Engines alone were $12K
Pretty impressive. I was surprised at how loud the engines were.

Jim told me I can buy Gaydar online
That is really impressive but I am more impressed with this one! It looks as if it has functioning variable geometry wings and all!
That's the video I want to see, if possible split screen with the guy flying it desperately trying to save it and then his face as it goes up in flames.

If you ever get the chance, which I haven't, I've heard that the "Top Gun" scale rc competition is worth going to. Even if you don't do rc planes, which I don't, I guess some of the jets at this thing are just unbelievably quick.

Here is a video of it's demise. Enjoy. I bet the owner/creator just broke down and cried after this happened. It actually looks sort of similar to the B-52 crash video at Fairchild.

Do people need any kind of quals before they put these flying hand grenades into the air?

This...is...Caketown!
I do like that one better, it looks like it's pretty fast, too. It seems that making these things too fast would be a detriment, though. Would they not go out of sight too quickly? I'd had to have one go out of signal range, drop control, and have it wack into a tree or something.
The cameraman in that video sucks balls.
