Nice post Derby.  I was curious how the delta turned so well and that answered the question.  Cool concept.

the way I understand it...yes...kind like what they said about motorbikes in a way..."steer with the rear", meaning you turn with the gas in a way....really neat and cool to see more done with less!

I had to close my eyes when he got to turn 2... broke my pelvis in three places there last June. Which reminds me, anyone want to buy a slightly used 848?
