Thought a few of you may be interested in some information and images of the large C-17 Globemaster I built for the U.K. T.V series Supermodels. The model has now had three very successful flights and we are due to fly again this weekend.

Scale is 1/9th, with a total wingspan of over 21 foot. Weight fuelled is around 240 lbs, and it is powered by four Jetcat 120 turbines.

We have opening cargo doors, and have dropped a Land Rover model on pallet on the second flight.

Equipment includes 5 Futaba PCM receivers, 20 servos, 16 battery packs, on-board air compressor, etc, etc.

I hope the images appear, as this is the first post I have made on R/C Universe.
