Discus Launch R/C Glider *Read Directions*

7,404 Mrwhiskers85  8.8 years ago

Sooooo, i wanted to try something new. I liked the looks of RC discus launch gliders so i made one. *TO OPERATE*. Press activtion 2 and move the vtol slider up and deactivate 2. Next, press activation 1 and slide the vtol down all the way. Now, to launch, quickly move the vtol back to center, and one you reach the center, press acivation 3. Then, it should climb like a bat out of hell. Once you are up, glide back down to earth. I really hope you like this. It took a lot of work and thought.

    @Mrwhiskers85 Can do! You can sub at ctjet99 on youtube if you want but I still have to find time to record. What kind of music would you like to see the flying to? I am thinking of making a "montage" of cool flying moments
