Section 462 - Model Aero
Chapter 462 - Aviation Model
"Well, okay, I..." raised the microphone in his hand. As the guest of France Satellite TV 4 this time, Martin de Polignac cleared his throat and just spoke a few words.
As soon as the words came out, an F-22 fighter jet flew past him and the host in the sky with a roaring sound, only more than ten meters above the ground.
The roar of the turbojet engine completely drowned out the voice of guest Madan de Polignac, and the sound transmitted from the live microphone to the TV was all roaring.
"Uh, okay, as we can see, this is just an aviation model, only one-tenth the size of a real fighter jet. The 'Raptor' can't fly at such a low altitude." A rather helpless Madan Depolini
Mr. Yake watched the scaled-down F-22 "Raptor" fighter jet model fly away proudly across the ocean, and he had no choice but to start over.
Many viewers in front of the TV were startled by the sudden appearance of the F-22 model aircraft, but upon hearing the helpless thoughts of the guests, many people showed knowing smiles.
Following the gestures of the guests, the cameras on the scene turned to the eight pillars, and several aircraft models took off again in the low altitude. After zooming in several times, the camera quickly captured not only the model aircraft imitating the F-22 "Raptor", but also the imitation Su-27.
There are "Flankers" that imitate the EF-2000 "Typhoon" fighter jets, there are imitations of the F-16 "Fighting Falcon", there are also aircraft models that imitate the F-117 stealth bomber, and some are propeller-type P-51 "Mustangs"
, Zero, and "Toucan", and even a huge Boeing 747 model aircraft are mixed in among them. The huge body even makes people think that maybe a person can sit on it.
The enthusiasm of model aircraft enthusiasts is almost unparalleled and there is no limit to their imagination.
No one could have imagined that the J-10 would one day fly at par with the F-117. Of course, a real fighter jet cannot be realized, but through another form, this impossible thing has been recognized by those senior enthusiast-level aircraft model enthusiasts.
It was realized.
The noise of the micro-jet engines used in model aircraft is not inferior at all because of its small size. The sky is filled with the unique roar of jet engines and the buzzing noise of propeller blades.
"To get back to the subject, some of these aircraft models are produced by specialized manufacturers, and more are built by model aircraft players. Building your own fighter aircraft model is not a joke. Don't underestimate the creativity of real aircraft model enthusiasts.
Wisdom, relying on their use of civilian materials and crude tools available on the market for processing,"
"These are completely shrunken aircraft, and the power engine structure used is actually not much different from a real fighter jet. The engine part is mostly based on the FD3-64 model aircraft turbojet engine invented by British engineer Kurt Schreckling.
Many are hand-made using stainless steel to process turbines, compressor impellers and high-speed bearings. For specific manufacturing methods, please refer to "Gas Turbine Engine for Model Aircraft (Model Aircraft Turbojet Engine)" written by Kurt Schreckling, which can be downloaded from 19 Astronomy

Sure enough, he is worthy of being called an aviation enthusiast by the host. He can be invited to do on-site guest commentary. When it comes to professional knowledge, he talks endlessly, which makes people dazzled.
However, the host is not selling out. Today they are here for on-site interviews to warm up for the aerospace exhibition the day after tomorrow, rather than giving professional lectures here. After all, as a French private television channel, it still relies on popularity and paid users to make money.
Have a meal.
If all the guests are allowed to finish speaking, I, as the host, should give up my seat.
The host took the opportunity to interject while Martin Depolnyak was taking a breather, quietly gesturing to the cameraman to turn the camera on him, and facing the camera with a professional smile on his face, he said:
"Thank you Mr. Depolgnak for your professional explanation for us. Let's take a look at the live flight show. This is a small preview of the opening of the exhibition the day after tomorrow. I believe many viewers can't wait. Cameraman, you
Can these little things be tracked?"
The host called these miniature fighter jets little things, which was quite childlike.
"No problem, Gil!" The audience in front of the TV saw the mirror shake slightly, and a strange man's voice came in, which should be the cameraman.
"Okay, let's see the masterpieces of these aviation enthusiasts."
Following the voice of host Gilles Lebre, the camera pointed at the drama that officially entered the program. As the screen changed, guest Martin Depolgnak, who had been prompted by the host, added his concise comments in a timely manner.
, perfectly matches the content captured by the lens.
