Really beautiful, so great to see a rubber powered free flight model flying in a way that I never imagined was possible! Thank you for posting this.

Such a beautiful structure - I love those build sequences. That final launch and smooth climb out was wonderful to watch. Thanks for sharing these moments.

No oiled fuels , No smells , On fussing or cussing . No noise . Peaceful flight in the blue marble-lade sky . I fly above the birds of pray . Looking down I sea green . Just beautiful flight

Last flight of the the was absolutely beautiful

I built a peanut Gillows plane once during college. Never flew it, just wanted to build it. Got into RC Glow and Electric Planes and Gliders. Your Goodyear Racer reminds me of flying Sailplanes on a calm summer day. So Peaceful and Realizing.

Absolutely beautiful. These sliced rib wings are so economical on weight.. All that longitudinal strength from the big spars is great.. I mean, you can repair a rib or two if needs be, but it's good to have overall structural integrity.. At least, that's how Anthony Fokker looked at it, and HE knew a thing or two about planes.. Lovely film. 👍

Beautiful. "Where did they land?" "Way, way yonda'!"

Love the camera work and the gentle narration along with the beautiful music. Stellar. Simply stellar

Thank you, best 12 mins of my day

@@maxfliart love your builds & comitment to scale rubber...must be a fanastic club atmosphere...RE your little racers...have you tried paper mache with tissue & wallpaper starch...we used to make cowlings with it, very light & stiff even just 2 or 3 layers...for rounded cowl cheeks on the racers...we used to use wall paper past for frame covering too pulls tissue drum tight & lighter than thinned pva as well as easier to repair too...few more tips from our 60s days

A testament of perseverance! Another successful outing, from the modern master of free flight. Bravo!

The build, the finishing, the trim flights all culminating on the two magnificent final flights on a beautiful sky. Your work never ceases to impres and make people happy! 😊

No one is harmed, so I think the magic is not black. By the holy tree, I suspect there is love, commitment and pride afoot! Those tiny gems behaving so fantastic is almost unbelievable. Thank you for sharing this.

The landscape portrait at 8:19 is as magnificent as your model construction and and flying skills are. Selecting the composition is as difficult. Bravo!

Flying very well this small scale models 👍👍👍😊 - And BEAUTIFUL built too! ❤

That's what it's all about, peace and senerity! Beautiful!

One day Hollywood will make movie of about Tom. It will be called "Flight powered by dreams" you are a legend.

The small one was anxious to fly! Beautiful models, beautiful flight!

Ugh! I just cant...with how dialed the cg and the thrust lines are. Absolute legend. Your videos make missing my planes a lot more bearable.

Man... both of those fly like they know exactly what they're doing, very nice. Thanks for sharing.

Watching your videos always puts a smile on my face and it is a calm port in a stormy world

Delicate, calming, serene, pure joy.... splendid. As always, thank you for sharing. Steve

wow, that was just magnificent !

Thanks again! Such a wonderful watch 😁

I can only dream of flights as beautiful.

Absolutely lovely. Thanks for these videos. So much good mental healing watching this.

Wonderful card, thank you for helping me through the year!

I remember watching your 13 " one some time back this 27" version is just as good. Fascinating stuff.

Amazing. Well done

this made my day... thanks!

Superb flying!Congratulations!Stay safe and Hello from France.

Those old "Cleveland Air Races" Golden Age racers were always good model material: Shoestring, Cosmic Wind, Buster, ... well, not so much the GeeBee .. ha ha. Beautiful flights. Your 'museum quality' builds & peaceful flights are always great to see. Cheers.

Of all your airplanes I have had the pleasure to see . This one's has a great landing capacity,and to the unknowing eye it seems very stable.

😊nice turn count..!🤙

Beautiful airplane... I love the blue color and overall unique design...

So nice And Amazing...

Perfect..the whole thing.

Again great building, great video, s any time ya in Ireland give us a shout!

Oh My God, the scene at 8:16!!

What a great finishing job, I ask, how to prepare the paper so that the color is uniform and does not wrinkle with moisture and the letters are clear and very well marked. Best regards and congratulations.

Great video as always. I know there are many inkjet printers that would work for printing on tissue but I'm curious about your hardware and process. Can you share some of this?

I love your channel. How many planes are in your hangar? And I would love to see them altogether.

Again a magnificient build! do you add the weight in the nosecone/spinner or in the front part of the fuselage. I can imagine that weight in the spinner affects the rotation. How do you cope with this in small planes?

where can I get plans for this wonderful plane model?

@@maxfliart Thankyou for that. Just to clarify the switch you have shown is it a miniature egg timer or a spring type of affair with some friction washers and presumably tensioned by the arm from the switch?. Thankyou for your efforts very enjoyable really liked the Spitfire/Seafire trim video.

@@chrisbailey459 Not sure where you're going with the egg timer reference, but the button or badge timers are apparently made with a viscous material (silly putty perhaps?) which naturally slows the rotation. Then I use springs made of .009 or .010" dia. wire to create the pull. Glad u enjoyed the Seafire. I've never been so happy to see a ship come into form, since the previous sessions were frustrating.

@@robertrussellmd This was simply a quick field fix. Since there was a bit of wiggle in the block, I went old school and used a shim of thin balsa. I can note the angle and dial it in on the plate back in the hangar.

@@maxfliart Thank you for the reply. I learn a lot from your videos. I used many viewings of your step by step construction videos to learn how to make a Rees sliced/laminated rib wing. My first attempt is below. photos.app.goo.gl/dgH7GNHD1oVTQnkP9

the odd aspect ratio of the wing makes it a bit unstable.

9:23, "uses 250 forward braids." What does that mean? Thank you.

@maxfliart

It refers to the method of preparing the motor, so that when it unwinds, it maintains tension, so that the CG does not shift throughout the flight. My motor for the Snoke is ultimately two loops of .187" x 40". It starts out as one loop 80" long. Before I fold it over into two loops, I wind in 250 forward turns, then fold it over and attach the ends with a small dental rubberband. There's your braided motor, ready to be installed. The number of braids can vary from model to model. When the motor is fully unwound, you want it to sag slightly, but without touching the bottom of the fuselage. If you have too many braids, you will know since the prop will not freewheel, because of too much tension.

either turn down the music or turn up your voice,,, other than that,, your vids are great!!!!!!!

oily smelly lovely

I disagree... The second flight was nearly perfect. All it needs is more power.
