Actual jumbo jets have been controlled remotely for testing purposes. It may (I very much doubt) be the largest aircraft purpose built to be controlled solely by remote rather than adapted from being piloted. Actually, I think NASA themselves had some kind of atmospheric research aircraft built along the lines of a giant ultralight that was over 100 feet in wingspan.
