Tango Posted August 21, 2016 Report Share Posted August 21, 2016 Ok, which of these aircraft isn't radio controlled. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NickT Posted August 21, 2016 Report Share Posted August 21, 2016 I bet they're all radio controlled, but I reckon picture number 3 would be the real one, if it is. . I've seen the vulcan one, it's brilliant Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted August 21, 2016 Report Share Posted August 21, 2016 It's definitely not 2, there is no cockpit, 1 and 4 look too small so I would agree it's 3. I'm amazed that they can be controlled from the ground at these sizes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SMARTLY Posted August 21, 2016 Report Share Posted August 21, 2016 Spotted this one a while back, amazing I thought for £1400 with a 89 inch wingspan: https://www.avforums.com/threads/large-scale-radio-control-hawker-hurricane.2044323/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Posted August 22, 2016 Report Share Posted August 22, 2016 I would say #3 but whatever what superb models..... Question is there a legal limit to the size. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tango Posted August 25, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 25, 2016 I did say 'which aircraft' and not 'which one', as there's two that are piloted normally. The first pic and the third. The first is a 3/4 scale replica, and the third is a full size Mustang. The LMA (https://www.largemodelassociation.com/) is the group controlling the building and flying of any R/C aircraft weighing over 20 kg. If you plan to build and fly a model aircraft in the UK of any type which weighs over 20kg then it is mandatory (a requirement of the Civil Aviation Authority) that the aircraft is built, inspected and flight proven using the over 20kg scheme operated by the Large Model Association on behalf of the CAA. In theory there's no limit to size Tony, although it's rare to design and build a scale model over 50% of full size. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
