  • these planes don't go anywhere near the height of a passenger plane.... and it's not FPV, it's watch the plane and fly it! - I learned a lesson, if you lose sight of the plane, just put the plane into a downward spiral and it will come out of the clouds.... Now I TRY and get above the clouds! VERY COOL VIDEOS! - I have a few posted already!

  • Glad it got lost in the fog...hope you didn't recover the FPV gear!  Crap like this is going to get the sport "Regulated" by the FAA due to idiots that pose a threat to "Airspace security violation"...like this!

  • THAT WAS COOL VIDEO NICELEY DONE..

  • lol at 1:44 wing falls but srry about tht

  • Moral of the story... Live and Learn... next time I'll just put the plane into a spiral/roll downward!

  • wat city is this

  • Yes

  • VFR into IMC, gets 'em every time.

  • lol tat happend to me about a year ago but some how it landed on my parked car whic was 5 blocks away

  • THAT SAME THING HAPPENED TO ME 30 MINS AGO!!!!!!! BUT IT WAS JUST ABOUT DARK i was flying in a parking lot and lost it (i could hear the engine running though i put on half power and hoped for the best) me and my dad drove down pretty far (i was flying a hz supercub)and found it laying there all in one peice nothing broke off not even the propeller!!!! it was right next to a bunch of houses and trees!!!!

    im the luckiest person in the world tonight

    its hard to explain

  • Supercubs are great, they are very durable trainers. I have tons of footage of rookies bouncing them off the pavement, in slow mo, it looks very cool, and they are usually fine. Throw some glow in the dark light sticks on the supercub next time, with scotch tape. I just did a night flight with my balsa nitro trainer.

  • That is funny and im sorry about the plane make another video of the whole city good luck

  • im gonna use my book light...lol

  • If I were greg, I'd never let you fly the plane again!

  • I think u should learn to fly or fly in a open area rather than in a city. not just for ur safty but 4 others. if u had hit someone with that plane u could of really hurt someone. and there is less chance of crashing. dont matter if field is bad just do it. can hand launch and land on the field. but bad luck anyway.

  • yeah... look at all the people that were around ... loser

  • he should have realy flw in the park,also on a sunny day

  • Not bad if it was Greg's first flight...! I wonder what people in the buildings thought if they saw the plane buzzing by....

  • cool, lucky it ended up crashing into a building:D

  • didn't it crash into a tree?

  • lol cool m8

  • greg, piece o advice. before you put someones life in jeopardy other than yours, familiarize yourself with instrument flying.

    thanks

  • I agree with Hootydavis who has already left you a comment... First off... for a 43 year old, you should have better reading comprehension... Greg is 12 years old (and probably comprehends better than you), his father flew into the fog. Second rc planes don't have 'instuments'...

  • Boy, i'm glad that we got that straight. Like i didn't know rc planes don't have instruments. First of all moron, I am a pilot. Secondly, flying a re plane in fog conditions is extremely dangerous .

  • If you know that rc planes don't have instuments, why did you advise "familiarize yourself with instrument flying"? As for putting peoples lives in jeopardy... During that entire flight, did you see even ONE person that could have been hit? The odds of hitting someone are better at an airshow or flying field. MORON!

  • I lost my plane due to pilot error.(I suck)Fishing line and a sinker got it out of the oak tree 4 days later.I'll be back in the air soon.Great video.

  • wow your a astonishing guy, first of all for flying into a cloud and second of all for geting it stuck up a massive tree, but mainly becuase even tho the plane im guessing cost about $100 you broke a window... what made you not stop after you broke the window?!? i want that plane! its a peice of history! *not joking*

    im going to favorite this clip

    tell me when you crash his new plane hahaha

  • so thats why it looks like "liberty city" then ;-)

  • nice vid, reminds me of GTA 3 in the clipped wing cessna!

    what city is it?

    Years ago i had a radio failure on a RC ane and it flew away, it came down on a house roof about 2 miles away and took out 5 tiles!We have insurance for that in the UK but you have to be flying at a proper flying site for it to pay out ;-)

    have you seen rc dons vids? have a look they're awesome

  • New York City... Borough of Queens... Town/City of Flushing

  • into the tree. Almost into the building

  • what song is this and what band? anyone know?

  • the song.... an excerpt (my favorite section) of Perpetual Change by YES

  • thanks for telling me. sounds great!

  • How fast were your plane going and how high?

  • Lucky you didn't hit somoenes window or kill someone with that.

  • Yeah... we all see the many people around .... that would have been bonus points!

  • Gringo tonto.. en la ciudad no...

  • ENGLISH PLEASE !!!

  • Looks like fun, thanks. This is why whenever I hear the sound and don't see a weedeater, I run and duck.

