Great video, thanks for making and sharing. Its very well done, I enjoyed it a lot. Its nice to have a new Cupcake tutorial, it's been a while. As before, your narrating style and voice are very easy on the ear, it was easy to follow and understand.

I appreciate the insight in your building techniques. Especially beginners could benefit greatly from such videos. Your dropship tutorial definitely marked a turning point in my building style back then. This time around I already had a pretty good idea of how the Storm was made (as I rebuilt one as a drone before and already had a look under the hood) but it was very interesting nevertheless.

Bit surprised nobody else commented on here yet. But there you go: two thumbs up from me!

Hey man, in addition to what I said above, I have a little question indeed: when you line up the COM and COL, you aim to have them at exactly the same spot, or the COL ever so slightly behind the COM as it appears in the video??

If the COL and COM line up the craft is too stable and will have trouble turning. That's why it's good to put it a short distance behind so the lift bias is towards the control surfaces if that makes sense?
