    +Josh Biller Hey Josh! Love watching your videos on flitetest. I was watching a documentary film on a World War 2 German fighter called the Dornier Do 335 Pfeil ("Arrow"). With some of the World War 2 based planes that you guys are selling, why not design and build a replica version of this german airplane. What would make it interesting for this plane is that it has two engines with a push-pull configuration. One engine in the rear and one in the front. It has the option of turning the front engine off while the rear engine is still running. This would be an interesting project to build on FliteTest. I am planning buying one of your products this year by flying a slow airplane. Peace, Flood!

    firepat There is a guy that flies delta-shaped nitro-powered planes back and forth along the firing line. He makes them out of that corrugated plastic sheeting they make signs out of, so they can take a lot of bullet strikes. I'm pretty sure the organizers of the MG shoot would let Flitetest fly and film there though, and probably let them shoot some of the machine guns too. It would actually be a really fun video for them to make.

    My first ever scratch build was one of these wings with the F power pack and it is my favorite plane by a long shot. After I flew it for the first time, I had to go to my local shop and buy more batteries so I get more air time with it. Best part is, my build was nowhere near perfect and it still flies like a champ so it is definitely forgiving. Fantastic work on the design!

    So cool to see the collaboration of all my Favorite youtube channels. This video reminds me of my first wing flight, I seriously couldn't stop smiling. I ended up buying 3 kits and building them all with friends at work, its really a blast, right from building to teaching/learning to fly, and once you've crashed a few times you realize how easy and cheap they are to repair. Just added FPV gear to mine a couple weeks ago can't wait to try it out.
