Hello dear website visitors. First of all happy upcoming holidays! Hope your indoor flying season already started and you enjoy F3P flying again. I start flying indoor about 7 years ago, back then it was new interesting way to keep "hands warm" in break between F3A summer flying. And over few years it become main class for me. In first years of F3P (indoor aerobatic) flying, i was pleasantly surprised (each spring when i start new F3A flying season) how much my skills as pilot grow during winter thanks to hours i spend in hall training for F3P competitions. So for all F3A and IMAC pilots i suggest to try this interesting growing indoor aerobatic class. It will be challenging and not so easy as might think, specially for less advanced pilots that are not used to use allot of rudder for corrections when flying outside.
If you are looking for F3P competition ore just training plane, i have perfect solution for you. My design Symmetric is finally released as kit. I have it in stock and ready to send world wide just for 65eur + shipping. To order yours write me email to:
i will be more than happy to help you. We work hard to deliver you top quality and best flying performance. To save your time and introduce Symmetric to you, i made special 13 minutes long instructional video about Symmetric, please take a look, you will find all details behind my competition Symmetric:
Kit is milled and printed with awesome bright color scheme. On most of F3P kits you will find just very simple, and boring looking color scheme. We did our best to avoid same situation and i believe with photo printing we reach great result. Plane is highly visible in flight.
In Sweden, Finland, Denmark my kits are available from my partner www.autopartner.se
SYMMETRIC HISTORY
Symmetric was designed for ETOC competition in USA. Tought sequences require agile plane that could do snap rolls and spins. Now in Europe we have quite difficult sequences that require agile plane, Symmetric handle task very well. I already have good video of preliminary sequence, and in near future i will make new one of Final sequence. New final sequence have allot of maneuvers on knife edge. This naturally require plane with good KE flying characterystics, symmetrical fuselage assure there is minimum mixing required for perfect KE flight. Rudder is very powerful on this plane, thanks to several things: SFG position, quite short distance from tail to wings and big side area.
Here is first Symmetric with flying weight 145g. Now this plane is in Mexico, flown by my friend Manual Santos :
From L to R, Mike McConvile, QueQue Somenzini, Me, Dave Lockhart, Nick Maxwel, ETOC 2010, USA.
