@@kissthis5361 The IL-62M was a blatant copy of the VC-10, something the Soviets were always doing, but without the performance or reliability of the VC-10/
It does turn right as well, as I have flown her outside when the wind is light. Just too tight in the hall to attempt a procedure turn. (Could have been embarrassing!)
@mrrcassidy I wouldn't waste my time filming anything turning left, over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over... That's called Nascar, and it's boring as hell.
Nice one! I’ve got the same model and made hinged rudder & elevator, but this is my first RC build in 25 years so any tips on control linkages would be great. I’ve got a Lemon Microbrick rx board with 2 servos built in and made a slot for it in front cockpit position.
I used similar to the Microaces Albatross, 0.5mm wires with 'Z' bends to lock in the control horn and the servo horn, linked by a 1mm/0.5mm carbon tube. You should be able to find the instruction manual or a tutorial video, both show it much more clearly than I can describe 🙂
XV106, one of Brize Norton's "Shiny Tens" which were used for VIP flights. I chose this specific scheme for my model while watching the funeral of Her Madge, who flew in this aeroplane with HRH Duke of Ed. to Malawi. The actual front fuselage is preserved at the Avro Museum at Woodford, Manchester, UK.
Just came scross this. Incredible! I didnt know such models existed for indoors. The Vulcan is my favourite of the V bombers. It had a huge following during its lifetime, which does not seem to have diminished with its service demise.
