SirRealPadroo-Yes I have and have to say I can crash them and get them stuck in trees with the best of the worst. Lol

I currently have 10 R/C helicopters. The first six were trainers ahem and now set on the shelf The other four have survived me and I finally am comfortable with them.
I flew them over a train/town layout that I built for the kids at our community Christmas party and am pleased to announce no child was harmed. Not a single crash the kids were amazed and so was I
I find flying R/C to be very thereputic especially now.
You really should try it. Bush Hog foam planes from Radio Shack are a great entry. They are very durable. From there the sky is the limit.
You worked on real planes-Very cool!
Thanks for stopping by, Jeff

SirRealCatfish- You are quite welcome. It is amazing how far they have come. The video display and the moving pilot in the Mig blew me away. Glad you enjoyed it!
padrooI don't know if I would ever have the coordination to fly a R/C airplane. I guess it is all about practice.

bjprowlerWatching this, it's hard to remember that there are still parts of the world where the primary source of transportation is a camel and people live in grass huts.......

Fascinating!

MDProwlerJust dont fly them in the garage with the Prowler!
EdsCatThat is incredible footage. I used to fly 'control line' planes back in mid-1950's. Stand in the middle and fly them in a circle. Limited things you could do with them, but still fun.

Radio controlled models were just arriving on the scene. Talk about limited control! Up/Down/Left/Right - by the number of pulses you sent. The planes just sometimes kept on going off into the distance.

I was always better at building them than flying them. Great video!
