      Dude yes! Do it! Honestly, start with slow flying planes, get it off the ground and a few mistakes high and just get used to the controls. It doesn't take a lot to get started anymore, and theres nothing quite like flying.

    Thank you for developing this new power pack! Our school’s RC club flies daily in a gym and this will be a great opportunity for some experimentation by our students. Plus, my son is 5 going on 6 and has wanted to join the fun. I am so happy to have something coming out that will be approachable for him. Keep up the good work!

      @@LuciusKyrus the FAA needs to work with the RC clubs and educate the few who either dont already know (or dont care) about the risks of flying into flight paths. It's the same here in Canada. Register with an RC insurance company and join a club. Fly at registered fields instead of just anywhere you feel like it...

    Years ago I bought an Enterprise at a swap meet. It was 50% larger but looked very much the same. It flew great until I crashed it.
    It had a very unique feature. THE SAUCER WAS AN AIRFOIL!
    Very different! The airfoil was symmetrical all 360 degrees. It was flat on the bottom but curved on top. Resembled the “real” one. Kind of like a drum cymbal.
    Try an airfoil saucer!

    okay, I had an idea, the ready-made runway was just a grass strip and a small hill. so make that area into a little aircraft-carrier for your runway. you will stand in the command tower and control your plane from there. some aircraft carriers have ramps at the end of the runway so have that at the beginning of the hill. just thought that it would be cool.

    Haven't finished this video yet, love that you guys are going for the Galaxy Class Enterprise. Here's a couple more requests. How about some of the Shuttlecraft / Pods? The Runabout Class is a sleek box you can build out of foam. But the retro shuttles and the quantum leap shuttles might have merit for FPV.
    Now for the show-stopper! How about going FULL PLAID and building Captain Lonestar's "Winnebago with Wings" (Eagle 5) from Spaceballs? Use The Schwartz!

    Lift produced by a wing is dependent on airflow across the wing and is independent of it's orientation relative to gravity. Dihedral works because it moves the center of lift above the center of mass causing the system to be self correcting. It's analogous to trying to balance a pencil on your fingertip versus hanging it.

    Here's a serious challenge for you guys. Josh, Alex, maybe a couple of your "specialist" friends.. A vehicle that flies, goes for a swim, and drives on land. The vehicle I have in mind is "Wet Nellie" from the James Bond film The Spy Who Loved Me. Based on the Lotus Espirit S1, it would be beautiful to see, and a comprehensive test of R/C capabilities and your amazing improvisational skills. Are you up for it?
