    I've seen this before. Did you notice that it took TWO radios and operators/pilots?? lol. Think of what a Prop chip and a two way radio link could do for this airplane?? Engine RPM sync, air speed feedback, altitude control, GPS, autopilot.... The mind reels at the possibilities!!

    I'm working on a large scale R/C submarine project with two way data using the Props and some 432 Mhz data radios.

    It's not the first time I have seen this size plane.

    @Mike B.
    A large scale R/C submarine project will be cool to see and good luck.

    A guy also built and flew a 24ft plane called "Pink Floyd"..... it's made entirely of pink Home Depot styrofoam...... if I remember correctly in a college dorm room!!!!!!

    He was supposed to built a 50ft version, but he graduated and married..... y'know life.
