As a former driver of one of C versions of this thing..... I can tell you that is just about the fastest start up, torque check, fuel check, hover and and departures I have ever seen.

[@AEROWEPHILE]

Interesting. Just how quick was this departure compared to the normal time required to run through all the checks and depart? Appreciate the information. Cheers!
