I for one am offended, I have actually flown one of these VPP giants.
These planes take 3D to the next level.
I suggest you get on the waiting list for these new prop setups, they're selling like hotcakes already down in S.America and most of Europe has caught onto the fever.
The video proves that this is the real McCoy, those of you that are monkeying around with the video are just jealous you have not been able to get a hold of this hot new technology. Don't be trying to ruin it for the guys that have not yet seen it for themselves. Let them draw their own conclusions.

Holy suffering murgatroids guys.

You calling me out on this, questioning my sincerety or what.

You know I dont have a dishonest bone in my body and have never ever tried to trick anyone in my entire life.

You want to see it at the Nall? I can fit Biff up with one for his pattern planes, He has heaps of them.

You have no idea how much monkeying around the boys had to do to get this to work and then imagine the feeling when the Flying Giants got the gurnsey to release the news to the hole world.

The photo is proof of the pudding and the video shows Marcela de Huevona holding it in that nose down hover for a good 20 seconds or more. Plus look closely at the recovery, I mean it was a rib cracker of a move and you can see the how crowd reacted in the last scene in the video..

I for one need one of these real quick and of course being related to the designers (by location) I figure we will put a few up for free to FG members. All you have to do is fit it, test it, video it and report back right here.

Kiwi

Thank you for backing me up on this Kiwi!!

It's obvious that str8 has a problem with believing this!!

And str8, if these awesome designers had your lack of faith, they would never have completed this tedious project. I, for one, have already sent my address to the originators of this product to install on my Excelleron 90 with a YS-120. I truly believe this gentlemen have taken my flying ability to the next level.

Video will follow!!!!!

I was just on the phone with MAX...

I know all you guys think this is fake, but its not.
There was an article a while back, and if you remember the VPP idea is not new. It actually was invented in the late 80's. They used that hub, and a new CF blade system to achieve was was thought to be impossible.
Expect a complete break down of the equipment used, and MAX is currently working on getting the video fixed.
The same clown who changed the header also HI jacked the video.
It will be up soon please check back.

For those who think this is a joke... cool.. we won't have to worry about you having one when KIWI brings them to the NALL!

You heard it here first!

Brutha' Sleepy!!!!

So that's who Max was on the phone with, I couldn't get through!!

I can't wait to try this!! I'll have it ready to run my the Huckfest, assuming I don't slam it in practicing before then. I hope it works on my 120, I think the shaft size is the same as the 140, we'll see when it gets here.

Thanks for the info!!!!
