LOL Its actually a 1/4scale Model of a Reno Racer p_51 called the Galloping Ghost. The fullsize crashed at the Reno Air race in 2011. Pretty horrific crash.

The model in the vid is powered by a German built Kolm IL 200 (3 cylinder in-line 4 stroke petrol engine displacing 200cc)

I might not have watched the clip. :blush:

No sweat, its a very well built and detailed model so it would be hard for the untrained eye to tell its a model without watching the video. :)

 

I immediately realised it was a model. I knew that the Galloping Ghost crashed. The short take off gave it away. In the clips after the posted clip they showed a Focke Wulf 190 flying, the engine sounded the same. These thing I MUST ignore BEFORE the worm starts turning !!!!!!!!!

 

I have seen Sally P 51 and other Spit's fly before and know what the Merlin sounds like. Saw a clip recently of a Lancaster as well as Shacleton flying. Even more awesome to hear four Merlins at the same time. Cannot imagine how it sounded when 500 Lancs went on a bombing mission!!!!
