the B-52 has 8 engines. It can still land with 4. As for the model in the video, that's another story. Sad to see all that money and years of work go up in smoke.
From the looks of the crash the radio may have failed or with it being so windy, a little wind shear may have indeed stalled the airplane with not enough altitude to recover. This RC crash is very similar to a Real B-52 crash that was caught on tape of the airplane entering a very steep turn and with roll control only being with spoilers not enough altitude and a high speed induced stall will get you every time.
oh boy, what a beauty; first flight looked perfect....second, well, thats models for you....my condolences, I've been there too....anything left?

I wonder if there are other RC B-52s such as the G and the H.But I guess it can be simply repainted :-P

You actually can use jet fuel (kerosene) in those models, just a scale amount though depending on how realistic your plane is

It's two different clips on two different days, same airfield though, and if I didn't know any better, I'd say they were two different planes.

holy crap. that sucks. Beautiful model. Why did it crash? Flying pig too heavy for that steep banking turn? Looks like it just stalled to me.
