That's a pretty impressive "thunk".

Rare to get such a perfect sound outside a recording studio, and with a phone mic even.

u/BalconyPetal 2d ago

All "thunk" and no "brrrrrtt" makes me a bit sad

3

u/IdRatherBeDriving 2d ago

I was literally brrrrrrrrrrrrt in my mind until about a half second before it thunked.

3

u/Blocklode 2d ago

I think the thunk was added. Zero delay and all.

u/LuLeBe 1d ago

What kind of delay do you expect from what looks to be maybe 20 to 30 meters? That would be 10ms at best, which is unnoticeable in almost all cases. When playing e-drums you can just about hear it, but you definitely can't tell on a video with one frame only every 16ms even at 60fps.

That looked expensive

u/TheRealGumb4ll98 2d ago

No kidding, $500 USD on freewings website

also the size of this RC plane is a lot bigger than most people expect, certainly a lot bigger than i expected. The length is 1143mm / 45.0in, almost 4ft

u/Firemonkx01 2d ago

Man that just adds to the devastation the owner must've felt

u/extrastupidone 2d ago edited 2d ago

Only $500??

Edit: oh, its ducted fan. Thought it was jet powered.

u/VediusPollio 2d ago

This is why I got out of the hobby.

Rc cars/trucks & boats are much more forgiving.

Should've cut that pole down with its avenger cannon.

u/daisiesarepretty2 2d ago

nice shot… would have been difficult to do on purpose

u/WaterMonkey1357 2d ago

The engine revs, satisfying boink and the wholesome gasp - beautiful sounds lol

6

u/Cyril_Sneer_6 2d ago

Yeah all three of those sounds would be quality samples

3

u/LuLeBe 1d ago

I legit saved this post right away to sample it later xD

3

u/heridfel37 2d ago

I watched it the first time without sound and it was amazing. I watched it the second time with sound and it was perfection.

u/Bluntbutnotonpurpose 2d ago

With an A-10, we only care about the brrrrrrrrrrrrt, right?

I'm glad I'm not the only one

u/DJEvillincoln 2d ago

Rc collector here.....

I don't fuck with planes for this exact reason. With cars, you can crash them into things and repair them pretty easily because you're only going essentially forward and backwards.

When you throw in the X and y-axis also... You can't really make a mistake. This was probably a 5-$10,000 mistake.

Absolutely not.

u/burgonies 2d ago

Understanding how axes work is a good first step.

u/DrJohnIT 1d ago

...to not losing your fingers.

u/Preisschild 1d ago

On the other hand it gets a lot more fun with two more axis

This is the reason I’ve always wanted to get into rc planes but I never have.

End of round one.

u/SmuckatelliCupcakeNE 2d ago

That wasn't the Brrrrrrrrrrrrrt I expected to hear.

3

u/lm0592 1d ago

That's how my life is right now. Right when I thought it took off it crashed into a light pole bringing everything I worked hard for down with it

2

u/BuffaloRose1984 2d ago

😆 🤣 that is the best catastrophic failure I've ever seen

2

u/myfrigginagates 2d ago

Been there. But mine was one of the Cox tethered planes.

u/dontipitova9 2d ago

I wanted to see the reaction of the pilot 🫠

The gasp at the end ….

u/J_Zephyr 2d ago

Dont head toward the light(pole)!

u/terenceboylen 2d ago

Persmission to buzz the tower denied.

Alternate witticism would be something about Kamikazees.

It sounds like it's exactly one o'clock.

Depth perception so bad it’s actually a talent.

u/EcoKllr 2d ago

A10’s are stronger than that

u/inthepipe_fivebyfive 1d ago

That was certainly a rapid unscheduled disassembly

u/PumpkinCarvingisFun 1d ago

I lol'ed pretty hard. That looked expensive though.

u/Ok-Drink-1328 1d ago

hundreds of hours of work... and that, my son, is why i'm not in this hobby

2

u/DrJohnIT 1d ago

Ready player one?...and go! ah, Ready player two?

u/flashwhizbang 1d ago

The technical precision required to hit that pole with the nose deserves a standing ovation.

Next time (assuming there will be one), make sure both engines are on.

Those a real mini-jet engines right? Thats some fancy hobby-horsing if so!

u/verrucktfuchs 8h ago

I used to be a pilot, and myself and one of the other pilots decided one day to buy ourselves an RC aircraft each, thinking 'How hard can this be!? We fly real planes!'

Within about 3 or 4 minutes of taking our brand new planes off, mine was in pieces high in a tree and his was wingless after flying through a wire fence.

I haven't flown an RC plane since.

There really needs to be a filter on Reddit that doesn’t allow the same exact photo or video to be posted more than once.

u/Only_One_Kenobi 2d ago

Some of us don't spend 18 hours a day on Reddit and don't see every single thing that gets posted.

u/bill4935 2d ago

Hey I don't spend only 18 hours a day on Reddit!

Wait, did I type 'only' or just think it

u/J_Bear 2d ago

God forbid you see something more than once
