80mm EDF Eflite radian disaster

Glueing a 80mm fan to the top of the radian seemed like a good idea, that is until I tossed it in the weeds. This ended worse than the umx version I made. But this did fly well and was very fun to play with. Coming soon version two. This was our first firework. . . . on accident

maybe just a gentle horizontal launch ? Great experiment 👍

It's coming back out this weekend. This time much better

[@AlanMckenzie]

"we'll be back" got me to subscribe 😄can't wait for more

[@flyasakite1781]

HEY!!! Thanks for joining

[@Daywalker126]

try to mix elevator proportional to the throttle due to the momentum that the engine is creating. And try to launch gentle while running, dont stop running and throw at a stance. 😀

[@flyasakite1781]

Oh ya. Almost done. V2 is bad to the bone. Coming soon

[@flyasakite1781]

😂 We tried multiple times. It had over 1200 grams of weight added.

Don't get your football playing buddy to hand launch your sail plane. That mistake is on the builder as you should know better.

[@flyasakite1781]

lmao dying laughing. Trying to get max altitude off the launch

[@DynamicAlex]

Dudes... what are you doing.... ? You can not push by hand that hard the plane... The hand is never correctly oriented with the correct plane direction... you will always get 'dangerous' results...
The arm/hand should just support with a gentle push the direction the plane is taking during the launch, while at sustained throttle...

oh they had words, you could tell in the sped up part.

[@flyasakite1781]

I went back and checked we were just laughing!
