A-10 Warthog at ANZAC 2010 jet meeting

One of the largest jet-powered RC planes you're likely to see is this very nice A10 Warthog powered by two turbine engines.

It was put through its paces at the 2010 ANZAC model jet meeting at Tokoroa New Zealand in February.

This meeting is an annual event and shouldn't be missed if you're interested in RC model aircraft.

Beautiful. My hope someday after I retire is to switch into jet RC's. The good thing about that is, the more technology increases, the price goes down on our hobbie's. An A-10 Tank Buster is one of my all time favorites.Wonderful attention to detail, I can guess the pride you feel. Also, how your heart races that nothing goes wrong...lol. We all have that feeling. Please post more of your A-10...SKY-PILOT, Oregon, USA

@saragosarawhide Check my channel page -- it features a video of this very model catching on fire during take-off and doing a (very) emergency landing with flames pouring out of the engines.

Totally amazing.

@dcontygr1 If you check out more recent videos on my channel, you'll see this model catch-fire in mid-air.

@JOHNO4992 If you check my more recent videos you'll see footage of this same model catching on fire in mid-air a year later at the ANZAC 2011 event.

When this bird is in the air, its truly magnificent. I catch myself asking, 'is that a full size A-10? And why are those poor bastards potentially standing in hellfire?'
