airbus rc plane


world largest rc plane

looks like fun... prices now are more affordable then when I was younger..

the big one (superfortress?) - looks like several people needed to fly it... :)

maybe a smaller one would be good for beginner like me.

Impressive videos, both of them. The first one is an Airbus A340 power by four jet engines. Scaled jet engines of course. Very expensive things. 10 years ago when they were first produced it costs RM20k per engine. Its probably cheaper now but still expensive, maybe around RM5k-8k. The A340 model in this video is particularly impressive because it had retractable flaps in addition to the retractable landing gears. I wonder how the modeller manage to figure out the flap folding mechanism.

The second video is a B29 Super Fortress, like Diablo pointed out. Looks like it was running on four piston engines most probably four stroke type but I can't be sure. It even had retractable landing gears just like the real thing. I saw a second operator in the video but not sure what his role was in flying the aircraft.
