Back in  the days of Sky King I had a gas powered model P-38 - two engines 
that never  ran in synch. The plane ran on a control line that permitted you to 
change  altitude, but you had to stand and turn in a circle while the plane 
flew. A  few dozen laps and you were ready to throw up. 


So what happens when you have a line-control plane with out of synch  
engines?  Yaw, pitch, or crash?      
 
c                 PS The worst thing that could happen to that P-38 is for it 
to be restored and  all polished up.
