Finally, scale airspeed! Fantastic detail. Gear, lights and control surfaces. The fuselage is filled with helium and only weights 10 oz. Ducted electric fans. Pretty impressive.

 
Now I want one! I'm guessing something that light and slow would not do too well flying with any kind of winds though.

Nope. Indoor only pretty much. You need a big empty warehouse. Maybe this can be a new urban hobby like slot car racing used to be. Bring your models down to the indoor airport.
 
NASCAR version? Only turns left....
 
Meh, where were the trust reverses?:lol: It's a pretty nice model indeed.:yesnod:

Well you did see how on the landing roll out all the flaps, flaperons and spoilers were fully deployed. I was pretty impressed by that myself. The motors may not have actually reversed thrust and the tires didn't smoke, but most of the visual clues of an airliner coming back to earth were there.:yes:

Yeah, all the spoiler detail was cool.
 
Also had helium in body to perform this way in such tight area.

Yup helium.
