VERY nice... I am impressed. I tried RC planes. I KNEW I was in trouble when I heard the first rule of RC planes:
Taking off is optional Landing is MANDATORY |

Unreal control, I didn't know airplanes were supposed to hover.

Holy shit.....
I bet that guy could write his name on the wall if that plane had a pen attached to it. How the hell could anyone have such control over that, even with years of practice? |

makes me wonder if real planes could pull off that hover move.

Some can, but only for a moment, the aerobatic guys work the clutch in and out. Gravity or thrust must take over when a plane tries to hover. There is no lift created, only thrust in a real plane. With the RC it is power to weight you can milk in enough power to get rid of the weight and offset the gravity. I seen guys dip tail's in water and pop ballons at my flying club. |

Ah, the Austin Powers theme. Good ol' cheesy 60's music.
I wonder if that plane has a vectoring propeller. Sometimes it seems as if it's not traveling fast enough to do those stunts otherwise. |

It doesn't it doen't have enything special just about 3x its weight in thrust. |

Also, to fly and land that slowly, and turn that sharply the plane must be built very very light. Very light wing loading.

I did not do well with RC planes as a hobby.
After my second "flying stick" wound up as a smoldering pile of balsa wood, melted electronics, and flaming fuel, I decided to spend my $300 a month hobby money on more durable investments. (Like ammo!) |

So is that plane electric? Anyone have specs on the model or whatever?

Ask Sean D. Tucker...He'd be glad to show you how it's done in a Pitts bi-plane. |

But only for a few seconds, it just isn't as easy in a full scale airplane to find a motor that is light enough AND make the kind of power needed. The Oracle plane flown by Whane Handly was about as close as it got, but a flame out of the tubine left him a little short one day, actually Mr Handley is about 2 inches shorter than he used to be. |

Thrust to weight ratio... R/C airplanes can have amazing thrust for their weight. Not very likely in a real airplane... I know a guy at work that is into R/C stuff... he can hover several of his planes. Just takes some practice. (and some repairs sometimes!) |

Did a little digging for you guys that want the details.
The guy flying that posted in this topic, www.rcuniverse.com/forum/m_3599718/mpage_2/tm.htm Tells what the airplane is and there are some recomendations on what to get if you are looking. BTW you can't purchase thumbs like his. |
