Rocket Powered 21 foot long X-Wing model actually flies

This is a geek's dream come true. These guys built a 21 foot long X-Wing Fighter with four rockets (SOLID FUEL ROCKETS!!!) and radio controlled wings! It can't land, so they will use parachutes to get it back. It takes flight next week on October 10th in California. With individual space flight on the horizon through private companies, making that final run down the death star may become a reality. :)
