I see some Beings here, let not forget their great great great great great great great great great father.

One of my collection - The Boeing PT-17:

Ya i know but they talk bunch of quadcopter and and non-scale stuff. So i ran here hehehe..


I don't want to offend anyone with R/C model in this topic, but i will show planes that looks realistic and scale only so it will offer real life feeling of aviation hobby and appealing to scale modelers . So beautiful real planes have its rights. No fughly quadcopter for sure hehehe..

Oh btw you can buy locally at http://www.rcsmart.com.my

Nowadays most r/c models looks as good as scale models so the will look good both on the table and flight. All models today runs on electric turbine cost at RM150. Some models required further painting while other looks as good as out of the box. Price range between RM150 ~ RM800. Fine molding foam technology made it possible to have realistic panels and lining on these models. The all have realistic landing gear, payloads, wing surface movement, lights and etc. So nowadays i like both looks good and also can fly. I like to take action photos too rather than statics.

Here's our sunday:

Yes LanXiang are expensive but you can buy kit version only for under RM450 without electronics and still have load of functional details in every corner of the plane. at rcsmart.com.my there a plane BAE very small and very scale that fly too and people mistaken it as model plastic kit.





Actually the bigger they are the easier they fly because more wing surface to get stabilzed life in the air. Thats why you see many old people in youtube can fly because their plane big. But i fly small budget ones. Still you're lucky to like today because there lots of under USD$40 flight controller that electonically help you to fly and stabilized your clumsy hand on stick. So flying today is easier than old days. If you crash just use hot glue and the plane still looks great because its all made out of foam, the same packing foam you found on box tv set packaging.


Oh btw here some poisons compliments from my hangar on warbirds :

My British Spitfire MK24:

Hmmm.. i lost track how many i have...maybe 67 planes...excluding helis and other stuff.
Btw you can check out my hangar and other stuff at my website.......caution..poisonous site!

This AIRBUS belong to my friend, just parked beside my P-38 Lightning.
I'm still nego with him if he wanna sell that A320 to me.

No offense maybe we should head to R/C model threads (https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/2530564) for proper answer it before it become OT.

Hope you guys don't mind would like to join a band of F-18 Hornet fans. I just got this scale model F-18 Blue Angels full payloads, small enough for my desk decoration, waiting to add weathering air brushing soon.

Here two of my queen shelf WW2 plane which i treasure a lot. I was flying it yesterday while my friend took cool scale shots in the air. The P-51D Mustang and F4U Corsair. They are super scale models that flies and looks good on my office table. Have it for 4 years already. I did some paint touch up on aluminum like panels, weathering and paint on dummy engine to make overall plane looks realistic veteran like warbirds.

Hey guys, long time no visit this threads. Just wanted to share some scale stuff but mostly are big ones. Coming in this week in my hangar are monster Sukhoi SU-46 BERKUT and B-17 Flying fortress. Assembled and going to do some painting and install all the missing parts details. Another un open box is soon to be MALAYSIA AIRLINES DHC-6 Twin otter will take 2 month for touch up. Will be ready for local public city modeler exhibition this May 2016

SU-47 Berkut:








B-17 Flying fortress:

A visit to my friends house showcase collection of his aviation model kits and paint works.

Yes those are R/C models, today the have improve the looks to make it looks as scale as possible and runs efficiently on electric. They look good on the shelf once painted and on the air with full flaps, slants, gear, lights and etc....and it even have parachute air brake (for Sukhoi plane). The best yet to come as i'm waiting shipment of monster size F-14 tomcat 100% pure scale details just release this year...its my dream plane Will need a big van to carry it.

Let me see, you will need one time investment stuff such as:
1. Radio controller (with LCD) + receiver module: RM250
2. Battery charger (lipo): RM45
3. Standard 3s 2200mah lipo battery: RM60 per-piece

Then you can buy an rc plane of any amount:
3. Glider (for beginner): RM250

TOTAL cost: 250 + 45 + 60 + 250 = RM605 (approximate cost for to start flying your first plane on the budget).
_________________________________________________________________________________
** On your next plane you don't have to buy number 1,2 or 3. Just buy another plane is enough



Right now i'm waiting for this one to arrive, slow boat from the states:
Super scale and super huge!

After plus shipping and currency rate it RM3,150. A hefty price to pay for a tomcat. Soon there be two tomcats in the hangar.

Thanks,
Some huge jet model just arrived two days ago, i quickly assemble it but have not yet painted/airbrushed or bought engine yet. Have to buy a pilot figure and some decals. Once its airbrushed or weathered it will be like that P-51D mustang in the middle there. Bought lots because we're going to have local scale exhibition soon in few month to come.
Here are some preview, some i bought are duplicated spare.
