I was Dollors but still $10,000 is alot

As well as being rich, I guess it helps if you live in a big country to find places to be able to fly craft that big ;-) Also can you imagine the red tape and certificates etc involved to fly those! Well neat though.

Could get yourself a second hand kit plane less than them.

Something like Zodiac CH 601... Someone at my brothers flying school bought one for about £25,000.

What's the point in building a model plane at 70% full size? Might as well go the whole hog and go for 100%. Lol.

I've seen Ali fly the other one at the Nats last year. Very impressive in the air, but you should have seen the size of the trailer needed to transport it!

Yeah, no probs, provided they were no more than 70% full size.

Lol! 70% of adult size so then it would be ok for a youngster to sit on eh?:)

[Holst]

I bet it would fly with Dan inside :)

That is completely mental, I wonder how big the largest RC heli is?

It was nice to see the guy with the second plane flying it low and a bit of knife edge as well, he must have alot of confidence in the airframe.
Some of the large plane vids the wings are moving all over the place and they look like they might snap off at any moment.
