The new Escale Waco is a state-of-the-art brushless motor-powered 4-channel scale aircraft available as a nearly fully-equipped model without Transmitter or receiver.
Flying
At 39" span this is most definitely not a small, twitchy model. In the air or on the ground, handling is impeccable, smooth and entirely suitable for newcomers.
Even taxi-ing is well-mannered with none of the taildragger nastiness sometimes found in scale models. Open the throttle and you can be off the deck in just a few feet and then throttled back for a slow and lazy circuit in front of your fellow pilots. Approach and landings are as solid as mom's apple pie - you won't get any fluffiness on approach here!
With standard throws, rolls are classically long and lazy, but increase the aileron throw and things are still predictable - just more lively!
If you pass the transmitter around down at the flying field; be prepared to wait a while to get it back!
