Will it fly? | 15-Foot C-130 Hercules Cargo Plane? 😱

In this adventure John Overstreet comes to visit with a partially built C-130 Hercules cargo plane. Made out of foamboard, carbon fiber tubes, aluminum tubes, plywood, and a ton of zip ties we aren't sure if this humungous remote-controlled airplane will fly! This is the first time we use four Monster Motors on a plane and lots of things could go wrong... including if we crash, it could do some serious damage.

You guys need to put a hundred mini parachute army men in the back and simulate a paratrooper drop.

[alabamaoffshorefishing]

The dude flying the drone has some serious skills.

[Trollsty]

As somebody that works on actual 130s, this was really cool to see. You guys made it look pretty accurate, and it flew really well. Kudos.

[SCUBA_Draconis]

19:36 ABSOLUTELY buttered the bread with that landing!!!! Probably the best RC landing I’ve ever seen seen

[soupfork]

That thing needs to drop an RC tank with 3 parachutes out the back that then drives off. Make it so.

[MckinleyDjents]

Third order shipped from FliteTest today! I am so loving building their kits! The hobby keeps me happy/relaxed when dealing with my anxiety. Thanks guys for being so awesome!

[eriklindbergs]

> "Dont ever ask for this to be kitted."


Wrong. I am asking. Make it so.

[nostealth]

It’d be really cool to see an AC-130 gunship with paintball/Airsoft guns and some other goodies with motors to turn and pull the triggers.

[thanatphatto]

Imagine converting this C-130 to an AC-130 that can do ground strikes with airsoft guns, would look awesome!

[errorCODEgoth]

Does anyone else agree that it's satisfying to watch the plane land so gracefully or is that just me?

[_ezra]

In the military the C130J is primarily used for jumping paratrooper. It would be so cool see little dudes coming out the back!!!

[ManImJustSomeDude]

Whether it’s a business decision or personal decisions, I appreciate the fact that there is never any foul mouth or terrible behavior from any of you in your vids. Way to be in this day and age.

[msgouf]

Would be awesome to launch out 50 army figures with parachutes. That would be a sight to see along with a tank or humvee!

[rAvensBBr]

Please make it into an A/C-130U Spooky with the same Airsoft tracers you used for the awesome A-10C vid you made!!!

[aadvaithmandampully]

When's the speed build kit coming?

[xllsd]

That landing was amazing, I repeated it several times. :) 19:35

[christophermedina]

I jumped out of the jerky bird too many times in the Army. I would love to see a scale 64 troop drop on an LZ! That would be awesome.

[chairmankaga]

Josh, that was the PERFECT landing. Just lightly kissed the strip and wings barely flexed. Nice job guys.👏👏👏😁

[jgplanes]

Wow! Watching that thing fly is amazing. It makes the quad look so small in formation. Congrats to all for an awesome build and flight. John, you are a true foam board master.

[rotomic]

just wait until they put a tiny verison of a thermo nuke in it and paint it into thomas the thermonuclear bomber
