Are there any giant plane/helis/jets (rc only) that are commercially available?

min: 1/2 scale (that must be humongous!)

Yep, Bill Hempel sells a 50% Edge, 50% Extra, and 50% Cub ARF. Not many of them are flying electric (this is the giant scale electrics forum, FWIW).

You would need some serious motor to get one of those in the air.

Have you seen the cri cri? I've heard about a guy that flew it to an airshow, got off, placed servos for rc and flew, removed servos and flew back home with the cri cri. It's like 10-20K though.....

Looks like even 100% scales can fly electric.
