New 787B video up on Autoblog

I hope this is the right forum, but it is the best video I have seen so far.
I hope it isn't a repeat. Such a great car and a great video for 4-rotor sounds

Been around for a while. But any 26B video is awsome

you see the still pics? the one of just the engine? it has that set-up of the sliders that change the length of the intake trumpets? the mechanics are set up on a platform that is attached at several points one of which is that black bracket in the front.


3 days ago i held one of those platforms in my hand from an original R28B

The motors that actuate the variable intake are nothing more than modified 2nd gen RX-7 headlight motors (they retract on that car)!
