Introducing my latest seaplane model, the PBY Catalina RC Plane! This versatile plane is designed to take off and land on both land and water, thanks to its detachable landing gear. While it may require some additional work to switch between land and water modes, it will fly beautifully either way due to its glider-like wing cube loading of only 4.9. With a wingspan of 2300mm and a flying weight of 3kg, I found it necessary to add extra weight to balance the CG when using 2 3S 2200mah lipo batteries.

This is my second A-10 Warthog RC model, and the first one that I've completed a build video, plans, and decals for. For this build, I used 6mm Depron foam or foamboard or polyfoam. While my first A-10 used a pusher prop motor, I wanted to try using EDFs this time around. However, I've had some bad experiences with EDFs in the past, so I went with 6S that already has a powerful thrust of about 2.5 kg on each unit. But, this came with a higher price tag and more weight. In fact, this is the heaviest model I've ever built, weighing in at 3.6 kg. I also added retractable landing gear and a smoke effect for its gun.

This Cartoon A6M Zero RC plane is a continuation of cartoon rc plane series after F4U Corsair. Unlike the Corsair model I will not post the build video on Babyplane channel anymore, from now on I will put future cartoon models on Julius Perdana channel. The cartoon series is a collaboration between my friend Hendi Susanto and me, I design the plans and he build the model for more frequent updates, hopefully. I also plan to make another series, that is park RC jet models that is not too big and easy to build in the future, while still making build video of my own build.

I have a request from one of you on my Berkik 3 flying wing video comment, it says to try adding landing gear on it, so this video is an answer to it, but instead using Berkik 3, I use B-2 Spirit model. This RC model plane also inspired by latest Freewing B-2 Spirit model and I enlarge it a bit to 2500mm. I always thought an RC B-2 Spirit is just an RC flying wing with landing gear, maybe just like a walking in the park, easy.

Actually I made this plane specifically for testing a homemade FPV cockpit with real control like control stick, throttle gauge and rudder pedals, but I feel like to release it on a separate video. This twin boom pusher RC plane is easy to build and also a very good flyer. You can use any motor from 35mm to 28mm (22mm) size motor, I use Racestar 2212 1400kv brushless motor with 8 inch prop.
