Hello! I am a big fan of your stuff. Since you are always asking for us to tell you what to make fly, I would like to see you make an rc sailboat (*any size) fly.
I have been doing rc for over 30 years and have seen just about everything. My latest love is to run rc sailing yachts. I currently sail the Soling class. Solings are 39" long and have a 65" mast. I don't expect you to use a Soling for the experiment due to its 10 pound keel. The sailboat must be a manufactured hull and have the sails on it and the keel. I believe this to be a monumental challenge. Overcoming the weight factor of the keel and the wind action on the sails will be most of the challenge.
A nice touch would be to land the creation on a lake and sail it back to the shore. I have some ideas on how this could be done, but I am anxious and curious to see how you would do it!
I hope this can be one of your new projects for youtube. Thanks.
