GIANT RC Grumman HU-16 ALBATROSS Flying Boat (1:6.5 scale, 4.8m wingspan, twin 62cc Zenaoh engines)
John Greenfield latest scratch built radio controlled model aircraft was flown at its first public event at North London Model Flying Clubs Scale Day. This model weighs ~42KG and is powered by two Zenoah 62cc engines. The wingspan is an impressive 4.8 metres. John took 1 year to build the model and a further year to design and engineer the undercarriage. He hopes to fly it off water in the near future!

What a looker, an absolute beaut.

[@BobbyTucker]

Such a beautiful aircraft, my compliments to the builder and the Pilot, very professionally done. I especially enjoyed the slo-mo fly-by, it gave me an opportunity to visually inspect the quality workmanship of the undercarriage and the landing gear. Very impressive. Thank you for sharing.

Do you also have a video of it taking off or landing in water? ~ 42 kg is quite heavy indeed.

How does this plane perform on water?

[@LuizFernando-pj4rp]

What a shame there wasn’t a lake next to the field so it could have ended with a water landing. Nice plane!

[@danielburgess7785]

Zenoah, not Zenaoh

[@MauriatOttolink]

Where's he going to put it down..A flying boat on grass?
