True but im sure they are gonna use some high quality expensive landing gears that can take some serious abuse and they aren't gonna be using the cheap amazon ones that I usually use 😂

They are still mounted in plastic though....

Oh yeah completely forgot about that but let’s just hope they post a new video with an actual flight test soon…..my question is who is gonna pilot that thing ? Is one of them gonna pilot that thing themselves or are they gonna get some one who has flown 400 mph before to do it for them ?

They had someone else with more experience pilot it for them in the other video..

If it's stable, you don't need a ton of experience to land, just get slower and slower really close to the ground (preferences being tall [needing mowing] grass) I belly land. Less stuff tomorrow to repair
If its stable, flying fast is easey with teensie stick movements. Big movements cause rapid disassembly.
EVERYONE is a newbie, first flight/new design. Experience means when it does something stupid, you think: the last one I had that did this, I corrected this way.
Carry on, I have popcorn and beer.

Another thing im interested is in and I think @Mr Man might also be interested in is this guy who is trying to build a supersonic dynamic soaring glider and unlike people like the mach initiative this guy (Joe manor) actually has a lot of experience with speed planes and has gone 400 plus with a dynamic soaring glider he built. Im mentioning all of this because the design of the airplane is very interesting and unlike any dynamic soaring glider I have seen before.

I like the idea but I would suggest going 200 mph with foamboard first and then go 200 mph with a 3d printed aircraft. Seems like it would be harder to go 200 with a 3d printed airplane since it would be heavier.

Very nice 119 is pretty good but im still wondering why you and @Mr Man are using such small motors that run on 6s that are meant for fpv drones. I would like to see you guys build a larger version of this radjet design and put a larger more powerful motor on there. Something running on 8s or even 12s would be very interesting to watch and im sure you guys would be able to reach higher speeds...

We are NOT running small drone motors🤣🤣🤣.

Well they are pretty small to me at least and they are running at only 6s…..my question is why are don’t you guys use a more powerful motor and paired with a larger airframe and wingspan ?
