Nope, never seen it. I saw one very similar to it though that someone had scratch-built I think. It was similar in that it had a mid-engine placement kind of like this one. I can't really tell from the picture though, is that a nitro model? It looks like it'd be easy to convert to electric if it is.
The SR-71 is one of my all time faves! What an amazing plane. If you do a search, I think someone made a very scale-looking one a few years back and they set it up as a pusher prop jet. It looked like it flew great in the video the user posted too, but I don't know if the video will still be around after the forums were re-done. Anyway though, take care, and have fun!
Is that model yours? Are you going to fly it soon if it is yours?

You think that's good - tak a look at this one:

That's going to need serious power. I don't want to even try to guesstimate what this thing will cost when all is said and done. I just hope for his sake, it actually flies!

Specs:
13 feet long
7 foot wingspan
45 LBS

Skyhawk,

Wow, your plane IS cool! :) Wow man, how did you do that? That's amazing, I'm going to look through your website some more tonight, but that molded fuse is pretty sweet! Man, that's amazing. I hope you have a great time flying it!
Are you going to be making kits for that one? That's amazing. What are you going to power it with? I mean, whoa, that would need some serious power right? That thing would probably need a 20S bazillion-milli-amp-hour battery, right?! :D Really though, is it going to be a pusher, or an EDF, or a turbine? Thanks!
That's really cool, it looks super smooth, that's for sure!

skyhawk, that is amazing!

Unless mistaken, that's not Skyhawk's ship... Reading the pages, it looks like it's going to be a turbine job, and so far, only the plug and moldings have been built. The plug is incredible looking, though. (http://www.mmrca.org/lance/sled24.htm)

You guys are right - that is not my ship. Just one I'm watching closely. It's got good info on building molds.
