    X-Flight \ Supreme Hobby A320 twin 50mm EDF Airliner

    Second fright after a few repairs, modifications and a more rearward CG. Missing and poor hardware and bad servos have made this already expensive kit a little more than challenging.

    Large scale F-14 Tomcat (in-flight wing sweep)

    A rare but fantastic sight of a seriously big F-14 powered by two Kingtech K210 gas turbine engines. Watch as it starts-up, takes off and demonstrates the swing wing mechanism.

    Giant Ready to Fly FMS Extra 330

    Our first flight with this big ready to fly Extra 330 from FMS. Even in the hands of an experienced 3D pilot it will take a few spins to get the best from it but our Trevor did good in the conditions.
