That's awesome, man! That'll be a blast to fly. If you ever get it off the ground while you're in town let me know, I'd like to come watch.

Btw... we missed you in practice last week (and the week before that).

Don't worry about practice this weekend. The rec center is closed for the holiday, so we'll pick it back up on the 2nd.

So when are you going to crash it then? Nothings better than spending a year on a plane, investing tons of money and putting so much devotion into it just to see it smash into the dirt!

Yeah! Post some pics of twisted flaming wreckage! Make it look like a Die Hard film and you get the thumbs up. The thing needs to be in at least 10 pieces, with flames at least 3 feet high to be worth while. Can I suggest dousing it with petrol before take off? Or attaching gas filled balloons to the wings for extra "pop" on impact?

BLOW THE SUCKER UP!!!!

I dont have video of my first crash but god i wsih i did


The elevator hinges pulled out with the plane about 150+ feet off the ground..... straight nose dive at power(we were trying to get the wings to produce enough lift it would climb......didnt work). it BURIED the motor at least six inches past the firewall in the field were it hit.......

Hi Drizzt-san!

Wow, that plane is so major cool! I love planes. You just made me remember something from when I was little... The years between 5-8 or so. My Dad had these big planes(Like the size of yours) complete with engines and propellers and My Dad, big brother and I used to fly them in the park. They were on very long strings, but they could fly pretty high and I remember laughing when it would nose-dive and almost crash. We did crash them sometimes, and then he'd have to fix them. He even let me help fly them sometimes. The fun part was to get them going by starting the propellers. Wow, those days were fun... We still have them but have not flown them for years.

I wanna be a kid again and go fly them!

Yeah... Bummer you don't have that crash on video! I hope you enjoy your plane as much as I did my Dad's when I was little(Even though you are not little!)

Thanks Kaoru.


Those planes your talking about are called line control. I got a chance to fly one for the first time a while back with a man that was wworld cahmpion in 1946.....theyre as much fun in a lota ways as the big R/C's like this are .

I wanna see flames, and I wanna see the wings come of at height. Anything else just isn't cricket.

Cool plane, is it a generic plane model or is it a replica of something?

Forgot to answer the other question.


No this one is not scale. Scale planes tend not to fly nerarly as well, and im nto quite on the leel i feel confident with one. This plane is what im progressing out of my trainer with. Im going to put one hell of a hot rod motor on it, and get started into pylon racing. From there i may got to a scale plane like a gee bee or a modified warbird.
