LOL @ Julian falling over ! very comical

Yeah, stock motor and fan Sheldon and yes does have vectored thrust. Small elevator and rudder inside back of the thrust tube. More power is needed really. You can see on the second attempt that stock power does not allow to pull out of the harrier. Hear what you say about some members...this was Julian's F16 and its had a long life...its more epoxy than foam now...but still flies great. Even after that crash it flew 5 minutes later minus the intake which Julian inadvertently ripped off. Cheers.

Hey Dominic... Is this the stock motor/esc. It also looks like you have vectored thrust on this. Those things look like fun... i might have a go;) It's good that you can laugh about that. I would, but if i was catching a club member's plane and it broke they would not laugh... Most of them are OK, but some are just a bit too 'disciplined'
