I have to say that thrust vectoring is a really good idea if you want to out do the "foamies" or trick out your favorite. I have seen a video similar to the parkflyer thrust vectored jet and it was past insane. I would say if you wanted to thrust vector, go with an electric engine as there is no vibration to kill a servo. The reason why the standard servo was "killed" was the vibration probabaly caused a few gear teeth to strip... for saftey go with a metal geared as they are stronger but more money (alot cheaper though than a trip to the MD because your nitro engine got a good hit at ya) I would love to see any pics of thrust vectored planes... happy thrust vectoring, mini T
