Here's a 7 minute video of a Cessna SkyMaster's maiden flight. This particular plane is made of CorPlas and is powered by two Ryobi 31 cc weedwacker conversion engines.

  • Yes indeed, my RC partner in crime did exactly. Abby Normal comes from the movie Young Frankenstein.

  • Oh yes, every bit of it and possibly more. We aren't entirely sure why that is but the original pilot made several attempts at take off and it finally did go. I tried taking it up a few weeks later and couldn't keep it straight enough down the runway plus the engines weren't making enough power that day either so I never did get a chance to fly it. The first test pilot said it took nearly all his skills to keep Abby flying (and he's one of the best in the club).

  • No, Des Moines Iowa.

  • The pilot said it was a fun challenge while flying it.
