The Padawan micro pitcheron aerobat
Erik R. gave the head’s up on a new experiment by Pierre Rondel called the Padawan. It’s a tiny EPP pitcheron for aerobatics, using an airfoil designed for the purpose by Thierry Platon. It’s a brilliant solution to the challenge of building a small, light and durable VTPR aircraft… using only two servos and minimal linkages will really keep the weight down.
