Long Live The Empire: Guys Successfully Launch A 15-Foot Star Destroyer
On the heels of us posting about how most Star Wars vehicles would not be actually flyable, the guys at Flight Test ended up making a replica Empire Star Destroyer fly! That being said, it didn't fly well enough to rule the galaxy with an iron grip. It also was made of foam and a fraction of the size of the fictional star destroyer.
One thing that piqued my interest while I was watching...how does the Empire launch their Star Destroyers? Are they constructed in space like the Death Star? Do they have a giant truck drive a ways before their launch? Anyone with the answer, feel free to let me know in the comments. Also check out their site if you're looking for specs outside of the ones presented in the video! Maybe you'll have more success!
