The Flite Test Versa Wing is an all around performer that will meet the needs of almost any pilot. Whether it's combat, FPV, or even a delta winged trainer with gentle stall characteristics, the FT Versa Wing does it all with ease. Use a swappable power pod to fly in a tractor configuration (propeller at the front of the wing), or install the optional FT Elements Simple Firewall to operate the FT Versa Wing in a pusher configuration (propeller mounted on the back of the wing).
Power Pack Compatibility: Flite Test Airplanes are all designed around the use of various "Power Packs" which include an inexpensive Motor, ESC, Servo, & accessory package to complete each aircraft!
Tech Notes:
Simple Element Firewall is sold separately for PUSHER configurations!
Electronic Pack "C" is to ONLY be used in the swappable tractor configuration. To use these electronics in a pusher configuration, you will need a smaller prop.

Flite Test Versa Wing Speed Build Electric Airplane Kit (965mm)
This was my first foam board build. It went well, but of course there are things I could have done better. One of those would have been to have a larger capacity hot glue gun. Next time will be better. I went online to find a tutorial on how to hand launch a flying wing. I found a great you tube video from a guy at Video Areal Systems. It worked perfectly. The maiden went off without a hitch. If it wasn’t for the rain, i would have gotten more flight in. As it was I just put in a 3 minute maiden and had to pack up in the rain.
Great job on the design, manufacture, and build video for the plane. It is a very fun plane to fly. I’m anxious to expand the flight envelope and start playing a little harder with it.

Man this thing is amazing. On a b-pack this thing will just cruise around and do patterns battery after battery. If u want to have a reliable cruising plane to take to the field every time you go, this is the wing for you (on a b-pack or C-pack motor). I can't tell what this was like to build seeing as it was given to me at the 2018 flitefest Ohio. The only thing I would steer clear of is using a slow fly prop on this seeing as my versa was hard to keep in the air before I switched to a higher pitched prop. I did recently switch to the suggested C pack motor and man does thing fly great. I see why it was recommended for a C. This thing will do double rolls, vertical (for a few seconds), low passes, but it will not do loops for me. This thing can for sure pull a streamer good and the 30 amp only gets a little warm. This is one plane I cannot live without. If I have to go to the field and only grab one plane and go, this is the one. It has been through a flitefest and made it through almost a year of general club flying. Great job Josh on this design and happy flying everyone.

Brought two of them for a bit of fun, didn't realise how well they fly, now they come with me every fly day, and I'll confess to ordering three more so my mates can play combat, I power them with cheep racestar 2212 1800kv Motors and 7x5 props and 2200 3s battery's, vertical climb no problem,great wings and easy to fly. Well done flight test...
