Can someone please explain to me exactly how you do Model Plane combat? I'd think shooting projectiles would be too dangerous. Do you just try and run into the other people??? Wouldn't both planes go down? Please help inform a Newbie on this subject.

The planes tow a 30 foot long crape paper streamer at the end of a 5-10 foot long leader string that is tied to the aircraft's tail. The object is to cut your opponents streamers!

There is all you could ever want to know about the sport here:

Thanks for the Information Tattoo

Hi axeman,if you like excitement,and don't fall in love with your plane,then give combat a try,lots of fun.

You are more than welcome! TerrellFlyer is right...never a dull moment in combat, and keeps the R/C fire burning like never before! I still have a trainer to fly for pure enjoyment and several sport planes, but nothing beats R/C combat!
