@JovianPat OK
@Stingray I uploaded it four hours earlier, but he gave credit so it's fine.
@Stingray Of course. Check the predecessor.
Thx for pointing this out; possibly this was your build then copied? @JovianPat
@Aquaexploder @Stingray This is an almost direct copy of mine, but those floats look kinda nice. Also if you stay on water for too long it starts sinking :P
Works best in-air launch; 30-40% power. Power off landing. Great concept, keep it up!
@Aquaexploder beautiful!
Thanks but JovianPat gets most of the credit @MrSharp @MrSharp
