FULL ALUMINUM RC ZENAIR 750

27 Comments

1. Carlos Rangel also built an all metal Zenair 750 at Top Gun.

2. Its funny that its modeled after STOL, when made to scale out of metal its take-off distance is among the worst in that event.

   I wonder if a all metal scale version of a modern fighter jet would perform….Could it even achieve positive lift with any scale turbine…

3. How to build such type of planes? I wanna build rc planes in metal

4. nice flying dear

5. PRETTY LONG ROLL OUT BEFORE ROTATION ? S.T.O.L ? NOT REALLY THAT WAS SCALE 1300 FT ROLLOUT!

6. Looks just right but can tell that it's HEAVY,, the take off and landing roll were far longer than scale from the full size, would love to know how the weight and wing loading compares to the scale of the full size

7. Amazing that it flies at all!!! Metal is far heavier than balsa and covering. Great JOB!!!!

8. Hi, great model. What kind of radio are you using?

9. I Have a 30% all aluminum Scale Zenith 801.. Flies very well

10. Amazing video , keep up the great work ?

11. Great video. What is the weight of the aircraft?

12. A few years ago I built a mm perfect 42/50 850 Kv electric powered Zenair CH 701 1/5 th scale as a tribute to Scott Ehnie's turboprop CH 701. The model shown in the video is not to scale! The engine cowling is too long. The stabiliser does not have the inverted airfoil but a semi symmetrical profile and the door opening is not correct. The leading edge slats seem to be oversized and not fitted/positioned correctly as per original design and not to forget that the windscreen has too much rake. You get scale and semi-scale and I'm sorry to say the model featured is semi-scale. A nice effort but does not give me the wow factor. A pity I cannot post pictures of my Zenair CH 701 here.

13. I couldnt fly there..way too much noise.

14. Nice plane. Crowded airspace.

15. Very good

16. I like it. Aluminum ensures you will win any arguments in the air. Power to weight ratio doesn't seem ideal though.

17. Nice. Airplane ???? visit my channel thank

18. Love the Zenith STOL CH 701 and 750!

19. For those commenting about the lack of STOL capability in the model, keep in mind the difference in the Reynolds Numbers between this and the full size aircraft. A smaller wing needs to fly at a RELATIVELY faster speed (speed vs chord) to produce an equivalent effective lift.
    Then there is the trick of perspective. If you ever watch a 747 in flight and wonder how it stays airborne because it LOOKS like it is flying so SLOW. A model has the opposite problem. Models appear to fly faster because they cover many more times their length per second, even if the actual speed may be slower.

20. Beautiful plane! I also grew some appreciation for my private rc runway.

21. If flaperon was working would be STOL and awesome

22. ???????
    ????‍♂️???
    ???????

23. Great plane BUT: STOL it's not. Even with that extra lift slats, didn't see any flaps, and the aluminum wrap, took that plane way to long to get off the ground.

    I suspect the aluminum wrap is the culprit and lack of flaps.

24. How did you come up with that registration ? C-FBAL … cool.

25. Nicely done!

26. Thank you, nice video and really full metall!

27. Gee the real one gets off quicker? It amazes me people build these scale toy planes yet destroy the effect by having no driver in them??
