E-foamies Micro Fatty Series

Stumbled over this tonight @ e-foamies.com , couldn't find a thread about it so here it is

Workbench - EFM Skunkworks

Micro Fatty Series



Videos

*Indoors #1


Information

The "Micro Fatty" Series planes are designed mainly for indoor, but can also be flown outside in little or no wind conditions. They sport a fat molded depron fuse as well as 3mm depron wings and tail surfaces.

The "Micro Fatty" Series will consist of the following planes

* Lil'Stinker (pictured)
* Micro Edge
* Micro Extra
* Micro Katana

These will be the "got to have" foamies for this years indoor season!

Specifications
Wing Span: 26"
AUW: 5.5-8oz

Flight Characteristics
Each Micro Fatty has different flight characteristics. The lil'Stinker does awesome rolling circles and KE. The Micro Edge flat spins on a dime and harriers great. The Micro Extra and Katana tumble awesome.

Updates
Production has begun!
New Indoor Video footage - click here.

Estimated Release Date: Oct 1st
Estimated Kit Price: $69.95

I'm absolutely loving the full fuse with a minimum AUW of 5.5oz, thats just gonna be crazy!!

My questions: Is the October 1st date for all 4 planes?

Do you have any pics of the edge/extra/katana?

Need any testers?

Thanks!

Someone actually reads our website!

Yes all 4 of these are currently in production. I will take a picture of the Micro Edge today. It looks awesome!

These were designed more for fun-fly aerobatic than 3D, but ended up 3Ding pretty well. With a smaller wing span and higher wing loading than your average shock-flyer they become extreamly agile and keep you on your toes! Super fun planes that don't look like anything else out there.

It sure would be nice if that edge 540 came in a 36" version. AUW weight around 12 to 14 ounces so you could use a T.P. 1320 batt. I would buy one.........
