kulpimssays...*wings
siftbotsays...Adding video to channels (Wings) - requested by kulpims.
CaptainObvioussays...So i have a silly question - how does it fly so slow, does it use some sort of air brakes? I think I briefly saw some odd looking extra flaps but I wasn't sure. Or is it not really flying slow and just seemed that way?
braschlosansays...*skillful ?
siftbotsays...Invocations (skillful) cannot be called by braschlosan because braschlosan is not privileged - sorry.
entr0pysays...Check out the very end at 2:08, that definitely ain't normal.

Stormsingersays...Not silly at all, if you've never been involved. Electric planes like this one tend to be extremely light...most of them under a couple of pounds, and some as little as a couple of ounces. At those weights, they don't have to move very fast to generate plenty of lift. [edit: looks like they're even lighter now, some are less than 1.25 oz]
The guy that got me into the hobby had an electric Cessna that couldn't be flown in winds faster than 6-7 mph, because the plane would have had a negative groundspeed when flying into the wind (that makes it awful hard to get back to the airfield).

Gilsunsays...Are you serious? Tearing up at the magnificent union of man and machine and the mastery of flight? I think you GAIN man points.
