RC P-38 Jet

478 BillyTheKid1138  1.3 years ago

An RC trainer version of my weird jet powered P-38. Useful for landing and orientation training for RC pilots. Switch to camera 1 to try flying from a stationary viewpoint on the ground.

It was designed to go fast and corner fast, not win beauty contests...
