The new Mini Delta V2 is designed for stable long duration 

flight at relatively slow speeds. While not being suitable for 
aerobatics, this airframe excels in its stability and straight 

tracking. Designed with micro FPV setups in mind, this 

airframe features two component bays (top and bottom) 
which give ample room for large batteries, multiple batteries 

and FPV gear.  
 

With a wingspan of just 46cm (18 inches), the Mini Delta is 
suitable for outdoor flight in calm conditions with no wind or 
indoor stadium flight in the hands of an experienced pilot.  

The two videos below cover the complete build process as 

set out in this manual. At stages throughout this manual 
there are links to the relevant position in the build videos.
