    Canopy plastic wasn't clear enough to put an FPV camera inside so I mounted it up on the tail. Nice view seeing the aeroplane in the foreground with the scenery below... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9UdfcBtplEU

    First flight. Needs some work but good to get it in the air. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YvUbykwo1ko

    Our first time trying to fly Spitfires in formation. A few improvements required and I'll convert the 2nd Spitfire to FPV. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i1F074H0bsA

    The most fun I've had doing RC in a long time...

    Ultimate head tracked FPV. Looking forward to some formation flights with Red 2 in near future. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-xx0KNdf518

    Bad cross wind on that day and we get turbulence off the top of the trees at that location. I was focussing on reading the telemetry more than smooth flying most of the time. Some improvements still to make. Not sure why distance to home wasn't showing in the telemetry. I will look into that. And because I'm using a flight controller I will on future flights take advantage of the gyro stabilisation.

    I wouldn't have thought long flight times were possible with an EDF jet. Seems I was wrong! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XrIq7ZYHqGw

    At only $65 for the ELRS version it's a great option for anyone joining the hobby... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RqOkHOK4tBw

    Beautiful and skilful aero-modelling. Despite being light this tiny electric ducted fan model is still quite quick and obviously challenging to fly in this sports hall. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_gGjLFpPvPI

    Beautiful large 1:6 scale scratch built Avro Lancaster in 'G for George' scheme. It is powered by 4 Zenoah 38cc engines. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Ah95IOOINc

    Fantastic little Super Decathlon that goes together very quickly in 20 minutes due to the design and completeness of the kit. I set mine up on my Radiomaster TX16S transmitter and a Spektrum receiver. First flight I was doing all the aerobatic moves I could think of ! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d8I4oCi-e8k

    I have flown so many foamies recently I'd forgotten how good a balsa model could actually be. OMP obviously take pride in the quality of their product. Arrives in an almost bullet proof container to protect it from any knocks during shipping and you can understand that when you see how light the components are. Takes just a few minutes to assemble the PNP version. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yncjEx0124U

    A demonstration of great skill by this pilot when the engine on his Spitfire quits and he has to execute a down wind landing to stand any chance of getting it home safely https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2mSM-DPeXnE

    Something different ! Cartoon interpretation of an F-14 Tomcat. Goes together easily but has a couple of issues which caused a take off failure on the 1st attempt. 2nd attempt good though and looked awesome in the air ! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cns6TsEE0_c

    Luke Metcalf flying this in true scale style. Lightning by name and he flies it like Lightning. I had trouble keeping up. Full after burners and tight turns. TERRIFIC ! Span: 176 cm Length: 284 cm Engine: B300F turbine (320N thrust) Built by Paul from the Airworld Modellbau kit. 9 litres of fuel onboard in two 4.5 litre tanks. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KzwfKj-0htQ

    The yellow Waco built and flown by Greg was built from a Barth kit (Germany) and the other Waco was built from an American AMR kit at the same scale. They weigh 23kg and the 29kg respectively and both are powered by Blackstar 250cc 5 cylinder 4 stroke radials from Tomahawk Aviation throwing 32x16 propellors. Both Wacos use Futaba radio with Powerbox sbus systems for guidance. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YDtd_ZIbq4k
