R/C Turbine SR-71 BlackBird Prototype Test Flight 3

1/8th Scale SR-71 Test Flight #3
This is still a prototype, and not finished. That is why it's got rough looking fixed landing gear, no inlet spikes, and no finish yet. Initial flight functions are still being tested, and all those items will be implemented in time. You can find full details of the project at: http://www.mmrca.org/lance

[SledDriver13]

Thanks. I'll probably just keep it posted here. Next week, I'll get an update to the build web site, and reference back here to the video, for those that have been following along on the build over the years.
