Pylon Racing
FAI F5D
Its not too easy to video a F5D Pylon model at full speed however there have been some reasonable results. I would love some more so if you have any Pylon Racing Video that is not on the web yet. Let me know as I would love it.

The first video is of a UK League event held in 2003. The second is a bit of video footage of one of our British team members test flying his new model for the first time. After a slow first lap to get the trim right he turned in a 62 second flight time. Pretty darn good I would say. Unfortunately at the worlds the noisy thing at the front played up so times never got back into the low 60's. I saved the best F3D Video till last which is I believe the Dutch Champion in a league race. I cannot remember where I collected the video from and apologies if i have pinched it off you! I had to share it as its great.

B52
Yes this is it. The B52 Crash Video that has been downloaded over 250,000 times since I first posted it Sept 04. We watched with horror from the pylon race line as the 27ft wingspan 8 wren gas turbine model appeared to tip stall into the ground. The pilot has put his hand up and admitted that he became disorientated and banked the wrong way past the point of no return. This looks horrifically similar to the full size Crash Video below also.
The model is being rebuilt however there are stories that this has also crashed due to a mechanical problem I cannot confirm this for sure so I guess we will have to wait and see.
