I love the Hummingbird. Picked up an already built one in a shop in something like 1979. Loved it. Don't recall when I lost it.
I've built BT20, BT50 and BT60 sizes. The BT60 size ejected the motor pod and had airfoiled wings. It power pranged - I should get around to repairing it.
They fly like described in the Holverson kits. Arch overhead in a backwards loop and pop the motor about when it come level again. They don't usually glide a long way, but my BT20 size caught a perfect glide and literally flew off into the sunset.
Someday I want to mod a Stratoblaster kit into a giant Hummingbird
