Fast Forward Flight (10 mb)

Same thing just smaller and lower res
Fast Forward Flight (4 mb)
 
 
 

Taxing for the big first real flight


 
 

Turning into the wind

As you can see I set the turbine angle at  55-60 deg (90 is up and down)
The plan was to go to half power and as it passed me go to full and
take off.

At half power it quickly started rolling to around 20 mph. (wild guess)
and took off. I was NOT ready. It went strait down the runway
and was very controlable as the 4 fans were on.
I did not pull back much and the the climb out
was flat.

It took off so fast, I quit pulling on the elev and it stayed
fairly low but it was starting to accelerate. (still very slow)
Far slower than in Isobar on takeoff.
 

Here its doing around 60 mph (wild guess). Its very easy
to fly as its big and easy to see.
