Check out this awesome footage of a $20,000 RC sports jet flying vertically, but leaving a jet trail as if it were an actual plane.
If you hadn’t been told that this remote-controlled jet was not a real airplane, we wouldn’t blame you for being fooled; it looks incredibly realistic.
The Futura Tomahawk costs a whopping $20,000 and is made up of many lightweight parts like the servo, batteries, fuel bag, and smoke bag.
The high-tech design is so impressive that it can even fly smoothly and vertically – check it out in the video above.
