Mike Gross Sr.'s Fokker D.VII - A 1/3-scale WW I masterpiece
When it comes to RC scale and warbirds, one guy who had done it all is Mike Gross Sr. Mike has worked at Nick Ziroli Giant Scale Plans for years, and he has been an active pilot, builder, designer and competitor for decades. At the recent Long Island Skyhawks Dawn Patrol, Mike’s newest build was a 1/3-scale Fokker D.VII and as with all of his past projects, this one was over the top.

VQ Warbirds Tiger Moth This Little Bird Is A Ball To Fly!
The Tiger Moth, or “Moth” as it is affectionately called, is a gentle-flying biplane that has been popular with military and private pilots since the early 1930s. I have flown various-size Moths, and I cannot think of an easier-flying, more forgiving, or more stable machine.

The Best Products We've Tried And Tested This Year
Each year, the Model Airplane News editors collaborate to select the products and models of the past year that deserve special recognition. We have the enviable job of trying out an amazing array of airplanes and drones and a plethora of related accessories and products from the RC hobby, and each year, dozens of products are reviewed on the pages of our magazine. We evaluate design, construction, and—most of all—performance. So after much thought, consideration, and debate, here are this year’s winners.
