BD-5J with the thrust-line issue fixed: engine at the bottom of the fuselage.. One of the best lookin’ BD-5Js IMO. Powered by an Allison 250 I think. Has anyone successfully built one with a V or Y tail?? I think tip-tanks would look good on it with that ‘50’s jet straight wing action. Why...

I’ll take an Me-163 2 seater..

UPS stole Rob Dahm’s 4 rotor..

Whaaat?! Is this a kit built Zero?!?! I NEED!! I don't have a FB account, where can I find out more about this Zero?!

Aren't all-flying horizontal stabs usually smaller in area? The VP-1/2 stabs are quite small as are the stabs on Pazmany's ac...

Just watch Mike’s vids on YT, he discusses the nozzle issue perfectly.

According to the details in the description of that EE Wren vid it has covered 87.5 miles on 1 Imp Gal!

What aircraft is that?

I wouldn't dare using a wide-angle vehicle camera, they have VERY poor visible detail range. I use them everyday in my work van. Its VERY hard to see motorcyclists.. and they aren't exactly small. They also get sun-blinded very easily too.

The most kick-ass aircraft EVER made with BLC, on ALL control surfaces too (used a 5th turbine embedded in fuselage..)!! Probably the largest STOL aircraft ever created as well. The Shinmeiwa PS-1 and later US-2 PX-S STOL Flying Boat.mpg - YouTube Fun facts: Shinmeiwa/Shinmaywa is formerly...

Has anyone tried dimples (like a golf ball, but larger) as micro VGs? Seems like they'd have less of a drag penalty + more reliable.. never need to worry about replacing broken/missing VGs. Obviously, would be a lot harder too install after a build, but if implemented during a build not nearly...

I imagine the "Air brake belly board" would be used to reduce the floating/ground effect landing length?

Kyle Mohan Racing has several vids on how-to properly do a Hybrid Renesis/13b engine.. (5 exhaust ports: 3 slots + 2 PP ports) He and Atkins Rotary sell the 5 port flanges.. Hybrid Renesis Rotary Engine Explained, what it needs, Mazda RX8 Kyle Mohan Racing, Mazdatrix - YouTube

Well, there are soo many cool aircraft out there, its a tough call. Ideally: 1 STOL, 1 Long-range cruiser and 1 aerobatic.. A Long-Ez with the ARES canard and full retracts would be cool.. (love canards) A composite Me-163 with a safe rocket engine would be an absolute blast... Gotta be...
