Bill Crane`s Charybdis .40 !
* I`ll post more details if I receive them......... However.in the meantime....
* As I understand it Bill has up to 4 channels, and can you imagine being able to "hover"
this huge grass cutter with throttle control!!
* In this montage, prepared by Bill, you can follow the flight beginning with the launch from a tri-pod shaft...
* Without R/C control, the Charybdis will normally just rise vertically until exhausting its fuel,
then autorotating to the ground.
* Uncontrolled direction of flight would be somewhat dictated by the wind direction..
* With throttle and some roll / pitch control, Bill is striving to control the elevation/hovering of the model.
