I wanted to post something totally different and here we are. This is a glider that can glide for very long periods. to fly it you have to deactivate the gyroscope (AG8) before take-off. Once you're in air go full throttle and go in vertical position to a hight altitude ( more then 10.000 ft or even over 5.000), then press one to detach the engine and press 8 to activate the gyroscope. After all of this you just have to wait, unfortunately you have to wait a lot because the max speed while gliding is 53 mph.
