Didn't think you were allowed to fly any r/c model at over 25kg, but who cares, this looks and
sounds brilliant (and not like a wobbly vacuum cleaning whizzing round the sky!)

That's a lovely model and it sounds great too. Only thing I find with this sort of thing is they always fly faster than scale if that makes sense. You can get away with it on a fighter or a jet but that Ju52 probably flies as fast as the real thing

A belter though
Where did you get the 25kg limit from Toby? Most of the models on that page must be well over that.

This one is incredible, but perhaps a little over the top.

It was 20kg and you require an exemption.

Yes indeed..
25kg isn't a UK stipulation and in any case.. these only apply if flying above 400ft

How you know you're flying at or above 400ft is up to you
