I dunno, my first ever rc plane that had no surface controls, just with differential thrust and power to climb, it once got caught in a thermal, it went so high I could no longer see it, never to be seen again.

Yes, a landing is always guaranteed. However, the condition of the model after the landing is not guaranteed.
@batsonelectronics3 жыл бұрын
not true. There is still an .049 plane I crashed in a giant tree back in 2001 still in that tree in 2020. It was over 100 feet up. I don't know how long foam lasts but it likely won't land at least that long. Other than that, you are completely correct.

Hi! Don't know if you saw our comment on "250 RC plane crashes in 30 minutes" but we'd also love to use this mid-air collision footage. I'm repeating myself here just in case you did not see the other comment. We're looking for footage of foamie crashes that end up in pieces, with permission to use them in a video- and this is perfect (mid-air collision at 10:28 secs and slow motion!! Great capture!)! We're also having a contest to pick the best crash footage, and the winner gets a TigerShark- it could be yours!
