    Impressive! Pity the camera operator wasn't as good as the 'pilot' though!

    Okay assuming a SR-71 "type" fuselage, that looks to be about... what... 1/32nd scale (give or take)? That makes for a scale speed of about 400 x 32 = 12,800mph. Cripes!!!

    expanding on the SR71 idea what if he fits 2 engines like the real thing how fast would that be

    If you messed up your navigation and that went into the crowd, it certainly would kill somebody. Cut em right in half.

    Even the camera guy couldn't keep track of it.
    I might get one flight out of it, a short one at that, and it would end up looking like a lawn dart with its nose drove into the ground.

    Pretty skilled "pilot". I would either 1) enjoy flying it for 10 seconds as I lose sight of it and it flys away, or 2) plow it into the ground at 400mph.

    Awesome specially when you realise this footage was made somewhere in Holland, one of the densest populated area's of Europe with a matching severe legislation. Wouldn't want one of those flying through my bedroom window

    I bet that damn thing would go through an average build house and still cut someone in half. That RC is flying!!!

    the engine looks to be the same one Yves Rossy uses for his wing pack.
