Looking at these new aircraft that Boeing and Lockeed are putting out these days with that ever so popular Thrust vectoring technology that will revolutionize the flight envelope for jet aircraft. My one question is, has anyone done this with a model? This would be great because it could open the field of 3D flight to Jets, right?

The Rookie uses thrust vectoring. I think the Eurosport has that option too...?

the harpoon as well

Cool stuff, how effective are they? Enough to have manueverability greater than that of conventional control surfaces??

I have no idea what planes these are, the idea just popped into my head(thrust vectoring)---im not familiar with these models; i fly 3D and have never become familiar with the jet world, do you have links to these jets, they have peaked my interest!!!!

heres a couple of clips of ,a hot spot with big turbine and pitch only thrust diverter ,and a roo with 4 way pipe,,i beleive...............http://www.voy-tech.net/Videos/other/P1603D.wmvhttp://www.voy-tech.net/Videos/other/vectorroo.avi

not links, but i got the vids. Thats amazing that it works as well as it does. I know in the full scale planes the materials for the actual vectoring devices have to be made of a super heat resistant material. This is the same video that is on flyingcirkus, but i didnt realize that it had thrust vectoring tech on it!
