Inverted at 3 feet doing a limbo! It takes nerves of steel and an
accomplished pilot. It also helps if the wind is not blowing!

I watched a fun-fly one time where a guy did inverted limbos, and
he was laying on his stomach so he could judge the distance better.
His record was an 18 inch inverted limbo, with a Contender.

Note that in a slow-flight attitude with tail low, that put the
vertical fin about 6 inches off the ground. The gear had to clear
the limbo ribbon, as he did not have retracts.
