Fast and Furious
Open up the throttle to give rocket like speed to the Speedsters. Can achieve faster speeds than the popular Multiplex Funjet. Do crazy loops and fulfill your desire for the need for speed with the VT-Speedster. and VT-Speedster.Pro
High Performance airfoil.
Flying wings require special ‘Reflex’ airfoils to give them performance. We have chosen the best for you – CNC cut for you with precision. High efficiency gives you lots of endurance and range.
Easy to launch and

slow to land

We have worked upon tweaking the low speed performance of the VT-Speedster and VT-Speedster pro to let you launch and land easily. A gentle toss and up she will go. Floats and slows like a trainer to land. Our videos will show you how to launch the Speedster like a Pro in a matter of few minutes.

The Speedsters can take up some bashing. Once built properly, and laminated the plane is super durable and is really a take anywhere-fly anywhere bird. No TLC needed here. Hard landing ? Rebend the skids back in shape and you are good to go. The thick airfoil makes the wing strong and also gives you lots of space to embed your favorite OSDs, autopilots and other gizmos.

Well stocked cheap replacement parts
Broke a part of the plane ? No worries. Just order a spare ! and yes its super cheap. Replace skids, winglets, motor mounts or camera mounts at a fraction of the cost.
Shipped for Indian conditions
We know Indian couriers and their handling very well. The Speedsters are packed specially so you will receive the kit in the way we wanted you to get them. Wings are shipped in their extra thick wing beds, which double up as jigs to help you build without warping.
Uses High density EPS foam and Coroplast
High density EPS foam ensures your plane is light, yet strong enough. Laminating the wing adds tremendous strength by acting as a ‘stressed skin’. It also makes it less vulnerable to hangar rash and small dents and nicks. Coroplast is light, and resilient to crashes. It will bend, but will not break.
Low wing loading
Know the most important factor that determines how good a model airplane flies ? Wing loading. The lighter the wing loading, the better the model flies. We boast of a wing loading as low as 10 oz/ft2 . Perhaps the best you can get. Light wing loading gives a wide speed envelope which makes the VT-Speedster float like a trainer on landings
Specially designed Skids and winglets
Specially designed skids and winglets absorb all the impact on landings and save the wing from damage. The skids double up as protector for cameras and FPV gear up front. Winglets provide lateral stability. Hard landing ? No problem. Just bend the winglet back in shape. Easy to launch and and, you no longer need a runway to fly!
Detailed instructional manual and videos
Tired of hard to read, self-assuming Chinese manuals ? VT-Speedster and VT-Speedster Pro comes with a detailed illustrated instructional manual, and videos in clear English, showing the build. Videos will make you learn to launch the VT-Speedster reliably and also show you how to mount
Ultra Low cost
Unbelievably low cost makes the Speedsters super affordable to all RC aeromodellors and FPV enthusiasts. Our goal of making the hobby popular has ever been more important enough. We went to all lengths to source local materials to keep the costs low, but never at the expense of flying characteristics. Go ahead and enjoy the goodness of RC and FPV without breaking the bank.
Kit includes extras
When putting together the kit, we kept ‘You’ in mind. Tapes, adhesives,battery straps, even sandpaper, and colored tapes are included in our kit. We know how tough it can be to go hunting for small stuff in our local markets. So we put it all in there. Even our electronics package includes heat shrink tubes and connectors. All you need is some basic tools, and a clear flat workbench to build.
