Giant RC plane Crashes

RC plane Crashes Compilation

My thoughts are with the tiny families of the tiny souls lost in those crashes. 🙏

That was sad to see the entire Brazilian Airforce disintegrate like that.

All I hear in my head is:


"Bank Angle. Bank Angle. WHOOP WHOOP TERRAIN TERRAIN!!! PULL UP WHOOP WHOOP"

[dbz]

I can't imagine all the tiny paperwork they had to go through after these crashes

[jbmopar]

So are there like big RC firetrucks that they can send out to a crash? 🤔😂

the second plane shows very impressively that scaling up a plane is not just scaling up the parts. there is a limit to model making and a hard transition to proper plane building.

Fantastic entertainment, and a terrible loss :) Thanks!

Imagine stalling two Concords within seconds

It even crashed realistically.

[meltdown]

That Gripen crash is especially sad as it not only destroyed a beautiful aircraft but also shows that the builder massively underestimated the forces acting on such a large aircraft and built it like many smaller scale planes - out of wood... which is not an issue by itself (see the DH Mosquito), but this thing seemed to be far to fragile to be even airworthy. The fact that the fuselage disintegrated like that shows that this perfectly. And it seems to be made of sections for easier transport, creating even more weak spots.

Man, I had no idea RC planes got that big. That is crazy.

[Teeheehee]

Imagine people really far away not realising it's an RC plane and just thought they saw a commercial airline crash in front of their own eyes

[pbdye]

These do illustrate how and why airliners aren't meant to bank in turns more than about 35 degrees max. There's no lift surface when they do, so they drop like rocks.

*CAUSE OF ALL CRASHES*

0:00 Pilot Error
0:46 Too much stress on vertical stabiliser
1:32 Pilot Error
1:56 Stall

[neovo]

Number 1: Stall during turn
Number 2: Structural Failure of vertical stabiliser followed by complete mid air breakup
Number 3: Stall of port wing during turn
Number 4: Stall potentially due to low airspeed and high AoA but possibly made worse by wash from aircraft in front
Number 5: Pilot distracted by no.4 also stall (note the left rolled just before the final right roll)

“oh you thought it was fine not to put your tray table up look what’s gonna happen now!”

[CYER]

1:14 how that can really make you appreciate just how well built real fighter jets are. The fact that they can handle so many g's without tearing apart like that is pretty amazing.

[jonnymashy]

the Concorde one was actually quite realistic
Edit: thank yall for the likes

[sockpuppet]

Vanoss and lui were driving that one commercial plane

[leonhardeuler]

1:11 They learned a hard lesson that day. Not to make a high end RC jet engine out of confetti. 😭
