    Winter is here, and it’s time to build! Today we push our new FT Maker Foam to the limit by building a 15 foot replica of the iconic iron giant. This classic metal robot made its first appearance in 1999. Our goal is to see how big we can build this only using only FT maker foam. Maker Foam was designed specifically to be a fantastic material for both building radio controlled aircraft and also artistic creations that need to be strong yet light. Our new formulated version is water resistant, structural, and is also able to be illuminated. These projects are something that families, friends, and even STEM programs can do. Please let us know in the comments below, if you would like to see patterns or even speed build kits of our classic nonflying FT designs.

    Talking about large models, I came across a vid on the 'Experimental Aircraft' channel where a guy in Greece scaled up what I imagine was one of 'Flite Test's F22 Raptors big enough for it to qualify as a powered flying Experimental plane!
    The design has been bought out by an American company, Fisher Aircraft, who are planning to make kits for the public. It is powered by a Rotax engine with a 3 blade pusher prop.

I am a big fan of your channel and have been inspired by it alot, especially your videos with the monster-size planes. why do you not man a monster water plane like the Seaduck or maybe something like the Canadair CL-415. that would be awesome to see.

    Soooooperrrrmannnnn:-) (I'm not crying; you're crying!) For someone making this in a little smaller scale, one possible way to do the articulation is with bungee cords; they will keep a tension on the joint but allow you to pose it and then leave it where you posed it. Some of my kid's cheap plastic action figures used rubber bands this way. I was able to articulate a flat foam t-rex of six foot size with just tabs of plywood and strong rubber bands, worked easy and effective. Josh, maybe next time The Big Guy and Rusty The Boy Robot?
