Hi Chaps This guy has us all seriously beat. youtube.com/watch?v=E-1_JwlHO-8 And it flys as well! The plane is aptly named Obsession. Bill sorry if I posted this in the wrong place. |

My minis can fly, too, they just need some help from a disgruntled gamer. That is cool, especially at 1/3 scale, and it's functional! |

Only if it could drop ordinance would make it more impressive. That is fantastic |

Crikey, that is dedication and only 18-years to complete |

You have understated the description, sir. It doesn't just "fly", it's piloted. It's an actual home-built, fully flyable aircraft with a pilot seat and controls. He even starts the motors sequentially. It's a real 4-engine plane. That is incredible. Unfortunately, I can't think of a single set of rules that would work for this kind of model… - Ix |

That is more a feat of engineering than modelling, but wow, just wow. |

That is awesome! I used to know a guy who had a company custom building scale RC fighter jets that were enormous and kept in hangers, but 1/3 scale props--wow! That is amazing. Now, does he fly it through 1/3 scale flak? |

I thought gaming could get expensive! It's a lot easier to sneak new soldiers into the house than airplane in your garage! That was amazing. |

Impressive, I am awed by his skill just as I was by the fellow that built a 7/10 scale replica of a Stuka. YouTube link |

It is mighty impressive! Most modellers can beat me, especially since I don't finish many. |
