Lol, don't think it's wide enough to sit on the launcher rails!

Hand throw only me thinks ;)

Should be easy enough to throw anyways.

Flyn, that's looks mint!!!

I am fast becoming a fan of these small wings. Be warned though!!!! They do make you fly like a nutter on a joy ride ha ha!!!

Launching is easy, hold on leading edge and lob it. Works everytime for me.

They do like big tall buildings though so watch out!!!
Loads of cool FPV stuff on our Facebook Group, like it today:

Cheers matey,

Yeah I know what you mean, can't wait to fly it...  & yes I do intend to fly it like I stole it ;)

I got a hk tek sumo that needs the same type of wing tip lob.

I'll keep an eye out for those buildings mate, just gotta make sure they don't jump out at me huh.
