Is this the Blitz RC Rafale? How fast does it go?

It's the SN Hobbies Rafale. Hobby-Lobby distributes the Sn Hbbies Rafale, too. You can see the very subtle differences between them in these pictures. Some differences are the canopy shape, bottom of nose cone is upward a little more on the BlitzRC Works one, and the noes gear is somewhat different.
