Re: Essential RC aero-modelling video thread (UltraHD and 4K

I haven't flown a nitro powered model in 20+ years. I had always wanted a Tiger Moth and one came out for sale so grabbed it. Powered by a Laser 100 which have a great reputation for reliability and it's British made.

Successful first flight and looking forward to getting it out again.

Re: Essential RC aero-modelling video thread (UltraHD and 4K

3rd in the Eachine 400mm Micro Warbird series is out. Preceeded by the P-51 Mustang and F4U Corsair. This flies just as well. I leave it in MIDD mode. EXPERT mode is too sensitive for most fingers...and contrary to what I say in the video you can pull loops and rolls in stabilised MIDD mode. BEGINNE...

X-Flight \ Supreme Hobby A320 twin 50mm EDF Airliner
Second fright after a few repairs, modifications and a more rearward CG. Missing and poor hardware and bad servos have made this already expensive kit a little more than challenging.

Another awesome machine from Adrian's hanger and flown in a suitably aggressive style.

A rare but fantastic sight of a seriously big F-14 powered by two Kingtech K210 gas turbine engines. Watch as it starts-up, takes off and demonstrates the swing wing mechanism.

Adrian flies his spectacular Roban HH-60 Jayhawk US Coast Guard Helicopter in breezy conditions and makes it look easy. A lot of custom detail added to this helicopter to make it look as authentic as possible in the air.

Re: Essential RC aero-modelling video thread (UltraHD and 4K

Our first flight with this big ready to fly Extra 330 from FMS. Even in the hands of an experienced 3D pilot it will take a few spins to get the best from it but our Trevor did good in the conditions.

Re: Essential RC aero-modelling video thread (UltraHD and 4K

After a delay finding a flying site we got my Freewing Avanti converted to a Kingtech K45 G3 turbine engine in the air. For a first flight it was even better than expected.

Chasing the FMS A-10 with a super quick and agile race drone carrying a GoPro HERO 7 Black. We got close. Very close.

Re: Essential RC aero-modelling video thread (UltraHD and 4K

Azza and Sonny are well known for their close formation aerobatics and this was another brilliant flying slot at the Cosford Large Model Association Show featuring their two Bill Hempel Clipped Wing Cubs. These radio controlled aircraft have a wing span of 18 feet (216 inches) and are designed for t...

Re: Essential RC aero-modelling video thread (UltraHD and 4K

Superb little P-51. Very quick assembly. The included flight stabilisation unit makes it fly like a much larger model. Very locked in feel while it is flying. Gives immediate confidence for low fast and slow passes and aerobatics. Super impressed.
