Title: Amazing aircraft
Post by: Robert Zambelli on August 24, 2020, 03:28:18 PM

I've seen this plane before but I really paid attention to it this past weekend.
The pilot  (Traian ???) turned in some of the best flights I've ever seen and I've observed and judged many of the best.
I was told that the plane is molded completely from carbon fiber and the pilot fabricated all the mechanical components himself.
Completely take-apart.
It's electric powered and programmable through his cell phone.
One of the fellows that flew it said it weighed less than 50 ounces.
The plane is truly an engineering masterpiece - I've never seen anything like it.
Definitely world class.

Bob,

I stole the photos.  ;D

I believe they were taken at contests. Top one might be the NATS.

It's Traian's design and build. He's a Forum contributor.

The inside is even cooler than the outside.
