Let's see your video doing that with the 60% Edge. Should be cool to watch.

Hello Guys, I am Benoit Dierickx from Belgium.
I am really happy that you enjoy my flights.
I am very honoured by your nice comments. I thank you.

My freestyle plane is the "Fusion". Yes indeed, it got a fuselage, an airfoil and thrust vectoring.

Cheers,
Benoit

hi Benoit

awesome flying keep it up
love your manuvers.

thrust vectoring what does it meen ? and can we see some picturs of it.

Greeting oh great one. Fantastic inspiring flying Benoit, just wonderful.
Tell us about your plane and setup if you would, motor, prop, batteries etc etc.
What about the design, have you published it?
What about trimming... I would imagine that the airframe is a great deal more ridgid and thus stable because of the aerofoil section and the box body instead of the typical flat foam wing and fuz.
Thats something that interests me greatly as my foam flaties need constant retriming and are some what difficult to do anying near as precise as what you're achieving.
You really have opened up the possiblity and shown us pattern fliers that we can find an airframe that lets us fly the type of style we like with a foamy.
Up until now we just been messing around with them.
Now dought you will have seen that at the E-TOC!

About the fusion set-up: 97cm wing span, lenght 105cm , weight 230/250gr with 3x li-poly Kokam 340 to 640, motor AXI 2204/54 GOLD LINE, prop GWS 9/5, Phoenix 10 controler from Castel Creation, 6x waypoint (6g) servos ( 2x ailerons, 1 elevator, 1 rudder, 1 thrust vectoring) + 1x 4gr servo for streamers), GWS6ch 72Mhz receiver (modified to 7Ch)

Indeed, the plane is very solid and precise on the trajectory if you can hold some speed. Nevertheless, for F3P, a biplane like my Mystic (Donut's model) will be more efficient.
But the Fusion is more reactive for freestyle, especially with the Thrust vectoring system which give a terrific yaw control. The motor is on an axe (or gimbal), and it's just mixed with the rudder. It's difficult to make a kit with such an airfoil. The plane is fast and fragile. But we are working on it. May be a 10% smaller plane will be better. Stay tuned!

Hello Benoit,

Great flying !!

Is the Fusion plane available ( in Belgium ) or is it your own design ?

cheers,

haha, i had to bring this one back. toothpick and broke n bummin got owned by the great mr dierickx so hard that i seriously fell out of my chair.i havent laughed so hard i cried in a long, long time.
its very cool of him to be so open about his setup, most pilots of his caliber wouldnt share their secerets.very,very cool.i flew glow powered balsa aileron trainers and tame sport planes for 15 years before i saw him fly.

btoby

yup!
Top notch flying, a level i could only dream about. cant even imagine how many planes i would sacrifice to try to learn those moves!

If you like flying in previous posts what are you going to say about this?
How about that take off? It is not that difficult, but very impressive!
