Sorry about the two previous bogus posts, it's monday I couldn't find my glasses, and when I did find the dam things it was by stepping on them, so now I'm covering my left eye because I knocked out the left lens, it's going to be a long day. Why do I need glasses in the first place? because I'm old.

Wow that is SO COOL!!!

Not

An easy thing to do, kind of gives a new meaning to the term "model airplane" would one of you computer geniuses tell me how to delete a post please. I want to know how much they have invested in that thing, and how many times they crashed it, before they figured out how to make it work. A race car buddy of mine shot that video, I got it yesterday, I want one.

Salty,
I think the Dawg is the ony one that can delete stuff but as I'm sure you will attest I'm no genius,

You're probably right, but a while back when I made another screw up I'm pretty sure I did delete one, I think.

Wow, I could see starting that B-29 going very wrong! Many one handed RF pilots out there?

Awesome work shown there!

Dang!!!

I was just talking to my computer - "No way they fly the X-1 out from under that beast - it's gotta be just for looks."

Then it went - "Jeezum - they both fly".

And then I caught myself yelling at the computer - "Oh cra*, don't crash!!!"

Always thought RC flying planes were cool, but never wanted to find out how much of an investment they really are (ie: I always break stuff).

Very cool...

Sweet. The FIL has some RC planes and apparently has had them out at least once a month (including winter in MI!) for something like 13+years. We live 2000mi away so I haven't been around while he's had them in the air but I'll hit him up to take them out one of these trips (rather than just knocking back bottles ).

If You're Interested

Mac Hodges is the name of the guy flying the B29, this is the second airplane, the first one lasted 16yrs. until a wing spar broke doing the flat spin manuver. He has a farm outside of Americus Ga. where he built quite a large RC airfield. They do 3 or 4 shows in the summer time, a gathering of the best of the best. You have to say, Mac can fly that thing.
