@@Toscanto This was not Orestes, this was Paul. 3-time WC and 3-time NATS champ Bill Werwage was the launcher, the "battery man" and engineering assistance was multi-time combat flier Howard Rush, "handle caddy" was World Champ and 14-time NATs champ David Fitzgerald.
I guess they were after a scale model and at flying test realized it had too much power. Too fast for scale contest. Better enter aerobatics category. Amazing model though.
It was built solely and entirely as a stunt plane. Also interesting - this is the SECOND version of the B-17, the first having been built in 94-95. It is probably a better scale plane than most people have ever built, but as far as I know it was never entered in a scale contest.
the best four engine stunt model i have ever seen
However too fast, it's not good to see
Paul Walker was one of my dads friends. I remember seeing his collection of planes. He must have had over 30 planes hanging in his garage.
Gorgeous airplane, thank you for posting

Best Stunt Ship ever!

Boy, do I have mixed emotions about this...🤨
I'm glad the others had the decency not to fly during ...too late
We are not worthy
It's not F4B class... 😂😅

That model was built for stunt.
@@robinboucherwonderfulflight That is true.
There is a control line scale class.
Some very impressive models there.

Needs more power lol.
I was thinking more cowbell.
No, it did not! 4 OS 15FPs on a central bladder and regulators are *plenty* of power.
Не розумію чому копія бомбардувальника виконує фігури вищого пілотажу , таке враження , що пілот копіїст переплутав класи моделей .
