Now that the truck is done

I have been in the rc hobby for 15 years and am finishing up a 16 foot wingspan B-17 bomber for a guy in mn. I put my truck resto on hold to build the bomber and decided to finish the truck first anyway. I still have about 3 to 4 months work to go.

Re: Now that the truck is done

THose things are unbelieveable. Saw one fly years ago. They are awesome. I'm also into rc, just don't go that big a scale. lol

If you've never seen one, this is a good video, the B52 is massive also.
