@SvenOkonomi Thanks for your comments. This plane flies about the way I would like it to. I like the steerable nose wheel because it makes take offs easier. Have you watched 30X UAV? I think it is the first movie listed (bottom of page). I'm presently completing a plane I started last fall which I call The Cat Fish (Der Wels). It is a little bigger and probably won't be near as fast.
lovin these little planes your coming up with great job
one thing the noise might be due to the prop stalling making that scratching skrechy sound open up yhe intake like the edf version so some air can get to the back of the prop just an idea might be wrong great vid 5*
This happens a lot on pushers because the flow of air to the prop is turbulent. If it were in clean air in would not make as much noise. The prop was tached at over 40,000 RPM and with the thin blades,turbulent air it makes that irritating sound. What would show the difference would be to make a tractor version using the same motor prop combo. It wouldn't be that hard to mod this design to do that. Thanks for your comments.
Awesome! Nice flying, too! Cool!

Good lord, get the bugzapper! That thing is awesome. Seems like it could do with a tiny bit more power though. Or lose the steerable nosegear. ;)
