    One thing I love most about this hobby is that landing is always guaranteed!

      I dunno, my first ever rc plane that had no surface controls, just with differential thrust and power to climb, it once got caught in a thermal, it went so high I could no longer see it, never to be seen again.

      Landing is actually mandatory

      Yes, a landing is always guaranteed. However, the condition of the model after the landing is not guaranteed.

      @batsonelectronics 3 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      not true. There is still an .049 plane I crashed in a giant tree back in 2001 still in that tree in 2020. It was over 100 feet up. I don't know how long foam lasts but it likely won't land at least that long. Other than that, you are completely correct.

    Hi! Don't know if you saw our comment on "250 RC plane crashes in 30 minutes" but we'd also love to use this mid-air collision footage. I'm repeating myself here just in case you did not see the other comment. We're looking for footage of foamie crashes that end up in pieces, with permission to use them in a video- and this is perfect (mid-air collision at 10:28 secs and slow motion!! Great capture!)! We're also having a contest to pick the best crash footage, and the winner gets a TigerShark- it could be yours!

    The “spot landing” video reminded me of those nature films you sometimes see where they show bees in slow motion closeup as they come in for a landing at the hive - excellent editing there, really made me laugh.

I would never have been able to turn that mid-air into a super-slow-mo "close-up" shot without 4K footage and a day's worth of GPU-based image processing :-) Stabilized flight footage also looks nice from time to time.

    The difference between men and boys
    Is the size of their toys.
    ...and the fact that the Mrs. doesn't weep openly when the boy breaks his toys. Crashing a $3,000 RC aeroplane, then telling her that he's going to buy another which costs 10 times that is sure to put tears in her eyes.

    You need to get some helium balloons and cray paper. Competitive mid air ribbon cutting. Or just have one plane drop the ribbons and the other planes cut the ribbons. Cray paper is biodegradable so it won't harm the environment should the debris fall where you cant get to it afterwards.
