I don't know why they don't stall. I'm not a pilot. But I've seen something like them in action. And that jet was powered by an actual jet engine, about two feet long.

Yes they are real jet engines. A couple guys at our rc club have them. We actually clocked one of them doing a full power low pass over the runway at over 140 mph with local police radar. They are amazing, but way out of my price range.

They don't stall because of the power of the thrust from the engine. Did you ever see a harrier take off straight up without using the lift produced by the wings in a normal take-off? THRUST! POWER!!

Take note that the people/person in the video never moves and is in the same position/pose for the entire video...just an observation...

. Yup. Me too. @/just before the same time. Kids these days will never know the joy of painstakingly making a scaled version of an obscure aircraft from Xactoing balsa strips and gluing tissue paper. Only to put the pieces back in the box before it's 3rd flight. Mine was a 3 foot Ugly Stick redo. Twice. (3rd Time = Success!) Also at that time, "jets" were fancy ducted fans.
. We had occasional minor problems with major aholes. We had a club, and a system. Get a permit to use the field, with radios. A signboard with freqs listed had a colored flag for each (mine was yellow). Some whackados would show up with plastic kiddie kits and assemble at the other end ("It's a public field! We're allowed!"). And suddenly your plane would act up near that end. *sigh*
. They didn't know that if you flew too close to the hawks' nest at that end you'd lose your plane. They didn't know that if you flew too close to the ham operator near that end you'd lose your plane. They didn't know that if you flew too close to *my* end my 5 watt transmitter would over ride your 1 watt and you'd lose your plane.
