Radio controlled F-14 video.

It must be hard to control this thing, prop driven maybe but this thing is jet powered. U cant really tell its not the real thing once it gets airborne, i wonder what the specs are? must be at least 200mph+.

Very cool video, I have a small scale chopper, and some trucks, the trucks have 2 hp motors.


Those are real jet trust, talking about $1500-$5000 per engine.

very good video i would say they had multiple cameras. i would say crashing this baby would be devistateing.interesting that they are able to get good footage of it in flight. being so small and fast. hire these guys to film ufos would ya.

i would guess it is about a 1:10 scale. and once in flight only the sound would give it away in open sky. very cool i wish i could afforrd one. i would definatly say a jet is only for an experianced rc pilot. better to start off with a cheap semi indestructable prop driven bird first. unless of course you have money commin out your rear.

good link to the videos there Spittn..


Got me to thinking.... someone could actually build "little" bombs and put on those planes....

I can see it now, you're having a spat with the neighbor down the street... he comes and throws eggs on your car... so how do you repay him..

send in the F-14 with the "little stink bombs"... fly over his house and let'em go...

There are two really good videos of crashs in the last link, of my last post.

A guys starts cring.


A little bigger, 1/8 th or even one 1/5th scale

For sometime I have wondered the same.

yes you could use it to bomb. years ago some guy in my area used to drop fire crackers he built an igniter and drop mechanisim. it was cool (when it worked for some reason they didn't always get lit).

in high school i thought about how fun it would be to build a rc b-29 and a scale bomb load, then film carpet bombing the soccerfield. my chemistry teacher (a ex-university phisics profeser) said it could be done but the detinators would be a bit difficult to manufacture. also ther was this little legal thing about building bombs. oh yeah and a minni bomb would only do minni damage. so you wouldn't do all that much damage

God must be icelandic to permit such a smooth landing

WOW!!!

How much do i want one of those!
That would be so much fun!
Bit expensive if u crashed it though! Great landing!!!

One of thetop movies in the moves link, has a plane with a cam, shows Speed, Alt and a couple of other things.

One of my friends had a some of these he has a F/A-18 and a F-14, they are so hard to fly I have tried but they are too fast for me to try and control. This kid is rich so he can afford to fly recklessly and take risks. I’m hoping to get one for myself soon.

I have an electric heli(chopper), its has 6 channels, super hard to fly.

The one video show the plane doing like 120, 130.

This is very interesting guys but how is it an "aircraft project"?

Minutemen UAV's It the best thing since cottage cheese.

I prefer Cheddar but I get the point. Thanks.

In all reality, maybe BTS is the place for this thread. I was tring to be funny, a sorry try I guess.

I can see the unmanned aspect of this, especially in this day.

A concensus though.

What do you think?
