Hey guys this is what we need to keep our hands warm while flying. No mitt to get in the way! Don't blame me if you keep humming the song today! :D

Da da da da....da da... oops you got me

well nice smooth landing but also nice big...huge runway:D


I guess they have a generator to power up those halogen lamps:confused:

[bob forest]

He is the guy, that won the Jet world Championship. That plane cost was 750 thousand dollars. their was a write up in Model Plane News about 5 months ago about it. He did all, no kit. Even the tires are 100% scale.

Thats the one Bob! I subscribe to their YouTube channel "RUSJET" and this was just posted. Amazing what one can build with that kind of coin. Would look better in a fly-by if it had a pilot.

Kevin look again...they hooked the lamp to the battery by his feet. The landing was amazing! I can't stop humming the stupid song...arrgh!

They have put together a detailed documentary on the development of this truly remarkable model.

very impressive plane, I like the scale take off and landing most jets I see take off too fast and steep

[dhamultun]

I really enjoyed the scale take off and landings also! Could watch them all day long. Here is part 2

BTW I wonder what parts are from Hobby King(did you catch it on his shirt?)

[bob forest]

750 thousand dollars was the cost of this project. It was in Model airplane news re the cost. Even the molds were made for the tires, as exactly as the real one. The instruments worked. unbelievable. He is one rich Russian.

[dhamultun]

I noticed the Hobby King ads and chuckled. I doubt any of the competitors were using HK. Smart move since many in the crowd are potential customers. These models are only to let us dream!

BTW there was rumors of a HK turbine that had fizzled out.

Who knows maybe one day....

[dhamultun]

Bob you've got that right, one rich Russian. Very skilled group with lots of passion for the hobby.

David, no show so far! Working on your jet?

[dhamultun]

Work has me traveling too much and when I can fly the weather is $&@!. I've got a big list of goodies to finish the jet. Planning on placing an order soon. Unfortunately even the low end jets are expensive.
