14 lbs thrust in a 12 lb airframe? Might be scale in flight but dosent sound like much fun diving to gain speed to pull a loop
With a thrust to weight ratio greater than 1:1, why would you need to dive to gain speed to do a loop? 14 lbs of thrust means it's going to have enough pull to take a 12 lb airplane straight up!
