People saw something they didn't understand and automatically claimed extraterrestrial craft?

Shocked, shocked I say.

I read that a North Korean drone got like a hundred miles into South Korea. That would be a lot more disturbing IMHO then this rocket test.

Hum, im not so impressed that busted up light blue plane very well maybe state of the art for North Korea but when i worked at the hobby shop used its about 100 bucks.

Since i like RC i hunted online a little and found

drone

That was i believe from 2017 that craft is a pig it has a 2 cylinder engine that is likely gasoline 2 stroke, think dual weed eater engine the wing is leaning to glider as is the V tail so it could ride thermals but the engine is an anchor and 100 miles in? It would have had to have been tracked or ? Not line of site flown and baby blue on the sky is hard to see anyway And pretty much the whole body would have to be full of fuel.

On another site

more drones

This one claims 2014 and shows a simple plane like before and then a cool delta smaller craft that is nitro fuel powered it will not run on gasoline or castor oil nitro engine are 2 stroke diesel they have to have their glow plug ignited and are not efficient, last i looked as i have a lot of nitro cars in my collection nitro fuel was upwards of 20 bucks a half gal, that delta craft is a fun stunt flyer but i cant imagine it making a good long range or high air drone.
