Description
The ASPIRE X-tail and V-tail is the latest F3J offering from renowned
designer and pilot Lubos Pazderka, and his F3B counterpart Peter
Fusek. This team is famous for the Eclipse
V, Eraser, Eraser Extreme V-tail and X-tail, Fazer, Victor, and
now the ASPIRE.
Lubos Pazderka has done it again. Setting a new standard
in F3J thermal flying, the ASPIRE covers all the competitors needs: it is large,
ranges extremely well, can handle light lift, launches superbly
with speed,
and has incredible handling. The model is available in a V-tail
and X-tail 2.4 friendly fuse, and comes pre-wired ready
for installation with servo of your choice. Weighing in at 78 oz
(x-tail version) it has very low wing loading. Ballast tube
is pre-installed and very generous. The fit and finish is
excellent.
It has had very good success in the early F3J trials, often making
it to the fly offs. Lubos is one of the very few designers
who is an excellent pilot as well. He knows what he is after
when he decides to make a new design. The wing is clean with
premolded fairing's for all the linkages, and control horns installed. Generous radio compartment
volume makes installation a breeze.
The popularity of other models he manufacturers for other designers
in Europe makes the
Aspire difficult to obtain in the US. SkipMillerModels is proud
to be the exclusive
dealer for Lubos Pazderka designs in the US, so I am confident
that we will have the ASPIRE...but it is taking some time. We have
been representing his models for 10 years (since the 1st F3J World
Championships in England in1998). Someday
this fine model will land on our shores, and will be immediately
embraced into the competition circuit. After flight testing, I recommended
to Lubos that he rename the model "IMPRESSIVE" as it very
much is!
