FT Boomin' Flerken
The FT Boomin' Flerken is our most advanced Flerken design to date. The Boomin' Flerken has the greatest speed range out of any of our previous Flerken designs. The forward swept wings, combined with a large horizontal tail and twin motor configuration, give the Boomin Flerken the unique ability to transition from fast forward flight into slow and stable high alpha. Additionally, the inline twin motor and boom design provides incredibly smooth flight with no torque or yaw shimmy which is typical on many other FPV wings. Utilizing the Boomin' Flerken's differential thrust gives the pilot the ability to perform pinwheels and flat spins, and also easily navigate on the ground. The optional landing gear kit also allows for takeoffs and landings on both grass and hard surfaces.

Love The Flerken
It was a great build and the maiden was great, even though mine ended with a crash.. Be sure to watch your battery levels. I will order another and use my electronics for the next build. Great plane. Another note be sure to reinforce the spare as the wing connects to the body of the plane as well. Overall all great design and videos make it easy to build. I love this plane and I will keep building them to always have one flyable in my hanger. Thanks FliteTest!

Excellent Aircraft
I've been having soo much fun flying this machine that when it met its demise (I was trying to hover it got inverted and crashed into the ground) That I'm ordering another one. Totally worth the money. People are amazed at its flight envelope, It can fly sooo slow and also take off like a rocket. If you get it make sure you set up differential thrust thats what makes it really fun to fly. Takes a little time to build but at the end you have a great aircraft. Flite Test outdid themselves with this one.
