Vector Thrust ?????
Is it possible to use a vector thrusting exhaust vent system on a R/C turbine, or ducted fan?
I created an animation to demostrate the idea.

vectoring questions??
I am really looking forward to getting my Rookie and playing with this vectoring system. I have never felt the need to fly any of my models using gyro's before but I reckon I will be experimenting with a gyro on the Rookie's thrust vectoring.
The interesting thing to try with Tams idea is that with a gyro fitted OR quick thumbs (elevator/rudder mixed to vector).....vertical hovering maybe possible? Now that would be fun! good way to melt the winters ice off the strip as well! (Canadians take note)
- I will be painting mine white adding a Tam smoke system and calling it the
'Shuttle' : )

Vector Thrust ?????
Just got home from the shop. The Rookie Vector thrust pipe is ready to try out tomorrow. I'll get shop photos tomorrow at Woodland/Davis.
Time to get some ZZZ before 5:30am.
