Default RE: Vectored Thrust

Mark P,

Even with all the power of the 10x, I could not figure out how to effectively do that.

Mark Pokwlzikiachuckamanic (wocket),

I'm not that good a pilot

But for the few seconds that I accidentally got it to hover, those that had good enough eyes to have seen it do it, told me it was awesome!

I don't know how Wolfgang was getting the airplane to do what it did in that video, and that video was only a few seconds long. I tried a few times, and the system with gyros and without is so unstable, that hovering did not seem to me to be something that was repeatable.

I still fly the airplane on occasion, and with over 30 lbs of thrust, it is a rocket ship no doubt.
