R/C......to the max......

Postby Rifleman » Wed Mar 30, 2005 8:55 pm

I know this is a bit far fetched for some to believe, but there has been a new development in indoor R/C flying that should blow the socks off anyone interested in R/C flying at all...........

OMFG!

That is the weirdest thing I have ever seen...absolutely, totally off the wall.

That forces you to reconsider everything you know about aerodynamics, don't it?

That's not really flying, that's more like shoving a chunk of wood that's shaped like a plane around the sky....

Always have loved RC indoor 3D aerobatics  ;D. Looks like a folding prop on the front of the plane. I thought, from reading RC Model World, that this had been around for a while? ???

I thought it was a reversable elctric motor. The fact that its adjustable pitch makes it even more amazing.

I thought reversible pitch props had been out for a while, but I dunno about reversing in the air. Pretty cool though.

Wow, I can't wait to get home and see what you guys are talking about!  LOL  Probably wouldn't be best to look at it here in the hospital. ;)
Great edit, Bob.
