R/C planes is one of my hobbies. After seeing that viral ad vid of the plane with one wing, I thought it was funny that this ACTUALLY happened:

Not a real plane, but it took some skill to get her down in one (remaining) piece!

BTW: The first time you let a real pilot try to fly an R/C plane on a simulator, they'll crash it every time, guaranteed! They are not used to flying a plane from an outside perspective with no instruments.

That is some amazing footage. It also shows that if you put on enough power, you can make a brick fly.:icon_lol:
