stunning combination of terrific looks and sensational flight performance.  Manufactured from 

“EPOFLEXY” it is extremely robust, however, in the event of a “less than perfect” arrival, we supply a 

range of spares to get you flying again in the shortest time. It is capable of an impressive range of 

aerobatic manoeuvres to thrill the experienced pilot, but with reduced control throws it provides a solid