  • Great story. Good job it did not fly through someones window. I lost a Bearcat the same way a few years ago, but it was on a country estate so had no tall buildings next to it. I had to leave it. Well, about a year later a storm blew the tree over, The A/C returned to me but it was not recognisable as such. I never fly anywhere trees now!!!

  • you could have injured someone badly!

  • lol who cares, this is funny

  • go chack out our vids theres even one of a plane landing on a car!!!

  • My point being, if you get into this situation again, with your aircraft trapped in the clouds, put it into a spin by placing both control sticks full down and outboard. This should induce a spin, and with a trainer class airplane, simply releasing the sicks to neutral should be enough corrective action for the airplane to recover itself. Keep flying. That's the essence of true freedom!

  • In a different strain, I read an account from a Pitts (full-scale aerobatic biplane) pilot who said he was trapped on top of a cloud layer. He didn't have any instrument flight instruments to allow him to descend through the clouds, so he put the aircraft into a spin. This kept the aircraft in a known orientation (once in a spin, this aircraft tends to remain in a spin until the pilot recovers), and the pilot recovered underneath the clouds.

  • Softee64, Sorry for the loss! Remarkable video, nonetheless. And albeit late, I'm sorry, yet glad you had to block fr33dom34. I agree with and applaud all the educated pilots, both R/C and full-scale, who responded as rationally and intelligently as possible given the patent idiocy of "freedumb"'s posts.

  • for real gore check out crash vid by Sanovskiy

  • nice plane how much you give for it? im thinking.. to buy car or plane? help me xD

  • Go with the PLANE!

  • buy a plaaaane cars are good but you can only zip around in little circles but with a plane you can do cool amazingly hilarious moves:) just dont crash it

  • Poor plane.... RIP...

  • greeting from batemans bay in the land down-under.

    awesome footage dude,great to see your city from a real perspective. look forward to seeing some more.

  • you cant buy these flashing lights that are in real planes?

    they are quite a bit bright so finding in the fog would have been easier? ( or a anti-fog lamp? )

  • four words: Controlled flight into terrain.

  • Three letters.... I.F.R. : ) Cool video! Sorry about your plane...

  • Aw, what a shame but a cool video! Mind sharing what camera you used? Mine's way too heavy :)

  • Mustek DV4000 ...  Weights about 4-5 oz. I also have an Oregon Scientific about the same weight which I will be trying soon. ATC-1000

  • And by the way.... When the local police see me setting up my plane in a field, they ask how much the plane cost and wait until they see it fly.

  • I have blocked Fr33dom34 from posting. His immature posts, most of which have not make ANY sense, and constant cursing is not what YouTube is about. Intelligent conversations only please. Fr33dom is the biggest loser on YouTube. A total French ignoramus!

  • owned

  • kool...how much of the plane did u recover? Sad loss but at least you got video showing the crash...would have been funny if the video had shown the falling to earth of the camera...

  • that was cool how an rc plane actually got lost in a cloud or fog,whatever ya wanna call it.

  • Awesome vid!!

  • Now THAT was fun!! Great music, nice job!! Could have added an interview of you guys laughing about this... I bet you guys are fun to hangout with. Any more adventures?! my best to you, ~Tom

  • You two are pieces of work. Take a story of a father and his son doing something together... something of value and you... umm... clowns stoop to where you're at. Pitiful. How 'bout y'all both enlist in The Corp and put your energy to use???

  • Freedom, a spinning blade can kill, but no one that small

  • yes it does. end of discussion, no-education idiot ;)

  • Are you serious? thats is a battery powered plane, sure mybe it would hurt if it hit you, but lets not go so far as to say it could kill someone or 9/11 all over again, come on, the aint that dangerous.

  • a spinning blade can kill. period

  • r there any legal issues with flying that thing around populated areas?  4' wingspan sounds like it could seriously injure someone if it crashed into them.

  • Yes, I have to pay for what I damage. While retrieving the plane I broke a window. I paid for it. Crashes are far are few between, especially with the more experience you have. A while back, someone put on an air show inside Shea Stadium. The guy, (an experienced RC pilot) crashed into the crowd and people got hurt. That has given the hobby a bad name. Hopefully, I will not lose control ever again. Life is about taking chances sometimes.

  • Cool video. That said, in all fairness it was not responsible to fly that plane in that environment. You very well could have seriously injured someone. If the plane is too fast to keep close-in you should get farther away from the City. That could have been a kid or a windshield that plane hit instead of a tree.

  • You sound a lot like Freedom from a few posts back... Go check. Have a nice day :-)

  • > Life is about taking chances sometimes.

    You should take those changes with your life, not others'.

  • yes there is, its illegal .. the blades of the propeller could have killed somebody

  • if i ever see you or one other of those stupid idiot flying rc's in citys, putting lives of our kids in danger, i rip your no-brain head off.. immature shithead..

  • Look who's calling who immature. How about shutting your mouth, tough guy.

