Giant scale Catalina RC model

First flight of this Catalina PBY-5A RC model made and designed by Sturla Snorrason in Iceland. This day (June 2001) an old retired captain, Smári Karlsson was at the airfield and told us about when he flew the original Loftleidir Catalina TF-RVG in the 1940´s.

good god that is so very nice!, theres a real one of these planes rotting at the airport near where I live, been there for years its a shame to see it slowly corrode to death.

Big Big mistake...!! NEVER point your antenna at the ground.! The aerial has to be sticking straight up in the air to transmit properly.
