A-10 TANK BUSTER RC JETS (360 PANORAMIC ONBOARD VIDEO) *You control the view !*
After a little...well maybe a lot...of arm twisting Mick Burrell was kind enough to let me mount my InstaOne 360 ONE Panoramic camcorder on his big Mibo A-10 Tank Buster! After flying solo for a few minutes Steve Johnson joined him in the air with his Skymaster A-10. Fast forward to about 6 minutes to see Steve's A-10 flying in formation with Mick.
This a panoramic 360 video. You control the view. If you are using a Desktop PC you can use the mouse to control the view. With a smart phone you can tilt the phone to move the view.
The Skymaster A-10 is 1:6.25 scale with length 2552 mm (101.3”) and wingspan 2784mm (109.6”). Dry weight is 20kg to 22kg (45-48Lbs) and the model needs 13-15 servos.
The Mibo A-10 is a generation 6 kit has electric retracts and brakes is 3m span and weighs 54lbs dry 66 at take off. The model is powered by two Kingtech 160G series2 turbines giving a total of 78lbs thrust from 7Ltrs of fuel which it burns in 8mins. The decelerons (the name for the split ailerons) were my own modification so in that respect the example is unique. My A10 is modelled on the USAF airshow demonstation aircraft which flys a known demo schedule an example of which can be found on YouTube "A10 RIAT 2011" so carries no armament or Penny Pod. The model is guided by Jeti DS24 radio uses a Centrebox 400 power distribution and 2 three cell LiPos it also runs 15 servos.
Filmed at Wings & Wheels Model Spectacular Show by Dom Mitchell for the 'Essential RC' YouTube channel using the Insta360 ONE Panoramic 360 camcorder.
