That is some toy, most impressive.

Holy Frack!!

That is very impressive...

I am intrigued though.. do they have a camera mounted in the nose for lining up the runway for takeoff & landing or, for that matter.. knowing where the hell it is in flight?

I struggle with my little drone & it's only got a range of 100m tops & it has a camera.. & I still struggle... :rofl:

If not, how the hell do they make sure they lined up properly? Very expensive mistake if you mess it up I imagine...

Cheers

Hi Guys 'n' gals,
That's a great video of a very nicely constructed & flown RC model.
Only problem I see is that the original video was made with an old camcorder
that didn't have image stabilization.

"He" posted a link where he has updated his camcorder, hence the whole video is so much better, smoother to watch.

Went to a r/c boat club once. Asked a guy there "What got you into r/c boats?"

His answer "Flying a $12,000 aircraft into the ground".
