A VERY DRAMATIC END TO A SHORT FLIGHT THAT LMA CHAIRMAN DAVE JOHNSON HAD WITH HIS MASSIVE DELTA WING BOMBER IN GUSTING 20 MPH WINDS AT THIS GREAT RC SHOW.
NOT SURE OF THE REASON FOR THE FIRE BUT NO DAMAGE WAS DONE AND THE FIRE WAS CONTAINED INSIDE A SPECIALLY DESIGNED STAINLESS STEEL TUBE INSIDE THE WING !
THE VULCAN IS 1/5 TH SCALE WITH A WING SPAN OF JUST OVER 20 FT AND WEIGHS AROUND 139 KG / 300 ILBS,
SHE HAS OVER 100 SQ FT OF WING AREA WITH A WING LOADING OF 3ILB / SQUARE FOOT - SIMILAR TO A LARGE GLIDER,
SHE IS POWERED BY FOUR JETSMUNT 160 GAS TURBINES WHICH PRODUCE 155 ILBS OF THRUST COMBINED AND CARRIES 20 KG OF FUEL TO FEED THEM !
SHE ALSO HAS AROUND 8 KG OF LEAD BALLAST ONBOARD TO BALANCE HER CORRECTLY,
THE WEIGHT OF ALL THREE UNDERCARRIAGES ALONE COMES TO 25 KG,
IN THE 2013 SEASON SHE LOGGED 40 FLIGHTS,
IT TOOK DAVE AND HIS TEAM OVER THREE YEARS TO DESIGN AND BUILD THE MODEL !
THE VULCAN APPROACHES THE 120MPH MARK
