Lets discuss this in a civilized way

Hello....

Its possible to hang the plane on the prop like a helicopter....

I build RC-Model Planes... I have a PD51 with 2m span and a 50ccm 4 stroke engine...

Ok, the model is overpowered, means the engine pull a force of 15kg, but my model weight is only 10kg...

I can hover it vertically at 3 feet and use full ailereons left to compensate tourque of the engine.... it hang their like a heli in the air....

Sure with real WWII planes it is not possible, because the engines generate not more force than the weight of the plane is....

But every plane whos engine generate more thrust than the planes weight can do this....

Excuse my english, but when it gets so technicall Im pretty sure its very bad...lol
  :D
