Thanks for the laugh Rob but I do know the dynamics of knife edge flight, I was being sarcastic with Al. So now we are flying our models in space to prove out your point? This is getting a little on the silly side. All I'm saying is that you guys seem to have the pre disposition that if you can't do it with your full scale aircraft then you can't do it with the models either. All I'm saying.

Al seems to think that every time rudder is applied it's going to result in a turn.

Now that we are flying in the space station as it orbits the earth. Once air born does the model slam into the wall because it is no longer moving with the station? Or does it move with the air in which it is flying?
