    Lovely; I don't know if I could spend the time to build a plane like that, then fly it I did it once long ago, and the crash was ugly

    two very nice clips.
    Was that the Guillows B24? or another of your own designs?.
    Either way your endless stream of skills is truly awe inspiring.

    Those aircrafts look nice. I'm working in 4 planes, between 1/48 and 1/72. Plastic models. Non flying. But still great
    Thanks

    Very nice. I remember rubber band planes when I was a kid but they were nothing like that. Thanks for the post.

    Imagine a hand grenade pin holding each prop from turning, slip a long dowel through all the rings, you can see me pulling the rod in the video at the launch, all four props are freed at the same instant, and as all four have the same windings/torque, we have a close sync! It is also quite fun to do!
