What is your thrust to weight? Can you throw it by hand and still take off?

Just might be. LOL

Greenace. . . I have no idea about thrust to weight as I am still waiting on batteries. . . . I don't think I will be throwing this one. Honestly I have never figured out thrust to weight. . . . I am more of a "Fly it and see what happens kinda guy"

Well, I'd update my time because I actually beat it.....but it was a fricking crazy flight. My lawmate 1.2Ghz rx is getting sketchy thanks to riding around in my truck for a month and I lost video at 1 mile when I did the turnaround. I'll have to re-do it and hopefully on a not so windy day. At full throttle on the return trip I had to hold full right elevon to keep it from rolling left thanks to a broken epp winglet, the uhf antenna out there, and torque roll. Lol....on second thought, I should make this plane a little better and use a different vrx before I attempt it again.

Go for it man! I will update the time on the personal bests thread. I have recently secured a 140mph funjet...just need to get a new battery. Landing is going to be a serious challenge though because it doesn't slow down at all lol. I need to put a parachute on it or something.

Servo actuated thrust reversers. Flip a switch, the reversers snap shut, blast full throttle. Just be close to the ground when you do it.
