Title: Giant XXL PIPER J-3 CUB radio controlled American light aircraft
Post by: DominicM on November 25, 2017, 03:07:58 AM
1:3 scale Piper J-3 Cub flown at the Large Model Association Show at RAF Cosford. Scratch built and without the context of the owner in the background you would think it was the real full size aircraft. Amazing.

Very nice Dominic!  :thumbsup:

Some years ago in the Aamby Valley meet (in India, near Mumbai) we had a 1/2 scale cub.  Wasi Ansari hovered it  :D. Twice  :rofl:

At 7:00 for over a minute there is a beautiful Falcon Executive Jet.

In a great tragedy, in a later sortie, it had a flame-out shortly after take-off, and.......... :'(
