BEST COMPILATION of BAD (and CRASH) RC LANDINGS #5

BEST COMPILATION of BAD (and CRASH) RC LANDINGS #5

If you fly RC a lot it's inevitable. Even the best pilots have a bad day once in a while. Could be your engine cuts mid-flight, or your retractable landing gear won't deploy or a gust of wind catches you out. These are skilled pilots. They just had a bad day at the office.

Filmed at various RC shows around the UK by Dom Mitchell using the Panasonic AG-UX180 Pro 4K camcorder.

I have no idea how the first landing was “bad” from someone that is new to rc airplanes, that looked smooth to me

Alternative title: most clickbait compilation of mostly normal rc landings.

It's truly amazing to see the evolution of R/C over the years. My first R/C model was a Trixter Beam powered by an OK Cub .14 glow plug engine. The radio unit was a single channel Berkeley Super Aerotrol with a wound-up rubber band to turn the escapement. Push the button once and the rudder went to one side. Let off and it returned to neutral. Next push was to the other side. Rudder only! This was around 1950. Soon, all the control line guys started building R/C models. I might be the only one of our model group left. Fond memories.

8:37 when RC planes start getting that big, I would just make a real plane to fly

I built a few RC planes in the 60s. That was so fun building them and planning. It was heartbreaking when they crashed after two flights each. All the time and work. I still enjoy watching the videos. Thank you!

No pilots were injured in the making of this video!😁

[RCHeliJet]

That hurts, the fire of the F-16 cannot extinguish and the end is a piece of coal. Thanks for this Compilation.

2:10 someone needs to let this guy know that the Stig can't fly. He can only drive!

[andrewnyr]

I just gotta say it’s heartbreaking when the plane gets destroyed. These people put their time, money, soul, and tears into these projects. I have mad respect for them.

[sanpol]

00:20 WOW, really good. That landing gear extension seemed to take hours to lock down. 😀😀😀

[believerofgod]

2:16 idk but why is this so funny ? xD

[drewlovelyhell]

6:29 This is a good example of why you should gain some speed and altitude before beginning your aerobatic routine.

1:56 Tonight on top gear: The stig fly's a helicopter!
Hammond crashes a car
And James wears a hat

[tucann]

I love how it seems like it’s all in the same place

[leokimvideo]

Considering the wind noise you can hear on the camera, it seems high winds were a huge factor in many crashed here

[littlepastelkitten]

3:01 at least the aircraft is in one piece

[grengeg]

4:20 Guy with the fire extinguisher just stands there.

[isabuckles]

2:26 - The disappointment on the Stig's face is truly palpable.

[billwilliams]

Always boggles my mind when you see RC models that are big enough to actually fly in 😅

[tomo]

I know some people spend a lot of money on these but it’s so satisfying to watch them blow up or get destroyed hahhaa
