RC Jets

It's been a long time since I've checked out remote control planes. I was just fooling around on YouTube and stumbled on some RC jet videos.







These puppies aren't cheap. The engines start at a couple grand and move up from there. The full kits for the fuselage, retracting gear, etc start at around three grand. Yep, that's at least five grand for a build it yourself, turbine powered fighter.

Even if you have the cash, the pro's recommend a slow progression up the RC food chain until you finally max out with these fast moving flyers.
