RC Tank Warfare community hobby forum

Look at the photo, what a wonderful plane it is!The Messerschmitt Me-262, with 2X 70mm EDF with 60 Amp esc for both. It has retractable landing gear, lights, 6-channel spectrum receiver,and a 5 cell battery that can make the plane hit speeds over 100mph. It is very suitable for flight training.

My Albotross...from Freewing...
I did a little work on it and dressed it in a rare livery...

They are both sooo nice.
What size are they ?
Hard to judge without something known for scale.

The 'Swallow ("Schwalbe" ?) still a beautiful aircraft even by todays standards.

The models are made almost in the same scale, span 1500 mm, length 1200 mm
But Freewing has a more realistic body and engine nacelles...
And I have a 6000 mAh 6 C battery.
The plane is not for beginners - a storm of emotions.
I also have whistles installed in the nacelles and the sound of the turbines is simply mesmerizing!

I am in spots, opposite is my son, a master pilot...

Ah, Pavel, you have so many great toys, I have long wished I could afford to RC fly, but I have steadfastly resisted because I already have too many trains, farm equipment models galore, and, of course, an excessive number of RC and static AFVs. Then, too, eye/hand coordination was not too good even when I was young. Enjoy! And I am sure a number of us would enjoy videos of your flying skills (and you son's flying skills).

There are many flight videos..
BUT, you probably heard that in Russia there were some small problems with YouTube...
I can't even give you a link to the video, I'll try to go to the site from a smartphone, the screen resolution is lower there, and I'll copy the links, or better yet, I'll give you a name and you'll find the video by it, from me and my son....
Yes, basically my main hobby is RC ships, then my son grew up and got interested in cars, for many years we participated together in competitions of different levels, my son became the champion of Russia among juniors, then the transition to the DTM 1/10 on-road class, asphalt-carpet, a lot of prizes, participated in the Tamiya championship in Basel, 1st place in the final "B" F-1.
A lot of SUVs, for trials. And so we got into aviation, I have a submarine, a hovercraft, two yachts, a tunnel M-41, with one propeller and two Z-motors... I'll get tired of listing them, I'm sure I forgot something, and yes, helicopters class 450, Bell 222 600 and Bell 222 700, electric....

Sorry for the many letters

Herr professor I have the answer. Right now on eBay are rc pla printed kits of the mustang and spitfire I am just trying to establish the scale. 1/16 would require between 700mm and 900mm wing span for a fighter dependant on the aircraft

Mr Pavel they are some nice warbirds
