Great looking plane

Cool, you have video of it flying?!

Not yet, I blew up the right fan testing it. A string from a wrist strap was dangling from my hand and got sucked in... totally wrecked my day. Waiting on the new fan. I will post video once repaired. For sure... the thrust was great, held the plane straight up and it wanted to climb out of my hands. That's when the string got sucked in. That sucked the fun out if my day... hahaha
