I'm totally impressed

Not a big buff on this stuff, but that is amazing. I'm not sure which I'm more impressed with, the plane or the operator. Do you call him a driver or pilot?

The power to weight ratio is amazing in these. Too bad it does not scale up to the real thing.

I used to fly RC planes a long time ago, never was any good at it, but it was fun.

RC's can have a power to weight ratio that's much better than 'real' aircraft, plus they can pull a lot more G's because of the lack of pilot on board.

That guy was pretty good.

Now what I like to watch is them Blue Angels.

I used to fly rc airplanes lots of fun but you will eventually crash. It's always hard do see hundreds of hours of work gone in a second.

Incredible flying skills. I've done stalls, wingovers, hammerhead stalls, loops, rolls, snap rolls, and inverted flight - in real airplanes - and of course always above 3000', but this guy has all the skills. Very impressive!
