ummmn, that thing is bloody huge!

very cool, especially when the X1 rocket fires up; about the only thing missing was toggling a load of miniature 500 pounders, then fending off an attack from three r/c Ki-84's...

Heck Lynn, I can't keep the darn thing running long enough to even attempt an outside loop! But I do have an inverted ribbon cut planned for it after we are flying again...you want to be one of the guys to hold the poles for us? :shock: Hehehehehe.
