damn that is cool. But 300 kmh is like 80 meters per second. If he goes straight for too long he can't have any idea where the **** it is?

They were fast but no way anywhere near 300kmph.

them planes would cost somewhere in the region of £500-700 I wud assume, so a lot more than 500$

If u give the plain a free fall it might get up to 300 but does it really matter, it must still be fun for those who like plains.
 
Personally I just want a flying mount :)

great vid, awsome music :D

Though the landing could be a bit better, if they tried that on a aircraft carier, they would bounce right of it without even touching the brake wires :P

It must require tromendous concentration to control it, and a great ability to keep it within range of the controller

The model, yes. Then you've got the engine. Looking at it, it's a proper gas turbine. These things are computer controlled and they are thousands of dollars in price. Very expensive. http://www.jetcatusa.com/

Far too noisy for me :D

I like the old-style ones with the propeller... should have one around (of the lil ones) and this vid just made me want to use it again :narnar:
