Flying James Bond’s Ride!

Flying James Bond’s Ride!

Gernot Bruckmann flew his latest scratch-built project, this 66% Bede BD-5 J at Jet Power last week, and here’s the video to prove it! This large scale model of the worlďs smallest jet takes advantage of its low weight (53 pounds!) to really put on a show. The 136-inch-span turbine-powered jet is 100 inches long. We think James Bond has some serious competition from Gernot, who’s a world-champion RC pilot and owns GB-Models!  Our thanks to YouTube’s Bunterfisch for taking this great video at Jet Power and sharing it with us.
