Default Hobbies gone wild!

In the spirit of entertaining Bass......

I know we do a little nuts with S2000 mods but this guy is over the top with his hobby.

THIS HAS TO BE THE ULTIMATE BIG BOYS TOY!!!!!! (FOR MILLIONAIRES ONLY ?)


This is a really neat model airplane -- truly amazing! Make sure you click on the movie link at the bottom of the page to watch the movie of it in flight.

Actually has 8 "real turbines" at about $1500 each! Took over 2 years to
build. It has a wing span of about 22 feet. Takes multiple pilots , as there
are so many things to control.
Think they were nervous during the maiden flight?
Unbelievable that someone would make this - all real turbines! $12,000 just for the engines !
Check out the movie link below to see the first flight. AMAZING !! (9:02 min)

Those are two of the craziest things I have ever seen. This makes me want to finish making the RC car i started a year and a half ago. I should get a S2000 body for it.

The Farrari guy needs to get laid...

I enjoyed the crash footage much more than the long test flight...
