is the real name, after Spanish Civil War 1938.
Imagine if he added an airsoft gun disguised as the 37mm bordkanone
*REEEEEEEEE* plane explodes due to shrapnel
How are they trumpets if they are wooden propellers with a fizzle hole though? Plus I wasn’t able to find an original blueprint of it only photo’s so I don’t know how these people could achieve such goal
Brilliant build! The large scale makes it fly like a full size aircraft, much more realistic, top man!
I didn't see a bomb drop on the underbelly...perhaps you could add one and drop it on the knuckleheads who gave your video a thumbs down! I really enjoyed it! Even buying models that you build with plans out of a box is a mostly lost art today. 5 years and from scratch...that's an accomplishment! Well done!
On the real Stuka's the bomb was mounted on a trapeze like arrangement that swung it clear of the arc of the propeller before releasing it as the plane was nearly perfectly vertical during a dive.
I also believe that on the left fixed gear the siren was placed
i believe that he could fit airsoft mg"s in there too... that would be awesome
Great build sir and you are the best pilot I've ever seen, smooth and scale speed too. Congratulations! I love the way your whole family was with you.
I echo the other's comments: What a build! What dedication! What tenacity! There wouldn't be 20 out of a 100 that would have even attempted this project, let along complete it. My hat is definitely off to you. Note: I built 3 Experimental Amateur Build airplanes - flew the last one for 13 years. Your build was definitely more difficult than mine. You, sir, are a fabricator. I know the hard work and dedication that goes in to these projects, be they full scale or less. You had the guts to take it all on and to realize a beautiful outcome. By the way, those wheel landings were superb. Difficult to do with any size airplane - takes finesse' which you have. Many thanks for letting us see this wonderful project.
Wow! The wing loading looks perfect. This airplane fly's beautifully. Congratulations!!! Your very hard work has payed off.
Brilliant. How far we've come since my own feeble R/C efforts in the early 1950's. Wonderful.
Very impressive from start to finish ... you have a lot to be proud of.
Wow! Five years! You got the aerodynamics perfect. It flies like a dream!
Wow! Beautiful build and the flying sure looked real to me. The take offs and landings looked so real. Bravo!
That was an epic film...beautifully detailed model and the first flight...amazing!
What a beautiful model,,and the electric inbuilt starter, Great flying too, well done.
FANTASTIC JOB!!!!! My favorite aircraft Patrick!
From one Brit to an American Cousin, SIMPLY STUNNING! Well done.....
Awesome build and flight! Thanks for posting.
I scratchbuild small RC planes out of cheap foamboard, and maiden flights still scare the puddin' out of me. I can't imagine flying something like your Stuka for the first time. Amazing! What a great build.
HI R/C FREND BEEN R/C BUILDING FROM PLANS AND DESIGNING FOR 40 ODD YEARS . AND FULL TIME FLYING.
SO NICE TO SEE THAT THERE ARE SOME REAL BUIDERS AND FLYER STILL OUT THERE. I APPRECIATE WHAT YOU HAVE ACHIEVED.
NOT LIKE SOME OF TODAY'S FLYERS ON LINE CREDIT CARD OUT OF A BOX TODAY AND FLY TOMORROW.
WELL DONE LOVE IT R/C FREND.
I loved the fact that you are honest about your tryouts and revisions. A journey taken is worth as much as arriving! I hope your son recognises that he has an awesome Dad! Best wishes - Rick in London
Simply amazing. Beautiful, detailed, inspired...and it FLYS!
Brilliant! I was in awe and then...”the tool man”. Love it!
Amazing work, beautiful flight! Can’t wait to see the fully completed aircraft!
Older video, but it does bring back memories when I was building and flying RC. I even got to the point of teaching others to fly RC via the typical buddy-box system. So I know how much time, effort and work it takes to make such aircraft. And I can also understand the absolute "pucker" factor on your first, second and sequential flights with that build. I was holding my breathe on the first landing, but you did it very smoothly and life-like. Bravo sir, Bravo!
Freaking beautiful! Well done!!!!
Great work! A really good result from the build and silky-smooth flying skills - very well shown with the nice landings! Well done!
Outstanding! Beautiful scale model and looks to be perfectly balanced. Congratulations.
_Congrats. Nice built and successful maiden with brilliant landings !!!_ *THUMBS UP*_
Super awesome build!!! Great piloting.
Beautiful work, absolutely beautiful. I was literally praying all would be ok on that first flight. Great video, and no shitty music. Please make more videos. You are awesome sir, a true master craftsman.
Masterful craftsman, building skills, imagination, and flying. Thanks for sharing the journey … loved every second. Kudos from one builder/modeler/flyer to another.
What a beautiful piece of work. Congratulations.
Much respect and many thanks for the upload. I was particularly impressed by the superb maiden flight landing. Looking forward to future flights here on YT.
