Title: SR-71 RC Model
Post by: jgroom on March 24, 2010, 09:57:01 PM

This is one absolutely amazing remote controlled [RC] model airplane.  Not only did they build its jet engines, but included a retractable landing gear, and built it into a fully scaled model of the SR-71 "Blackbird" that flies just like the real McCoy.  This SR-71 model was built by an Engineer / RC enthusiast in Germany , and is certainly one awesome toy.

Amazing model.  It's got to be a real handful to land it without stalling given so little wing area. 

One jet, centrally mounted, BTW.

Cheers,

you know something is cool when you need to have someone with a fire extinguisher standing by when you start it.
