FT Charlie MKR2
THE FT CHARLIE WAS DESIGNED AND CREATED BY FT STEM STUDENTS TO SHOWCASE THE ENGINEERING AND DESIGN LEARNING STRAND OF OUR CURRICULUM. CLICK HERE FOR MORE INFO ABOUT MIDDLE SCHOOL CURRICULUM. PROCEEDS OF THIS PROJECT, ALONG WITH ALL THE STEM SERIES AIRCRAFT, WILL GO TOWARDS SUPPORTING SCHOOLS TAKE FLIGHT USING FT STEM.
The Charlie was designed to be a quick and easy to fly build, the slowest and least agile of the Triad series.
The FT Charlie is compatible with the FT Alpha and FT Bravo kits. Each airplane's wings are built to be removable from the fuselage, and can be swapped with any of the other Triad planes, giving the builder essentially 9 planes to choose from.
THE SWAPPING OF WINGS TAKES LESS THAN A MINUTE AND IS SUPPORTED BY RUBBER BANDS!
There is no need to re-calibrate the center of gravity on the aircraft after swapping, the CG remains the same no matter what combination you configure. This is great for the flight line and swapping with others, making it an enjoyable experience for all.
We want you to have an amazing experience both in building and flying. This kit comes with everything you need to complete the FT Bravo Aircraft. Push-rods, control horns, firewalls and all other items needed to make this airframe electronics ready are included in the kit. If you choose to purchase our Power Pack F V.2 and battery, balance, flight performance and assembly will be quick and easy.
