I've always fancied an amphibious ultralight so I've modified my original "Thruster" design with the addition of some floats and a jet engine! Top speed is around 130mph but it will quite happily cruise at 55mph at 20% power. Stall speed is around 20mph.

CONTROLS

AG1 engages rear wheel steering/rudder.

Hope you all enjoy this one, it's a delight to fly.
