Default Red Hot Pilot

If you think you are a good pilot check this out.

This is truly amazing...............wish I had the talent of the flyer
of this model.................


This needs a fast computer, so don't go here unless you do. This is
some fantastic flying even for a model.

Can some of us not-so-hot pilots check it out too? :-)

So, if you want to be a good pilot, listen to more Enya?

No, you get a plane with incredibly low mass and an impossibly-high
thrust-to-weight ratio. Overplayed new-age music optional.

The pilot's pretty good, but the airplane is amazing.

All the components--battery, motor, receiver, speed controller and three
servos--must be wonderfully small and light. The battery capacity is
impressive, too. Electric motor powered RC has come a long way since I
left the hobby 10 years ago.

Yes, there have been big advances in electric RC the last few years.
Small electric motors ("speed 400" being the most common), tiny
recievers and electronic speed controls, and most significent, the
lithium polymer battery.

Knew you guys would enjoy the technology and pilot technique.

No way could I have done what he did even even with his airplane and
I'm not a bad flier.

I am practicing with mine, but no where that skill level!

My model weighs 7.5 oz all up with 4 channel controls, has 2.5 X as
much thrust as weight, and with the li-po battery can hover for 10+
minutes or tear up the gym for 20+ minutes on a single charge..

We have come a long way!
