Goose Down - Mako Prototype Testing Gone Bad

2,009 Views · Posted 9 years ago
In the fall of 2014 when we were testing prototypes of the new RMRC Mako, one of the things we had to work out was the proper CG. As with any flying wing, if the CG isn't right bad things can happen. For this flight, having the CG too far aft caused a flat spin only to be matched by the epic Top Gun scene where Goose dies.

We made this video last fall, but couldn't make it public since we hadn't announced the Mako yet. Now we can share it for your viewing pleasure!

For a better view of how the Mako flies, check out this video:
