   For two up flying, just strip down some of your old slot cars for the motors, or better yet, some of the electric motors and receiver/speed controllers from some small, cheep R/C sport flyers. Then fly them using the throttles to control altitude, and if you have a second channel, add elevators. This has been done commercially in a similar manor but a good modeler ought to be able to build something better. Might not be stunt capable but still fun to race, slice and dice a round with. If we were still a long way off to flying season I might work on something like that!
   Type at you later,

To accomplish that with rubber power is just plane genious.  I admire his dedication!  We need more flyers like that. H^^ H^^ H^^

Suddenly ringmasters look a lot more like F1 Shoestrings. Awesome idea.

I take it that it is tethered with no up down control.  Cool video.  Any chance of a drawing?  #^
