nice wing strike!

I noticed that it seems to have plenty of thrust. The B-17 was never known for being a STOL airplane... lol :) That 8 foot roll to take-off was great !!!

@sbs9026 because of the head wind buddy

[sbs9026]

@jmillsf18 - Thank for the heads-up there Buddy....

Wow that cameraman dosnt know when to shut up

[railfanWV]

This would have been much more enjoyable without the running commentary.

[eclipser2004]

Wow it's big. Good job with that wind. I would guess sitting still on the ground pointed into a 15 mph wind it is almost flying anyway.

Well done guys love the second landing great job with the wind.Does the wing come off for transportation? If it does how much work is it. Thanks for video, Todd

would it be able to put a fpv camera in it?

[WarbirdFan66]

very nice flight guys...great bird

[gonadus]

Well done. What I appreciate the most is the energy drink can that you put in front of it to give some aspect as to scale. It's a huge foamy. Thanks.

[rtkendig]

So what is your flight time with the batts you used? Also did you check to see the watts and amp draw? lastly did you try any rolls or loops, how was the handling? Thanks

[thebighead93]

Very nice!!

Nice to see this bird can handle some wind. Got my father one of these. Wing is glued and drying as I write. Hope to maiden this weekend. Thanks for sharing
