Flying Under Stockholm

[MA-Caver]

The challenge was to do the impossible, fly a huge aerobatic RC-plane under Stockholm through a 3.9km long tunnel called Södra länken.

The plane is 80" wide and weighs 13lb. The mighty electric motor provides 22lb of thrust and a top speed close to 120mph.

I dunno about you guys but that was pretty cool... note the operator of the plane wore a helmet with the face shield down (probably using the force) ... probably to conceal his ident. I imagine that sort of stunt is just as illegal there as it would be here.

Yah, but then again a lot of practice and keeping it reasonably level inspite of the tunnel turbulence isn't too shabby...

I'm impressed ... other than by the appalling 'music' in the tunnel section :yeuk: :lol:.

I was not complaining, I was just saying some nice crashes would also be nice to see.
