Weston Park Somenzini Yak Crash

[fisherboom]

Wave and cheer kids come on kids hola hola !

Shut up waffling DB we are trying to enjoy are selfs ! :P

[mawright89]

@fisherboom Hey, leave DB alone... he is the second best bit about any show.

[shashair]

Sad! Hope that can be fixed!!

[traxxasfan321]

When you first here, "oh he's crying" you think, what a wimp. Then about a second later your like, damn I feel for ya.

[marsbar1965]

pilot ok ?

[MrCommonlane]

i hate db sound

[canonphoto]

Well that's a change, most planes go in the other way! Probably a perfectly good tail section out there you could Gorilla Glue on there! I am yet to damage the tail of 1 of my planes

[wickedinsight]

its part of the hobby

[SaraDirect23]

The guy crashed because he made the wrong decision (he put the plane there, and he knew engines can fail) so he is unsafe!

The commentator is an ass, a crash like that is not funny, expensive, dangerous and stupid!

[tomascratchbuild3D]

@SaraDirect23 he was way out there! you should see where me and my buds fly ours! lol it was a DLE, what do you expect?!!! lol the only times my DA 50 died were my fault... 1, bad vent line system when i was starting out, 2. clogged fuel filter, 3. forgot to set my flying throttle trim... I love my DA's!

[11owenb]

the commentator kikcs ass if if you think hese an asshole theres somethin wrong with you

[standomax]

lol did the same thing to my yak except on landing had a microburst and just took my huge yak and same damage right in half and wing tips punched but a week later ;-)

[slepko66]

buy electric :)

[EvvyThomas]

DA = FAIL.. Ahahahhaa!! Get a DLE.

[swiggy109]

@EvvyThomas DLE WAY BETTER THAN DA and for HALF PRICE!

[EvvyThomas]

@swiggy109 Agreed!

[straighttailpilot]

LOL! Hes Crying! HAHAHA

[SvenOkonomi]

Dont fly what you cant afford to lose. Cry me a river, flyboy.

[Millard97]

hahaha it literally ate shit

[tnerual888]

all because of the comentator .. i wonder if he is able to fly man.. WTF...

stop your flight now now now, yeh , he did immediately.. HAPPY NOW

[PepitoNice]

oups !

[damafia29]

i fly rc and that commentator made me spit tea all over my screen when he said well he'll get in his car easier now, classic, but hey its all part of the fun if you cant laugh about a crash, dont start flying they ALL crash one day no matter how good you are

[wawshaproductions]

You fly you crash you laugh.....it all happens get over it

[OCDRC]

It's not like it was painstakingly assembled by the guy, people in sweat shops put then together, which is why he can just buy a new one. It is one of the risks with hovering this close to the ground and if you are not prepared to have this happen, don't fly that close to the ground!

[jaimesarabia]

i agree ... not a funny comment

[RotorHead2652]

that dude speeks the truth ... half of the fun at rc shows is the crashing ... yes its amazing to see the high performance piloting ... but its also awsome to watch crashes its part of the fun and like he said just money no lives at stake

[dominich4962]

the commentator is being sarcastic at the wrong time that's gonna wind the pilot up even more

[gabysande]

Is that DB sound Collin,That guy is being in the trade for ages,and it put a spark to the hobby,nothing wrong with the comment,those pilots can afford them crashes,and for sure is not the first one!

[stevevmc01]

da 50 thats your problem!

[HeliDragon510]

"It will fit in his car better" Funny but harsh, gotta love the brits!

[jonnyasprin]

that was a "short" performance.

[JOSITO958]

Que putada eh! mu buena KIKE, eres el mejor!

[DrewYO54]

"Oh No! Well that is a lot shorter now...get it in the car easier i suppose"

[biostu]

Commentator says "he is crying?" WTF Fuck him.

[MrCalum1]

Unlucky, poor pilot. Commentator could have been a little less harsh!

[gmccord1970]

announcer: "that plane just broke in half."

No s**t Dick Tracy. 

He didn't have to rub it in the guys face.

[shreader327]

lol i feel bad for the pilot but my god the way the fuselage is bent you cant help but laugh.

[claytonjester]

stop downing the announcer, he didnt make the plane crash, did he? no. if the guy was more careful, he wouldnt have had an embarrasing time

[barnywal]

announcer is a knob!

[zyoungson]

haha that commentator is legend!! duide feel your pain but THATS WHY YOU FLY ELECRTIC

[claytonjester]

haha yeah, that is epic win. "hes crying" commentator WIN!

