I was waiting for the scale model F-22 to swoop in and shoot it down! ;-)

[Mastador1]

someone is going to weaponize this. The world gets more dangerous every day.

Well then we better get the democrats right on banning them.

[BipolarBob]

Like that would be hard. Put a spike on the front and go full bore into somebody.

I doubt they’d need any spike, just slam into someone at nearly 500 mph and it’s a wrap for that person.

Here’s 720p footage of the same plane with G0Pro cam.

Four segments, each about six minutes.

1. Forward view from take off to landing.
2. Rear view take off & landing.
3. Rear view take off & landing
4. Forward view take off & landing

Amazing... In straight line it would be approximately a 45 mile flight.

They picked a perfect day for filming.
Got a bit queasy watching the horizon twists and turns.

[Rebelbase]

Good point. The speed and small size would be a total surprise.

Your link, 16:25 close up of the model shows some similarity to the SR-71.

[The Public Eye]

Next step, speed of sound with RC. Cool.

[Covenantor]

Yeah, the full head on view does recall the Sr-71.

Would that thing even register on radar screens? Has practically zero cross-section head on, and from the side just the engine housing bulge and the vertical stabilizers.

With just the Go-Pro it provides amazing video as a fast, below tree top recon bird.

Wonder if a sky blue paint scheme with a dark outline of vulture would confuse the eye...of course vultures aren’t that fast.

[Rebelbase]

It’s so fast there’s no reacting to it. Here and gone before you know it at tree-top level.
