15 meter version of ETA

I built my first rc plane when I was 10. Taught myself to fly it too, 'can't say the same for full scale.
I agree with the above post, Rc soaring is great fun.

am i the only one who would LOVE to do a cross country lead and follow in a two-seater, having the guy in the back fly the RC ETA with maybe like a first person camera in the cockpit for those times when you can't quite keep it in view?

Hmm - not sure that lead and follow flying would be easy. Assuming the wing area is approximately 1/4 of the the ETA's 18.61m2 then, with a weight of 40kg, the wing loading of the model must be somewhere around 8.6 kg/m2. There would be something of a speed mis-match
