- Wingspan 5.3m
Weight 140kg
Engine 2-cylinder 521cc Hirth ultralight
Helmut Müller’s 85% scratch-built Bücker looks like it could carry a small person! The 17.5-foot-span model weighs in at 286 pounds and is powered by a Hirth 521cc 2-stroke (intended for an ultralight!) turning a Fiala 60 x 20 wood propeller. The model uses industrial-quality Tonegawa Seiko servos, a redundant radio system and a dual-ignition starter. Helmut glued and sewed the Seconite covering (like that used on some man-carrying planes) that replicates the plane that Romanian captain Alex Papana flew at the Olympic Games in 1936 (the first and last time that flying was an Olympic sport). Thanks go to RC Media World for sharing this great footage from the Megaflugshow in Göttingen, Germany.
If I was a kid, I would figure out some way of getting a ride in that! The proportions are perfect for a child size pilot!
That would actually work too
Wow love the Jungmeister
Unbelievable!! As a pilot, I cannot see how someone on the ground can fly (and land) an aeroplane as well as that - I could not do as well if I was sat in it.
I almost forgot to add: what a magnificent piece of kit!! 😉
I was thinking the exact, same thing. Wow !!!
This is bigger than the Bede, which carries a real pilot! This is crazy, that's why I love it! Thumbs up well deserved!
would it? …could it? …..never mind the “should it?!?”
A simple but wonderful flight! Nice going! My favorite airplane
My daughter, 16 years old, is now doing an ultra-light aircraft course. A very expensive course. Theory - PLN 1,200 Practical course - PLN 15,000-
🤦Unbelievable! What a giant beauty!
What a beautiful landing. Wow
Fantastic aeroplane well done..
Unbelievable. I wonder if one has to submit a flight plan😂 But, I'm impressed, all the same👌
That is a fine model airplane. Very scale like in flight. I enjoyed the sounds as well. Thanks for sharing your model with us. Guy in Columbia Mississippi
Ungeowenlich, fantastisch !
**** RESPECT
Great presentation
Magnifique ✨👍
The cost and effort put into that surely it could have been scaled up a little more and turned into an experimental?! But fair play what a piece of art!
I know that wow is an understatement.
How many man hours to accomplish this project.
a schönes großes ding wow
it sounds quiet for such a big bipe . did I read that rite 500 plus cc 's for this? very nice build.
Scale plane made with magnificent detail very close to the original, it only lacked having carried out a more varied and typical aerobatic flight routine of this aircraft such as the basic Cuban eights; barrel rolls; snap rolls; hammer heads; wing overs, which are required maneuvers in an aerobatic routine and not too aggressive to risk the plane too much. -After all, it was an airplane to do acrobatics and as such it is expected to be seen by the audience and judges of the event.
The plane belonged to the Romanian pilot Alexandru(Alex) Papana.Papană obtained his pilot's license in 1928 while in Romania, and was already setting altitude records in 1931. At the 1936 Summer Olympics in Berlin, he competed in gliding (which was a demonstration sport), finishing a respectable 12th as the only representative from Romania. This earned him an invitation to an aerobatics competition in Los Angeles.
Papană accepted the offer, and he and his plane, a Bücker Bü 133B Jungermeister (one of only two versions of that variant ever produced) with the registration YR-PAX, were flown from Frankfurt, Germany to New York, New York aboard the Hindenburg airship in August 1936. He then flew across the United States from New York to Los Angeles, winning the race between the cities. In Los Angeles, he won the national air races that were held there. In December of that year, Papană finished second with the Jungermeister in a race from Miami, Florida to Havana, Cuba.
At an airshow in Cleveland, Ohio the following year, Papană was in a battle with fellow aviator Count Hagenburg that ended up crashing the count's aircraft. Papană offered Hagenburg his aircraft, but the count refused.
Papană's aircraft was damaged on the runway at an airport in Chicago, Illinois in 1940. The plane was sold twice before being donated to the Smithsonian Institution in 1973. The aircraft is now located at the Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center in Chantilly, Virginia.
Papană later tested gliders for Northrop as a test pilot, many of his flights being documented in Flying magazine. He was involved in the trials for the P-61 Black Widow aircraft that would be involved during World War II for the United States Army Air Forces.
super!
It looks big enough to be flown by a person instead of by remote.
Top !!
I've seen smaller 'full size' aeroplanes. I'd love to fly a full size Bucket.
Schönes Modell, aber kein Looping drin?
Chuck the radio and hop in the bloomen thing!!
Great
it flies and looks like the real deal.

die flog nicht der Udet, sondern ein gewisser Alex Papana aus Rumänien:
de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexandru_Papan%C4%83#Als_Kunstflieger_und_Pilot_in_den_USA
er lieh diese seine Bücker dem deutschen Graf von Hagenburg bei einem Wettbewerb in den USA 1937....
