Default Futurion on Vivatur! (Pictures)

Hello guys, just want to show few pictures from one travel exhibition Vivatur 2006 in Vilnius, i flew there last weekend with one friend. I flew with new version of Futurion with full fuse and some other changes in design, plane fly simply awesome! This version is made for ETOC sequence, perfect size to be slow and stable and also perform some crazy KE manoeuvres.
Flying in exhibitions is great experience, but sometimes it sucks...when all around is wires, stands and people with dumb questions like:
How far it can fly? How much cost this toy? Can you crash it? Best was, i fly plane in real tight space and make KE, KE snaps, point/slow rolls, and one man ask can you do some tricks L.O.L
And flying 3 days in tight place is too much.. ( never thought i will say this :-) But im already ok, im going again to gym after few hours
Sory this time no video but as i told here you go few pictures:

Next time i will try to make video that would be much better than pictures. There was some fun flying i would love to share with you all.

Yes sometimes you just don't have words to say...after some "clever" questions. I guess same situation is in all countries...

Hideho,
So does anyone else notice how nobody seems to be looking at Donatas's plane when it is flying?
I mean the pictures are beautiful, the flying is excellent, (I know how hard it is to do that in tight spaces), I'm sure there are many who would like to chastise yuou and call it dangerous (not me, I can see the control you obviously have), but in every photo no one is amazed or looking...that's too bad, from where I sit.
Is it so common that everybody flys that good where you are Donatas?
nICE PHOTOS, THANKS.
Best to you,
Mike

Wizard, sorry they are not for sale, i hope Futurion will become kit soon, and you can buy and fly this unique plane, i can guarantee you never flow something like this!

Mike thanks for compliments, and yes i agree with your opinion, sad but people here are not very interesting in "toy planes" and whats more sad they don't understand what skills must be involved to fly these small planes. They just think ohhh its just cheap toy, here is nothing hard just few buttons for take off, fly, to make tricks and one for landing....when i start explain what and how most of them just go away L.O.L
But not all so bad in all exhibition was about 5 people that actually understand complication of such flying, because they was modellers once What about safety, it is light 155g (5,5oz) plane and only part that can injure is prop... so i try to keep it away from people and if something goes wrong (what not happen in most of shows for me) im sure i can shut down engine in time. But naturally there is always small risk...Again with usual shocky this type of flying would be harder, thanks to stable Futurion it was not so difficult. Anyway in this exhibition 5 new companies was interesting to work with me in future, so that's what is important
