  • There were a few Mig-15s at Top Gun, but this one was the largest and by far my favorite. It had all the right details and had a very convincing painted metallic finish that looked much like natural metal. Unfortunately, I'm unsure of the make of the design, but the model was built by the master Phil Noel of www.pinnacleavi... and flown by Rei Gonzalez, the jet flew wonderfully! They finished 3rd in the team class.

    That was amazing! A scale model flown in true scale flight style.....A pleasure to watch.👍

    Excellent! The fact that this model didn't win the team scale category is a testament to the quality that is typical at Top Gun.
    Well done!

      There truly were some incredible scale models at Top Gun. It was great to see!

      I have a 2 hour video of Top Gun 2003 ( VHS) produced by SKS and Propwash Video, narrated by Frank Tiano. And yes, very high quality video of very high quality models.
      Cheers from Las Vegas, Nevada!

      Yeah, this mig was gorgeous. There was a BVM one there that had been covered in flight metal that was really nice too, but this one was my fave of the Migs. :)

    Great video!!!! (and filming)

    The mig 15 always looked like someone took the nose off to work on something on the plane especially when it’s sitting on the ground . That’s why the f86 Sabre is a cooler looking plane even though the mig was faster and heavier armed then the f86 .

    Great video of a great model! Makes me want to start on mines!

    • @Thercgeek
      @Thercgeek  Před 6 lety

      Do it, Mig 15s fly awesome! :) Though, I'd love to see a Mig17 come to market personally.

    • @Synwpn
      @Synwpn Před 6 lety

      I'll start sourcing new servos. lol. And you're right. Every Mig 15 I've had has flown awesome!

    Was there a strong crosswind upon takeoff and Landing that day?

    • @Thercgeek
      @Thercgeek  Před 6 lety

      Crosswinds were kind of the order of the day for the two days I was there. Made things pretty challenging.

    does it use fuel?

    • @Thercgeek
      @Thercgeek  Před 3 lety

      This use fuel as its powered by a micro turbojet engine.

    • @Thercgeek
      @Thercgeek  Před 5 lety

      oh dang! If it's repairable, it's definitely worth something!

    Great model, great flying and vid. Shame about the lawn-mower sounds in the background ;)

    • @Thercgeek
      @Thercgeek  Před 6 lety

      Unfortunately I had no control over the gassers in the background. :( They were running 5 flight lines during the course of the competition. I am looking at trying a more directional mic to see what that does to help remove that. Just won't give the full immersive stereo sound.