[bliglum]

Boy, everyone's thrashing the commentator.. Here I thought he was kind of funny!!

[rustygearz]

I want to know what happened, just finished watching your Somenzini Aircraft yak 54 Aerobatics video and that totally un expected.

Some type of engine problem? Or a bee sting you or something

[amediastintas]

engine quit its happened twice. once in a toc competition and another competitor let him borrow his aricraft and somenzini came in third that year

[tbar401]

dang thats a big glider....sucks to be pilot of that yak

[TOMMYPILOTINA]

hi hi hi hi hi!!!!!!

[ianhall99]

The commentator is still a tosser, most are at model shows, they talk a good flight....give them a tranny and they'd probably want to f**k him

[FrostbiteUK]

Engine cutting out was bad luck there.

[buderboi]

ouch, that had to suck!

[SPAMERWEAPON]

LOL Ohhhhhhh Nooooooooooooooo!! man I think he eat the mic.

[vanepico]

Bad thing about composite ARTFs like that is repairing them is a big no no because to get them as strong as they were before would require increasing the weight a staggering amount, they are reasonably cheap though!

[RM250D8rzr]

lol yeah we had BME 30% edge 540 and we had an engine failure after going strait into virtical climb then the motor quit and we tried to save it but it pancaked into the ground if we only had the extra 3 ft would have made all the difference. sad thing was the wings were fine and the tail plane had no damage but the front was ripped of and the pilot was found ten ft from the point of impact lol not joking, we declared him dead at the scene. one of the baffels can loose in the muffler, no airflow

[cabanestrut]

its not a composite model. traditional balsa and ply.

[vanepico]

Sorry, i was getting confused with the linguo, what i meant was that it is an incredibly light structure, effectively just strong enough as it needs to be to keep weight down

[Macsgrafs]

shit happens

[PC9JEFF]

That comentator is a total idiot!!! You don't say stupid things like that when a person crashes a $5000 dollar plane. If I were the pilot I would have beat the shit out of him in the stands!

[Gig540]

$5000 is a bit high. $1700-$2300 max maybe. For $650 he can be up in air with new plane. Or replace the fuse, good thing about ARF's

Sorry for your loss. Hate to see that. Horrible time for it to flame out, why couldnt it of done that while it was taxing out . lol

[RM250D8rzr]

lol i was giveing an example in canadian sorry dident think about the pound vs the dollar yeah your about right

[RM250D8rzr]

british humer u dont understand it lol as is with most north american people. he just trying to make it good along a littler bit better, its allways to joke about it instead of getting depressed. and yeah 5000 well the motor is fine the recever and probley most of the servos are fine and if anythink thats reparible. outher wise u can somtimes order a new tail assembly and if u cant do that well he just lost 1000 in an airfram.

[vanepico]

If any of the radio was damaged it would be the rudder servo!

[MBMotorsportRally]

If you are a model flyer.. you know all about that!! it happens !! part of the fun and excitement... and allows us to upgrade haha

[otinane222]

I hope they fired that commentator

[vanepico]

that sounds like dave bishop :) 'its british you know!'

[OMFGitzDannyP]

Yeah it is DB Sounds LoL

[fancyflier]

Lol DB Sounds is a legend, year after year at the BMFA Nats airshow line...

"Look at that, isn't that nice, you can get one from the nice people in the XYZ tent, British you know, isn't it lovely"

[OMFGitzDannyP]

lol

[sadkingbilly]

Sorry for the loss, really too bad. Sucks when that happens :(

Hope repair was possible.

The crowd wants to see some exciting flying, well ppl this is what happens sometimes. It's mechanics and electronics we rely on after all.

[young12flyer]

his wallet has just smacked him in the face

[JIMBOJON75]

wow..good landing! No,i mean sorry...

[gator966]

Hahaha Quique! lol

[murphy250350]

bet that hurt his wallet!!

[Chronoholix]

haha ''looks like hes crying''

[RCScubadiver]

looks like he lost power

[BR5499a]

Have always found announcers interesting. They tell you what you are going to see then tell you what you are seeing then tell you what you just saw. The announcer loves the sound his own voice and the crowd wishes he would shut up.

[MarceloCamargo]

RABADA!

[FlyBoyJJR]

nice tailslide! lol

[Harves77]

Hahaha. That commentator is a legend.

3D guys know the score. Aerobatics that close to the ground you expect to kill planes.

The only RC pilots who cry when they crash are the jet guys.

But like I was always told by older pilots at the club.....

If you can't afford to lose it, leave it at home.

[brettwrb]

Flys like the real yaks!

