Check it out: Electric Warbird w/real radial sound!

You just gotta see it to believe it.

Hanger 9 P-47: Electric power with speakers in engine compartment and an MP3 file slaved to the throttle stick. My understanding is that it has three settings- start (with the scale starting sequence and sound), flying (engine speed sound follows throttle stick) and one other- quit, maybe. This one even has smoke pellets that puff out smoke in a scale like fashion during the starting sequence.

Picture of this plane below.

That sounds really good. A lot better than a Saito.
