Model jet crashes and burns Posted by: xjet
Video duration: 290 seconds Back in 2003 this model went down at the SWMAC November turbine meeting.

The Piper Cub, an old-man's RC plane Posted by: xjet
Video duration: 201 seconds (Formerly) Ace Flier thinks his 1/4-scale World Models Piper Cub is actually a cross between a pylon racer and an IMAC aerobatics plane.