One thing you did that so many others don't do was to keep the weight on the heavy side (more to scale) with enough horses. Makes for stable flight in wind. I like the way you strengthened and over built everything from the wings to the landing gear. The swastika was used as a symbol of good luck by many European countries before Hitler forever changed it to mean hatred and domination.
Amazing how smooth that plane is!! 👍🏻
Just wow on every count, design, build, problem solving , flying and an incredible landing 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Skills my friend....you have them in abundance! Thank you for showing us your passion.
That was awesome, what an AWESOME plane! Thank you!
Astonishing video Patrick. All my hats are off to you. Good flying...
Beautiful build..... Great job..... She look's gorgeous!!!!!!!
Sweet takeoff and landing. That's a nice looking bird you built. Thanks for sharing.
Amazing work. You are a mixture of engineer, mechanic and artist. Beautiful giant Stuka.
Your first landing was so slick, couldn't have been better! Beautiful plane, love me some Stukas. Well done!
Outstanding! Great job.
Such Attention to detail.
What a Beautiful Plane, he’s ended up with!!
Fabulous model and love the build pics. I dabbled in these many years ago, but never got to this level. I had a habit of converting all my RC models back to kit form and every crash took part of my soul. I cannot imagine how bad I would feel if I crashed this one after all those years of work.
WOW...Just WOW! Thanks for posting.
Great job. Beautiful plane.
That's quite impressive! Congratulations!!!
Very WELL DONE. EXCELLENT JOB, GOOD FLYING and LANDING TOO! SMOOTH ALL THE WAY.
Well Done!!!!! Beautiful airplane
Excellent Builder,Great aircraft,Awesome Flying..Congrats!
What brilliant craftsmanship. Beautiful. My great grandmother saw the real things come screaching down on her in Greece during early phase of WW 2.
This is FANTASTIC.... Thank you for sharing....
Fascinating... fantastic craftsmanship. Congratulations and thanks for sharing. But 5 years!!!! Incredible dedication.
Awesome build, and love those Tim Allen clips.
What a wonderful achievement! Stuka was an iconic plane and you recreated it. Well done 😊😊
Far out man that was an epic journey, way way kool!!!
*cool
What an absolute delight to see a scale r/c model aircraft flown at something like scale speed. Well done. Oh yes and the build was exceptional too! Good luck with it. Regards
Beautiful work. Lovely looking model.
Absolutely awesome. My favourite of all the WW11 planes. Stunning
Absolutely Stunning Man! Fantastic work on the aircraft and both flights shown were perfect. I would have been very nervous on that maiden flight, but her balance and trim looked spot on. Great piloting and landings 😎👍
Well done. I was into rc aircraft in my earlier years and careers got in the way and now I'm back in it and I to am building a stuka.i love the look of it.ill refer to yours when I need to.again well done sir
Big patience and an awesome reward. Good job.
One of the best T/O's and Landings I've seen on YT.
A truly amazing achievement & awsome build. Thanks for sharing. 😉✌️
Great job of building and flying. Good luck with it!
I'm lost for words! Just brilliant. It gave me great pleasure watching it fly and the very process of building the plane.
Respect and greetings from Russia.
Great job!!! Beautiful mode,. Best of luck.
Just stumbled across this , mind blowing engineering crossed with artistry, amazing work.
Great project. Fantastic craftsmanship. Congratulations!
Super awesome plane!!
Wonderful model, excellent job!
Superb workmanship and LANDING ! As a 12,000 pilot I think landing without seeing the airspeed would be very difficult to prevent a stall but you make it look easy
gentleman this is only a sport/hobby. this is a great build no matter what country had it. my first plane was a line control model like this one. I bought it WOOLCO, IN AMERICA. please do the math. Patrick you did it right. for all of us who viewed this, why did we stay to the end?
Fantastic job well done!
Nice build... Awesome landings
Excellent job my man Well done.
Top RC plane. Perfect work. Congratulation!
Absolutely amazing!!
Awesome work!
Beautiful! And the most realistic R/C (1st) takeoff and landing I've ever seen!
Epitome of RC modelling!!! Metal canopy frame, electric starter, etc,? Hans-Ulrich Rudel would have been proud of you!!! OUTSTANDING!
Great job. Dad and I used to build 'em. Your son adores you man. Enjoy that.
Gorgeous Stuka my friend! I've been flying about ten years and can't wait to have the opportunity (time/shop space) to build a large scale warbird! I'm sure that was a tense but rewarding maiden flight! Wishing you many more!
Very smooth take offs and landings
inspirational to see reward from a long passionate journey..... thanks Patrick
Very nice job and excellent flying!
absolutely fantastic, what patience you must have! what skill too. nice to see the darker side of aircraft, everyone has spits n mustangs etc but see a stuka thats so rare!I would love to have your model!!!
Very very impressive and She looks Great.
Nice build. Glad it flies nice. Good luck with it.
Beautiful work and landings!
Beautiful ! A labor of love, happy trails !
Great job, I'm quite impressed
