I haven't either, that's why I am wondering. It seems to work when I made a paper wing, so I would think it should as well, but there is a big difference between a folded paper airplene and a real model.

Whulp.......I've always longed for this in a full-scale saddle 'em up version but though the borders on my insanity and imagination suggest that it stretches far and wide......I actually realize that this will likely never happen.
So I continue to dream it in an R/C version with an EDF.
If it were built as pictured with the pilot, it wouldn't be a speed machine (draggy?), but it'd look many shades of cool!!!
Whaddaya Think???
