I used to fly in a club where one of the old-timers would build a great exact scale model, then give it to one of us to fly. Occasionally, one would get wrecked. Bill would repair it without complaint, and return it to us to fly again.
For him, it was about building. His vision was only good enough to see the model on the ground or in a low fly-by.

That was cool. I saw a giant B17 that took 4 radios to fly several years ago. What a sight that was. The wing span must have been close to 10 or 12 feet. That was also something else. :applause:

Why am I getting this error:

"The file name, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect."

I'm getting the new window with this URL...

file:///private/var/tmp/folders.501/TemporaryItems/AOLTemp.html...

Another WMV window is opening to play the file...

But then I get that alert.

Here is a short video of an Airbus A340 some some modeler built from scratch a year or so ago. 4 engine ducted fan.

http://www.aviationexplorer.com/remote_control_rc_huge_airbus_a340_aircraft.htm

There wa sa building website that I cannot find but this thing is built entirely from scratch I believe using foam. Cool!

I build my RC airplanes from the $8 hobby shop throw gliders using 2 electric motors and micro servos. Then I can fly at the park behind my house whenever I want.

My friend and I almost killed a guy putting in the park while we were learning to fly an out-of-control Cox prebuilt top-winger.

These things are NOT easy to fly, and we wound up crashing as many as we later built.
