It had thrust and elevator power. Of course one could use various props. It was a very popular toy. People would go by in their boats and watch it fly around, it was on a plateau just off the lake. Wow! that sounds real cool! Can you post some pics of it somewhere? I'm real intersted in model airplanes and hope to build one one day I can use as a prototype I might have in mind for making a wood and/or fiberglass aluminum composite maybe for commercial use in the long distant future. Thanks! Marv Back in the 80's, the techno existed to develope a shoulder launched guided missile that could deliver a kiloton explosion anywhere on the planet. I asked Reagan and Gorbetrov if they wanted us to develope that weapon, they said wait, cuz they did not have the arm skills to regulate a policy to cover that type of weapon., fair enough, the program is on pause.
