discussion Bit of Indoor flying anyone?

When indoor flying is mentioned I think of microfilm covered, elastic band powered light as a feather models - but times have changed as you will see on this video.

Dave that is great ! thanks for sharing this with us,this gave me an idea how about synchro-aerobatics to classical music with small electric models ? the skill shown in that video is stunning,prop hanging,scraping wingtips and what about that twirl !!!

While on the subject of modelling videos Al's Models has a selection of videos some of which are very good. I especially enjoyed the jets and the large scale Zero with a fine sounding rotary engine. In the MIG video have a look at the speed of movement of the tail end control surfaces during the pre-takeoff test, it must have some very good, and expensive, servos to get that sort of speed – mind you they probably need to be that fast at the speeds that these models fly.

See them here and look in the 'Various Videos' album.
