resembles a Spitfire.     

Oh wow that's cool! I remember the larger ones on a line that you'd fly in circles outside. This is a pretty cool updating of the concept.

Heh - was waiting for someone to come thru the doorway and WHAMMO! Oh well....

Yeah made sure the wife and kids were in bed!

Wondered what would have happened if that tether cap slipped off. LOL!!!

I dont want to find out

I think my boys would take it outside and practicing their anti-aircraft technique with the BB guns....

Very cool. I remember buildin a  1/48 p51 with the old cox 049. .

It is amazing how powerful that little motor is and how light the battery is.

It would be like a scene from a Quentin Tarantino movie!

I remember when I was a kid about 7 years old and my mom and dad got the Cox U-control P-40 for me.  We took it out to the school playground and my dad tried to get the motor started.  After what felt like 100 tries, the engine just never caught.

I was sad as we returned to our apartment and I think my dad was perplexed as to why it never started.  I remember him sitting at the kitchen table as he fiddled with the plane.  He flipped the prop and sure enough that sucker fired right up!  LOL!  There was smoke everywhere as my dad frantically held onto the plane with one hand and shut the engine down with the other.  We never did take it out after that but, to me, it sure was cool seeing and hearing that engine fired up.  I was happy with that.

How many Gs do you think that little plane is pulling at full speed?

I do not know but it is much faster than i expected
