Aerobird-3 crash. Avoiding mid air collizion with Boeing-737

[danbrine]

you was closer landing on the moon.. Ps get rid of the doggy hair cut . I bet you a quid you was sevrell miles away from it (the plane noy the cut)

[drtbutta]

gay - not close

[inkjets1]

If I were you, I would remove this video. You should not be flying in a controlled airspace, its dangerous and illegal. In Australia a RC pilot is being prosecuted under the civil aviation law for doing exactly the same thing. It came to the authorities notice after he posted his video on you tube. I think he is looking at a prison sentence now according to the news report. Only a thought.

[Guinnie]

this guy is right they sent the other dude to jail wake up

[airsoftguy7171]

in the us you can fly any were but not like military space and no gas planes in city limits

[KaldekBoch]

Actually they ended up not pressing charges against the guy in Australia.

[MrRedBarron]

good video. odds are, that you crashed the plane once or twice, resulting in a compromised wing from take off. These planes are alot of fun. i'd suggest fitting a carbon rod to the wing. That'll stiffen it up some.

[synthuser]

Wing folding is pretty common, especially with the added weight of a camera or other devices. Also, it's hard to determine an RC plane's altitude is without an altimeter (or height sensor for RC aircraft).

[austinpowers1977]

oh and even if u did nearly hit it y the fuck where u flying a model plane in a flight path of a airport!?!?! ur a fucking idiot!!!

[austinpowers1977]

lol yeah i saw the plane u nearly hit....NOT!!!!!

[Alup62893]

I'm sure you were farther than It seemed.

[totalanimelover89]

hey! theres no proof that you even got close to the boeing 737, "no one" can visibly see your rc plane when the wing collapses or before it does!!!! ha! probably total poop scratch!!! oh and real planes have gas/glow engines, and are made of wood, carbon fiber, fiberglass, or anything but a plastic and foam toy!!!!

[AKOUZMIT]

Read through all the comments.

I provided my explanation at some point :-)

[flightsimfreak123]

dude your a dipshit. u wasted your time with that video. mother f*** go suck your own dic*

[fishinp8nbllr3]

dude did u get that down that sucks srry that that happened that sucks i have 1 and it is really cool

[10YouGotTube10]

Hey i just got this plane!!

A) do you fly with the landing gear or without?

B) i was doing some wild loops and other stunts when my wing collapsed... has that ever happened to you or did i just buy the wrong one.

[idontknow421]

he crashed when he pulled a sharp manuver and the wing collapsed

[AKOUZMIT]

I am flying with landing gears as I am taking off from the ground.

In my case wings folded due to very high speed and sudden sharp turn.

Look like wings folding is common issue for this baby :-).

I have moved to Aerobird Extreame for now.

[TheXPortZone]

I always say a tree makes a softer landing than the dirt.

how much did the camera cost?

[marktimmer2212]

now thas a serious toy!

[gatorcounty]

Yhat's good, but music is awfull ! I'm sorry...

[jpitt57488]

a) What kind of video camera did you use?

b) Didn't it affect the CQ to have the camera in the nose like that?

[AKOUZMIT]

1) It is tiny "5-in-1" => Google it :-)

2) Camera weight is about 50g and it doesn't affect CG much. Taking in account that this bird was heavily upgraded I took care to keep CG ~33% from the leading edge of the wing.

3) Camer should be pointed 45 degree down for the best footage.

[jpitt57488]

Thanks for the reply...excellent footage by the way!

[jenpenalover]

♣ how many passengers died ??? ♣

♣ .lol. ♣

[Euphorica]

[dsmeagle1983]

you know...you could buy a new wing at the hobby store...or was the plane totalled

[dgg1994]

Amazing How Durable THose Hobbyzone pLanes Are

You Were What 150 200 Feet Up!

[oxdbxo]

Woah! What a terrifying near miss! That 737 was only about 1.5km away from your RC plane, it's very fortunate there wasn't a mid air collision sending a fireball raining down on the sleepy streets below

[chevyguyjoe]

whats the rubber band for on the areo bird

[AKOUZMIT]

Rubber bands are for main wing attachment to the fuselage.

[ChrisPCrunchy]

Were their any survivors?

[trl123x]

the 737 was no close to doing anything. its just the wake turbulance from the 737 that made ur plane dun

[BUSHISAVILLAGEIDIOT]

If someone was dumb enough to fly a rc in restricted air space they get a visit from the Feds informing you of your fine,and your prison term should you harm anyone. Treating others like idiots only makes you look stupid.

[nwpattesting]

The 737 was way higher than your toy - stop blagging us.

[maskedhedgehog]

hmmm ... is that a cricket pitch ?

[AKOUZMIT]

Footage from the ground was taken on the same time as onboard footage no foolishing. 737 was real and at the same time when I did sharp turn. It was a coincidence that my "bird" went down in a dead spiral at the same time as 737 was approaching Toronto airport. looking at the sequence of events I got an idea to come up with a story to make these events more intiguing ... :-). Thank you for enjoying my video clip. More to come soon.

[vega2614]

I don't see where the plane almost hits the 737.  All I see is a dot that I'm assuming is your plane, and there's a cut or jolt in the footage, and suddenly I see a 737. I doubt it was anywhere close. I wonder if the 737 pilot saw your plane.

The in-flight footage is definitely pretty sweet, as is the death spiral. It's nice to have ground footage, but you can't really see anything without zoom.

Please, go "rcuniverse" website.

There are all the answers for your questions and more.

[playntraffic]

Umm, to scale your plane would have to be the size of the 737's tail feathers. I think he was a tad bit higher than you.

[dnanban]

lovely video - thanks for posting!

[ale7730]

Nice vid, but was the rc really on the course of the 737, as it seems to be much lower? Anyway you toke the right choice, otherweise you could have end up posting a much more dramatic footage here :)

[AKOUZMIT]
