(Rebuild of an old model) partial credit to @AlphaOneIndustries for fused engines, I modded a bit more. "Precious Metal" competed in the 2014 Reno Air Race Unlimited Class. Six contra-rotating propellers were powered by a custom 3,200 HP Griffin engine. The wings were from a Learjet. Precious Metal competed at 540+ MPH @ 1,000-2,000 feet. So does this model, all parts are stock. ACT=1 ACT=2 then Full throttle. Take off any launch strip: Bandit, Tarpley, Murphy.
