Blake & Kelly: It moves pretty good with the Brison, maybe 80 - 85 MPH, which would be 30% scale like. I'm just guessing here, it might be doing 90 ? The R-2's more aerodynamic shape would probably be faster.

Blake, I did modify the landing gear and suspension system. I did not go for the idea of the wheel pants being hard mounted to the underside of the wing. If the wheels move around seperately, inside the wheel pants, you are looking at potential binding. My Mod allows the wheels and the pants to move together, thereby eliminating any binding.
