I'm willing to bet a lot of CGI editing was the culprit. here is the evidence

First we notice the :17 mark in the video where the right wing separates from the aircraft.

The wing breaks down and away from the aircraft.

A loaded aircraft wing under stress almost universally breaks UP and away from the aircraft ( see at the 15 second mark) however this wing separation occurred at a relatively low wing loading maneuver.

Take a look at the :23 mark... the airplane has lost its right wing; in this type of aircraft (as with most types of aircraft) this loss of the right wing would result in an uncontrollable roll to the right regardless of pilot inputs.

from the :23 mark the airplane does about 3 full rolls to the LEFT which is the complete opposite of what physics dictate the aircraft should have done.

further evidence that this is CGI, and couldnt possibly be a real -or- RC airplane is suggested at the :46 second mark...

the attitude that the aircraft has at that point would require full left rudder, however the aircraft depicted has no rudder deflection at all.

see here for further hoax explanations as to this particular video... the airplanes paint scheme mysteriously changes half way into the video as well
