    RC B-52 Crashes

    The RC B-52 that posted on here a couple months ago crashed....damn even looks like a B-52 crash site!



    Why is it called tourist season, if we can't shoot at them?

        Reminds me: a few days ago, a Cessna made an emergency landing on a runway intended for model airplanes. The runway was 100m (too short for the Cessna), but it was enough to keep the pilot and passenger from harm...

        Too bad about that RC B-52...

        Hope they have the funds and courage to start all over...

          He must have let Greebe fly it

          This picture is the reason all my RC stuff has always been of the car variety. When I was growing up, we had a niehbor who built RC planes. He would spend weeks and months building the things, just to come home with a pile of toothpicks after just a few (if not just one) flight. I never saw the point...

            If they had it would still be in one piece like the rest of mine

            That'll teach'm from flying over N Korean airspace


            and the caption of the crash pic should read... and you guys whine about LiPo's!

                  I know, it's a shame especially after all that work.

                  Did they call the NTSB? I'm pretty sure they will be able to put the peices back together and find out the cause of the crash.

                  What about the Black Box, did they find it?
