The Comparative Aircraft Flight Efficiency (CAFE) Foundation has been selected by NASA to conduct an annual flight competition - The Personal Air Vehicle (PAV) Centennial Challenge. This $250,000 technology prize competition is a 5-part flight contest, designed to bring forth a new class of quiet, efficient, environmentally friendly and easy-to-operate personal air vehicles that will extend convenient air travel to a greatly expanded segment of the American public. The 2007 PAV Challenge will be staged August 4 -- August 11 at the CAFE Flight Test Center at Sonoma County's Charles M. Schulz Airport.
Nice video, yes, would love to hear CJ give specifics on handling.
The rest of posters: GO TO TIME OUT RIGHT NOW. YOU MAY NOT COME OUT UNTIL DINNER. YOU MUST LEARN TO PLAY NICE OR NO FLYING FOR YOU!

Again, thankyou for yet another wasted chance to offer anything to the discussion. And no welcome is necessary, I was on the internet whilst you still had peach fuzz on your nuts, get some time up pup.

I am a pilot, not a test pilot and I am an A&P. But thank you for your interesting and informative response which actually added absolutely nothing to the discussion.

You are no pilot, yet alone test pilot and certainly not a 'professional' at anything.

I find your outburst very disappointing too. It's just a clip. You can read the rave over on the right and go and look at the association if you want.
Instead you decided to make yourself look foolish.
Choices, choices.

those were examples geez how much do I have to explain this ha-ha. if you get the concept then you would see he was keeping the nose up with rudder, it was not sloppy uncoordinated flying.

Yes I have heard of top rudder and am familiar with the concept. but that turn we are talking about in this video wasn't any knife edge, or slow roll, etc....

Have you ever heard of top rudder? when you're knife edge the rudder acts as an elevator.
like in a slow roll? 4 point roll? 8 point roll?
