The Rapid Pusher Jet version is a version of the popular Rapids.
The Rapid (Jet version) is one of the fastest models in the EPP-400 engines class. Once it is in motion, even with a Speed 400 in combination with a lipo battery 90 degree climbs almost to the limits of vision are possible, but the prerequisite is being built as light as possible. With a brushless motor it comes to real pylon feeling. The Rapid is due to its high crash resistance ideally suited as a pylon trainer.
The hull is already provided with the Servo-/Motor slots. It is crash-proof by using high-quality materials (white extruded EPP, carbon fiber rods), very light and extremely. Nevertheless, this flight model is for high speeds and for experienced model aircraft pilots with fast reflexes.
The Rapid Jet version has the following advantages over front-wheel drive version: - Engine is rear-wheel drive by many times better protected - Prop fracture risk is very low - Straight through precise slats - More space for batteries
