1. Why not make it like a Red Bul Air Race championship? Have a course, set categories, time it, see how well the pilot and the rc aircraft perform… I feel it will be much more interesting. Or is there already such a championship race?

2. JUNGS…ihr seid die Besten! Einfach nur traumhaft eure Modelle…M. E. die derzeit exklusivsten 2.WW Modelle hier in Europa/Deutschland…DANKE!
   Hoffe, dass eure "Schwester" im Silberkleid bald wieder aufersteht…

3. Trying not to tear up……:(

4. Ich durfte dieses Jahr den Sound der Galopping Ghost selbst erleben. WOW!

5. Wow:( the crash at the end was sad and unexpected:( pour guy, that thing was beautiful!

6. Frames at 18, 19 and 20 seconds show no indication of one flap down. I doubt that a "flap servo failed".

   I would guess pilot disorientation due to a silhouetted plane. Disorientation occurs when the pilot loses his or her accurate visual reference to the plane, in terms of its trajectory and which way up the plane is. When disoriented, the pilot does not know if the airplane is flying away from him, or towards him, is climbing or is descending. The airplane becomes a silhouette to the pilot, with no clear indication of it's exact situation in the sky.

7. that's a heart breaker

8. Wow i actually jumped out of my seat in shock! Such a gorgeous plane, I felt his pain.

   I wondered why he didn't feed in some elevator after it straightened up, he just maintained that decent, so sad

9. Ай яй яй……… Как жалко модель… Красавец самолет был…
   Очень больно! Как будто свой самолет разбил…
   Искренне вам сочувствую. 

10. I used to go to the Reno Air Races reminds me of those. Sorry for the crash. Keepem flyin.

11. Noooooo!, not Czech Mate 86. This is one of my favorite scale model planes on YouTube.

12. That heart dropped as fast as the plane did when I saw it hit the ground…….:(:(:(
    Good to hear mk2 has made it's maiden flight and all is well…..:):):)

13. Came across this awesome video again my dear friend and I just noticed that @ 3:40 when the Galloping Ghost pulled up that was the exact same thing that the real Galloping Ghost done at the Reno Air Race that killed a bunch of people. 😏

14. The last one died instantly ^^ !

15. My favorite of the three would be the one that crashes…figures… -_-

16. the galloping ghost needs less elevator when landing… he stuck it perfectly and kept holding the elevator… let it go! it'll bleed off the speed!

17. GOD THAT GOATS IS AWSOME!

18. "WTF happened"! I'm saying , ah so sorry she was such a sweet bird! thank-you for sharing. I get too emotional, best of luck going ahead, bird from Michigan, U.S.A.

19. Amazing planes. Where can they be seen this summer?

    I'd always watched the Superbolt and GG videos separately, in awe.. I never realized they'd flown together. Awesome!

    I want to see them live..

20. I hope one day I can get this good. ? And fly one like these.

21. If can you should go watch the real reno air races

22. That galloping ghost handles like the real thing. The last plane, the one that crashed was acting funny at take off. It seemed under powered and shaky. I don't understand why someone would go through all that effort just to build a plane like that out of balsa wood. Aluminium or carbon fiber or both is what I would use.

23. now i know what to do to finish off my top flight p 47 my own personal bolt coming up thanks for the ideas

24. from what i see, it's possible to make a special Class of rc pylon racing ( not for the faith of heart and not so small deep pockets) like sorta of unlimited class at 1/4 scale or bigger. with multi cylinder engines.

25. Turn it UP !!

26. I love this video you know how to race it hurts me when that other pilot losses airplane what a excellent air race

27. Sucks to see such beautyful planes crash…

28. Czech Mate is the most beautiful plane I've seen!

29. They ALL eventually crash. Every one of em…..

30. Ready set go!
