Edit: static model only, shame.
I'm sure I read about Spits like this being built & flown using Jag engines?

It is amazing but the question is why?

It must have cost a fortune and a real sized replica wouldn't have cost much more?

Those are great but listen to these 5 cylinder radial engines on this 1/5 scale Tigercat especially at the end of the video cloud9
