Fastest $1 Foamboard | BABY BUGATTI

by FliteTest | July 19, 2017 | (0) Posted in Projects

 

Have you seen this Baby Bugatti designed by Ben Harber?

 

 

Built with one piece of dollar foam board, this baby has an incredible amount of speed and flies with great agility.

 

 

Ben was inspired by Josh Orchard’s larger scale contra-rotating Bugatti—you’ll be seeing an episode on it soon!

 

 

What we love about projects like these is that the Flite Test community works together to make them they best they can be. At one point, Dan Sponholz reached out to Ben to get plans that would be available to anyone who would want to build them.

The camaraderie of the community, humbleness of each individual and passion for the hobby is what makes Flite Test what it is today!

Another great video of Flitefest 2017. Pity about the giant racing quad, but it happens. Once again a big thanks to TJ for streaming the show for those of us who couldn't be there, assignment writing help he done a fantastic job.
