Thought you folks would be interested if you hadn't seen it.

Looks like a sneekily suspicious build technique :)

Gas powered for longer range.

So that's why Flight Test has slowed down lately, they have been helping the Russians build foam board planes! LoL

Wake up! Time to fly!
I have questioned some of the random people popping in on ocassion asking how to do long range heavier payload projects.

Their questions and reasons seemed on the outter edge of hobby use but you cant go... "hey bro.. you a terroist wantin to blow stuffs up?"

It can’t have worked very well. If it did it’s job surely there would only be tiny, charred pieces?
Surely in most of these places buying old Russian mortars and sending them back to the nearest base is cheaper and more effective.
