Brett Jones Posted October 14, 2011 Share Posted October 14, 2011 All i can say is wow, 285g for a 2 metre wingspan impressive, i read that the main part of the fuselage is filled with helium. i want one. could not get the video to insert. managed it in the end, also copied and pasted his name but it did not copy correctley Edited By Brett Jones on 14/10/2011 19:38:22 Edited By Steve Hargreaves - Moderator on 29/12/2012 12:24:56 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony Smith 7 Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 That's an amazing bit of flying, he's just about brushing the roof trusses at one point, and look how close it passes the pillar at 1:26 and 3:04 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Cotsford Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 there is something very freaky and wierd about an airliner flying indoors! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terry Walters Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 I'm not usually interested in indoor flying but.....respect! Thanks Brett Terry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brfc7 Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 That's some very impressive flying. Model's not that nice to look at though baz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WolstonFlyer Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 Very interesting, it looks like it flies far too slow for the wing size.Much of the fuse looks a bit wrinkley, I wonder if it is a foil baloon? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Concorde Speedbird Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 It has helium in it I think from research. Still quite impressive! CS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WolstonFlyer Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 I wonder how much lift the helium gives? It cannot be very much considering the volume available, although every bit of lift must help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
avtur Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 As others have said ...wow! The slow flying is amazing, sounds as though the helium is helping to provide some lift, also notice it was flying with some flap most of the time so that would help, quite a sight!

It cannot be very much considering the volume available, although every bit of lift must help. 40g apparently.
