A video (from HERE) of a beautiful large-scale Nakajima Ki-84 "Hayate" (Frank) flown last May by Ikeda Katsuya-san, from Tochigi Prefecture, during the 16th "Nakajima Hikoki Scale Contest", that took place at "Ojima RC Sky Port", in Ota city, Gunma prefecture, where the main Nakajima factory used to be. The engine is a DLE55 and the model has butterfly flaps.

Very nice! Yes, larger models fly better, at some points looking quite convincing as the real thing. Sad that we do not have a real flying Hayate somewhere in the world....
