RC Model

The Giant and The Swift

Here we have a short article and videos about the world’s largest model RC Airplane and the world’s fastest model RC Plane.

World’s Largest RC Airplane

This is the largest model RC Airplane I’ve ever seen. Built by three men from Belgia, this bad giant holds the Guinness Book of World Records for largest RC plane of model RC planes! It has a span of 8.9m, 4 X 160cc engines; it weighs about 210 kg and is built on a scale of 1/5 of the B29.

This Radio Controlled Airplane is so big it takes three people to fly it!

On 26 January 2010, at the 2nd International Cup for RC Jets, Guinness World Records was present in Santo Domingo in the Dominican Republic to award the Guinness World Records certificate for the fastest remote controlled jet powered model aircraft (RC). During the presentation of the 2nd International Cup for RC Jets, to happen in Santo Domingo from 29 to 31 January, Guinness World Records Adjudicator, Carlos Martinez, awarded the new world record to Axel Haché (Dominican Republic) and David Shulman (USA), the two pilots who flew their Radio Controlled model to maximum speeds of 542.64 Km/h (293 Knots or 337.18 mph).

The record attempt had recently taken place on 18 January at the Hobbyland Airfield, also in Santo Domingo. There downwind and upwind speeds were taken to eliminate the influence of the wind amongst other factors.

Well, that covers the tops of RC Model Airplanes. Maybe we should add more info about the tops of RC Boat and RC Truck, but let’s save it for later.

  1. Radio controlled hobbyists are growing in number day by day. With the huge range of radio controlled trucks, cars, helicopters, planes and tanks now available the sky is the limit. New improved models are constantly being released to enable greater control and ability to move in more intricate ways. I am amazed at what some of these things can do compared to the early radio controlled models.

  2. By far the most concise and up to date information I found on this topic. Sure glad that I navigated to your page by accident. I’ll be subscribing to your feed so that I can get the latest updates. Appreciate all the information here

    This is something I have always wanted to do.

    I would be great if there was some more detailed information as to how these guys were able to get their jet to go so fast.

    Good job.
