Funny you ask because I have trouble with details and can't remember any of them exactly. I should write a note so I'd remember when I got home. Lol I want to say the 3D is an edge 540. I really have only been into planes for a year and a half and don't know much regarding brands and such

No probs Ken, I was just curious of what they were, that last one looked a big plane. Great how it was just hovering vertically.

They are available from http://www.3dhobbyshop.com He did say they don't piece things out well. If you bust a wing you have to buy an entire rebuild kit, you can't just get the wing.

Awesome flight videos, Ken! Impressive models, no doubt! 3D Hobby Shops are not cheap. Very good quality! On top of all that, they are 100% gorgeous!!!

New flying club. This is Steve, been flying 30 years. Loves jets and flies the big 90" long fuselage size. Not sure what that's called. Here is Steve flying one of his smaller jets. This one is an electric 6 cell. Forgot the name/type of the plane

Steve is very smooth. Used to fly a lot of pylon racing and of course flying the big jets.

Once again I didn't get the model of the plane (duh). It is a warbird with retractable landing gear and has flaps. Doug is the treasurer of my flying club.
