News Release... our 48" kits are here!! |
|
Joe's 48" Juka with his unreal paint scheme. |
|
This is a 9mm foamie that comes with removable wings. You will have the choice of our Gen-X, YAK 54 and the JUKA. The kit includes a complete hardware package and basic vinyl graphics. |
|
We now offer four sizes of foamies, 28" Junior, our 38" kits and our New 48" BAF & 55" BigAss Foamies. The feedback we receive from our Team DW pilots has allowed us to produce the best flying foamies on the market. We also offer a "Combat" foamie and our new Biplane, the "SKUA". |

The Gen-X is
a pattern plane that allows you to fly a complete IMAC sequence
with the same precision as your competition plane. This will allow
you to get up to speed on the new 2008
IMAC Sequences in a
nearby park or at your local flying field. Our
Gen-X is now available in four sizes, the 28" Gen-X Junior, 38" Gen-X
and our new 48" BAF and the 55" BAF Gen-X.
"This style airframe offers an elegant style of smooth, graceful aerobatics. Turn up the rates and you have a 3D machine that will lock into a hover and torque roll with the best." |

The Yak
54 is a stable, predictable 3D performer capable of precision
sequences. This kit is
now available in four sizes, the 28" YAK Junior, 38" YAK
54, our new 48" BAF and the 55" BAF YAK.
"Most foamies fly good 3D. Some are even great at 3D. But I saw this foamie do something I had never seen another do. That is fly the unlimited sequence outdoors, it was incredible to watch. I even gave it a shot myself and I didn't do too bad, considering I only fly sportsman. This foamie snaps so clean it is just incredible, stops right where you want it. 3D is sweet with it as well."

The JUKA is an all out 3D monster capable of tight spins, fast rolling 3D maneuvers and a factor of excitement that just plain makes you want to hit all the stops on those gimbals. The Juka is now available in four sizes, 28" Juka Junior, 38" Juka and our new 48"BAF and the 55" BAF Juka.
The full scale JUKA is a creation from Lithuanian Unlimited Freestyle pilot Jurgis Kairys. His piloting skill is only matched with his engineering skill. He was asked to work with Sukhoi Design Bureau to help design the Sukhoi 26, 29 and 31 series of aircraft. Jurgis’s achievements’ are numerous but the one that really sticks with me is being the first to perform an upright harrier in a full scale plane, dubbed the “Cobra” maneuver in full scale aerobatics. |

The Skua Biplane design is based around the F3P indoor competition foamies with an outdoor airframe. It slows down to a crawl, with no wing rock, when you hit the throttle it tracks like a pattern plane. If your just getting into more complicated 3d flying, this plane can make you look really good. If your a lazy non rudder flyer, no worries it requires very little to no rudder input. The design allows for knife edge flight, rolling harriers and rolling circles need very little rudder input.
Specifications: Wing Span: 838mm (33") Length: 882mm (34.75") Wing Area: 480 sq. in (both wings) Weight: 13-16 ozs.
Note: The Skua is a Artic seabird, they are strong, acrobatic fliers. The word "Skua" comes from the Old Norse term for seagull.

55" BigAss Foamie Family (AUW 38-44oz, 450-600 watts, 3S 2250-3300 liPoly) These large foam airframes are unlike any foamie you have ever seen, they are constructed of strong 9mm Depron. The wings are remove and can support optional landing gear. The kit includes a complete hardware package and basic vinyl graphics. All control surfaces use our unique Torque Rod Hinge (TRH) system. This system distributes the stress along the entire control surface, and also adds an additional spar to the flight surface. The control arms are attached to a torque rod driving the entire control surface. The TRH system is very light, stiff and easy to install. Hinging is completed in minutes using foam safe CA or quick set epoxy, no hinge tape required. |

48" BigAss Foamie Family (AUW 28-34oz, 350-400 watts, 3S 2100 LiPoly)
This 48"
BAF project started from an idea of trying to get
better runtime performance out of the BAF electric system
while running a common 3 cell 2100mAh battery. Joe Stutzman, from Team DW, was looking for
a 26-27oz,
350-400 watt foamie that could run on a 2100 mAh LiPoly with a 10-12
minute flight time,
much like our 38" foamies. We chose his favorite foamie, the Juka, in
re-scaling the 38" Juka to a 55" BAF, the fuse height was reduced in size.
When we re-scaled our 38" Juka to a 48" Juka we kept all
proportions the same, in essence giving our 48"
more side area in relation to the wing compared to
our 55" BAF kits. This new design displays great
knife edge flight, solid hover and
it's a torque rolling monster. This is a 9mm foamie that comes with removable wings. You will have the choice of our Gen-X, YAK 54 and the JUKA. The kit includes a complete hardware package and basic vinyl graphics.
