B29 and X1.

Adrian I saw that B29 with the X1 fly in West Palm Beach a couple of years ago, it's very impressive. One of the guys I work with flew over (real airplane ) to Lakeland (FL) a couple of weeks ago for a big jet RC event they had going on and said there were some very impressive machines there, one fella had an F-14 for sale with a price tag of $25k.

Don't crash!

Kewl, Rick. That B29(model) has a wingspan of something around 25-30ft! a person could fly in dat!

And I'm just struggling with my entry level single rotor hobby helicopter! That is some serious commitment to take it to that level.

I never saw a model like that gorgeous B-29 mothership and CY's Glamorous l'il guy. The B-29's wings look a bit wrong, aspect ratio or sweep of the leading edge, something. The engine nacelles appear out of proportion. In any case, wonderful.

What flying! An inverted roll! Super impressive.

2x6 the engine nacelles do look a little large but the wings look to be about right and very impressive just as you said.

I expected it to carpet bomb some vendor's tent.

Dats not a model, thats just a small airplane. Loved it.

I would hazard a guess and say the nacelles were made the size they are(and positioned slightly back in the wing compared to the real McCoy) due to the constraints of the chainsaw motors they are using.

Actually I've read that the engines are Zenoah 80's ... @ $880.00 per engine!

What rubber bands were too good for them? Phshaw!

Hi Rick
Fuselage a bit thick maybe. The B29 was the most graceful intercontinental dealer of destruction. The superfort was to bombers what the Spitfire was to fighters - most beautiful.
