How large would be a scale B52, using eight of the smallest turbines available? Curious about the amazing skills of R/C’ers nowadays. 🙏🏼

[@TheTravelingTechGuy]

Good question! Hopefully some of the long time builders/designers can answer that? Thanks for the question and for watching!!!

Beautifull aircraft !
However very few were trimmed for landing and therefore the short finals were an oscilatting affair of note .
Why use a bumpy grass surface while a prooer smooth runway is right next door ?!
The bumpy grass also leads to unscale takeoffs and very near nose overs on landing !

The grass field is much more forgiving than pavement.
