Gentlemen,

I have definitive proof by way of photographs that a pure-bred r/c combat model would defeat an r/c helicopter hands down, no contest whatsoever. Because of the graphic nature of the photographs, viewer discretion is advised. In photo one, we see the r/c heli, already on it's side laying helplessly on the ground, the r/c combat model approaching like a crazed pit bull dog. In photo two, (oh, the horror, the horror ), the r/c heli is seen a millisecond before being ripped apart by the combat plane's prop. End of debate

Man, it would have been better if you had photoshopped it or perhaps draw a
cartoon or infringed on one or more movie copywrite.

A few years ago there was an outlaw field off 35 in Lewisville. Now, I did not persoannly witness this incident, but I have it from a very relable source that a pilot did a split s striaght into a helis rotor...don't think there was a winner, as it was a gas chopper and a balsa plane. From what I understand, the rotor hit the engine, (or vice versa) and then there was mutual disintegration. Or so goes the legend...

Awesome! And, the horror of the combat plane made me laugh out loud.

All I gotta say is: Is the heli FULLY 3D, is the pilot Pretty Dang Good, and is the plane a good plane and has a pretty dang good pilot? Im sure it all comes down to piloting, doging each other's vheicles, and the areobatic capabilities of the vheicles.

Of all the completely inane things that have been stated in this most rediculous thread,
this one took the cake.
Did you know that posts to the world wide web reach beyond your County?
No state, or general area in a state given. Are you kidding me.

I've seen midairs like that before though and it has nothing to do with being a Non-AMA field (That's all that was meant by Outlaw field) The last airplane vs helicopter midair I saw was videotaped. The video chopper was trying to tape a SloStar race and one of the pilots lost his head going around a pylon and before he got control of it he crashed into the helicopter. After landing the Heli pilot only needed to remove the foam airplane parts and he was good to go again. I don't see Cash as offering a report on full contact combat in this instance only in a midair report, which we've all related before.

However, if you had just left the over a month old thread go it would continue to scroll off the screen into the other billions of words that nobody reads anymore.
