Most indoor aerobats around here go the flat profile route, so a full sheet foam airframe stiffened with carbon fiber rods is a different approach to the usual indoor season opener, and it caught my attention right away. That construction choice seems smart to me: foam keeps things light, and the carbon rods should add the stiffness an airframe needs for hard aerobatic loading, though that is my read rather than anything the maker has explained.
The rest of the hardware reads like a tidy indoor package. Power comes from an electric motor and propeller up at the nose, fed by a 2S 550mAh pack, and there is wire landing gear with small foam wheels underneath. The red, white, and yellow graphics give it a proper show-plane look, and the wings carry the text 'VENI VIDI VICI'. The maker flies it with a black handheld transmitter that has dual gimbals, toggle switches, an antenna, and a digital display.
The flying is what stands out. The flight starts with a vertical launch straight into a steady hover, then moves through torque rolls, inverted hovering, tight loops, and high-alpha passes, at one point working close to the wooden ceiling rafters before the plane settles on its landing gear on the floor. The control shown through all of that looks precise to me, especially the hover work near the rafters.
For anyone wanting to reach this level, the maker suggests putting in 15 to 20 minutes a night on Realflight, flying IMAC basic and intermediate sequences, starting with a 32-inch profile foamy like the Crack Yak, and keeping FoamTac handy. One open question: nothing has been said about how long the 550mAh pack lasts in the air, and given all that hovering, I would be curious.
