I’m surprised this hasn’t been posted yet. Perhaps my google-fu is weak.

What the fuck, Alicia Keys is getting whiter.
That was some nice breakdancing there in the end.

Holy shit that is nuts. I want that thing. I also wish there were more information on the Youtube page such as max speed and stuff that thing seems like it is going incredibly fast.
I wonder how often they fly out of range of their RC controller – probably takes what, two seconds to go that far?

haha… well, the jetcat 180 article goes for around $4500 so his 160 is probably a smidgen cheaper. Oddly the jet bodies and silicon cost next to nothing…
But yeah, that RC jet is going truly fast…which as any sailor can tell you is where you are when you get past “crazy fast” and “dangerously fast”
Good grief, a twitch by the dude controlling it, and someone could a splode.
It wouldn’t be so bad if it had a wireless camera on it, and you controlled it by watching through a monitor. But it’s so freaking fast you’d have to have really good eyes and reflexes to make sure not to crash the thing (or impale somebody).

That’s what I was thinking, you should have plenty of power to mount a camera, if you could just figure out a long-range wireless solution to transmit and control.

I was coming to post this, but man. So beaten. This is so damned funny I can’t stop watching it.
Wasn’t there a video in this thread with a guy flying a plane via camera/monitor and shooting rockets and shit? That was a much slower plane, of course.
I don’t think that was via camera, I think it just had a camera mounted to record the awesome. In other words the camera was not transmitting, but I could be wrong.

Yeah, that particular video got pulled. It might be somewhere else or reuploaded, but I added it to my favorites when we first talked about it and it’s no longer available.
