Hello David, Unfortunately (or more correctly, Fortunately!!) it is a fake. It's happened a few times to larger radio models & they can be successfully landed from knife edge flight (they have so much power that they can climb away vertically from a "hover" following a controlled tail slide !!). Several things give it away:- The smoke trail, No Red Bull identification & the name Killa thrill, Watch the way the prop comes to a stop. The "pilot" has no helmet or headset on. Details of wing root area of missing wing are wrong too. There is a similar clip of another model which suffered the same fate. Have a look at http://www.reggiepaulk.com/2008/10/killathrill-generates-huge-buzz-with. html D
