Well it is a stealth 8-)

Mostly for closer in park flying anyway as it is only an EPP profile foamie.

EPP F117 flight Aug 14 2010
Second flight for this plane since build

I cracked the nose and canopy just before this video on a the first attempt so had to fly a bit easy on it in hopes it wouldn't fly off but seems the force of the air held it all in place fine :-)

Recorded with keychain cam on hat, not the best quality and had to increase brightness a bit as the light level was still low early in morning.
