Overview
The E-flite Carbon-Z Scimitar is true satisfaction
for the RC pilot who desires flight performance and adrenaline pounding
excitement previously thought impossible from a conventional aircraft
platform. The fantasy-scale Carbon-Z Scimitar, designed by world
aerobatic champion Quique Somenzini, bursts open the performance
envelope with an evolutionary tailless swept wing. At the heart of the
advanced Carbon-Z Scimitar is a specially tuned Q-Power system harnessed
inside a revolutionary single-axis, vectored-thrust propeller system.
In combination with the precision of carbon rod hinged elevons and twin
rudders, a refreshing level of maneuverability can be explored after
less than an evening’s worth of assembly time.
