RC aircraft?

[Paul_D]

I stumbled across a modelling program on Disc H & L a while back where they were flying a huge RC F-15 with real jet engines. The thing sounded brilliant and was very fast. I dind't realise such things existed.

Peter Waller:

What was your first thought on RC Jim?

Reinforced Concrete is what RC allways refers to when you see it on building drawings.

They quite often show those jets on Sky TV. Mad

I'm into slope soarers and gliders, Got a couple of superlight crunchies, and some combat wings.

 

Love it!

Nice photo sequence from a link Peter Waller found Here.

Geez Newt, that model is bigger than most of the planes that go in and out of Cumbernauld Airfield....

I did have an RC Sopwith Camel, wich i built from scratch over two years with the help of a kit.

 

It fly very well until it had a minor collision with a telephone wire, which ended up with the undercart removed.

 

After an unsuccesful belly landing it was written-off, as I ripped all the fabric and ribs out of the bottom of the fuselage.

 

Great fun though, and brilliant for buzzing the cats.

Just make sure you dont fly too close to thyose power lines! (it wasnt me honest!)

Nasty that one. Is that smoke or feathers in the photo?
