Impressive!

At a Jet Power event in 2019, this RC Antonov AN-225 took to the skies for a flight demonstration. It weighs 93.5 kg, has a wingspan of 5.80 m and length of approximate 5.30 m. With a total thrust of 47 kg, it’s massive and impressive. It’s also powered by 2x Behotec JB-180 / 4x 90er EDF 6s.

The workmanship is pretty awesome and it may be an expensive hobby but it’s clearly worth the time, money, and effort it took to build this thing.

And as for the Antonov An-225 Mriya, it’s a strategic airlift cargo aircraft used in the Soviet Union during the ’80s and is the heaviest aircraft ever built.
