“Yep...as a pilot and mechanic who is always going to airshows no one at present does this in a full size.”

I’ve seen this at airshows, with a full size real plane with pilot, and as I said above, I’ve seen this go into a climb then a hammerhead to get out of it.

I know what you are talking about and some of these full scale aerobatic airplanes have just about enough power to virtually hang on the prop like a giant scale R/C airplane..but for safety concerns NO ONE is doing this just above the ground like this video shows...which was more the point I was making... plus in this video you can see the pilot with transmitter in the foreground as someone pointed out....

Short hang into a hammerhead. I’ve seen much longer hangs before the hammerhead stall, but can’t find one on Youtube.
