Managed to record a bit of a tv program today.

This is a, I don't know, maybe 50-60 old guy who builds RC models as a hobby. Not just any models, though.

These are big, detailed, fully designed and built by himself. In cockpits, all knobs that turned do turn, all switches can be turned and so on.

Here's the tv program, the bit I managed to catch:

78 MB, Divx 5.11

50 MB, WMV

It's in Finnish but you'll see the models. He's right now building a Lysander and previously he has built a Gladiator, Brewster and dunno what. Next he is planning to do Dragon Rapide or perhaps a Me 109.

Wasn't remote controlled though.
