Air Force vs my Quad

[Chuck]

Perhaps. But there's more to flight than just photography, high speed racing, and aerial acrobatics. One modification that I'm working on is a second battery in an "external droptank". Wired in parallel with the onboard battery. For extended flight time. And I have a few other ideas up my sleeve....

That is one heck of an idea!

Better put a chute on it. Does batteries don't like to be dropped hahah

I was a Crew Chief / Weapons Tech on the F4 Phantom C,D,E models in Udorn Thailand, made airmen of the quarter twice during my 4 year hitch there ( I loved it, kept extending my tour ), the reward was a 15 minute ride in the backseat if this flying death machine so I can relate, pilots main ambition when they have a "passenger" is to make you puke with barrel rolls, stress climbs, hang time ect, G suits will keep you from passing out but they do nothing to stop you from esophageal velocity discharge. When we closed up shop in 1975 I was re-stationed in Guam on B52 G's, got to ride in the NAV seat one of them as well, no rolls, tip turns or puking, more like a flying pencil with rubber wings

This was my bird 2 kills and lots of patches !!

I would give the proverbial right one for that chance!

Thank you for your Service!

Have fun
