Yeah Vtol Man........show us some more pics of that contraption. I thought that thing was in forward flight until I saw the smoke trail going straight down. Then I said what the hell is that!?!?!?!?

That thing looks like something even ChuckAuger could hover!!!

Couple more. My burrito gets the job done, on the other side of the runway. And my 33% edge in about the lowest hover I have had it in! But when the weather warms up it will get violated too.

Gordo,

The pic was taken from a video so I could snap it at just the right spot.
the vid was VERY tounge in cheek regarding the #9 rule.

Have a look.

Here's a couple of pics of my TurboRaven hovering at about the lowest I have hovered a .40 size profile yet...... These are at about roof level (you'll have to take my word for it ).

Yesterday kicked a$$. Only 4 other pilots at the field yesterday all day, no wind, and never had to give up the Freq pin.

After all the foamy hovering I have been doing, I am easily hovering my Half-Wit inches off the ground, and I am pulling the Raven down very low (for me).

Two taken indoors. The grey one is me doing a chip hyde impression although prolly not the best one! The plane is a E-sledge, the other is Jeff violating me with his own design extra.
