We clocked the RocHobby Swift at 85mph using a pocket radar only to find out later we were using an old LiPo with high IR during the test! Not only is this plane fast but it also is very well mannered and very aerobatic. The wings and fuselage are a single piece of EPO foam with carbon rods molded in for maximum strength and durability. In addition the nose cone is a magnetic break away design, the servo pushrods are top mounted for maximum protection during belly landing, and there is a skid plate on the bottom to protect the fuse and the rear mounted prop. We are not sure if a plane exists that is more fun to fly! The plane is very simple to assemble so you can be in the air in about 30 minutes.
