Head tracked FPV just got easier with the new FPV Goggles L and GM series gimbals from Caddx. Previously it has required a separate head tracking unit fixed to the side of the FPV goggles and plugged into the radio transmitter trainer port to send the head movements to the receiver which sent the si...

Scratch built Beechcraft Model 18 powered by twin Saito 90 3 cylinder radial engines by Bernd at Airliner Meeting 2024. Doesn't get any better than this. Very well flown.

Converted from 4 x micro turbines to 4 x electric ducted fans but does it fly better ?

I'm looking forward to trying one of these soon.

Building this is one thing...but having the skill to fly it indoors is something else. Great skill demonstrated by master aero-modeller Andrew White.

Takes a while to print out but the STLs from PlanePrint incorporate clever design features that make it very rapid to assemble and drop in the electronics.

Canopy plastic wasn't clear enough to put an FPV camera inside so I mounted it up on the tail. Nice view seeing the aeroplane in the foreground with the scenery below...

Beautiful and skilful aero-modelling. Despite being light this tiny electric ducted fan model is still quite quick and obviously challenging to fly in this sports hall.

Maybe not super scale but definitely super-light. Flies like a feather weight...

A highlight from the recent BMFA Indoor RC Scale Nationals. The most graceful entry in my opinion.

Spotted this at the recent ProWing Show in Germany. New Flexwing type Microlight. Will be available last 2023 from Cefics.com for about 2K Euro apparently.
