    Hello from France!
    I love the big scale for the flight realistic movements and inertia.
    No way to do same with small plane as physics laws does not permit such réalism
    I'm worried about the 9 dislikes ? Who could not been happy seeing such a plane, such built, such smiling pilot and great flight knowledge?!!?!
    Yeah that's great and thank you giving us this moment!
    Wish I could see it on ski landing and touch'n go on snow ?
    👍❣️

    It sure is a beauty. The only thing that bugs me about the decathlon models is that so many of them have flaps and the real one doesn’t. It’s definitely nice to have in an rc model though

    At my local club, we hosted a scale rally event a couple of months ago, and someone turned up with a 1/2 scale Piper Cub. It had a DLE 220cc in it. Was awesome to watch fly.

      Over water is the last place you would want to fly a plane this expensive, there is always the chance that it will go down, if it goes down, it's better if it hits the ground then water, engine ,radio equipment+ electronics are probably more expensive then the plane, they would instantly be damaged by water.

    3:35 is it climbing during a spin or is that a climbing spiral? Curious if the wings are stalled and the engine just has enough horsepower to keep it climbing. Looks like it's stalled.
