Sorry, I just don't want to see you get in trouble. About the only thing you can legally use this radio for is another R/C airplane.
Your post? That must be some sort of joke that I can't see, right?

-If not, then send the FCC after George Lucas, because he used a Kraft radio control model airplane system to control R2D2 in the first Star Wars movie!

Dude, these things get used all the time for other purposes! Getting in trouble with the FCC for something like this is about as likely as getting a ticket for doing 56 mph in a 55 mph zone- it isn't going to happen. Besides- what makes you think that a radio control turkey isn't a radio control model airplane? Turkeys fly, just like airplanes. Just because his model airplane is 100% underpowered doesn't mean that it isn't a model airplane.
