World’s largest RC Concorde model! 🔥 📹: Chrissi RC

Love that the droop nose comes up. Amazing

The Aérospatiale/BAC Concorde (/ˈkɒŋkɔːrd/) is a retired Franco-British supersonic airliner jointly developed and manufactured by Sud Aviation (later Aérospatiale) and the British Aircraft Corporation(BAC). Studies started in 1954, and France and the UK signed a treaty establishing the development project on 29 November 1962, as the programme cost was estimated at £70 million (£1.39 billion in 2021). Construction of the six prototypes began in February 1965, and the first flight took off from Toulouse on 2 March 1969. The market was predicted for 350 aircraft, and the manufacturers received up to 100 option orders from many major airlines. On 9 October 1975, it received its French Certificate of Airworthiness, and from the UK CAA on 5 December. Concorde is a tailless aircraft design with a narrow fuselage permitting a 4-abreast seating for 92 to 128 passengers, an ogival delta wing and a droop nose for landing visibility. It is powered by four Rolls-Royce/Snecma Olympus 593 turbojets with variable engine intake ramps, and reheat for take-off and acceleration to supersonic speed. Constructed out of aluminium, it was the first airliner to have analogue fly-by-wire flight controls. The airliner could maintain a supercruise up to Mach 2.04 (2,170 km/h; 1,170 kn) at an altitude of 60,000 ft (18.3 km).

These remote controlled planes are great. They look like so much fun.

I could literally fit in that and say I've been on Concorde!

So much lift. Lived just south of Dulles airport in the early 90s. I can assure you the real ones didn't have such lift.

@SeasideChris

Can they not make a Protestant one ?

@HeartSongForte I’d require a cockpit camera on motion control with a VR headset.

@LienhardRacing Poke @Ccuny79 et @chcuny c'est autre chose qu'un tas de briquettes en plastique ;) ;) @NHoonited faut mettre un casque avec ce sifflement...
