Marty_d Posted May 6, 2017 Share Posted May 6, 2017 Ok, this is just getting ridiculous. If you're going to build something that's over 50% of the original... why not just build a real one?! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dominicm Posted May 10, 2017 Author Share Posted May 10, 2017 Different kettle of fish. These guys genuinley prefer flying an RC plane from the ground rather than sit in the cockpit. Simple as that. Plus the rules and regs for building a full size aircraft have got to be quite a lot more complicated than what is required for a model. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
