    Cool.......that piece of kit must have cost a pretty penny to design and build.

    I read in another thread here that they are "diluting their brand". . . . . maybe someone should show this video to that person. ;)

    Does the engine really move that much? Some of those angles seem very exaggerated.

    No, they apparently are simulating the G forces exerted on the motor and more specifically the lubrication system. Tipping the motor to a 90 degree angle left or right would simulate a one G turn in that direction. Same goes for the fore and aft pitch.
