Pretty amazing. You obviously can't stall that airplane. With its nose up,
it essentially becomes a helicopter. Can any real-life high-performers do
that?

Pointing straight up and acting like a helicopter has been done by a
full-size
acrobatic plane at airshows.

Have you guys seen this one? (R/C helicopter)

It's a little slow at first, but by the end...

Reminds me of my first lesson in a C-152. I might have overcontrolled a wee
bit.

That is the most incredible RC video I have ever seen, bar none...

Jay, you should consider putting that on your Web Pages. I know you have
nothing like it, but WoW!!!

I don't understand how a RC heli can do some of the things it does. For an
example, knife edge hovering? How can the blades possibly provide lift in
the horizontal vector? Beyond me!

If you look at the very page you linked to, three lines above the photo
is a much shorter link you can use.
