"World's Largest" RC Airplane (B-29)

I guess it could be the "world's largest" if you don't include the RPVs (E.g., Predator). Great B-29 model.

Re: "World's Largest" RC Airplane (B-29)

Quite a video, it looks very realistic (even though it doesn't SOUND realistic!). I wonder how much it cost to make?

My guess is that one guy is a backup--there to bail the other out of a jam... ?

Holy cow that thing is big. Where the Hell would you store it? I guess you'd have to rent it it's own hanger space?
 

Anything for a weird life.

Re: "World's Largest" RC Airplane (B-29)

I wonder why it couldn't use 4-bladed props.....It's really the only thing that detracts from it's appearance (although obviously you can't tell once the engines are started)

Could an RC'er enlighten me?