"Let me take a look. This time it is a model of the J-10. It is a third-generation semi-fighter made in China. It has a statically unstable design and has extremely strong climbing performance. It is good at high-altitude interceptions. It is very flexible. Wow, the workmanship is really fine. It flies
The posture is agile and free, and the remote controller is definitely a veteran in the field of model aircraft players, and the operating level is comparable to that of a real pilot..."
"...a giant slalom, and then it should be a Hoover swing around these eight pillars, or a snake maneuver. Well, it looks quite similar. Gil, these remote control aircraft
Among the players, some may even be military personnel. As far as I know, many of the military's drone operators are selected from senior model aircraft players. They are quite talented, not even as good as real fighter pilots.
No matter how inferior they are, what limits them is just unqualified physique, inability to adapt to overload and lack of stable psychological quality..."
"...It's really beautiful, a perfect snake-like maneuver, swaying left and right ten times in a row, like a flexible swallow. The S-shaped flight path just sandwiched these eight tall pillars without touching them at all.
Let’s look at the next one. Oh, it’s the American F-22. It has twin engines. After all, it’s a model. It’s a bit heavy and not as flexible as a real fighter. Well, it’s also very good. I’ve also bypassed it and adopted
Go around sideways and the angle of inclination is very large."
"Excuse me for a moment, Mr. de Polignac, I have a question for you."
"Jill, tell me."
"I would like to ask, it seems that those remote control operators control their own aircraft to go around these pillars very easily. Is it easy to control these aircraft? Seeing their wonderful performance, I was a little moved. I really want to go back and buy it myself.
Make one or make one, and take it out to play with my son."
"Oh no, Jill, it's not that simple. The difficulty of remote control of a model aircraft is actually not much different from that of controlling a real aircraft. This requires training, a lot of training, and a certain talent for spatial awareness.
Only with these factors can the aircraft be perfectly controlled to make a smooth and beautiful flight trajectory, otherwise it will definitely crash. Even though these experienced players can control these aircraft to fly so beautifully, everyone has crashed at least once.
The record was completely scrapped, and that kind of blow is really, really beyond words to describe.”
"Well, thank you, Mr. Depolignac, it seems that remote control of these aviation models is not that simple, so I would like to remind everyone that if you also buy or make such models yourself, it is best
Seek professional guidance to avoid injuring yourself or others, or damaging public facilities."
"Yeah, yeah! That's right, Jill! You are really a responsible host."
"Thank you. I also want to ask, if these eight pillars are placed here, since the aviation model can fly around them, can a real airplane fly around them like these aviation models?"
"This is a good question. From a visual inspection, the distance between these eight pillars should be 60 meters. I am afraid that only propeller-piston aircraft with a speed of less than 400 kilometers per hour can barely fly by. The danger is also very high. After all, there are eight pillars.
, there must be no mistakes in every step of the operation. Because the jet fighter is too heavy and too flexible, it is difficult to make such delicate maneuvers, especially the body length. There are only three or four body lengths between the two pillars. That is simply impossible.
, there is a plane coming over, a real fighter, that is..."
"My assistant just told me that Russian fighter jets came over. Oh, the real fighter jets are Russia's Sukhoi Grigory Squadron. There are seven of them, all Su-27s. Look at that.
They showed up."
"That's right, Gil, your information is really well-informed. The Flanker is Russia's most classic main fighter after the Fish Nest. It has a high reputation in the world. I have also seen them. They are oblique ones.
The word formation does not enter supersonic speed, it is subsonic flight. Well, I saw those aviation models also starting to land. At low altitudes, especially when real aircraft are coming, these smaller model aircraft can easily appear.
Accidents are as dangerous as flying birds. They must temporarily retreat and rest. There should be many planes from other countries turning over today, let us wait and see."
"It's coming, it's coming! It's so beautiful! It must be very powerful in combat."
"Yes, I see many tourists waving to the sky. Maybe those seven 'Flankers' will drop some candies or something and bomb them with candies. This is a great idea. I am a pacifist."
"Haha, Mr. de Polignac, you are really funny."
At this time, the sky above Le Bourget Airport was filled with deafening roars, and the noise from the engines of the seven fighter jets should not be underestimated.
Living up to the shouts of waving tourists, the Su-27 fleet even changed their formation, that is, the diagonal one-line formation became a herringbone formation, as if what was flying in the sky was not fighter jets, but a group of people returning from the south.
Wild geese.
