Thats smoking fast. Did you have to put some ice packs on those sticks to cool them off?

Nice flying! I have to say though it looks like points of it are sped up through editing. At about 1:35 it looks like the ground and clouds are going by a little fast. If you can keep up with it at that speed you are the man and I apologize for saying anything.

sweet video.. i had one of my planes spin that fast before and i know how easy it is for it to get away haha.. i could keep it for about 30 seconds under control then it will start to drift away. It is very hard.. or at least for me nice knife edges to

Thanks guys

The plane is a funtana40 with a saito91, i maxed the thows on ailerons and hit full throttle to get that roll rate. I am not brave enough to do it low yet, that would look cool!

Plaster93: Yep, its mostly rythm. I also have rudder and elevator on high rate with no expo on rudder, that is so that i dont have to move the sticks much which helps a lot at that speed.
