Taking your flying hobby too seriously?
Pattern and 3D flying getting a touch mundane?
FREDe and I couldn't agree more.

While I enjoy working through an aerobatic sequence the monotonous routine of flying the "box" begins to feel a bit more like...  well... work!  Finish off your day's aerobatic workout, like I do, by taking a FREDe™ 'round the weed patch and recapture that feeling you had when you first kissed a girl. 

Background:

FREDe™ is a ToonSCALE™ version of Eric Clutton's F.R.E.D. (Functional Runabout Experimental Design) FREDe's airframe frames quickly thanks to precision laser cut components and simple yet thoughtful engineering. This rugged design features our shock mounted landing gear system and soaks up all the bumps and bruises a beginner can deliver. FREDe™ dishes out stable predictable performance with pro pleasing "fun" on tap allowing for all rudder, elevator, throttle aerobatics including flat and falling leaf flat spins! FREDe™ - because flying should be FUN!

Features:
  • Fun! (Remember what that feels like?)
  • Unlimited vertical on a brushed 350 motor (when built to 12 oz flying weight)
  • Interlocking Laser Engineered™design frames in two evenings or less
  • Comprehensive hardware package includes quality Du-Bro RC hardware
  • Includes limited edition Kris Cartwright designed "FRED" profile pilot.
  • Designed for Trexler #6 balloon wheels (purchased separately)
  • Innovative shock absorbing landing gear smooths out those rough "arrivals"
  • Thick under-cambered airfoil claws at the air refusing to let go!  FREDe™ flies like a home sick angel!
  • Well mannered, predictable, and positively stable flight performance
  • Capable of Rudder-Elevator-Throttle aerobatics, including: spins, snaps, stall turns, wing-overs, etc..
Requires:

Basic modeling tools including #11 razor blades and knife, medium and thin CA adhesives, sanding block.
