Default RE: Dynamic Soaring at 487 MPH.

This is very fast - I wonder what is the speed record for RC IC engined, and also that of electric planes?

Come to think about it at least as fast as most full scale prop planes - and a large number of highly modified racing planes at Reno... And this is done with wind power alone...

Wonder when the 500 mph barrier will fall?
