    Holy r/c turbine technology! Science fiction just became science fact! I know the fuel management programs for miniature turbines has come a long way, but I have to wonder... if you experience asymmetric thrust, are you doing aerial cartwheels?

    There is another model out there that uses a long hose and water pressure to fly you around the bays. Saw it is action this summer out at Montauk. Noisy and annoying IMO, but fun for the operator. Hope I'm not breaking any rules with this post?

    I saw that on Boys Toys an the AWE channel with Jenny Barlow, pretty cool stuff. I would love to see a pack with out hoses and longer flight duration, Id take that as high as it would go!
