Default QUIQUE'S NEW ELECTRIC TOUCAN GOTTA CHECK IT OUT

http://www.turbinetoucan.com/clubtoucan/rc-2.php Did you guys no the Toucan is based on a pitts model 12!
Aerobatics & Unusual Attitudes Introduced with GREAT success!!
Friday, August 3, 2007, 09:24 PM
Exciting news from the Toucan Team; we have slowly started introducing aerobatics/unusual attitudes into our test regime. The airplane saw extreme angle of attack attitudes (75%+ deck angle) at very slow speeds. We then brought in the power and was able to accelerate out of high alpha to between 3500-4000fpm maintaining the same deck angle. This is all in an effort to work into hovering and accelerating out of the vertical, so we are on track.

HI Brian,
I am sorry but we are not taking deposit or making a list yet as it is a bit early yet. We will have this airplane for 08 flying season. By the end of the year we will start to take names.
Thank you for your interested.
Best regards.
Quique
