I'd be interested in the physics of flying at ninety degrees to horizontal, that might require JD's expertise.

My money is on shear horsepower. [biggrin]

He'd fly straight in to a job with Boeing atm.

Yep, that and the tail rudder actually provides lift for the arse end when it’s lying on its side.

Depends on which axis you're considering.

surely. I feel a little better now.

The wrong fish bit. [biggrin]

The rudder is used to direct the thrust vector where it's required. It's obviously got oodles of thrust. This one and the triplane make me wonder why a person would put so much effort into a model when it's so close to the size of an aircraft he could actually fly. The negative-G maneuvers would be far more impressive if they were flown by someone actually being subjected to them.

I feel like buying one just for the Windscreen sticker..
