It's quite annoying to hear all these anti-Spektrum rants.Just stuff it. Spektrum gets a bad reputation started by a few rumors that get out of hand and snowball. Not a damn thing wrong with Spektrum.
What is with putting the controller above his head? I'd be glued to the controls till that thing hits, not throwing up my controller to show everybody it's about to crash.
Very nicely photographed and edited! I really appreciate the close-up freeze-frames of the impact, as well as the debris shots. What more can one ask from a model jet crash? 8-D
Looks to me that he was using and work for spektrum.if that the cast o well maybe they pull the stuff of the market i lost 4 planes to spekturm one was a 50cc extra.
Footage looked very cool like an airshow clip, sorry about your crash those jets are expensive . Everybody crashes....not a case of if just a case of when and how bad its gonna be. bad luck chap.
Rather dramatic, nervous, stressful kind of music that's playing while the plane still flies and a rather great disater, death tragedy mourning kind of song that's playing in the end after the crash.
What happened? Did it lose the signal? How many receivers did it have in it? What radio product was he flying with? I believe in Futaba. I have never had any losses of signal in all the years with Futaba, if loss of signal was the cause that is.
Really Fabulous editing and excellent video-to-musical score! Top Notch. As for the actual loss; very sad and even more expensive. It was an excellent flying model and an interesting model choice.
Sucks man. Ive been there. This past summer i"ve had horrible luck with rc and lost over a grand on plane crashes. One lost signal and nosed dived into a field. one broke apart at over 100mph and spewed components across the field. Most were never found, and my last one, the elevon control horn broke off and went I went to pull out of a dive, it just rolled. Plowed into a corn field at over 160 mph about 15 feet from where I was standing. again most components, never found.
That really sucks!!! I know, I've crashed some nice planes because of glitches! Nothing you can do about that! I wish they made parts that worked perfect all the time.
Man that sucks. I feel for the owner. I know how much these things cost and how much time, energy & love goes into building them. I could clearly see the pilot knew what he was doing, the plane wasn't doing what his fingers were telling it to do. It's one thing to crash because of pilot error, it's even worse when parts malfunction and the aircraft grows a mind of it's own and is uncontrollable. Was a nice looking jet.
AAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.....................BAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAA..............HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, BAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. AWWWW TO BAD YOUR SAD LOL
The Pilots name is Ali Machinchy, he is one of the worlds best and well known RC pilots.This plane is one of his Hawker Hunters, his first actually. Unlike the discription the cause of this crash was never determined. If you know anything about turbine RC jets there are thousands of things that could go wrong. However those of us in this hobby can narrow it down to a few things possible.
I think it was pilot failure, look at when the plane was on inverted position before crash,. and the throttle stick was pulled down which is make the plane pointed down and crashed.
@aeromodeling LOL you are a dumbass, do you know anything about rc planes or jets or anything. Ali Machinchy flies on a mode 1 transmitter witch means his throttle is on the right and elevator on the left. "Freedom of speech is not all its hyped to be" or maybe he just got a bad one from Wal-Mart!!!
@vizzuleyes so in this video he was using mode 2? yes im newbie for this hobby. that was my opinon,sorry for that. i knew there are some mode for tx. and i got some basic technical knowledge for some 3D movement.
@aeromodeling No man opinion are how people learn. That comment was a dick move on my half, I sat here and read like two pages of comments of shit talkers got pissed. Ali Machinchy is an awsome pilot and a very kind guy. I think yours was the most intelegent questions there so I had to be a smartass to someone. Sorry man. But yes he is from and lives in the UK. The standard there is mode 1 like 2 is in the States. I forgot when they interviewed him for this crash but he flies both. vid is 2
@aeromodeling Pause and look again he is half to one quarter throttle full up elevator which makes a plane go nose down since he is inverted it should make the jet do an inverted bank straight up, He flies both modes 1 and 2 this is a two, throttle left, elevator right. I have seen him fly in person I would bet my whole hanger of jets that it was mechanical. An inverted pass is pretty simple for someone of his skill. Copy and paste his name and watch some of his flights then u may change opinion
Nnnoooooooooooooooooooooooo! Do these guys insure their models? I mean the time and cash can get into the tens of thousands, and since the risk of fire/explosion is so much higher than piston engined models it can be a complete loss whereas with piston engined planes you can at least savage servos, electronics, engine(s) etc.
@gaff2006 these pilots are good enough for the crashes to happen very rarely (if ever). there is no RC pilot alive with a perfect flight record, but the more you fly, the less likely the chances are that its going to happen.
Ahhh, remeniscent. Tengah, around 1965. 20 sqn Hunter flown by a Fg. Off Martin. Problem downwind over the bomb dump. He pointed it away and ejected. It came down just like that - BOOM ! - followed by Martin in his chute to land right beside it.
It wasn't loss of radio. The single battery failed. As it was being test flown, only one large main battery was fitted. Once that failed, that was it.
Normally Ali fits a battery backer in all his models, but this was a new aircraft.
@workonesabs Actually workonesabs Ali was interviewed about this crash and the reason was never determined, I will post the interview. He actually stated a servo failure was his first thought.
That is the exact reason that I as well as alot of modelers I know will not use spektrum systems. I have lost more planes due to spektrum systems than I have ever owned at one time.This is the reason that spektrum is coming out with the DSX system to replace the older DSM 2 and I hope they fix the problem with lockouts. That is why I stick with Futaba 2.4G and have bever had one problem.I fly FPV and have put just under a mile on my futaba 10CAG in a radio wave cluttered city safely.
@xjet oh well...I guess every vendor has a little MS Vista in them. Joking aside, specktrum brownouts has caused many folks to lose many planes. I know the argument/blame of low power, but hey, if I've ran my 72mhz for the last 5 yrs and it's ok, and all of a sudden my planes are dropping from the sky with specktrum,...something's going on.
