That very cool! Always loved the Byron Originals planes. I bought a set of Nick Ziroli plans for a giant scaled DC-3 almost 20 years ago but have never gotten around to building it. Maybe once "retirement" gets here...
Let me land my rc ch47 on it! Err wait, the 47 crashes and burns every time it takes off...
Let me come land my AH64D on that! It has cool lights and stuff.

The aircraft carrier needs some bb firing R2D2 AA batteries on it......

All I need is another expensive, demanding pastime.

Pretty neat. Coming from a family of naval aviators, I appreciate that, but boy, they
need a better pilot on that T-28.

If it was easy, anybody could do it.
I did notice that to make it work they had to line the controller up with the carrier, facing directly down the flight deck. I assume it was a control issue, and they needed to see the situation changing as it changed. I was not crazy about the pilot aiming the plane directly at himself during takeoff to make it work. I wouldn't have done it. He almost had to duck the plane as it took off.
Suspect they'd been better off launching a smaller scale aircraft. There are some really nifty 'micro' electrics that would be much easier to launch (shorter take-off run) and would come closer to fitting the scale of the carrier model. Our club range is still snowed in so I'll be at the annual E-Fest tomorrow - http://www.hobbico-efest.com/index.html - watching the 'hot rocks' and factory guys do their thing and drooling over the latest generation planes and hardware.

I thought about RC helos back in the late 1970's when I was in the Army flying Hueys. Very fragile & expensive. Fast forward to a few years ago, and the new generation of cheaper, easy to fly RC stuff. I now own 7 different Helos/Quads, and have give 3 as gifts to the (adult) sons.
The RC world has come a LONG way!
That one chopper reminded me of one the Russian attack choppers. And, it zigged when it should have zagged. Really neat, fun video. Thanks!!!
I could have a lot of fun with those guys!
