RE: Hangar 9 Twist 3D

He ended up pulling the firewall out of it. He was hovering nicely and decided to see just how fast it will pull out and gave it full throttle. It was a site to see the engine go vertical and the...

RE: Hangar 9 Twist 3D

This plane is very flyable on MAX throws. I no longer own one, went to the bigger F90, but I really wrung mine out when I had it. I gave it all the throws it could do with CA hinges and at times, at...
