The first few secs I thought I was seeing a vid of a real one....buddy who sent the link teased me with memories of our last JATT* mission in Germany cross training with the NY Air Nat Guard..."The Boys From Syracuse Go Ugly Early"

*Joint Attack Tactical Training

Last Year Xplane guy bought and tested a very sophisticated RC A 10 that is well in our price range...I gotta bet this big scale one in the video is a multi thousands$$$ model

Wait just a darn minute. That was fantastic. My hat's off to the person(s) that conceived, built, and flew that model. Nav lights, red/right/returning, etc.. What's not to love.

But no sound. Mute, unmute. volume...……. to no joy.........I'm missing something. Went to diagnostics, analyzing the problem with a big screen blocking out half the action. What's that...flares, chaff around the edges? More fantastic.

Still no sound. Checking

Thanks for sharing that. It is a very nice model. I also like all the flares and guns with sounds.

Outstanding flying, and a beautifully built and finished scale model of one of the best ground support aircraft ever made!

I can't believe how well that ECM dispensing system worked, unless that was edited in after the fact?

There was some discussion of building more of the A-10 type, but of course they were relatively inexpensive compared to the F-35, and not enough politicians owned stock in the right companies to make it worth while.
