Looks and sounds like a 182 - is it the same?

I wanna see it with the cowl off!

In between my 182s, I've got the real deal and a RC at 95 inches wingspan.
 
Its a 35% model, does that mean it costs about $140,000(35% of 400,000) as well. Hope not.
 
In the air it's hard to tell it's not a real one. I imagine those landings are harder than it looks. It looks like it had either differential braking or a steerable nose wheel which is cool to go with the flaps. I've never done RC modeling but this plane makes you want to.
 
Nose wheel steering is fairly standard (and a feature of this plane)
 
The RC tail dragers also usually have the tail wheel connected to the rudder for steering. All of mine had the steering connected to the rudder.
 
All the RC airplanes they could build and they make a Skylane?

I bet for the dollars invested in that thing they could have bought a real one.
