Default FlyingGiants Foamy - First Grope

Aaaaaw yeah! Our whirlwind 2006 road trip extravaganza has come to a close, and it's time to kick off the electric flying season BIG here at The Giants, and this is just the start! Lay your eyes on this puppy! What you are seeing in this video is Member Adam Bry wringing out the much anticipated FG Foamy!

Exclusively created for The Flying Giants by the legendary designer Jason Fabretti, this little sucker is off the hook! The prototype was unveiled at the 2006 Tucson Shootout, and brings the electrophile the best of both precision, and all out stick bangin' performance.

The final design with our exciting new scheme will be availaible shortly. Looking for the latest news and information about electric flight? Keep an eye on The Leading Edge, and be sure to visit our newly expanded e-Giants discussion area to get your yap on with some of most friendly, and knowledgably folks in the hobby! Check it out today!

Any chance of uploading the preview video some place where us dial-up users can download it? We can't watch streaming videos like normal people.

Sa-weeeeeet! Just last week I discovered how much fun the 'fly anywhere' notion of a foamy is, so this is awesome timing. ..and I'm diggin' the color/trim schemes, nice work.
