Nice planes, Travis. When I see such beauties airborne, I always worry that by one false move of one's finger they may turn into rubble. Always admire their pilots

those are really some very nice planes.. and a great hobby.

Very nice models - looks like they would be a lot of fun to fly.

Looks like a good hobby to take up.

Superb models Travis.
There are a few bits and bobs hidden among some of the threads here from other members who fly models. I'm sure when they see this post they will make themselves known.

That looks like fun! I keep toying with the idea of jumping into the RC hobby...

Really super, super cool! I'm glad to see rc mentioned in this forum.

WoW really refocused and then expanded an interest in WWI aircraft that 've had since childhood. Last fall I decided to build an 1/6th scale balsa RC Nieuport 28 and learn to fly large scale WWI aircraft.

The plane itself is 98% complete now (pic's anyone?) and I'm to the stage now where I need to install and wire up the battery, engine and servos. If there are any rc's out there that would be willing to give advice, perhaps we could take this offline.

This, in no way takes anything away for my love, admiration and respect for WoW.

Just another mania.

I love R/C as well but these two however are not R/C they are control line aircraft where you hold a handle with two wires leading to the plane and fly in a circle doing aerial acrobatics and speed competitions it give you more of a feel for the aircraft feeling what it is doing and i love it