    And BTW, nice video.

  • LOL, lets put it this way, YOU shut your mouth, no-education no-life lamer ;)

  • RE: And BTW, nice video. THANKS! It's amazing a person calling themselves 'Freedom' wants to take away my freedom to fly.

  • you dont have freedom to fly, they have rules for the safety of peoples walking in the street, i want to ensure their freedom to walk safely in the streets.. moron

  • freedom: you suck. There are more dangerous things in the city than rc airplanes. Also for a person so concerned with education you're being awfully rude...so F... YOU. Overeacting prick. Get a Hobby, or let's start with an easy one- GET A LIFE.

    Softee: nice Video.

  • looks like I have a better life than you, egocentric idiot.. he had to pay for the repairs.. he said it itself.. so the repairs might easily have been a 7 years old eye, instead of a broken windos.. so you are all fucked.. stupid irrespectful childs ;)

  • What's with the "mature" attitude, it seems that the only person behaving childish is you and please stop trying to prove your point...we all get it. It can take a 7 years old eye,it's true...so does a pencil you moron and they have millions of them in schools.

  • well a pencil doesnt fly in the air and falls over a city.. idiot..

    think a bit, kid

  • Wow... You are really a piece of work! You belong in France with all the other crybabies. The USA does all the fighting for them anyway. How is your Freedom?

  • Lol, first of all, i am fucking far from living in France, im not one of those stupid idiots.. but one other sure thing is that americans are way more stupid than stupid france people.. americans are responsible for the near end of humanity because of pollution, its a know fact.. americans are the shame of the world.. everyone knows that, those stupid fat mc donald killed everybody with them :)

  • Loser !!!

  • looks like you are the loser here, what do you think, bad loser :)))

  • Yeah...Thanks for your help with the war effort too there buddy.....When your media wanted our protection in Iraq, we told them to fuck off, and then we made them wait outside the fence and told them to get you French fucks to help us out....I'm glad I didn't hold our breath!

  • who is the "we" youre talking about :) as if you were part of the thing, you were not there, nor I was not there either, but its a known fact that canadians are way more intelligent than americans, thats all ;)

  • Hmm, I wasn't there, eh?

    Look up HM-14, and a MH-53E crash on April 2, 2002 in Manama, Bahrain( I was on it). Also, look at the NHA award for the aircrewman of the year award for 2003 in region 4 (embarked)(I was awardd it for my Iraq involvement).

    While you were sitting on your ass, I was flying.

    Its ok, some people are just born pussies....I know the French are! You damn Commie!

  • Hahahaha, yeah right :) first of all, kid, we both know you never went there, second, between the two of us, I am the one who's got his pilot licenses, so lets put it this way : you are the pussy.. and frenchs are way better than stupid american fat mc donald eaters, planet polluters, twin-towers victims. ;) period, i guess, lol

  • You sir, are simply an asshole!

  • your fixation about ass holes tells us a lot about your unhappy childhood.. who was it.. your dad ? your uncle ?

    lets put it this way, stupid kid : you are the asshole, putting the life of our children in danger by your immature behaviour. period

  • who was it.. your dad ? your uncle ? .... It was YOUR MOTHER WHO PUT her penis in me! Brother!

  • Ok dude, you are not the only one on YouTube who can fly a plane, the point is that flying simulators and R.C. are plenty of fun for folks who don't want to spend thousands of Dollars and countless hours memorizing FARs. As for hatred of America , are you a police state loving Euro trash who would just love to put a CCD camera in every bathroom. Or are you just pissed that you where denied entry???

  • OK, softee64, awesome video and plane.. I am building an F4U Corsair From hangar9 and it's a lot of fun.. congratulations on choosing such a great and intelligent hobby. And you french retard, shut your damn mouth and stop disgracing the french republic. You are an incoherent pile of racist and immature dumbass!! Youtube is full of people like you and I hope you end up in jail forever. Regurgitated pudtrid anal fecal matter..

    P.S. Softee, excuse for the swears,sorry!

    have a great Life.

  • Shut up you cunt! You made your point.

  • not smart at all to fly in a city....

    i remember that i once flew one of my planes in a tree, i had a video of it, but sadly it got removed from my host site....

  • aw man awfull crash

  • deficiente

  • i need one of em camaras...

  • wut kind of camera?

  • Mustek DV4000 - weights about 4.5 oz. - 640x480 - 30 frames/sec.

  • who let you FLY around a CITY ... it could be 9/11 all over again ...

  • great...

  • Haha.. Since i Lost contol of the airplane and it went a couple of km away, Im not taking any chanses of flying at long distances from me. IT was good that you found it.

  • what kind of plane is that??

  • It's called a Superstar. It's a trainer and has a 4ft. wingspan. It's the thumbnail for one of my other videos... with views of how the camera is mounted.