Hi - FANTASTIC DISPLAY !!! The actual real life plane was transported in the USA under the belly of the mighty airship Hindenburg where her pilot lt. Alexandru Papană used it on airshows and for a while was sponsored by Shell. If sombody wants to see the actual plane flying please check out the movie The Great Waldo Pepper ( 1975 ) where Waldo idol the german flying ace Ernst Kessler ( Ernst Udet ? ) is using it to display an outside loop - the last great stunt which remained ....anyway after Papană returned to Romania the plane remained in the US being owned by many people and had a distinguished career helping many pilots to achieve top ratings in the aerobatic world. After many years ended up in the movie . At this point the original Bramo ( Argus ? ) engine was long gone being replaced by americans mainly Lycomings or Continentals generally when she acquired her new master. If my sources are right in the movie she is powered by a 260 hp Continental....After the movie was completed the airframe was seen very seldom in the air being at this point hopelessly out performed by much younger designs ....but her luck still holded out. Sombody acquired it and after a short return to the sky she was donated to the AIR & SPACE MUSEUM ( Smithsonian ? ) in Washington DC where after restoration she was - and still is !!!! - put on display in her original YR - PAX paint scheme. .....If sombody could confirm or deny any of this above mentioned- fabulation - about this wonderful aircraft please do so . Any new information is greatly appreciated. Many thanx to the building team for their efforts in recreating this famous aircraft type .... and FOREVER BLUE SKIES Herr Bücker wherever you are.
Diesmal hat die Motoraufhängung ja gehalten 😂😂😂😂
prima!
👍WOW
I have a small one (1 meter wingspan) I am planning to enlarge the plans (not this big). Maybe 2 meters.
If you crash one this size does NTSB get involved ?
장난감이 점점 더 실감나는 상황
It would also be cool with smoke coming from wing tips and scale modell woman standing on the top wing
Well this explains why moms don't ever ask you to baby sit there young kids.
How many man hours to build this airplane and how much was the $$$ investment? My guess; 750 hours and $6,500.00 USD. Thanks
Take me for a ride.
It’s big enough to get in and fly it.
No kidding!
The Ukrainians need to borrow this!
What type of Servo do you use ? For this big scale RC Plane?
Read the description. Some kind of industrial servos.
What is that? 1/0.99?
At that point why not just build one that you can fly in
사람키만한모형 항고기는어디에가면살수있는건가그게정말
When will someone over there fly a full scale F16 by RC????,, waiting, come on men with plenty of money, just do it
Модель заслуживает уважения.
これくらいデカいモデルだと実機と変わらんね😀💦てかパイロットはダミー人形なんかよりクマ🐻さんやブタ🐷さんが可愛いけどね🤩
😀 Etliche manntragende Ultraleichtflugzeuge sind auch nicht größer! 👍😀
Uniquely beautiful aircraft, I am thrilled. I just wonder why you mounted the propeller the wrong way round. Was that intentional or just an oversight? I think it flies wonderfully as it is. Best regards from Karlsruhe
it appears to be a pusher , turned into a puller....
What are you talking about ?
why?
Why not just make it FULL scale?!?!
Scale 1:2 ?
1:1.25 said the announcer.
@@my_dear_friend_ THX
Bucker I mean.
To big ,wouldn’t want to be in the crowd if it crashes and yes I know all about safety checks etc . Superb model all the same
i bet given a much longer runway or a bit more power my 150 lbs ass could fly that.
Electric start would have been the trick.
Le podría dar un paseito a mi perro
Imposant JA, aber was hat ein Fluggerät mit 140 KG noch mit "Modell"-fliegen zu tun? Meiner Meinung nach nix mehr...
Hllo infonesia Jepara jateng
May as well fly a real plane at this point
@@washout1000 I mean because of size and cost you may as well fly a real plane not an RC giant. Just an opinion from a micro flyer.
The money put into that toy could have bought him a real plane.
@@washout1000 Perfect Reply
bro this is not a model anymore, this shit is a real airplane lol kkkkkk, It must have real aviation register to fly LOL KKKKKKK
Why don't you just fly it yourself, probably big enough or are you scared to fly for real

I fly aerobatic gas models and to me that model though beautiful, is ridiculous. Whats the point, whats he trying to prove. Doesnt look like it has the performance (and fun) that a smaller model would have.
Each to their own.. He has made an outstanding aircraft.. Kudos to him... A project that size would require a lot of dedication and determination... So Well done..
I fly RC. That plane is dangerous and foolhardy
...der unterirdisch schlechte Sprecher....schlimm
Boring
