Will be a dis-service to Ayrton if no new topic is posted, him as an Aeromodellor  :bow: Ayrton

Saw the documentary by Asif & Manish tittled Senna (a must watch), though not brought out as such, career  switch from McLaren to Renault and the new car was a major contributory factor in Ayrton Death IMHO. His contribution to the field of aeromodelling was immense, esp in brazil. here are some shots Ayrton flying model heli

PS
Senna was 'Mode2''Thumb', or mode1?

I believe Senna was also an RC car enthusiast and so was Lewis Hamilton.
