    Relatively quick 3D print, assembled with a 50mm EDF and on a light 4S2200 pack for 4 minutes for flips and spins courtesy of the integrated thrust vectoring. The forward swept wing makes it virtually unstallable. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G7w2_mcfR2g

    Comes with the radio (with stabilisation mode), flight batteries and USB charge lead. Simple hand launch and watch the speed build ! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mOK9V9vvwHs

    Simple retrofit of CaddxFPV GT2 kit FPV VTX/camera and GM3 v2 gimbal to an FMS Cessna 182 1.7m aeroplane. I wear Caddx Goggles L which has integrated head tracking. Makes for very immersive and accurate flying for the chase pilot. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5-6ShScAczc

    Tyler Perry flying his Bombardier Global 7500 business jet (at Airliner Meeting, Oppingen-Au, Germany) which was built by Ramy RC. It has a scale of 1:4.5, wingspan of 7 metres and weight of 150 kg. Powered by electric ducted fans. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vea7EKuinlk

    After review of the video, the owner/pilot determined it was pilot error. Sad but happens to best of us. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DIDu5TZXnE4

    First flight. Next time out I'll remove fixed landing gear and install a gyro. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J0Ft-sPiwO0

    My 2nd attempt at this jet after a bad hand launch with the first one I made. This one flies even better ! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ChL2Kl79LmA

    Nothing beats flying formation especially with Warbirds. Just don't collide ! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PkBnyOLzQbo

    1.2 metre Hawker Hurricane from XFly. I show quick assembly then drop in a receiver and you are ready to fly this iconic Warbird. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=46TexY5wjZk

    Superb flying 50mm EDF and fairy quick to print and put together... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1i09JPXYBFY

    I 3D printed, built and flew this new design from Eclipson. Super simple to build and flies like a far more expensive composite glider. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=56JD9H02GLM

    Easy assembly with the included glue, hook up the control surfaces to the push rods, charge a flight battery, 4 AA batteries in the radio...then go fly ! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XOUQElY4o-M

    After nearly 10 years Joel Vlashof succeeds in designing and building an RC AV-8B Harrier Jump Jet that can actually take-off vertically, transition to flight then back to hover and land. Just an amazing achievement in aero-modelling. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jED6WOjL5cM

    A few minutes to assemble but a little longer to apply the decals with a covering iron. But worth the patience to apply them ! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZKsUwOxSz4I

    Simple assembly, lots of scale detail and perfect for noobs learning RC flight or experts flying aerobatics. I couldn't fault it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wr90ZmflVO0

    Quick assembly and runs on 4S or 6S packs. Bigger does fly better ! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gat5dIcNYLE

    I thought the original RCEra C138 was fantastic when it was released but it's now been improved with tail lights, brushless main motor, optical flow sensor, auto-inverted flight and improved feel to the radio transmitter.

    Caddx Walksnail FPV and iNav on a SpeedyBee flight controller in my DW Hobby 1.9m Savage Bobber Bush Plane. Just love the unobstructed views from this aeroplane. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kDP1mhP9Jow

    Exactly same features as the NEW PA-18 Super Cub. Ready to fly with 3 flight modes to suit difference experience levels. Stunt button and 'return to home' button. Comes with everything in the box needed to fly it except 4 x AA batteries. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qnWGXyZ2jl0

    First flights of FMS new mini PA-18. It has reasonable detail for little scale model and the well applies stickers do make it highly visible. The red stickers were pre-applied but there was a blue set in the box! We enjoyed flying it especially it's ease of take off/landing. The large wheels allow smooth take-off and it almost perfect landings can be achieved. Even in a 10-15mph breeze it is very stable in the air. We also liked that the non-stabilised/Manual mode which IS very flyable unlike many other mini Warbirds you can buy. We think the 'return to home' feature is a little mis-named. Preset the direction at take-off and it will always head back on the opposite to that direction when the RTH button is used. The red Stunt button works perfectly every time. Execute loops and rolls with ease. If travelling at 2/3 throttle or more then the rolls are very axial. The propeller does detach VERY easily from the claw mount on the motor shaft. The smallest touch on the ground and it will ping off so be careful you don't lose it. I wish they had included at least 1 spare propeller and prop hub as they are the components that are most likely to get broken. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U2eHexlynUY
