Some Hope for my DHL R/C Jumbo 747
After losing hope of flying my giant DHL 747, I finally got some encouragement online. I tried searching Google and YouTube for videos of this plane flying. After hours, I found out that it’s being sold in the US under Estes-Cox and sold in the Philippines under Dickie-Spielzeug. FYI, this plane comes in two models - Air Force One and DHL. I got the DHL model and the videos below are of the Air Force One model. They’re the same except for paint job.
Video #1 - Not really that easy to get it flying.
As you can see, he had to throw it from an elevated plane to give the plane some room to build lift. But do I really have to? If that’s the case then I’d have to fine such a place first but more searches on YouTube showed that in can fly even on flat plains.

There you go. I guess I’ll just have to give this plane another try when I find time.
