So you think you can build a model aircraft

[Deskpilot]

I'm not into model aircraft as such but this is bloody amazing. Talk about dedication, one mindedness, stickability and pure skill. this guy has it all.

 

Now I'm warning you, this is not a small site so don't open it unless you have time on your hands, a lot of time.

Years and years of hard work planning and dedication!!!!

 

Luckily he has made molds of everything as he has gone through the creation of the model!:thumb_up:

Absolutely amazing!

 

You could'nt put a price on what the finished model would have been worth.

 

Doug you could have warned us that there were 80odd pages to download, and that the little boy in the early photo's is now probably married with half a dozen kids, but he would have learned one hell of a lot along the way.

 

I didnt see anything of his misses (neither did he) but maybe he's like some ultralighters, and prefers it that way.

 

And to think that I thought my Airfix Lancaster Bomber kit took a long time to build.

 

Thanks for sharing the link.

 

Regards

Alan, I thought my warning was sufficient, never mind. Worth the wait though, eh?

Wouldn't you be peeved if some kid who'd bought an ARF (Almost ready to fly) decided to try it out in the park next door on a common radio frequency.

 

These guys are passionate about detail. At my local RC field a fierce, yelling argument broke out between three guys because one of them had built a modern aircraft, but the only "pilot" in the hobby shop was dressed in brown leathers and a scarf and he used that!

I,ve built a couple of 2 metre stand off scale R/C models but-WOW. got to page 60 and had to give it away.

 

this guy is an absolute fanatic at what he is doing..

 

Think I,ll go out and glue a few balsa bits together!!

 

Happy flying

Ahhhhhh ........... The black arts of the RC modeller.

 

As I am still active in the model scene I see alot of very fine work done by these strange little men in their sheds that we all secretly admire.

 

I saw a bloke I knew buy a plastic kit from a toy shop and 'weeks' later he brought the 1/4 scale version to the field for its madien. Its unbelieveable to think he could upscale and build soooo fast. He said he just used the model and its drawings and photocopyed up to size and he went from there.

 

Nice work on this jet though.

 

He needs a mid life crisis and a step up to real flying.

Hey Maj, I hear that someone in Victoria is going to 'Try' to get an ex RAAF Mirage up and flying again. I saw it in a recent issue of 'Flightpath' magazine. It says that one of the only things missing is the Brake Chute. Now that will be a sight to see on the airshow scene.
