Well, I wish them luck because the way the electric VPP has not gone over, I cannot see how this will be any better. I do think it is very cool, but we will see how the market reacts.

Have you tried reversing the pitch on a steep descent? Like Beta in a full-scale plane?
What is the cost and what size engines do you plan to offer it for?

The idea of a variable pitch prop came out as an april fools joke on Flying giants. They had a very well photo shopped picture of a pattern plane hovering inches of the ground nose down. At first I thought it was real but after a while every one new it wasnt. Eddie the master of design and construction desided that he would satisfy all the people who wanted one after the joke. After a couple mounths he came out with this and forever changed giant scale. There are more videos on FG of the plane stopping on a dime on landing and stopping on down lines.