[XbeccabbyX]

i remeber thaa every1 in the crowd went silent..

haha DB is soo funny

he deffiantly makes the show wot is it

xx

[BoundForHell68]

Should have been running a DL50, they never flame out.......

[madeljacky]

Should have had a DA 50!!!

[apacpaco]

It was a DA 50 -_-

[whiskeyhotelpapa]

SHOULD'VE HAD A ZDZ!!!

[2007TypeR]

Not a major crash. New airframe is £300. You just gotta swap everything out and into the new one :)

[horizonflyer9]

too bad... it was a beautiful plane

[CptLoRes]

Airshow commentator = entertainer = funny comments = not an asshole, it's his job.

Lighten up it's just R/C no lives at stake, just money. Every time you take your big plane and fly hard ground level 3D. You know there is a good chance it will crash. If you can't afford to crash, just keep the plane higher up. And when you do crash, smile and take it like a man! :)

[TG5879]

@CptLoRes Can I borrow 20 bucks? It's "just money"

[nateflite]

"Well, it's definatly a lot shorter now... It will get in his car a lot easer... oh dear he's crying." what an ass lol

[Guinnie]

the announcer needs a boot in the ass

[madeljacky]

And mabey one in the balls to go with it!!!

[2007TypeR]

Thats Dave Bishop, he does commentary for like every RC event in the UK.

[madeljacky]

I know,ive heard him at Sandown before it quit,Woodvale and all the rest we go to. He is part of the show in some ways.

[pesterkester]

im not too found of yaks but sorry dude, i lost my plane in a field and it was totally destroyed once i found it.......btw it is fun to fly 3d, but sometimes it goes bad..thats why i stick with moderate stunt planes like the super sportster .60(super tigre rules!)

[skyrovers]

Dude ,I am just starting out with 3-d, and i have my first compotition 3 weeks away, and i JUST CRASHED MY AIRPLANE, That announcer is an ass!!, He should have some appreciatation, for the money, time and effort they put in to there air-craft to entertain the crowd, what an ASS!

[BryanDavison]

The engine quit...no motor...no thrust...plop.

[brettwrb]

Ouch damn, what happened?

[Picapacapopo]

That commentator is such an idiot. "Well, I guess it will fit in his car better..."

He's an idiot.

[ishallpass]

Shoulda had Safe auto lol

[rollemupind1]

lol, "he's crying"

[Yenzah]

hahaha, when i realised what the speaker just said started laughing, great one!

too bad with the plane!

[F3Aflyer]

You can always rely on Dave Bishop to give a nice commentry

[lucascmunoz]

acho q eh piloto ruim msm....hehuehuehuehueuhehueuhe­uheuhehuehuehuehuehueuhehuehue­hu

[ibanezguy1121]

LMAO "oh that is a lot shorter now". Id slap him if it was me.

[young3dflyer]

I think he needs a new fuselage

[hjlkfhyjdl]

what a asshole commentator

[AlexSlams]

Good old DB!

[johanbipbop]

@hjlkfhyjdl hes halarious!

[dhvozza]

don't worry,they make yellow duct tape

[R1Kyle]

OH no was the pilot hurt... That RC flying stuff is life or death for the guys at the controls.

[kochj0713]

ahhh busta nut

[RoC1909]

Jeez. The announcer is sure making prick comments!! What a ass!

[jorginhosport]

O motor é super tigre?

[MPCOUTO]

KKKKK

nada, é um DA 50, o cara ta zoando....

[corbystarlet]

there was nothing he could do, he didn't expect that to happen. all he needs his a new body, the wing and tail seem to be still fine.

[HoverLoW]

This video broken my heart. I have one 102". After this video, torque roll never more! :-)

[doctorgoodwrench]

Aww jeez. I feel your pain. Lost my 30% yak this weekend.

[MerkabaStar]

well at least you dont have to worry much about your electronics when you crash from six feet up.

[MerkabaStar]

oops, make that about twelve feet.

[RCDanny13]

lol i saw that. i was a good day.

lol you can get it in your car now.

[JC19903000]

lol i was there i rember that bit it just shortened lmao b loody was like glastonbry this year wasent it all that mud wow ally michinsky jet glider at the end check out my site ive got the video of it flying

[xjet]

Not low enough to bounce, not high enough to recover. Hovering in "the danger zone" has its risks. Bummer! Out of fuel or what?

[heyaheyaa]

'He'll get it in his car now!' haha lmao

[jantrit]

yeah thats the british whit for you,makes me feel sad to see such nice planes crash
