I found this video at a Swedish forum. Think it looks realy cool.
You might have seen it but I couldnt find it here at RcUniverse.

Where did you find this?? Website ect
Do you know anything about the plane's power system?
Is he using a reversible prop (heli tail rotor system maybe), or is he using a reversible speed control??
Whatever he is using, it’s very cool!!

I don't know what he is using but I´ve asked him and waiting for a reply. The url to the site is [link=http://www.svensktmodellflyg.se/]www.svensktmodellflyg.se[/link]

I will say it again, that is very cool!!
Are you familiar with that motor and does it come with the hole in the shaft for the pitch rod??
How much does that system add to the total weight??
I am going to have to try one!!

Scott Foster had this setup at the JR Indoor Electric Festival. His was Ikarus Eco 8 tail rotor on an AXi. Fly RC had an article about it. The first motor he did was a Typhoon micro 6. Hobby Lobby is suppose to carry the setups when they begin production. My frieds saw him fly in Columbus, and talked to him. He was willing to others have a try at flying it. Sounded like had a problem with the shaft wearing out.

While very cool, this confirms my theory regarding backwards flight.
Ive long thought that reverse flight for extended time was a aerodynamic physics impossibility with our current aircraft set-up.
However, I think if a plane was designed as below, reverse flight would be possible. Please excuse the rough sketch. The canards on both ends would have to move entirely. Ive not yet figured out how the yaw would be manipulated.

Good find, I posted this a couple of days ago in the 3D forum.

Well, Its official then......5D flying is here.
Whats next.....6D? Perhaps a shocky with a tail rotor.....hmmmmm....
Might make some VERY interesting flatspin manuvers.
