Yes there is jet engine model running on nitro-fuel jet engine. Not many people having it in malaysia because it's too expensive. The price 7 years back was about the price of a perodua viva. :shock:

I think a slower, prop-driven acrobatic plane would be more fun. The jet is so fast that all the pilot could do is some half loops (Immelmann Turns), rolls and touch-n-go. Must have invested a lot of money and time just to do that. :-k
