FT Sportster Value Bundle
Our hope is that the FT Sportster will be fun for both the beginner looking to get into 4-channel flight, and also the advanced pilot looking to reenact all the classic barnstormer maneuvers from the past. This plane does not like to fly alone. Our hope is that this will be a design that friends build and fly together.
The FT Sportster is designed to fly on our C motor (or 2215) coupled with a 2200 3-cell battery gives great performance and a nice flight time. The outer wing tips of the FT Sportster are under compared so slow speed and stability are not compromised. This plane is able to turn on a dime and can handle many classic and advanced maneuvers. Remove the landing gear for an easy hand launch or find some smooth grass and do lazy touch and go's.
