Default Bad weather? Fly in the basement!!

Hi gang --

I don't have any information about the clip, but some of you may find it interesting. The guy is flying an electric in his basement -- with some of the bad weather up north, I suppose it is an alternative -- I am confident if I tried it, neither the plane nor basement would survive.

The clip is about 5.6 MB.

Now there is a guy that should be in the TOC if he isn't already. That was quite a show.

Only in my dreams do I have a basement where there is enough room to try that. In reality "Stuff" fills every nook and cranny like a dance exercise between Chaos and Entropy theories.

But the model gives me a good idea for a place to put my soon to be R/C'ized VA.... I like the idea of the side spines to help form a structurally sound profile type fuselage.

Yup, the kid's from Germany and does a show with the big plane on the floor in the video that's unreal. Makes me SICK! He has absolutely automatic control in all axes at all times and a very creative style. You see him fly and wonder "What the heck am I doing messing around with model airplanes." []
