Default ad on flying witch, lawnmower, tank, etc.

Yesterday there was a banner featuring a flying witch. The web site had rc flying sports car, lawnmower, tank, american flag, etc. I am unable to recover any info with various searches.
Can anyone point me to the website?

I'm just finishing the flying lawnmower. Easy build. Make sure you get the included graphics for sure!

Putting a rudder on mine with a Saito 91 (calls for 46-60 2 st). I'm going to perform world's first tail touch with it!

We'll actually a handle touch.

I'll post pics when it's all done.

To STLpilot.... Nice photo. What is the wing span, cord less ailerons, aileron chord, and wing thickness? Where does the rudder mount. What size and shape is it? Size and location? Does the handle provide any kind of control? Thanks

Looks like you just need to check out their website to get all those answers, I don't know all those numbers off hand.

www.flyingthingz.com

The handle is going to give it some lift for sure. It's got a slight postive angle of attack on it. So does the top of the black dummy engine compartment.

The rudder I'm putting it on the back in the middle. Just making it out of coroplast, sinking it down into the foam withe epoxy like in this pic. That is the basic shape I'm using, but prolly will make it as tall as it can go under the dummy engine housing. Cutting a slot in the coroplast for the hinge. Then using a pull pull wire. There is a servo for the main wheel already there for you ... might as well put it to more use and only costing me about $5 more for the pull pull rig. The wing is fun fly shaped and now with a big strong rudder it's going to hopefully hover and 3D well ... we'll see!

I was supposed to have this done a while back, hope to get it flying real soon!

To STLPilot..........Have you flown your mower yet? I would like to read a report, especially on your rudder addition. I'm set to test my SPAD mower this weekend. I'm expecting a wild ride since I had to guess at all of the dimensions. My yard lawn mower was not much help since it does not fly. Ha, Ha.
