Rolls Royce going fast....electrically

I wish RR would give credit where credit is due. The airframe itself is a Nemesis NXT designed by Jon Sharp. Wikipedia says it was derived from the NXT, but it looks awfully close to my eye.



Glad to see an all electric one in any case, hope to see it at Reno eventually!
Absolutely agree. Rolls-Royce modified an existing airframe. I'll be impressed when it's faster than Nemesis NXT. There's a reason the original Nemesis F1 racer is in the Smithsonian, Jon Sharp ruled F1 for a very long time.
 
In other news, Richman takes the gold in the 100 meter mosey.

Details tonight on ESPN 8 “The Ocho”!

It has to be faster than any other NXT, doesn't Relentless like always blow an engine?

It sure seems like it, but Kevin always seems to be trying to push the envelope in few different directions at once with regards to his engine program. I honestly don't follow air racing that closely anymore, much less the sport class. Relentless might be the only NXT racing anymore for all I know.

he announced this year that it would be his last racing Relentless
guess he had too many burn-y maydays trying to get his motor to work
