I wasted three engines trying to get it to fly vertical. I ended up throwing it away.Chris Michielssenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06907925631001358372noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3612012025300219489.post-27783170844739919682017-04-27T11:20:02.656-04:002017-04-27T11:20:02.656-04:00Hi BAR,

Plus numerous smaller lengths.
