After getting my SR-71 with 5 bladed 64 EDF's to fly, the next tackle was with the A-10. I built Mikey's A-10 years ago and gut feeling says it wasn't going to fly. So after my problems with the SR-71, took another look at the A-10 with 5bladed 64 EDf's(same one I used on the 71), and after 3 minor crashes, hit success. So now I have one short flight under me.
Same gusty and windy day I launched my Firebird design, went with the A-10 for a maiden. Watch the raw video, turn the volume up and watch the short flight. I had a crosswind and the gusts flipped it around and running out of room to fly, gently reduced throttle and had control when it landed.
Will see shortly is it solves the problem with 64 EDF's.
