Hi, Its just a proof of concept. Here some specs: topspeed Water: 220 mph / topspeed air: 414. How to fly: when spawning in retract the gear en give full throttle. When you passed 100 mph on water give full up and wait 'till the plane lifts of from the water! I really would apriciate if you tell me what you think about it, and keep in mind it's only a PROOF OF CONCEPT!

    A few things: This thing works great for the most part. Well done! The Yaw controlling the propeller angle is good, but you do have the hinge set to 90 instead of 10-15. Also I do like to invert one of the propellers so that you don't have the pull to one side. Can't wait for more experimental stuff!
