My collections

These nice planes which were built from scratch are now placed in my hanger. They served me with glory and honour in the good old days. Each of this took me almost 2 days to set up properly.


The yellow plane is equipped with a camera and a powerful video transmitter. Live video is broadcast to my notebook computer simultaneously. What I do is flying at the screen like playing simulation games.








My first log

Mar 13, 2009, a beautiful day with lots of experienced pilots gathered at a place. DIY extra 300s 3D plane made stunt and practised ballet.



The second plane I saw was a Multiplex Easy Glider, which was a pure glider without any power unit. The owner custom-made a motor mount and installed a 1200kv powerful powerplant, making it to shoot into the sky in a second.



3D planes are always popular, especially those which are made of EPP materials. People say they are non-breakable, but they break anyway. It plays stunts easily but they are a lot affected by winds as the building material is soft.

This BeeGee is tough and survives many crashes (of course I think those are human errors). It is very suitable for beginners as it is easy to control and fix using 5 min epoxy.
