Mini Vector…son of Vector!

Following the enormous success of our Vector III – now a classic we decided to go a step further yet back with the Vector Mini – or to give it a buzz name MINIVEC!

Designed to have all the plus points of its dad the vector III and none of the niggles, our designer Dr. James Hammond decided to go the whole hog and give this little whizzer a whole new look.

So what’s so special?

The wings and tail planes have been curved yet retain the classic Vector look, the fuselage is softened with a larger, more curvaceous fin and the ballast now sits in the wings. Basically the clean design, affordability and plain good looks make this a plane that anybody would want in their stable.

Performance?

 
Well for something that breaks down into a package that can easily be taken anywhere, the flight performance is simply stunning – period. Any aerobatic maneuver that is possible for a sailplane to perform is accomplished with ease, and unlike it dad, the Minivec will tumble if outrageous control movements are your bag.

This is simply an affordable bundle of fun with a cool new look that we hope will become as much of a classic as its dad.

Since the original sailplane version has been very well received by the discerning flying community, we felt justified in taking the next logical to extend its performance to allow our amp addicts to have a stir. So we re-designed the fuselage to allow for some “grunt in the front”!

Probably not intended as a very first electric sailplane, the Typhoon does offer sparkling performance, but is an easy fly when thermalling. For experienced flyers, the plane is very agile, goes where it is told and generally handles like a dream.

Able to fly in almost any conditions and equipped with a full house complement of ailerons, rudder, elevator and flaps, plus the electrics, the Typhoon can perform leisurely aerobatics or be made into a hair-raising, jaw-aching rocket by opening up the power, yet it will slow down to hand-catch speed for landings.

Rudder and Elevator control servos are located in a well just behind the wing leaving the front end completely open for electrics, battery, motor installation etc.

Made from CNC generated moulds, and supplied with a full kit of small parts, Typhoon is constructed to the highest standards of fit and finish.

Typhoon is a real all-rounder, yet it will fit on the Parcel shelf of most cars.
