Take a look at this 1/2-scale RC Tiger Moth! The 58 kg model is done up in French WW I Armée de L’air colors, it has impressive performance in the air. Unfortunately we couldn’t find any information on the plane or the pilot.
The Tiger Moth remained in service with the RAF until it was succeeded and replaced by the de Havilland Chipmunk during the early 1950s. Many of the military surplus aircraft subsequently entered into civil operation.

Many nations have used the Tiger Moth in both military and civil applications, and it remains in widespread use as a recreational aircraft in several countries. It is still occasionally used as a primary training aircraft, particularly for those pilots wanting to gain experience before moving on to other tailwheel aircraft.//Wikipedia
