Default Mountain Models Tantrum

The Tantrum has been designed from the ground up as an all out 3D performer. Weighing in at 12-13ounces AUW (with LiPolys) and with a wing loading of 5-6 oz/sq ft, the Tantrum will do amazing maneuvers in a small area.

Let's see if we can guess who this is hovering the Mountain Models Tantrum.

Hint: If its hovering for more than a few seconds...it's not me!

Jason,

The video is still in the camera. The, uh, pilot in question did some prety cool things with the Tantrum like rudder touches, etc, all very close to the ground. He even took out an A-10 but I didn't get that on video.

I'll try to find time to edit the video down to something usable but I've been really busy lately with my latest project.

Greg, thanks for the post. Stop by my booth at NEAT and take the Tantrum for a spin.

Oh!

I remember you talking about the mid air with the A-10.
I'll see if I still have that email.
