I can promise you this model will be the star of any flying field. It actually flies really well for its size and its weight. At the heart of this model, it is a traditional delta wing, so it has great stall characteristics and flies very easily, Bank and yank style. It’s an easy build easy print and flies great.
Never buy any 3d printed designs without seeing multiple uncut flight with landings!

Pre flight
The center of gravity is marked by the two bumps under the wing. Before you fly this space shuttle, please secure all motor wires coming through the fuselage back to where the Motors live. This is critical as I sliced two motor wires because I did not secure the motor wires and keep them from sliding back under acceleration into the fanblades. If you can keep this from happening, this model will last a long time.
3D printing settings
