Hands down, the most sophisticated R/C aircraft I've ever read about.

Re: Amazing Warthog

I thought I was going to read about something radical. The techniques used to build this bird are nothing that aren't used by average scratch build modelers the world over. It is a nice bird but I'm more impressed when a modeler without an engineering background builds a sophisticated bird. These guys had an engineer involved in the construction. It would have been pathetic if they didn't come up with something impressive.

When you have to shoot...shoot. Don't talk!

Good lord, there's nothing worse than the foul stench of desperation when someone wants to be famous.

Re: Amazing Warthog

Those jets are awesome, Raasean. I didn't realize how big they acutally were until I skipped to the end and saw them land with the guys in the shot for reference!
