Wow. He lands better than I land in the cartoon 163.  :O

its a lot harder to fly a model than it is with the cartoon although I dont think so because I fly models and they call me a landing expert and I have a me-163 myself and its not that simple but the cartoon is alot harder

Bosco, did they give you a hat that says "Landing Expert?"

Do you have any landing tips for the non experts?

Any landing you walk away from is a good landing, that's what I hear anyway.

I fly RC planes (not the greatest mind you) and landing is verry nerve racking.  I startind in a 2 ch electric v-tail with elevons but am going to get a 3 ch electric cub soon.

my dad had a huge R/C tempest once upon a time, until he lost it in a bad thunder storm which sprung outta nowhere, winds hit 50-60 from almost nothing in under 5 mins. he tried to land quick and hurried in too slow, He nearly went into a vertical spin but before that gush of cross-wind wind took it into the ground.

:cry

i have to say, that is the best looking, best flying scale Komet i've seen anywhere. i was hoping it was rocket powered...  don't know if they even have model rocket engines that can run a model safely for that long...  but still very cool.

if your taking about mine then yes it does have a model rocket in it if your talking about the video well its jet powerd

Try putting a tube on the He162s fan, should concentrate thrust and make it look better.

first thing Heinkel did not make the 162 Messeshmit did and also that would not be to hard considering that that airplane is made out of fiber glass w3e wouldin't do that anyways we dont like eletrick or glow engines in our airplanes
Title: R/C models
Post by: Bosco123 on June 02, 2007, 01:13:16 PM
we like speed also that airplane was fast so. also if I were to put anything in my 163 it would a turbine :t

no the B-29 is not at all a good model for a firs timer also no i do nt think you can get a model 50 under to get it to fly a eletric motor itself is abou 75$ here is what you should get

your 163 is amazing Bosco.  a few questions, if i may...  how much does the model weigh? what rocket motor do you use?  is thrust variable?  how long of a run do you get out of each motor (im assuming its the solid fuel kind like in model rocketry)?  is the motor started electronically?  what top speed does it reach?  is it hard to fly?

At any rate they are awesome planes, I just have a Hobbyzone Aerobird Challenger.

firs I would like to apologize on the He-163. Gunther the ME-163 weighs about 23 pounds the biggest rocket i use is G-75 which produces 27 pounds of thrust for 7 second the motor is started elctronicly by a wire in the  rocket itself attaches to a little wire in the airplane when we want to fire it we have 2 saftey swiches one on the airplane which is an on of swich and the other is on the radio that also if the swich is on the airplane and you swich the reciver off then it fires. if there both on then and you hit the radio swich then it fires. I am only guessing on the top speed but i belive its about 150 max. the airplane is off a skid so when it takes off  it has no landing gear so it floats forever at idle. In other words the airplane is very hard to take off and land. you have to be perfect but it flies excellent

Anyone ever try the Giant Model Rc Tanks? Good fun, i got a 1/16 scale one that smokes engine exhaust, makes engine noise, and even fire a plastic bb i think about 30m's. Check this out

do yourself a favour........get outta that little 2 and 3 channel crap!!!!they're so hard to fly its amazing. go right to a nitro powered plane. if you can keep these little pieces of crap in the air, then go with a model by a company called "world models" you want the t-34 mentor. it doesn't look like one really, but it is rugged, and VERY easy to fly. it's supposed to be a .40 sized....but we all run the OS .50 SX two stroke in them. VERY fast and nimble. we like to fly formation with them too, as if we do suffer a mid0-air collision, it's not too much of a loss.

 seriously, you'll love it. i'm past them and flying P-51's, EXTRA 300's and SUKHOI's now......even a raptor helicopter, but STILL keep this t34 as its a quick flight and fun plane.

feel free to PM me if ya want any advice.....i'll help ya as much as i can.....my ingame id is: 1LTCAP

good luck!!

 any multi engine plane is a bad first plane. are you planning to stay electric?
 if so, check out hobby-lobby.com, and look at the alpha models. most are hand launched, but veruy nice flying. going to nitro would be better as slightly larget flys better....single engine that is
 under $50.00......ferget it..unless its used.
 like i mentioned in another post, if you awant to pm me, i can try to offer advice to help ya out.....ingame is 1LTCAP.

good luck,
john
