But from what I gather you have other designs that build even faster? Where do I go to get these? Spadworld? Do you have a particular type of design in mind that is derivative of the Gremlin (for when my PVC inevitably cracks )?
cheers, /S.
The tufFlight predator is basically a gremlin made from EPP with the wing flipped backwards for easier balance. I wouldn't say it's "derived" directly from a gremlin, because there're 5 years of technology development with EPP, lexan, UHMW and other materials now widely used in modern combat designs.
They don't build faster, and the materials employed dictate they are certaily not as cheap, but durabilty is vastly improved. Flying will be about the same if the weights are the same.
Keep your Gremlin light, and you'll smile every time it's in the air.
cheers,
