I thought I'd go ahead and post some pics of my C-130. This kit was given to me by a retired Coast Guard Captain that used to fly C-130s. I am a retired Coast Guard C-130 Flight Engineer myself. 3 years ago one of my friends was the Flight Engineer on the Coast Guard 1705 that had a midair and went down off of the California coast. All the crew in both aircraft were lost. I did the model in the 1705 markings as a tribute to the crew. I still have to paint the windows and other small details, but the plane is pretty much done. I have about 25 flights on her so far. Electric powered, and I drop paratroops out of the back.

A beautiful aircraft Aaron, This is certianally one I have an intrest in some day. (alond with many others on my list of airplanes to build) 

Im glad you shared it with us.

Care to post the specs? ie motor size, wing length....

Mike

Wing span is 103" , motors are turnigy 4250 600kv(equivalent to .32 glow motors), Turnigy 60 amp speed controls, (4)Turnigy nano tech 4 cell 2650mah. I made the 4 blade props out of two, two blade 11X8 props. The plane was designed by Skip Mast a long time ago. The fuselage is fiberglass, the wings and horizontal stab are foam core balsa sheeted, then fiber-glassed. The plane flies like a big trainer.

Nice Rich. The plane is a big hit at the airshows. Everybody seems to have a story associated with the C-130, and the kids love it when the troops come out of the back.
