THOSE MODELS ARE AMAZING !

THINK OF THE HOURS AND SKILL IT TAKES TO BUILD SOMETHING LIKE THAT .

Tim,

I have not seen this one....those hardly qualify as models anymore...almost fit in the UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) category. I have a video on my home computer of a fellow, in UK I think, that built a B-52G with jet engines. When it taxis it sounds like the real item on video, and in the air, with nothing else to in view to aid in the size estimation, it looks like the real thing.

I love that video. Makes me want to take my RC Piper Cub out of the closet and go for a flight! The amount of time and talent needed to build something of that scale is awesome.

Earl, here is an awesome large scale Boeing B-52 model. Unfortunately the flight was unsuccessful.

David,

That is the one...somewhere I have a video saved of an earlier flight that equaled one good takeoff and one landing. That was an expensive flight!!

tremendous effort and skill there. For not a lot more time they could have built this. http://www.vansaircraft.com/public/rv-12int.htm

Jack,

There are a few neat designs in the new LSA category.
