[@ahdofu]

In the RC world where I operate, this is typically the norm as the model airplanes are way overpowered. This proves it that some people can also repeat this feat with real airplanes. Thanks for sharing.

[@SirFloofy001]

@Brian Wilson Yes its just much much harder to scale up that power to weight ratio of an RC plane because typically with lifesized scaled the components are much heavier for any given PWR of an RC. Balsa wood and foam board don't scale up very well strength wise.

[@ahdofu]

Quite right. In general real airplanes are designed for a mission say to carry a payload for a given range whilst meeting all the safety & certification requirements and they need to be producible at a profit. We don't have these constraints in RC airplanes. Everything is single threaded, the airframe is balsa with plastic covering and since economics don't matter, we typically go with the highest output engine that the airframe can withstand. There are exceptions of course where some people strive to be scale like but here I am talking sport/3D flyers. Coming to real airplanes, although the same aerodynamic principles apply, constraints and requirements are different and consequently this means that you just don't see an airplane that Steve Henry has created in practice.

Nope, not a helicopter because he still needs to go forward before any lift is generated. Helicopters go straight up when lifting off. My ppl in rotorcraft says so...... However, this airplane makes navy pilots stand in awe. They all need a slingshot to launch from their aircraft carriers. This man just throttles up and takes off in less than 6 feet..........on land.
