Jump Jet just got smaller!
Flying Saucer is a new model from Snelflight which offers everyone
a chance to try genuine 3-axis control hovering flight in the
smallest of spaces.
At just 19cm in diameter it is truly miniature, yet it has
four separate motors and the same computer gyro system as Jump
Jet.
These give the Saucer fully proportional controls just like
a hobby grade model helicopter. However Saucer's robust aerodynamically
designed foam body gives it "self righting" stability, and protects
the spinning propellers from damage.
The controls are quite docile, yet the Saucer can be flown
with speed and agility. It is an ideal aircraft for a beginner
wishing to learn to fly a model helicopter. Unlike super-stable
coaxial helicopters which "hover themselves" but which have
limited manoeuvrability and teach very little, Saucer rewards
effort and practice with plenty of flying potential.
