No doubt. Best I've ever seen, but I haven't seen it all. I
can't imagine how you top that one. Maybe a matching KC-10.


I have seen on the web pictures of a one-fifth scale RC B-29 that were
pretty impressive. I think the following one is a bit smaller than that, but
still neat!

Any idea what happened ?


His return leg on the orbit was pretty hot, and the RC forum
was discussing the wind speed. No aileron on the low wing, with a very
steep bank, and not enough authority from the high wing's spoiler. It
was digging into a steeply banked downwindturn, and it looks like it
stalled and tucked the nose lower. Not enough height to pull it out.
