Check out this AWESOME B-29 Superfortress Remote Control Aircraft

That is spectacular. Oh the things I could do with that, like strafe some of my most obnoxious neighbors for starters...
 
They should fly by the spectators and drop those little poppers on them.

I liked the X-1.
 
That was AWESOME. I'd love to be able to get into that hobby, but one expensive hobby (my charger) is already more then I can afford.
 
That guy is a good pilot...

I used to fly r/c but no longer have time...

I need to sell my planes and equipment some day...

Judas Priest. You'd have to have a special hauler just to get it to where you're going to play with it. That was insane cool though.

What kind of planes you got? I'm thinking of buying one of those cheapy beginner planes on ebay for like 80 bucks. Just to mess around with here at the house.

Any tips on how to fly them w/o completely destroying the plane (or anything else)?

I've got four left...

One is a Raven and it is 125 mph screamin' demon... the other one I have built is an easy flyer... I can't remember the model but is is easy to fly...

The other is an unbuilt US Aircore. They are easy flyers...

My last plane is known as a Zagi... They are electric powered and virtually indestructable. That would be a good one to start on...

I have many accessories and Futaba Digital Radios... and a Hi-Tec that goes with the Zagi...
 
Cool, TB. You got any links to info about zagi's I can check out?


"Indestructible" sounds like exactly what I'd need. :cool:
 
One time me and some friends were at a lake swimming when someone on the overlook started buzzing the crowd on the other side. He kept doing it to the dismay of everyone when all of a sudden, right above the lake,...you guessed it...the engine shut off for some reason and went striaght down. The crowd actually applauded. :p:

They are basically a flying wing made of high density foam...

People actually use them for dogfights by running into the other plane...

They are a rear-propelled glider. The electric engine is pretty powerful and you soar up into the air then cut the engine and glide around...

The charge lasts up to 25 minutes so you can fly for hours on one charge. The plastic canopy can break, but replacement parts are readily available...

Buy an extra battery pack and you are pretty much good for a day...

They are really alot of fun and you can fly them in residential areas as you don't take off and land. You throw them then turn on the engine and soar to a good gliding height...

It is a good way to learn as I have disintegrated planes I took a lot of time to build. The Zagi is pretty durable...
 
Thanks for the link, TB.

I checked out some of the vids and they do look FUN! Not overly expensive either.


I think I'm gonna get one. :bow:
 
Now we know how they really filmed, "The Right Stuff.":cool:
