Didn't come up but you should have seen the crash.....looked like a real one....even started a big fire with lots of black smoke.

I'll look around and see if I can find it.

Wow!!

When he lands, you expect to see a little van drive up and tiny Ground Support troops run out.

Nice work.
Lots of man-hours I'm sure.

If your currently on Win Media Player 9 or 10, then you may need to go out and update your codecs.

You may be behind in various codecs.
Make sure your at least Windows Media Player 9.
An example of a common codec is Divx.
You can download the newest Divx Codec here:

http://www.divx.com/divx/download/

You dont need to register, just bypass all that and take the down load.
You also dont need the integrated player, just take the codec(s).

There are other codecs out there. Im not sure the one you'll need.

Rich.

I must have missed something because I didn't see any crash. That thing is pretty cool though. He just needs to find a way to load it with miniature bombs and then he can have some real fun.

That thing was awesome I have been flying Rc's for years my latest is a pylon racer every now and then at the rc airport a guy comes out with a f-15 with a real turbine engine not a ducted fan and man it is so fast by the time he gets it turned around it is time to turn around again makes me dizzy just watching it He said it was clocked at over 200mph they cost about 5k to build engine being the most of that price that cargo jet that must be a 50k toy and at least a year build incredible

No kidding! That plane is huge too! I've seen a couple videos before that had F16 looking planes, they were wicked fast. I'll see if I can find the links for them again. I can't believe they can make jet engines that small. Nice vid!
