However if that video did anything for me it solidified my thoughts, atleast in my own mind, of the flight characteristics I'd be expecting from an SR-71 model, flat patterns, and some high speed straight passes.
I believe this model falls into that niche, that the larger the SR-71 is, the better it will fly. Shrinking this model will most likely require some sort of flight stabilization for the majority. Not a bad thing as that's quite a common accessory to add from what I've seen nowadays.
As stated before, I love the history, legacy and inspiration the real Blackbird stirs within me. I've seen 4 different ones in person and had the privilege of speaking with an former Blackbird driver as a teenager when my father was in the Airforce.
I just don't see myself picking one of these up if they became available...
